SPC Design and Build

We had Sean and his team come out to give us a quote on a kitchen and bathroom remodel. Its true when they say save the best for last, all the other contractors just kind of looked around didn't really take measurements and then left. Sean spent 2 hours taking measurements, talking about what we wanted, and talking about potential ideas. He explained the entire process and then had us come out to his office to sit down go over the quote and answer any questions we had on the spot. His teams work was perfect and everyone always communicated with us quickly. Could not be happier with the experience.

I contacted with Sean and team for a custom kitchen cabinet. It's a pantry cabinet, microwave opening and drawers in the bottom.

We had Sean and his team remodel our bathroom and we could not be happier with the results. The amount of detailed questions they asked to make sure everything was perfect no other contractor asked us nor did the designer we were working with before we found S&C. If you want someone who is down to earth and will explain every last detail than I definitely recommend Sean. We have already rescheduled another estimate for our kitchen!

We reached out to S&C Construction in April of this year to get a quote for remodeling our kitchen. Let me start with there were many red flags missed on our part that we did not catch on to until November. The first red flag was the consultation. It was not thorough at all and we were left with a lot of what ifs that other contractors brought up that (although more expensive) eliminated the need for a lot of change orders/un expected expensed once the project got started. Second, highly qualified contractors list their license number on their website so that potential clients know they are licensed by the state of California. Sean Carroll's license is listed to have only been active for a year. We would have never hired someone with this little experience. Third, and the biggest red flag was that Sean charges a 30% "project set up fee" which is illegal in the state of California. I am curious if he has charged all of his clients this amount or just us. We paid him this deposit back in May of 2021. The contract or estimate approval never came with a timeline for the project, blank change order form, insurance information, and several line items that were not included in the contract he provided as required by the state. In other words, the contract was invalid from the beginning. It is illegal in the state of California to charge a project set up fee for work not yet completed or a deposit that exceeds 10% or $1,000. Every licensed contractor we have spoken to since and yes, they are more expensive, and more thorough have advised us that this is illegal. In November, after still no anticipated start date for the project and after having to design our kitchen ourselves (when we were told we would be working with a designer), and after finally realizing that the contract was illegal, we requested our deposit back as we were no longer comfortable with working with him. He has refused any and all requests for a refund and has basically disappeared, once he saw he was caught. He claimed that the deposit was to protect any work on the project. He has not done any work on our home other than provide questionable estimates and sub-par renderings. He claimed the deposit was for ordering materials. This is also illegal and he never ordered anything, because he never gave us a start date until we started pressing him in November. We have filed a complaint against Sean Carroll and his company with the state license board and he has yet to respond to that complaint. Stay as far away from this company as possible. He completely took advantage of us. We have spoken to several contractors since who have given us higher, yet more thorough estimates and only require a $1,000 deposit to set up the project. We also became suspicious as to why his estimate was so competitive including custom cabinets and it's because the estimate is bare bones and illegal to begin with. You do not want to be in this position because once a contractor tears up your home you will

Sean, Vladimir, and Alysia were amazing from the get go. They set expectations and follow through with them every step of the way. They were not the cheapest bid but I am so glad I spent the extra money for the service they provided. Truly made the experience painless and easy. I will be using them again without hesitation.

Sean is great at answering any question you might have as well as making sure all your construction/remodeling work goes according to codes. Excellent service!

We used S&C Construction for two projects and both were completed on time and budget. The first was our master bathroom remodel, the second was installing all new hardwood floors, replacing all doors and windows and a complete.They were always on time and very honest with what has to be done correctly-no short cuts. We are very happy with the result. We have recommended S&C Construction to our friends and plan to use them again for future project.

Excellent job. Attention to detail, follow up and excellent craftsmanship. Sean and his team did a major refacing job on our kitchen and bath cabinets and they look brand new. We will recommend him to our friends.

Installed a window for my bedroom, and I love it. The company has excellent customer service and is very professionally run. (One example: during the installation the crew took great care to make sure they kept my apartment clean). Certainly would do business with them again.

Sean and his team were incredibly efficient, clean, and did great work on my closet renovation. His price was competitive and the job was done exactly as quoted--in less time than anticipated. Definitely recommend and plan on using these guys for future projects!

Did an excellent job on my bathroom. Finished in 5 days, Sean and his crew were professional, Sean the project manager was very communicative. I highly recommend S&C Construction. Their remodeling work was much better than my last bad experiences.

Worked with Sean on my Kitchen and Bathroom renovation.He supplied a custom bathroom cabinet that matched the kitchen style I chose. He was extremely helpful throughout the process, always available for questions/follow-ups. Would definitely recommend. Love my new cabinets!
