Edwin and his crew totally transformed our backyard! He helped us achieve the look we wanted and executed it perfectly! We now have a beautiful, modern oasis that we love. They basically gutted our entire yard, made our slanted yard level, installed hard scape with steps, as well as a full automatic sprinkler system, rebuilt our staircase and built an organic planters box for our kids. It was a big job and they finished it on time....even with the many changes and additions we made during the job. His crew showed up everyday, they were on time, respectful and very easy to work with. In a world where it is difficult to find trustworthy contractors (and we have had our fair share of terrible experiences), Edwin is incredibly rare and can't recommend him enough. And as a bonus, he refinished all the marble in our kitchen! read more

Extol Construction - General Contractors Near Me - San Francisco, California

See all

So this company hires sub contractors to do all their jobs and then they don't pay the sub contractor. Edwin owes our company three invoices from August 2019 and has given us the run around about paying us. I will make sure to report them to the BBB and to the CSLB as well as our insurance. read more

When you're remodeling, your contractor becomes your new family member, whether you like it or not. You see him everyday, his phone number is on your speed dial. So you better: 1. Trust him 2. Like him I can without hesitation say that Edwin falls under both these categories for my family. Extol has been redoing my backyard, which looked like a dumping ground for gophers, weeds, and broken cement, and made it an oasis. Their attention to detail is remarkable; you can tell that they pride themselves on their craftsmanship. Edwin even went shopping with me to pick out plants and pavers lending me his experience and advise, while paying close attention to my taste and preferences. I don't know any contractors who do that! When I've worked with contractors in the past, they've been hard to reach, or accessible only via email, which delays decision making which then delays the finished product. Edwin was so response, timely, and there for us every step of the way. I would recommend Extol in my sleep. No hesitation. read more

I have nothing but good things to say about Edwin and his crew. I used Edwin to re-sod my back yard, and he did a super job on all fronts- going above and beyond the call of duty in every area. He arrived on-time, stayed on budget, and worked late with his team on more than one evening. This was a turnkey job, and it was nice to work with someone who knew what he was doing whom I could trust. I would definitely recommend Edwin and his team.... A+ job! read more

Just finished another project with Extol Construction - they laid a decomposed granite surface in our small backyard, made our temporary staircase permanent, and cleaned up existing cracked concrete. We're very happy with how it turned out! read more

I guess I should feel lucky... after all, Edwin didn't disappear without a word as so many do. He simply called me -- after 4-5 months of discussing our project, suggesting ideas, asking for materials choices, referring me to someone to do drawings, and getting HOA approval -- right before we were ready to get going, and said he wouldn't be able to do my project after all. This happened toward the end of the summer, when it was really too late to hire someone else and get on their calendar. So he left me high and dry and stalled my outdoor project for a YEAR. Yeah, nice guy, but as he left me in a terrible position AND never actually did the work, I will not be recommending him. read more

Extol Construction is the crew you need. Whatever you need done will be done on time and professionally, no excuses. Edwin is a hands-on worker, not an absentee boss. My wife and I moved into an older home that needed some serious updating. After reading the Yelp reviews I decided to give Extol Construction a call. Edwin Moriarity came out and provided me a very competitive bid. He and his most excellent crew showed up on time every day until the job was finished. What started as a rear fence rebuild, became a few other jobs that we needed to have done. Extol Construction additionally took care of a heavy duty landscaping job (removing a rock garden) and a full-on front exterior brick refinish (not a small job by any means). We will be using Extol Construction in the future as we finish a basement, add a hot tub and replace all our exterior decking. Our house is our home and Extol Construction helped us achieve that. read more

Last year the backyard was a mess. Edwin created something great and today, a year later, i realized it is holding up so well and felt I should submit a review. We wanted a functional area that would be low maintenance and still visually appealing. Edwin walked us through many of our ideas and guided us to create something better than we could imagine. Quality- Everything was done with care and detail. A year later nothing has been an issue- from the automated watering system, to the Ipe deck, to the concrete and pavers, Care- Edwin took the time to walk us through every decision point and give us an honest assessment. This held true from pouring concrete to choosing plants Price- I think I have a good estimate on the cost of all the materials and the total number of hours his team put in. He could have charged us more without complaint. We got a deal. Honesty- We had ideas on things to do that would have meant more money for Edwin. He talked us out of them thinking we would regret it or there were cheaper ways to do things. He was right. I couldn't recommend a company and contractor any stronger. read more

We can't thank Edwin enough for all of his amazing help in our backyard. We rent our home so didn't want to spend a ton of money, but we wanted to get our almost completely dead & overgrown lawn back green again & simply clean up the look of the garden as a whole. Edwin not only stayed within our set budget, but did what I thought was impossible & got our grass green again. He also got us felt & wood chips to go around all the edges to level everything out & keep the weeds to a minimum. It's clean & simple & we get so many compliments on it. Not only that, but he then taught us the best ways to keep it that way ourselves which I loved. When we eventually get our own house, we will use Edwin again for whatever that yard may need! read more

Edwin and his crew are amazing. They have done two major projects in our backyard and are always a pleasure to work with. Traditionally, I hate dealing with contractors but Edwin is the exception. He delivers quality work at a fair price - he doesn't stop until things are perfect. We were difficult in that we wanted our hardscaping to be as green as possible for food growth, Edwin really worked with us to create a beautiful setting without the use of harsh chemicals, pressure treated wood, etc. I would recommend him time and time again and will use him for whatever projects I have in the future. (Will post pictures soon) read more

Edwin and his team just redid our backyard and it looks amazing!! They arrived on time every day and were totally reliable and very professional. My husband and I made MANY changes along the way, and he was agreeable, flexible and offered great advice. He paid attention to every detail and accommodated all of our requests (and there were many). He even created footprints of my kids when the cement was being poured. We will definitely work with him again whenever we have any construction needs! read more

Extol Construction was the 3rd contracting company we started doing business with for a fence and pigeon abatement at our business. The first guy we hired was a dud, the second guy was a cheat and a thief. To say I was skeptical whether Extol would even show up for an estimate is an understatement. I was surprised and pleased to see them arrive on time, do excellent work, spend 2 hours trying to get something to work better and charge a reasonable price. Both Edwin and John were considerate of our customers and their workers were excellent about cleaning up every day. I would call them again in a heartbeat. Totally recommend. Would give them 10 stars if I could. read more

We just finished a big job with Edwin and his crew. They were a pleasure to work with and we look forward to working with them again on other projects in and around our home. They helped us completely overhaul our outdoor space. What started as a small project just cleaning up some odds and ends and making the space a little more functional ended up as a huge project because we trusted Edwin and his abilities. We tore down a cooking structure, removed 4 very difficult to demolish boulders (and no complaints from any of the guys who jackhammered for days on end!) tore out every plant, weed, bush and tree, removed all debris and gravel, tore out a hot tub and deck surround, replaced fencing, refinished all woodwork including multiple decks and fences, removed some old slate tile and created a beautiful sitting area with new connecticut blue flagstone, cleaned and glazed existing slate walkway and put in a lovely new yard that our boys are thrilled to be able to run around on. There were a couple of bumps in the road but Edwin and his team never complained, just did all they could to make everything as perfect as possible. They were very courteous with us and our kids and diligent about every detail. We couldn't be happier with our experience with Moriarty Construction and hope you give them a go for your next project. read more
