“I had Marcello create a new patio and replace several blocks of a pedestrian sidewalk. The work was excellent. What I like most is that he and his crew pay close attention to detail. The sidewalk blocks were leveled perfectly to match the level of existing sidewalk blocks. The patio came out fabulous. It was graded so that water would not flow toward the house. From excavation to the pouring of concrete Marcello continually gave me update status with pictures as I could not be there during the excavation phase. Marcello's crew is very professional. I received multiple quotes for this job and Marcello's price was the most competitive. I have already discussed with Marcello work I want done at another property.”

“After a plumbing repair we needed 2 sidewalk squares replaced. Marcello Family Cement Work was very responsive and took care of the work quickly and at a good price. Marcello was an excellent communicator and he and his team took great care to do a very professional job and left the whole space very clean. They even filled an unrelated crack in another square. Couldn't be happier with the whole experience.”

“Couldn't recommend this company highly enough. Marcello was responsive and able to schedule our porch replacement quickly. He and his team removed our old wooden porch and replaced it with this gorgeous concrete porch efficiently but without rushing or being sloppy. They met their exact time deadlines they laid out, and Marcello kept me posted on their progress the whole time. The result is great! No joke, two neighbors asked me who I went to for a porch replacement. I unequivocally recommended Marcello Family.”

“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.”

“We called Marcello and he was at our house in 20 minutes to discuss different projects at our home. He gave us a quote on the spot. Now keep mind we called over 10 companies and only had 3 responses. Marcello was the most responsive with the right price! We appreciated his honesty in telling us what needed to be done and what didn't. He didn't want us doing unnecessary work or wasting our money. The project was completed within two weeks. We were so happy with his work, we are hiring him for another project in the early spring. My Mother was so impressed with the work done at our house, she is now going to have him work on her steps at her home. Working with Marcello and his team felt like working with family. His team showed up on time, came ready to work, were respectful and clean. They left our property looking better than when they arrived. They take pride in their work and it shows. I was very impressed! Thank you Marcello and Family for the wonderful service!”

“Marcello, his Dad & his team did an excellent job resurfacing my textured patio wall and some brick pointing. They were here when they said they'd be, kept me informed as the job progressed and when they were finished they cleaned up so well the only evidence of them being here is a brand new wall! I couldn't be happier with the results, the wall is a work of art – skills you just don't see anymore. If you need cement work do not hesitate to call Marcello Family Cement Work”

“OUTSTANDING, They are the best! We called 4 cement contractors, none of them even responded. Marcello Family responded the same day. They were on the job a few days later, and in less than 3 days they completed the job! This was a lot of work; a complete demolition of the front entrance steps and walkway. That old cement from the 60's is some tough demo work. After all of that bustin' up and cleaning up as if they were never there, they gave me a major appearance upgrade in beautiful cement work, thoughtfully built by skilled craftsmen. And they left the place neater than they found it. We are very, VERY PLEASED. And we will be having them back to upgrade the driveway next year.”

“I live in Northeast Philadelphia and I had Marcello family Concrete come and do three of my pads out front and then help strengthen a retaining wall around my pool. I could not be happier with with the quality of work and the expertise of his workers they were on time did a great job cleaned up everything when they were done. I would recommend this company to anybody who needs to have any type of cement work done. Thanks again to the whole crew for Marcello.”

“I called Marcelo concrete and explained what I needed he gave me a quote but then he said he would come over the following morning to look at it. He showed up on time and suggested that I get a couple extra blocks to make it look even better and he wasn't wrong, the price was great and I decided to let him have the job. He came back a day later on time of course and him and his guys went straight to work they broke the concrete up and removed it and graded everything out to the proper depth and swept everything up and waited for the concrete truck. Once the truck came they got right to it, pouring, grading and finishing. They do quality work it's a nice finish, good clean joints and nice crisp edges, when they were done they cleaned up the surrounding sidewalk and street.”

“Excellent, highly skilled professionals!! Marcello Family Concrete saved my home. Marcello was prompt to respond to my call for a consultation and quickly developed a plan to repair the damage done to my concrete patios and front porch. It was a disaster from a previous contractor but Marcello and his team took special care of my home like it was their own. They removed the damage and exceeded my expectations for a beautiful outdoor living space this summer. Marcello is a brilliant problem solver and I was able to trust his process every step of the way. He even took time to educate me on the right materials for my home project. He gave my home back to me better than ever. I am well pleased and very grateful for his help. Highly recommend this contractor!”

“We contacted Marcello about a concrete patio we wanted to add in the back of the house next to an existing stamped concrete area. Unfortunately they do not do stamped concrete work but recommend G&B Contractors. In fact Marcello even contacted them on our behalf and as a result we ended up using G&B. Although we did not end up working with Marcello, I can't say enough nice things about them. They have an excellent reputation, which I can only praise. Very knowledgeable and honest and have been in business for a long time, which is a testament to the quality of their work.”
