Behind every finished street, foundation and water main is a crew of people with different skills working together. DiFabio Construction Company regularly looks for masons, machine operators, general laborers and project managers. Here is how each role fits into our work.

Masons

Masons are the heart of our masonry division, the trade the company was founded on in 1972. They place and finish concrete, build and repair structural elements, and set curbs and walkways. The work rewards care and pride in a finished surface that will be seen for years.

Machine operators

Operators run the backhoes, tracked and wheeled excavators, skid steers and bulldozers in our fleet. On excavation and utility jobs, a skilled operator works within inches of existing lines, curbs and trees, so precision and judgment matter as much as speed.

General laborers

Laborers keep a job moving: preparing sites, supporting pipe crews in utility work, handling material, setting up traffic control and keeping the site safe and organized. It is also where many people learn the trade and find the path they want to grow into.

Project managers

Project managers plan and coordinate the work: schedules, crews, equipment, material, inspectors and clients. On public projects for municipal, state and federal owners, they are the link between the plans and what happens on site.
