About

Our History

Glen Arm Building Company was founded in 1974 by Herbert Dripps. The company has grown from a one man operation working out of Herb’s home office in Glen Arm Maryland into the Company that it is today. Glen Arm is very fortunate to have dedicated employees that care about the best interest of the customers that we are serving. We care about every project as if it were our own. Without these special employees we would not be conducting business today in the same fashion that our customers have become accustomed to.

What Our Customers are Saying

Once again I have to say that it was a pleasure working with you. Glen Arm is a fantastic company to do business with and from what I have heard from other folks that have worked with construction companies, that is not always the case. Thank you again and please stop by if you are ever in the neighborhood.
