Melo Construction

While the work was completed in acceptable time, and quality, the price quoted and charged were very different. As an out of town owner of a rental unit, I was shocked when the bill was about 3 times more than the «probable» cost estimate. I was told an accurate estimate couldn’t be given until the job was under way. The cost per hr, per worker was discussed. But, I didn’t expect a two man job to need four workers! When I questioned this I was told one guy was getting supplies. (What about guy #4???) Having a father who was a contractor, I am not naïve, so I questioned this, and a small amt was deducted… big deal. The hourly charge did not correlate to the amount of time the renter said they were there. I would NOT RECCOMMEND this company unless you can be there to supervise the time and actual number of working employees. I paid the bill, and did not pursue the issue. (The renter was going to be moving out… the house was in dire need of a complete renovation… which it received… I employed a different, more transparent contractor).

Paul stuck with us from the design phase to completion. We added 1000+ sqft to our home plus a great patio. The Melo family are great, they worked with us on what we where looking for, high vaulted ceilings, super built-​in entertainment center where you cannot see any wires. The Melo Team found some issues with existing wiring in the recent updated kitchen where the «other» guy did not do the electrical up to standards even though the inspector signed off 6 years ago. They also fixed some issues that would cause problems in the future, the steal drain pipes where replaced and the clay sewer pipes where upgraded to pvc. The water pipes where fixed, now we have super water pressure (before our front yard needed 3 zones with less than5 heads per zone, now 1 zone with 8 heads water the front) The Melo Team gave us a new house with in budget (before some upgrades), the key is make sure you and your wife talk to your contractor together. The Mrs. Spoke to Paul about some upgrades and racked up some extra costs (I have to admit the upgrade where worth it, but we ate Top Romin for a month) did I say it was worth it.
Paul even came by 3 months later after completion when we had some questions on lighting.
For sure give Melo Construction a call for all you home enhancement needs big and small.

Melo Construction is a great general contractor he painted my home & built me an awesome patio. I would recommend him to all my friends!

Perfection. Focus on detail. Clean, fast, and reliable. This company has completely renovated my house and my parent’s home. The quality of their work is remarkable. I would recommend them for any construction. They have been voted best in Tracy for years running and there is a reason for that. They build for their clients what they would expect to be built for themselves.
