Homeowner's Representative

Someone on Your Side

Building or remodeling a home is a big investment, and most homeowners don't have the time or expertise to manage it themselves. That's where we come in — we represent you throughout the process.

Homeowner's Representative

Our homeowner's representative service puts an experienced construction professional on your side. We act as your point of contact with architects, contractors, and subcontractors — reviewing work, checking budgets, and making sure what's being built matches what was agreed to. As a general contractor in Sonoma County with over 50 years of experience, we know what good work looks like and what to watch out for.

What We Actually Do

We attend site meetings, review invoices and change orders, inspect work quality, and keep you informed with regular updates — without you having to be on-site every day. We review contracts before you sign them, help you select the right contractor for your project, and flag issues before they become expensive problems. If something isn't right, we deal with it directly. You shouldn't have to become a construction expert to get a good result.

Keeping Things on Track

Construction projects go sideways for predictable reasons — unclear scope, poor communication, and decisions that get made without the homeowner's input. We prevent that. We make sure the schedule is realistic, the budget is tracked, and that you're in the loop on every decision that matters. When issues come up — and they always do — we handle them quickly so they don't snowball into delays or cost overruns.

When It Makes Sense

This service is especially valuable if you're managing a large project from out of town, if you're building a custom home and want an expert reviewing the work, or if you've had a bad experience with a contractor in the past and want someone watching out for you this time. We work on projects across Sonoma County and Marin County — new construction, major remodels, ADUs, and fire rebuilds. As a residential contractor in Sonoma County, we know the local trades, the building departments, and what a well-run job site looks like.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a homeowner's representative do?

We act as your advocate throughout the construction process — reviewing work quality, managing communication with contractors and architects, tracking budgets, and making sure the project stays on schedule and on spec.

When should I hire one?

Ideally before the project starts — during planning and contractor selection. That way we can help you set up the project for success from the beginning, including reviewing contracts and budgets.

Is this only for new construction?

No. We provide this service for any significant project — kitchen and bathroom remodels, additions, ADUs, fire rebuilds, and whole-home renovations. Any project where you want someone experienced watching out for your interests.

How does this save me money?

By catching problems early, preventing unnecessary change orders, and ensuring you're getting the quality you're paying for. Our oversight typically saves homeowners more than the cost of the service.
