Tim knows what he is doing, is happy to explain things, and has extensive experience working on homes in this part of the bay, which gives him a very helpful familiarity with common issues and home configurations in the area (as well as all the weird stuff various/past owners try to do to address these things). He got back to us quickly once he received my message, turned around a timely estimate after seeing the property, and work began very soon after we accepted his bid. The work was fast and minimally intrusive, and we are extremely happy with the results. Will be working with Tim on our future plans for the house, and so glad to have a contractor we know and like. Tim and his crew were a pleasure to deal with, were polite and respectful, showed up on time, communicated when issues or questions came up, and MOST importantly (to me), I didn't feel at all weird about leaving them alone in our home - trustworthy good guys. There are some sordid, strange, and scary characters in the construction business, but you won't find them in this company; Tim and his crew are intelligent, approachable, and hard-working - what more could you ask for? Very kind and conscientious with our dogs too!

Finally done, work seems good enough, and we move forward with our lives. Recently discovered he never finaled the permits so future work can't be done until that gets resolved. This requires refiling for a completion permit so he's still costing me time and money. Multiple efforts to contact him via phone or email have not gotten a response. I leave this review to encourage you to make sure he sees your project through to completion. Needs constant supervision.

Highly recommend!

Hintz's company has the best contractor I have ever worked with and they are very affordable. We…read morebought a home that needs a lot of work ( big and small). I could find many contractors who would do the big ticket items but they don't seem to care about the little stuff that would make my life easier. Martin from Hintz's originally came over to give me a quote for the damaged siding of my house. However, he didn't stop there . He started pointing out all the little stuff he would help me fixed up along with the siding project without me asking for them or pointing out those problems. He was observant, patient and thorough. I'm glad I picked them . Martin and his crew were wonderful. I was so happy with their work with the siding . I started to give them more jobs around the house . 1 week siding project turned into few months of work around the house. Sound proofing wall, flooring , closing a window, reframing window and door, replacing window trims , kitchen cabinet/ counter top extension , electrical sub panel , recess lights, relocating receptacles, installing recess dryer vent box , relocate crawl space entrance , removing water heater, installing pipes for tankless water heater , demo and rebuild a deck, welding railing, concrete paving etc . There is absolutely nothings that this company doesn't do. We did all of those while we were living in the house . They were very careful and clean to make sure our life was not too disturbed by the construction. I highly recommended Hintz's company.

I would highly recommend this company for minor repairs or large scale construction projects.

We contacted Peter Erwin within a few weeks before the deadline for net-metering (NEM) 2.0…read moreapplications in California. This was after one of the big solar companies had declined our project because our main panel was not considered solar ready. Pete completely saved the project (and the day) for us: He installed a new main panel, elegantly kept the old panel as a sub-panel and also found a solution to keep the required distance from the gas aerator despite the relative lack of space where the new panel needed to be placed. He then installed solar panels for us at a fair price. Just like with the main panel, Pete completely followed through with this project, too. All of Pete's work has been done according to code, and we have now been enjoying the green energy from our solar system as well as the benefits of the NEM 2.0 program for several weeks - all thanks to Pete. Pete is a genuine, very friendly and incredible person. He is a very fine and fair electrician, he knows the local code and he keeps his promises. We can fully endorse Pete and assure you that you cannot go wrong with him as your electrician and solar expert.
