Califeia Design-Build has done a great job on two wonderful projects at our home. His attention to detail and craftsmanship separate him from other contractors. We will call him back in the future.

Since 2002 Califeia Design-Build has delivered to me well crafted carpentry work, reasonably priced, in a timely fashion for several projects ranging from cabin building to eaves repair. No matter how large or small the task, Jim's attention to detail is resolute.

Beyond our greatest expectations!! That’s what we experienced when Califeia Design - Build totally remodeled our master bath this winter. They took it down to the bare studs then designed and created a luxury bath with everything we wanted. Jim set a pace of excellence from our first meeting as he listened to us and made innovative suggestions. When he developed the final design, we were totally happy with it, and as the work progressed we were impressed with the quality standards he set for his staff and all of the subcontractors. We found Jim to be a contractor of perfection with an eye for detail and cost containment. When we show our friends the completed project, the comment is always, “WOW. This changes the entire look of the master suite.” We look forward to doing more projects with Califeia Design-Build.

Califeia Design-Build was able to reconstruct my two entry doors by eliminating rot problems and reframing on a solid base. Other contractors would have covered up the source of the problem by simply installing a new sill and frame, only for the problem to resurface.

Califeia Design-Build came into our home to resolve an emergency situation in our bathroom. He diagnosed the problem and resolved it quickly and perfectly for us and kept all charges under the original estimate he gave us.

“Califeia Design-Build brought a transformation to our upstairs attic space that we’d never have dreamed possible. We wanted a contemporary northwoods feel for our new master bedroom suite. Jim worked out the design and engineering that made it possible to vault the ceiling right to the peak of our little bungalow without compromising its structural integrity. It was Jim’s design finesse, craftsmanship and communication that won us over.”

“I appreciated how Jim listened to my wishes to keep my bathroom remodel in character with the rest of my Arts & Crafts Style home. He helped me create the period style bathroom I desired while providing me with some tasteful options…such as the black granite ledge around the perimeter. His attention to detail and quality throughout the project was impressive.”
