What people say about us:
We can't say enough good things about GPC. We did a pretty extensive remodel to our existing 1045 sq/ft 2 bed 1 bath home. We almost completely gutted the house and turned it into a 2200 sq/ft 4 bed 2 bath custom home. Since my father-in-law is an electrician (and does plumbing) we wanted to handle those scopes ourselves. GPC bent over backwards to accommodate our needs (budget, schedule etc.) and was willing to work with us every step of the project (often offering great suggestions/help). In the end, we were very pleased with the work that they did and couldn't be happier with the outcome! Thanks, GPC, for building us our dream home! -Jared T.
Greater Pacific Construction provided me with a beautiful home addition as well as filling in an old swimming pool. The staff was professional, friendly and knowledgeable. They provided me with a quote in writing as well as their license information so I knew they were the company to go with. They provided me with additional work not initially quoted, but were professional in making sure I had all my needs met. I would highly recommend them.

I have had a lot of remodeling done before and Greater Pacific is by far the best I have come across. All the work was done in about 3 weeks in between Christmas and New Years. He is a really good guy, follows through, and did all the work perfect. - Kerry D.
We interviewed many contractors, some were referrals and some we had found in advertisement. We came across Greater Pacific's contact info on the web and requested a quote for our Room Addition. They immediately scheduled their estimator to meet with us and provided us with a complete and well planned proposal. They are experts at what they do and built a quality 2nd level addition for us. They are honest and very knowledgeable. We would definitely recommend them to anyone who is planning to do any kind of room addition or remodeling work. Thank you Greater Pacific for your services and efforts. - Nancy and Jim S.
Thank you Greater Pacific for all of the efforts that you put into our project. We are extremely pleased with the experience we have with your company and would recommend Greater Pacific to any of our friends or family looking to do an addition or renovation. Our family and friends love the work you did for us and we are very happy about the fact that we picked you as our Contractor. We wish you success with the rest of your projects and hope to work with you again. - Sara A.

Home Remodeling and Construction in California:
Virtually homes and apartments have space limitations or unusual shapes. The locations of building wiring, plumbing, structural elements, and other fixed features often pose design challenges. |
|
Creative and sophisticated thinking, combined with in-depth knowledge of city codes and building regulations, are essential to solving these challenges and designing to the maximum potential of your space.
The first decision you may have to make is whether to hire an architect. In general, if you plan to make an addition to the building, or alter or relocate structural elements such as beams or supporting walls, you will have to obtain architectural plans. These will then be filed with building department to obtain a building permit. Major relocations of gas lines or building plumbing also require permits.
If the alteration is less severe and does not require architectural plans, a properly licensed contractor can do the filing for you. If you are simply remodeling without changing the locations of gas lines, plumbing, or any structural elements, then you won't need to file with the building department.
Most do not require filing with the building department. But in all cases, your contractor must provide you with insurance coverage, a written job description and contract, and any other documentation that your building may require.
A design/build firm such as ours has the skilled professionals to do everything you need in-house, from of all details.
For your own enjoyment, and also for re-sale value, the most important room to remodel is your kitchen. More and more, the kitchen is becoming the focus for gatherings of friends and family. If you are only planning to remodel your kitchen, you can jump ahead to our "Kitchens" page for a complete description of that renovation process.
The second most significant room to remodel is your bathroom. The process is fairly similar to a Kitc kitchen except, instead of appliances, more plumbing is required. As with the kitchen, you will need to select the items to be installed before the work can begin. For all your selections, we make your shopping easy, informative, and complete.
Don't overlook the added value of custom built-ins in other rooms of your home. Think for a moment about some exquisite homes you may have seen. The traditional ones have wainscot paneling, fine wood bookcases and furniture, coffered ceilings, and other built-ins that make these homes so elegant and valuable.
Contemporary homes are best enhanced by a careful selection of materials, stains, paint colors, and finishes to create richness with minimal decor.
Whether your taste is traditional, contemporary, or in-between, value always shows in the quality and finishes of the materials you choose. To assure your complete satisfaction, we do all the specifying in-house and we carry though on the fabrication, delivery, and final details of installation on all the custom products you would like. |
