"Great company if you need a deck built! They were very prompt and the work was top notch. When we were looking for a company this one was highly recommended and they were right. Federico returned my phone calls and texts very quickly, something you don't always get with construction companies. We love the deck and will definitely use this company for any other projects we may have in the future."

What Clients Say
Unedited reviews from our Google Business Profile.
"Amazing new bathroom remodel! The marble looking tiles, awesome rainfall shower with a handheld sprayer, and sleek floating vanity make it feel luxurious. The smart toilet and glowing mirror are such cool touches too. Thanks to Fred and his crew for their amazing work: super professional, fast, and they will totally nail any customer's vision. I'd recommend them to anyone!"
"We recently hired Schaffer Escobar Construction for a home renovation project involving drywall installation, custom cabinetry, luxury vinyl plank flooring, and more after restoration work was complete. From start to finish, their team was professional, punctual, and highly skilled. The drywall work was flawless, with smooth finishes and precise attention to detail. The crew was communicative, kept us updated, and completed the project on time and within budget. We couldn't be happier with the results."
"Schaffer Escobar Construction is great. From framing and drywall to trusses, flooring, paint, and tile. They handle large and small jobs very well. I have recommended them to multiple friends and they have done decks, siding, drywall, painting and flooring for my friends and I. The owner, Federico, even adjusted our estimate and removed cost when the job did not entail as much as he thought it would. Give them a call if you need something built or fixed and they will take care of you well!"
