What Metro Walls does
Metro Walls, Inc. is a 100% employee-owned specialty trade contractor providing commercial framing, drywall, and acoustical services to general contractors and project owners across the Northeast United States. Founded in 2005 and headquartered in Manchester, New Hampshire, the company operates from four regional offices — Manchester NH, Portland ME, Westport MA, and Elmsford NY — serving New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Maine, New York, Vermont, and Rhode Island.
The company's core service offering covers metal stud framing, cold-formed metal framing (CFMF) trusses and load-bearing wall panels, drywall installation and finishing, acoustical ceiling and wall systems, doors/frames/hardware, and FRP wall panels. In October 2023 Metro Walls acquired Aceto Acoustics, Inc. (a Maine-based acoustical firm founded in 1972), which continues to operate under its existing brand and is managed by General Manager Jim Medaglia out of the Portland office, giving Metro Walls an end-to-end interior envelope capability. The firm has been recognized by Walls and Ceilings Magazine as a Top 50 Contractor for six consecutive years and has accumulated multiple ABC Excellence in Construction Awards across its NH/VT and MA chapters.
Metro Walls generates revenue on a project-based, bid-and-quote model: it is engaged as a subcontractor by general contractors through competitive tendering or negotiated contracts for defined scopes on commercial construction projects. Customer segments are diversified vertically across commercial real estate, multi-family residential, educational, healthcare, industrial/logistics, and hospitality end markets, with named engagements spanning projects such as the EMD Serono Horizon Building (149,000 SF biopharma R&D facility), Amazon's 145,000 SF Plymouth MA distribution facility, the 289,000 SF Morse High School, and large multi-family developments for Wood Partners and Reveler Development. Leadership includes President Bryan Hussey (over 25 years of industry experience, 2024 NH Business Review Business Excellence Award recipient), General Manager Jim Medaglia (Acoustical Division), Safety Director Matt Gifford, and Director of HR and People Operations Risa Taylor.
