Why Is Tom Capizzi a Home Improvement Contractor?
More importantly, why should you care?
You could say I was born for this. I come from a long line of builders, craftsmen, and customer-first business owners. Following in the footsteps of both of my grandfathers and my father, I learned early on what it really takes to succeed in this business: do what you say you’re going to do, and do it with quality.
That philosophy shaped who I am, and it defines how we operate at Capizzi Home Improvement today.
A Legacy Built on Craftsmanship and Character
Grandpa Capizzi, my father’s father, was a master finish carpenter. He was also a jazz guitarist and a talented chef, but his true passion was the art of building. His values were simple and unshakable: your word is everything, and your work should be exceptional. I still remember how upset he’d get when he saw poorly done jobs from other contractors. He’d shake his head and say, “If you’re going to do a job, do it right.”
Papa Joe Coughlin, my mom’s father, was a true entrepreneur and customer service man. He ran a small store, managed a local Howard Johnson, and eventually became a homebuilder on Cape Cod. Back in the 1970s, he helped young families buy their first homes with a handshake and a promise. His newspaper ad read:
“New Home for Sale. No Money? No Problem. Call me, Joe Coughlin, Builder.”
He would loan people the down payment just to help them get started. He believed that success came from helping others get what they needed.
Then there’s my father, Tom Capizzi Sr., who started Capizzi Home Improvement in 1976 right here in Cotuit, in the same building we still call home today. Like his father, he was a skilled carpenter and a man of his word. He also loved the guitar and cooking, which must be something in the genes.
Keeping the Tradition Alive
As a third-generation tradesman and business owner, I feel a deep responsibility to carry on this legacy. I’ll be honest, I can’t play an instrument and I don’t cook, but I am competitive. I race sports cars on tracks across the country, and I bring that same drive to our work here at Capizzi.
I constantly push to improve every aspect of our company. I challenge our team to raise the bar on craftsmanship, service, and communication. And yes, just like my Papa did back in the day, we still offer options like no money down to make projects accessible for more families.
What matters most to me is the same thing that mattered most to my grandfathers and my father: do what you say you’re going to do, and do it with pride.
