Wise Guys History

Wise Guys began contractor service in 1988. During the early years, Wise Guys provided limited sod, landscaping and excavation service to local builders. Gradually, through experience and a growing customer base, the company expanded.

A merger in 2004 brought Wise Guys Contracting and R. A. Burgess, General Contractor into one general contracting company.  With R. A. Burgess came plumbing, electrical, masonry and carpentry skills as well as septic system installation service.

During 2005, new business practices and ideas were put into place resulting in a gross income double that of the previous year and triple from the year before. Our customer base expanded rapidly and the Wise Guys name became synonymous with fast, professional service.

In 2006, the founding partner retired, and Wise Guys, under new direction, began an extensive reorganization. Our goal was to become a complete service provider to our customer base. A fuel division, dumpster service and a paving division were added, giving us even more service capability.

Today, Wise Guys is capable of providing our customers with an extensive service menu. We are considered one of the major service providers to Northern Virginia and Western Virginia, Maryland and the District of Columbia construction community.

We have recently opened our Maryland Division office located near Fredrick, MD. If your company is located in Maryland and need any of our many construction support services, please call our Maryland General Manager, Bill Via.
