“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.”

“A few years ago my wife and I moved into an Eichler home in SF that had never been remodeled since it was built in the 1960s. Erik and Bay 9 Architects helped us bring the house up to date while respecting the mid-century modern architecture of the original home. We fully remodeled the kitchen and all the bathrooms. In addition, the living and bedrooms were refreshed so the whole home now has a contemporary and upscale look and feel. Erik was always accessible during the process and he worked well with my wife, who is a talented interior designer.”

“Tyler and the DDB team are highly professional and compassionate. I had unique site constraints in that I wanted to build an accessory dwelling unit (backyard cottage) very near a large and significant tree. Tyler listened to my needs and was able to deliver a project that maximized the possibilities. The tree became the centerpiece of the cottage, enlivening it inside and out. Tyler and team's experience in the subtleties of design made the cottage extremely livable and rentable. When a contractor problem became apparent, Tyler personally stepped in to chart a path forward, eventually connecting me to a new GC who was a pleasure. I'm extremely thankful to Tyler for for his creativity, caring, and professionalism throughout the project.”
