It's a strange experience with this business. They mentioned to stop by in the afternoon. Around noon time I was told they did not have time today. When I asked if they can schedule a time. They said they were running a full schedule. Is this the right way to deal with customers? read more

Patrick Molina and his crew - Reuben and Ernesto all receive 5 star-rating from us. They are: Honest. Provided the highest quality. So friendly. Exceptionally clean. Dedicated and reliable. They definitely have pride in their work and craftsmanship. Thank you, Patrick, Reuben and Ernesto! We expected high quality, but what we got exceeded our expectations. Even through the hottest days of August, They worked tirelessly, without complaint and did not "rush" the job. Take a look at the before and after photos. Patrick provided the highest quality redwood (we won't be staining/painting these!) and extra reinforcement to ensure the most sturdy structure. I highly recommend Bidwell Construction - you can't go wrong. read more

See all

We still love Bidwell Construction and been working with them since our first review. Among other things, Patrick has helped us give a facelift to our inlaw unit, including installing a kitchenette, which looks fantastic. This remodel was worth being on a tv show! He designed and created a bench which doubles as a storage area for our blankets. He has helped fix a faulty wiring system. He has helpled install a wall-mounted TV over our fireplace mantel and create a system for the cords to be hidden behind the wall. What we love about Patrick is that he is talented, dependable and always creates a very detailed bid before doing any job so that there are no surprises. Would highly recommend! read more

Patrick called me back right away and even though he wasn't able to help me with my project he gave me a lot of great input. I'd work with Patrick in a heartbeat. read more

We met Patrick as he was walking in our neighborhood with his son. It just happened that we were in need of a contractor for some siding repair work and Patrick was advertising his business. Great timing! It worked out perfectly that we needed dry rot repair and Patrick's background as a former employee of an inspection company worked to our advantage. Patrick assessed the exterior helping us to identify potential problems prior to our official inspection. He was able to make the repairs with great skill. My husband was very complimentary of his work and we would absolutely use his services again! - Mary Anne read more

We love our new redwood deck! Patrick was easy to work with on the design. He provided professional advice on the structural integrity needed while listening to us for the features we wanted to be implemented. He would say I'll see what I can do" and the next day we would find that he exceeded our expectations. Patrick's workmanship was excellent both with some repairs that were needed during the construction and with the beautiful finish work on the deck details. The project was finished on time and the job site was kept neat during tear down and construction. We are looking forward to enjoying our new deck for years to come. I highly recommend Patrick Molina with Bidwell Construction for remodeling projects that require creative designs and excellent workmanship. read more

Patrick has done two jobs for us. His sheetrock work is excellent. He even drove to Santa Clara to buy the special baseboards needed to match existing walls. His work is impeccable. As an added bonus, Patrick is punctual and really friendly. We are very happy with the fine work he did for us. read more

Patrick, Thank you so much for constructing the perfect Office for our home. Your work was perfect. The final product came out better than we ever could have expected. Thank you for finishing quick and showing up when you said everyday during the project. You stuck to plan, stayed true to original estimate and did clean work! Thanks again for your hard work. Can't wait to talk to you this summer for some more potential renovations. I would refer Patrick to anyone looking for a job well done. All the best, Kim and Adam read more

After discussing my projects on the phone with Patrick, I scheduled an appointment for an estimate. I have a very busy schedule. I rearranged my day to accommodate his schedule. He was a NO SHOW. and a NO CALL. I don't know what kind of work he does, but I'm not impressed by how he doesn't keep his appointments or respect someone else's time. read more

Patrick, of Bidwell Construction, is a gold mine of knowledge, know-how, expertise, and professionalism. When he professed that he's built houses from the ground up, he wasn't kidding. There is NOTHING Patrick cannot do, and do it with utmost perfection. After much interior work from electrical to plumbing, to odds and ends, Patrick took a 3 week break to go build and remodel another client's kitchen. He returned to do deck work, build stairs into our hillside, followed by completing a retaining wall. We are beyond pleased and will use his services always. We HIGHLY recommend him for any type of work you may need! read more

Patrick and his crew have completed 3 different jobs - baseboards, tile work, a large ceiling repair, including sheetrock replacement, stucco replacement & painting. They did an excellent job all at reasonable costs. No job is to big or to small for Bidwell. I would recommend contacting them for any type of construction work. kmw Santa Clara read more

I found Patrick's services in a flyer that was sent to my home in the mail. I happened to be looking for a handyman and finding the flyer in my mailbox was perfect timing ! It seems Patrick can do big jobs and even small jobs.... to me even my small jobs or too big for me but not for him. Patrick regrouted my shower and fixed a broken toilet for me which was a big help to me. Patrick is very friendly and knowledgeable and I feel that it was a fair price. I have a handful more of a honey do list and I will be calling Patrick again. I've also referred him to my neighbor. .she has a honey do list too.. :) read more

The GOOD: I hired Patrick quite a while back to do some wood repairs/replacement to my roof eves and facia board. It started off well as Patrick showed up on time and got to work right away. Patrick noticed early on that he had miscalculated how far 3 wood beams went in to the garage thinking they were just short superficial pieces. It was a lot more work and would involve damaging stucco, but he would still do it all for the same price. Then he suggested an alternative where he would cut out the damaged wood ends and splice new wood using dowels etc. You'll never be able to tell and structurally will be strong he claimed! I guarantee your satisfaction with all my work he boasted. I felt bad he'd miscalculated and as long as the outcome was the same I said OK to the alternative. The BAD: these splices had to be pounded on with some force. After Patrick was done and gone I noticed the decorative wood beams spliced on had very noticeable indentations where the pounding had occurred. Patrick came out the next week and patched over these dents with some compound then repainted. The WORSE: Over the course of the next few months the newly replaced wood (apparently moist green wood) began to shrink and very visibly did not line up with the old wood anymore, and the patched dent areas began to blister up under the paint. I called Patrick about his guarantee. Told me he was really busy right now and would come out in a month to look at his work. After a month he called to cancel and reschedule. Wasn't sure when, but he'd get a hold of me. To this day, several calls and an email later I have NOT seen or heard from Patrick. That's to bad as I had lots more work for him. Just finished a Bath & Kitchen remodel. Frankly finding him on Yelp I was surprised he's still in business! read more

Patrick just completed work on my home and I am very happy. I called him for an estimate, that same day I called he came to see the area. Throughout the job he kept me informed, he did his work efficiently and was very meticulous. I'm hoping to use him for more projects in the future. read more

I found Patrick on Yelp at the end of 2015. We had a leaky shower situation and Patrick came out within about a week to take a look at it. He got us on the schedule in about 2 months which was fine since we had another shower in the house and I needed time to save up for the work. Patrick diagnosed the problem as old shower titles with missing grout that had allowed water to penetrate through to the floor. He installed a new tiled shower, door and linoleum floor in exactly 2 weeks. All the work he did was laid out in our original contract. There were no hidden fees and the work was done on time and looks beautiful. Since he guarantees his work and offered to come back in a year free of charge to reseal any grout that was loose I took him up on it. He showed up as promised w/I a week, resealed the grout no charge. I would definitely use Patrick again for any future projects. His prices are on the higher end but you get what you pay for and he is a perfectionist. read more

Patrick just completed a bathroom renovation for me. He did the design - running his ideas by me until we agreed, and then the implementation of this rather large project that included plumbing, electrical, sheetrock replacement, lots of tiling and painting. The result is a top class bathroom, very well built in a reasonable time period. I have used Patrick in the past for smaller jobs, and after this, I would not hesitate to have to do any kind of re-modeling or repairs. read more

Patrick did a great job both in responding to my initial request for a contractor and in getting the job done. He's the "go-to guy" if you have some construction (or in my case, re-construction) that needs to be done. read more

Patrick Molina, owner of Bidwell Construction, is a perfectionist who does superb work at eminently reasonable prices. More than that, he's a friendly, helpful, and reliable contractor who clearly explains what needs to be done, what is being done, and what is to be done - and who does the work he contracts for with great dispatch. I'm so impressed with him and his work (he repaired a water- and insect-damaged wall of our house) that I've arranged for him to install solid Brazilian cherry and tile flooring throughout our house and to do a number of smaller tasks. I can't recommend him highly enough. read more

I had seen some of Patrick's previous work and he came highly recommended. Our patio space was virtually unusable due to deteriorating wood and planter boxes and lack of functionality in the available space. He had a great design sense and created a very useable and relaxing BBQ area. He also went above and beyond and did some extra touch-ups to really create a finished space. I recommend his expertise and skills to anyone who asks. read more

We had Patrick out to our house for a few handyman projects (installing a hood vent in the kitchen & repairing a sinking door sill). He is very knowledgeable and thorough in his work. After assessing the problem, Patrick went above and beyond in purchasing an additional product to resolve the damper problem we were having. He is very fairly priced, works efficiently and in the end, cleaned up making sure the area that he worked on was cleaner than when he started. We will definitely be calling him next time we need something fixed. read more

Patrick from Bidwell Construction When above and beyond. He has restore my faith --that yes their is someone out there that is from the old school. Beyond reproach (materials, doing what he says and backing up his work. He gave us a time line for the work and kept to it. When we planned to use him for another job he told us that he had customers that he had already given commitments to and gave us a time when he could give us his full commitment. He did not "string" us along just to get the job and tie us up. I like that!! Yes he is hired for his next job with us!! Note: My brother is a general contractor over in the Valley-- so I grew up in the trades 19 years old to now 68 years old. He has my vote!!! read more
