The Daily Dig
The Brock Group has acquired a Florida-based scaffolding company with five locations across Fort Myers, Orlando, Pompano Beach, Tampa, and Jacksonville. The deal brings more than 130 employees into Brock's workforce and adds nearly $70 million in fleet and assets in Florida.
Brock is retaining the entire leadership team along with all sales, field, and operational personnel. Day-to-day operations will continue without disruption, customer relationships and service commitments remain in place, and safety stays the top priority across all locations. The integration is designed to preserve the strengths of the existing organization while providing immediate access to Brock's national resources.
Leadership oversight for the expanded Southeast scaffolding operations has been aligned under Shawn Mills, President of Brock Services Southeast, who will manage both Brock Group Asset operations and the newly integrated Florida locations.
CEO Frank Bardonaro called it a significant step in the company's growth strategy, pointing to the acquired team's experience and shared commitment to safety, performance, and customer service as central to the decision.

TheJobWalk Thoughts
Five locations, 130-plus workers, and $70 million in fleet and assets significantly expand what Brock can deliver in Florida. Combined with Brock's national fleet, engineering capabilities, and staffing infrastructure, the integrated operation is now positioned to take on work in those five markets that previously required more reach than its Florida presence could support.
Retaining every employee across leadership, sales, and field operations is the right call in a service business. Those people hold the customer relationships. Protecting that continuity through the ownership change protects the revenue.
For GCs, subs, and suppliers active in these Florida markets, the practical shift is this: Brock now has established local operations backed by national scale and engineering depth. That changes the scope and complexity of projects it can realistically compete for across the region.
