Thom’s talent as a construction manager comes from a lifetime of learning. Beginning at the age of 6 when he would pal around with the handy dads in the neighborhood; that’s when he developed an interest in household maintenance. He says, “My father literally could not screw in a lightbulb so I learned from the other dads. I was the kid on the block who was always willing to help out.” This experience at such a young age lit a fire in Thom that developed into an interest in not only how things work, but how to make things work better. Thom graduated from Oswego in 1975 with a teaching degree and went on to teach Industrial Arts to K-12 students for 9 years. He also coached high school track, football and soccer teams. Thom moved to Warwick with his wife, Sally and their young family in 1986.
After a year of falling in love with Warwick, Thom and Sally decided to build their family home. It was no stretch that Thom would be the builder – the project was a culmination of all that he learned and taught over the years.
Once the Woglom family home was complete, Thom Woglom Construction began. Thom continues to treat every assignment as though it were his own home; applying the most cost-effective methods, energy efficient techniques and innovative practices to every project.
