Featured Reviews for Design and Build Companies in El Cerrito, CA

California Construction Bay Area Inc.
Design and Build Companies in El Cerrito, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars16 July 2018
“We planned a big project at first, and then the budget changed, so our plans had to change. California Construction was understanding, responsive, and stayed on schedule for the revised remodel. Excellent work!”
SF Design Build
Design and Build Companies in El Cerrito, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars26 November 2012
“We recently completed our 3rd large scale project with SF Design Build .... first a major remodel of our condo in 2008.... then a major seismic upgrade for our entire building in 2010...and now a complete exterior painting and new deck construction and maintenance completions for the entire building (a three story structure in NOPA). Basically they went over this entire huge building tooth and nail fixing and updating every inch. Our 87 year old wood construction building is now in near perfect condition. We keep returning to Rudy, Jessica and the SFDB team for the simple reason that they are honest, professional, thorough, budget-wise and conscious and have excellent follow up. The quality of the work by Samuel, Hugo, Ceasar, Eric and the others is excellent. These guys are real craftsmen and it shows. What a pleasure to see their finished work! All of the workers are company employees and have been with SFDB for all the years we have used the company. No day hires! We bid this work, as we did our other projects, and SFDB once again came in competitive. (they were not the cheapest but also held an advantage over "just" painting contractors because as a general contractor they have their own scaffolding. the other painters bid the work then had an "add on" for scaffolding that in some cases could add $5k to the cost.) they completed the work on budget. No gimmicks, add ons etc. during the work they found that some planking on one side of the building had been repaired poorly many years ago and had to be replaced. this added about 3 days to the job with some cost increase but they showed how it was necesary. One of the best things about SFDB is that there are no surprises. They work entirely through the project with no gaps or no show days. they clean up EVERY DAY and leave the work site as accessible as possible, respecting the owners living space. I would highly recommend SF Design Build. Like the PGA ads on television ... "These Guys are Good!...."”
Frederick Custom Homes, Inc.
Design and Build Companies in El Cerrito, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 April 2014
“Frederick Construction is professional and offers high quality customer service. We are currently remodeling our whole house, and we appreciate their dedication to detail and honest feedback through the process. We are also converting an existing 4-car garage into a comfortable living space for an in-law suite. I highly recommend this company because they are experienced and knowledgable. Furthermore, they are reliable and easy to work with.”
building Lab, inc.
Design and Build Companies in El Cerrito, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars28 January 2013
“Buildind Lab provided both design and build services for a stand alone au-pair suite at our property. Stephen Shoup was personally involved through the effort. He and his team's commitment to quality, detail and excellence was indeed stellar. They understood us as clients and our needs and specific tastes. They truly listened and reacted with speed. They stuck to their original budget and timeline. Above everything else, their strive for perfection and desire to exceed expectations is indicative about the ethic and pride they bring to their work, day-in and day-out. In short it was an absolute pleasure to work with them and we would highly recommend them.”
True Home Builders

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars31 December 2020
“My husband and I chose True Home Builders to remodel our home and we couldn't be more satisfied with the entire experience. We worked with Ami and Michelle during the planning process and they really knew how to guide us on the right layout and design for our lifestyle and budget. From planning to execution we couldn't be happier with the results. The entire team were professional, efficient and went above and beyond to make us happy. We highly recommend using True Home Builders as your design and build partner. Thank you for our beautiful home!”
Canyon Design Build
Design and Build Companies in El Cerrito, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars26 November 2012
“I’ve been working with Canyon Design Build since 2010 to photograph the completion of their remodels, kitchens, baths and additions. When I arrive at the project site, it’s always clear that the homeowner is thrilled with the results and that they have a good relationship with the project manager. I look forward to including more Canyon Design Build projects in my portfolio.”
Hannah Construction Inc.
Design and Build Companies in El Cerrito, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars7 June 2023
“I received a recommendation for Brad Hannah in January 2020. 60 year plus friends in the construction field (who had moved out of the area) recommended Brad for a roof replacement and interior work on my 63 year old home. They had two words to describe Brad - "Good" and "Honest". Their opinion was seconded by my insurance adjuster. Not Brad's biggest job but he gave me wonderful advice and work. My house looked brand new when he finished. I decided to do some more work on the house earlier this year. Again, not a big job for Brad. Remodeled the mini master bath making the shower twice the size of the old, and new cabinet doors and drawers in the kitchen. Brad subbed the stone work out - quartz shower, vanity top and new quartz kitchen countertop. While the stone guy wasn't the most expensive, his work is outstanding. I LOVE MY NEW HOUSE. It does look brand new and I smile whenever I enter the bath or the kitchen. As I've said - I'm not Brad's biggest or even average spending customer. My jobs were small. BUT, the quality of his work shines through. I think you see how good someone is on the little jobs maybe a little clearer than on some bigger ones. If I spotted anything that I didn't like - Brad was out in a day to remedy it. He's not the fastest or least expensive - he's just the best.”
Creation 7
Design and Build Companies in El Cerrito, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars23 January 2017
“Creation 7 build the master addition on our house. It is generally understood that having major remodeling done on your house, can be a frustrating process. It's noisy, messy, and usually, goes over budget. I can honestly say that almost none of these were true for our experience with Creation 7. The men were so respectful of our space. They cleaned up at the end of the day - no mess was ever left. The construction generally stayed within budget. These guys were a pleasure to be around also. They were funny and nice, but also respectful of our need for privacy. Also our completed addition! It's so gorgeous! Everything is in perfect working order. Their eye for detail and overall craftsmanship is amazing. I really can't say enough how great our en suite master bedroom is. It has transformed our house from an old boring space into our dream house. I highly, highly recommend Creation 7!”
Via Builders, Inc.
Design and Build Companies in El Cerrito, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars2 June 2014
“Via Builders have built 2 homes for us. Our last home was a design/build with Via. We could not be happier with their work ethic, attention to detail and the over all attention given to us. They have put together a great team of professionals that love what they're doing and it shows in their finished product.”
Cottage ADU
Design and Build Companies in El Cerrito, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars26 April 2021
“This was our first construction project. Cottage really helps make the ADU process accessible, approachable, and less intimidating. It’s easy to trust the Cottage team - you can feel the level of integrity and honest and high quality of work. Cottage made it easy, and for a competitive price. Building an ADU is not cheap, just like building a house in the Bay Area is not cheap. For building a custom stick-built ADU, the price was great. They are all very hardworking and responsive. Construction can be nerve racking but Cottage was always very calm, professional, friendly, approachable, and kept us in the loop. They made us feel good every step of the way. It’s been a pleasure and fun working with Cottage! I consider my contacts for Cottage to be like friends...really high quality people. It’s a breath of fresh air to work with a firm like Cottage compared one considers traditional design or general contractor companies. Cottage uses the latest technology and is just easy to talk to and work with - less intimidating than others we met with. They are very approachable, communicative and friendly.”

Design and Build Company FAQs
In short, a design and build company consists of all stages of the construction process, from design to build, in one place. A design-build firm works under one contract with the project owner to complete both design and build steps of the project.

They will take on the responsibility of planning the project, drawing up the designs, costing, sourcing the building materials and supplies, building the structure, installing any permanent features and possibly advising on the interior design of your home; all while consulting you every step of the way.
Speed and cost. Hiring a design & build company for your El Cerrito project means that the whole process from start to finish will be quicker, as all stages of the project will be handled by one company.
