​​Company History

​

Shepherd & Sons Inc. was officially established in 1997. The owners (Donald, Meir, and John) have been in the gutter industry for well over 30 years. After years of working together at another gutter company they decided to branch off and start their own company. Through hard work, determination, and great business relationships they went from one single residential builder account to many accounts with some of the biggest builders on the East Coast.

​

For 28+ years, Shepherd & Sons Inc. has been a staple of the Baltimore residential community. Our commitment to quality has earned us the trust of not only local families but also some of the largest home builders in the region, including Williamsburg Homes, Goodier Baker, Compass Homes, Caruso Homes, Mid-Atlantic Homes, Ameri-Star Homes, Castle Rock Homes and many more over the years.
