Building Excellence, One Project at a Time
Incorporated in the State of Maryland in 1976 under the name Maizel Construction Inc., W&M Contracting, LLC has a long and storied history of success in the Greater Washington, DC area. For nearly five decades, the company has been a trusted name in tenant improvements, historic building rehabilitation, and restorations, dedicated to delivering top-quality craftsmanship and unwavering client satisfaction. Founded by Marvin Maizel, the company built its reputation on a commitment to excellence and a personal touch, values that continue to define W&M Contracting today.
After nearly forty years of dedicated service, Marvin Maizel retired in 2012, passing the torch to his eldest son, Michael Maizel, who had been working alongside him for several decades. Michael, in turn, collaborated with his longtime business partner, Michael Watson, to continue the legacy of Maizel Construction, expanding its reach and services under the newly formed W & M Contracting.
This dynamic duo brings a wealth of experience and expertise to every project, ensuring that the tradition of quality and customer commitment remains at the forefront of all their endeavors. Together, they strive to build upon the strong foundation established by Marvin, looking towards a future filled with innovative construction solutions and continued success.
A Focus on Community
Beyond their dedication to delivering exceptional construction services, Marvin Maizel's son and his team at W&M Contracting embrace a deep sense of community involvement. They are proud members of both the DCBIA and the AIA, actively engaging with industry colleagues and contributing to the growth of the construction sector.
Furthermore, the company actively supports various local charities and causes, demonstrating their commitment to making a positive impact beyond the realm of construction. Whether it's participating in Adopt a Road initiatives in Montgomery County or lending their time and resources to the Christmas in April program, W&M Contracting consistently demonstrates their commitment to giving back.
