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.

Local first, always

“There’s a sense of pride when you walk downtown and see how much we’ve built — not just buildings, but momentum.”
Matt Hodinko Director of Field Operations

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.

Giving time, not just resources

“We’ve been blessed with good work, good people, and good clients. Giving back is how we say thank you.”
Tim Schaaf President

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.
