Community Impact
Building more than structures.
Construction is about those who live and work in the spaces we create. As a family-owned business rooted in Erie, Pa., we know that every project we complete shapes more than a skyline — it shapes the future of our community.
Local first, always
We’re committed to building up Erie, prioritizing local subcontractors and local vendors on every project. From sourcing materials to hiring crews, keeping it local means fewer delays, lower costs, and a stronger regional economy. When BSI wins, Erie wins.

Supporting what matters
From youth sports fields to nonprofit renovations, we believe that real community impact happens off the clock. BSI proudly supports and sponsors local initiatives such as:
- Barber Beast on the Bay (Build Team + Sponsorship)
- Toys for Tots
- PA Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Home Raffle
- St. Martin Center
- Shriners Children’s Erie
- Make-A-Wish Foundation
- Various veterans initiatives and outreach
Giving time, not just resources
BSI team members serve on nonprofit boards, volunteer at local events, and mentor the next generation of builders. Whether it’s assembling community race obstacles, helping with parish repairs, or leading a jobsite tour for students, we know giving back starts by showing up.

Built here. For here.
We’re proud of the buildings we’ve constructed across Erie, from dorms to dealerships, churches to community centers. But we’re even prouder of the relationships we’ve built while doing it, because we know we’re making our community stronger.
