“The project that EBCON Co. did for me wrapped up about a week ago. I thought they did an excellent job. The project was to design and build an ensuite addition to my house for my disabled sister, who will be moving in with me in a couple of months. I hired EBCON for the project as they had done my home remodel when I moved into my current house 10 years ago. I was very happy with that project and pleased that several of their key personnel and subcontractors were the same as for my previous project. The current project consisted of a bedroom/studio, bath, hallway/study, walk-through clothes closet, lots of storage space, and small outdoor patio with wheelchair ramp. As my sister is an artist and art teacher, we asked for a design that provided high walls for hanging her paintings and extra space in the bedroom/studio for her to paint and potentially teach a few students. The design process went very well. The designer worked constructively with us and made numerous trips to tile, stone, and carpet stores with us to select materials. We greatly appreciated the detailed plan skeches she generated, some of which showed my sister’s paintings up on the walls in her bedroom/studio! Challenges, including access to the addition through existing bedrooms and integrating the design with the existing house, were solved well. ADA guidelines for accessibility were strictly followed for the design and materials. We – and all our family and friends - love the design and how it has turned out. The construction work was very high quality – EBCON has very high standards for the work done on their projects, including for the smallest details. The EBCON team and the sub-contractors they brought in were great to work with through all the stages, including design, construction, and completion. In addition to weekly on-site progress meetings (which included the project manager, superintendent, designer, and often the head of the company), I was kept informed on a daily basis about what was happening and the timing for next steps. EBCON staff were always on site while work was being done, and they were always reachable for conversations. Overall we are very happy with the project. I would definitely use EBCON again were I to have another project, and I recommend them without reservation to anyone planning a large or small home construction or renovation project.”

“Greg has a long history of designing new houses and remodeling in Marin. We worked with him on a full remodel in Mill Valley. The project, as many full remodels are in the historic town, was tricky and challenging. He was mindful of our budget, listened to our ideas, and worked with us on multiple options and designs to help us make educated choices. He was able to expand and completely redesign the inside of the house while preserving part of the history of the 100-year-old house. His insights on how to work with the building departments were invaluable. He didn't delegate and we always worked directly with him: he became intimately familiar with the site, house, and project. He was also very responsive, making himself available even when out of town which was a bonus when decisions and changes had to be made quickly. If you like the style of the houses he has designed, don't hesitate to hire him, especially if you work with him and Jim Barton as the contractor - they make a great team!”

“We did total remodel for our condo in SF. Christi and Nataly did a wonderful job of designing exactly what we wanted. They listened and delivered a beautiful project. Could not be happier. Highly recommend them. Thank you”
