Nielsen Builders has a long history of commercial construction throughout Virginia. For over 100 years, founder Joseph Nielsen and his successors have taken great pride in creating stunning structures. Today we are 100% Employee-Owned.
Joseph Nielsen founded J. Nielsen & Co. in 1908. In 1917, he moved to Harrisonburg from Leesburg. In 1924, Mr. Nielsen acquired the Harrisonburg building firm W.M. Bucher and Son, and renamed his company Nielsen Construction Company. The company was incorporated in 1951. Other significant milestones include becoming Nielsen Builders in 1996, opening an office in Charlottesville in 2003 and changing ownership to an ESOP in 2008.
Employing over 80 people, the company generates more than one hundred million dollars of project revenue each year. The company offers a broad range of project delivery systems from program management, construction management, and general contracting to design-build, and consulting services.
Clients include schools and universities, hospitals, and long term care facilities. Nielsen is recognized as a leader in the construction industry because of its innovative construction techniques and product development. Commitment to quality assurance is based on responsible craftsmanship, leadership, innovation, safety awareness, and employee satisfaction. Nielsen is dedicated to always delivering the best by guaranteeing a total quality product to every client.

We didn't know we would have help flipping and serving the bacon when we invited Jim Sacco to join us for Pancakes & Bacon this morning but that was a bonus! We kicked off our annual Employee Campaign this month and to celebrate, for a $5 donation to United Way of Harrisonburg and Rockingham County employees could snag a plate of pancakes and Jim's crispy bacon. What a treat to have pancakes, bacon, Jim on the griddle and United Way in our community doing great work!

We're glad Stephen Howard was able to attend the Virginia School Boards Association (VSBA) Annual Conference this week and represent the special work we get to do!
One of the things I love about working at Nielsen is that we work in, and build the buildings that directly effect the people I care about.
