With 24 yrs of design experience and 19 years of Construction experience. this combination of experience minimizes questions back and forth between contractor and designer during construction to allow faster completion. Licensed contractor #932818.

"Shaun made the process of my kitchen repair very easy during a time that was pretty stressful for my family. We had a sink leak and needed to repair parts of the kitchen with water damage. As a result we were working with an insurance adjustor which can be stressful for any contractor. Shaun was a professional and really helped in communicating with the adjustor. He also finished the work multiple days early which was much appreciated since we were in a hotel during repairs. It allowed us to focus on the next stage of our repairs the painting and move ahead of schedule. He also repaired a cabinet that was previously broken and not part of our project without me even asking. I really appreciated his kindness in doing this."

General building contractor who currently works independently and is looking to grow business to hire one employee. I do mostly carpentry and cabinet making my self. I do perform other trades depending on how much there is. I have good dependable subcontractors that I call when necessary. Depending on the size of the job, I ask for down payment and progress payments or may just wait to bill the job once it is complete.

"Mike, Anna, and Johnny make a great team who I have enjoyed working with while making our custom home project come to life. Building a home is a stressful time, and there were a lot of curveballs thrown on our project through COVID, new PG&E rules and government regulations, and a law firm that took WAY longer than needed to draw up a utility easement with our neighbor. Every construction project is unique and will have its own issues pop up. Itâ s how the problems are handled that matters. MHB was honest and professional throughout the process, and you can tell they care about the ownerâ s satisfaction with the end product."

Small family owned company. General Construction, Electrical and Drywall. $100 emergency service charge first hour, $65 any hour after.

"Okay, I never write reviews, but I had to this time because Seth is amazing. I moved into my house 6 months ago and the day after we moved in, our doorbell stopped working. 3 electricians later (2 of whom were through my home warranty), the doorbell still isn't working. They tried everything and they just couldn't find the transformer to fix the doorbell. In comes Seth....his first visit, he diagnosed the problem and then had to order parts. A few weeks later once the parts come in, he comes over and within 1 hour it is fixed...he solved a problem that others thought were impossible. He's my doorbell savior and it's just in time....all those trick or treaters now can ring my doorbell for some candy.....THANK YOU SETH!!! Affordable, knowledgeable, friendly and most importantly, can fix the problem - what more could I possibly ask for?"

Home Building questions, answered by experts

Framing tends to be the longest step in the construction process, especially for larger homes. It takes anywhere from one week to a couple of months, depending on the house size, the number of people on the construction crew, and the time of year. The design stage often takes a long time, too. Some people spend months or even years contemplating their house’s size, layout, and materials before construction begins.

Most cottages are around 1,000 square feet, making them smaller than most other styles. However, cottages are defined more by their decor and architectural focus on simplicity, functionality, and a connection to nature than they are by a rigid square footage or floor plan. While cottages are defined more by their charm and appearance than size, the smaller footprint does help maximize the comfort and charm, and it keeps the focus on connection to nature and family.

The average size of a pool house is between 180 and 220 square feet. Small pool sheds may only be 25 to 50 square feet, while luxury pool houses you can use as a guest house can sit between 200 and 400 square feet. Consider what you’ll use the space for and how much of your yard it will take up when deciding on the right size for your project.

As long as you pull the appropriate permits to build your ADU, it will contribute to your property’s total livable square footage. This is even true for basement conversion ADUs despite the living area sitting below grade. Keep in mind that permanent improvements, especially those that add square footage, tend to increase your home value, which can affect your property taxes.

Yes, most general contractors require a down payment for project completion. A reasonable down payment for a contractor is 10% to 25% of the total project cost, though that will vary based on project size and location. The down payment helps cover the upfront costs of materials and permits and helps ensure payment for the project at hand.
