They are professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. We highly recommend Orion General Contractors. **★★★★★ — marshall sabatini \| architecture+, Aug. 2016** > Orion GC has constructed many of our design and every time they have met or exceeded the clients expectations. Whenever a client asks if I can recommend a GC to build our design, Orion GC is always a the top of the list. Pete and his team do a masterful job of executing the design intent and always leave the client feeling good about their decision. In a world where word of mouth referrals are very important in the decision making process, I am confident that if we recommend Orion GC, they will go above and beyond to ensure the project is done right and the client will tell their friends and family to call us for their architectural needs and Orion GC to build it. **★★★★★ — lisa furey interiors, March 2014** > Orion Contractors has worked on multiple projects I have been involved in. Pete Maruca, owner, and his team work extremely hard to deliver a spectacular remodel or new build - and that is exactly what they produce. > Orion goes above and beyond what is expected in order to remain on time and on budget - and has always exceeded my expectations. > This team is highly experienced, knowledgeable and bright. > There are always challenges and surprises that "crop up" in remodels - Orion analyzes the challenges and methodically works thru them - successfully. > Working with Pete is always a good time - not only is highly capable, but he is extremely funny! **★★★★★ — Sherman & Gosweiler Inc.,, June 2013** > We worked with Orion providing custom cabinetry and millwork on the "Elegant City Living" project pictured here. They were one of the best GCs we've had the pleasure of working with. Always mindful of the needs and time constraints of the client, they made the project flow smoothly for everyone involved. Having seen the finished product, I can attest to the highest quality of their work throughout. **★★★★★ — User, Feb. 2013** > I am an interior designer currently working on a Main Line renovation with Orion. They are a great team to work with - from the owner to the subcontractors. When I need something done, it is done quickly and with attention to detail. The quality of their work is wonderful, the team is very knowledgable and efficient, and their work is clean. If you are looking for a high-quality home renovation I highly recommend working with Orion. **★★★★★ — annfp, Feb. 2013** > It is a pleasure to share my bathroom remodeling experience using Orion Construction. I was first introduced to Peter Maruca, the owner of Orion Construction, from a neighbor who had a great experience and a Fantastic Bathroom! > The job supervisor is always available by way of phone, email and site visits. He often checks in to make sure that everything is to my satisfaction. He has provided us with reputable tile and plumbing manufacturers from which to source our supplies. He also provides and sticks to a time schedule that keeps the job moving in a timely fashion. > > The subcontractors involved, from plumbers to carpenters and tile workers are top-notch. They are highly skilled in their fields and treat my home with care. The floors are protected from debris and cleanup at the end of each day is perfect. > I highly recommend without reservation Orion Construction for home remodeling. **★★★★★ — Peggy Hart Home, Jan. 2013** > I did a huge amount of building with Orion. I got to know several of the head contractors and we became best friends. Their hands on knowledge and work ethic was excellent. I was extremely impressed by all their subs, and the whole process, which lasted several years was not too painful because of the fun we had. It's all in the people, and Orion has a great bunch of people. We've had small "new construction" issues, and they have responded immediately to my calls. ## Selected projects - [Center City Stylin'](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/center-city-stylin-pj-vj~185403) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - [Modern Style](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/modern-style-pj-vj~166256) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 9 - [Sophisticated High-Rise Condo](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sophisticated-high-rise-condo-pj-vj~6557440) - Location: Philadelphia, PA - Photos: 5 - Description: This apartment was gutted to the studs and transformed into the ultimate bachelor pad... - [Drinks and a Movie](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/drinks-and-a-movie-pj-vj~168081) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - Description: This stunning addition houses a new bar and professional-grade theater on the first floor with a massive master suite on the second floor. - [Luxe Living in Center City](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/luxe-living-in-center-city-pj-vj~6557346) - Location: Philadelphia, PA - Photos: 6 - Description: This is a brand-new fit-out of exquisite raw space... - [Old Meets New](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/old-meets-new-pj-vj~166127) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 8 - Description: The open central core of this farmhouse (c. 1865) was filled in with a tasteful addition linking two wings and allowing for a new, modern kitchen.
