James Marcella

Founder

James “Jim” Marcella opened Marcella’s Flooring Center in April 1969 after spending several years in his family’s appliance business. Jim started his company with the commitment to excellence in offering the finest products available, hiring the most capable sales and installation staff so that he could provide his customers with high quality products at competitive prices.
Jim was proud to have attended Siena College majoring in business and that was evident to this very day as the firm has been able to flourish in good times and bad, through many business recessions over the past 57 years.
The company continually grew its product and service offerings to remain a place where people could do business finding the flooring solutions that they wanted for their homes, apartments and businesses. Jim guaranteed that his customers would be completely satisfied. On rare occasions the company would have to make alterations if a customer was not completely satisfied.
Jim prided himself in recruiting and training the very best people in the flooring industry with some of his current associates having 30+ years with the firm. Jim always maintains a direct relationship with his customers boasting that they and their friends and families have continued buying flooring products from him since the firm was founded almost 60 years ago!

Lead Estimator/Commercial Installer

Adam emigrated from Poland to America in 1995 as a young boy and found part time work with a flooring installation firm. One of the installations was contracted for Marcella’s Flooring that was very complicated and required specialty techniques. 
Jim Marcella recognized how competent Adam was and within a short time Jim offered him a full time position in 1998 with his firm. 
Adam attended many specialty installation seminars that established him as the most experienced installer in the region.
