I hired R.A.D. to replace the entire foundation of my historic home based largely on their stated…read moreavailability and their reviews. It was a massive mistake. R.A.D. was unprofessional, disorganized, and performed poor quality work that had to be corrected by another contractor. First, during the post and pier work, a jack failed, dropping the center of my house nearly an inch. I had to run out to catch the crew as they were going home and insist they come back to evaluate the situation. They wound up having to call their supervisor (who was offsite for much of the project) and doing emergency work to jack the beam back up and shore up the walls. This resulted in cracking of my woodwork and distorting of my cabinets. For comparison, the company that replaced R.A.D. managed to complete the project without so much as one additional crack. R.A.D. claimed to have completed the bulk of their post and pier work in November, and we were slated to start on the perimeter foundation replacement in early January. However, a few days before the scheduled start, the person currently managing R.A.D.'s projects (as the owners have apparently stepped back from day-to-day duties) contacted me asking about taking pictures for the permit. Permits for historic houses take months to process through the city, which R.A.D. knew when they sold me on the January start date. They could have easily taken the photos during the week they were at my house in November, but failed to do so. They sold me on a date they were unprepared to meet, and expected me to accept a three-to-four-month delay due to their lack of preparation. When I confronted their manager about this, he stormed off without a word. I then had a conversation with the owner of the business, who apologized for the delay and admitted fault, but refused to apologize for the behavior of the manager. He also offered nothing to mitigate the delay and issues. At this point it was clear to me that R.A.D. could not be trusted to complete the project. The owner agreed to finish up the post and pier work so I could move forward with another company. Imagine my surprise when the other company opened up the perimeter wall, and we discovered that R.A.D. had failed to remove eight of the old post and piers that they had been contracted and paid to remove. These post and piers were over a hundred years old and badly deteriorated. In fact, their deterioration was one of the main reasons we undertook the foundation project in the first place. The new company, SD Footing Repair (who I cannot recommend highly enough), evaluated the remaining post and piers and determined that they were still bearing load. They replaced them at cost, for which I am grateful, and finished the project with no further issues. The irony is that I only hired R.A.D. because of the promised January start date, while SD Footing Repair had been unavailable until June. Because of the mismanagement of the project by R.A.D., I wound up having to hire SD Footing Repair anyway, and the project started in July. I am kicking myself for not hiring the better company in the first place. R.A.D. was probably a decent company back when the owners were involved in the daily work. But based on my experience with them through 2025-2026, I would never recommend them to anyone. If R.A.D. chooses to dispute this review, I will be happy to provide full documentation to support every statement above, and can file with the California Contractors State License Board to allow them to confirm the details. I have held off on doing so because I would rather move ahead with the remainder of my renovations.

I came across Value Crafters via Thumbtack's quote generator. They were responsive from the start…read more I was originally only looking to get my house painted, but through the course of our consultation I mentioned redoing my front yard. Doron was honest and practical about the ideas I gave. He incorporated my idea and executed it beyond my expectations. Through the demolition to completion he had quick communication. If there is something you don't like he will make the changes and not pressure you into his ideas. I ended up getting a full front yard remodel, upgraded garage door, exterior paint with some wood removal and stucco application. The cost of my project was on the higher side, but you get his design skills, patience, understanding, project alterations, and openness. My interactions with him mirrored the energy of a good friend.. Very easy to talk to. When you choose Value Crafters know they work fast! Which is a good thing just have your project cost already set aside to meet the payment schedule. I would work with them again.

The people are punctual and polite, the job they did surpassed my expectations and was completed on time. So when I needed to replace some of my flooring they were the only people I trusted to do the work. Initially I was concerned that the estimate they gave me wasn't accurate because the price was so reasonable, but when the job was done (two days early!!!) there were absolutely no extra fees or add-on's. In every experience I have had with them they go above and beyond! You can tell this company takes pride in its work and the satisfaction of its customers. I have personally recommended them to numerous friends of mine and have NEVER heard anything but positive feedback.

There is a reason SD Footing Repair are the go-to contractor for historic homes like mine. They know the job inside and out, they work hard and efficiently, and they take pride in their work. SD Footing Repair replaced my perimeter foundation, along with a number of post and piers. Every single knowledgeable person, from the foundation engineer to the city inspector, has praised the work they performed. I never really thought much about foundations before, but I am actually proud to show off the foundation SD Footing Repair built for my house. It's that nice. We had the foundation certified and inspected without issue. Jason, the owner of SD Footing Repair, was on site frequently throughout the project, and was professional and easy to work with. It's obvious that he cares about his crew and his customers, and does everything he can to make an intimidating home renovation less intimidating. Replacing an entire foundation is an unpleasant project to have to undertake, especially on a historic home. At the end of the day, though, SD Footing Repair ensured the project was completed on-budget and ahead of schedule, with no drama. In fact, they even cleaned up the mess left by another contractor (literally). I would not hesitate to recommend SD Footing Repair to anyone needing foundation work, especially on a historic home.

Michele, one of the owners, was able to get me into the schedule for a free estimate the following week. Tom, the other owner, came the following week to inspect the foundation and look over the structural engineer assessment. Tom was very nice and personable. After a few days, Michele was able to get me a quote and get me in the books for November. I asked her to put me on the cancellation list. Usually companies don't really move us ahead, but Michele was very quick about the appointment books. She first moved me up a week and then she asked me if they could start work the first week of October. Jason, his foreman, and his crew were very quick and knew what they were doing. They got the job done in 2 days for a 1180sq foot house. I want to personally thank Michele for being amazing. She replies very quickly to you even though she's super busy with all the admin work. I asked for a receipt and she got it to me asap. Tom and Jason, who are the other owners, were very friendly and will answer all your questions. Their foreman was very nice too. He was the first one at the house and the last one to leave. He explained to me what was going on. They have competitive pricing. I chose them over the other contractors because they know what they're doing and they will make sure to complete the job by the deadline. Thank you again Michele!
