From beginning to end- he was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, hard-working, helpful, and friendly. We've since recommended him highly to many of our close friends, who've also been happy with his work and their experience. Not only does he do great work, he's been consistently available over the years to help us through a number of repairs and emergencies. He's also such a generous supporter of our local community. We can't say enough about Jared and his team, and will continue to use him for all our projects. A+ Neil and Amee Sawhney

Jared Lewis is the partner you want on your team…read more We were introduced to Jared when our Scotts Valley home was destroyed by a giant tree by a local real estate expert who is a staple in the community. From our first interaction - Jared was "people first". He cared about our family's needs, spent a great deal of time evaluating our complex options - and was the first to state when he felt something was beyond his scope, expertise, or bandwidth (spoiler alert: nothing is :) Though the entire process , Jared maintained his professional demeanor as our strategy shifted through various curveballs: changing market conditions, rebuilding vs selling, and working through various needs of our insurance provider. He also employs top-notch technology. As work commenced, I was able to stay on top of the day's activities through a digital log - complete with pictures, reports, and project details. The entire time I felt so "connected" to the build, and his team always delivered when they said they would. Finally, it always felt that Jared considers a long term view for his clients, I never felt pushed in any direction. He considers your success to be his success. Please consider Jared to your interview panel, he'll deservedly earn your business.

They worked long hours to put us out of our misery and leave our downstairs bedrooms and bathrooms looking (and smelling) like new . When it came time to fix our leaking roof terrace, I of course called Joe, and he did a great job. His prices are reasonable, and I intend to use him for all our future construction work. Hopefully it won't involve another sewage flood.

Joe is a life saver. We have called him in during two emergencies, and he has come through for us…read moreboth times. The first was to rescue us from a half-finished bathroom remodel where the original contractor abandoned the project half way through. We could find no other contractor that would touch the project, because you never know the quality of the work already done, and you are kind of assuming responsibility for it. Joe stepped in, fixed some things the previous contractor had screwed up, and finished the bathroom just in time for us to be able to celebrate Thanksgiving with the family visiting. The second time was similar. We had a water line break and it damaged the entire bathroom in the master bedroom. We were displaced from our bedroom and the house was hazardous. Joe was already booked with other projects, but was able to rearrange some of his staff and was able to start fixing the house that very day. Three weeks later, we had a beautiful bathroom. We hadn't anticipated doing another bathroom remodel, and certainly hadn't budgeted for it. Joe's price was very fair, considering the emergency nature of the project and the fact that he had to have people on overtime to help complete the job. I highly recommend JM Construction. They are life savers.

Amazing crew. They were great with on site adjustments and completed the work promptly.read more

This is the second time we've worked with Elite Construction, and once again, they exceeded all…read moreexpectations. We hired them to redesign and replace our crumbling back porch, and the results are wonderful--a graceful, functional, usable space, with craftsmanship and attention to detail second to none. Project Manager Dave Allami was a standout--his suggestions were thoughtful, his work meticulous, and he was incredibly accommodating throughout the process. When they removed the old porch, they uncovered serious structural issues with our home's foundation and support beams. Dave and the team didn't flinch. They pulled out all the stops to address the problems quickly and thoroughly. That part of our house is now the safest and most solid--it's truly impressive how seriously they took the issue and how fast they acted. What really touched us was how they treated our little 800-square-foot home like it was their own. It's just four little walls that hold our life, and they respected it like it was a mansion on a hill. That kind of care is rare. Highly, highly recommended.

We have a cottage on the property whose foundation is partially set into the hillside. There was…read morea French Drain behind the cottage that had failed, allowing water to seep into the crawlspace and create some mold issues. Adam came out, assessed the situation and came up with a plan that wouldn't drain our bank account. He and his crew dug a new French Drain, installed a water barrier on the concrete wall, then installed a 'catch basin' outside which captured the water from the French Drain to take it off the property via yet another drainage system. In addition, they installed a sump pump and drain under the cottage so that if any subsurface water rose up, it would be drained off as well. That was seven years ago and everything is still working as anticipated. Adam and his crew are amazing and their work ethic is among the best we've ever encountered. His attention to detail is second to none and we find ourselves recommending him and his crew to others all the time.

They installed a 40' retaining wall and put in an incredible and extensive drainage system that goes down a steep hillside for a long distance. They were friendly, efficient, hard working, explained any time we had questions and they cleaned up every day before they left. The finished job blends seamlessly into the existing landscape, almost as if it never happened. But we know how hard they worked and we are eternally grateful for their talent and abilities. So capable! Dahlen Structural is a treasure to our mountain area. They deliver a high quality end product and peace of mind that we never thought we'd have again.

From the walk through process, to the bidding process, to the signing...it was seamless. We have never worked with a builder like this. The entire process was super professional from beginning to end. The communication was top notch and every sub that came through was kind, polite, and did the job very well. It is rare to go through such a large remodel and to not have issues pop up....but we didn't have ONE. They showed up when they said they would, they got in touch with us immediately with any issues or questions, and things were resolved on the spot. Our designer, Cody, was fabulous. She "got" my vision from the very beginning. When she did her presentation to show us the colors and design she had come up with, it was as if she saw into my head....she's amazing. She nailed it. Our project manager, Brian, was fantastic...we don't have one complaint. And bonus...they told us approximately five months to do the remodel from beginning to end...and they finished two days before the five month mark. Unheard of in this industry. We will never use another builder, it will always be SCGB for us. We are absolutely thrilled with our remodel, and the quality of work....I cannot sing their praises highly enough. If you are looking for a builder...look no further. This is THE company you want.

Brandon called me back right away, did a thorough site visit and worked magic to get me on his schedule. Brandon, Orlando and the whole team started within weeks. Their communication and attention to detail was fantastic, and when they found additional things that required problem-solving, they brought them to my attention and included me in the decision-making. They kept their costs reasonable and worked within budget. Further, Brandon did most of the shopping for me on the materials and narrowed my choices via face time. Honestly, they saved me a ton of time, headaches and got the job done right! The bathroom and space for my daughter is now beautiful and I highly recommend them.

He was friendly, knowledgeable and gave us a very reasonable estimate. We knew the work would turn out great since we could literally stare at his past work. We went with him and were SO happy with the results! He had also suggested changing the archways on the porch giving it a cleaner more updated look. It all only took a few weeks and voila! The house looks awesome and we love knowing that it is so well protected on the exterior. Thanks again Gavin-you guys rock!!
