"Updating our home was a dream we have had for years. But finding a good contractor in Bay Area was so difficult, that we almost gave up. We were introduced to United C Construction by our architect(who we also love!) It was exhausting trying to find someone trustworthy and not overpriced. We had luck of working with Osmar which during the project we had clear communication, expectation of setting, professionalism and superior craftsmanship. He walked us through every step of the way, and helped problem solve tough permitting and structural issues in Berkeley!"

"We were looking to remodel our kitchen or bath for a few years. We kept getting estimates from different companies and always felt the price was off or the person was not a good fit. Then, finally, we met Shai with Cal Green Remodeling. What a great guy! He is very upfront and honest about what we can expect in terms of cost and work flow. Because of his honest approach, we hired him. We felt he gave us the good and bad and how to resolve the bad as well. In the end, the process was fairly smooth, and the few hick-ups we had, for example, the city and their permit process, were well explained to us at the beginning, so we were ready. Our kitchen or bath looks amazing, and I plan to work with Cal Green Remodeling again. Thanks Shai!"

Geico Builders specializes in meeting your expectations before, during, and after the project is complete. Our most upstanding quality is our accountability--you can expect us to own the work we complete for your home. Of course, we know accountability means nothing without proof, which is why we are happy to offer a 2-year workmanship warranty to all of our clients. This is a rare quality for this industry, but we wanted to prove to you that we stand by our craftsmanship through our home remodeling construction services. Every Crew at Geico Builders has been professionally trained and will treat your home with integrity and respect.

"We recently wrapped up a two bathroom renovation with Geico Builders and the end result speaks for itself! I just took a shower in one of our new bathrooms and it was like going to a fancy spa or hotel. I could not have envisioned it this great at the start, it has completely transformed our home. Feels almost unreal to have such beautiful, high end rooms in our home now! I had never done a remodel before and had barely posted the job on Angie’s list when Mila reached out and set the standard for what a consultation could be like. She had ideas for what could be done and David was nearby with his crew and could take a quick look so I got a brief feel for their teamwork. I talked with 5 groups in person and this team had a great cost/value balance and were willing to help me customize it how I wanted. Mila told me about their 3D design option and that reminded me that I do something somewhat similar for my job, so I mocked up the space in Maya and designed out several options that Mila looked through and helped me narrow down. Printouts of those posted on a wall at the job site really helped keep everyone on the same page. David’s attitude on the job was wonderful to be around, he values his team and is so positive. His crew worked fast and I had to hustle to keep up to order the materials in time. Both he and Mila went tile shopping with me and were a big help. There are so many options! If I were to go back I would have spent time picking out the exact pieces I wanted from the store we went with rather than done delivery—natural stone has huge variations so I was surprised by some of the tile when it came. The team was so fast that some of the stone had gone up before I saw it and several pieces were too dark. They were very understanding of the issue and fixed it when I brought pieces that were more representative of what we selected in the store. They consistently proved how trustworthy they were and backed up what they said from the beginning: that they were here for me, had my back and wanted me to be happy with the final product! Whenever I had a request or wasn’t sure with how something was coming together they took the time to walk me through it, listen to my perspective and shift if it made sense and would make me more confident in the process. I truly appreciated each time they double checked with me for my opinion and noticed when something was off! (For example, I had picked two grout colors thinking one was whitish and the other grey when in reality they were both almost the same in color! The crew caught it and I was able to get the right one quickly.) It was a huge collaboration, I’ll admit I wasn’t aware how much if my time researching and being available would be needed at first. It has been a steep learning curve but Mila and David were there for me. (Probably didn’t help that I designed and built some of the furniture to fit the space on the time investment side, but it paid off) Thank you Geico Builders for the stunning bathrooms! Your team’s work ethic, perseverance and expertise has been so appreciated!"

"Our experience is identical to what other reviewers shared. And yes, you should run from this company as fast as you can. Do not buy what Abraham shared that the payment must be made when the inspection is passed. Check the Business and Professions code yourself, the payment only needs to be made when the job is completed. It is very COMMON that the job is not even done or poorly performed even the inspection is passed. Here are the issues that multiple families including us run into with this company:: The project was delayed for over 9 months. No one manages the job. He often employs young men from his own Jewish community. They are enthusiastic but had no prior experience. The worse part is that they don't get paid. Two of them even set up a new construction business knowing Abraham will never pay them. Subcontractors can put your house on lien also. Many reviews you see on Yelp, Google, Angi are NOT genuine. Even the references are fake with hindsight, we were given 2 references. One reference shared the exact same accent as the PM. The other reference was initially happy with their work, but then reached out to us and shared a similar horror story with them like what we experienced. You will lose a lot of $$$ on materials as the subcontractors will somehow leave a thousand dollars worth of quartz at home. Maybe they want to compensate for the money Abraham owed them? Let me tell you, reordering materials is not fun."

"Excellent! I thought I needed a new thermostat since I wasn’t getting any heat. Juan came over , checked the circuit breaker and found that the breaker was worn out. He replaced the breaker and found that the thermostat was still functioning. He could have said that the thermostat needed replacing too but instead he just said you needed a new circuit breaker. I really appreciated the honesty. If he said I needed the thermostat too I would have paid for both thus increasing my bill. I just want to add a few more comments about the work that he’s done for me. I first met Juan when he came over to my house to stabilize a lose tile that was above my garage door. Then I showed him mold growing next to my shower door. He found a small crack that allowed water to seep into the sheet rock. He replaced the shower door and the sheet rock that was growing mold. Then I took him to the bathroom where I showed him a bulging floor board next to the toilet. He found a small crack in the toilet tank that slowly dripped water on to the backside of toilet dripping water onto the base board. He offered to repair the tank but I told him to go ahead and replace the toilet. I can’t say enough about Juan. Whatever the problem is he’ll figure out how to fix it. When he approaches a problem he approaches with a positive attitude. Another time my ceiling fan went out and I asked him to come out to see what the problem was. Instead over the phone he told me to check the remote control. I went on Amazon and ordered a new remote control . I placed in new batteries and the fan started working. He didn’t charge me anything for the advice. I was prepared to buy a new fan and all I needed was a new remote. Juan is multi talented. I’ve recommend him to my neighbor and he’s done a couple of projects for her (leaking roof). Lastly, in a couple of weeks he’s coming over to paint my front door and put a new latch on my side gate. I’m 77 years with an injured leg so fixing things around the house is difficult for me. Juan has made my life easier."

FAQs for sunroom or patio enclosure building service projects in San Leandro, CA

A sunroom is a fully enclosed space with walls of windows or glass. It allows you to enjoy the outdoors from the comfort of the indoors, protected from bugs and weather. It functions as an additional room in your home. A covered patio extends your home's roof over an outdoor area, providing shade and shelter while remaining open to the fresh air. It's a great way to enjoy outdoor living while being protected from sun and rain.

Adding screens to your porch is the most budget-friendly way to enclose it. Screening keeps out insects and debris while letting you enjoy the breeze and outdoor ambiance. It's less expensive than installing full walls or glass enclosures and doesn't usually require permits, making it an efficient way to upgrade your porch.

If you're transforming your porch into a fully enclosed living space like a sunroom, you'll likely need a sturdy foundation, such as a reinforced concrete slab, to support the structure. For a simple screened-in porch, you might be able to use the existing floor and support posts without additional foundation work. It's best to consult a professional to determine what's needed for your project.

An enclosed porch can be considered a living space if it's fully enclosed with solid walls and windows, has a proper roof, and includes heating and cooling systems. It should also have direct access from inside your home. When these criteria are met, the space becomes an extension of your home's livable area.
