Strong Builders completed a 500 square foot addition to our house back in March, and we can honestly say we have never been so happy to "Stay at Home." Firstly, Craig and Tim were both great to work with. I felt comfortable with both of them from the start. I am a meticulous DIYer, and have high expectations for the work on my house. I also wanted to do some pieces of the projects myself to save some money. They worked around my schedule, and we were able to do everything we wanted. We asked to have regular meetings to connect about plans and progress and to go over any work. Whenever there was something we wanted fixed, they were quick to take action and made things right. They were also always happy to take a call or answer a text, and they kept us in the loop every step of the way. Because I'm used to doing it all myself, and they were usually working while I was away, this really helped me to feel a part of what was going on! Not only was the quote we received from Strong Builders VERY competitive, they stayed on budget! Any increases were due to choices we made along the way and were always talked about in advance. We knew just what to expect and there were no surprises at the end. The whole team was friendly and polite. My wife always felt safe at home while they were there, and I appreciated what a clean job site they kept. I was also impressed with some of their creative solutions to challenges in the project. We highly recommend requesting George for any tile project you might have. He worked with precision and always checked to make sure we were satisfied. We were annoyingly particular and he happily met our OCD-like expectations! Donado (sp?) was their jack-of-all-trades and around all the time. Everyone was really pleasant and many felt like friends by the end of things! The whole thing did take longer than we expected, however, all along the way we told the fellas that we didn't mind wait, as long as things were done well! But we feel that it's worth mentioning for full disclosure. We would absolutely recommend you give Strong Builders a call for your next project! read more

I wanted to give a shout out to Strongbuilders Inc. After a pipe burst underneath my house I had to call a plumber. The quote for repair was above market price. I then called STRONG BUILDERS and they were there for me in a matter of hours. Price was Very reasonable . They replaced all my piping and got my Hot water back on and the flow of water throughout my house has never been better! Thank you Craig, Donato, Tim, Kelly . I want to say this company when ever they came in to do work , even on the outside , they always cleaned up after themselves. I would highly recommend using Strong Builders for any of your home remodeling and repairs. read more

We contracted Strong Builders to build a pergola in our backyard over our patio. Tim came out on the first day with his team, Don & Luis, He was on time & very professional. He explained how they were going to build it & where the post were going to go & addressed our concern about needing the door on our water heater closet to be able to open. The team worked together fast & efficiently and went above and beyond to get the job done right. read more

A long overdue review but nonetheless it is here. We have a 3 story home and hired Craig and his team to build an additional 2 floor bedroom and incorporated the garage workshop into the main home and added additional windows to our living room. Pros: - You get what you ask for. Everything turned out the way we discussed prior to construction - Crew was always on time - Crew was respectful to our family (we lived throughout the construction) - They kept mess to a minimum as best as possible - Some members were very skilled and perfectionist at their work (tiling - the British guy was very good, a perfectionist in his work) - Accommodating to change - They work with you to find a solution as unexpected problem arises Cons: - Like most project, the timeline never matches what you have in mind, it took a little longer than expected but that's normal so make sure you have some cushion - Like said, some members were more skilled than others and it shows in their work - You do need to look at the work at days end to make sure it is exactly what you wanted otherwise you need to communicate the corrections immediately before permanent work is done Tim was the leading man on site most of the time and he is a sweetheart to communicate with. They kept me updated throughout the process. I really love the way my home turned out and would recommend them for your remodel. They do not skim on quality or labor so you will not be disappointed. read more

My post was mysteriously deleted or hidden, so here it is again. I will update my review as I report to other agencies and our progress. I was going to hold off from writing this review about Strong Builders depending on the smoothness of the outcome. But since Craig has decided to threaten my family with a second Invalid lien, I thought this would be the right time. Our project began back in April of 2019. A 5 month completion time was agreed upon via text, email and verbal and we are approaching the 10th month with Craig constantly delaying our project. The project manager assured on 1/24/20, that their HVAC guy would return to address 2 errors on the unit Strong Builders puts hands on. This unit was part of our home. Craig charged us to bring it up to speed. It is not. It worked fine prior to whatever work was done on it. It now shuts off every 15 or so without notice. The master bath vent is leaking and baseboards are dinged up and damaged. Craig is not your friend. He will drown you with "change orders" and empty promises throughout your project. He is only on site to accept payment and has zero knowledge of what happens at your house. It has been 5 months since Craig has visited our project and still has zero knowledge of the work. He goes based off second hand information from his project manager who pops in once during the day and disappears the rest of the day although there are only 2 projects going on at Stong Builders. Where does he go? Shouldn't he be supervising your project? Isn't that what one pays for? After passing final inspection on the 5th try, Craig is unwilling to credit us the allowances we did not use. Per his Project Manger Tim we would be credited at final payment. Obviously, their word means nothing. Let's start from the beginning 1. He attempted to pocket our $9500 waste disposal fee. He filled the form under his name and tried to dissuade us by telling us that it's difficult to get your money back. Once his name was changed to ours and he provided us the disposal receipts, we had our deposit refund within 7 days of turning it into the city. 2. Reused our beams from our demoed addition and then lied to us that they were trashed. I took pictures of my attic and discovered 3 of my 4 beams in the framing of my home. Prior to demo, I specifically told him to set them aside for a project I had in mind in the future. The 4th beam was straight stolen by Strong Builders as it went missing all together. 3. Contract states level 3 smooth finish. We counted 2. Subcontractor claims 5 coats were applied, project manager assured us 4. Which one is it? 4. Damaged our new doors and windows and claimed they came that way. 5. Will allow strangers to walk through your home in an attempt to get work at your expense. 6. Will threaten you with a invalid mechanics lien if he doesn't get his way. We found out about the invalid mechanics lien when I went to the court and showed them the contract and pictures of uncompleted bathrooms. 7. Will out source his workers to other states and locations and claim that there are several men at your job site everyday when there is not. 8. Lied about gas test being signed off by city inspectors when it wasn't. 9. Make sure you are present at every inspection. 10. Hire a private home inspector to thoroughly check that your home is being constructed to code. We hired a private inspector twice and he uncovered several dozen areas where strong builders had put hands and we were shocked at what the inspector uncovered in his report. 11. Project manager was told that circuit breakers needed to be installed at main panel on 12/13 but orders them on 19th and further delaying our project. 11. Both his project manager and never on site. 12. Through a tantrum in front of my wife and I because he claimed he was going to lose money if he had to do a Venetian finish on our home, which was in the contract. 13. Drops "F" bombs during phone conversations if you tell him to vacate the home for 2 weeks so that you're floor guy can install flooring. ***READ YOUR CONTRACT WITH CRAIG** Do not sign it if he includes a mechanics lien. If he wants the job that much, he won't include it. That's his way of threatening you if you question his work. He will not hesitate to put a lien on your home even though you are current on you're payments. Insert a date of completion with $100-$200 deducted for everyday he goes over the expected completion date. Get several quotes. Get someone that knows how to reads your plans. Be suspicious of his notes at the bottom of the contract. If their are several, then that means he knows the overall work on the project and is covering himself from doing that work. I strongly suggest that if you are planning construction, to read this link and familiarize yourself with the California State Licensing Boards information on hiring contractors. http://www.cslb.ca.gov/About_Us/Library/Guides_And_Publications/ read more

This person is pretending to be a pro but in fact he is only a middlemen who is bringing others to the job site without paying attention to any details. He contacted us via Thumbtack posing himself as a customer, while in fact he was lookng for a sub (!) , pros don't work with subs from the internet referral sites because its unsafe. Since we refuse to work with unqualified pros we refused, but he continued to pose as a client on Thumbtack and writing reviews as a client. Beware! read more

I recently just got an ADU of 2 bedrooms & 1 bath done. I decided to go with Strong Builders Inc. and I couldn't be happier with the results. Aside from the professionalism this company carries, Craig was able to answer my questions and even provided different options for my ADU. He was very responsive and straight forward when it came to any issues that came up. I am extremely happy with the overall service and how my ADU turned out. I definitely would recommend this company to anyone who is looking for quality and a knowledgeable team. read more

+Our realtor Sandra Argumedo referred Strong Builders Inc (Craig Lloyd) to have some work completed to resolve rain water drainage problems, inside wood work, painting and dry wall repair. Craig's team (Jose and Brandon) were amazing. I am not just talking about professional, I mean down right detailed and customer service oriented. Every job was competed to my specifications. They repaired our original 1944 oak floors. They are exact in what they do! Give them the job, tell them what you need done and the rest is history! You will be a happy camper! I will be hiring them again when the need arises. Thanks! read more

I was referred to Craig at Strong Builders by a real estate agent. After extensive vetting other contractors. Craig and his company impressed me the most. They showed up to our appointment early to take measurements, brought pictures of other projects that they have been completed. After hiring Strong Builders, they estimated 6 weeks to remodel our kitchen, and was HAPPILY surprised that they finished in 3 weeks!! You have no idea how esctatic we were to have our beautiful kitchen finished and no longer had to eat out. Also, we were impressed how Strong Builders cleaned up every day before they left for the day, Craig was in constant communication after every phase. It was nice to come home and not see a pile of mess on a regular basis. If you ever need any type of remodel/ demo....search NO more. Strong Builders is the only contractor is So Cal that my wife and I recommend. :) read more

We were set up with Craig and Strong Builders by our landscaper. Couldn't be any happier. From day 1 Craig was constantly in touch with us. He came out to make measurements and always asked us what we wanted. You'd be surprised at the guys who come out and don't care for your, the homeowner, two cents. Even after a long day driving back and forth to talk to city hall, Craig still dropped by our house to let us know what was going on. Anyways, our existing concrete and patio cover were taken down in an expedient manner and the concrete was poured as soon as the inspector signed off on the footings. With Craig having job sites all over the place, James kept an eye out on the project; all the guys did a phenomenal job and are super down to earth to talk to. Always helpful. The patio cover was put up without any problems and it looks great. What makes Strong Builders special is that they do the little things - they took in our trash cans while I was at work and always made sure our backyard was spotless after each day. Craig and James - you guys run a great company. Keep up the great work! Thank you for everything read more

I have worked with Craig 4 years ago. His crew built a 16x20 playroom area in my backyard. I could not believe there were no hick-ups or glitches during the addition process and the inspector signed off the final with no hard time to me. They have great customer service, professional crew and humble owner of the business. read more

We have been renovating our house for so many years (one part at a time), so I have a fair share experience with good contractors and not so good ones (to put it nicely). Well, we are on the last leg of our home improvement and this time I turn to Yelp to find a reliable contractor that will do a great job transforming the front of our house from nightmare to something more pleasant to look at. That is how I found Strong Builders Inc. They have stellar reviews so I called and I'm glad I did. Craig Lloyd and his team are exceptional. I showed Craig an image of how I wanted my house to look like. Him and his team didn't disappoint. (See photos) I'm beyond happy with the workmanship, quality, price, time line and costumer service they have provided. I'm definitely going to refer them to anyone I know who needs to revamp their abode. Thanks Strong Builders Inc, you definitely deserve outstanding reviews! read more

Sorely disappointed with this company. Was supposed to complete a full remodel on family home within budget. Made a detail list of all that would include. Family started process paying for drawings permits and made arrangements to move all things out of home to storage so company could begin. Craig came by and pulled out literally a week before project was supposed to begin. Only stated that he would lose money on the project. Should have been a man of his word and delivered on all the promises he made. Now my family is out thousands of dollars. Tried to find another contractor to complete project and was not able to. Don't make the same mistake. We had all this in writing and still he walked away. Find a trustworthy company that follow through on the promises they make. read more

I just wanted to say what a great experience I had with Strong Builders. They helped me with everything I needed and working with their customer service was fast and efficient.

I had a terrible plumbing problem, outside pipe burst, (we could hardly use the toilet), during the New Year's holiday week-end, while out of town guests were visiting! Frantic, I called a recommended plumber, Robert Perkins, who promptly responded to my call, provided an estimate and replaced the piping immediately. The work was completed in 2 days even though they had to dig up the front yard and replace some plumbing under the house. The team was extremely professional, polite, courteous and did an excellent job. Robert explained what the plumbing problem was, what was needed to remedy the problem and offered to start on it right away (the same day). I was extremely pleased with the service and pricing. I would recommend his plumbing service to everyone. read more

Referred to this company from a co-worker. While me, and my wife were very interesting in increasing value to our rental property through a re-hab, we were unsure as to how to maximize our gains for the lowest cost, and least amount of change. We were helped by project manager Steve Johnson. Mr. Johnson was not only informative and professional, but extreamly creative! He gave some great ideas to opening up areas we never thought of, designing tips, the whole 9 yards. Our place turned out beautiful, and the cost was very reasonable! That man is an asset!! read more
