About Us
About UsAt Marek, we believe a company is like a building: It's only as strong as the foundation on which it is built. Our foundation is forged from a 75-year commitment to quality and service unequaled by anyone in our industry. Marek entered the fledgling drywall industry and almost immediately changed it with the way we purchased, delivered and installed drywall in the market. Through our strong industry relationships and partnerships, we have since diversified our portfolio to include ceilings, acoustical treatment, fabric panels, flooring, paint, shades and day lighting solutions as well as turn-key remodeling, maintenance and improvement services in major markets extending from locations in Texas, Oklahoma and Georgia.
As Marek has grown, so has our responsibility as a role model in both the industry and the communities we serve. Marek is an active leader in industry organizations where we strive to instill our ethics and values. Marek's industry leadership also includes technology innovations like Building Information Modeling (BIM) to deliver faster, safer, and more efficient projects with general contractors, architects, and owners.
For more than 75 years, Marek has shaped the industry by constantly striving for excellence. Today, we continue to raise the standards for quality of work through innovations like BIM, workforce development initiatives like the Construction Career Collaborative (C3), and much more.
In every aspect of our work, it is in our nature to exceed expectations as well as remain true to the values and principles that have always defined us. It's what allows us to give our customers piece of mind on both their most recent project as well as their next one. That is the Marek difference.

Marek is committed to efficient planning and training that makes the safest possible workplace a reality.Ethics - We believe in doing the right thing even when no one is looking.
