Our History

Rooted in the Past. Focused on the Future.

For more than 60 years, Ricciuti Enterprise has been building homes and communities that stand the test of time. Family-owned and operated since 1958, our company was founded on a commitment to quality, craftsmanship, and customer care—values that continue to shape everything we do today. Headquartered in Plum Borough, PA, we proudly build throughout Allegheny County, Salem and Mount Pleasant Townships, and Plum Borough, creating homes where families can thrive for generations.

Building with Heart – As If We Lived There

At Ricciuti Enterprise, we don’t just build houses—we create homes where families can make memories. Our mission is simple: to develop communities and build homes, additions, and remodels where value and quality meet lifestyle.
“We build projects our customers can be proud of and enjoy their lives in,” says Dom Ricciuti Jr. “Choosing a homebuilder is a big decision—it’s about trust. Our customers invite us into their lives, and we take that responsibility seriously. That’s why we build each home as if we were going to live there ourselves.”
And in some cases, we do. Dom Jr. lives in Chavelle Estates, one of the company’s newest developments, while his father and business partner, Dom Sr., calls Rockland Manor—one of our earlier communities—home. For us, homebuilding isn’t just business. It’s personal.

A Family Tradition of Excellence

Ricciuti Enterprise is more than a company—it’s a legacy. It all began in 1958 with Dom Jr.’s grandfather, then continued through his uncles, and now to Dom Sr. and Dom Jr., who lead the company today.
“Our father-son partnership is built on mutual respect,” says Dom Jr. “I’m lucky to have a mentor with decades of experience. My father listens, teaches, and guides me as we take this company into the future.”
Dom Jr.’s passion for building started young. At just 13 years old, he worked laborer jobs alongside his father, learning firsthand what it takes to build a home from the ground up. He later earned a Civil Engineering degree from the University of Pittsburgh, worked for large commercial building firms, and then joined his father in 2001, blending his hands-on experience, technical expertise, and passion for construction.
This unique combination of tradition and innovation makes Ricciuti Enterprise different from other homebuilders. “We honor our history while staying focused on what’s next,” says Dom Jr.

Building for Tomorrow

As homebuilding evolves, Ricciuti Enterprise stays ahead of the curve—whether it’s the latest design trends, building codes, or energy efficiency standards. “Building a home isn’t just about today—it’s about the future,” says Dom Jr. “From energy-efficient appliances to solar-ready homes and EV charging stations, we’re always thinking ahead.”
Modern home trends are also changing. More buyers are opting for:

  • Ranch-style homes with open floor plans instead of traditional two-story homes
  • Spacious, eat-in kitchens instead of formal dining rooms
  • Low-maintenance communities that cater to changing lifestyles

One trend that’s here to stay? Modern farmhouse style—a perfect blend of rustic charm and contemporary design, featuring clean lines, expansive windows, and open spaces.

A Commitment to Excellence

Our dedication to quality extends beyond the homes we build—reflected in our industry leadership. Dom Sr. was the 2002 President of the Builders Association of Metropolitan Pittsburgh (BAMP) and a two-time Builder of the Year (2000 & 2005). Dom Jr. continues this tradition, serving on BAMP’s Executive Board and representing the company at the Pennsylvania Builders Association.

With five Housing Excellence Awards from BAMP, our reputation for craftsmanship and customer satisfaction speaks for itself.

But at the end of the day, what matters most is the experience we provide to every homeowner.

“Our customers aren’t just clients—they become part of the Ricciuti family,” says Dom Jr.

That’s what 60+ years of homebuilding with heart looks like.
