Coast Construction Company

Over 40 years, since 1983. We have completed thousands of jobs in Alameda and Contra Costa Counties, and have been serving the broader Bay Area throughout.

Absolutely. Many owners use the reconstruction as an opportunity to upgrade finishes, layouts, or design features. We manage the cost separation correctly so it doesn’t complicate your insurance claim.

Plans typically take about four weeks to prepare. Permitting time varies by city and jurisdiction. Once permits are issued, we provide a construction schedule and stick to it.

Building code upgrades are typically covered under the building ordinance provision of your policy. We document and submit these costs to your insurer as part of the supplement process.

This process is often time-consuming. We handle it for you — the paperwork, the endorsements, the follow-up. You don’t need to manage it yourself.

We bring in structural engineers when plans require it. Architects are optional but welcome — we are happy to work with yours if you have one.

Rain can affect exterior and framing stages. Once we are weather-tight, we work consistently. We build weather delays into our schedule estimates for exposed phases.

We work for you. Our contract is with you, not the insurer. We maintain cooperative professional relationships with adjusters and carriers, but our loyalty is entirely to our clients.

Some contractors overpromise. Always get commitments in writing — especially anything that will be in the contract. If something is promised verbally and not in the contract, assume it won’t happen.

With some contractors, yes. Our contract is structured specifically to avoid this. We fund work while waiting for insurer and mortgage payments so your project keeps moving.

Yes — and you should. Insurance policies have multiple sub-limits that operate independently. How costs are categorized affects how much of each sub-limit is available. We pay careful attention to this throughout the project.

Not always. Coast is right-sized — lean enough to focus experienced people on your project, large enough to handle complex, high-value rebuilds without red tape or hand-offs to junior staff.

No. We focus exclusively on reconstruction. No divided attention, no conflicts of interest with mitigation or contents companies.
