Who we are
Your Piedmont team
Piedmont is a pre-war estate city. Mediterranean. Tudor. Craftsman. Spanish Revival. 1910-1935 construction with original millwork, built-ins, period tile, stained glass — architectural details that make these homes valuable and that deserve a contractor who knows when to preserve them.
We work throughout Piedmont — Crocker Highlands, Blair Park, the hillside blocks above Oakland Avenue, the Piedmont Avenue side. On every project, the first call is preservation vs. replacement. A lot of Piedmont kitchens have original built-in cabinetry that is genuinely better than anything you could buy new — the right move is usually to restore, refinish, and swap countertops around them. Same thinking on bathrooms: galvanized plumbing behind the walls often needs to come out, but the period tile on the floor or the claw-foot tub often deserves to stay.
