We've used him for years for multiple jobs. I have always found his pricing reasonable. He's always been straightforward. He's always explained things as we went along. He's been open to changes as needed and he does great work.

The work was excellent. The response was very quick and I was very pleased. He went out of his way to get the work done quickly because it was a front door and I needed it done quickly. I will be using them again. I was very impressed with the price.
Description of Work: I used David Hooks Construction Services to replace a door jamb on the front door.

I actually am here to rave about David's work. We have used his three times (see above) and EVERY time, he has been professional, prompt, cost effective, and he does beautiful, clean work. He also was very generous with good advice. And came in right at the budgets he bid. With this much construction going on in our lives, it has been very important that people show up when they say they will. Without exception, the people David has sub-contracted to work on our jobs have also been extremely professional, competent, shown up on time, cleaned up after themselves, and CAN do what they have promised. David has "that thing" that makes him a joy to have around, which is also important through the extreme stresses of remodeling. He doesn't seem to take offense when things get tense around him, is a good mediator, and able to come up with long-term useful solutions to seemingly insurmountable problems. Call him. We only think about our own construction needs in relation to his availability!
Description of Work: David Hooks was our general contractor taking a 4 walled structure with plumbing and nothing else into a 3 room elegant and function home office building with beautiful sliding doors, cathedral ceilings, sound proofing, and many other architectural and design details. He then was our general contractor when we remodeled our living room, including completely changing where stairs were, filling in a sunken living room with concrete, all new windows and doors. Currently he is our on retainer advice giver for a kitchen spruce up, helping us with what we cannot do ourselves.

This remodeling went extremely well. David completed the job in the timeframe he estimated it would take to finish the job, and there were no surprises. I would hire him again to do any future remodeling or contracting work for us. He is honest, straight forward, and very professional. His estimates were accurate. I would be happy to provide more details on the job "from start to finish" if more information is needed. Please email me at merlelustig@cox.net.
Description of Work: Kitchen remodel was fabulous. The old kitchen was demolished, walls, windows, and doors were moved the ceiling was raised, a skylight was installed, new cabinets, and plumbing fixtures were installed, wood floors were refinished, new appliances were installed, and gorgeous granite counter tops, tile, and a door onto the deck was installed. This job went extremely smoothly. The general contractor, David Hooks, worked closely with my husband and me to resolve issues and negotiate change orders. We had very good communications with him. It is an amazingly gorgeous kitchen. The remodeling of two full bath and one half bath went very well. Gorgeous granite countertops, new cabinets, and plumbing fixtures installed. The only noteworthy problem was the subcontractor who did the tiling. He was running too many jobs at one time and did not lay the floor tile in the master bath as we had requested. The plumber was excellent. He has been available to address any minor problems that have occurred since the remodel. Again the general contractor did a very good job, managed the subcontractors, and worked closely with us to resolve issues as they arose. Remodel family room: David Hooks crew moved walls, raised the ceiling, and installed doors. All went very well. We highly recommend David Hooks Construction. The company does great work, maintains great communications with the client, and is reasonably priced. David's subcontractors were all excellent except the tile subcontractor. The electrical subcontractor was very good although a bit over priced.

David is always prompt, thorough, meticulous and well organized. He works to a very high standard, higher than mine in many instances! His subs have worked with him for years and they are extremely high quality as well. Because I've done so many projects with him (I would NOT use anyone else now) I've gotten to know them all. In Santa Cruz, where the "flake factor" is so high, David's attention to detail, intelligence and professionalism completely distinguish him from other builders I've used. My home remodel, a ten week project, was finished exactly on time and as promised. He tells you exactly what is happening, never glossing over how long something will take or how much it will cost. You know precisely where you stand. David's bid will not be your lowest, but it will be as precise as possible given the information available. His bids have come in the middle of the range when I did comparisons (which frankly I don't bother to do anymore.) I look forward to doing projects with him--imagine that. He makes it fun and collaborative.
Description of Work: I've worked with David Hooks a number of times over the past ten years, both for commercial and residential remodels, repairs--anything I need a builder for. He has renovated my spa in Saratoga and remodeled my townhouse in Santa Cruz in 2001. That remodel included kitchen, master bath, and everything in between. Since then I have used him for numerous small projects on an as-needed basis.
