Doug, Ryan and Patty are a great team. They worked under some very unusual circumstances. Got the job done beautiful. They redid the bathroom and the kitchen. Amazed but the company and craftsmanship. Highly recommend read more

Full House Construction made repairs to my home after it received water damage. The owner Doug responded to my home and explained the repair process and addressed all my concerns. All of the subcontractors were on time, professional and did an excellent job on all the work performed. The office manager Patty was kind, patient and understanding in all my dealings with her and I would highly recommend Full House Construction to anyone who needs work done on their home.

Do not use this company! They are unprofessional and rude! Poor communication and lack of detail

If I could give no stars this is what they would get. They do not follow schedules or do quality work. They do half assed work if that. If you have mold in your house they will paint over it and cover it up. I would run as fast as you can and don't hire this company unless you like mold. read more

Many thanks to Doug, Patty and the rest of the crew at Full House for their diligent work and office support for my recent water damage. Their skillful work made my place a home again! read more

Doug and his crew at Full House did an excellent job with work that we needed following a plumbing accident. We needed a complete reconstruct of our bathroom and original hardwood floor refinishing. The contractors that Doug works with for the various stages of the work were all great and Ryan was outstanding in every aspect of his work. Our floors look fantastic. Replaced our tub with a beautiful walk in shower and all of the work done to replace everything in the bathroom is perfect. Kudos to Doug for being very patient as we dealt with an incredibly frustrating wait caused by the inattentive adjusters who work for State Farm. This extended what should have been a month long project to an 8 month ordeal and everyone at Full House was understanding and helpful along the way. I fully recommend Doug, Patty, Ryan and the entire team at Full House. read more

Thank you! Can't say enough how communicative, professional and on time full house was. I was 9 months pregnant and Joel who was our go to guy made sure the guys were in and out to fix my laundry room for us. They did an awesome job! My husband and I couldn't have been more happy. We were very happy with the service that we went with them for another job read more

Full House Construction - General Contractors Near Me - Santee, California

See all

My upstairs bathroom flooded inside the walls and also damaged my downstairs bathroom. Full House was referred to me and I'll be forever grateful. Doug, the owner walked me through the process of how the repairs would proceed. We had major delays with materials and the insurance company, but Doug was my advocate. He stayed in contact with the insurance company and still continues to help me with the final reimbursements even though the job has been completed! He's has an awesome person working with him named Patty that handles the finance side. She responds quickly and can answer all your questions to put you at ease. I can't say enough good things about Full House Construction in Santee. The entire team of contractors were excellent, and easy to work with. Doug, Patty, Ryan and David, thank you for my two new beautiful bathrooms!! Carol W. read more

Outstanding work, cost, professionalism, timely, and communication! He helped guide me through the logistics of my insurance claim, listened to my concerns, and always a pleasure to work with him and his crew. Occasionally they even sacrificed their weekends to get the job done. Who does that these days? I had major flood damage in the kitchen, dining room, and living room of my 1942 house. The floors were the original white oak from 1942. I had to have total remediation including the plaster walls. Doug and his crew rebuilt the kitchen cabinets, took out all the appliances and replaced them, rebuilt the original built-in shelving (looks identical to the original and its pair), repaired the leaking water line to the fridge, and replaced the floor. Everything was protected and the job area was always clean and neat. When I walk in looks like nothing ever happened in the house. I definately will use his company again for any additional projects or, hopefully, not for any more disasters. read more

I called Eddie at Full House Construction when my washing machine leaked all over my house. He first gave me the name/number of Express Dry who was amazing, came out to my house same day, explained everything along the way. Then Eddie came out and spent a couple of hours measuring and taking photos to submit the estimate to Insurance. USAA approved the estimate first time because it was so detailed. He also referred me to Rayo Wholesale floor coverings which was fantastic - got much more carpet for my money! Full House construction is a general contractor and they hire subcontractors to do the work. I see some complaints about that in other reviews - that's typically how these things work unless you act as your own general contractor and hire all the subs yourself. Money wasn't an issue for the job to get done, not sure what the other reviewer is talking about. They have a guy who does an amazing job with painting (I'm sorry I forgot his name)! There was one day one of the subs did a poor job on texturing the wall, so it was redone the next day by the regular guy. There was also a worker who repaired a cabinet in a way that was no appropriate and Eddie got it done properly the very next day. They kept in regular communication with me via email, phone which I appreciated. Overall took a little longer than I'd hoped, but these things always do. I was so happy that I also hired them to replace carpet and baseboards in two rooms that were not effected by the flood. read more

Great service. Eric was quick to provide an estimate and kept me in the loop the entire time during the repair process. They also adhere to my wishes of only 1 worker at a time as to limit traffic during covid 19 crisis. George was an excellent dry Waller and meticulously went above and beyond to make sure the the reconstruction made it look better than original. Thank you for your help in a crisis during a crisis. read more

We had a slab leak. Our plumber referred a restoration company and restoration company recommended Full House. We weren't really in a position to research contractors. They were horrible at scheduling, completing and invoicing. If you have a slab leak and looking for a contractor, take the time to look for someone else. This company is not pleasant to work with and it will not get done quickly. read more

I cannot say enough good things about Full House Construction! We had major water damage in the kitchen of one of our rental houses and needed restoration and a total rebuild of the kitchen. The work needed to be done immediately as we had tenants displaced by the water damage. I found Full House only through yelp reviews. They were amazing! They responded right away with an assessment, quote, start and finish date. They stuck to their timeline and their quote! They were professional, courteous, super helpful and extremely efficient. They worked with my insurance company and with subcontractors. I will definitely use them again when/if the need arises and would recommend them to anyone who needs work done. It was a pleasure working with them and with Doug, who was our primary contact person. They do great work!! read more

Working with Doug and his crew was easy and professional. They were prompt had good communication and the end work looks great. We had a flood and this was the restoration with our insurance company and Doug worked well with the insurance company and got all the repairs that we needed taken care of. Full House Construction rocks ! read more

Doug and Ryan were good to work with. Doug was responsive and Ryan worked hard to remodel our kitchen after a leak in the ceiling. It would've been great to have more people complete the work more quickly as it took nearly three months to finish. However, we appreciated Ryan's hard work. read more

Doug and Ryan did an awesome job repairing our bathroom and bedroom after a severe plumbing leak. Doug worked with our adjuster to get us the repairs need and Ryan did great work. read more

We tried to get an estimate from this company. They refused, and said it was not how they do business. I've never heard of a company that refuses to give you an estimate until you tell them what the insurance will pay. I read the other reviews, and I'm very grateful I didn't do business with them. read more

After having a problem with a previous contractor, I was put in contact with Doug from Full House Construction. I hired him after only one phone call. Doug and his crew stepped right in and corrected the deficiencies and completed more than was required of them. Doug communicated with me every step of the way. His crew is amazing, very professional, and respectful. Full house Construction will be my first phone call next time we remodel or need a repair! FIVE STARS! read more

We had a leak from an upstairs bathroom into our laundry room so we needed drywall/baseboard repair, new tile, wall texturing and paint. I read many of the reviews and was hesitant to use them but I saw a favorable review from an USAA Insurance client so I decided to give them a try. The first meeting with Eddie went well. He was very personable and professional. Gus then took over the project and I dealt with him and his team. A few times they were hours late to show up but once I talked to them about it, they were on time. I could not stay around all day to make sure what I wanted done was completed. I would tell them what I wanted in the morning, only to come home to someone completely different painting the bathroom over a hole in the wall without repairing it, brackets not taken down from the windows as I asked and paint splatters on my windows. I had to reach out to Gus about my tile that was ordered after 10 days as he never gave me an update or a time frame. Some one completely different was sent to lay my tile with some issues that I had to point out to the original team. Tools were left on my front porch and on my driveway with sharp objects I had to move so I could park. I still have tools and gloves left in my garage. I finally had to call Eddie after a month to get my repairs finished. He came and had to touch up obvious paint mistakes and basic cleanup. I would not use them again for any type of restoration. All that being said, the team was courteous and willing to listen to my instructions and complaints when things needed to be fixed. read more

We were referred to Patrick through our restoration company when we had a terrible water leak at home. We had to file our first insurance claim for the damages and rebuild. Patrick came to us with his vast knowledge and extensive experience in not only his trade but also dealing with the insurance claims. He was able to put our house back together much less than the time he initially quoted us. He also worked with the insurance company to get the payment for us so I didn't have to get involved. Patrick is thorough in his management of his crew, workmanship and customer care (he really cares!). I've had a lot of construction/remodel guys work on our house in the past 20 years, but Patrick has been by far the most pleasant to work with. He doesn't chummy up to you, oversell stuff you don't need or over promise. He is a true professional with integrity you can count on. Thank you, Patrick and his crew! read more

Doug and his team helped get our daughters bathroom back up to speed. Work was completed in a timely fashion and Doug addressed any of our complaints or issues after the fact. And also matched a 3 year workmanship warranty that other companies would provide. read more

I was looking for specialty work this company doesn't do, and they were still helpful in connecting me with others who do. Rare helpfulness these days, and much appreciated. read more

Doug and his team did a wonderful job rebuilding our bathroom after a major flood. His communication was outstanding and he responded immediately to any questions or concerns we may have had. The workmanship and professionalism of his crew was excellent and they were very good at paying attention to all the details. Highly recommend. read more

Doug was extremely professional and was continuously there with an answer to any of my questions. Was in communication at all times so I never left like I wasn't apart of this operation. I am very thankful for all the work done on my rental property and will call if I ever have a flood again! Thank you! read more

Oh man where to even begin with this horrible company? This is going to be long because that's how bad it was, read if you're really considering them because I go into details of the job that was done- cliff notes they were fired. Doug and Eddie, started off like a dream. We met and went over everything that needed repairing due to water damage and they seem to be on board and sounded like they were going to be professional/fast. Our house was completely gutted. It was just a shell of the house, no carpet upstairs and going up the stairs, no tile in the master bathroom, no flooring at all downstairs, exposed wires, some of our walls were knocked down, and no kitchen. Mind you we had to live in the house while all this was going on, due to insurance stuff which was a ordeal in itself. When they actually started the job it was just one mistake after the other. It was like pulling teeth from them to get anything done. We had to beg their guy Alfonso, to do our carpet and paint. He had called out multiple times and took forever to paint a room and would only do like 3 hrs worth of work and leave and not show up for like 3 days. Doug and Eddie were never aware of when he was supposed to show up. And we were told multiple times that we would be a priority after another job was wrapped up. These guys knew our crappy situation and that we had a toddler that couldn't not run around due to tools laying around, nails sticking up from where the carpet was ripped, and exposed wires. This was a HUGE job for them. They asked for a progress payment for the work they had done and that was tiling, dry wall patch up and carpeting and all the small little details that came with it. So we paid them the progress payment then fired them. Because, they did such a horrible job and went over their contract date; let me tell you they were no where near complete when we fired them. After complaining to Doug about Alfonso, he swore that he fired him from the company, but it turned out that he just fired him from our job and not the company, which I don't care it was the fact that we were lied to which shows dishonesty. Then Doug asked if he can have another crew come in after they were fired to fix and repair what the first crew did wrong, we agreed and after telling the new crew what needed to be done they still missed things the first crew didn't do and at that point my husband and I were done and just didn't ask them to come back. We still have patches around outlets and light fixtures that have different color paint because they didn't want to remove them to do the job properly. We have a different color paint in my daughters room that they used to match the paint, mind you her room was not to be touched since it was not in the insurance scope of what needed to be repaired. They took out our CO2 detector downstairs and never replaced it and installed the AC wrong, we had to call someone else to repair it. We also had to buy new blinds and track lighting because they threw ours away, which were perfectly fine to begin with. On top of that my husband had some saw horses, a shovel, and a hammer taken from him and we have a smiling face carved into our night stand. Eddie was supposed to supervise the pack out and begged the insurance for money to supervise and guess what he never once showed up to the pack out. Now Doug comes back and says we owe him money. And while we were reviewing what he "is owed" in front of him he has the audacity to tell us oh I'm sure you'll find things in there that we didn't do, just cross it out. Ugh.... shouldn't you have done that before coming to our house or was he trying to pull a fast one? There was a whole bathroom he is trying to charge us for that wasn't touched, in fact his employees used that bathroom and left it completely filthy. So the only thing that is owed to him is the cabinets and half the pack out, which we don't mind paying for of course. We told him we were going to order the cabinets and he insisted he could order them for us. He is now charging us $5,500 for the cabinets and he told us that the company he ordered them through still needs to be paid. So, we took a trip to the place to pay them and deal with them directly, not only did he lie, again, because they were paid for already, but the cabinets cost significantly less than what he told us they cost. Now, I wouldn't mind paying him the inflated price, however he was already fired and insisted to order them for us at no cost other than materials. These guys are crooks and dishonest people, I don't trust anything that comes out of their mouths and they hire lazy people. They take on way more projects than they can handle, again we were a huge job and they lost us due to not being professional by any capacity of that word. I had high hopes for them, even the guy that referred us to them was completely shocked on their work. Maybe they were going through a rough patch but I would look elsewhere for a contractor. read more

The reconstruction side of this business is horrible. Doug is dismissive and condescending. Work is very slow or not done at all. There is little to no communication and work done is barely worth the hassle of trying to deal with them. I highly suggest finding someone else to do your reconstruction. Absolutely would not recommend them, not even to my worst enemy... read more

We had a flood and Full House Construction redid our kitchen and master bathroom. They were super accommodating with our requests and everything turned out great. The only hiccup we encountered was a result of a problem with a specialty window manufacturer. I would definitely recommend them. read more

Full House Construction managed the restoration of my condo which was flooded due to a blocked condensation line on the A/C. They began by preparing an additional scope of work to augment the incomplete one prepared by the insurance company's adjuster. The way it was prepared and presented enabled my adjuster to accept it immediately. Doug and Ryan kept me and my tenants informed throughout. They kept the appointments they made, they brought in specialists as needed (Express Dry), they worked as fast as they could to minimize the inconvenience to my tenants. As expected, issues arose and Doug and his team were proactive in explaining them to me and giving me recommendations without any pressure. I'm happy with the work that was done and grateful for his experience both in fixing a big mess and in dealing with my insurance company. read more

Full House is not the company doing the work. They hire other companies and take 40% of the contracted price. We didn't know that until the worker said he didn't have enough money in the job. He showed us a list with all the numbers and we thought we would get a full complete job. We didn't. It's not an insurance scam, but if feels like one. 1 Star to Full House because that's Shady and 5 stars to the Worker from another company. read more

My ceiling had about an 8 ft. x 4 hole , due to the upstairs neighbors tub leaking into my living room and Eric w/FULL HOUSE CONSTRUCTION and his team (Tom w/ A to Z Contracting) came through with a fast and amazingly great job! As if nothing ever happened. I was provided with fast response via their personal cell # and they did NOT fail. When they say "see you at 8 a.m." they will be there at 7:45am.

A water pipe burst on the ceiling above the bedroom & garage caused damages to the wall, carpet and water heater tank base, and was detected by a plumbing company. After the drying period, done by a different company, Full House Construction took over the job. Jorge worked hard and did a wonderful job of removing the wallpaper, installing the drywall on the affected sides of the bedroom, drying the area and painting the whole room. He was so efficient, knowledgeable, courteous & friendly. Today, he came back to replace the brackets of the curtain rod that inadvertently, got lost. Eddie Noah, the project manager was nice, kind and friendly, always returned my call, listened to all my inquiries and facilitated everything that was to be done and made me feel at ease and a valuable customer. The carpet installers also did a great job, making the room look new. Doug, the company owner was receptive in all my phone conversations with him. Full House Construction Company, I can't thank you enough for the great service you had afforded me & my family. I feel so much better now that everything is back in order. This is a fine company. I highly recommend it. read more

In late June of this year, we discovered a slab leak under our kitchen floor. We immediately called a local plumbing contractor, who in turn called a company to do the immediate clean up and drying of the kitchen floor damage. During this time it was determined that we had to have our entire kitchen demolished and the flooring surrounding the kitchen was ripped up and would have to be replaced. Obviously we were devastated and had no idea what to do. One of the contractors recommended Full House Construction. I called them right away and hooked up with Eddie Noah. He jumped right in and went through the process with us in conjunction with our home owner's insurance claim representative. As we ended up having our entire house repiped, holes were made in the garage, the master bedroom (which backs up to the kitchen), the master bathroom, and the master bedroom closet. Additionally all of the wooden flooring needed to be replaced. While I go on and on... it is to tell how much damage we had and how our lives were disrupted for more than 3 months. Full House Construction led by Doug and Eddie, Ryan, Francisco, Jeff and many others definitely came to our rescue. While at times things were held up due to late insurance payments, now that it is all said and done, we could not be happier with the outcome! We love our new flooring and kitchen. read more

Full House is an outstanding company. I needed a complete bathroom restoration after a water leak. Eddie came out right away and got the estimate to my Insurance company promptly. Started the job the day after I got the ok from USAA. The key to the success of this job was with their work force, which consisted of one guy. Ryan Sheard. This was the most amazing tradesman I have ever witnessed and I was in the Construction business for 10 years. Ryan is the jack of all trades. He completed the drywall work, including texturing. He built a new vanity cabinet from scratch to fit the existing corian top. He did all the painting, He did all the plumbing. He put in a brand new porcelain floor including a porcelain base. Every aspect of this job was completed by Ryan. Full House is very lucky to have him in their employ and I thank them for giving him to me. I could not be more satisfied with this company. read more

Full House Construction was referred to me by my plumbing contractor as the best people to help me through the disaster created by a pinhole pipe leak in my wall and they were right. Full House was so helpful and professional during the initial phase of drywall removal, water containment and mitigation, required testing etc, that I decided to use them for my full reconstruction which was removal and reinstallation of wood floors, painting, drywall repair, cupboard repair etc. Full House created a detailed work list, coordinated directly with my insurance claims rep and most critically did what they said they would do at the price they said they would do it at! They even helped me with an in issue of my making with a flooring supplier to ensure that I was happy with the finished result. They are now operating out of both Orange and San Diego counties and I would gladly use them again on any reconstruction project. read more

So far, Strongly recommend. read more

I am so grateful for Doug and his team. They are professional, honest,and timely. They have done an excellent job of restoring my bath/shower. Their quality is first rate and within budget. Doug was sensitive to the fact that all expenses were coming out of pocket. I was worried about getting the job done before my tenant arrives home on Christmas day. Given this busy season, they managed to deliver before Christmas as promised.But most of all, I will be home in time for Christmas. You see, this is the first Christmas without our Mom who passed in January, and my elderly Dad is waiting for my return. I have been blessed to meet Doug and his awesome team who have given me the best Christmas gift. I will be using them in the future. Thank you Doug and God Bless you! read more

Doug and his crew are construction professionals. We had a bit of water damage from a leaking garbage disposal. They put it all back together from the walls, the bottom of the cabinet under the sink, the laminate flooring, the baseboards and gave us a fresh coat of paint on our walls. Everything looks great. Doug has a great bed side manner, he's understanding and wants to help (and he deals with the insurance for you). Thank you Full House Construction. We will definately use them again. read more
