About Us

M.P. Edwards, doing business as Absolute Contracting in New York and Connecticut, was founded in 2012 by the merger of two contracting companies that were in business for more than 20 years. This has enabled us to complete many projects since our incorporation. The vast majority of our projects involved commercial construction.
