Green California Builders specializes in the design and remodeling of kitchens, bathrooms, outdoor landscape, roofing, additions and garage conversions in the Bay Area. Our #1 priority is our clients satisfaction on every renovation. $5,000 Minimum Job.

"Green California Builders exceeded our expectations. We interviewed several companies, but they stood out from the start with their professionalism and honest, no-BS approach. What I appreciated most was their transparency—there were no hidden fees or vague answers. The project manager was always available to answer our questions, even on weekends. When there was a delay on a specific tile we had chosen, they let us know immediately and offered great alternatives. The final result is stunning. Our new bathroom has custom cabinetry, matte black fixtures, and this amazing herringbone tile wall that’s now my favorite part of the house. It’s rare these days to find contractors who are so detail-oriented and respectful of your home. If you’re thinking about a remodel, you won’t regret going with them."

"Robert from V&G Construction transformed my 2B2B condo with exceptional skill and professionalism. Recommended by a friend, he expertly guided me through every step of the remodeling process, from securing permits to selecting materials and paint colors. Despite my initial reservations about remodeling, Robert's straightforward approach made it far more manageable. His practical advice proved invaluable, and he consistently exceeded my expectations with his work. Robert's craftsmanship is truly top-notch, evident in every detail of the finished project. One standout moment was when he and his team efficiently rearranged my pantry and refrigerator to accommodate the dimensions of the new fridge I purchased. Their quick action and attention to detail ensured a seamless transition, and I couldn't be happier with the result. Not only am I thrilled with the outcome of my condo, but several neighbors who witnessed the transformation have also expressed interest in hiring Robert for their own projects. His reputation for excellence precedes him, and I wholeheartedly endorse V&G Construction to anyone in need of remodeling assistance."

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts

No, a structural engineer is not the same as a builder. A structural engineer is an expert in all things related to the structural integrity of a building. The structural engineer is responsible for calculating the correct materials in terms of load-bearing capacity and overall structural safety. Structural engineers do not perform the actual building of the house or other structures. Rather, the builder executes the plans and designs specified by the structural engineer.

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.

Above all, the downside to building a new house is a longer timeline. You need several months to finish the build, depending on the supply chain and labor availability in the meantime. Building a home compared to buying one is also more expensive, both in the building process and when it comes to mortgage rates and property taxes.

Modular homes last an average of between 50 and 75 years, and high-quality modular homes can last for 100 years with proper maintenance. For comparison, a standard home lasts 50 to 100 years and can push to 150 or longer with good maintenance. Modular homes provide better long-term value in that they are significantly more affordable and can last almost as long, but some buyers are wary of modular home longevity, so the actual value if you sell could be lower.

Typically, architects do not build homes in a hands-on sense of doing the actual framing, roofing, or other building. Architects usually do not have the training and experience to build the homes they design. An architect would need to know how to do the specific trades required to build a house, which is possible but not a common practice. A general contractor or homebuilder typically oversees the actual details of building the house that the architect designs.
