Introduction

At Mazzeo Builders we pride ourselves on our dedication to quality and customer satisfaction in every project we undertake. Today, we’re excited to introduce you to our founder and owner, Tom Mazzeo. In this exclusive interview, we dive into his journey in the construction industry, the values that drive the company, and what sets Mazzeo Buidlers apart from the competition.






Interview

Q: Can you tell us a bit about your background and what inspired you to start Mazzeo Builders

A: Absolutely! I’ve always had a passion for building and design. From learning from my old man, I have been raised knowing the ins and outs of construction.  My father taught my brother and myself all about masonry and grew into the trade of general contractor. Over the years, I have been in partnership with my brother Frank, and at times other business partners, but when my wife and I had our first child, she started working with me and building our family legacy.  With that being said, we went through a few company names to see what worked best for the market, but ended with (and sticking with) Mazzeo Builders, to keep my family name alive, I’m very proud of my family and naming my company after us, is a great way to honor them. That’s how Mazzeo Builders was born!

 

Q: What services do you offer, and what types of projects do you typically work on?

A: We specialize in a range of services, including residential and commercial construction, renovations, and project management. We’ve worked on everything from custom home builds to office remodels and large-scale commercial projects. Our team takes pride in our versatility and ability to adapt to different client needs and project requirements.


Q: What values do you prioritize at Mazzeo Builders?

A: Integrity, quality, and customer satisfaction are at the core of everything we do. We believe in being honest with our clients, providing them with clear timelines and budgets, and delivering high-quality work that meets their expectations. Building trust is crucial in this industry, and we strive to foster strong relationships with our clients and subcontractors alike.


Q: Can you share a memorable project that you worked on and what made it special?

A: One of my favorite projects was a complete renovation of a historic home in Long Valley, New Jersey. The homeowners wanted to preserve the charm of the original architecture while modernizing the interior. It was a challenging project, but seeing the transformation and the joy on the homeowners’ faces when we completed it was incredibly rewarding. It reinforced my belief that thoughtful design and attention to detail can truly elevate a space.


Q: What advice would you give to homeowners considering a renovation or new build?

A: My biggest piece of advice is to plan ahead and do your research. Understand your needs, set a realistic budget, and don’t hesitate to ask questions. Communication is key! Partnering with a contractor who listens to your vision and understands your goals will make the process much smoother. And remember, renovations can be disruptive, so it’s essential to stay flexible and patient.


Q: What’s next for Mazzeo Builders?

A: We’re constantly looking to innovate and improve our services. In the coming year, we’re focusing on incorporating more sustainable building practices and materials into our projects. I believe that it’s essential for us to contribute positively to our community and the environment while still delivering high-quality construction.

 

Q: What is one thing you want homeowners to know when working with Mazzeo Builders?

A: Don’t be afraid to ask questions, especially during the very first step – reviewing an Estimate.  When comparing Estimates (I STRONGLY believe you should get at least 3 sets of pricing), make sure they include everything according to your plans.  Make sure that you ask questions that will make you feel comfortable with where your money is going.  Building, regardless of the scale, is a big endeavor, so make sure you are getting what you should be.

Keep in mind that some Estimates might be missing a few things to look more attractive, but with that, the Change Orders are pricey.
