Gilbert Construction

I strongly don’t recommend using Gilbert Construction – “Terry Gilbert” (CA License number #1002121). I have filed multiple complaints with the California Contractors State License Board (CSLB) against Gilbert Construction, and he is being disciplined by CSLB for not using contracts on jobs, unprofessional work, and incorrect invoices (i.e., over-billing). He bought his business from Larry Nau (Larry Nau Craftsman), and Nau is unprofessional, unethical, and a liar (e.g., also lies on his invoices and overcharges). FYI - Nau is semi-retired and gets paid by Gilbert Construction (so they are basically in business together). Nau performed unprofessional work on my house, including major construction defects, and takes no responsibility for them. I have tried to contact Nau and Gilbert and they don’t respond. My house not only has major construction defects, but also major safety issues (i.e., incorrectly installed deck railings with glass that are not to code and are unsafe with up to a two-story fall!!!). I have documentation and evidence to prove all this. Gilbert basically continues Nau’s unprofessional business practices through Gilbert Construction. The same unprofessional business practices (e.g., not using contracts, unprofessional work, over-billing, lies, etc.), and the same two unprofessional employees (that commit major construction defects) just moved from “Larry Nau Craftsman” to “Gilbert Construction”. Again, I strongly recommend NOT using either of these companies. If you have used them in the past, do what I am doing and have a Construction Defect Expert inspect their work!!!
