I was recommended Current Construction for a seismic upgrade by a structural engineer friend of mine. He had worked with them on several projects prior to mine and guaranteed me that they were the most professional contractors he had dealt with in a long time. My buddy Kevin was not exaggerating. Look, I don't yelp very often unless it's to find a decent burrito or a hair dresser that won't cut my ears off and I certainly don't get the desire to review concrete or framing contractors all that often, in fact, never. But these guys are true gents. I work in the design industry but have little knowledge of the structural side of construction. David and Colm met with myself and the engineer and within minutes the guys had a rock solid game plan set out as to how they were going to undertake the project. They explained the process to me, what gave their foundations strength; the reinforcing steel they used; the retrofit equipment they would be using ; they introduced me to their steel guy, demo guy and excavations expert. It all just made the project comfortable for me and I felt safe. The whole project took about 4 weeks and the surprise for me was it was headache free minus the odd jack hammer day (expected). The finished product? My property is worth a hell of a lot more now. My buildings tenants and I feel safer living in a earthquake proof seismic upgraded building. I managed to get the wonderful building department of San Francisco off my back, finally! The guys are now currently working on another property of mine in north beach building an addition and it turns out they do some top notch finish work. read more

Current construction took on the rather daunting task of replacing my foundations. The structural engineer who assessed my property in the Richmond district told me that my foundations were unsafe and if an earthquake occurred the building could potentially collapse. The thought of my family sleeping in a house not structurally fit to withstand an earthquake terrified me. As a father of two, I realized I had to act fast in order to keep my family out of harm's way. My engineer referred a few foundation and retrofit contractors but each one of them had a waiting list of over 6 months. Apparently there's a waiting list in the city these days because of this mandatory soft story upgrade thing. Who knew? I then took matters into my own hands, moved my search to yelp and finally found Current Construction. Luckily they had a job cancelation and where able to begin the job as soon as the city gave the go ahead on the permits. Honestly I have no clue about construction, contractors or seismic upgrades all that mumble jumble and quite frankly the thought of my house getting a new foundation as if it were a new set of shoes was mind boggling to me. I mean I work in retail! But when the guys from Current showed up and explained the whole process step by step and behaved throughout the project with total professionalism I knew there was nothing to worry about. Fast forward six weeks, I now sleep better knowing that my house is earthquake ready and that my family are that much safer. read more

I have a client who needed a contractor to perform a seismic upgrade. I was initially referred to Current Construction from another client who knew of them and their work. As part of the vetting process for my client, I reached out to Dathi & Colm to discuss a possible project and obtain a quote. First and foremost, the response rate of the duo of Current Construction was consistent and pleasant. They responded to my inquiries - whether they were email or phone calls - within 24 hours. I had a checklist of questions and truly grilled them on the process and they were so patient and knowledgeable and made myself and my client feel at ease about getting this project done. They also provided a solid set of references that I was able to contact and was impressed by the high regard that their previous clients had for the team. During this whole process, I became one of those people, who would send the company messages or call them as soon as I had a question or need guidance and I never felt once that they were annoyed or put out. They actually were always pleasant as I stated above and both have really great senses of humor. At the end of it all, my client had to put a hold on the project overall, but they did state that when they pick back up again they would gladly and confidently give their project over to Current Construction. Thanks guys for making this process so easy and enjoyable! read more

I'm a single mom and I recently purchased my first home. My home is old and in fairly poor condition so naturally, I have a lot of work to get done to make the home safe for myself and my kids. I researched a number of contractors in the San Fran area and got some ambitious cost figures, way out of my budget! A friend of mine suggested I get in touch with Current Construction. She recently had her kitchen updated by the company and it looks fabulous. Current Construction has really given me a most pleasant experience and value for my money. My home was remodeled well within the timeframe, within budget and to a very high standard, exactly how I wanted things done. I have a busy schedule and they worked evenings and weekends to suit my schedule. They were courteous and very knowledgeable about the work they were doing. When they finished working inside it was like they were never there. They left my house immaculate. Now my home is like brand new. These guys really know what they're doing. I have already contacted them for a quote on outside work that is next on my list. I strongly recommend these guys to anyone who wants work done by professionals and to a high standard. read more

Current did a whole home remodel for me back in 2019. I had originally contacted David in 2017 to provide an estimate. Anyone who has done a project of this scope can imagine the challenges of hiring a general contractor especially in the Bay Area. I compared the bids of several contractors and, after much review, discussion and thought, decided to proceed with Current. And I'm happy with my decision to do so. David and his team were very easy to work with. Communication was key - when a decision was to be made or issue to be solved, David was forthright with the information and options. He was in constant contact via text, email, and weekly meetings. His crew was very professional, respectful and friendly. It is quite obvious David only hires the best. We were living onsite during the entire project. But I always trusted the persons who were onsite. I never doubted their integrity. Needless to say, with a project of this size, I'm happy to have it behind me. But, if I were to do it again, I would hire Current. read more

I wanted to remodel my home in San Francisco to cater for my family as we have two small kids. I didn't know where to start. My colleague told me about Current Construction as they had completed structural work for him previously. I phoned Colm and described what I wanted to achieve with the rebuild. He explained to me the processes involved and referred me to an engineer to get plans. Eventually I got everything in order and was ready to start construction. From the beginning of construction through to completion went like a breeze. They were very aware to cause as little disruption as possible and worked around our schedule. Everyday their crew met us with a smile and it felt like a good environment. The build was completed on time and within our budget which was very pleasing. I've heard of the stress that can be caused by dealing with contractors but that's not the case with Current Construction. I highly recommend them! read more

I was referred these guys by a friend of mine who is an electrical contractor. We were in the middle of a remodel when we decided to basically earthquake proof our place (well as much as is actually possible in San Francisco). My friend highly recommended them having worked with them in the past. It was great advice. They gave us an excellent quote, which was ridiculously accurate. The guys came on-time every morning and were genuinely pleasant and cheerful each day. After completing our foundation work, the guys came back and did some finished carpentry work for us too. Thank you. read more

It's hard to find a trustworthy and honest general contractor, so I was really happy when a friend recommended Current Construction to help me with some foundation work and an addition to my property. The guys kept the place nice and tidy during the process, which I was worried about. They were quick, professional and great communicators. They were so good, I just re-hired them for a bathroom remodel. In terms of contractors, these guys are the best and happy to recommend them to anyone. read more

I had my kitchen remodeled by Current Construction. What a wonderful experience from planning to completion. I was delighted with their professional approach, their knowledge of materials and most of all their patience with a retired lady who likes to have every step explained! Current Construction talked me through the entire process, didn't rush anything and put my comfort and safety during the remodel at a priority. I could only give them 5 stars. read more

We had carpentry work done around our house. We had 2 rooms turned into one, but when we took the walls down we had problems with the pipes. Colm and his team rerouted the pipes so we didn't have to call someone else in. He did a neat job in the demo and the finished work was exactly what we wanted. The pricing was more than fair and the craftsmanship above expectations. Would definitely use them again. read more

We needed some remodelling work done and an office extension after moving to SF. We found Colm through a recommendation and he lived up to his reputation. The interior woodwork was finished to a very high standard, and the guys were very careful not to cause any more disruption than was necessary. The work was very neat and came in on time and on budget. I would use them again without question. read more

Had Colm and his team of Carpenters Carry out some Foundation and seismic work at a Rental property we have in Noe Valley. They did an excellent job and most of all stayed in Budget. We will definitely be using these top carpenters for a Deck project and kitchen remodel at the end of the summer. Keep it up Guys. read more

We started our retrofit just before Covid...had to shut down for over a month but David and his crew got our job done in a timely manner even with the disruption. They were always on-time and a courteous bunch to work with! read more
