4 years ago Tim and his crew put a new roof on our house. He made many recommendations and they were all spot on. He and his crew were meticulous down to the smallest detail. They fixed a leak in the garage that had been there for a long time, and no other roofer was able to fix. The roof and gutters look great! His crew was professional and very polite. He went above and beyond on this repair, which made us very happy! Early last month my wife accidentally backed into the side of the garage and took out 2-3' of drywall and siding, on the front and side, and demolished the garage door beyond repair. Luckily she wasn't hurt. First person I called was Tim. He came out the next day and gave me an estimate. I tried to get a few more bids, but only 2 companies responded and said they couldn't start for 6-10 weeks. About a week later I got an estimated repair cost from my insurance company, and it was less than $100 off of Tim's estimate! You need lots of experience to make such an accurate estimate! Tim said since it would only take 3 days he could squeeze me in, and started 17 days after the accident. He worked with Jordan, also a very nice man and a very hard-worker. They finished ahead of schedule, and everything was done to perfection. And that included ripping out some 24" wide heavy heavy duty homemade shelving, which was there when we moved in. We had a garage door and railings installed the next day without a hitch, as Tim had lined everything up exactly as needed. Gutters were installed 2 days later. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! read more

I had just recently contracted Tim and his crew to do an install of a patio cover and replace a sliding door that was a daily feat of strength to open and close. During the whole process, from estimate to completion, Tim and his team were professional and very accommodating to our situation. I had recently had artificial grass put in the backyard, and they were very careful to make sure that all of it was covered during their work and cleaned the workspace thoroughly to ensure my children would be safe running around barefoot after the job was done. What started out as a patio cover install turned into a massive dry rot repair job as well, after the teardown of the existing cover. After the discovery of the dry rot Tim came over and did a reassessment of the situation. He was very upfront with me regarding the additional repair work that needed to be done, while also doing his best to keep my costs down to not nickel and dime me. The work added another day and a half to the project and they did not skimp at all on the quality that was expected. The repairs, sliding door, and the patio cover turned out beautiful and couldn't have asked for more. If you have any household jobs that need to be done, make them one of your calls. They are a respectable company and they will not do you wrong. read more

Tim and crew have done several projects for me and the family. It started with windows 7 years ago. The installation, price, and attention to detail was second to none. Talk about a person who stands behind their work, I called him back to do more for us this year and keep in mind, he did our windows 7 years ago, he saw we had a leak and a warped slider. Both problems were not of his doing and we had been reaching out to the manufacturer of the slider to no avail, Tim contacted them and had a new door installed before we hired him or he new the scope of our next project! Unheard of!! Then went and personally inspected all windows to check the seal and see if there was dry rot. I've never experienced that in dealing with contractors after they are paid. On to our new project, we asked for quotes on solar, a patio cover, insulation, garage doors, outdoor kitchen remodel and concrete stain. Not only was he professional in getting us his quotes in a timely fashion, his quotes were less than other contractors who have done work for us in the past. Impossible for me to say no to a person who has demonstrated what other contractors use as a catch phrase. "we stand behind our work" means something to Tim Larson and his crew. So after my home being completely done as described above, my in-laws have had Tim do their garage storage units (hand made wood, imagine kitchen cabinets), a bathroom, i have had three different friends use him for solar, fire pits, windows, entertainment area, etc... I think the world of this company and certainly wish all were like him. If so, we wouldn't need platforms like this. Call Tim!!!! read more

Nor Cal installed a Solar Electric system on my home. From start to finish the communication and workmanship were first class! This company is extremely professional! All the workers are properly trained, and always under the supervision of competent Crew Chiefs Everything was done exactly according to schedule, clean up was great which these days is rare. This is one of the best experiences I have ever had with contractors doing work at my home. I highly recommend their services!! Can't wait to start enjoying FREE electricity! read more

Nor Cal Home Improvements is a high-quality outfit. Tim Larson, Nor Cal's founder and President, bends over backwards for his clients (no easy feat -- Tim is a big dude) and will spend as much time with you as needed, in order to make sure you're satisfied. Tim's guys are unfailingly polite, professional, and detail oriented. I've recommended Nor Cal to friends and business associates alike. It is my pleasure to write this "thumbs up" review. My family has used Nor Cal for everything from house-wide window and sliding door replacement to bathroom flooring to a master suite remodel to a garage-to-house conversion. . read more

I needed my closet remodeled. I also had them remove the TV cubby hole in the living room. This allowed the space to make the custom made closet twice as big. They did a fantastic job! I appreciated the professional work. They did the work within the estimated time and matched all the texture and paint colors perfectly. They even came back two weeks later to fix something I had messed up while I put in the laminate flooring at no additional charge!!! who does that? Great work! They really went the extra mile. read more

Nor Cal installed a new front door and sidelights. Jordan's work was impeccable, and he cleans up after himself (I had some work done last year by someone else and the workers left terrible messes in my home). Nor Cal also added pop-outs around the door to match the rest of the house...something I was told by another contractor could not be done. Tim the manager is very easy to work with, honest, and reliable. You can't go wrong with Nor Cal. I am VERY particular and I would definitely hire Nor Cal again for any work I need done. Unfortunately, I could not figure out how to attach the photo here. read more

Kudos for a job well done! We highly recommend them, and already have to others who are using them. Thanks Tim and team! read more

Tim and his crew were excellent. They replaced an old garage side door that was on its last leg, and installed trim around a sliding door. The guy on the job explained everything he did and explained why. Nothing shoddy about this outfit. They treated us with such professionalism and the work was top notch. I would recommend them to anyone. read more

I had the misfortune of having this company install Solar Panels on my house. They had to open the sheetrock in our wall to run electrical. He then told me I was responsible for repairing the wall they had cut. Did I mention that the solar cost me $20,000? I think that should have definitely covered the cost of replacing the sheet rock. Also, the owner of the company, Tim Larson (I think?), is very rude and standoffish. I did not enjoy talking to him and felt he wanted nothing to do with me. As the customer, I feel I should have been the most important part of the job. I guess he didnt want my referral? I would not recommend this company to anyone. I did not have a good experience read more

At my invitation, Timothy Larson the President of Norcal Home Improvements just came to my house to provide a cost estimate for several home improvement projects. He did nothing but bitch and moan about the City of Davis building inspection programs and was extremely unpleasant. He seemed uninformed about a number of building-related topics and was so rude to me that I asked him to leave. I wouldn't hire this company if you "held a gun to my head" after this negative experience!!! read more

Tim and his crew at Nor Cal Home Improvement replaced my roof and repaired extensive dry rot damage. They did an amazing job, they were fast and still provided the detail and quality as if they were working on their own home. They actually provided improvements that were not in the scope and they did it within the original quote. They provided quality workmanship and materials they really went above and beyond to do a top notch job for a very reasonable price. My sister used them for a remodel and they did a great job for her. read more

Nor Cal recently installed solar panels on my home in Yuba City and we couldn't be happier. I got a lot of bids, got a lot of misinformation and clumsy attempts to hustle me, but from our first meeting Tim was honest and straightforward. I knew exactly what they were offering and what I would pay for it. I decided to go with them because I trusted him. My trust was well placed. Heather communicated with me every step of the way to keep me posted on the project and schedule the installation. Gene and his crew of installers were punctual, courteous and clean. Every job has a few problems that emerge during the installation and this was no exception, but Gene explained everything carefully and found good solutions to keep the process moving. When the building inspector came, he took one look at the electrical panels, smiled and signed off. Nothing to see here folks, just clean, professional work. Heather coordinated the hookup with PGE without a hitch. Now we are making more electricity than we can use and PGE is paying us for the extra! Solar is great. Highly recommended. read more

Nor Cal did some work for my neighbor last yr and did a great job so when I needed someone to do a recent home renovation project I called Tim and Nor Cal for a bid. They were reasonable and did a really great job: professional and efficient. Overall, really pleased. I won't hesitate to call them again for another project & refer to friends/colleagues. Thanks Tim, Dan and the entire Nor Cal Home Improvement Team. read more

I recently had an office remodel project done by Nor Cal Home Improvements. This was my first time working with them and they had good recommendations. The reason I chose them to do my re-build is because he was the only contractor that showed up when he said he would, called when he said he would, did exactly what he said he was going to do, was very professional and easy to work with. He took into account that I had a business to run and he was very respectful of my time. He made the process very easy and was a good price on top of all that. I will call him again when the time comes, and I would recommend him to anyone. read more

Tim and his crew have been installing windows for us for years. They are true professionals and Tim truly cares about his customer.
