He will not underbid to get the contract but he will do the job right - every time. He is hard working, straight shooting, and comes with no BS. With a ton of experience in residential and commercial projects he's been able to fix a lot of issues that other roofers have missed (or caused) on a few properties! For the central coast, I cannot imagine giving a higher recommendation roofing than I give Value Added Building. Seriously a terrific company and someone we continue to work with on a personal and professional level. Thanks Walter!

Walter came to look at one of the apartments that was for rent. This was right after we informed him he didn't get the job. He looked around, never even took an application. Then we get notified from Fair employment and housing that he's suing the owner. States she refused to rent to him.. TOTALLY FALSE. So beware if he buys a job for you. It's pu lic record look it up. Oh and he's got himself some lawyer Credentials. I'm assuming this wasn't the first time.

The cabinetry and countertops are are stunning. They installed barn doors for space efficiency in a small unit. Elite installed new sliding glass doors and a beautiful new front door. They overhauled a dingy laundry cabinet to make it look like it was newly constructed. In doing so they identified an electrical issue that was not to code and they rectified it. They installed new flooring and lighting throughout the unit. They also identified an issue with the water heater and recommended a replacement. As with most construction, there were delays and set backs however overall the job was well done and the remodel was completed to my satisfaction.

Then you have to pester to get them to come every single time. Then didn't listen to the city inspector and had to remove part of the driveway to verify the depth was correct. Then didn't actually finish the job, leaving a side-trench which was a hazard as a result of the initial dig for the depth. Reluctantly had someone come back to fill it in, but said "I'm doing you a favor by doing this." No, jerk, you're finishing the job you were hired to do. Then come to find out he didn't pay the paver supplier the $3500 in materials until they put a lien on the house. Never, ever trust this guy, he's a crook and a jerk.

They handled the full reroute of our plumbing through the attic and out to a new tankless water heater, and everything went smoothly. Justin and Omar were amazing!

If you are looking for a professional and genuinely easy to work with crew, these guys are exactly that. My husband and I would like to have them back for more projects down the road! Highly recommend JK Wood Construction to anyone who wants quality work done right.

Their craftmanship, pride, and dedication to do a first-class job was evident in the final product. Omar, the project foreman, is the BEST!! He always anticipated what needed to be done and assigned the right craftsman to do the job. He is extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of construction and is hands-on with helping and educating the crew about how to perform each job. Over the years we have done many home remodel projects but never have experienced perfection like we did with the JK Wood team. All team members showed up on time ready to work and cleaned up the worksite before they left on a daily basis. They were all respectful and were all a pleasure to have around during our construction project. We very highly recommend JK Wood Construction.

More than that I felt that my money was treated like it was their own, all options were always discussed when it came to purchases. If he noticed a chair was scratching when moved he would show up the next day with felt pads and then be on to the task he was there for - attention to detail was incredible. Shoes were removed and every room was cleaned every day - couldn't be happier! Since then I have had a custom made barnwood chicken coop and tree house designed and built at another property. I will begin an addition soon . Highly recommend , very trustworthy.

Eduardo and his team came highly recommended by a friend. He provided his professional insight and was instrumental in guiding us with the long list of decisions we didn't even know we'd need to make. He's personable, charming, and felt like an instant friend. We told him what we envisioned and he gave us some great color suggestions and options to help narrow down the seemingly endless and overwhelming colors that exist. Perhaps we were a bit naïve, this being our first home purchase and first time being involved in a home renovation, but it is no simple feat! We'd imagined a couple guys with their paint cans and a couple brushes, but it is a whole entire operation. I mean, it's intense. They immediately got to work with ladders going up, shutters coming down, drilling and hammering and sanding OH MY! Once things got started, it became clear that this old house would be no simple project. To top it off, many of the doors and windows needed restoration, which they tackled with their handy dandy arsenal of tools, knowledge, and experience. The guys were prompt, courteous, and worked tirelessly each day. You could tell they have a great rapport with one another. Eduardo would stop by a couple times a day to check in on things, and chat with us about where we were in the process and what decisions needed to be made. I reluctantly admit that we are indecisive by nature and we changed our minds a couple times throughout the journey, but they were patient, understanding, and worked with us through our madness. Who knew something as seemingly mundane as choosing colors could actually be so emotionally taxing? Yall, it's heavy! Eduardo made some bold suggestions that we initially met with apprehension, but we ultimately ended up going with his recommendations. We should have trusted his judgement to begin with! No regrets! Now that the job is complete, we are absolutely thrilled with the results. Our house looks revitalized. This paint job feels like a refreshing breath of fresh air. I love every decision, every detail, the gorgeous application. I'd hug it if I could. He will be the only person we call for any future paint job and without hesitation, absolutely recommend him for any of your painting needs.

Wow, I cannot rave enough about Scott Quittner and his tile work. He came highly recommended by…read moreTileCo, THE place in town for quality tile. Seems like everybody goes there. TileCo referred a few others and I asked everyone to come out and bid on a small bathroom remodel. All 3 bids were within 10% or so of each other, and all 4 companies had a good reputations. I chose Scott and T2 Tile Techniques because he seemed like he really wanted to get it done on my schedule and not just his. I know he moved somethings around to make it work and I deeply appreciated that. There was just something about him that was polite, grounded, trustworthy and no-nonsense. Not having much else to tip my decision other than the schedule and his personality (I'm sure the other companies probably would have done nice work too), I chose Scott. What I appreciated about him was that he ended up acting like the contractor on the job, something I did NOT want to do. There was electrical work, he knew my plumber, and everything flowed pretty well. Whenever there was a snag, or a miscommunication, he never blamed me and just got it done. As it turned out the floor tile was much harder to place because he had to level the floor and he never charged me more than the quote to do so. The job was finished ahead of schedule! As others might know, as he worked, I found other things I wanted to add, or change and each time, he just said, "Okay, that will be an extra $60," or something like that. And he always stuck to it. As I paid the invoices there were no surprises, everything was as he said it would be. I even added on a couple things in the room (like a light, computer network cable, door stop...) that had nothing to do with the job and each time he just gave me a quote for the extra work and stuck to it exactly. That was pretty cool. And the quality of the work? Absolutely AMAZING. Truly beautiful tile, grout work, tub fixtures, custom designed backsplash and everything was just gorgeous. Seriously. I LOVE my new bathroom. I have never loved a bathroom before, but I love my new bathroom and I would work with Scott again in a heartbeat. Solid, hardworking, honest, patient, and no-nonsense integrity. His crew was equally outstanding! Super nice, easy to be around and superb workmanship. Unsurprisingly unbelievable painters, drywallers, and tilers. If I say more, it will sound fake. Truly great work. Thanks, Scott!

Remodeling and new home construction can be very stressful and anxiety inducing, however, our experiences with Campbell Construction have proven very different from the anticipated norm. Phil brings a proactive and forward-thinking perspective that allows one to sleep easy at night knowing that, not only will the finished product exceed your expectations, but there will be minimal surprises both physically and financially. Our experience, and that of our architect, is that contractors seldom build what is "drawn" and often compromise. Thankfully we have found that Phil often takes the plans and improves them due to his extensive experience and his creative approach combined with a keen eye for the finished aesthetics. Would we use Campbell Construction for another project - undoubtedly YES! We just wish we could persuade Phil that Seattle is where he should establish a second presence so that he could work on our Washington home.
