Oh, and MCD's bid included building a back porch for that price! They completed everything in a week because they swarmed us with workers who worked on both projects concurrently. And both projects are finished to a high quality - the porch looks stout enough to land a helicopter on! Anthony, Meagan, and Dan were a pleasure to work with. We had a supplier problem that could have delayed the shower project for a month. Instead, they found a work-around and the start time was only delayed a week. Two thumbs up for MCD because that's all the thumbs I got!

As someone who works with many contractors professionally, I was particularly impressed by Anthony's "open-book" transparency and honesty.

If you want a builder who prioritizes integrity and craftsmanship, I highly recommend MCD. Thank you, Anthony!

As a new home owner, having to do stuff for the house is still quite an unknown journey for me. And…read moreso, when we had wood rot on our balcony beam replaced, I was not excited to get it figured out. I read many reviews on Yelp, and after evaluating many contractors, I decided to use Yelp's project tool to contact Clark Innovative. When you do this, you get responses from many other companies too. Many reached out before Chris from Clark did. I ended up making an appointment with one of them to have them take a look at it. This person began has contract biz recently... and he did not seem confident. The way he was looking at it, he was reacting in a way that seemed like it's a bit of a pain in the you-know-what job and said it was going to cost a lot. He was a nice guy, but he did not instill confidence in me that he knew what he was doing. (He never even sent me a bid) After that, I wondered if I should reach out to these other companies that responded, but my intuition was telling me to wait a bit longer. Clark did eventually respond with apologies, and made an appointment to come look. They looked at it and just the way he was acting, I could tell this person knew what they were doing, and they came up with a solution to just replace the rotted portion, saving us half the cost! (So yeah, I believe the innovative part of their name!) It was all incredibly reasonable. Dates were pushed back etc, because of rain and other things, but I honestly didn't mind it. Chris tried to be a good communicator, and even when he wasn't, I could contact him and he'd respond. He was just busy. Sometimes, you can just tell with people who is being genuine. Who wants to simply do a good job for you, without gouging you or ripping you off. We need more of these people in the world right now. I'm glad I listened to my intuition, and waited for the right company to do the job. And I will definitely use them again for future work. It's really nice to have a good contractor in our back pocket.

When we did have a set back, Daniel took it upon himself and went out of his way to make sure things were fixed/adjusted as quickly as possible. Both bathroom projects went smoothly, and we had a great experience with Daniel and his crew. We would use Alcazar again.

The person who did the work - Barrett - could not have been more professional or personable.

Phil is a fabulous contractor. I would highly recommend him. He helped us rebuild our home after…read morethe Tubbs fire in 2017. He walked us through every step of the process, and was always available for every question or concern that we had. Some contractors take a day or two to return your calls. Not Phil (or his wife, Michelle). He would either pick up immediately, or call us back in a few hours. He was always transparent, and willing to explain everything in great detail. His guys are fabulous to work with, and are such hard workers. Their craftsmanship and care for their work really shows. He also stands by his work. When we had an issue with some water leakage, he came immediately to fix it and covered all of the expenses. Hire Phil. You won't regret it. You won't get a flaky contractor. His work is beautiful, and we love our new home.

I am *really* fussy about hiring contractors. So many of them conduct their business sloppily and…read moreunprofessionally I can't believe they stay in business at all. So I do my research and am VERY selective in who I hire when our house needs work. My wife and I hired Andy Fernandes and Adval and they proved to be the real deal. Andy was *always* prompt - every time he or anyone from his company was scheduled to arrive they arrived early. Andy and his crew were communicative, clearly very knowledgeable, and straightforward, which is to say that they told me *and showed me* what was really happening and not what they wanted to promise or what they thought we wanted to hear. And they followed through exactly as they said they would. The quality of their work was outstanding. We had a few kitchen cabinets that had gotten damaged by the 2014 Napa quake and were looking like they were going to fall off the wall. Andy sent over a master carpenter (he spent years building stuff for moneyed people on Martha's Vineyard, who can be quite demanding) who didn't "upsell" us by telling us one of the cabinets needed to be rebuilt (the build cabinet in their own shop), he showed us in detail exactly what the problem was and convinced skeptical me that a new cabinet built from real plywood instead of the particle board of the cabinets the flipper who sold us the house had installed was the way to go. They reused the facing from the old cabinets, so the match was immaculate. Price-wise, yeah, they weren't the cheapest I could have found, but they were most definitely not close to the high end, they were right in the ballpark, and I figure if I demand quality I have to be wiling to pay for it. And we most decidedly got what we paid for. I repeat again that I am VERY picky about contractors, but I unhesitatingly give Adval Construction my highest recommendation. Our job was pretty small, but I would hire them for a big job in a heartbeat. This is the way construction contracting is supposed to work.

The communication was top notch throughout the project and the team made sure no detail was overlooked which made us feel that our project was in good hands. I would highly recommend Adval!
