  Bayani Building & Restoration

  Joe Bayani, the general contractor with Bayani Building and Restoration did such an outstanding job on building our dream home. We recently moved into our home and couldn't be more pleased with how it turned out. From start to finish Joe and his crew acted with the utmost professionalism and were extremely knowledgeable in all phases of the project. Joe really is an expert in the area of construction with over 20 years of experience. His work on the job definitely demonstrated this.
  He and his crew went above and beyond and were on call whenever we had questions or concerns, or if anything came up during the process. As with most construction projects, we came across many hurdles. Joe came up with solutions to overcome these hurdles that were creative and cost efficient. Without his ability to problem solve, our project would have far exceeded our budget and we may not have been able to complete construction. We were fortunate to have Joe as our general contractor on the job. In addition to the professionalism and expertise that Joe brings to the table, he also has fantastic relationships with the County, the fire departments and SDGand E. Joe also has great subcontractor references who do amazing work and for very competitive rates.
  If we had to do this all over again, we would without a doubt hire Joe Bayani. In fact, any construction projects we have in the future will most definitely include us hiring Joe Bayani. If you have a construction project in your future, we highly recommend that you hire Joe Bayani and his crew.

  Sherman Co

  After a crooked contractor completely fouled up the reconstruction of a large2nd story balcony by, among other things, mounting posts for the surround rail system all wrong (at extreme angles to one another) and then absconding with $2+k of my money leaving me "hanging" with an unfinished project, I was desperate. Saw an ad in the local paper for Sherman Co. and called. Owner Barry Sherman. After hearing the tale of woe of a lady in distress, came that same day to look over the situation. He said he could fix and finish the balcony (was not overwhelmed by the challenge), and fit me in to begin the next day, which he did. Barry and his son, Gray, were not only competent but very skilled in all aspects of the building trades. They made the process as painless as possible by being punctual, organized (arriving with all the proper tools and materials to do the day's task), quiet and mannerly, efficient in division of labor and teamwork, neat and careful as they worked, and conscientious about cleanup when they finished both at end of day and end of job. Sherman Co. exhibited a work ethic and pride in their craft seldom found anymore. It took talent to rectify and complete my project and entailed figuring out and altering the design, extreme precision in execution and great attention to detail! In under 2 days the job was completed and the result was better than I ever imagined it could be! As I am a retired Interior Designer with more than 25 years of experience working with the trades, I feel qualified to evaluate and rate contractors. Plus, soon after Sherman Co. finished my small project, on my recommendation a friend hired them for a major remodel that entailed converting an upstairs bedroom into an "en suite" bathroom --- a very tricky redesign of the floor-plan that involved knocking out walls, cutting through a closet, rerouting hall etc. I ended up being involved from start to finish during about a 6 week period this summer and observed every stage. They did it all and did it well from the planning with her (no Architect) to the demo, plumbing, electrical, framing, dry-walling, texture coating, waterproofing, tiling, flooring, finished carpentry and painting. They also looked out for my friend's "bottom-line" as with their forethought of "re-purposing" materials that other contractors would have tossed in a dumpster, there was considerable savings to her. There was also an unusual circumstance with which the Shermans coped. Due to a family emergency, my friend had to be out of town for a month during the project! Thus, she appreciated not only how they continued without her but also how they prevailed when "unforeseen challenges" arose. During this time they accommodated her by communicating via long distance phone and by emailing photos as the work progressed. She was thrilled with her new bathroom and continues to comment on the fine quality of the work. I would recommend Sherman Co. wholeheartedly for any project large or small! I have taken the time and energy to write this lengthy review not only because I believe they are deserving of your patronage, but also because there are so many charlatans and con artists in the building trades (even I wasn't immune to getting ripped off) --- Maybe this will prevent someone else from having an awful experience like I did! :-)

  Mission Iron Shop

  The installation was done according to the schedule I was given, and the workmanship is beautiful.  I got estimates from two other companies and am very happy that I chose Mission Iron.
