After serving 4 years of
duty in the United States
Marine Corps, Eric J. Smith
returned home to the
small community of Greene,
Maine. With a family
rooted in the drywall trade,
Eric spent the next few years
mentoring and gathering the
essential skills necessary
to survive in an extremely
competitive industry. In
2001, Eric coupled the
skills learned from his
father with the energy and
leadership traits infused
from the USMC and founded E.J. Drywall. The early
years of E.J. Drywall were
spent serving the thriving
residential new home
construction market. During
this time the company was
quickly building a
reputation for quality,
efficiency, and customer
satisfaction. With the
burst of the housing bubble
looming, the company had the
early foresight to recognize
that diversification was
going to be critical in
succeeding and ultimately
growing through a down
economy. With this focus in
mind, E.J. Drywall increased
staff and began securing
work within the commercial
market place. These markets
included hospitality,
retail, institutions, and
healthcare. While the
commercial side of the
business was growing so were
the companies?
capabilities. Painting,
rough carpentry, and
exterior insulation finish
systems quickly became a
compliment to the metal
framing and gypsum board
side of the business.

In 2009, E.J.
Drywall secured its
Service Disabled
Veteran Owned Small
Business Status
which the company is
proud of. This
status is one of
importance and
meaning because the
company currently
employs and actively
seeks out strong
disciplined military
veterans to
strengthen the
team?s core. In the
recent years the
company has made a
targeted effort to
serve other veterans
by pursuing and
completing work
within Veteran
Administration
Medical Centers
throughout New
England. |

Where safety is as
important as the
quality of our work
and our
productivity. |
Every day is a new
day and a new
beginning at the job
site, we as a
company need to be
trained as one to
control all unsafe
acts. We are all
responsible
individuals and are
responsible for
ourselves and the
people around us.
Our policy as a
company is to
provide all
employees with a
safe and healthy
workplace. Each
employee is
responsible for
implementing this
policy by
continually
observing all safety
rules, standards,
and practices
throughout the work
day. |
Today, E.J. Drywall
continues to develop upon
the core fundamentals of
quality, efficiency, safety,
and customer satisfaction.
The company has built a
solid reputation within the
marketplace and has built a
strong team of dedicated
craftspeople. Our goal
is to exceed our customers?
expectations through hard
work, integrity, and
excellence.
We are poised and prepared
to serve any of your
commercial or residential
needs.
