On the left I show sloppy work my my General Contractor. On the right you can see how much better it looked after Gateway cleaned things up.
Geoff O.

Communication: I have had excellent communication by e-mail and by phone with both of the sales / coordinators I spoke to. They are polite, honest, and responsive. On sight, the estimator and workers have also communicated extremely well. I like all these folks! Scheduling: They sent out their estimator (Gilberto) quickly both times I called. And when I needed to schedule urgent work, they came quickly. Work quality: After we purchased our house I had them come out. Gilberto told me the roof was fine, but I should ask the sellers for their roofer in case there was an issue within its warranty. I paid them nothing for this fantastic advice. I called again to have them seal a roof penetration (for a gas fireplace flue). Gilberto came out and said they could do that, and also inspected the awning I had a GC build over our balcony. It was clearly poorly done by that GC, and I asked him if Gateway could improve it. They did an outstanding job on everything. I was amazed that a 5 person team came at 8:30 on a Saturday. Did everything in a couple hours, and the result was absolutely perfect. Professionalism: The workers themselves were extremely professional. They made no mess, cleaned up after themselves, and treated me respectfully. They worked efficiently as a team, and helped each other succeed, stepping in with the right tool when needed. No goofing around. I was actually on the roof the whole time because I was working on a related project. In response to other comments on here: You *can* test roofing and water penetration issues in a drought! Use a hose. Borrow a neighbors hose, and connect 2 together if you need to. Spray water all over your area of concern for at least 10-15 minutes. If you paid for something to keep water out of your house, test it. Test it ahead of time too so you can give actionable feedback about what worked and what didn't.

Workers stepped the roof over our kitchen. They began work at 8am on a Saturday, and failed to install protective sheeting as discussed.

They destroyed my home. They contaminated my kitchen with fallout debris. They destroyed my chandelier. They wrapped all of my lights in plastic. They failed to install a protective barrier, and my home was covered in debris for years. Find someone else.

Roof and center patio skylight

Worked with a number of roofing contractors to get quotes for a full roof replacement and a center patio skylight replacement. Most were too busy for a call back for a quote or submitted quotes that were over priced. Gateway Roofing provided a reasonable quote for a re-roof and center skylight replacement. The team was professional and answered all my questions once the quote was presented. Got on the waiting list (~6 months) and the work started about 2 weeks prior to the original scheduled date. Rocky managed the crew well and communicated any changes to the daily schedule and even worked on a weekend. The roof installation was during a heat-wave in September 2017 and it must have been 120-130+ degrees up on the roof. Hard work in the best weather conditions, great job team! The crew was fantastic and cleaned up thoroughly at the end of each work day with Rocky or one of the team informing me about the schedule for the next day of work. The skylight was scoped and build by Atlas sheet metal and is absolutely amazing. The Gateway team prepped the roof appropriately to accommodate the skylight. It was a large skylight they had to get up to the roof and installed/attached to the roof piers without a hitch. Rocky returned several times after the installation of the roof and fine tuned a drain gutter and fixed a few small items to my satisfaction. Great team at Gateway, highly recommend them.

The big test for the leak fix comes this El Niño season!   If it ever gets here ;-)

Mick was flexible to keep working until all dry rot was repaired, even when the job ended up being bigger than expected. Thank you Mick for repairing our house.

This involved shoring the house, pouring all new foundation and retaining walls, and expanding the walls and framing. Overall, Mick (owner) and his team's work was thorough and detailed, and I would recommend him to other home owners, and consider him for my next project. 1) Mick (the owner) was the most thorough in bidding compared to other contractors. He came to the house multiple times, brought subcontractors to look at the job, and ultimately gave an estimate that was competitive and had my confidence. 2) Mick was one of the safest and most punctual contractors I have met. The work would start at the exact time every day, the work site would be thoroughly cleaned each day, and there would be high emphasis on safety (hard hats, signage, etc) 3) Mick had to communicate with an architect, three engineers, and a variety of subcontractors and he handled that very well. He was always a step ahead in seeing upcoming problems to resolve. 4) Mick was at the job site and worked with others himself each day! This raised the quality and made sure the work stayed on track. 5) the work finished on time, as previously estimated, despite the fact that the work was done during the rainy winter. 6) Most importantly, the end result was great, all inspections passed on the first try, and other contractors and subcontractors that visited the site were impressed. Thanks Mick.

He's a great communicator and has been really patient with all of my requests. He is very accommodating and has explained his approach to solving issues with my house to me, while offering different solutions and trade-offs when necessary. As with many older homes, unexpected issues have come up along the way, which expanded the scope and cost of the project. However, he has been proactive and efficient in getting the additional work scheduled and completed promptly. His expertise has been structural work, but has also helped me with clearing code violations, resolving plumbing issues, electrical issues. You'll be in good hands with Jose and his crew.

I would like to thank Jose and Junior for their great work…read more I shared my concern about rainwater coming toward my house during heavy rain, and about the drainage hole that is often blocked by leaves or by people purposely dumping their dead leaves. Jose designed and fixed the area in a way that properly blocks the water and also looks very nice, clean, and professional. On the last day of the cleanup, they cleaned everything very well. Junior is very friendly, and just like Jose, he is very helpful. Jose is not only experienced in concrete work -- he also has experience handling many different types of issues. He is very patient in answering questions and clearly explains what he is doing and why it is done. I truly appreciate their hard work, and I will definitely work with them again in the future.

Jim and his crew did a phenomenal job on our foundation replacement project. From the first time I…read morereached out to him, he was very patient and forthcoming with me, even offering advice and guidance with how best to get started with approaching the city, as well as assessing bids. We have a three-story Victorian that needed the original brick foundation replaced, as the condition was very deteriorated and well past its useful life. Jim came out to assess the situation and wasn't intimidated at all. He is a straight shooter and tells it as it is, and our job was going to be a major one. I picked Jim because he truly knows his craft and enjoys what he does. Plus he doesn't sugarcoat the inevitable surprises that will arise (plus he has a wicked sense of humor and some great stories to share). We started in the middle of last Summer and finished right on schedule during early Fall. I will be the first to say that it was a huge capital investment to undertake: excavating, removing the original perimeter foundation and shoring up the massive structure, while ultimately putting rebar and pouring the new concrete. I was quite nervous about all of the things that could have gone wrong, but Jim communicated constantly throughout the process and made sure his men were on task and doing quality work. Mid-way through, we had a incident where the sprinklers were inadvertantly triggered overnight, causing water to flood into the trenches. Jim came out immediately with his men after they became aware of the situation (even though it happened on the Labor Day holiday) and personally went to work to shore up the beams that were supporting the house and checking and double-checking any structural weakness caused by the water. Because of his diligence and attentiveness, I honestly felt like we averted a major catastrophe. Jim treated our home with the care and attention he would have given had it been his own home. He has a penchant for finding creative solutions to deal with a host of unexpected problems, and through it all, he was punctual, steadfast and very thorough with his oversight, being on-site every day. We have now moved on to our next phase of the project, but without Jim Patterson & Co, we literally wouldn't have a solid foundation for which to proceed. My thanks to him and his team for the transformative work they did to our forever home.

My wife and I have been meaning to write this review for 6 months now. We saw Jim's bright orange…read morevan on the Golden Gate Bridge yesterday and it reminded us to get our great experience on Yelp! Last summer Jim and his crew replaced our 130 yr old brick foundation. It was a huge job and we shopped it around, but Jim's estimate came in at the bottom end of the range. What really won us over, however, Jim's approach. He is old school and dedicated to the craft - you could just tell by the way he approached the bid and the conversations w/ the Engineer. And he did not disappoint. He showed up early every morning, had his crew in line and busy every moment of the working day. His guys respected him and all mentioned how much they learned working w/ Jim. I was pretty hands-on, crawling around and checking things. Jim helped me understand all of the parts of the process and how he was making key decisions. He was patient w/ my questions and often went the extra mile to keep me happy. For example, I needed to replace some drainage and he had his guys dig up the concrete on the side of the house to help me out (definitely NOT in the contract). There are also little personal touches that you can't pay for. When his crew found an antique bottle from the SF Dairy Company, Jim put it by the front door with a little note - he knew that this kind of thing would matter to us. Anyway, the job was done on budget and ahead of schedule with great communication throughout. Most importantly, Jim always worked with us to resolve any issues (real or perceived) that I came to him with over the course of the project. Five stars!!

I had a really great experience working with RSL Structural Inc. and Ricardo, the owner…read more Ricardo completed our earthquake retrofitting, foundation crack repairs, and all related structural work, and I honestly couldn't be happier with how everything went. Ricardo was easy to communicate with, knowledgeable, and very thorough. He took the time to explain the work, answered my questions, and made the whole process feel much less stressful. He also handled all of the city permit paperwork, which was a huge relief and saved me a lot of time and hassle. The work was done as promised, inspections were scheduled smoothly, and everything passed city inspection without any issues. It gave me a lot of confidence knowing the job was done right and up to code. If you're looking for someone reliable and honest for structural or foundation work, I highly recommend RSL Structural Inc. and Ricardo. I would absolutely work with him again.

He and the team were professional, knowledgeable about the EBB requirements, and handled the process smoothly from start to finish. Ricardo handled all the paperwork through the EBB portal, as well as obtaining the permits to perform the work from my city's building department. When it was taking longer than expected to obtain the permits from the city, Ricardo was kind and courteous helping answer my questions and following up on my project's behalf. During the actual retrofit portion of the project the crew arrived on time, worked efficiently, and kept me informed throughout the project. What sets Ricardo apart are his fair & competitive pricing, excellent communication, extensive knowledge, and friendly attitude. The job passed inspection with no issues, and I now feel much more confident about my home's safety in an earthquake. I highly recommend them for anyone considering a retrofit.
