Where to start? I cannot say enough good things about Joe and his crew, especially Cecil and John. My husband and I had tried to redo our bathroom starting in Aug. of 2020. We wound up getting ripped off by a contractor who not only had taken 10 months to not finish, but did a horrific job that was not only not professional, but not sound (he didn't even waterproof the shower!) and it left us devastated. In need of a complete redo, I did some research and found glowing reviews for DePiano, and from first contact through the end of the project, we were more than thrilled with everything he and his crew did. Joe was quickest to reply to a request for a quote where other contractors either were slow to respond or just blew us off altogether. Next, the amount of work that was done for the price was incredible - based on Joe's suggestions, our bathroom was made more functional in its layout - from demoing things to increase the size of the shower, to moving a doorway and even a radiator to make things work (and look) better. Cecil did an amazing job quickly demoing and cleaning things up and John was meticulous in his work -from framing, to tiling, to finishes - and gave honest input into design and layout that were incredibly helpful (and great suggestions)! Everyone we dealt with was incredibly reliable - always showing up when they said they would and completing what I feel was a much bigger project than what was initially envisioned quickly - start to finish was only 5-6 weeks! When we had questions along the way, Joe was always super quick to respond - we never waited more than an hour (and honestly, I don't think we ever waited even that long) for him to give us a call after we reached out. To say our expectations were exceeded is truly an understatement. Our new bathroom has gone from a literal hole in the wall to what our friends have described as a "model home showcase" and we could not be happier. We will absolutely be calling upon Joe and his crew again in the future for any remodeling or general contracting work and I wholeheartedly recommend DePiano for all of your contracting needs. If I could give 10 stars, I would! Thank you for being so amazing and turning our bathroom nightmare into a literal dream! read more

My wife and I were looking for our basement to be finished and a master bathroom update. About a year ago we had Joe (and others) come by with estimates. Joe's prices were very reasonable - in line with others or lower. He was also very helpful - willing to let us do some work prior to him getting started to save on costs. He was also able to provide answers/solutions to certain questions we had regarding relocating certain appliances. We did not move forward with either project at the time, but set a timeline to do them/others in the next 5 years. However, Joe (and his colleague Gordon) did install a gas line to both our stove and fireplace. We just renovated our kitchen ourselves, the missing piece was a gas line to a new stove which we just bought and a fireplace insert into our previous wood burning fireplace. We just converted to gas so these were the last items in that project that needed to be done. Joe and Gordon came by and the job was pretty quick/easy in general, though the placement of our fireplace and basement was not ideal for running a line and we just barely got the pipe hole through the floor. The entire job took maybe 1/2 a day and was fantastic. I would highly recommend Joe (and Gordon) to anyone. Joe knew what he was doing and my wife and I are very happy with the end result. We did have an issue almost immediately with one of the connections to the gas line was broken (but installed correctly), and let out a slow leak. Joe was right on it - fixed it almost immediately (there was no rush because I was able to turn the gas off thanks to Joe installing a shut off valve at both the start and end of the line. It was comforting that he took the time out of his night to continue to talk to me about how to troubleshoot/fix the problem, and that he came back fast to fix it without trying to charge me extra. We are very pleased with the work and hoping to use the fireplace in the winter months. We plan to have Joe come back to do as much of the remaining projects that I am unable or unwilling to do myself. I very much recommend him to anyone considering a small or large home project. read more

We hired Depiano General Contractors initially to do some concrete work on the one side of our building consisting of about 36 concrete blocks and it's curb. We saw the quality and dedication on this job, (keeping us informed of the township permits needed or not needed, updating us on scheduling of what's being done and when, sending us progression photo's of the work for documentation purposes, etc.) And, as we saw the quality of the work and the dedication to the customer, (us!) we realized the tremendous quality we were getting from Depiano General Contractors and decided to have them work on several more projects on a building we purchased, including: a new roof, tearing down old wood siding and replacing with new siding, new gutters, new windows, panel shutters and we're still going...The owner of Depiano General Contractors, Joe Depiano, is honest, flexible, straightforward and reachable! He worked with us on decisions that we asked for assistance on and he helped us to stay within our budget. If you are looking for a Contractor who is honest, dedicated and will work with you to insure that your vision is reachable, contact Depiano General Contractors. We're glad we did!

This review is long overdue. Joe did a complete renovation on a sunroom. Demo'ed the old one and rebuilt the sunroom from the foundation. It looks great, the family loves the new space, and so far no problems after more than a year. However, a sunroom pipe was leaking when I opened the shut off valve this spring. Talked to joe about it and in a few weeks, he sent Gordon to fix it and it works fine now. Problem was pipe froze and shark bite connection broke. Really thankful he backs up his work even though it was more than a year ago since they completed it and it wasn't his fault. For the project overall, I had a great experience with Joe and would happily consider him for future projects. I like that he and his guys aren't trying to sell and be pushy but they focus on the problem and make suggestions and make sure they do it right and focus on the client's needs. I found Joe to be honest and transparent and an easy guy to talk to. read more

I've had a great experience working with Joe and his team. After other estimates for a bathroom renovation and deck construction, Joe's estimate came in at a reasonable range and he was really transparent and honest about what made sense and costs. Joe is super easy to communicate with and really helpful with all my questions. The bathroom is almost completed and they are starting deck construction now. Cecil has been great with demo and all the work he has done. Can't say enough good things about Rich (who has been doing the bathroom work). The quality of his work is exceptional, he checks in to make sure I'm happy with how things are looking throughout the process, and has come up with a ton of creative custom solutions to problems as they arise. Would recommend this crew to anyone. I'll update with pictures after the bathroom and deck are done. read more

Moving into a new home during a pandemic is hard enough, then we found out that the renovations done by previous owners resulted in a bathroom pipe breaking. We called half a dozen contractors, but Joe was the only one who took the time to think about what was causing the leak and how to resolve it. In the middle of the pandemic Joe's crew, Gordon, Cecil, Jerry (I know I am forgetting someone's name) got the job done and then some. Not only did they fix our pipe (which was a miracle in itself in our old home with poorly planned renovations), but also raised our ceiling and put in recessed lights which seemed physically impossible but they got it done! I still call on Joe and his team when I need something for my home because I know that they will spend the time to do a good job and the quality will be good. read more

Had the worst experience with a contractor that was recommended to me by our neighbors to do a bedroom remodel splitting one room into two for my kids. The contractor ghosted us... then my wife found Joe on yelp and I couldn't have been happier. They showed up when they said and have been super respectful and the work ethic they have had is refreshing (Lou is a machine). In one day the amount of work they were able to do was incredible. I was quoted 2 weeks by most contractors and they will be finishing in 3. Makes me wonder what the others were going to do with that extra time. All and all the experience was great and the cost was great as well. We're looking to get more done to the house over then next few years and I will gladly call them again. Great job guys. read more

DePiano is very accommodating, trustworthy, and professional, and the pricing is fair -- we recommend this contractor without hesitation and will be using DePiano again for our other property. We had DePiano split a bedroom into two bedrooms, build out a closet in the newly-created room, and put in a window. We are through 75% of the project and have been very impressed thus far. The remaining 25% will be putting in the window and finishing up aesthetics in a week or two. We are thoroughly impressed and Joe even arranged to have the first phase of work done over the weekend while we were already planning to be out of town so that we wouldn't have to move our family out of the house a second time. We are very satisfied with this contractor and absolutely recommend DePiano! read more

I had a great experience working with DePiano General Contractors. The owner responded immediately to my initial call and was able to meet with me within 24 hours to look at my property and presented an estimate within 48 hours. He took the time to answer my questions (and I had a lot of questions!) and presented several options for my project. He provided a written estimate with lots of detail and outlining my options clearly. The work was done in a timely fashion and I was very pleased with the outcome. The owner was in constant communication with me throughout the project and responded quickly to my calls. I would definitely recommend DePiano General Contractors and would use them again. Good service, good work, good pricing and an all-around good experience. read more

Having dealt with many contractors, I can say Joe and his team were the easiest to work with by far in my 10 years in the Delco area. They were fast, efficient, and always showed up exactly when they said they would. I felt bad sending so many texts and phone calls with questions about my project, but Joe was always happy to answer them and ensured the project moved the direction I needed it to go. I know that addressing the structural issues in my basement was not their biggest or most important job, but I always felt like I was being treated as a priority and that the job was being treated with urgency. This allowed me to close on my house with no delays or issues. I came here to say thanks for doing such a great job and saving the day, Joe! read more

We needed to renovate my father's house after his death for a quick sale. Joe came highly recommended by a friend and he did not disappoint. He assessed and prioritized the work that needed to be done to maximize the sale price of the home and he worked within our limited budget. He delivered high quality work renovating the kitchen and bathroom as well as structurally correcting the patio roof. All the work was done on time and far exceeded our expectations. Joe was personable and understanding of our situation. It was a great experience feeling we could trust Joe, his fair pricing and the quality of the his work! We will be hiring DePiano Contractors to do work in our own home. Thank you Joe! read more

So appreciative of Joe Di Piano...he is a good kind honest helpful man, in addition to being extremely knowledgeable about integrating all,aspects of construction, and creative in unusual solutions to hard remodelling problems. I feel very at ease and trusting of him and his recommendations and workmanship. We were installing a completely new bathroom on a third floor of a 100 year house with tricky walls and Joe found the best way to make it all hapoen after we got stuck! Because he has so much experience working with such old houses, he had the confidence and insights that others seem to lack, which helped us accept a redesign that works much better than our original plan. Thank you! read more

Joe just redid our patio. He and his workers did a wonderful job. They were extremely neat and kept everything very tidy and clean. The new patio is beautiful and everything we hoped for. He did not have any unexpected charges or damage something else which has happened to us with other contractors in the past. He kept the workers on schedule and the job was done when expected. He obviously is quite knowledgeable about construction and we will definitely hire him again when we need work done. We would recommend him to anyone looking to have quality work done for a reasonable price. Patricia Montgomery, MD read more

I highly recommend Joe DePiano. I originally reached out to Joe via Yelp to build a storage loft in my residential garage in Fishtown. As we went back and forth on a design for the loft, Joe was very responsive, transparent, and professional. On the day of the build, Joe and his partner arrived on time and got to work immediately, completing the build that same day. The loft came out great -- well-constructed and exactly what I was looking for. The price Joe quoted was very reasonable and he stuck to it. Joe's a stand-up guy and I will definitely be turning to him for future projects. read more

DePiano General Contractors did an outstanding job on converting our screened-in porch into a full enclosed storage area. Joe was extremely knowledgeable, flexible with change orders, and responded to our every need during this project. His entire team was professional, detail orientated and kept a very clean work site. We would highly recommend DiPiano contractors to all my friends and family along with being very excited to conquer another project together. We cannot thank you enough for your time and effort on our project. It was a joy working with you and your entire team. read more

Great job Joe & team!!! I had the worst job a contractor wants to take on - re-cementing my South Philly backyard with access only available through my neighbor's back yard and over a brick wall, nonetheless. What a PITA. Joe and his team did it and did it in the midst of this horrible Philly summer weather, did the job well, and even went the extra mile to patch up portions of the foundation causing leakage into my basement, which was outside of the scope of the project. I've never seen such a hard working team. Very pleasant and professional. Thank you guys very much! read more

Joe DePiano and his team did a great job renovating our 40 year old hall bathroom. His tile man Rich, a certified Wedi shower system installer, suggested switching from a traditional bathtub shower combination to a curbless shower with a half glass wall. Rich was able to incorporate the same large floor tiles from the bathroom into the shower pan for a seamless look, and a couple of squeegee swipes easily dry water spills. We are so pleased with the results! Joe worked with us to make sure we were satisfied. We did need patience, as Joe is very busy. read more

Joe is incredible! He came out to a home we are looking to purchase and gave us a FREE estimate on some major work that would need to be done. He was helpful, informative and friendly and took his time going through everything with us. He wasn't pushing any agenda on us and wasn't trying to upgrade or sell anything. He really is a genuinely good person with excellent experience. We hope we can use him with this home or a future purchase as his quote was very reasonable for the work we wanted done. Thanks again for being so awesome! read more

Depiano General Contractors did an outstanding job on converting our screened in back porch to a fully enclosed storage area. Joe was extremely knowledgeable, flexible with change orders, and responded to our every need during this project. His entire team was professional, courteous, detailed orientated and kept a very clean work site. I would highly recommend Depiano contractors to all my friends and family along with being very excited to conquer another project together. The Rogers read more
