GL Construction - Santa Rosa, California

Bob Rosenberg

For many years we wanted to remodel our downstairs garage in order to create a more functional space. We searched high and low for contractors we thought we could trust and who could do the job at a price we could afford.

We interviewed a number of contractors, but had trouble finding someone with whom we thought we could work for one reason or another. We were actually close to giving up on the project, when, in the course of a neighborhood walk, we came across a sign, GL Construction, on a home under construction. A few days later, we took a chance and called GL Construction. We were warmly greeted by the owner, Gabriel Lopez, who agreed to stop by to look at our space.

After interviewing Gabriel, we knew right away that we wanted to work with him. Gabriel is very knowledgeable, engaging, and has an incredible can-do attitude. He and his crew transformed our raw and unfinished garage into a lovely space.

Anytime an issue related to the project came up, Gabriel and his crew met with us to discuss the best and most cost-effective way to address the problem. While it is not unusual for hiccups to occur during a remodeling process, we experienced very few unanticipated wrinkles, and the project was completed earlier than expected.

We are thrilled with how the remodel turned out. Below are a few before and after pictures:

We added a bathroom, laundry room, and created additional living space.

We highly recommend GL Construction for any job, big or small. They are professional, courteous, kind, and above all efficient!

Extremely unprofessional if any issues arise. Worker was driving down the city road in a backhoe with the bucket completely full of work equipment spilling out with a shirt with the logo of this company on the back and I messaged them and all they said was “That’s badass” on a clear violation. Very untrustworthy if he thinks breaking rules is cool and “badass” as a business man so I’d definitely consider someone else for the simple fact it seems he’s not afraid to be shady and he thinks its funny to be called out for it. It was established it wasnt his worker currently and it was another man with his logo on the shirt but the overall response of “badass” when you’re trying to inform a business owner of someone violating the safety standards is very concerning, even with name and logo attached. He even told us to leave that man alone and mind our own business. Seems like this man will cut corners for safety if he can and humors it so definitely be careful. I’m also assuming he hires people who cut safety corners if this man had his shirt on.

Gabriel and his team did an amazing job on the remodel of our Novato house in preparation for sale. They were consistently on time, on budget and always figured out reasonable solutions to the inevitable "unexpected problems". Highly recommend.

Gabriel and his dad are the absolute best. In addition to being great people, they are true craftsmen and do quality work at a fair price -- a rarity in Marin. Highly recommend.
