Countertops, bathrooms, and flooring installation for Berkeley homeowners. North Berkeley to the Flats — your neighbors trust us.

Your Berkeley Remodeling Team

Soto Bay Construction is based in Oakland, and we have been serving Berkeley homeowners since 2013. From the quiet tree-lined blocks of North Berkeley to the charming shops along College Avenue in Elmwood, from Thousand Oaks up in the hills to the Flats near the waterfront — we know this city block by block.

Berkeley's housing stock is an eclectic mix of brown shingle homes, stucco Craftsmans, mid-century modern builds, and early 1900s Victorians. Each style demands a different approach. Older homes require proper prep — careful demolition around plaster walls, leveling subfloors that have settled over a century, and choosing materials that respect the home's original character. We understand this because we live here and work on these homes every week.

As a family-owned company, we take pride in doing things right. Whether you need new quartz countertops for your Claremont kitchen, a complete bathroom remodel in your North Berkeley bungalow, or fresh hardwood flooring throughout your Elmwood flat, we handle it under one contract with clear communication from start to finish.
