What a find! Manny is terrific, and his team (hi, Jose!) is wonderful. They remodeled my whole bathroom including conversion of tub to walk-in shower. It was as painless as any remodeling job could be. Manny was so responsive to questions and requests and even helped me with some design dilemmas. He has an eye! I could not be more pleased and grateful for his work, help and support throughout the project. read more

We employed Manny Escobar, general contractor, to renovate our condo before we moved in. We needed to convert a tub-shower to a walk-in shower. He and his team are very talented and provided us with all the work necessary to complete the task. Manny is intelligent, competent and gave us information we needed to have a beautiful, successful job. He also painted the inside of the unit, at our request, so we could start fresh. Manny and his workers are friendly, flexible and on time. We couldn't ask for a better outcome or contractor. We highly recommend him. Tracy and Joan Newkirk read more

Manny Escobar from Golden Bay contractor is a thief. He and his workers are completely incompetent. They took my money and ran. He claims he is a Christian but all I know is he ain't going to heaven by the way he abandons his clients and steals their money. He took advantage of my wife in her depression and made her writes checks and he cashed them with no guilt. I reported to the state contractor licensing board but they only fined him $2000. Slap on the hand for someone who left my house in shambles and left me broke. Use caution when dealing with this thief. He even used my CC at Home Depot for $5000 completely unauthorized. I'd love to hear from him. It cost me nearly $200K to repair all of his incompetent and poor quality work. I could go on for hours about how all the electrical had to be ripped out and redone. How nothing was square. How does some place studs at 15", 17" and 19" spacing. I've got pictures, video and CSLB case number. DON'T USE THIS GUY!! read more

Manny and his crew did an extroadinary job on my remodel. They took a 1970's home and transformed it to modern times earning us a place in Clientele Luxury Magazine's TOP 10 HOMES IN THE USA. And we did it in the middle of the pandemic. Manny is patient and kind and is always there to walk you through a problem. Love these guys like family. read more

This is the second job that I have used this company for over the past few years. They remodeled my father's home in Stinson Beach and did a magnificent job. Since I was designing the project from Chico, I had concerns about how easy the task would be. But Manny and his men made it such a smooth and easy process that I felt comfortable the entire time. The end result was incredible and my father is very happy! The next job was to remodel my own home and add on an extra bedroom. We had very specific needs that Manny was very sensitive to and worked around completely. His men were respectful, kind, and very efficient. Manny made wonderful suggestions along the way and helped me save money.I would recommend him and his men for any job big and small. I can promise you won't be disappointed! read more

Manny and his team were amazing! Their bid was reasonable and did not change (other than some extra paint which I thought we had so not their fault). His workers were very nice, respectful, hard working and kept me up to date. The electrician he used was great at giving me options along the way, double checking to make sure I liked the work he was doing and the final product was amazing. Would definitely use them again! read more

I'm writing this as I sit in my gorgeous new living/dining room thanks to the excellent and detail-oriented work of Golden Bay Contractor. Manny Escobar, the owner of the company, is a gem! He's incredibly smart, honest, reliable, responsive (emailing at all hours of the day!), creative, and always one step ahead on thinking through potential issues or how to do things in the most efficient and cost-effective manner. He not only helped us stick to a tight budget for the current scope of our project, but without being asked, thought of ways we could set the ground work for when we could afford the next phase of our project (setting up pipes, ducts, and gas lines all where we would need them later). At every stage of the process, he was on top of it all and came up with innovative solutions for unique issues that came up with our house. Being our first foray into remodeling, when I was overwhelmed with decisions, Manny was often able to advise or select something in-line with my overall vision. He was truly a joy to work with. Manny's team is also top-notch. All the guys worked so hard and were astonishingly fast, yet never took shortcuts that would sacrifice quality--they clearly took pride in their work. They were all really nice to boot! They even helped a few neighbors with some urgent needs while they were on the job just because they were there! I've heard so many nightmares about contractors, but we had the complete opposite experience. Save yourself the headache and go with Manny and Golden Bay Contractor--we couldn't be happier that we did! I would recommend them to anyone looking for outstanding service and a well-done construction project. read more

Manny is as good as it gets! His work is impeccable and precise, his crew is professional and his price is fair. We recently completed full remodels for 3 bathrooms and a master bedroom thanks to Manny. I had prepared myself for the worst and we got THE BEST with Manny and the crew at Golden Bay Contractor. Arrival each and every day on time by a crew that was ready to work. Daily check ins in person, by phone and by text from Manny himself. Easy problem solving when small issues arose (and of course they did). Do not hesitate to hire Manny for your upcoming project. I cannot rave enough and would recommend him to anyone! read more

Don't bother calling this guy. He came out, looked at the bathroom and then we never heard from him again. Never got a bid.

I have worked with Manny and his crew for many years. As an architectural designer, I can tell you that Manny is always professional, goes out of his way to please and has a terrific crew that does quality work. With all the construction projects he has done for me, from full house remodels to foundation work, he and his crew are always first class. They are neat, considerate and talented. Manny's foreman is Ramiro. A super guy and super talented. The one thing I highly respect with Golden Bay is they are efficient and get the job done when they say they will be done...or before...that is quite rare in the industry. Manny and his crew work hard and never complain about the conditions I have thrown at them. They are first class. read more

We were introduced to Manny Escobar by our realtor. Moving into our home in Tiburon, we had a list of repairs we needed to deal with. We also had a few improvements we wanted to make. I could not be happier with the work that Golden Bay Contractor completed. They replaced siding, corroded plumbing, installed sump pump and drainage in the crawl space and refinished hardwood floors. Manny's crew was exceptionally hardworking, professional and courteous. Manny was always available to answer questions. He kept me apprised of budget and progress. Our small project got attention and focus even though I know Manny had a few much larger projects 'on the go' at the same time (an addition in Tiburon and one in Corte Madera, I think). All work was finished on time and no shortcuts taken. We will be remodeling bathrooms in the near future and will absolutely have Golden Bay do the work. read more

My wife and I recently finished our first major remodel, and feel so lucky that we hired Manny Escobar as our contractor. We initially found him while we were house hunting. He was finishing up a remodel in Corte Madera when I ran into the neighbor who was almost done with their extension. The work looked fantastic, and they had nothing but great things to say about Manny and his crew. When we met with Manny we instantly knew we wanted to work with him--he was on-time, professional and incredibly patient with us. Before we started, we had heard so many horror stories about contractors and remodels but our experience was the complete opposite. Throughout the process, Manny was incredibly responsive, patient and respectful of our time and budget. He was endlessly responsive too, responding to emails and texts at all times of day and night. His crew worked tirelessly to meet our incredibly tight deadline, and multiple neighbors commented how good/respectful the entire crew was during construction. On top of a smooth and swift remodel, the final product is exactly what we hoped for, and the work beautifully done. Manny and his crew helped us build our dream home (with as few gray hairs as possible), and for that we will always be grateful. read more
