About Us
Our company was founded 32 years ago by Marty Cappelletti. As owner/operator, he initially focused on renovations and additions. His introduction to construction took place in his childhood as he was “recruited” by his father, a master carpenter, to be a helper on weekend projects in Philadelphia. Renovating kitchens, bathrooms and whole houses was second nature to his father, himself the son of a master cabinet maker from the Abruzzi region of Italy. By the time Marty graduated from St. Joe’s Prep he had also attained an unofficial degree in home renovations.
After graduating from Temple University as a journalism major, Marty had careers as a reporter, a restaurant owner and a wholesale tire dealer, but something else kept tugging at him. He now looks back on the decision to become a professional builder as a natural career path for him.
He started contracting small renovations in 1976, graduated to additions by 1978, built his first, new home in 1986 and has never looked back.
Cappelletti Builders Inc. is now a fully-staffed, fully insured company. Our employees are experienced professionals who know the ins and outs of renovations and new construction. We make progress not excuses.
Trust us to make your unique project a reality.
Wet bar, granite top and custom cabinetry take advantage
of sloped ceiling and skylight location on second floor of new addition.
Marty Cappelletti
Company founder and president
Responsibilities: Sales, marketing and "coaching" the team. "I’ve always felt that a good company should be run like a good sports team. You draft the best players and put them in a position that best suits their individual skill set. You organize the players and make sure they all know the plays and are doing their jobs. Take care of all of the small details and the big things will work out." Marty is an avid boater and loves to golf whenever he gets a chance. marty@cappellettibuilders.com
