J Marchese & Sons works on public infrastructure. A local news outlet reported in July 2026 that the Everett company was starting paving and milling on the third stage of a five-phase downtown streetscape project, and its Procore profile describes an earthwork specialist whose three listed projects average roughly $74 million apiece. That scale explains the reviews it has collected. All four written accounts on its Google page concern the driving of company vehicles rather than any job performed. A cyclist commuting to work in July 2026 wrote about being yelled at by an employee in a company vehicle; a February 2026 reviewer said a truck nearly hit two people in traffic; a 2025 reviewer described a driver behaving recklessly on the turnpike. The page averages 2.1 stars across 7 ratings. OSHA publishes an inspection record for J. Marchese & Sons, Inc. covering a work site in Wayland, Massachusetts, filed under site preparation contractors and carrying a violation summary. Its Better Business Bureau page lists the business as neither accredited nor rated, with 53 years in business, filed under sewer cleaning — a category its Procore profile does not match, where it is listed as a general contractor doing earthwork. For a house project, this is not the kind of contractor being described here: the work on record is municipal paving, milling and utility-scale site preparation. If you are contracting at that scale, ask about the OSHA inspection and the current safety programme before bidding.
“Everett contractor J Marchese & Sons will be beginning the paving and milling operations as it begins the third-stage of a major five-phased downtown streetscape improvement project on Wednesday.”

I had an encounter with an employee of this company. I was on a bicycle commuting to work and he was verbally abusive and extremely angry about my handling of my bicycle. Nothing I did affected his travel or the driving of the company vehicle, but he harassed me by yelling at me and acted very aggressive toward me. In other words, he was a jerk. If a company hired someone like him, I'd steer way clear of it. They should suggest anger management for their employee.
This crew should be reminded that all is seen and heard with modern technology. People keep receipts. (Video)....
Really dangerous driver, I saw this truck almost hit two people while in traffic
This company hires people that are reckless drivers seen on the turnpike today if I didn't brake he would have side swipped us then later on I saw him acting reckless again
