A Legacy of Hard Work, Integrity, and Generational Knowledge

Wallace Brothers Contracting Group is more than just a name in the construction and demolition industry—it’s a family legacy. Raised on job sites and mentored by their father, a veteran with over 50 years in the trade, the Wallace brothers have transformed decades of hands-on experience into a respected, full-service contracting business based in Rutherford, NJ.


From a young age, the brothers learned the ropes by working side-by-side with their father. He passed down more than just technical knowledge—he instilled in them the importance of doing every job right, maintaining the highest safety standards, and treating every client with respect. Today, those lessons remain the foundation of everything Wallace Brothers does.

A Hands-On History That Built Our Reputation

As teenagers, the Wallace brothers were already navigating job sites, assisting with tasks ranging from concrete removal and site prep to structural teardown and debris hauling. Over time, that early exposure developed into professional-grade skills across a wide range of construction disciplines.


From selective interior demolitions to full-scale commercial tear-downs and historic building restorations, every project is approached with the same level of care, planning, and workmanship.

Honoring a Father’s Legacy Through Work That Lasts

After the passing of their father, the brothers made it their mission to keep the family business not only running—but growing. Today, Wallace Brothers Contracting Group is recognized throughout Bergen County and beyond for its consistent delivery, commitment to safety, and reliable timelines.


Whether demolishing an aging structure, clearing land for new development, or restoring an industrial building to code, the Wallace team brings unmatched dedication and expertise to every job.
