History
OUR BEGINNING: Elmer and Willard Rosebrough were identical twin brothers born in 1918 in Indianapolis, IN. As young boys they enjoyed getting into mischief and tinkering with whatever they could get their hands on. In the 1940’s, World War II came along and both men were called to serve. Four years later, Elmer and Willard returned home and used the money they had saved from their time in the service to open and operate City Hardware in Indianapolis. After successfully owning and operating their business for 20+ years, Elmer and Willard sought other career opportunities. Into retirement, these twin brothers found enjoyment in building decks and other outdoor projects. Their craftsmanship got noticed and they began getting commissioned to perform work for others. As word of mouth spread, their business grew. Elmer and Willard enlisted the help of their sons, grandsons, and nephews, instilling in them the core values of being on time, being trustworthy, honest and reasonable, and providing quality service and products. These men continued to build for others into their 80’s. Up until shortly before his passing at age 100, Elmer could still be found tinkering in his workshop!
TSW Construction Services, LLC was officially formed in 2018 by Eric Rosebrough, grandson of Elmer and great-nephew of Willard. Although the current business name may be new, Eric possesses nearly 20 years of experience working alongside his grandfather and uncle and has carried on the building tradition on his own in more recent years. Although the name and the look of the business has recently changed, we take pride that the same craftsmanship and values taught by Elmer and Willard still exist.
