Our History
Built from the Ground Up
The success of R.J. Valente Gravel, Inc. is a true American story built on hard work, family values, and perseverance.
Founded by Roddy Valente, the company began with just one dump truck and a bulldozer. Roddy's wife handled dispatch calls from their kitchen while he hauled, loaded, and operated equipment — doing whatever it took to get the job done right.
Through determination and an unwavering commitment to quality, R.J. Valente has grown from a small, hands-on operation into one of Upstate New York's most respected aggregate suppliers. Today, the company remains family-owned and operated, with Roddy's children Daniella and Stephen, and nephew Anthony proudly carrying the tradition forward.
