Ryan Construction

We needed to replace our 2^nd story decking off our master bedroom in our Millbrae home. We are glad we first referenced Unilocal! and the endorsement made by Linda T. regarding Ryan Construction. Billy Ryan is a throwback to a time when a man’s word is his bond. Everything Billy promised was delivered. The results are outstanding and work completed for a reasonable price. Yes the job took longer than expected, due in large part to Billy personally supervised all aspects of the job, but we wanted to have the work done correctly rather than in haste.
We ended up with not only a wonderful contractor, but a friend. When it came time for final payment, we included an additional amount as a bonus to Lias, the primiary workman on the job. To paraphrase a commercial heard for years in the Bay Area; «If you did not request a bid from Ryan Construction, then you made a mistake».

Billy Ryan and his team do a superb job at a reasonable price. They built a beautiful, raised two-​level deck with a herringbone pattern and two built-​in benches that my landscape architect designed. Not only did they build was what designed, they added handrails going down both staircases, which I’m pretty sure is needed to pass inspection, but was left out of the diagrams.
Admittedly, it took two months to complete, which was nearly twice as long as I was lead to expect. However, the craftsmanship is top, and I would much rather have a well-​constructed, beautiful deck in a longer amount of time than a sloppily built one to meet the deadline. And actually, Billy and Lias, the latter of whom was the actual carpenter, are such nice guys. I sensed that they are honest professionals who had my best interests in mind. Billy also seems well-​connected to other well-​run businesses, like a stucco person I needed to patch where my old deck was, and a glass place to deal with my kitchen window. I really can’t say enough good things about these guys!
