Here's an enthusiastic yelp for Chris Houk of Houk Construction. I am a Realtor who does business…read morein the San Francisco East Bay and Chris has been a referral I have given to my clients for some time. Recently Chris worked with me on one of my own home projects and I have to say, Chris went way above and beyond the call of duty to bring about a happy ending to what could have been an expensive, hassle of a crisis for me. My clients say Chris is personable and easy to understand, true to his word on price and consistently does quality work. It's been important to them to actually like and trust the contractor who spends so much time in their home. The truly outstanding thing about Chris is that he takes on his client's situation as if it were his own and works creatively to find the elegant solution. Recently, Chris helped me navigate some really tricky communications with the City of El Cerrito Building Services. In the end, the City representatives proved to be very reasonable in their requirements, but that WASN'T the way things started out! If I hadn't had Chris' help in the early stages, I surely would have gotten caught up in alot of bureaucracy and things might not have gone so well at all. Even Realtors need good representation! A++ for Houk Construction! Thank you, Chris!

For a brief period of procrastination, I finally handed over a delicate project to Al's Remodeling…read moreInc. The proprietor was Mr Al Zapien of San Francisco. A. Referral from Home Depot in Colma, CA. Although, the project was comparatively small, the outcome would greatly inflate the value of our property. The project involved rebuilding of the main stair landing & tiling. The tilings of a medium size 4 handrails. The strength of the rebuild stair landing was based upon the specifications of Mr Al Zapien. This included steel bars & bulky wood support that would prevent deterioration of the longevity of the structure. As far as, the brand of the tile, I ordered the "Ahfir Handmade Cement Tile" ( Yellow & Green ). I paid approximately, $1,541.00. The processed of tilings was precised in all aspects. The design was vividly clarified. It is a master piece that radiated beauty & serenity. Due to the professionalism of Mr Al Zapien & the outstanding craftsmanship of his team, I am compelled to discuss my next intended project. A more diversified objective involving a new drainage system that will give way to a full size bathroom in our basement. With all my confidence & trustworthy to Mr Al Zapien. Thank you.

Taking on a full house renovation can feel overwhelming, but his professionalism, organization and communication made the process smooth. What really set him apart was his problem-solving and guidance.

Sammy and his crew are GREAT! From the beginning of our project to the last bit of clean up, Sammy…read morewas there to over see everything. He helped my wife and I by going to the appliance stores and Home Depot, pick out appliances and supplies within our budget and even helped with some of the design aspects. His expert advise throughout the entire process helped us be at ease when our bathroom and kitchen were in upheaval. Sammy's right hand man, Pete, gave us a daily break down of what was going to be done and who was going to do the work. If Sammy was not at our house, Pete was always there working and overseeing the different stages of remodel. Not only did both the kitchen and bathroom come out better than we ever imagined, it was actually a very pleasant experience throughout (something most of my friends cannot say about their remodeling projects). Sammy and his crew went above and beyond each day. One thing that was very impressive, is they left our house cleaned up (as much as was possible) after every work day. They never left tools or garbage laying around. They always swept up, tidied up, and asked if there was anything else they needed to do before leaving for the day. Another impressive thing was Sammy was very good with being in contact with me or my wife. I have had previous contractors say they will be by at a certain time, never show up, and/or never answer their cell phones. If Sammy was ever going to be late or a project needed to be amended, he was always in contact. He appreciates the clients time and need to be updated. Most importantly for pet owners, he and his crew were very kind to our animals. He always made sure our cats were in a secured area and unable to get out of the house along with being very enthusiastic with our dogs jumping and barking to say hello each morning. We cannot say enough good things about Builtwell Construction! They are awesome!
