What K L Masters Construction Company does

K L Masters Construction Company (KLMCC) is a privately held, family-owned general contractor headquartered in Harrison, New Jersey with a secondary office in Stamford, Connecticut. The firm was founded in 2004 by Kyle Masters as the successor to Fields Construction Company, with James Caulfield serving as COO and Robert Caulfield as CEO. KLMCC provides preconstruction and construction management services to real estate developers building residential and mixed-use projects across the New York tri-state area. The company reports more than 50 delivered projects totaling over 8,500 residential units and $2.5B+ in construction value across 20+ years of operating history.

KLMCC's service offering is structured around two core platforms: preconstruction (constructability review, stakeholder analysis, scope and cost analysis, design development review, scheduling, and procurement) and construction execution (financial stewardship, subcontractor procurement, CPM scheduling, field coordination, QA/QC, safety, and warranty services). The firm operates across multiple structural systems including high-rise concrete, panelized cold-form steel, wood frame, and cross-laminated timber (delivered in Harrison URBY 4, the first CLT building in New Jersey). Projects are delivered via flexible commercial structures including cost-plus and stipulated sum contracts.

KLMCC serves a B2B enterprise customer base of real estate developers, including Saxum Real Estate, Hartz Mountain Industries, Advance Realty Investors, Fields Grade Development, Alpine Residential, Ironstate, and Fields Development Group. The go-to-market motion is relationship-driven enterprise field sales, anchored by repeat collaborations with the Fields Construction successor network (Fields Grade Development). Revenue is generated on a project basis with custom-quoted pricing tied to scope and complexity. KLMCC maintains 36 employees and reports no external investors, parent company, or M&A activity. Operational geographic reach is the tri-state area (NY, NJ, CT), with secondary execution capacity in Stamford, CT.
