Founded by Orris Schlabach in 1979 under the name Buckeye Buildings, the company that grew to become Northeast Erectors has had a long history of supplying and assembling high-quality metal buildings for various businesses throughout the country. While this Northeast Ohio company initially began as a general contractor of post frame-style structures, they switched to industrial building construction in the 1980s as the demand for steel buildings grew. Once requests for such structures exceeded post frame, the company decided to focus on pre-engineered steel buildings, incorporating under the name Northeast Structural Systems in 1996. After several years of performing general contracting work and building relationships with other contractors throughout Stark County, Ohio; Portage County, Ohio; and Cuyahoga County, Ohio, the company discovered that their strength lie in the erection field. Since then, this local team of building erectors has completed projects of all sizes for businesses in the U.S. and even Jamaica.
