MG Builders LLC was founded in 1997 by Giovanni Merino with a simple belief: homeowners deserve a contractor who treats their home with the same care as their own. What started as a one-man operation in Edison, New Jersey has grown into one of Central NJ’s most trusted general contracting companies — but the values haven’t changed.
For 29years, Giovanni has personally overseen every project MG Builders takes on. He’s on the job site. He’s answering your calls. He’s making sure every tile is straight, every joint is tight, and every finish is right. That’s not a marketing claim — it’s how we’ve earned a 4.8-star Google rating.
Today, MG Builders operates out of our showroom and office at 130 Plainfield Ave in Edison, NJ. We serve homeowners throughout Central New Jersey — handling everything from kitchen remodeling and bathroom renovations to new home construction and full property rehabs for investors.
What Sets MG Builders Apart
Owner-Operated, Every Project
Giovanni Merino doesn't delegate your project to a project manager you've never met. He's personally involved in every job — from the initial estimate through the final walkthrough. When you call MG Builders, you're talking to the owner.
Dedicated Project Team, One Point of Accountability
Every project has one dedicated team and one project lead from first walkthrough through final punch list. One team, one schedule, one point of accountability — so nothing gets lost in the handoff between trades.
Physical Showroom
Most contractors ask you to choose materials from a catalog. We invite you to our Edison showroom at 130 Plainfield Ave to see and touch countertops, cabinetry, tile, and fixtures in person. It's a major differentiator — and our clients love it.
Licensed, Insured, Accountable
NJ General Contractor License NJ #13VH08376600. Fully insured. Every permit pulled, every inspection passed, every project backed by a 12-month warranty. We don't cut corners because we plan to be here for another 29 years.
4.8-Star Google Rating
Our reputation isn't built on advertising — it's built on results. Every 5-star review represents a Central NJ homeowner who trusted us with their home and was glad they did.
From Kitchens to Custom Homes
We're not a one-trick shop. Whether you need a bathroom refresh or a ground-up custom home, MG Builders has the licensing, experience, and crew to handle it. One contractor for everything means fewer headaches and better results.
