He’s a rare find and I would definitely recommend him.Posted on carina riveraTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I just got my drive way done and my floor done. The quote they gave me was a great price. They didn’t seem pushy at all. They quoted me a time frame and usually they take longer. I was really pleased with the time frame and the employees were really clean. I highly recommend Gil and his team. They were so professional and quick.

Why Room Additions Are Perfect for Santee
Here’s the thing about Santee – you’ve got some of the best value in East County. Great schools, family-friendly neighborhoods, and homes with actual yards. But maybe your house was built when families were smaller or before everyone worked from home.
Moving to get more space? In this market? That’s going to cost you serious money, and you might end up farther from the things you love about East County.
A room addition gives you everything you want without the moving truck. You keep your great neighbors, your kids stay in their schools, and you still have that East County lifestyle with room to breathe.
Plus, Santee room additions are smart investments. The housing market here is strong, and adding quality square footage typically increases your home’s value by more than what you spend. So you’re not just getting more space – you’re building equity.
Here’s what we see constantly: Families who thought they needed to move to Poway or Scripps Ranch realize they can get everything they want right here in Santee for way less money.
- Second story additions – Perfect for Santee’s larger lots and valley views
- Kitchen bump-outs – Turn cramped cooking areas into family gathering spaces
- Master suite additions – Get that spa-like retreat you’ve been wanting
- Great room expansions – Open up your living space for modern family life
- Guest bedroom additions – For visitors who want to stay longer in East County
- Home theater rooms – Create the perfect entertainment space
What Makes Us Different (And Why It Matters)
We’ve been doing room additions long enough to know what can go wrong. Here’s how we make sure it goes right:
Honest pricing from the start. No “estimate” that mysteriously doubles once we start working. We give you a detailed breakdown of exactly what everything costs, and that’s what you pay.
Look, we’ve all heard the contractor horror stories. They start your project, then disappear for two weeks. They tear up your house and leave it that way. They hit you with surprise costs that weren’t in the original “estimate.”
We don’t operate that way. We treat your family and your home with the respect you deserve.
- We stick to our schedule – When we say we’ll be there, we’re there
- We minimize disruption – We know you still need to live in your house
- We communicate constantly – You’ll never wonder what’s happening
- We protect your home – Dust barriers, floor protection, the works
- We work reasonable hours – No 6 AM construction noise for your neighbors
Our founder Gil learned something crucial in his jewelry business: Trust is everything. One satisfied customer tells three friends. One unhappy customer tells everyone. That’s why we focus on making every single project a success story.

The question isn’t whether you can add on – it’s what you want to create.
Maybe it’s a master suite that takes advantage of those valley views. Maybe it’s opening up your kitchen so your family can actually hang out together while dinner’s cooking. Maybe it’s a home office where you can work without background noise from the rest of the house.
