Your Home Deserves Better Than a Horror Story
You've heard them. The kitchen remodel that took eight months instead of three. The contractor who cashed the deposit and disappeared. The budget that doubled before the drywall went up. These stories are so common in San Francisco that a lot of homeowners just live with the kitchen that doesn't work and the bathroom from 1970 — because the alternative sounds worse.
It doesn't have to be that way. A remodel should be exciting, not exhausting. You should know exactly what it costs before it starts, exactly how long it will take, and exactly who to call when you have a question. That's not a radical concept — it's just how Gadget Construction operates.
Over 12 years and 500+ projects, we've remodeled homes in every corner of San Francisco — from 1920s Victorians in the Mission to mid-century ranches in the Sunset. We know the quirks of old San Francisco housing stock. We know which walls are load-bearing before we open them up. And we know how to navigate SF's DBI permit process without losing months to paperwork.
