United Brothers Pro Construction Corp was founded in 2014 in the Bronx by Leutrim Demaj with a clear mission: to deliver construction services with a level of transparency, craftsmanship, and client service that was genuinely uncommon in the New York City market. What began as a residential renovation and design-build operation — kitchen remodels, bathroom renovations, custom stone work from a Bronx showroom and fabrication facility — has grown into a full-service commercial construction company serving clients across the five boroughs and beyond.
The Early Years: Residential and Design-Build (2014-2019)
The company's residential roots shaped its approach to client relationships in ways that continue to define its commercial practice today. Residential clients expect transparency about costs, responsiveness to concerns, and accountability when something is not right. Those expectations — unreasonable to some contractors, basic to United Brothers — became the foundation of how the company operates at every scale.
Expanding into Commercial Construction
As the company's capabilities and team grew, so did the scope of work it could take on. The addition of Odise Gjelaj as Chief Executive Officer, bringing over 25 years of construction industry experience, allowed United Brothers to pursue and deliver increasingly complex commercial scopes — structural concrete rehabilitation, commercial roofing, multi-phase interior alterations, and complex office buildouts requiring engineering coordination and DOB management.
Today: A Full-Service NYC Licensed General Contractor
Today, United Brothers is a New York City licensed general contractor offering 16 distinct service lines across commercial and residential construction. The company is certified for both Firestone and Siplast commercial roofing systems, employs OSHA 30-Hour and 72-Hour SSM certified project management, and maintains an in-house stone fabrication facility alongside its construction operations.
The mission — bringing your vision to life — has not changed since 2014. What has changed is the scale and complexity of the visions we are equipped to deliver. Call us at (718) 882-0218 or visit unitedbrotherspro.com.
