Velero Construction

We had a major remodel done by Tom and his team at Velero Construction. Our project involved the conversion of our garage space into a residential unit and there were a lot of challenges along the way, including changing contractors and our engineer. Velero was a real pleasure to work with and I really appreciated how clearly they communicated and how they addressed the various obstacles we had to contend with.
We were very pleased with the end result.

Velero did a wonderful job on our commercial project. This involved raising up and reinforcing our onsite trailer, excavating and treating the damaged and rusted rebar of our parking lot, and patching and waterproofing the entire parking structure. We also had to remake part of our existing metal stairway and build a special housing over some of our mechanical elements. It was a very complicated job and Velero really stepped up and delivered. Highly recommended.

Velero Construction did an excellent job on our project. The project had many technical challenges including a 36 foot steel beam, masonry reinforcement, and retrofitting existing framing. We changed our garage into an office/living space and reinforced the building to be seismically safe. They had to fit a large steel beam perfectly into an existing roof, fabricate metal posts, and other tasks like welding, framing, and sheetrock. They worked well with the engineer, special inspectors, and building department. There were a number of challenges and setbacks from schedule changes, building department obstruction, and plan revisions. Velero did a great job accommodating all of these issues and keeping the project on track.

very pleased with the work performed

These guys were great to work with, particularly for someone who likes to know exactly what's going to be done, why, and how. Their contract was clear, and payments were reasonable. The project was started and completed promptly, with an excellent result. It was fun!

Velero Construction did a wonderful job renovating our home in San Francisco. There were a lot of challenges with our project, including issues with our permits and some hurdles related to the pandemic, and they really helped drive things forward when we had setbacks Overall, we were extremely pleased with their attention to detail and the overall quality of their work. Tom is reliable and responsive and we would absolutely work with him again.

Velero Construction rebuilt the back stairs and decks of our building in San Francisco and I had a very positive experience with them. The job entailed a lot of excavation, foundation work and carpentry. They were very professional and the quality of their work was excellent. The project had some challenges working around the time of Covid, and I really appreciated their flexibility and ability to work through problems to get things finished with the pandemic going on! I would recommend them very highly.

Velero Construction did a great job on my project, which involved renovating portions of my home in Oakland. They were very professional and courteous, they managed my expectations well and finished the job on time. It was a pleasure working with them and I would definitely recommend them to others.

Tom rebuilt a section if our deck, as well as repaired and repainted it all. He is very professional, shows up when he says he will be there, let’s you know what’s going on constantly and does everything he says he’s going to do. He did beautiful work, and even added some extra touches to make sure that the deck would last a long time. The job came in on budget, and followed the timeline. Although weather cost a few extra days, Tom was great about explaining what was going on and why. We loved working with Velero Construction and will absolutely call him if we need another project done!
