About Us

The history behind Rise Construction, a family owned business for nearly 40 years.

The Rise Story

Founded in 1986 by Bill O’Brien in Northeastern Pennsylvania, Rise Construction began with a focus on steel erection services and selling metal building systems. What started out as a vision became a reality as Rise grew to becoming a trusted partner in the regional construction industry.

Our Partnership with Chief Buildings

In the early days of Rise Construction, Bill O’Brien recognized that delivering high-quality metal building systems required a trusted partner. That’s when he began the nearly 40-year partnership with Chief Buildings, a company that shared his dedication to quality and innovation.

This enduring partnership has been crucial to our success. With Chief Buildings' cutting-edge designs and our construction expertise, we’ve been able to provide clients with durable, high-performance metal building solutions. Together, for almost four decades, we’ve helped shape the regional construction landscape, delivering projects that consistently meet and exceed expectations.
