In an emergency, I was overwhelmed with a leaking roof and terrible drywall damage. Mateo responded not only at 9 o'clock the night before but was here at 9 AM the next morning and ready to help! Him and his crew were absolutely lovely and they did the best job! His prices were fair, his work was absolutely perfect and they could not have been nicer. We are so pleased with the new roof and new interior and will absolutely recommend him and use him for all of our future projects! read more

My husband and I purchased a TIC 5 years ago, without really knowing what this would mean down the road, when converting to a condo. All we knew was: that that was the only type of home we could afford in San Francisco! After a few years of "after the fact research" and "prepping of the conversion legally" with our neighbors, we needed to jump both feet into the thick of it all: the city inspection and addressing all the city inspection requirements to be approved. We were so afraid of this stage of the process and it's unknowns!! And then -- we were introduced to VICENTE JIMINEZ, general contractor from JIMINEZ CONSTRUCTION, who had recently remodeled our neighbor's home! Along with a great architect: Jeff Burris, he basically held our hands and took us through the many steps and phases of our condo conversion. From hanging the job card in our window to handing us the final inspection approval note from the city - with a handshake! We probably made Vicente feel very uncomfortable that day with all of our hugs and screaming (of joy that was;)! Was it an easy process? No, of course not. Big projects like these never come without any surprises: good and bad. You open a wall, you never know what's behind it. More so: You never know what the inspector will require next! But very soon into the big mess of construction, we knew one thing: we were in GOOD HANDS. We never felt alone in this big adventure, and Vicente and his team always made sure to respect our home and lives by making it livable by the end of a working day, 'cause yes: we were living in our home with our one and a half year old baby girl while all of this was going on. Call us crazy! Quoting a project like a condo conversion must be one of the hardest tasks for a general contractor because even though they have the city inspection report in hand to work off of, some of these requirements are based upon unknown factors, like engineer based test results (?) or not knowing exactly how many wall the inspectors will want you to open in the end - before approval. I have to stress upon the fact that Vicente gave us a very detailed quote based upon the inspection notes, leaving just a few blanks where tangibles came into play, and Vicente never once invoiced us more then he quoted us! Now, this doesn't mean the city requirement's list didn't increase along the way, but that isn't his doing. Those extras of course came with additional quotes and costs. But as a general rule: Vicente stayed right on the dot with his quotes! And that was super important to us. You can imagine how reassuring that is while going along through the construction as we didn't have an endless budget and we wanted to make sure we had committed ourselves to something we would be able to afford/honor in the end. Vicente kept us informed about every step of the way. He dealt with all of the inspectors coming through to evaluate the progress of the works. Vicente's team is very efficient, pleasant and respectful to have in your home (which is very important when you live and work in your home while the works are going on). Vicente Jiminez (& team) is highly professional, skilled, resourceful and knowledgeable about the task at hand and San Francisco City codes. But even more so: he cares. Vicente cares about a job well done and about making his clients happy in the end. Which: we are! If you haven't already gathered the following by my previous notes: My husband and I HIGHLY recommend Jiminez Construction, general contractor. It was a real pleasure working with Vicente! We trusted him with our life savings and have no regrets in having done so -- as he made it happen for us. We will keep using Vicente for all of our other construction needs as we go. read more

Jimenez Construction - Jiminez Construction. - General Contractors Near Me - San Francisco, California

Vicente Jimenez and his crew at Jimenez Construction did an amazing job on our complete bathroom remodel for a reasonable price. They handled the general construction, electrical, plumbing, and tile-work from start till finish. His crew worked hard every day, even showing up on several weekends to finish work before upcoming inspections. His crew was extremely friendly and polite, aware of the fact that we were living in the house with a 2-year old while they were working. They did an amazing job protecting all the walls, stairs, floor, and even blocked off the work-area with floor to ceiling plastic to prevent dust from getting to the rest of the house. Every day they cleaned the work-area and vacuumed up any dust that got out. Vicente also handled all the complicated San Francisco permits for electrical, plumbing and general construction and arranged and managed all the city inspections for us. What could have been a huge hassle became a painless process. The project was completed on time and only slightly over the estimate. Vicente explained in detail the cause of any extra costs (unexpected complications installing the plumbing in our 100-year old house required extra labor and material) and had us approve the work before he moved ahead with it. We couldn't be happier with the result. The new bathroom looks amazing and the quality of the work really shows. I would highly recommend Jimenez Construction. read more

We worked with Vicente and crew to remodel a condo before moving in. We were totally clueless when it came to renovations...but Vicente actually helped make it a painless process. The work: Vicente stained & refinished floors, painted kitchen cabinets, changed countertops, added kitchen backsplash, installed new appliances, remodeled bathroom, installed hardwood floors in 2 bedrooms and painted walls. The price: EXTREMELY REASONABLE! he gives you an estimate and sticks by it...even if it takes him longer to do it. so you know exactly what you will be paying. The quality: We were extremely happy with how everything turned out. and everything was on time! Vicente communicated with us every step of the way. He showed us samples of everything before moving forward (it took us 4 times before we settled on the stain for the floors), and he was extremely patient. He offered his recommendations and suggestions - and he was always respectful of our home and neighbors. After we moved in - and the movers scratched up our brand new floors - Vicente even restained the floors for us at cost. I would definitely recommend Vicente and his crew for any home renovation needs you may have. And If he doesn't think he's the right person for the job - he will let you know and refer someone else. Very solid and trustworthy person. read more

My husband and I are both designers and we had the opportunity to work with Jimenez Construction remodeling a Deli in the city of Walnut Creek. We were very impressed with the quality of worked performed. Vicente, the owner, was very professional, responsible and he was always available to respond any questions that we had regarding to the project. Due to the circumstances we had to work with a tight schedule and budget, but thanks to his leadership, experience and his crew we were able to meet our deadlines and to pass all the required inspections, if there was an unforeseen issue they were always willing to take a step forward in order to get the job done. Our client is very satisfied with his work and customers are giving us very positive feedback. We strongly recommend to consider him in your future projects. read more

Vicente Jimenez never showed up at an appointment to come look at a remodeling project. The appointment had been confirmed by both of us the day before. He never tried to contact me at the appointment time or after it. I cannot say anything about his actual work but he is not reliable. And this kind of work relies a lot on trusting that the contractor will do what he says. read more

A friend at work had used Jimenez construction for his major house renovation project, and recommended them, so I used them for my bathroom remodel. Vicente Jimenez gave me a detailed quote that was pretty reasonable. His guys did good quality work and were always easy to deal with. The project took a bit longer than he had said, but the bill was the same as the quote, even though I had added a few extras. I would definitely use them again. read more

Jimenez Construction built the house we currently live in and it's beautiful. It has a nice clean modern look without being over the top. The layout gives the impression of being spacious and airy while still incorporating a lot of bedrooms so we can sleep a lot of people in the house. They have always been extremely quick to fix any minor issues that have ever arisen, such as replacing the microwave and one of the shower doors that we broke. I'd highly recommend them for a project. read more

We've used Vicente and his company for a couple of major jobs at our house, and couldn't offer a higher rating! They've been on time or ahead of schedule, true to their quoted budget, and always careful with our house, neighbors, and the quality of their work. Trustworthy contractors are like good mechanics; hard to find and worth keeping. I can offer no praise higher than we wouldn't think of using anyone else. read more

I've worked with Vicente and crew on 3 remodel projects. He is fantastic, high quality, and affordable!
