Schafer Construction just completed a deck repair/restoring project at my Berkeley, CA home and they were professional, knowledgeable, and wonderful to work with. Most importantly, their work is first rate. I have a large upper and lower redwood deck in my back yard. Like many homeowners, after several of years of keeping the deck in good shape we allowed it to become weather-worn and several small areas needed replacement. I contact several companies that did deck work before I found Schafer Construction in San Leandro, CA. Rudi Schafer came out to my home and took the time to give me a concise tutorial on everything decks. He also informed me my deck was not in as bad a shape as I thought. Schafer Construction's project proposal allowed me to pick from several repair/restoration choices, depending on my budget and what I wanted to get done. The results were amazing. My 20-year-old second story deck, which looked worn and beat up, was restored by Schafer's unique process to the point where it now looks recently new. Other areas of the lower deck were expertly repaired. As with all projects, there were a few loose ends all which Schafer Construction addressed before the project was declared finished. Schafer Construction offers a variety of construction services, I can't wait to work with them again when I'm ready to do my next project.

After interviewing and seeking bids from several companies, Schafer Construction came out on top. Thanks to the friendly professionalism and expertise of Rudi Schafer, and the thoroughness, quality, and competitive pricing of the design proposal. From the beginning to end, the entire crew of Schafer Construction exceeded our expectations. They replaced our upper and lower redwood deck (for 30+ years) with much larger, reinforced decks of quality grade redwood and repaired areas of dry rot. The crew was courteous and hard-working, and always cleaned up at the end of the day. They were much more carpenters, they were expert craftsmen who took pride in the quality and detail of their work especially in the railing of black matte balusters framed with redwood. Everyone who has seen our new decks are blown away by the transformation. Our new decks now provide an exquisite setting for entertaining and simply enjoying the beauty of the Bay. We heartily recommend Schafer Construction and would consider them again if the need arose.

Barbara J. – San Leandro, CA

I am on the Board of Directors for a town home complex near the San Leandro Marina.  Over the years we have had several general contractors make repairs, unfortunately not properly.  Then we found Schafer Construction.  From the first inspection to the completion of various projects, the process was seamless.  They were informative, and any questions were answered promptly.  The work was completed on time, above and beyond our expectations.  I would highly recommend Schafer Construction.

"Schafer Construction saved our deck and our sanity. We have one of those large decks in Monclair that can only be worked on with scaffolding and we knew that it was beginning to deteriorate and need some major work."
