Calecco Construction

Recently finished a project with calecco in December. We did a 500 square foot addition to our house along with the whole home renovation. It was a very large project, probably largest project will ever do all our house. With that in mind we were very thorough on picking out the right contractor, we had heard horror stories from friends about shady contractors and did not want to be on that list.
I’m happy to say that everything went well and smooth on our project. Besides a few minor issues we had which are taken care of we were totally happy with the work and progress of calecco construction. Even after we moved in we wanted a few things changed and Andre was very happy to do so.
Just a heads up to fellow Unilocalers, calecco was one of the more expensive contractors we interviewed the reason we decided to go with them is simply because we felt comfortable, we didn’t want to try to save money and they at the end not have a project we are happy with. All in all I believe it was totally worth the investment and am very happy with the final product.

My wife and I bought our first home and this was our first time doing any renovation work– so my wife and we’re looking for someone that could handle everything headache free.
Andre (Calecco) was that and more. He basically went out of his way to make sure we were happy the entire time. He handled all permits in Pasadena which is not easy– and my wife and I didn’t even have to think of it.
We definitely recommend Andre!

Much gratitude to Andre and his team for all the work they did on our home in the middle of the hot summer. We got bids from 3 different contractors and Andre by far was the most professional and responsive, which is why we went with him. Their team always kept on schedule, which I hear from others is rare. We had a bathroom added to our home with a few other minor additions, and everything turned out beautifully.
Andre always went above and beyond, even if it wasn’t a part of the contract /​responsibilities. For example, unrelated to the remodeling we were doing, a pipe in our yard cracked and he helped us fix it. We’ve recommended him to our friends who are also planning to remodel soon.

I was long over due on doing a addition/​remodeling project on my house. I decided last September 2014 to get the ball rolling. I was refereed to CALECCO by a neighbor of mine which had a kitchen remodel done by them and was very happy. I had Andre come out and I went over what my plans were and what I had envisioned (which was apparently not allowed by our city due to set backs and a few other regulations). Even though I was initially bummed out, Andre was quick to offer solutions that met the cities guidelines, which meant part of my addition would be 2 stories, to allow room for my master suite.
I decided to hire the Architect he recommended (who I was also very pleased with). They prepared the plans worked out all the details with me and got approval from the city. The scope of our project was; adding a master suite, enlarging the family room, kitchen remodel, powder room remodel, new driveway and some other misc. work.
Thats when Andre and his crew started our project. Off course since my house is a 60 year old house there was some unexpected surprises but Andre handled everything very well with minimal cost.
I was pleased with every aspect of there work, from customer service to the quality of the work preformed. One thing I was really impressed by is the attention to details. Andre would spend so much time talking to me about little design elements, how to position the lights, where to put switches, all things which I thought were pointless at the time. But now I realize all those little things really do add up to make a great finished product.
All around it was a pleasure working with Calecco, I have heard so many contractor horror stories and am super glad I made the decision to go with them.
Big thank you to Andre and the rest of the team at Calecco.

Recently had work done on my new property in Santa Anita. I was greeted by Andre on the day, the work carried out was excellent. I really do not have any negative things to say about Andre and his staff! I have recommended Calecco to all my family and friends. Andre looked after my brother-​in-​law and also did a great job at his place!
Professional Staff, Clean Work, Finished the job on time!

We needed to have some major work done on our house, allot more then a minor renovation. The scope of work was briefly as follows; demolition of about 500 sq.ft. of our existing house, structural reinforcement of what was left of our house, a 1500 sq ft addition including adding a second floor on a portion of our existing house, gutting out everything from plumbing to windows, moving our garage back about 50 ft. and a bunch of other work. So pretty much a large size project.
I just moved to California so was very very careful on vetting my contractor. I called a few people and was later referred to CALECCO by a friend of mine who had done a project with them and was pleased.
Andre came by, took my plans and made a photo copy and called me back in about a week to review things.
This is when I knew he was my guy, he met with me and had a list of suggested changes (keep in mind this was before I had given the project to him). He had different recommendations from layout of bathrooms, to location of lights, a few structural changes (which helped bring down the cost of framing). He also presented his estimate, which was a right between the 2 other estimates I had received.
I decided to go with CALECCO and got to say, best decision ever. They finished on time, didint ask for additional money, and were very detail oriented.
I would highly recommend these guys in a heart beat.

They have done excellent job in replacing the skylight. Also, they fixed the roof broken shingles. They are very professional. I would hire them again for future jobs

Thank you very much for your great work. Very good company 5 star contractor woth 5 star employees. He treat us like his own family member he has a really inteligent worker that they know their job very well. Their are always on time they finished my house on time. They made my house looking like a mansion. The price that i paid to the company it was worth it. It was worth it comparing to other contractors and other contractors work. Thank you very much to calecco company for your great work. I highly recommend this company to everyone thank you agean

Great experience from beginning to end. This was the only company to answer all my questions and provide a great price. i would recommend Calecco Construction to anyone who needs their house bolted.

I wanted a stand-​alone bathroom built next to my pool. I interviewed three companies before deciding on CALECCO. I found the contractor, Andre, to be very honest, knowledgeable, and accessible. He has utmost integrity and was genuinely interested in getting the work done right.
The entire project went very smoothly. Andre worked with the city in regards to the permits. We picked out the tile together. I furnished the fixtures for his team to install. Like all construction, we ran into a few unexpected issues, which were resolved in a timely manner. For example, the initial pedestal sink was a little large so that the door would brush against it when opening. Andre quickly replaced the sink with a smaller one. The workplace was kept clean, which was important since the subs were working by the pool. In the end, the workmanship for the bathroom was of solid quality.
The cost of the project was very competitive and payment for the project was fair. There was no contractor haggling about up-​front payments of any sort; there was only the usual small deposit.
Overall, I had an extremely positive experience with Andre and would work with him again in the future. I would recommend him and his company to anyone looking for a top-​notch general contractor.

Andre and his crew did a great job on our house remodel. He was always helpful and
Answered all my questions. He took time out of his schedule to come help us out several times even prior to us hiring him. What can I say, the work turned out great. Would definitely call him back for future work.

Andre and his crew do great work. They show up on time and do clean work. They were also very helpful in providing some great suggestions that made my remodel look even better than I imagined. I’ll be calling them again very soon for some work I have in the back.
