About Us
Built on Experience and Local Knowledge
A Hands-On Approach to Construction From Start to Finish
Founded in 2002, we bring 30+ years of construction experience with hands-on, owner-led project management.
At Lilco Construction Inc, we take pride in delivering general work that is built on experience, accountability, and attention to detail. Founded in 2002 in Chester, NY, by Josh Silkman, our business was built from a lifelong connection to the construction industry. Growing up in a family involved in construction and later working as a mechanic, Josh developed strong technical skills that continue to shape how we approach every project.
With over 30 years of experience, we understand the challenges that homeowners face when planning construction and remodeling projects. Many projects require multiple trades, coordination, and careful planning, which can quickly become overwhelming. That is why we built our process around providing a single team that can manage everything from excavation and site preparation to interior remodeling and finishing work.
Hands-On Project Management
We stay involved in every project from start to finish, ensuring clear communication and consistent progress so homeowners always know what to expect.
All-in-One Construction Solutions
We handle everything from site preparation to interior finishes, giving homeowners one team instead of managing multiple contractors across different phases.
Local Knowledge and Experience
With deep roots in Chester, NY, and the surrounding areas, we understand local building conditions, property challenges, and community expectations.
We serve homeowners across Chester, NY, Orange County, including Blooming Grove, Monroe, Goshen, Middletown, New Windsor, and Warwick, as well as Rockland County, Sullivan County, and parts of Northern New Jersey such as Mahwah, Ridgewood, Montclair, and Paramus. Our familiarity with these areas allows us to handle a wide range of property types, including historic homes, modern builds, and properties with challenging terrain.
As an owner-operated business, we stay involved in every project to ensure clear communication and consistent results. We are licensed in New Jersey and Rockland County, and we are a BBB Accredited Business with an A+ rating. We also provide 24-hour service when urgent needs arise, including restoration work for water or fire damage.
Our goal is simple: to provide homeowners with a dependable solution for construction, remodeling, and restoration without the need to manage multiple contractors. With free estimates and a hands-on approach, we help you move forward with confidence and clarity.
