    Sergio Alvarado, the owner of Tahoe homebuilder is a fantastic contractor and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Over the past 12 months Sergio and his crew has done a lot of very important remodeling in our Tahoe Donner home including the complete remodel of two bathrooms, the complete remodel of our entire main floor and kitchen including tiling, wood floors,  structural work, drywall, electricity plumbing, cabinet installation, baseboards installation and finishing. I've added a few photos and I wish I could add more but we are still finishing the work.  Here are specific qualities why I would recommend him strongly.  1) Reliability and commitment Sergio always returns calls and messages within the hour and always does what he has promised to do. He does not leave you hanging or guessing, as long as you have a direct and open communication with him.  If he committed to something, he did everything in his abilities, not counting his time, to deliver.  It occurred several times that what we had decided was longer or harder than anticipated and never once flinched. 2) Expertise He is very skilled and knowledgeable in all aspects of contracting, including structure, framing, plumbing, tiling, floors, drywall, electricity and choice of the right materials.  He has specialized crews for all these tasks and he directs them and controls their work very well.  He gives them good briefings and always checks upon their work. 3) Flexibility Although Sergio's firm does highly prestigious projects, such as the Tahoe Palisades, (https://palisadesatsquaw.com/traverse-wins-tahoe-quarterly-mountain-home-award/) he is able to take on smaller projects such as our home remodeling and he worked on our schedule. 4) Listening Unlike many other contractors or designers that tell you what they want, Sergio listened to us and tried his best to accommodate our needs.  When we did not know what we wanted, he came up with very creative and workable solutions in terms of design and materials, which he executed very well. 5) Overall behavior Sergio always stays calm and composed, he never rushed or pressured us ( nor did we have to pressure him) and he always maintains a good behavior with his crew, which is very important to us.

    I hired Sergio from Tahoe Home Builders to help me to rebuild my deck and anew studio entrance in Tahoe Vista, after it was damaged this past winter. I live and work in Southern California , so I needed to manage and track on this job from a distance, only having a couple of opportunities to come up and check in during the demolition and build process. I was extremely pleased that Tahoe Home Builders was able to design and produce a premium product without my full-time supervision. There were a couple of details that I wanted to change during the build, and Sergio and his crew were very understanding and flexible and made the changes within budget and on time!

John & Stephanie took me through the entire project with such professionalism & care, I feel truly lucky to have found them. I was going to do the roof & the deck but John told me that the roof didn't need to be completely re-done and only 1 of my 2 decks needed work. He could have just "sold" me the new roof & both decks but was honest in his evaluation of my property. His integrity is beyond reproach. I ended up replacing only my top deck and ended up doing 2 bathrooms instead (along with replacing the necessary tiles on my roof). Since I am in a HOA, John worked with the association to get the proper decking & color to comply with their guidelines. It was seamless. He replaced the top deck completely and secured everything on the 2nd deck. He made it safe & sound and good for years to come. I took 2 bathrooms down to the studs. Thank goodness I did since dry rot was found. John kept me up to date and let me know of any hiccups. As others have mentioned, he helped me with suggestions that ranged from where to look for tile, toilets, etc to helping me with suggestions for the bathrooms. He was patient when I would change my mind on things (i.e. I decided on one color for the bathrooms but it looked just awful once it was on the walls so I picked out a new color and they repainted them for me). The work of his team is extraordinary! I had wainscoting put on the walls - the tile "flows" and the gentleman who installed it is a true artist. They laid plastic on all the carpets to avoid dirt and grime to take care of the rest of the house. As I was doing this, unfortunately I had 2 floods due to the snow from this past season. He discovered it one morning and instantly went into action to drain the water from the house, find where it was coming from & got to work fixing the problem (draining the water, opening the walls, putting industrial fans in the rooms). They were both insurance issues and Holm stepped up and helped me with that too! Talking to the adjuster, getting me separate invoices for the work, etc. This unexpected fiasco could have been a nightmare!! But John came to my rescue and stepped up to help. It was completely unexpected and not in the scope of work that I had contracted with them but he had my back and I can't begin to tell you how much his efforts, help & kindness saved the day. They are busy! I did have to wait "my turn" and that took about 4 months but well worth the wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There is a reason they have a waiting list, their work is beyond reproach! They are up front with their pricing. Nothing is ambiguous - no hidden fees. They will bend over backwards to help their client. I feel so lucky to have come across them. I will definitely be using them again for any future projects. I can't thank John & Stephanie enough - incredible people, phenomenal work & an A+ company! Incline is lucky to have you guys.

    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.

We embarked on an extensive Kitchen/Laundry/5 bathroom remodel with Griggs and his team in 2015 into 2016. From start to finish, we received nothing but professionalism, skill and well thought-out advise. Aaron and his staff displayed a wealth of knowledge and we developed a great relationship with excellent communication. We believe each of his subs were the very best the region has to offer. Each with a strong attention to detail in their area of expertise. As a testament of our faith and trust in their work, we realized that we did not have to oversee their work on a daily/weekly and basis. We left the job in Aaron's capable hands halfway through the project and went back to the Bay Area. We visited and checked in regularly but had faith the job would be done to our expectations in our absence. At the end, we have no regrets in doing so. Now that the job is complete, we are thrilled with our new home. We also know that Griggs will stand by their work going forward. We are lucky to have found a Fine Home Builder with Integrity!
