Brian Zilch has, over the past 25 years, become integrally woven into the construction fabric of Greater Cincinnati. His name and reputation have become
synonymous with quality buildings and he is looked to for guidance by many in the local construction community. His"big picture" understanding of building systems, their
components and the quality of design as well as his ability to value engineer just about any project make him indispensable to the building process. His goal is to
consistently deliver the best value to the client, insuring a smooth transition from the design phase through the construction phase and on to completion.
Brian was born in Peoria, Illinois in 1953 to Dr. & Mrs. Karl T. Zilch. The family soon moved to the Cincinnati area where Brian attended St. Xavier High School graduating
