Stine Builders

I can’t praise Morgan Stine enough. I found him when a friend of his was buying one of my listings and he came to the inspection. Exhibiting a thorough knowledge and love of good structure, he became the builder of a screen porch on my 1915 bungalow. He helped me figure out the design I wanted (at one point it almost became a hut with tin roof), provided an extremely detailed estimate, started and finished the job on time, kept to his estimate, kept a clean work area and performed beyond expectations. I especially appreciated his zeal for old homes, and he took the time and trouble to find an old screen door and old hardware instead of going the easy route. He’s just terrific and I’ve recommended him to many clients.

STINE BUILDERS is owner Morgan Stine who helped me rebuild my front door at my loft and wound up building a pro-​level recording studio in my garage using all reclaimed materials. He was hit hard by the economic slow-​down and was ending his 17 year run as a contractor due to an owner not paying him on a 1800 sf house he remodeled in Echo Park that was listed as condemned!
He is very good at realizing your ideas from start to finish. In addition to his extensive knowledge of the construction industry that stems from his interest in the history of construction. He;s a plumber, painter, taper, framer, electrician… That’s custom design/​build construction – but he goes another step beyond that– he’s got 17 years experience building which he uses to keep costs down.
He installed the latest antibump deadbolts to keep the criminals out and reinforced my expensive front door – which I love – when all the other pro’s took one look and left.
I found him on the N.E.L.A. bulletin board where a post by Diane McDonald, a local Real Estate Agent in Silverlake gave him praise for the porch he built her… I was impressed with the end result and it ‘s still working perfectly.
