I don’t seem to be able to take down my review posted on 11÷15÷14, but I have just learned(through an e-mail from Derek Kulda that through my own inadvertence I didn’t receive until yesterday) that he was NOT the general contractor for the project at 2805 Naples Avenue, Half Moon Bay, CA, and that although he had his sign up in front of the house, the owner of the home was his own contractor and that Kulda and Sons had only the limited role of «renting» some crewman for some labor for the homeowner. So although the HORRIBLE mess is still there, it is not the fault of Kulda and Sons, but rather of the homeowner. I apologize for the posting. I assumed because the Kulda & Sons sign was posted in front of the home they were the contractors. I truly believe they were not. I asked Unilocal to take down the review(I tried, but I do not believe I was successful), but if it remains I ask any readers of my review to disregard it. I sincerely apologize. Jane Gorman

Kulda and Sons built our house to the highest standards in every capacity. From a somewhat OCD perspective I am so pleased with the precise nature and build quality. Having evaluated several other building styles the quality of Kulda’s work is evident in every detail. We search for people that add value in our daily lives and Derek and 7 Sons do just that by thinking of build aspects that don’t dawn on homeowners or architects. The finished product not only embodied our vision but contained details that facilitated further expansion and or easy additions. Just one example is the beautiful driveway that actually was laid on top of conduit that allows easy passage of irrigation or electrical additions without disturbing the pavers. The thought and insight into living and livable space that this builder brings to the project are in every way more valuable than architects and homeowner ideas combined. My husband and I could not be more pleased with any aspect.

Kulda Construction contracted to remove and replace deteriorated structural pilasters; and design and replace flashing, gutters, expansion joints, and stucco so as to assure water tight integrity. They arranged for all required building permits, and negotiated to provide required ADA upgrades consistent with the value of the remedial work. They developed a novel strategy to enable the client to hire sub-contractors and purchase materials directly, saving the client the considerable expense of markup; they charged the client directly for the expense of ordering materials and supervising the subcontractors. They maintained a safe worksite, leaving it broom clean each night. Kulda kept the owners appraised of unexpected conditions found, and developed economical solutions with a minimum of wasted time. They were a reliable and proactive contractor, their labor force was well-skilled and diligent, their on-site supervision was empowered to make decisions on the fly, and they executed the job in as professional a manner as I have ever experienced. Highly recommended. jsutro

We purchased a house in a short-sale and wanted to do a quick remodel of both bathrooms before moving in.(The previous owners were obviously HGTV and DIY addicts that couldn’t stay away from painting stripes and spray can flocking.) We asked several local contractors for quotes and Derek Kulda is the only one who actually took the time to take measurements, talk to us and walk through our different options. In fact, he’s the only one who came back with a proposal that was within our budget and exactly what we wanted. Well… two small bathroom remodels turned into a brand new house — new floors, plumbing, electrical, paint, bathrooms, walk in closet. Obviously we went way over budget and it took longer than anticipated, but the reaction we’ve received from everyone has been incredible. Our home appraised for over $ 125k more than what we paid and we couldn’t be happier. Derek and his team took the time to listen to us, walk us through our options, get all the proper approvals and permits, present scenarios where we could save money/cut back on costs and present an amazing final product. His team was efficient, clean, courteous and professional. And when I got antsy on the time line(my expectations were way off base), Derek’s team came in on weekends to help finish the job quickly. I highly recommend Kulda &7 Sons Construction.
