I have been dealing with Dana since an improptu meeting in Tahoe City 20 years ago when I bumped…read moreinto him at a gas station. I was riding my bike and saw that he had a trailer full of trash and was on his way to the dump. I asked him if he would consider swinging by my place and grabbing some piles of landscaping I was at a loss for how to remove. He graciously said sure and that has turned into 20 years of choosing Dana for everything from Tree Removal, Deck Replacement, Remodel Plans, and plain old good advice. I can't say enough great things about Dana's pride in the final product, his quick response to either answer the phone himself or get back to you immediately, and willingness to help whenever possible. We love our place at Tahoe and oh much of that love to Dana!

The deck itself turned out way better than we were hoping - it's clearly well-made (I might even say over-built which is comforting given recent snowfall levels) and it is just beautiful. The best part is I quickly realized that MHD can handle just about anything I need. Discovered a big needle buildup on the roof - Steve sent someone over with a ladder and leaf blower within a day. Now we've hired them to do all of the interior painting in our house! I've got a running punch list now of projects for Steve and the team. If you've got a project, big or small, chances are MHD will knock it out of the park for you.

Farshad visited our home to provide an estimate on some exterior work we need done. He was frank,…read moreand seemed disinterested, when we said we were seeking the best price & value for our work. He said his company is more expensive than others, and his staff speaks English. We asked for an estimate for some work, and advised we were going to get a few others. He said to show him the other estimates and then he would consider if he could beat their prices and do the work. He said his company is very busy, and selective about the jobs they choose. I think he was just looking for $$$. He never sent an estimate, and when I followed up with him about it, he said, "I thought you were going to send me the other estimates, so I could see if we could beat their price." I think he wasted our time, and felt we wasted his. I did not think this was good customer service at all. Their work may be great, but you cannot be so dismissive to potential customers.

Sergio and his team are absolutely the best to work with on your home revisions or new build out…read more Our house is an older home where nothing is inline (years of extreme snow) angles are funky and different on the house side to side, etc. They came in and built six new dormers (nine new windows) and replaced our roof adding insulation. They were extremely professional, courteous and helpful. We are full time residents, who were able to witness, first hand, the dedication they apply to always make sure everything is correct and their clients are happy. There is no on else I would work with one our next project.

Sergio and his team at Tahoe Home Builder are absolutely amazing. They deliver high quality results…read moreon schedule and at very competitive prices. It is hard to achieve all three in Tahoe. On our first project, they did some minor remodeling in our kitchen, and we were impressed with their attention to detail, quality, and integrity. On the second project we had THB construct a two-car garage with a second story. The neighbors and other contractors in the neighborhood were impressed by their progress and quality. Sergio and his team worked diligently to complete the addition on schedule. He had to deal with Tahoe weather, a tight schedule and Tahoe challenges. Throughout the project, Sergio was responsive and communicated clearly. He was very easy to work with, and he was highly skilled at working with the third parties. He kept the project moving forward with cost effective solutions when we faced challenges. He also has an excellent reputation with the planning department and inspectors. Upon receiving our project's final inspection, the building department commented they had never seen a project completed this quickly in the Tahoe Basin. We can't say enough about Sergio and his team. They are very professional, high-quality builders, and they deliver on time and on budget. They are a pleasure to work with. We will work with Tahoe Home Builder on future projects.

We just completed a full (down to the studs) remodel of our home in Carnelian Bay with Alpine…read moreBuilding Co. Rob (the owner), who is a 3rd generation contractor, met us promptly after our initial inquiry. Not only was his project plan comprehensive and pricing competitive but we just got a really good "member of the family" vibe from him. It's such a leap of faith to trust someone with an asset like a house but we are so glad we took that leap with Rob. The project included flooring, every inch of electrical, modified interior framing, insulation, complete kitchen, complete master bath reconfiguration, half bath refresh, sheet rock, trim, painting and the occasional psychotherapy session when we encountered a few surprises along the way. Rob was patient, kind, thorough and had a crazy eye for detail. One of the things that really set him apart from other general contractors we've worked with in the past is the quality of subcontractors (electrical, plumbing, tile, etc) and how closely he manages those critical resources. If he says countertops are going in on a Thursday, they are going in on a Thursday. On one hand, the thought of going through another remodel gives me PTSD since I'm ready to just enjoy our home without making a dozen decisions per day for several months. But on the other hand, we are going to miss seeing him so often and will make him our first (and ONLY) call when it's time for the next project.

After owning my home in Tahoe for 25 years, it was in need of some serious TLC. What started as a…read moreplumbing fix for a leak in my upstairs bathroom that affected my downstairs bathroom quickly turned into a full home renovation. Since I never really liked either bathroom, I decided to redo them--and, well, one thing led to another! As I looked around, I realized how much of my house was showing its age. Eventually, I ended up gutting almost the entire house and updating everything. I had heard horror stories about contractors in Tahoe, but after meeting Rob from Alpine Builders, I knew I was in good hands. He immediately understood my vision and offered thoughtful suggestions without ever making me feel pressured to spend more. Rob was upfront, transparent, and genuinely helpful throughout the entire process. He passed along contractor discounts, directed me to the right places to source materials, and managed everything seamlessly. The Transformation: Since I live and work in Los Gatos (about four hours away), I couldn't be on-site often, which meant I needed a contractor I could trust to handle everything. Rob and his team took care of: New paint, inside and out New flooring throughout the entire house (goodbye, carpet!) Complete downstairs bathroom remodel (custom-built shower, new vanity, tile, toilet, lighting, fans) Complete upstairs bathroom remodel (custom-built shower, new vanity, tile, toilet, lighting, fans, and plumbing fixes) Brand-new kitchen (custom cabinetry, an island that didn't exist before, new appliances, lighting, and plumbing) Installed new blinds that I had purchased Upgraded water pressure Upgraded electrical outlets throughout the house What Stood Out About Rob & His Team: Attention to detail and craftsmanship - Everything they touched was done beautifully, and Rob has an excellent eye for quality. He would spot minor issues (paint chips, overspray, etc.) before I even noticed and ensure they were fixed. Problem-solving & creativity - My house had some design challenges: a weird angled ceiling in the upstairs bathroom, a tiny kitchen, and some funky light fixtures. Rob worked patiently and creatively to make the best use of my space. Communication & updates - Since I couldn't always be on-site, Rob sent updates, pictures, and confirmations along the way to make sure he was executing exactly what I wanted. Professional & clean crew - His crews kept the worksite tidy, which I really appreciated. Goes above and beyond - He even worked to get one room finished early so I'd have a place to stay if I came up while the rest of the house was under construction. Things to Keep in Mind (True for Any Contractor): Some things go fast (demo, painting, etc.), while others take longer, depending on trades like plumbing and electrical. Delays happen due to material availability and scheduling different crews. The process has natural lulls - Some weeks, there was a lot happening at once, and other times things stalled a bit, partly because I was busy with work and kids and couldn't always stay on top of it. Rob was always responsive and transparent, keeping me in the loop at every step. Final Verdict: I highly recommend Alpine Builders if you're looking for a contractor in Tahoe. My house has been completely transformed, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. If you're hesitant about a renovation--especially a big one--Rob will make the process manageable and deliver high-quality work you can trust. Feels like part of the family now and someone I can call on for other projects in the future.
