SEI Construction, Inc. is a family owned, licensed general contractor and design-build remodeling company based in Westfield, NJ. For nearly 40 years, we have been transforming homes across Union, Essex, and Morris County with the craftsmanship, communication, and accountability that homeowners deserve from a contractor they invite into their home.
Owner, SEI Construction, Inc.
Mike took ownership of SEI in 2016, maintaining the team and standards that already made the company one of the most trusted names in Central NJ remodeling and raising the bar on communication, process, and client experience. He is personally involved in every project SEI takes on.
Why homeowners choose SEI
These are not marketing claims. They are the specific reasons clients come back for their second and third projects and why they refer their neighbors.
Mike Rizzo is personally involved in every SEI project. Not handed off. Not managed by rotating staff. The person whose name is on the company is the person accountable for the outcome.
We have completed projects across Westfield, Scotch Plains, Summit, Cranford, Fanwood, Short Hills, Chatham, and New Providence for nearly four decades. We know the home styles, the building departments, and the neighborhood character of every community we serve.
Interior designers in Central NJ regularly refer their clients to SEI because they trust our team to execute design-forward projects with the precision their clients expect. A contractor trusted by design professionals can handle the complexity of any project you bring.

Who we are
These three words are why the company is named what it is. They describe the experience homeowners have had on every SEI project since 1987.
Every person on an SEI project is selected because they are genuinely excellent at their trade. That means in-house carpentry rather than outsourcing the craftsmanship. It means the specific people our clients mention by name in their reviews – Tyler for his precision, Izzy for working as if it were his own home. Skill means the details most homeowners never notice but that determine whether a renovation holds up for thirty years.
Excellence at SEI means one thing: the project is not complete until every detail matches the agreement. Not approximately. Not close enough. Jackie Metzger, who hired SEI for three separate projects, said it plainly: “The job is not complete until the last detail has been addressed.” That standard is why clients return.
Innovation at SEI means finding better ways to plan, communicate, and build so each project runs more smoothly than the last. It means 3D design renderings so you can see your finished space before construction begins. It means the BuildClean professional dust control system so your family can stay home throughout a major renovation. It means a structured design-build process that eliminates the planning failures and communication breakdowns that make most remodeling experiences painful.
In their own words
The best way to understand whether SEI is the right contractor for your project is to have a conversation. We will listen to what you want to accomplish, share our honest assessment, and let you decide from there.
