A Legacy of Excellence

Evolution of EMC Home Improvements

In 1966, the foundation of what would become EMC Home Improvements was laid when Harold Kilby and Bruce Nelson, employed at Aberdeen Mason, decided to forge their own path. Kilby Nelson Mason Contractors emerged, specializing in commercial masonry alongside sporadic residential ventures. By 1972, as the business burgeoned and expanded its Harford County clientele, Eastern Mason Contractors, Inc. was incorporated, with Harold Kilby assuming sole ownership. Larry Kilby, Harold's son, had already been contributing to the company's endeavors, gradually assuming greater responsibilities. By 1986, father and son became equal partners in the enterprise. As the years progressed, home improvement projects gained traction, leading Larry Kilby to become the sole proprietor in 2000.

David Snyder, Larry's son-in-law, had been an integral part of the company since 1994, gradually assuming more managerial duties. In 2007, the mantle of daily management was passed on to David, who assumed the role of President. His responsibilities encompass sales, managerial oversight, and strategic growth initiatives. Derrick Snyder, David's brother, joined the company in 1996, ascending from mason tender to his current position as Owner / Vice President. His duties include client liaison, project coordination, and ensuring client satisfaction.

Today, David and Derrick Snyder helm EMC Home Improvements, ensuring projects meet the highest standards. EMC Home Improvements, formerly Eastern Mason Contractors, Inc., has cemented its reputation as a trusted name in home improvement, serving Harford, Baltimore, and neighboring counties with distinction.
