Finally was able to hire Billy for some rehab work and I couldn't be happier with the results. As a former contractor, I'm always amazed with how poorly the vast majority of contractors communicate. Go ahead, call five contractors. How many answer their phone? How many even respond? You probably already know how many. 1? 2, maybe? This project was a little annoying because I needed it done immediately. Also, it involved working in conjunction with a separate contractor that was working in the home. I was worried that it'd be hard to find a contractor to complete in time. I felt bad having such an immediate need but I wanted to call Billy first. Billy answered, with tools in his hands, mid job. I explained what I needed. He asked the right questions. We setup a time to meet and like clockwork, he showed up on time. Always friendly. Always informative. Bam! Work scheduled. I left Billy the lockbox code and he estimated his finishing time. I called him around that time to coordinate getting him paid. And, of course, the work was already completed. Not only was the work completed sooner than expected which allowed the entire project to progress faster than expected, but it was done perfectly. Which is a word I rarely use. But from the precision of the work, the cleanliness of the work, coordination with other contractors, quality of products he used...and yes, the value of everything involved...perfect! I'm not sure if I'll ever need contracting services in the Yuba/Sutter area again. But if I do, I'm only making one call. The same call you should make. I can't recommend Billy, his crew and his company enough. Quality work at a great value, performed efficiently and precisely and communicated well. Billywood for the win!! read more

After my fence and garage got in the way of a drunk driver driving on a suspended license for a previous dui, I was seriously in need of repair. As I was researching contractors Billywood certainly stood out. The name pulled me in but the excellent service made me stay. Billy and his team worked rapidly and thoroughly to replace my fence and the structural integrity of my garage, in extreme heat I might add. I received constant communication and updates, a new fence and restored garage wall in better condition than before the accident! But you don't have to take my word for it check out the before and after pics! I am truly grateful for Billywood Construction and wood (see what I did there lol) definitely recommend. read more

Billy runs his business just like a pro should!!! He contacted me immediately after I requested a quote. We talked about the scope of the work and how long it would take and the price, all topics were on point. One thing that stood out for me was that Billy was all in on my project. I initially wanted my new backsplash in my kitchen to go right on top of my existing 4" high by 3/4" thick granite backsplash but Billy suggested that I remove the existing backsplash and install the new one from the bottom of the countertop up. Well I'm glad I listened to him!! I would have regretted not doing so! He didn't have to suggest that but he did and after looking at pictures online I was convinced. Billy and his crew started the job and finished it on the day as promised. Billy noticed I had some items in the garage from my kitchen remodel and he offered to get rid of some of my items because he was already going to the dump which was a big help to declutter my garage while I wait for a dump pickup. If you want quality and a pro, I highly suggest Billy and his crew. Kudos to your team Billy and thanks for giving me what I wanted, I enjoy my new look kitchen every single day!! read more

Very dissatisfied with the astronomical quote I received from this business for a shower remodel. This is after knowing the exact costs of material needed for the remodel including tile and granite for bench (which is a little over 2,000). I was roughly quoted at $18,150, this is minus the cost of tile... They responded that this is due to high quality work, I was essentially quoted at $16,000 dollars worth of labor. I don't want to discount the value of skilled labor but I feel like this is a taking advantage of consumers and a labor shortage. Update* A minute after I left this review I was called and harassed by Billy for my honest review. Then spouted off a bunch of things I included in my list that he said I didn't account for such as dumping old shower insert (300) for dump pickup through local business. I already included that in my material price. Update** Billy states that it is an unfair review, that I gave him a vague description, I sent him a picture of the project so he decided to over quote me? How is that fair? So is the actual cost more than $18,150? - Billy is unprofessional and overpriced, he decided to call and hound me don't waste your time because he's probably ripping your off. read more

Billy, did some siding and window trim replacement at my house that had dry rot. He then also painted everything. His work was quality and he got everything done quickly and his prices were on par with others, but I feel his quality was far superior. He is our go to contractor now. read more

I've reached out to Billy and his team for a project to fix up my sunroom. It had water damage and had no foundation. Billy replied very quickly and scheduled an in-person quote after speaking briefly on the phone. After seeing the damage and the room, he offered multiple solutions with varying complexity yet still willing to work with me on the important details. He left nothing out and was very honest the whole way. At no point where he tried to upsell or try to play any tricks, he gave constant communication throughout the project and was very transparent. Billy and his team were able to get started and finish the job quickly with expections exceeding what I had imagined. Highly recommend Billy and his team. The quality of work, constant communication and willingness to work with you to complete your project is phenomenal. read more

So far Billy showed up and met with me to go over what he could do for us. He said he's a few weeks out which I'm fine with that. See u n a few weeks Billy. As far as rats go I'll wait till after the jobs complete. Ok I guess u have to give a star or u can't submit this review. So already on his professionalism 4 showing up and being the first call. read more

Billy and his crew did an excellent job on my housing renovation. I unfortunately had to have a chimney/fireplace taken out and patched over to to leakage and rot around it. Billy was professional and trustworthy with his quote and how the job would proceed. His crew was great, going the extra step to make sure the job was done right. I appreciate how they handled everything and would call on them again in the future. read more

Billywood Construction did a conversion of tub/shower to a walk in shower and they did an amazing job and would recommend them to anyone.

Communication with Billy was perfect. He always got back to me right away. He showed up on time, did an amazing job and was reasonably priced. I'll be calling these guys next time I need them! read more

Our project was a complete remodel of a 74 year old house. We brought down walls, moved a bathroom, and completely changed the layout of the kitchen. One of the most stressful parts of the process was choosing a contractor. After having several look at the house and present bids, we went with Billywood Construction as Billy was the most honest and thorough in his explainations. It was obvious after talking with Billy that other contractors either were hiding or didn't know about issues with the old house that had to be addressed that kept their bids lower. Billywood started when they said they would, and the entire project lasted about as long as was estimated. As with most older homes there were issues discovered once the walls were exposed, as well as requirements by the state (fire sprinklers) that came up that we weren't expecting. Billy always had solutions to these issues and handled every one of them. We are very happy with the results of all of the work that was done which you can see from several of the photos Billy posted here. Billy also follows up to check in on his work to see how things are doing. It's been almost a year since we moved back in and we couldnt be happier with our home. We really lucked out when we found Billywood Construction. We have since referred Billy and his team to family members for projects at their home, which might be the best testimonial I can offer. We highly recommend Billywood Construction. read more

We had someone run their car into our garage damaging both garage doors and the wall in between. Billywood came out and gave us a quote that was very reasonable. When they showed up to do the work, they were prompt and polite. They repaired both doors and completely redid the wall. They perfectly matched my 1960's siding, it looks better now than it did before! The repaired area is stronger and more protected from water damage than it used to be. Highly satisfied and will definitely be going through this company again. read more

Very disrespectful and treated me like i was a spam caller when i needed work done in the Colusa area

I would recommend them wholeheartedly! read more

Excellent!!! My 81 yr old mom needed her tub tore out and a walk-in shower installed, we're so happy we went with Billywood Construction. The job was just completed 6/25/22, everything went exactly as planned, exactly as he stated, on time and no surprises, no hidden cost. Every step was signed off as scheduled. Billy is kind and very caring, willing to do anything to please his customers and he made her feel comfortable from the first meeting. Every single one of us out here looking to do a home project worry about are we going to find a honest, caring person who won't abandon us half way through right? Thank god we found the perfect one. Thank you Billy! read more

I called him for an emergency job $200 to come and look at the issue, They fixed a load baring wall we got taken down for $4k and was charging $800 for trim. We declined the trim and did it our selves for just parts They did give us a ceiling Fan installed which was cool. Docking a star for affordability. But if you have money than I would assume you would give them 5 stars for the Job you really want done. read more

Billy and his crew provide quality workmanship. You pay what you get, and the quality I got was beyond my expectation. I appreciate Billy's level of communication and him taking the time to explain and review my project with me throughout the process. I also appreciate Billy's attention to detail. Billy was very easy to talk to and always respectful. Billy and his crew took their time to get the job done correctly and I can definitely see it in the quality of their work. I'm loving the new fence (so does all the neighbors) and I am enjoying my new walkway & gate very much. Also wanted to add, I've spoken to Billy on three separate occasions when asking for quotes on projects at my old residence in Live Oak. Billy has always been calm-spoken and very easy going. So not sure what the other reviews are talking about saying he's unprofessional, that's not the Billy I spoke to. read more

I used Billywood Construction to frame out an addition in my commercial building. I found their pricing fair and reasonable especially considering the price of lumber right now. The crew showed up on time every time, did exactly what they said they would do in the time frame they stated for completion. His crew was professional, polite and engaging. With my hands in the air, what more could you ask from a contractor? Thank you Billywood Construction for the frame work! read more

I hired Bill and his team to build a post and beam barn. The price quoted was fair and he provided a breakdown of costs and anticipated timelines. They arrived on time everyday and were respectful and kind to our young kids and dogs. It was 90+ degrees most of the days and they took few breaks and a short lunch. Materials and tools were all anticipated accurately and we had no hang ups! I use to work in construction and my wife and I would go out in the evening and check their work. Surprisingly everything was perfect! One of my favorite things about Bill's team was that they were clean. They didn't leave garbage and food wrappers blowing around like the other crew did when we installed our pool. They were professional, met our agreed upon timelines and came in under the other quotes I received. The barn they built is beautiful and we would use Bill again. read more

Billy and his team did a great job on a foundation for an agriculture building we are putting up. His estimate was fair and comparable to others we received, he was organized, and the job finished on schedule. He definitely knew what he was doing, he communicated well and was overall fantastic to work with. read more

Mr. Marcy is a clear communicator, that obviously has experience and talent, in the construction field. The work completed was done was with care and detail. I would recommend Billywood Construction to others that require home improvements or repairs. read more

I was working on the project in San Carlos, where I had a hard time to find a good framer, called Billy and ask if he can help me with the framing. He comes next day for estimate, and start work two days after. A little bit expensive, but can get job done and very responsible. read more

Pricing was fair, but lacked professionalism. No need to go into details, as there is no excuse for the way I was spoken to. Wouldn't recommend. read more

Billy did a great job replacing front porch support beams. I would highly recommend this construction company. I'm happy with the quality of work. They are very professional. read more

I was referred to Billy through a family member that used him for their house remodel. We used him to replace a beam that had dry rot, demo driveway and install pavers, and to build a fence along the property line. Everything turned out great and I have been getting a lot of compliments from the neighbors. Billy was not the cheapest, but I did not pay a penny over the bid. They also followed all the proper steps, including city permits, to ensure quality in their work. Billy is good with communication through text and email. On the first day of construction, he showed up on time, which surprised me, in a good way. With any construction project, you need to pay attention to what is going on and constantly communicate with your contractor. Before every major phase, I asked Billy if we could meet to go over the next steps. This is good practice with any contractor as we both knew what each other was expecting. read more

Billy and crew were on point. Had an exterior wall leak and they came in and repaired it, ahead of schedule and under initial bid. I will be calling them for more projects around the house. I'd give them six stars if I could read more

Needing to have a versatile storage/utilty-laundry/kitchen space installed, I started the daunting task of finding a contractor. Anybody who has done this task, as I have done, knows that it is hard as winning at Roulette. Spin the wheel and you never know what your going to get. Fortunately in today's world, we have yelp, as well as other sources to help narrow down our search. Then if you read reviews and follow through with quotes-you may just get lucky enough and call Billywood Construction. From the start-just calling to set up an appointment, Billy was the first to return my call promptly. He was also the first to come see my wife and I at a time that suited us-and then he actually LISTENED to us! He discussed our options and returned an eMail with a proposal within 24hours. The initial quote was higher than we wanted to go so he then walked us through some cost cutting moves that ultimately got our approval for hiring him. Now the good part. Billy does what he says he's going to do-from start to finish-in the timeline he proposed. His attention to detail and his work ethic are superior. I never met him before this process, and he will always be the first person I call for future projects. He only asked two me for two things....to pay on our agreed times and to write a review, good or bad.......I am know honoring my second part of his request. read more

I don't usually write reviews, but man, Billy and his crew are a cut above any other team I have dealt with. We wanted to convert our second floor balcony into an office room, and it was a non-trivial project due to structural/roof intersections. We got a few quotes and Billy was not the cheapest but was still very reasonable. The difference was the level of professionalism and trust we got right off the bat during the quote. It was an easy decision to skip past the cheaper quotes and go with Billy, and we were right. This level of honesty, attention to detail, incredible professionalism, full management of the project is hard to find. Billy completed the project almost exactly per original predicted timeline even with all the extras we added. Colin and Jose worked tirelessly and never cut corners - they would point out small details that they weren't happy with (even ones that i would not notice) and would go over it again till they were satisfied with their own quality. Small details like the "feel" when the door closes, or seeing how the draft affects the door closing. We have had several large projects done on our house and this is the first time where i feel completely happy with the results. I also concur with other reviews here that you don't have to worry about "last payment syndrome" with Billy. He meticulously sees every final detail through and doesn't vanish after final payment like my previous contractors did. The joke from our neighbors is that when the big earthquake strikes, we should all run into the room that Billy, Colin and Jose built because we know that is one that will definitely survive. read more

Billy and his team did an excellent job on our fence. Seriously, quality work at a fair price. He was fast and communicated throughout the entire project. The compliments have already started pouring in. Couldn't be happier! read more

Billywood Construction - General Contractors Near Me

Billy was our first contractor hired for the updates to my former family home located in San Carlos, between 2011-2012. I was getting the 50 year old home updated to sell it. Billy worked on many projects within the home, kitchen plumbing, main bathroom complete floor update which include subfloor support beams, a new extended redwood patio in the backyard, and much more. We worked together very well and each project was discussed a written bid was presented and he came in on our budget for each update. Much of his work was done while we were not at this location because our main home is in another county here in Northern Calif. But pictures of the progress of all of this work was sent to me via iphone. Each project was finished in a timely manner and he always came in on our agreed budget. Billy is a man of many talents who possess a sincere and honest character. I can highly recommend his work. LF read more

I only review company that really deserve recognition. The owner of this company will make sure you're happy and will follow up once he is done. I've worked with other company's and they usually don't call back once they get payment. Trust and honesty is hard to find. Give him a call and you notice a difference from other company. Cheers and more cheers to come! read more

I contacted Billy after reading a next door review, to do a few projects in a house that I had just moved into - adding a kitchen window and other small repairs from electrical to plumbing. He promptly returned my phone call, and scheduled time to go through my house with the list of projects, explaining what was needed for each one, and which ones were not necessary. He was willing to do the work, and his estimate was reasonable. I was impressed with Billy's knowledge of all aspects of the work, as well as that of his team. He always came when he said he would, returned phone calls, email or texts promptly, took time to answer questions, assessed problems and came up with affordable solutions. His team did excellent work which Billy managed and supervised throughout. They were always pleasant, knowlegeable and reliable, from the preparation to clean up. I was very pleased, and they did an excellent job. Bottom line - a quality company! read more

I have worked with Billy in the past on projects, and appreciated his ethics. He's a good guy to work with.

I don't normally leave reviews but I found this company, and Billy, to be very unprofessional. In the beginning he was very nice regarding my quote but once I hired him, it was difficult to schedule when he would come, there was very little communication, and once he did arrive, he spent 2 hours then left and came back next day for 2 more hours work. The workmanship was very poor, he left much incomplete, and even my neighbor who does work with remodeling and construction was very surprised by what this company did (and chose not to do). I requested damage to be repaired and it was a battle, and his attitude was very unprofessional when I made this request. They also expected payment before I even saw the completed project. I will not hire them again read more

It was a pleasure working with Billy and his team. We needed help with our garage renovation, and they helped us with putting up drywall, insulation, recessed lighting, moving an outlet, painting, and putting in an epoxy floor. They left the garage as a perfect canvas for the new cabinets that will be installed in the next couple weeks. Billy was very responsive, punctual, and considerate. His team members were pleasant as well which helps so much as a busy mom to a 6 year old and a 1 year old. They really took care of everything from start to finish. I didn't even have to go to Home Depot which I've had to do for other contractors I've worked with. If you have a home project, Billy and his team will make the experience a great one! read more

Billy and Billywood Construction gets an A+ in my book! I needed some work done in my new home in Portola Valley. It was a rather small job and I had a number of contractors blow off my phone call. I called Billy after seeing his great Yelp reviews and I really liked that he picked up the phone and didn't send my random number to voicemail. Super friendly, professional, and so helpful. He was on time and prices are very fair. He even helped me communicate in Spanish with some guys doing termite repairs on my house. Talk about a nice guy who cares about his customer. He goes the extra mile and I knew right away that he will do the right thing when put in a situation. I was really impressed and hope to bring him back to do more work at our home really soon! Highly recommend Billywood Construction!! read more

Billy and his team just re-did our garage and it was an all-around excellent experience. He was so easy to work with and had a great can-do attitude. Everything went according to plan and I didn't need to be involved in the management or details. I also liked how he had people working pretty much all day every day (other than when things had to dry of course), so the project progressed very expeditiously. (Nice!) read more
