Featured Reviews for Sacramento General Contractors

Rasmussen Construction
Sacramento General Contractors
Aug 25, 2012
“Dave Rasmussen and all of the people that work with him are among the most highly skilled, resourceful, honest and considerate people that we have ever had work on our home. Deadlines and budgets were respected and for the most part were adhered to, unless we changed the scope of work. On many aspects of the construction we were presented with various options so that the completed project (a kitchen, pantry, bar, family room and finished lower level) was very tailored to our needs. The whole crew was respectful to our neighbors who never complained during the year-long project. Dave worked seamlessly with architect David Gast, whom I would also highly recommend, so that the entire project proceeded smoothly without time delays or problems of communication.”
MD Construction
Sacramento General Contractors
Feb 24, 2015
“Mike Nethersole and MD Construction are great! They built our house in Truckee in 2001 and we still receive compliments about the style and beauty of the woodwork and improvements in the home. Mr. Nethersole pays close attention to details and has an eye for beauty and style. His company has an excellent reputation in the Tahoe area and he is committed to providing the best value for quality construction. He never ceases to amaze me with his ideas for improving the customer experience using the latest technology to create a complete record and to keep the client informed. I can not recommend him enough!”
Penna Construction
Sacramento General Contractors
Mar 19, 2018
“Sean and his team remodeled our home in SSF as we prepared it for the rental market. The quality of their work is top notch and they are very thorough in all phases of the project. We often deferred to Sean when it came to design ideas and product choices and the decisions turned out to be spot on. His responsiveness is also very quick which kept us in the loop at all times. Have already recommended Penna Construction to another family member.”
Dianda Construction
Sacramento General Contractors
Jun 13, 2017
“Best decision we ever made was hiring Dianda Construction for our down-to-the-studs remodel. They worked well with our Designer, Architect, Lighting persons and Decorators and that is a feat in of itself. The last thing you need when you undertake a multi-million dollar project is to have to act as a referee. In the end we saved money because of Dianda’s insights and when other folks assisting on the project requested items that were impractical. The follow-up service after we moved-in was impeccable and they were there whenever they were called. Fortunately, the build was of such high quality, we had very few issues and they were all pretty minor. Hiring a builder/general contractor is a very important decision and one most of us choose without enough due-diligence. In our case Dianda and all of their folks made our home beautiful and the project a delightful experience. I know very few folks who can say that. But we are one of those lucky people.”
Strong Tower Construction
Sacramento General Contractors
Oct 3, 2018
“Friendly and professional workers. We ran into a few obstacles, but they were very quick in coming up with solutions and minimizing costs. The only thing I would recommend, as with any construction project, is to expect something to go wrong. As I was not their only client, the project ran longer than expected -also something I would clarify in the beginning of the project so as not to be disappointed. However, the fact that they were nice guys made up for it.”
Stellar Renovations
Sacramento General Contractors
Jan 28, 2016
“In January 2014 we had a total kitchen remodel done by Stellar. The old kitchen was small, outdated and dysfunctional. They removed everything and expanded the kitchen footprint. We supplied the flooring, cabinets, counter top, back splash, appliances, sink, faucet and hardware. Total cost was $29,000 for labor. The transformation is amazing and we still get compliments from everyone who sees it. Overall it was a good experience. We lived in the house while the renovation took place, which is not something I would recommend, but they were able to work around us and after about 3 months we have a "stellar" home.”
David Joseph Heuser
Sacramento General Contractors
Jul 1, 2018
“David remodeled our bathroom and did a great job! The house is over 100 years old and of course there were many things not right. He was able to plumb the walls and floors, fix the plumbing and electrical and get an 8 foot marble slab stone shower installed. David is very seasoned and has the gamut of skills to complete almost any job - from rough construction, foundations to installing cabinetry, hanging door and crown moulding. He will always try to make it right and not take the short cut just to complete the job. He is very precise in his work. If you want quality and attention to details, then David is your contractor.”
C. Scott Whitten, Inc.
Sacramento General Contractors
Sep 29, 2016
“I have used Scott's company several times and will use him again...he is one of the most knowledgeable people I have met in the construction field.”
Redwood Builders
Sacramento General Contractors
Jan 6, 2018
“Dan Harbin was excellent to do business with. Always on time. Always polite. Completed the job when promised. I would definitely recommend Redwood Builders for your project.”
TJ Glidden Construction
Sacramento General Contractors
Feb 24, 2015
“Trevor Glidden has performed two major projects for me and a master bath remodel. T J Glidden Construction has exceeded my expectations each time. Trevor, his employees and subcontractors have always been professional and polite ( our grandkids were often with us). He worked incredibly well with our architects and interior designers and kept the integrity and feeling of our over 100 year young Tahoe Home. Trevor completed the projects on time and on budget. I highly recommend T J Glidden Construction in all regards. Now the third major remodel interior and exterior to our Beautiful Old Home on Lake Tahoe which was originally surrounded by 25 acres of land and accessed by horse and buggy. His skill in maintaining our home’s antique quality while updating all mechanical and physical quality has been superb. We recommend TJGlidden Construction at the highest in all facets!”

What is a general contractor?


General, or construction contractors, are often known as project managers. They oversee the entire remodeling or new home construction project and facilitate all day-to-day tasks that move it toward completion. A Sacramento general building contractor will work with your architect to review plan as you build a house and ensure everything is in place before work is started as well as arrange for permits and necessary inspections. While good local home improvement contractors in Sacramento will have the skills to handle certain tasks onsite, such as carpentry, he or she is also responsible for hiring subcontractors for the majority of jobs, such as electrical work, painting or plumbing. In addition, the general contractor should be on-site regularly to inspect the progress and resolve issues. Here are some related professionals and vendors to complement the work of general contractors: Architects & Building Designers, Interior Designers & Decorators, Landscape Architects & Landscape Designers, Kitchen & Bath Designers, Specialty Contractors.

Home remodeling contractors are a must for successful completion of a renovation. Because of this, it's essential that you do your homework before deciding on the right general contractor in Sacramento as you remodel or build a house. Inspect bids carefully. Was it ready when the contractor promised it? Was the bid for building a home unusually high or low? Each of these things can be very telling: A late bid may reflect timing standards, and an off-the-mark bid could be code for a pricey premium or a deliberate underbid to score the remodeling job. You should call references, carefully read reviews and visit completed projects in Sacramento to see if they’re what you expect for your job. Once you do secure your local Sacramento contractors, read the contract very carefully to be sure everyone is on the same page.

Questions to ask prospective Sacramento general contractors:


  • How long have you been in the business?
  • How many projects like mine have you completed?
  • Who will be working on the project?
  • What qualities do you look for in your subcontractors?
  • Can you provide me with references?
  • Are you licensed and insured?
  • How do you charge, and what does that include?
  • What happens when costs exceed budget, whether due to materials or labor pricing changes? What about changes made by the client or by the professionals — what kinds of situations would cause those costs to be incurred?
  • Can you give me a written estimate?
  • What do your services include?
  • When can your job get done?
  • What will I need to provide?
  • Are there any important considerations or concerns you foresee with this project?
