From design to completion, a BOCCIA job has Rizziero's stamp on it. He has personally designed and executed well over 25,000 jobs. These jobs range from the most complicated of waterproofing solutions to restoration of historical landmarks. Some of the most prominent New York Architects and Engineers consult with Rizziero and refer him on their most challenging projects.
