About Us

Building Our Community for Over 50 Years

Since 1961, Scott-Long has been one of the most respected construction companies in the DC area. Originally incorporated as Bruce Scott Construction, the company’s driving philosophy centers on superior workmanship, competitive pricing, and innovative technologies.

In 1978, Henry Long joined the company as a consulting partner, resulting in the formation of Scott-Long Construction, Inc. After a successful 17-year partnership, Bruce Scott purchased Henry Long’s entire interest, but the company kept the name—and the principles—that contributed to its success through the years.

Where We Are Today: Still Driven by Our Core Values

The company is now led by Bruce Scott’s son, John Scott, who heads the company as the CEO and runs the day-to-day operations. John Scott’s mission remains true to the founding principles that his father intended: workmanship, innovation, and value.

Over the years Scott-Long has grown steadily in size, scope, and capabilities, and in the process, built a track record of innovation and leadership. We pride ourselves on maintaining a culture that fosters quality and long-term client relationships.

Client-Centered and Community-Focused

Our client-centered philosophy—together with our commitment to thoughtful planning, meticulous workmanship, and innovative technologies—has won us numerous awards. But more importantly, it has earned us the trust and repeated business of our clients.

Moreover, we specialize in projects we feel offer us the best opportunity to have a lasting, beneficial effect on the lives of our communities. Among these important projects are hospitals, senior care facilities, private schools, religious institutions, clubhouses and other selected facilities.
