ABOUT DENK AND ROCHE
Building Towards a Sustainable Future
"You can spend a fortune, but you can't spend a trade."
Paddy to his familiars, Patrick Roche spent his childhood, until his early teens, in Dublin, Ireland, striving for a better life. After spending some time in the early sixties in London, he came over to America in December 1964. His goal was to try and get a union job: “Typically guys with good jobs like that were making about hundred bucks a week. So, I went down to Erie Street and took a test.” After passing the Carpenter's exam, he took a job with a local home builder where he met fellow Carpenter, Joe Denk. Together they tackled a number of side jobs at the weekends to help bring in some extra cash for their growing families. Eventually, the side work was abundant enough for them to form their own company, and that is how they started Denk & Roche Builders in summer of 1979.
