Balducci Builders

Balducci provided high quality carpentry and stair railing installation, he was knowledgeable and responsive. We will definitely hire him again.

The electrical company left a hole where the porch light was. He removed the damaged siding and replaced and painted it.

Balducci is a fine carpenter who did a fantastic job on building new wooden stairs in my light well. The price was affordable and the craftsmanship was excellent.

Very professional

Repair work is ok. Go over his proposal very careful and double check on site with him. Not quite on time to start work.

Awesome, great communication and great work

Make sure to get permits if you want to avoid fines from the city. Oakland requires permits for just about all exterior work and Mr Balducci did not notify me of this. The city was called and I have been fined. Most importantly the contract was signed first week of December 2020 and I still have no stairs!!! Talk about a huge liability for a rental unit plus I am unable to refinance to a new lower rate as a result I am loosing tens of thousands of dollers!!! Paid $2500 for drawings from an architect and for Balducci to get permits. After 5 months of inaction I was forced to apply for permits myself on April 12th 2021. After a month having followed instructions from the kind inspector Mr Brown I am 9/10 through the process in a month just pending an engineering review now. I sincerely hope Mr Balducci has better building skills than he has permit application skills. I am an animal lover and he has the sweetest dogs that need his support for kibble. So I am hoping to improve his rating once work is completed because his bid is more reasonable than most and he clearly cares for his animals.

Balducci understood what I wanted and build my deck perfectly.

Very skilled, knowledgeable about engineering and code requirements.

Franco was very attentive and wanted to make sure I was completely satisfied with our siding repair. We replaced 3 full sides of siding on our home and the finished product looks fantastic. He was hands on throughout the process and kept in good communication with me. I would definitely recommend him to others looking to do a large siding project.

Balduchi gives competitive bids and stands by his quotes. He is punctual and communicates well. He takes pride in his work and uses superior finishings and materials. He is talented enough to be creative and think out of the box. I enjoyed working with him and will do it again.

Mr. Balducci was very professional and did an excellent job repairing our railing on our front porch. He was also available immediately. I submitted my request late on a Monday night, he called the next morning and agreed to come by to see the project and provide a quote that same day, then he came back the next day to complete the work! I was very satisfied with the outcome and really appreciated how easy it was to work with Home Advisor and the professionals they recommend! I will definitely use Home Advisor and Balducci Builders again.

Great job building a new deck!

His work was acceptable.

Franco rebuilt my entire deck after demolished my old deck. He is a pro. in what he is doing and did a excellent job. He is dedicated and patient with his customer and always nice to everyone around him. I would recommend him to anyone with no reservation.

the price of the repair I think was way too high for the work that was done.

Mr. Balducci is a pro. He knows his business and seems to love what he does. He is strongly committed to safety, and to aesthetics-- all at a modest price. He is constantly looking for ways to eliminate problems, i.e. he suggests small changes in the design that will eliminate water pooling or rot, that will make the work last longer. I learned to respect those suggestions. I had to wait to get on his busy schedule, but it was well worth it. He assessed the work-actually three different jobs--and gave me a date when he could come. An honest, very decent person.

pleasant, warmhearted, artistic, cautious, reasonable financially, skillful.

It was a small repair on a step on my outdoor staircase. After a couple of phone calls he came, got the material and fixed it. I would consider him for a larger job. You can't just hire a contractor without them coming by and seeing the job so off-the cuff estimates are not that useful.

Mr. Balducci explained everything he was going to do before he did it and gave me options for addressing unexpected problems encountered during the work. The work was completed in a professional and timely manner and looks better than it did before the work was done. I am sure I will not have any problems in the future and he has promised to return in a year to inspect the work to make sure there are no issues. I highly recommend Balducci Builders.

Arrived on time, did the work I need. was helpful, I may hire him again and recommend him to my friends

Great work, but was more than 1 hour late.

good job and the price was a great and I will have other jobs for him thank you Franco

Franco Balducci was hired to replace an old staircase. After a very timely and quality completion, I continued his service to replace two retaining walls and lastly to build a large carport. I am completely satisfied and recommend him to anyone requiring carpentry work of any sort. He is versitile, professional, capable and trustworthy. It was nice to hire someone and not worry about competency or cutting corners. He performed as if he was working on his own home.

professional, friendly knows what he is doing. Great Job.!!!
