Brede Tool & Supply is celebrating more than 30 years serving contractors in Rochester and Western New York.  The company was founded in 1965 as a scaffold rental house. Since its’ early days, Brede has evolved into a full service contractors equipment supplier, adding product lines to serve our diverse customer base.

In addition to sales and rental of scaffolding, Brede offers sales of lift equipment, power tools, fasteners, safety and fall protection equipment, pumps, compressors, and much more.  Brede is a distributor for manufacturers such as Bosch, Makita, Blazer, Genie, Bil-Jax, Porter-Cable, Rawl Powers, Rectorseal, Stow, Cadweld, Erico Caddy, and Diamond Products.

Rentals of contractors equipment are a large segment of Bredes’ offering, carrying items including scaffolding, material and personnel lifts, small and tow-behind air compressors, aluminum stages, powder actuated tools, power tools, diamond blades and bits and core machines.

Outside and inside sales staffs help customers pick the right tool for the job.  The outside sales staff will visit job sites to give advice on product selection, and help lay out scaffold jobs.

A radio dispatched fleet provides delivery and pick up and full in house service is offered on all brands of power tool and light contractors’ equipment.

Originally located in a 6,000 square foot building on Wright Street, We’re now housed in a 22,000 square foot building at 1036 Maple Street on the corner of Glide Street.  Easy access from the expressways 390 and 490 is provided, with Bredes’ building less than sixty seconds from the Mount Read Boulevard exit of route 490.
