I recommend Golden State Builders Group because they recently completed the deck construction for my ADU in Castro Valley. They built a really beautiful and lovely deck. Their team was extremely professional, and without me needing to supervise them at all, they did the job very neatly and quickly. I truly recommend this company. The price they offered for my project was very fair, and I truly would rely on them for any deck work. and I want to express my gratitude to Leo, who was the project manager, and Angel, who led the crew. I was very satisfied with both of them, and I wholeheartedly recommend them for anyone needing deck work. read more

BEWARE! RUN - dont walk - away! The initial consultation went well, and they gave me an estimate on the spot which was far less than the closest competitive bid... but after contacting some past clients of theirs I uncovered the nightmare of how these guys work.. The stories are all about the same: 1. They will tell you what you want to hear in their initial consultation 2. they will get you into an agreement that has you paying a large percentage of the total up-front and for very small amount of work milestones completed. 3. They will subcontract out your job to the lowest bidder - the crews they hire are incompetent and unreliable at best. 4. your project may take months longer than initially promised. 5. Once things start to go off the rails they will stop showing up, and you wont hear from their admins or project managers. They will pocket the money you have already paid, despite having completed little work. Do yourself a huge favor and avoid these guys at all costs read more

Everyone who had substantial (or even minor) work done on their home knows how important it is to find the right people to work with. For that reason I had postponed a much-needed, extensive project of getting my 100+ years old Craftsman properly insulated, which entailed getting all windows replaced at the same time. After meeting Ben however, I knew I was in good hands. That's why I extended the project even further and got my entire electrical replaced, which still used some of the original knob and tube wiring. Although every construction project comes with challenges, all of Ben's teams were professional and courteous and most importantly, delivered quality work. I will definitely go back to GSB for any future projects! read more

Excellent. Jonathan was punctual at his evaluation appointment, and knowledgeable about solutions for repairing our deck. The crew extracted a dry-rotted post from below to avoid damaging the deck floor tiles. They were conscientious, efficient, and tidy. A couple of modifications were added to the original plan, and the cost was quite reasonable. Everyone was a pleasure to work with, and I would definitely recommend Golden State Builders Group read more

I had some gap in our siding and water was slowly coming in. I was really worried. Jonathan came by very quickly after calling and he was very professional, explained to me what he thought was happening and explained all the steps. Since it had been raining his team covered the affected area until the weather was good again. They matched my existing color perfectly, Jonathan was very easy to work with, very very responsive and flexible as well. They did a great job and will definitely call them again when we need. read more

We used Golden State Builders to work on an outdoor patio repair on our townhome. Working with Ben, we got great communication - we pointed out what we wanted done and that's how they approached it. Previous experiences with other contractors usually involved them trying to talk us into a much bigger project than we wanted but not in this case - we got a great explanation for what we needed. Most importantly, considering the scope of the work they made great effort to complete the job within a great time frame. I'd recommend Golden State Builders for any job and I am sure we will use them again in the future. read more

Golden State builders Group is the last two estimates we had for the project of replacing a backyard deck. We had a great experience with Yelp-referrals for fixing fences a few months ago. However, due to some mishaps, we got first three estimates from a different source. Once we realize the mishaps with Yelps, we quickly arranged two more estimates from Yelps. Ari from GSB came to estimate, we are so impressed with his professionalism to write up proposal in a hurry. Later on, they offered 12 months no-interest loan which sealed the deal. They started the project right on time. And throughout the process, Ari has been so accommodating with our unusual situations. They also set up WhatsApp chat group to keep management, accounting, and job supervisor in the loop. Carmen from accounting has been very helpful to set up financing and Jose and Jonathan (job supervisors) are very detail-oriented to do exactly what we wanted. All in all, it is another great experience with Yelps referral contractors. read more

I had a fantastic experience with this company. I had to rebuild the front deck, change window trims and install a new basement door. Jonathan came over for the quote: he spent one full hour with me, going over all the options and making valuable suggestions on things I had overlooked (I'm not a construction expert, so I appreciated his patient and friendly advice). After I selected the company for the project, Santos did all the construction: his work was consistently high quality and he was very communicative and open to small adjustments along the way. In the meantime Jonathan and other managers were always in the loop to ensure things were proceeding well: everybody was focused on keeping good communication with me so that there was no confusion or misunderstanding. I'm very happy with the results and with the experience overall: this is a very reliable company doing quality work while building trust with their clients. I will be calling GSBG again in the future. read more

We hired this company for several jobs. One of them being painting a two-story house. They did a good job with everything and we would definitely recommend them. read more

Recently did a siding replacement project and found GSBG though a vetted app called Thumbtack. They did an excellent job and the value/cost quoted was in line with the 2 other contractors I quoted. I was especially impressed with the communication, speed, and quality of the work. Ben was the project manager and he was very thorough and knowledgeable and frequently in touch with me to let me know the schedule, follow up on questions, and also to ensure everything was done to my satisfaction. I would recommend GSBG to anyone looking to do quality work on their home for a repair/remodel project. read more

It was great working with Ben and his team. From the time he consulted with me to quote the job, he was most prepared with samples and thoroughly explained the details of what needs to be done. From when the actual work started, his team was very reliable - always there when they said they would be - and they completed the job in less time than planned. We are very happy with the finished product (new siding) ... It looks great and it was a pleasure working with Ben and his team! read more

Golden State Builders Group - Before... with pieces of shingles siding starting to fall off - Siding Near Me - Walnut Creek, California

I was referred to Golden State Builders Group through a request on Angi. We had some long delayed projects around our home: replacing brown shingle siding on a large and tall west facing wall (with Hardy Board for reducing fire risk), replacing five windows and putting in a long drain the foot of our driveway which constantly has caused flooding in our garage. I worked with Ben from the outset and gradually came to an agreement on the scope of work and the price (which kept coming down as we negotiated). I was going out of town so the actual work was delayed by my request for over a month but as soon as I returned, Ben called and the work was scheduled. Throughout the process Ben communicated frequently and responded quickly to calls. All the subcontractors were excellent and the project proceeded quickly except when the weather interrupted the workers. Towards the end of the project, it turned out that I had accidentally paid one invoice/scheduled payment twice and when I pointed it out to them, they immediately refunded the overpayment. I communicated several times with Ben about the final clean up and it was all done as expected. I will definitely call Ben again when we have the next repairs and upgrades to our home. read more

They installed siding and fixed a couple issues with our carport, overall fantastic service.

Highly recommend Golden State Builders! They are dependable, responsive and fast. The project manager came out to my house to give a quote within a couple days and was very professional. We hired them to replace a rooftop vent and they were able to complete the work within a week of me signing the contract. We will definitely be using their services again in the near future and would happily recommend them to friends and family. read more

Ben and his crew replaced siding and painted two sides of our house which had rot and exposed plywood from tree damage over the years. They worked around existing an existing AC unit mounted on the wall and made sure it was waterproofed well especially since we're in an area that gets strong winds. They were very accommodating and coordinated with some window replacements we were working on with another contractor, and even finished under the original estimate they provided. read more

Highly Recommend anyone looking to do home repair and remodel to use Golden State Builders. They are all professionals from Quote to Finish. If there are questions or unexpected surprises, they handle it professionally and respond fast. I have recommended their services to two friends since using them and would recommend them to anyone in need of a contractor. Their commitment to their client and a job well done goes above and beyond. I sought out four quotes for my siding project on my house. Three of the quotes were very similar in price and one was very high (triple) compared to what the other quotes came back with. I asked for references and to see photos of previous work. I had questions about worse case and best-case scenarios. Ben from Golden State Builders came out for the quote. He got back to me with answers to my questions quickly and assured me he would be in charge of my remodel and would make sure everything was handled well. I really liked how on top of everything Ben was and that his communication was so responsive and understandable. Ben made sure I knew what the process for my project and let me know who was coming out, when and projected length of time to complete each stage of my siding project. Two things to note about my house. One, I had vinyl siding over the house that had been on since the 90s, the vinyl was over the old 1960s siding. Two, the front of the house had wood siding and the back of the house had stucco originally before the vinyl was put on. The plan for the project was to repair both, paint and replace the air vents for the crawl space. Worse case was if the front of the house had extensive damage due to wood rot, we would replace the front of the house with either stucco or fiber cement. First to come out was the Demolition crew to remove the old vinyl siding. The men were all respectful and did their work well. After the demo it was discovered that there was wood rot at the front and that some sections under the vinyl did not have plywood where it should be. We had discussed this during the quote and the plan was in place for next steps. Ben came by to look at doing stucco vs fiber cement. He showed possible options or styles for both choices. To help me stay on budget we talked about having either choice being pre-colored which would save time and cost on painting. Ben's crew checked the beams and window frames to make sure there was no rot or damage to the structure before putting the new plywood on. Once I had made my choice a new crew came out for the plywood install and to place the fiber cement on the front of the house (yes, I choose fiber cement for the front of the house). I liked how Ben was checking on the work and checked the structure to make sure everything was looking good. What we had not planned on was the stucco in the back had so much damage due to securing the vinyl siding that it would make sense to put on a small layer of stucco over the existing stucco vs repairing (filling in and patching the holes, then painting). Ben let me know what the difference in price would be to do a new coating of Stucco to give the back of the house a fresher, cleaner look vs repairing as planned. I decided I wanted this done right and we went with a fresh coat of colored Stucco. Next steps were scheduling a time for the painters to come out to do the trim on the house before putting on the new stucco. Then the Stucco team coming out to prep and then put on the stucco for the back of the house. I was really happy that the stucco team saw a few things to fix while they were working and they were able to take care of those items. They also noticed a few fix areas that they mentioned to Ben and me for the final stage of the project. (Last part of any project are any small details). Final phase of the project was making sure all the little details were taken care of. I suggest you have a friend, family member or someone come by and look at the project with you. A fresh set of eyes can see things that you can sometimes miss. I really appreciated Ben and his team, both their professionalism and expertise. My neighbor used Golden State Builders Group (after I recommended them to her) for a painting the front of her house and she loved how it came out! She enjoyed meeting Ben and found his team to be very professional. They cleaned up after themselves after the project was done. I enjoyed that she got the same level of attention for her smaller project that I got for my project. Big or small, Golden State Builders are professional the whole way through. I would work with Ben and his team again given the opportunity. I cannot say enough good things about working with them. read more

After having a bad experience with contractors in the past I was very hesitant to hire a new contractor. Benjamin came in looked around the property and even though he was one of 7 bids I had to work on the property, he constantly stayed in communication with me. When I finally decided to go with Benjamin and his crew the communication and workmanship were outstanding. Had new flooring, kitchen remodel, interior paint, rear sliding doors, interior doors, roofing, new toilets and plumbing just to name a few. Price was also a factor and his bid was much lower than most but the quality was fantastic! Really happy with all the work and will probably use them again for some other work, would recommend Benjamin to anyone looking to get some work done on their property. read more
