New & Custom Home Builders Near Pleasant Hill

“Scott White is, without question, the best contractor we have ever worked with. Before building our dream home in Orinda, California, we had completed several remodels on previous homes and rental properties. Like many homeowners, we had experienced the frustrations and unexpected challenges that often come with construction projects, so we were understandably skeptical when starting this journey. Fortunately, we were introduced to Scott after he completed a friend's home. We toured the finished project to see the quality of his work firsthand, and we were immediately impressed. The craftsmanship, attention to detail, and overall finish exceeded our expectations. After meeting Scott, we knew he was the right person to help bring our vision to life. What truly sets Scott apart is his organization, communication, and ability to manage a project from start to finish. Throughout the entire build, we did not encounter any unpleasant surprises. The project ran smoothly because Scott was always thinking ahead, proactively addressing issues, and keeping everyone on track. In an industry where cost overruns, delays, and unexpected problems are often considered inevitable, Scott's planning and oversight gave us tremendous peace of mind. His accounting and invoicing were exceptionally organized and transparent. He has an excellent eye for design and quality, is meticulous in his work, and genuinely cares about delivering a beautiful final product. Just as importantly, Scott's subcontractors were fantastic. Every person who worked on our home was skilled, professional, respectful, and held to the same high standards that Scott sets for himself. Building a custom home is one of the biggest investments a family can make, and we are incredibly grateful that we chose Scott to guide us through the process. The end result exceeded our expectations, and we now live in the home we always dreamed of. We would hire Scott again without hesitation and recommend him wholeheartedly to anyone considering a custom build or major remodel.”

“We worked with Hugo from GoldenView Renovation on our full blueprint set and then completed a JADU build along with a full remodel of our main house home project. From start to finish, Hugo was outstanding in every way—professional, knowledgeable, receptive, and incredibly detail-oriented. It is truly impressive the way he listens to and reads every single question we had and always gave complete and succinct responses. In any residential construction project, challenges are inevitable—whether it’s navigating city requirements, managing plan revisions and inspections, coordinating with third parties and vendors, handling showroom deliveries, or working with utility companies on service upgrades—and Hugo handled all of it through the entire pre-construction and construction phase. He remained steadfastly professional, focused, calm, and goal oriented. What really set GoldenView Renovation apart was Hugo’s ability to manage every phase of the project seamlessly — from design coordination and city approvals to construction and final finishes. Communication was always clear and consistent; timelines were well organized, and Hugo was always available to answer questions or walk us through decisions on a daily and weekly basis. The quality of work exceeded our expectations. The craftsmanship, attention to detail, and overall execution were excellent, and the final result looks beautiful. It is clear that Hugo truly takes pride in his work; he goes above and beyond in genuinely caring about delivering the best possible outcome for his clients. His team member Andrew also assisted in the process and was incredibly helpful and great to have on board as well. If you’re looking for a contractor you can trust for blueprints, JADU/ADU construction, new construction, and full home remodeling, I give Hugo and GoldenView Renovation my highest recommendation without reservation. They are truly exceptional. We would absolutely work with them again and couldn’t be happier with the results.”

“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.”
