F John La Barba Construction

Called labarbra to get a fence replaced, the team was quite rude and unprofessional and the fence line came out completely uneven. Called back to try and have them redo the work and still have not gotten a reply. I would highly recommend steering clear of this place

If your’e looking for detailed, creative, precision, work from someone so precise, professional and artistic that there will NEVER be a corner cut … then La Barba Construction is right for you! John will go over and beyond to make all your dreams come true & his finished product will live up to your highest standards. This man is a true artist and his past work proves it! Not to mention he’s very warm friendly and a pretty funny guy. You wont regret hiring La Barba Construction, ask any of their previous customers. The Best in Santa Cruz by far!

John is the rare contractor who is an artist, has a keen interest in history and structures, and is a skilled technician. He remodeled The Buttery, when we expanded the business 6 years ago and did a marvelous job.
He’s fun and charming and a joy to work with. When problems arise he can always resolve them.
I wanted to double the square footage, make it look as if it was always one business and not be closed one day. Electricity was added, water lines moved, walls put up, the dish washing area was expanded and we weren’t closed even an hour.
All that is great and important, but here’s the other thing. He updates his billing every week and documents everything he does. You always know exactly where you stand financially.
Really, he’s in a class of his own. I can’t recommend him more highly.

I have been working with LaBarba Construction for over 15 years. Being in the building industry I can honestly say that John goes above and beyond to make sure that you have a structuraly sound, perfectly finished project whether it is a small bathroom or large commercial space. He has extremely strong work ethics and is honest and fairly priced. His business is built on trust and integrity. I wish the had 10 stars!
