I hired this company for multiple large home improvement projects: a new roof, all new windows, new lighting and to construct an ADU for us. None of the projects went well: they measured and ordered windows wrong and then yelled at me like it was my fault. They ordered the wrong roofing tiles and failed to review to work done at all. When we had problems from them not hooking the HVAX back correctly he was a nightmare to deal with. The owner admitted he knew nothing about roofs and couldn't look to see the problems reported to us by our HVAC person. He promised to pay the HVAC bill and when his roofer came out- he admitted the work wasn't done correctly and sent his own HVAC person out to properly connect everything. None of this would be so bad if the owner wasn't so nasty and defensive every time I talk to him or message him. He still, five months later has not paid our HVAC guy, as promised, did not return any of my phone calls or messages and was full of denial for why he should even pay the bill when questioned by my husband today. He tried to argue that since the roof didn't actually leak from the HVAC, not being connected properly that he shouldn't even have to pay for HIS person coming up to repair the roof that wasn't finished correctly. He has again, for the third or fourth time agreed to pay the bill from our HVAC guy who brought to our attention all of the problems left by his roofer that he and his roofer admitted we're wrong !! I really didn't wanna leave bad feedback for this company, but his behavior and his inability to pay his bills that could leave us with a contractors lien against the house is totally unacceptable . The lighting project did not go well either and on every project we had no call no-show and plenty of attitude whenever we questioned why. they promised repeatedly to stand by their work and included a one year warranty, but I don't feel that we should have to force them to keep to their own agreements and all of the unprofessional behavior, especially the yelling at me is also not acceptable. I would never hire this company again and frankly fear that I will end up having to sue them over other problems with work that they've done since he doesn't like to honor his word . If I discover he does actually pay our HVAC guy the $150 service bill then I will update my review. I feel my score was overly generous. they canceled out of building the ADU- the biggest and most project at all after e a month: we were told 6 weeks to move in and 4 weeks later he called saying that their quote (which was $10k higher than our next quote) didn't have any money for electric connection. Even worse was that on every project it seems they had no idea what they were doing. Case in point on the ADU they wanted me to contact PG&E and find out if they could connect to our electrical box or whether they needed an on street connection? They also asked me, remind you after signing contract to do the project, did I expect them to figure out if it was even possible to do the project? He yelled all of these things at me while he was backing out of the project and then tried to blame it on me being difficult to please at the end he refunded me my deposit and I hired the other contractor who did indeed finish the project for $10,000 less than his quote. read more

Schatz Construction is the way to go. I had a previous experience with a terrible contractor and they came in to re-do and fix everything appropriately and to my standards. We ended up having to go through a near total demo and remodel twice on our master bath. On top of everything we also had a major leak from rain and wind on the back wall of this bathroom. It's been a journey to say the least. Ryan was with us every step of the way to help us. I couldn't be happier with the end result thanks to Schatz Construction. Highly recommend! read more

My rental home needed about $100,000 worth of repairs after damage from the last winter storms. A giant oak fell and crushed a third of the house. To summarize my experience, I would say I am very satisfied with all that happened, and would rate 5/5 overall. It was finished on time and on budget. I actually had chosen someone else to do the repairs, but I am glad I changed my mind. It was a pleasure dealing with the people, particularly Ryan: excellent prompt communication, honest, and quality work. When I need further work, I will call on this company again. I have no financial interest in the company. Dr N read more

We have been trying to do crown molding after we installed ship-lap and after several wasted boards and wrong angles, I gave up. I contacted Schatz Construction and Ryan came and did an absolutely beautiful job!!! He was right on time, very personable, professional and he sure is talented. If you have anything you need to have done, do yourself a favor and call Schatz! Joe & Kathy read more

I reached out to Jeff after finding him online. Spoke to him on the phone, seemed very professional, slightly salesy, but as a fellow business-owner during a pandemic, I'm okay with that. We scheduled an appointment for him and his team to come on site to give us a quote on putting up some drywall in a warehouse I just leased. Several days later, I received a phone call from Jeff with his quote (nearly $40,000 to put up some drywall and paint). I asked him to send it to me in an email and that I would evaluate it against the other quotes I received and that we were still waiting for a few more. The next day he texted me, "My guys are waiting for me to give them the green light to start your warehouse. Can we get this job going?". I let Jeff know we found a significantly lower quote. He warned me that something is off and that I should scratch my head because something is missing. After several days, I let Jeff know that we decided to move forward with another company. Coincidentally that same day, the city receives a local "anonymous" tip that there may be a remodel going on without permits. Ironically, Jeff advised us multiple times that we wouldn't need permits for the type of work we were trying to do. Very petty move to do to a new business in a statewide lockdown. Jeff has shown his true colors and level of professionalism. Thanks and good luck, Jeff. read more

Schatz was a recommendation from a good friend of mine because I needed my kitchen remodeled. They came out to get measurements, told me they will email it to me in a few days. That was three weeks ago. After several calls and texts I was just informed BY TEXT that they took on big projects and wouldn't be able to work on my home or the estimate. (2 weeks ago I was told I'd have the estimate by next week) I find this not unprofessional but also disrespectful. I DO NOT recommend this company read more

Excellent customer service. Jeff was a huge help in dealing with my insurance agency and always kept me updated on the progress of my repairs. read more

I had an unusual attic project I wasn't sure would work, and before the job was even bid, Jeff spent hours researching possibilities. He was very respectful and straightforward as he discussed findings with me. It turns out we're unable to do the project at this time, but I would highly recommend working with Schatz Construction! read more

Schatz Construction Restoration was recommended to me by a trusted source and home builder when I called him to ask for a remodel referral. I had purchased a 1960's ranch style home that needed a FULL update. When referring Schatz, the source told me that with any construction, it's about reliability, and the finish work, and he said I wouldn't find anyone better than Schatz. On my first call to Ryan, I explained the scope of the job, and my timeline, and he said he had a reliable crew and group of subs, and didn't foresee any issues in completing the task in the condensed timeline I requested. I then met with Ryan Schatz, and Jeff Blote (Ryan's partner) and we walked the property and discussed the plan. Because I wanted the project finished on a tight timeline, and we were remodeling the entire 3 bedroom 3 &1/2 bath house, Schatz quoted us immediately on the demo so we could get started while we picked our finishes. I hired a design team Kathleen Jennison and Sandra Van Slack of KJT Design, and they were amazing in their presentations of finish items, and their layout suggestions. While we were picking finishes, Schatz Construction Restoration began their work, and it was a FLURRY of activity and this continued throughout the entire project. We were impressed at the amount of workers that showed up to the house on work days. All of them were professional, polite, and seemed happy to be there. Very friendly, very trustworthy. This seemed to trickle down from the ownership of this impressive Company. Ryan and Jeff were ALWAYS professional, and friendly, and patient, and polite. The finished product is truly unbelievable. From the crown molding to the flooring, the window trim, the wall finish, paint, closets, etc...pictures don't even do it justice. Great work aside, these 2 guys feel like family to us now. Our project lasted for approximately 5 months. After the initial demo, and structural work, we received a daily schedule of events with a move in date, and that schedule stuck! If you are considering using Schatz, you can feel free ask them for my contact info, and I will answer any questions you may have about their professionalism and workmanship. read more
