Joe Jackson is the founder of Dessau Modular, a residential construction company created to bring clarity, efficiency, and reliability to the homebuilding process.
With 20 years in the construction industry, Joe’s experience spans projects of varying scale and complexity, from tenant fit-outs and residential multifamily buildings to large institutional developments. After earning a mechanical engineering degree from Villanova University, he advanced to a project manager at Turner Construction in the Boston and Philadelphia regions, followed by co-ownership role at Bracy Construction in Pennsylvania.
Throughout his career, Joe saw firsthand how labor shortages and fragmented coordination drive delays and cost overruns in traditional construction. That insight led him to focus on volumetric modular construction—an approach that shifts much of the work off-site, reduces complexity, and delivers greater schedule and cost certainty.
At Dessau Modular, Joe combines thoughtful design with a more reliable building process, helping clients build high-quality homes with fewer surprises and a better overall experience.
