Recent General Contractors Reviews in San Carlos
- FSP General ContractorsReview from perspective of first time home owner/buyer who had a long list of projects and home improvements that required a general contractor. I recently purchased a two bedroom home in Mill Valley and after moving in quickly realized that there were a littany of projects that needed to be completed in order to make my new home more comfortable and presentable. I received 3 referrals for different general contractors from friends/family and went on the meet and receive estimates from them. I decided to go with Fred and FSP general contractors for my initial set of priority projects based on my favorable impression of Fred, his fair and straightforward estimates, and clear communication of timelines to both start and complete the initial projects. I decided to continue to work with Fred/FSP for my 2nd/3rd traunch of projects based the high quality of work performed during my first set of projects, adherence to estimates and timelines, and ease of communication during the process. In particular, I appreciated Fred's flexibility with my evolving priorities and his availability to meet/speak/text about questions and/or recomendation pertaining to ongoing work. The work that Fred/FSP did and continues to do for me was diverse but probably representative of the type of work many people are interested in: 1. Remodling of bathroom including istallation of new fixtures and replacement of original tile. 2. A tricky and unusual rebuild of a fireplace and mantle. 3. A custom designed/made concealed wiring scheme for tv mounted over the new fireplace mantle. 4. Replacemant and installation of lighting throughout house. 5. A full review, recomendation (s), and upgrades for electrical integrity of the entrie house. 6. A long list of random tings I thought of along the way! I feel fortunate to have crossed paths with Fred/FSP and will continue to work with them for all home improvement projects moving forward. I highly recommend this company based on the honesty/integrity of Fred and his crew, the adherence to reasonable estimates and timelines, and the high quality of all work performed
- ShamusShamus has helped me keep my cabin in good working order. He is responsible, prompt, friendly, and knowledgeable. He thinks in a 'big-picture' way, meaning he's a problem-solver. Shamus has helped me numerous times which is great since I live far away from my cabin. I completely trust and appreciate him, and will continue to maintain a connection with him, both professionally as well as personally
- Gomez's Handyman Services LLCCharles was very professional, he showed up a few minutes earlier than expected. He accompanied me to Home Depot to make sure proper materials were bought the first time, didn’t over charge me on his quote. Also made the job seem super easy as any pro would.
- Doug Hannan ConstructionWe had a great experience working with Doug Hannan, who is a master builder with decades of experience. He is professional, patient, polite, and very fair. He was flexible and responsive while working with our changing plans, and offered quick and clever solutions to our issues. He doesn't waste time or words. In fact, we've never seen anyone work as quickly and efficiently. Even with our changes, he still finished the project ahead of time and on budget. The results are spectacular, and we are very thankful to Doug as we enjoy our beautiful new deck and pergola
- FSP General ContractorsThese are good guys. Very responsive and professional. We are very happy with rhe work which was completed in a professional, workman like and timely manner. We had a hard time finding a tiler that could handle installing glass tiles and making the diagonal cuts needed. We were so lucky we found Fred. We'll definitely use them for other projects. Highly recommended
- FSP General ContractorsFred and his team at FSP are fantastic. Their work was excellent, they clearly communicated progress and any issues discovered, work was completed on-time and on-budget, and we are planning using them again in our new house.
- Doug Hannan ConstructionExcellent Doug is a very skilled craftsman and was able to figure out our challenging roofline of the new home. He always showed up on time and stuck to the schedule. We would definitely hire him again.
- Alves Rod Tile CoHad to have my 1 1/2 year old bathroom floor re-tiled. Original company refused to fix the creaking floor. Rod did a fantastic job in a timely manner. Super happy with the job. Would definitely hire again. Honest, professional and hard worker.
- FSP General ContractorsThe remodel went very well. The workmen came on schedule and cleaned up well after each day's work. They took the room out to the studs, and re-designed the shower, that is tucked under a staircase, did beautiful tile work, and custom millwork to build two storage drawers in a soffet. I am very happy with the work they did
- Texas Engineered Roofing & General ContractingWe live out of state and were searching for a roofer to replace my mother’s roof. We spent a significant amount of time online researching roofers, interviewing them over the phone, getting inspections, reading online reviews, and speaking with references. We came across all types and eliminated one after the next. Fortunately, we found Texas Engineered Roofing that stood out light years from the rest. We called the company inquiring whether they carried worker’s comp insurance and was provided with a packet that not only included certificates of insurance but also the owner’s credentials, certifications, recent jobs performed, accomplishments, and awards received. That in and of itself made this company stand out from all the others. Everything was so professionally and meticulously prepared, a sign of what was to come. We were very impressed with Brad’s (the owner) knowledge, professionalism, responsiveness, honesty and thoroughness. Brad is extremely qualified; he is a professional engineer to boot. That educational knowledge gave us even more confidence in him. He came at the beginning of the job to inspect the interior of the attic to make sure nothing would be damaged while stapling and to locate where the attic fans should be installed. At the same time he detected other ducts that had to be replaced and completed that repair as well. He was very accommodating with scheduling our job and got the necessary permits in short order. The crew manager (Elias) was on the job from beginning to end. He too provided stellar customer service. He oversaw the project and made sure that quality workmanship was being produced. The crew were very skilled in their tasks, (there was even a dedicated person experienced in turrets) dependable, hardworking, and punctual. They worked in assembly line precision and were very pleasant to be around. The work area was properly prepped and cleaned each day. The job was finished in the agreed upon timeframe. There was no damage to the property or injuries on the job!! They were very easy to work with and immediately responded to any of our concerns. They clearly wanted to make sure that their workmanship warranty would never have to be used. and that the customer would be happy. They took great pride in delivering a top notch roof. We highly recommend them and would use them again

"It took me 2 years of interviewing with design concept with several Bay Area builders before I signed with Valley Hone Builders. Extremely patient team allowed for a year long design and planning, followed by 12 months demolition and build. Even with a major build error, they were professional and ethical, correcting the error and building my dream home. They have been true to their year warranty and even work after hours. Arman (whom I affectionately call second in command) and Joy (award winning designer) where essential team members whom I consider as friends at the competition of the build.

"CertaPro came and did a bid on painting my southern wall last summer. I almost chose them but picked the lowest bid instead. Bad mistake! The lowest bidder (Innovation Painting) totally flaked out on me and kept pushing the job back and eventually just stopped taking my calls. I should have called CertaPro back right away, but it was winter and raining so I let things slide until this summer. I emailed my contact at CertaPro and asked if he wanted to do a re-bid on the job. I also contacted another painter. I didn't hear from my CertaPro contact and figured he didn't want to waste any more of his time with me, and signed a contract with another company. But I was wrong. It turned out that my contact no longer worked with the company, and his emails were being forwarded to the bosses, Steve and Norie Bonbright, who did answer my email and would have been happy to do a re-bid. But it was too late. I had already signed a contract with the other company. Through no fault of their own, CertaPro didn't get the job. But through it all they were polite, professional, and helpful. They even gave me tips on getting the most attractive finish on the job. My house is big, and eventually I'm going to need to paint the other three walls. When I do, CertaPro will be the first company I call.

"Initial estimate was timely, contract was handled electronically which was convenient. The paint job on the exterior is acceptable. Here are the issues I had- there was some communication breakdown between the individual who did the estimate & contract & the office staff so paint color choices for sample that were painted after the power wash were a last minute scramble and paint colors chosen did not seem clear to the workers. I was not impressed with the prep work that was done; nail holes not filled, areas that had peeling paint were not smoothed well so there is a texture variance. In the interior I had a new cabinet painted (had not been installed yet), another cabinet touched up and the interior side of the door to the outside painted. These were left to the last day & done in hurry up mode. There were a couple of problems with the work that was done on these that got corrected that same day but I was left on a wet weather day with an exterior door I couldn't close because the paint was sticky. I understand that weather is not always ideal but the workers should do the work in a way that minimizes the weather impact and causes the least inconvenience to the customer. This was a 2 1/2 day job but the more critical interior work was left to last when the workers were in a hurry to get the work done in the allotted half day. The workers left without giving me a heads up that the finish on the cabinet was still wet & would be wet for at least a day...I found out the hard way. I did ask the company to come back to fill the nail holes on the door jamb (this is something even an amateur would have known to do before painting), and to correct some ugly brush marks and areas that hadn't been adequately coated on the door & cabinet door. They did this with no complaint but the fact it was needed in the first place is the reason I would not use them again or give a recommendation to a friend. I was also disappointed to find paint spray on a window, several plants and a bit of walkway. Could be my expectations are not attainable but I do feel this company fell down on communication, preparation (which is something they make a big deal about in their advertising) and attention to detail in areas that are important (the interior side of the door & cabinet that are always viewed at close range).
