I wish I could give 10 stars for Shaddle Construction's work on our master bathroom addition…read more Working with Shaddle Construction was like night and day in comparison to the original contractor we hired who did a horrible job. Shaddle's level of workmanship, attention to our needs, and old-fashioned customer first attitude was clear from the start. The honesty and professionalism of John Shaddle, his subcontractors and his crew were evident in every interaction we had with them. It took us almost a year to find Shaddle Construction after the debacle of the prior contractor, but it was worth the wait. John and his subcontractors figured out how to correct the innumerable errors in workmanship in the bathroom interior and the exterior stucco. The shower needed to be completely demolished and redone. Subcontractor Chris Field meticulously made sure the floor slope was correct, the walls were plumb and painstakingly measured and rechecked his measurements before cutting each tile. Chris used a laser beam and a level to check each tile he installed to make sure the tiles were even. He was patient, professional, exacting and a joy to work with. The resulting installation is absolutely beautiful. Subcontractor Armando, of Armando Plastering, fixed the exterior stucco. He is an artist who managed to match exactly the style of the original 80-year-old stucco. The crew made sure that our house was protected from any dust and debris, cleaned up daily and were respectful of our house and us. We love our new bathroom and are so grateful to Shaddle Construction for making our dream finally come to reality. Our faith in people and contractors was restored. Thank you, John!

Michael and his crew did a 9 month project for us, building out our basement in the City. It was a…read moremajor residential job, and we lived upstairs throughout rather than to incur the additional expense of vacating. The job was finished at end of '22, and the final permit inspection has been accomplished. We are so grateful that we chose Keaveney Construction, and we have no hesitation whatsoever in giving them our heartiest review and recommendation. Although it wasn't our first home improvement project, it was our first in San Fran, and definitely our most involved and largest. Thank you Michael, Jimmy, Aiden, Boyce and the whole gang.

Michael is the guy you want to be managing your construction project. He is a great problem solver…read moreand I would trust him with every decision that has to be made, big or small. He cares so much about the finished product and he delivers on all his promises on time and on budget. He is extremely fair on any changes to the original plan, and of course there will me many of those! His team excels at great woodwork and he can come up with a solution to any obstacle. He has the network to get you the best price on foundation work, tile, cabinets, counters, and anything that will impact the cost of your project. He can handle anything and I would never build a house or remodel a room without his help. We did a full gut remodel, and he was onsite every single day making sure everything was done right the first time. He takes ownership of the entire process and he will never nickel and dime you on small stuff. He always takes the time to answer any question or strategy and he will literally never take the easy way out on a decision. He wants your house to be great and he will make it great! No project is too big for his team, they can do it all. One reviewer said they would trust his life, and I couldn't agree more! He really cares, he won't let you get screwed by anybody he interacts with (Best Buy, Locksmith's, Painters you name it!). We absolutely love our house, and you will too!

I was asking my architect one day to recommend a contractor. The architect said "well, if you value…read moreprofessionalism and courtesy there is only one choice: Alex Martin." I do value professionalism and courtesy, so I hired Alex to do a one-day project, installing picture moulding in 10 rooms. Alex did a great job with that, so I hired him to do a 3 week project that included demolition, construction, planning, inspections, dealing with difficult neighbors, the whole 9 yards. And guess what: the project turned out great. All 5 projects Alex has done for me have come in on budget (one came in substantially under budget), all were done on time (within the constraints of the weather), the finished work was always top notch, and the price was reasonable. When Alex shows up to do the job, he usually brings his assistant Jeff, and the two of them work the job in a quiet, efficient, and thoughtful way. When they find something they weren't expecting, they talk about it. They go over their options. They ask for the owner's input if it is appropriate. They pick a course and they follow it. They get work done efficiently, but never in a hurried or sloppy way. Alex's communicates well, his bills and estimates make sense, he is responsible, and guess what else: courteous and professional. Jeff is about as nice and easy going a guy as you'll ever meet. All the subcontractors Alex has brought into my house have been professionals. Alex made sure that when subcontractors came in to my house to do work, they already knew exactly what they were supposed to do, because Alex had gone over the job parameters with them previously. When Alex is talking to you about project options, he will give you a variety of options, and he can talk about the positives and negatives of each one. They can find the best or the most reasonably priced materials, your choice. Like any San Francisco contractor who is worth his salt, Alex Martin is a busy man. It is not easy to get onto his schedule right away, but when he says he will be there Tuesday, he will be there Tuesday. And when he says the job will take 3 days, it will be done in 3 days. Highly recommended. Any serious work that needs to be done at my house starts with a conversation with Alex.

I have always had a positive experience thus far. Adam will probably not be your cheapest bid, but he won't be your highest either. His craftsmanship and talent is worth it. He is communicative, fair, easy to work with, and gets the job done right! As a Realtor, connecting my clients with professionals I can trust is very important. I recently referred Edwards Construction to my clients who purchased a home in Sausalito, who planned on remodeling the living and dining rooms. Adam Edwards won the bid in this competitive market, and the client has been raving to me about the quality of his work and his professionalism. The clients are already discussing hiring him for both their kitchen and bathroom remodel, and thanked me for making the connection. Adam is making my clients' new home more beautiful, and his professionalism and integrity will win him more referrals from me. Focusing on customer satisfaction and 'Win-Wins' are exactly what both of our businesses are based on, and that allows me to refer him with no hesitation.

I also really like that this is a family-run, local company and Tim in particular is extremely easy to communicate with. He is very good at following up, paying attention to detail, offering pertinent advice that helped me make better decisions and save money, etc. Everyone who has seen his work in my home admires it a lot and I would highly recommend him (I would definitely use him again for any future projects).

For our project we replaced the foundation and rebuilt our entire basement, coverting it to an additional floor. Our house went from a 2 bedroom 1 bath to a 5 bedroom 3 bath with an additional large family room. We worked very closely with Chris Burnham and his superintendent, Chris Donatelli, during the entire process. First off, Chris gives realistic expectations regarding budget, time estimates, and potential problems or issues that might come up during construction. Some other contractors under-bid to try to get business. Also more inexperienced contractors don't anticipate all of the potential problems that can arise during construction. Chris is respectful of your budget but honest about what to expect in terms of budget and time estimates. Chris and his crew were always professional, prepared, and on time. During the remodel they worked very hard to help turn our vision into a reality. Our intention was to create a seamless flow from one floor to the other and make the remodel look as close to the original 1920's construction as possible. It was therefore necessary to hire carpenters, brick workers, and other skilled craftsman for the remodel. Chris only hired the best people, so we know that every element of the remodel from plumbing to carpentry was done to the highest standards. Chris is a perfectionist and has pride in his work. He made sure everything was done correctly, and fixed things without prompting that we did not have the expertise to notice. We moved out for 6 months of the remodel and had to move back in before construction was completed. He was extremely accommodating and went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable. On the rare occasions that there was an issue with water or heating, he came on nights and weekends to fix the problem. He even came on a weekend to let us into our house with the spare key when we locked ourselves out of our house one day! Chris did not disappear toward the end of the remodel and made sure to complete everything on the "punch list". He has even come to fix the occasional issue or problem months after the construction. The best part is that he doesn't do it grudgingly- he has true pride in his work and wants his clients to be happy with the finished product. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Chris Burnham, Chris Donatelli, and his whole crew. They have the talent and experience to carry off any type of construction project out there, no matter how complicated. If you hire them you will not regret it!
