In fact, I was comfortable enough with the experience that I recommended Victor to friends and family. Unfortunately, about two years later, we began experiencing recurring mold on the baseboards in our master bathroom, along with water damage to the wall outside the shower. Victor was quick to come out and repair the wall and replace the baseboards, but the problem continued to come back. Eventually, we had another contractor inspect the bathroom, and we discovered that the entire master bathroom subfloor was wet, moldy, and damaged in multiple areas. I brought the inspection and video evidence to Victor, but I was disappointed by his response. Rather than taking responsibility for investigating the underlying issue, he suggested that we had punctured a pipe behind the shower, which was not the case. After further investigation, we learned that the shower waterproofing had been improperly installed. Holes had been drilled through the waterproofing membrane of the shower pan to secure it, allowing water to leak through and eventually cause significant damage to the subfloor. Fortunately, his insurance company came out and inspected as well and found it to be faulty installation, and reimbursed us for the cost of correcting the damage (over $20K). While I understand sometimes mistakes do happen, I found it very disheartening that he would not take responsibility for the damage which made the entire process of redoing the bathroom quite a headache.

Thankfully my fiance and I got a referral to Victor and his team at Castro Home Builders. Victor had attentiveness to detail from understanding our scope of work, meeting at the site for a walkthrough, and ultimately providing a thoughtful bid.

Though we decided eventually to go with another general contractor, we had them as a top contender and will plan to use them should our project turn south with our selected GC.

Moises is one of the best contractors I've ever worked with. I've done plenty of remodels…read morethroughout my home, and I plan on using Moises / MD Companies for any/all future work! In my experience, there are 3 things you want in any contractor: 1) good price; 2) high quality; and 3) fast / efficient. 1) Price - Moises has always come in lower than all the other bids. Now, when I have a new project, I don't even price-compare anymore. I just call Moises and trust that he will give me the best price. 2) Quality - See attached pics. Moises does top-notch work. We get compliments all the time re: our master bathroom, which Moises/team upgraded for us. 3) Speed / Efficiency - Contractors and remodel projects ALWAYS run late. While that also (occasionally) happens with Moises, not only does he do a great job keeping you updated on progress and revised completion times, he also tries to find a way to make it up to you. Moises is a good guy. You'll do well by hiring him for your home remodel.

Moises was hands down the best contractor that we have worked with…read more We have had our horror stories with contractors before so we were a bit apprehensive when we started working with Moises but we were glad that we worked with him. We had him install a multi panel sliding door on one of the walls. The project involved touching the structural framing and had to go through multiple rounds of city inspections. Moises walked us through the whole project plan including how he would handle city inspections. Moises' crew showed up on time and diligently completed the necessary work in due time. The crew ensured that the area was cleaned up thoroughly at the end of everyday. We were kept well informed at all stages and Moises was very responsive whenever we had questions. The project was completed in a timely manner and the finishing is top notch. We were very happy with the overall timeliness, quality and the great customer service Moises has provided us and would highly recommend for any home improvement projects.

NC was an absolute pleasure to work with, the workers came on time every morning, they completely cleaned up at the end of each working day, and they even built a temporary fully operational kitchen on our back patio with a running sink, washer/dryer, stove and frig that we had use of the entire time. Al himself went over all of the architects plans with us at the beginning of the project to triple-check that we completely understood and were familiar with how the job would progress and what we could expect at the end. And the final result was nothing less than astounding. Everyone who has seen our kitchen has raved about the work, the detail and the outstanding professionalism of the work they did, even the city inspector and our insurance adjuster.

Chris built a custom/built in BBQ island with a ledgerstone facing and granite top, a custom bench and herb box and a redwood bench to attach to an existing redwood deck. Chris stepped in, put together a work schedule that planned for materials arriving in time to ensure continuous start to finish work on the job (which we were obviously sensitive to at this point). He answered questions promptly and efficiently so that materials could be ordered in a timely fashion. He applied a highly level of detail to the design and made great suggestions for durability, aesthetics and structure. His prices are reasonable and without surprises or catches. We could not have been more pleased with the work and are already putting together designs for an additional interior project that we want to work with him on. He is a pleasure to work with and he will give you a honest opinion and wants to deliver a high quality project.

When it comes to a renovation,…read morethere is nothing more important than Trust - trust that the General Contractor you select has the skill to execute your vision, trust that they can deliver on time/on budget, and trust that they will always deal honestly and fairly with you through every phase of the project. After interviewing several firms, we placed our trust in Greg Maxwell to be the general contractor for the remodel of our 3 bedroom 2 bath house. It was a big job, and Greg and his subcontractors got the project completed ahead of schedule and within our budget. He collaborated well with us, and also with everyone else on the project: architect, construction engineer, roofer, and city inspectors. We are extremely pleased with the results of the remodel, and we cannot recommend him more highly. The scope of the main (upper) floor changes included 1) demo'ing the 4 small rooms down to the studs, removing a load bearing wall, and installing a new structural beam with foundational supports, 2) reclaiming an exterior light well to add interior square footage and adding a 2nd floor balcony, 3) rebuilding the space as an open floor plan with new kitchen, dining room, living room, bathroom, and office/study, and 4) raising the ceiling. The stairs between floors were rebuilt in a different configuration. Every room in the lower level - 2 bedrooms and a bathroom - was touched in some way, all for the better. This was thus a major project that Greg initially estimated at 6 to 7 months. Thanks to his team's skills and dedication, we were able to move back in after 5.5 months with almost all work done after 6.5 months. The only issue that cropped up after completion of the small(!) punch list was repainting a porch floor due to excessive moisture from the dryer vent. Early in the project, after opening up the roof and walls, we discovered that prior work under a former owner had not been done to code. What could have turned into a major disruption was smoothly handled: Greg accommodated a change order to fix, and still kept to the original schedule! Greg was always available to answer questions or hear feedback regarding the project. His frequent checkins and open communication style ensured that we always knew what was happening, and he clearly outlined what we needed to do on our end to keep the project on track. We also felt that he brought his years of experience to us by offering great counsel at every step of the way. We always trusted that we were in the best of hands. His billing was complete and clearly itemized. We had an amicable working relationship, and we're pleased that the good feeling still endures after the project completion.

So Danny cam out with his workers about two years ago and enlarged the holes for me. What surprised me is he wouldn't take any money for the job. He said it only took him a half hour, so no charge! Then recently our deck was rotting in certain places so of course I remembered Danny. I expected to replace the whole deck but Danny said he could repair it for about 3K. This sure beat replacing it for 30K! Danny is honest, hard working and could have easily sold me a 30K deck but instead took my best interest to heart. This kind of honesty is rare in today's world. I think you will be very happy when you meet Danny.
