Thomas Sommer is a great contractor and a genuinely fantastic human being…read more My parents spent a large portion of their savings to purchase a home in San Diego to be closer to family. Soon after they moved to their new home which was built only 3 years before they purchased it, it became clear there was a signings that construction defect on the second floor with a large leak into the ceiling which was due to incorrect installation of a sliding door. This was a known defect which had not been transparently disclosed by the prior owner. We attempted to contact the contractor who had built the home without success. After months of meeting with other contractors to get this door replaced and reinstalled, we found Sommer Construction. Thomas met with us and was incredibly empathetic - he insisted that rather than repair it himself - he would help us contact the home builder and facilitate the repair being done under warranty. When we first heard this idea, we didn't really want to go down this path because we didn't think there was any way this could work. Given the long ordeal, we simply wanted to pay for it and have it repaired without the hassle of arguing and fighting with someone (especially given that Covid was ongoing). After speaking to Tom and considering how expensive the repair was going to be, we thought why not give it a chance. Tom was convinced that this repair should be repaired under warranty by the person who built the home. It seemed to good to be true that someone would go through all of this hassle and go out of their way to help us get this done. This just speaks to the kind of person Thomas is, he tracked down the original builder and held him responsible for the repair. He then guided us through the negotiations and repairs with the original contractor - taking time out of his busy schedule all because he is a genuinely good and empathetic human being. It is so refreshing to meet someone like this and we cannot express how grateful we are to Thomas Sommer. He gives contractors a good name. If you read the other reviews you will quickly see that this is just the way that Thomas is and how he runs his company. The more we got to know Thomas we found that he is simply a man of principle first and foremost. If we ever need any project done, he is the first person we would call for sure! Cannot recommend him highly enough.

Sadly, I'm updating my review and it isn't good…read more The grout on the kitchen floor is coming out all over at a year and nine months. There's only one person in the house and with the pandemic, nobody else has been here. There isn't much traffic in that room. I contacted Thomas on 1/11/21. I asked about a warranty and explained about the grout and that the floor was creaking. He was a bit defensive - he'd done the job right - but said to call him back in a week and we'd look into it. I called again on 1/20/21 as requested; no response. I called again 1/28; no response. Ghosting your clients when there is an issue with your work is really problematic. Even if the warranty is over, it's best to find out what has happened. For this, I'm going to hire someone else to regrout and I think the problem should be solved - I've since realized the creaking is coming only where the tiles are missing grout so it should be an easy fix. That said, you should think twice about using Sommer Construction; what if the situation is bigger? And, if it is, you can always claim against his Contractors bond with the State of CA to get resolution if he ghosts you.

Ray went above and beyone in tracking down the finish pieces to go with the tile I had selected when the home store I purchased it at came up short. The schedule I was provided was followed to the letter, and the communication was great. Since an insurance company was involved, I relied on them to provide the insurance company the necessary information to reimburse me for unforseen electrical issues, which they did with ease. Definitely consider hiring Crane to do your remodel!

There was a lot of old wood and he took the time to go over each section with me, replacing what was too far gone and saving what we could. Other companies didn't even send a guy out and did their quote from Google earth pictures. The only other company I got serious with I had to beg to check how many layers I had and added 2000$ more just to tear the other layer off. I shudder to think what they would have added to plywood the entire thing. I have a large awning in the back, about 60 feet long across the entire back of the house. It has leaked since I moved in. JD fixed it for a 500$ add on. Best 500$ I ever spent. Roofs are expensive and stressful, I can't say enough about how happy I am with the job he did.

We found him working with neighbors. He is dependable, honest and communicates well. He explained the process and had us inspect each step as it was completed. What started out as a painting project ended up being a restoration, which in the end was a good decision. There was some wood replacement and quite a bit of sanding and filling that had to be done. After the project was complete there was a five-day extreme heat wave which caused a normal micro-movement of wood resulting in cracking of the paint at a few joints. Indy came immediately to repair it and did it without attitude. We are very happy with his work and would recommend him anytime. His prices are more than fair, his work ethic is strong, he knows his materials, he updates on progress, and stands behind his work.
