Gold Coast Design

Gold Coast purchased the house behind me in 2013 to flip it and then sell. While reno was being done, I saw that they were just going to cosmetically paint the fence that separates the two back yards, We had tried to contact the previous owner about sharing the cost of replacing the fence, as it was in terrible condition. She had heavy junipers that were pushing on the fence from her side and the fence was broken, dry rotted and termite eaten. I approached the crew and was given the contact info for the project manager. I contacted him about replacing the fence, cutting down the junipers and that I would be agreeable to paying half the cost. Gold Coast came back to me with a charge of $ 900.00 to replace the fence. We worked out an arrangement where I could pay them in two installments. I observed the fence install and asked the installer if the fence posts were treated as they did not appear to be so. As it turns out, he blatantly lied and told me it was a new process! Not only weren’t the fence posts treated, they were two feet too short, sitting in only a few inches of concrete and in some cases just in the soil, which is rocky and sandy. I learned all this when the fence blew down at the end of January in the storm that rolled through town. The other fences on my property, which are many years older, sustained no damage. I contacted a contractor to repair the fence, discussing this with the backyard neighbors, and then decided to contact Gold Coast for compensation. Via email, I sent the original work order and a picture of the downed fence.
The cost to repair the fence is $ 1500.00. After waiting two weeks for a response, the owner, Dave Gash, is offering me $ 300.00! I learned from my contact person at Gold Coast that they are no longer doing business with the subcontractor who did the reno; however, that is not my problem. The responsibility falls upon Gold Coast to make good on the inferior and shabby work that Gold Coast represented as a properly installed new fence. Gold Coast apparently won’t take responsibility for this and I won’t accept $ 300.00. I contacted The Turko Files and I hope he will help me pursue this. Now, it is a matter of principle and Gold Coast has none! Social media is a great outlet for my frustration!

Byron and Gold Coast did an amazing remodel at a property of mine in Pacific Beach. Their sub contractors were managed very smoothly and the quality of work was first class. The job was finished on budget which is not the norm in the industry. I highly recommend them!

Gold Coast just helped my husband and I buy and remodel our first new home. From day one Gold Coast over delivered on their service in project management and quality in product. Gold Coast helped us from cabinets, granite, tile, and all of our finishes to make our dream home a reality. We could not be happier with our home and working with Gold Coast. Please see some of the pictures of our new home.

NOT HAPPY about a CREEPY cold call I just got! «Mike» from Gold Coast Design called my home number and asked for my husband, who wasn’t home. He then asked if we plan on doing any remodeling and told me my ADDRESS! I asked «Who are you?» and he told me «Mike from Gold Coast.» I then asked him «How do we know you?» and he HUNG UP ON ME. A man on the phone knows where I live, and I always ask what his connection is, of course. I called him back several times to tell him that his behavior is highly inappropriate and scary, and he never answered my call. He could have answered my concerns, it would have just taken him a minute out of his day.

DO NOT GIVE THIS COMPANY ANY BUSINESS. One star is too generous. These assholes have called my phone three times this week. Each time I’ve asked not to be contacted again. The final time, the representative was extremely rude with me. When I called him back he hung up on me repeatedly. I did some research and there are many other people that have had similar experiences to mine. I will be filing a complaint with the Better Business Bureau.
