Family concrete contractor
Philadelphia homeowners and businesses, since 1997.
Marcello Family Cement Work has been the family-operated concrete contractor for Philadelphia residents and businesses since 1997. The same father-and-son crew has worked across every part of the city, from the dense row homes of South Philly and Pennsport to the bigger lots of Chestnut Hill, the post-war Northeast Philly neighborhoods of Mayfair and Bustleton, and the brownstones of Center City.
The work that comes up most across Philly is residential flat work. Front-stoop concrete steps with the bull-nose and rise-and-run that match a hundred-year-old block. Public sidewalks at the curb line that have to pass inspection. Driveways and aprons in the city right-of-way. Backyard patios on tight side-yard footprints. Stone pointing on the older brick and stone facades. Chimney repairs on row-home roofs that take a hard winter every year.
For Philadelphia businesses, we pour storefront sidewalks, ADA-compliant transitions, parking-pad slabs, and the right-of-way work that local commercial properties often need. BBB A+ Accredited, 4.8 stars across 177 verified Google reviews, family-operated since 1997. We answer the phone (most days it is Marcello himself), we show up when we said we would, and we leave the work zone cleaner than we found it.

“A short story…we needed someone who could do an emergency sidewalk repair in center city Philadelphia during the holidays! Impossible? Well, Marcello made it possible. He called back when he said he was going to call back. He showed up exactly when he said he'd show up. He arrived at our center city address, got out of his truck and fixed the problem. He really cared about getting it right. And…all that happened for a reasonable price. Personable, honest, man-of-his word. He's been added to my short list of trusted Philly vendors.”
