How A. Will Construction Started

A company built to close the gap between how commercial projects get managed and how most home renovations actually run.

Anthony W. Rivera spent 12 years managing projects between $40 million and $100 million for a multi-billion-dollar commercial general contractor. Every project has a formal schedule with due dates, weekly updates, daily reports, and a meeting rhythm that keeps owners informed without having to ask.

Many homeowners experience renovation projects without a clear schedule, consistent communication, or regular progress updates. As construction moves forward, it is often difficult to know what is happening, what is next, or how the project is tracking.

A. Will Construction exists to close that gap. Every project gets a formal schedule with milestones, daily reports with progress photos, same-day communication, and written budget and change order tracking. Residential work managed with commercial discipline.

Who Runs Your Project

Anthony W. Rivera, Founder

Before starting A. Will Construction, Anthony managed commercial construction for over a decade. The projects ranged from restaurant build-outs and retail spaces to ground-up office buildings, multifamily apartment communities, and historic renovations, with construction values ranging from $40 million to $100 million. He coordinated dozens of subcontractors, ran owner-architect-contractor meetings weekly, and delivered daily reports to stakeholders who expected to see exactly where their money was going.

He brings that same discipline to every project. When you hire A. Will Construction, Anthony is the one who answers your call, walks your site, and keeps you informed every step of the way. You are working with the owner, ensuring clear communication, accountability, and a level of attention that is often missing in construction today.

He put a Construction Management degree from Wentworth Institute of Technology to work on commercial job sites before bringing that same standard to residential projects. He holds an Unrestricted Construction Supervisor License (CS-118371) and Home Improvement Contractor registration (HIC 220449). A. Will Construction is fully licensed and insured.

The System

How You’ll Always Know What’s Happening

Most homeowner frustration comes down to one thing: not knowing. Not knowing when the crew will show up, what changed, or where the budget stands. Our management system eliminates that. Here is what every A. Will Construction client gets, regardless of project size.

01

Formal Schedule with Real Dates

Before demo starts, you have a schedule with milestones and due dates. Not a vague “4-6 weeks” estimate. A real timeline you can plan your life around, updated weekly as the project moves.

02

Daily Reports with Photos

Every day there is work happening, you get an update. What got done, what is next, and photos of the progress. You never have to chase your contractor for information.

03

Same-Day Communication

Call or text and hear back the same day. If something comes up on the job site that affects your schedule or budget, you hear about it before the end of the workday.

04

Written Budget and Change Order Tracking

If something changes, you see it in writing with the cost before we touch anything. No surprise invoices. No casual mid-project additions that show up on the final bill.

05

One Point of Contact

Anthony coordinates every trade, manages the schedule, and handles any issue that comes up. You talk to one person. Same phone number, same-day responses.

“Can’t say enough good things about this company. Super professional, reliable, and the quality of work speaks for itself. You can tell they actually care about the details and take pride in what they do. Hard to find people nowadays that communicate well, show up when they say they will, and still overdeliver. If you’re looking for a construction company that’s trustworthy and gets the job done right, this is definitely one I’d recommend. Thank you Anthony!”

★★★★★
“This team did a fantastic job with my recent bath remodel. Anthony was incredibly professional and very reliable from the moment he visited for the estimate until the end. He and his team were efficient during the entire construction, not wasting time, paying attention to details, and making sure to not damage or dirty the rest of the house. I will 100% use them again for my next project!!”
