Waters Construction Boasts 50-Plus Years, Father/Son Joint Ownership By Jay adams CEG CORRESPONDENT

These Waters have churned for more than half a century. These Waters have risen above the standard level on job after job after job since 1960, and even before their incorporation. These Waters are worth their salt. Waters Construction, Bridgeport, Conn., was built up by a man who started his labor there at age 19 and was running the place by 20. The bustling construction company, which celebrated 50 years officially in 2010 (although it probably started a decade before that), has worked on some of the most visible projects throughout Connecticut while it continues to thrive on its long-standing reputation. A driveway contractor named Al Waters founded the company in New Milford, Conn. Waters ran it for about a decade until a retired New Jersey contractor named Web Kay bought it. Waters Construction crews at work on the Howard Avenue bridge. Waters employs about 75 to 85 workers at peak season and has several divi“My father, Terrence B.

Given that my father was already under the window of his office,” said Waters President running the company, he officially appointed him as Smith. “This gave the appearance that Waters had more equipment than it really had.

Even though I have small driveway contractor with, maybe, 10 employees, it six brothers and sisters, and some worked for the company was very undercapitalized,” said Mario Smith. To secure a much-needed bank loan, Terrence Smith did a at one point in their lives, none were interested in making the very smart thing with his equipment — making the best use company their career (my father is a little bit demanding),” said the younger partner. “I began purchasing 10 percent of of it without spending a penny on fuel, labor or supplies. “It was time to arrange for a loan from a local bank.

the company in 2004, and purchased 40 percent in 2008.” Waters maintains an office in New Milford, but its headquarters is in Bridgeport. Smith, like his father, started working for the company as a teen more than a quarter century ago. A mover and shaker, he took on as much, if not more, than

his father did at a similar age. “I started to work for the company in 1985. I had agreed to work for my father in the summer of 1985 only. By 1986, I was in charge of the work in Fairfield County and had started to build up my own clientele,” said Smith. “The first few years were a bit rough between my father and me, so we decided that it would be better for both of us if I had my own

office.” Smith opened up a one-man office in Norwalk, Conn. in 1988. “Eventually that office grew, and my clientele grew, and the area that I operated in expanded eastward. In 1991, I moved my operation to Bridgeport. Eventually, our work also expanded westward toward New York. I opened an office in Port Chester, N.Y., in 1998, which I then moved to Brewster, N.Y., in 2000,” he added. “At the end of 2003, I closed the office in New York, given the problems with insurance coverage and its issues regarding general liability claims for what should be pure workers’ compensation claims. The work in Westchester County New York was not worth the effort.” A Road Map of Change The company has traveled in many directions in the past half-century of splendid achievement. Here is its road map of change: In the 1960s, Waters was a paving contractor and had a sand and gravel operation in Brookfield. As the company increased its revenues in the early 70s, it started as a general contractor in DOT roadwork, then expanded into sewer work and finally, into building construction by the mid-70s. “The recession of 1980-81 was difficult in Connecticut, so my father decided to shrink the company, and by 1983, he had wound down the building work. By 1985, he essentially mothballed the heavy/highway work. I started working in the summers in 1978. Prior to that, I had grown up in Italy and moved to the U.S. in 1977, I was adopted by my father in 1978,” said Smith. “In 1985, after graduating from The University of Virginia in Charlottesville, I made a deal with my father to work as a superintendent on several state paving projects for that summer only. I never left. “By 1989, I restarted our Heavy/Highway division with a $2.1 million project on Route 15 in Fairfield. The number of projects increased in size and complexity. By the mid-90s, we were usually running two large highway projects concurrently, the paving division flourished and had several smaller projects going,” he added. ‘Toward the end of the 1990s, we saw some of the federal highway funding shrink, so the company started bidding and building site work as a see WATERS page 12
