Working with Martin as the project manager was a breath of fresh air. I know from previous renovation and construction projects how difficult it can be to go through these experiences as a homeowner. Martin was very responsive via text and phone with updates and plans. I felt very confident in his expertise. Norcal and Martin made an otherwise very stressful time much more manageable. Would work with Norcal again. Highly recommend! read more

Norcal Construction was highly recommended by our water damage cleanup crew after a pipe broke in our bathroom ceiling. Our shower had to be gutted down to the studs. Martin our contractor and his team at NorCal Construction put it back together quickly and better than before. Can't say enough good things about the process. Martin worked directly with my insurance adjuster to ensure all of the restoration costs would be covered. Once our estimate was approved I received daily updates via text on work schedule times. The work was completed on time with no surprises. Relieved to know I can count on a great construction contractor outfit here in Livermore. I'll definitely be using them for future remodel projects. read more

We had a flood in our master bath on the second level that leaked down to the main living room. Martin at Nor Cal came in and listened to my vision of updating the bathroom since we had to demo the whole bath. He had great ideas and helped me envision the final layout. The quote we received was in line with other quotes. I chose Martin and Nor Cal because I felt comfortable having them in my home because when he was here showing his crew the job, they genuinely wanted to work and help with the situation. Communication was easy. We will be using Nor Cal for a few more project in the future. read more

I started with NorCal on kitchen remodel. The crew did such a great job and the communication was excellent throughout. If there was a problem, they'd fix it. Since then I've used them for a bathroom remodel. I've also called them in an emergency toilet backup (it was bad) and they came by quickly to repair. It was a messy job and they did all the right things to make sure it was sanitary to get back in. Oh, and they got insurance to pay for it! In an industry where high quality, reliable help at a fair price is hard to find, NorCal consistently comes through. read more

Martin and his crew were able to turn what was left of our master bathroom into a thing of beauty again! A huge leak under the house made it necessary to tear the bath room and part of the den apart and I I was not sure it would ever be the same, but these guys were amazing! It might not be the same though. I actually think it's better than before. The construction crew was very friendly and knowledgeable and actually finished ahead of their estimate. Martin oversaw everything and kept us in the loop constantly. We got estimates from several companies, but I'm very sure that we chose the best one. If I ever need any more restoration work, Martin will be my first call. He listens carefully to what you want, explains the process and then his amazing crew delivers perfection. Give them a try...you won't be disappointed! read more

***Fast, efficient, and polite*** The team at NorCal makes a bad experience (water damage/fire) a breeze. Numerous companies come in and out for quotes and pictures and this company was the most considerate of our time, most knowledgeable and efficient. It was refreshing to see how clean and organized they are at the end of each day. They are considerate of house and items in the house that have to be moved and work as if it was their own home. Ask for Jobert, he always gives an accurate update of their time, work schedule and finishes the job on time. Jobert also has great ideas and a good design eye, don't hesitate to ask for suggestions. Five stars and two thumbs up! read more

The team at NorCal did a fantastic job in the restoration of our home after a water leak. We had a few other companies come and give us quotes but when Martin came to our home and gave us an quote we felt at peace right away and knew we were in good hands.

I have used Norcal Construction for several construction projects and it has been a positive and professional experience every time. From beginning to end, the management is always very thorough. Norcal is very knowledgeable on all aspects of their buisness and are proficient in providing valuable suggestions on cost and best outcome of a project. The contractors they use have always been highly skilled, therefore delivering an excellent product. Overall Norcal Contruction can deliver professional, high quality and high value work for a fair price. I have used less qualified providers in the past and end up having the project cost more due to the low quality of project delivered. Thanks Norcal for awesome service. read more

We give NorCal in Livermore a "5". We worked with Tom Foley in the restoration of our home after a fire. We appreciated Tom's expertise, patience and practicality. NorCal helped us work within the parameters of our home insurance, and also guided us through some changes we decided to incorporate. In my mind images will forever linger, images of my daughter's tears over lost treasures. I can still feel the grimy texture of the plastic bags lying in heaps on our kitchen floor full of memories and junk. Non-restorable is the technical term. We were out of our home for seven months, shuffling through mounds of paperwork, memorizing the layout of Home Depot, negotiating priorities as a family, arguing depreciation with our claims adjuster, mourning lost heirlooms, and waiting the long wait for money due. The fire consumed a year of our lives. Having a company at our side that could handle everything from the electrical to plumbing to painting for our 1959 Livermore home was a godsend, and Tom Foley with NorCal was an integral part of that. Thanks, Tom! read more

I hired this company upon the recommendation of my insurance company. I had a 750 sq ft addition done and kitchen and bath remodels. They were less than professional and I have had several issues over the ensuing years such as NO JUNCTION BOXES in my attic for the canned lighting,(thank God we didn't have a fire), NO CLEAN OUTS in the new master bathroom, ROMEX THAT WAS BELOW THE 5' LIMIT left exposed, flooring was to have been blocked per the contract and I found out it was not done, and now I find out during a pest inspection for the sale of my house that they left FORM BOARDS and SCRAP WOOD under my house after they were admonished by the inspector to remove all of the wood and scraps under the house. The boards and scraps had LIVE ACTIVE TERMITES. I asked them to remediate this issue by covering the bill to Take Care Termite of 2335 and they refused to do so and, they told the Contractors License Board they were not willing to mediate. Had they removed all of the wood I would not have had termites. Further, they damaged my custom cabinetry and faucets (they did cover those expenses after I threatened them with the license board). They did fix the clean outs, they paid someone to install junction boxes and they paid someone to block the floor that they were paid to do and failed to do so. You make your decision on using them. I'm just stating my case. read more

Norcal Construction did remodel work on my shed. I made it into a outdoor living space, but needed a lot of work done. They came in at a very reasonable rate, did the job in a timely manner and kept it clean throughout the whole process. I'm going to enjoy having BBQ and backyard parties for years to come. Thank you Norcal. read more

I used NorCal Construction for my home remodel. They did an outstanding job. Doug and Michael are on top of their jobs, when I called they answered and addressed any concern or question I had. I always felt like my project was top priority to them! My house was quite a project!!! I started with a cramped, outdated 3 bedroom 2 bath home and ended with a 4 bedroom 2 bath beautiful open floor plan. We took out a load bearing wall to open the space and added 100 square feet to the front room. We did a complete gut and remodel of the kitchen. I had a pipe break in my post tension slab right before our remodel was to begin. I called Doug and someone was out right away and took on the whole project. I needed to have a whole house re-pipe. I also had all of the siding replaced on the exterior due to dry rot. I upgraded my electrical panel and added new outlets inside and outside and had 13 new can lights installed. NorCal took care of every detail from the beginning plans, the permits and inspections. They really did the job right and didn't cut any corners! Every single contractor that worked on my home was on time and showed up everyday, cleaned up each night before they went home and very professional. The workers were also very friendly with my kids that always wanted to watch what they were working on. I have a beautiful, basically brand new home now, I have had many compliments about the quality and beauty of my home. I would never use anyone but NorCal for any future project I may have. I am extremely picky and I never had to worry! Thanks a million! read more

Thank you Ed for managing the process and doing the assessments, Sergio for the fabulous work with the paint, Jim for the flooring, Steve for the plumbing, and Joe for taking our call on a Saturday morning and helping us out! Highly recommended!! read more

Our home had water damage from an upstairs bath and NorCal was referred to me by State Farm Insurance as a preferred company. The damage was extensive upstairs and down in our home. Drywall, texturing, painting, tearing out of tile in one shower, rebuilding bathrooms and bedrooms just about every contractor you can think of was used at this job site. Flooring to the ceiling was changed in several rooms. Each contractor associated with NorCal that came here was very knowledgeable and professional in every way. They worked closely with the home owner giving suggestions and provided insight as to where to turn to see samples of what is available on the market. By sharing that information it helped expedite the selection process and ultimately complete the work in a timely fashion. The work the contractors did here was excellent. NorCal Construction delivered in every way. read more
