Got Questions About Your Project?
We've Heard Them All.
Every question below comes from real Sacramento homeowners just like you. If yours isn't listed, call us -- we answer our phone and we don't charge for honest answers.
Everything Sacramento Homeowners Want to Know
Getting Started
Call us at (916) 420-5862 or fill out the contact form. We'll schedule a free on-site consultation where we measure your space, discuss your vision, and provide a detailed written estimate within 48 hours. No obligation, no pressure.
Never. Every consultation and estimate is 100% free. We'll come to your home, assess the project, and provide a detailed written quote. If you decide not to proceed, there's zero cost to you.
No. We don't require a deposit to start work. Materials are purchased on our accounts. You pay when the work is complete and you've inspected the results. This is our way of proving we stand behind our work.
Current lead time is typically 2-4 weeks from agreement, depending on permit timelines and season. Summer is our busiest period, so earlier booking gets earlier start dates. We'll give you a specific timeline during your consultation.
Licensing & Insurance
Yes. We hold two active California contractor licenses: #1092253 and #1059877, including a C-17 glazing specialty license. You can verify both at cslb.ca.gov. Never hire an unlicensed contractor -- it voids your homeowner's insurance protection.
Yes. We carry full general liability insurance and are bonded as required by the California Contractors State License Board. Your property and our workers are fully protected on every project.
BuildZoom ranks us with a score of 102, placing us in the top 11% of all California contractors. This ranking is based on third-party data analysis of licensing history, insurance records, complaint history, and project volume -- not self-reported reviews.
A C-17 license is a specialty classification for glass and glazing work. It means we're specifically licensed to install glass doors, windows, storefronts, curtain walls, and glass railings. Most general contractors don't have this -- they subcontract glass work. We do it in-house.
Projects & Pricing
Standard insulated aluminum patio covers for Sacramento-area homes typically cost $4,000-$12,000 depending on size, attachment method, and finish. We provide exact pricing after measuring your space during the free consultation.
Custom decks range from $15,000-$45,000 depending on size, materials (composite vs. hardwood), railing style, and complexity (multi-level, built-in seating, lighting). We'll provide an itemized quote after assessing your property.
Outdoor kitchens range from $8,000 for a basic BBQ island to $50,000+ for a full kitchen with granite counters, refrigerator, sink, and built-in grill. The scope depends on your vision and budget -- we design to both.
We can discuss payment options during your consultation. Our no-deposit policy already helps manage cash flow -- you don't pay until the work is complete. For larger projects, we can structure milestone payments.
Yes. Our estimates include everything: materials, labor, permits, structural engineering (if required), and cleanup. The price we quote is the price you pay, period. No hidden fees, no surprise extras.
Permits & Process
In most Sacramento-area jurisdictions, yes. Attached patio covers, decks over 30 inches high, sunrooms, and most outdoor structures require building permits. We handle the entire permit process for you -- engineering, submission, inspections.
Typically 2-4 weeks for straightforward projects (patio covers, standard decks). More complex projects (sunrooms, large additions) may take 4-6 weeks. We submit complete packages with structural engineering to minimize delays.
1) Free consultation and site assessment. 2) Detailed written estimate. 3) Design finalization. 4) Permit submission. 5) Material ordering. 6) Construction (most projects: 3-10 days). 7) Final inspection and walkthrough. 8) Payment after your approval.
Yes. We schedule and attend all required inspections with the building department. We know exactly what inspectors look for in Sacramento, Roseville, Rocklin, Elk Grove, Folsom, Citrus Heights, and Antelope. Our projects pass inspection the first time.
Service Areas & Materials
We serve the entire Sacramento metro area including Sacramento, Roseville, Rocklin, Elk Grove, Folsom, Citrus Heights, and Antelope. We're also available for projects in surrounding communities within Placer and Sacramento counties.
We primarily use insulated aluminum patio cover systems. They reflect heat (keeping it 15-20 degrees cooler underneath), resist Sacramento's UV exposure, never rot or warp, and require virtually zero maintenance. They're also available in dozens of colors to match your home.
For Sacramento's climate, we recommend Trex or TimberTech composite decking. It handles the extreme heat and UV without fading, warping, or splintering. It's also low-maintenance -- no staining, sanding, or sealing. We also offer natural hardwoods for clients who prefer real wood.
Yes. If you have an existing structure that needs to be removed before the new project, we handle all demolition, hauling, and disposal. The cost is included in your estimate when applicable.

We're contractors, not salespeople. Ask us anything about your project -- no obligation, no pressure, no charge.
