     JMC’s journey began with Robert J. Butler’s ambition to build a future in the construction industry. After being discharged from the Army, Bob followed in the footsteps of his father and grandfather, entering the mechanical contracting trade. He started as an apprentice with Pipefitters Local Union 274 in Parsippany, NJ, where he quickly honed the skills that would define his career. As a journeyman, Bob became known for his efficiency and commitment to excellence, which led to rapid advancement through the ranks—first as a foreman, then general foreman, and ultimately as a field supervisor. Motivated by a lifelong dream to start his own business, Bob founded Jersey Mechanical Contractors, Inc. in 1986, with just a phone and a desk in East Rutherford, NJ. Over the next 35 years, the company has grown to become one of the most respected mechanical contractors in New Jersey.

     While Bob was building the business, his son, Robert, was gaining hands-on experience in the industry. During summers, Robert worked at Jersey Mechanical, digging ditches, running bids, and learning the trade from the ground up. In addition to his practical experience, Robert earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of South Carolina in 1995. He joined the company full-time in 1996, bringing fresh ideas and a new perspective. A member of Plumbers Local 14 and holder of a New Jersey Master Plumber’s License, Robert now oversees the company’s operations.

     In 1998, Jersey Mechanical Contractors expanded to Farmingdale, NJ. That same year, Bob’s daughter, Krista, took on the role of controller and office manager, bringing essential administrative expertise to ensure the company could continue to execute projects efficiently and professionally.

  Today, JMC remains a family company and an industry leader in New Jersey, dedicated to completing every project with the same commitment to excellence that has defined the company since its inception. We work hard every day to uphold our commitment to building a better New Jersey while demonstrating our passion for improving the strong and diverse communities that make up the Garden State.
