Of all the contractors we talked with on the deck project, Mitch had the best and lowest cost solution -- and we could not be more pleased with the outcome. He has a great eye and his ideas were instrumental in turning our dilapidated structure into truly fabulous space. Important, too, Mitch and his team executed this huge project in our landscaped backyard and barely disturbed the plants. Every night we got home after work, the job site was completely cleaned and organized. In short, Mitch/Redbridge is 5 Star.

Over the years, I've worked with several contractors for home and business projects. Redbridge…read moreConstructions is one of the best. Mitch (owner of Redbridge) was recommended by my Realtor to help us scope out the amount of work needed for a house we wanted to bid on. The deal fell through, and he came back to do the same for the home we ended up purchasing. The home needed an all over interior remodel, but we decided to focus on the kitchen, the bathroom, and a prioritized list of repairs. We had a strict budget, and Mitch helped us determine how we can achieve our vision while adhering to the budget. Amazingly, Mitch and his crew helped deliver our beautifully remodeled kitchen, bath, and the repairs on schedule. As with any typical remodel, as we progressed through the project, the scope got larger than originally anticipated. Mitch helped to contain the costs without compromising quality. Like a seasoned pro, Mitch was also great with offering creative solutions to any issues/problems encountered along the way. Remodeling a home can be a taxing experience, both financially and emotionally. With Mitch on the project, we always felt a level of trust, and assurance that he was on our side. We would recommend Mitch to anyone looking for a top quality general contractor.

More importantly, he has always stayed true to project timelines. His team is trustworthy, qualified and professional on site. Mick is truly a man I can count on for projects when they need to be done right. There are a LOT of general contractors in the Bay Area, and I've worked with a handful of others; but when Mick and his team are on the job you'll have peace of mind knowing that he's going to be attentive, work hard and do it right the first time. To go even further, Mick once even saved my friend's bar, Rumpus Room SF, from a disastrous contractor who wouldn't follow through on their work. He sent one of his guys over in a pinch to help us get a bathroom finished just in time for inspection. Truly wish there were more GC's like this guy. You're going to be happy with the end-result when you have MJC Construction on the job!

Through my work I have had the fortune of working with Mick on a handful of projects. Despite the challenges presented, the varying scales, scopes and team structures Mick consistently approached his work professionally and maintained a phenomenal report with the clients and design teams throughout the entire process. For me, choosing a general contractor is only half the equation since it is the subcontractors who will be performing a lot of the work under the management of the general contractor. I also believe that the quality of the subcontractors is a reflection of the general contractor's management and problem-solving ability since the best SF subs can choose who they want to work with. For all of the projects that I have collaborated on with Mick it is very challenging to find fault in any of the subcontractors that he brings onto a job site. For me, this is significant. Mick has a Midas touch when it comes to construction quality and detailing, a smooth and upstanding relationship with his clients and a collaborative approach towards his work that enables him to complete tasks on time and on budget. When either of these aspects are at risk of not meeting his own expectations he immediately addresses the issue and adjusts accordingly. I recently completed a significant remodel of my own home the mission and because I thought it would be a conflict of interest to have Mick perform the work while we were already working together on clients' homes I found a different contractor. That decision has been my biggest regret of the last 4 years.

(Feel free to message me on yelp if you have any questions about repairing your old house walls and…read moreceilings - I've researched the heck out of this and am happy to share) Victor is a Construction Soldier - he started doing construction in the Soviet Army from 1973 to 1975 as a part of the construction forces - basically where everyone who didn't fight in Afghanistan went. I met him first when Alex http://www.yelp.com/biz/alexs-custom-tile-san-francisco was redoing my bathroom and needed some drywall work done. Victor has been back and done 2 major jobs in my house. I added him to Yelp because he's the kind of guy I want to find on yelp to work on my house - I want someone who has been in the trades for decades and works a regular job with a general contractor but takes on other jobs when times are slow with the general. Here's what Victor has done for me - repair plaster walls and ceilings - prime and - drywall (aka sheetrock) installation - drywall mudding - skimcoating over textured walls (this is also called smooth coating or sometimes floating) I would highly recommend him for all of the above. He is one of the few people in San Francisco that can repair a Victorian/Edwardian coved ceiling with actual plaster. (Your alternative is to install a layer of sheetrock to cover up the old ceiling. There's pros and cons to that, and he can do either - but if you want someone that can work with plaster, you will look pretty hard...unless you call Victor. Below I talk about his rates - but rates are not everything. I want someone in my house who cares about the job. Who thinks about the job and doesn't just bang him out. Check out the pictures of my ceiling repair - Victor spent hours (literally) mapping out my ceiling so that when he went to do the repairs he knew where the last corner would be (in old homes, the last corner in a room is the one that's not the correct angle - ie, not a perfect 90 degrees. It's usually the most infrequently looked at corner for whatever the use of the room is. It is the last one done when the room is being plastered. I digress). Rates - One thing that annoys me on yelp is that you can' get a sense for what home projects are going to cost before you call someone. The fact is that with most general contractors, it's just not worth their time to be in your house for less than $5k. I dunno about you, but my projects have ALL been less than $5k. - Example: Victor did a full repair job on a room in our house - the coved ceiling had to be repaired (see pictures) and all of the walls had to be repaired and smooth walled (they were textured). Total cost of the job by a general contractor - I got 3 bids, all over $6k not including materials. Victor: about $2k. (I say about because he did some other work which I'm backing out, and adding in materials - so yeah, about $2k). - Example: Victor repaired, primed and painted the entryway to our place - a stairway and 2 long halls. Floor to ceiling work. Was about a 10 day job, if I remember correctly. Again, about $2k. Maybe it was $1500, I can't remember exactly. Pros - Shows up on time. - Works hard - Cares about quality - Will teach you about the job if you want to learn a bit - Prices - Has the tools to do the job right (check out the scaffold he had in my place - that's some Sistine Chapel legitness). - Trustworthy - I just have no doubt I can leave Victor in my place alone - or even with my kids, he's great with them Cons - The reason Victor charges great prices is because he's just filling in around his regular jobs with the general contractor. When you don't have a general contractor, you don't have a lot of the overhead that goes into home construction work. - However, that means you don't have a GC. You don't have someone who is going to neatly move all of your furniture into another room - you move the furniture (as Victor says - furniture breaks easily and is hard to price, plus you don't want him wasting his energy or back on moving furniture). - Summary: you are the GC, so you have to manage the job a little bit. If it's a big job, that's more work for you. If it's a small job, then it's probably not work. My suggestions: - Call around and have a few people look at your job. You'll learn a lot by doing that. - Make sure you see sample work. Pictures, etc. - Hiring someone who has done this for decades really has benefits. They tend to do the jobs they want to do, not the jobs they have to do. They've seen everything your house can throw at them. And they don't sweat whether they are making $25 an hour or $30 an hour like young guys can do.

If you are looking for a licensed general contractor for your home renovation, look no further than…read morethe team at C Max Construction! We asked for at least 5 quotes, ranging from family/family friends who were general contractors to general contractors we found on Yelp, before deciding to go with this family owned business. Their quote was in the middle in terms of cost for equivalent work, only higher than family/family friend price, but with guaranteed priority. Right from the beginning, they were quick to respond to our request for a quote and more communicative than the other contractors we were talking to. They were also open to working with us through the quote to ensure it fit our budget and needs, which I very much appreciated. Scope of project: 1. ~500 sf garage conversion to living space (1bd, 1 office, 1 bath and kitchenette). 2. Move furnace, hot water tank and washer/dryer. 3. Remodel and reconfigure kitchen, 2 bath (with reconfiguration of 1 bath), update all electrical in the house, and install hardwood flooring, among other things. 4. PG&E service upgrade. Timeline: Started in April 2025 and finished December 2025. I'm sure they would have finished 1-2 months earlier if not for delays with PG&E, and delivery of cabinets and appliances. Workmanship: I am very particular about good workmanship (I read up on how things should be done for fun) and have to say that the team at C Max Construction are very detail oriented and take pride in doing the best work. Even my family members who have been general contractors for 30 years (but did not have the capacity to work on our project) mentioned their excellent workmanship. This says a lot! Work Ethic: They were there from Monday to Saturday every week unless they were waiting on materials and appliances. Communication: They kept us posted with photos via text every week. I also met them at least once a week to get updates and next steps. They went above and beyond by also helping us communicate with PG&E and contractors they referred for roof and countertops. Their referrals were also competitively priced and had good workmanship. Overall, I cannot recommend them enough if you are looking for a dedicated team for any of your home renovation needs, no matter big or small. I know I will look for them again for my fut projects
