About Builder One Inc.
I’m Sam Troilo (troy-loh), owner of Builder One Inc. I picked up my first shovel at 19 on a Cherokee Construction crew in Philadelphia. Thirty years later, I still physically walk every single job I take.
I learned this business from the ground up—framing, finish work, running field crews, and eventually managing entire buildings. Each step taught me exactly what it takes to do the next one well.
Over the years, I’ve built for developers, commercial property owners, and local families. I’ve also owned and renovated rental properties with my own money on the line. That firsthand experience completely shapes how I approach your project, especially your budget and timeline.
Builder One Inc. brings all of that regional experience together: a streamlined office team handling compliance, field crews I’ve trusted for decades, and me right there on the job. It’s the company I put my name behind, and I stay involved from permit to handover.
