Personally, I would not trust just any contractor, it has to be word of mouth... and here is…read moremine... Matt Bailey completed painting our historic two-story Victorian near the Panhandle in San Francisco. He and his team did a wonderful job. I am writing this a couple of months after the project and I could not be more pleased with the work, the cost and the ease of working with Matt. Our building is pretty large with some sides that include a light well and only accessible via neighbors. Matt specked everything, used excellent quality paint, and here is where this outfit is always going to be a better choice than other painters. His guys are also carpenters and good ones. If you own an older home or a Victorian and you need to have it painted (every 7-10 years), especially if it is 2 or more stories and you just can't see what condition every window sill or cornice is, you need a trustworthy and competent contractor to call out any issues to you and address it. Issues are more or less going to be dry rot. We had some issues, not extensive but enough, and I feel grateful that Matt could address it and make the best recommendation. If we had hired just painters, they would probably not have said anything or just told us to get a contractor to look at it. What a huge pain and expense that would have been. We also needed some panels changed out on our staircase and his team did a beautiful job matching wood cuts, paint. They do very clean work. Their work is very nice quality, thoughtful, practical, and thorough. They work quietly, are polite, trustworthy and the best part for me, a cost-sensitive owner, is that Matt will inform you in advance of any concerns, send you photos, talk to you in person (or phone) about it so you can decide. It build trust. Mat Bailey is honest, friendly, professional and very easy to talk to. He also does remodels and pretty much everything in the interior. I would have no hesitation recommending Matt Bailey for any work. By the way, your home or income property is a major investment, don't skimp on the paint, its an incredibly stupid an irresponsible thing to do. The dry rot alone will cost you thousands if you don't take care. Don't screw around! Your time and peace of mind are too valuable. If you hire MBC, you are going to find that you are in control of what you want to do with reasonable recommendations along the way. There are so many incompetent, expensive an flaky contractors out there (I call that a 'nightmare'). If you care about your investment/home and want someone easy to work with and talk to, call Matt. You'll see for yourself. He and his team work very hard and care about the client and do excellent work. Thanks to Matt and crew. I'm so grateful that the project went so smoothly.

I can say that Matt Bailey and his team were very professional, reliable, clean, and finished the…read morework that they promised both on time and with quality work. Matt is not the least expensive contractor out there but he is really good. You get what you pay for. I mention that because often times, people want good work but don't take into account that the cost also reflects the fact that people like Matt are licensed, bonded, handle all the logistics, and back up their work. There is a peace of mind that comes with that. That is why I am taking the time to write this review because I feel fortunate to have been referred to Matt from my neighbor. Matt came through and completed the work exactly as we wanted. Matt oversees everything, he is on-site as needed, he personally manages and inspects and oversees all work, he listens to you, he keeps you informed, and he keeps his word. He gave us options each step of the way along with his recommendations. For example, do you want this paint or that one etc. I also trusted him with my neighbor's keys b/c he needed to enter there in order to set up scaffolding. I had no concerns about Matt's team having access. As my neighbor reported, they were quiet, clean and professional which gave me peace of mind since I like good neighbors. After personally meeting with Matt onsite, we felt that we would not only get good work but that we would not be over billed. Our job was somewhat extensive in that he repaired lots of dry rot, leaking and resealing areas in a two-story Victorian which required scaffolding for the work. Once again, I think there is peace of mind that comes from working with a good, honest and hardworking contractor which Matt is. We are so happy to have been referred to Matt. I highly recommend Matt Bailey Construction. I think Matt and his employees are trustworthy, talented and reliable. He also happens to be a pleasant and personable person which makes it easier to communicate with regarding questions, concerns and the scope of the work. I genuinely felt that Matt worked hard to accommodate our budget while also explaining to us what would be important to replace/repair in order to ensure no future leaking or damage to the building. Again it comes down to trust. I just feel so appreciative of his good work. Thank you Matt for taking such good care of our home and making sure that it is protected for years to come.

When we were re-doing our roof, a different contractor made a mess of the job, and Art and his team helped us clean up and get our project back on track. If you're considering any sort of kitchen or bath remodel, I'd recommend meeting with Art to get an estimate.

Art is an expert - an exceptional and determined problem solver. For instance, he consistently addressed and resolved unusual, unforeseen issues that inevitably arose when opening up our 100-year-old house. He's a strong collaborator and he takes the time to explain. And he's just a great person.

Tommy had a great crew working on our house and he checked in every morning and often every afternoon to make sure the project was progressing as expected and that the quality was high. On one occasion there was a small issue that came up due to a miscommunication and Tommy took care of it in a most professional manner. I highly recommend TNC Construction. We are pleased with the final product and will definitely look to use them again in the future.

Gary's drywall work seems solid, and his suggestion that we add more outlets while we had the walls open was great. In 5 working days, he only arrived as schedule twice, texting me in the morning to change his mind about the other 3 days. He left the room half-painted with a partially disassembled and broken closet door frame. He wanted more money to finish the painting but never provided an estimate for that, either. He also left a trash bag as big as my garbage bin that will take several weeks to throw out with my usual trash. After he saw my poor review, he reiterated that he didn't think he was obligated to finish the painting, but offered to anyway. This was the 4th time he said he'd paint it. By then I had lost faith in Gary, and was working with another painter.

They were all friendly, always on time, communicated well and all pricing discussion was clear and upfront. Can't recommend them highly enough.

They recently reconstructed the front…read moreexterior stairs of my older home with brick and a stucco finish, and the entire experience was outstanding from start to finish. A few key reasons why Damian and his team stand out: Communication: Damian is incredibly responsive via email, phone, and text. He always kept me in the loop, so I knew who would be at my house when and what they would be doing. Honesty & Integrity: When I asked for guidance, Damian gave honest, reasonable advice based on what was genuinely best for my home. There was zero upselling. In fact, he and his workers regularly went above and beyond, addressing small changes quickly without any nickel-and-diming. Ultimate Professionalism: Having major construction right at your front door can be highly disruptive, but the team made it incredibly easy and stress-free. The job site was always clean and organized. Everyone on site was friendly, polite, and deeply respectful of me, my home, and my neighbors. I never ever felt like I needed to be on alert or micromanage the project to ensure things went right. Expert Problem Solving: Because I have an older home, we predictably hit a few dry rot surprises. Damian immediately flagged what they discovered, how they would proceed, and how it would impact the timeline. He also navigated the city codes and inspection process flawlessly with zero issues. If you want beautiful craftsmanship paired with a stress-free, transparent process, do yourself a favor and hire Damian.
