In 1954, Mariano Cardillo, an Italian immigrant and an expert mason, started a plastering and stucco company with his sons. With hard work and exceptional quality, the Cardillo's owned one of the biggest commercial plastering companies in Connecticut. After a lifetime of working and learning from his father and brothers, Thomas Cardillo started a company specializing in high-end residential and commercial plastering. 18 years after TCP was founded, the same craftsmanship, considerate customer service, comprehensive project and site management, and thorough attention to detail has been prevalent to our success.
The majority of our applications are three-coat portland cement stucco systems, incorporated with acrylic finish coats for use on the exterior of a building. We also specialize in three-coat gypsum and veneer plaster systems for use on the interior walls and ceilings of a building. With these two systems, the variation of finishes can be endless. From rough-aged finishes to polished Venetian plasters, our experience allows us to give our customers exactly what they want, no matter the style. Having proficient knowledge of not only today's materials but also the materials used over the last century allows us to be involved in the difficult restoration projects throughout Connecticut.
