Review for Barney Gaxiola

We hired Barney to be our GC/Contractor for our remodel of 796 Gathering Ct prior to listing for sale. We had several projects to complete in the house.
Master Bath Faucet Fixture replacement (x2)
Jack & Jill Bath Faucet Fixture replacement (x2)
Subfloor repair outside of Master Shower due to moisture intrusion.
Subfloor repair outside of Jack & Jill Tub/Shower due to Moisture intrusion.
Subfloor repairs on Master Bath/ Jack & Jill Bath Toilets (not secured).
Vanity countertop replacement in Jr Suite.
Mirror replacement in Jr Suite.
In wall medicine cabinet replacement in Jr Suite and Master Bath.
Realignment of double doors into Master Suite and upstairs addition room.
Fixture replacement on all bathtub/showers (x3).

Barney tackled all of these jobs with determination and diligence even though every aspect of the plumbing was extremely difficult due to pipe connections that wouldn't come free for replacement. He was amazing with that!

The subfloor repairs, we couldn't believe how it turned out, and our floor installers were extremely impressed as well.

We also, during our home inspections found cracks in our foundation. We were having having trouble getting a contractor out to address the issue because everyone was saying the underside of our house was 'muddy' and flooded due to the large amount of rain we had in the winter of 2022. Barney went above and beyond by putting on a crawl suit, going under the house and doing a face-time call with the contractor to show him the issue, as well as prove the area under the house was completely dry. Doing that cleared the concern of the foundation contractor and we were able to get that fixed in a jiffy.

The end result of Barney's efforts in our house was a super excited Realtor, many, many positive comments during the Open House and private walk throughs, and ultimately a clean slate for the buyers that made it a truly 'turn key' sale above our asking price.

If you are thinking about hiring Barney for your job, I can attest that he has all the knowledge, experience, and skill, for whatever he will face, and as I said with our 32 year old plumbing, the determination to get the job done without delays and to make it look brand new.

He also went above the call by cleaning all 3 shower/tub enclosures and removing the old caulking and installing new caulking. Such workmanship had 4 potential buyers comment about how we 'replaced' the enclosures, even though we didn't.

Way to GO Barney!

Barney G. has been my go-to contractor for years. He manages every aspect of a rebuild to a simple fix and replace. He replaced our sagging deck in no time. The concrete footings had to be replaced and stabilized. The new deck is so solid, I have total confidence in having a number of people on it without fear of collapse. We had a few single pane windows replaced (wood frame was dry rotted). He replaced the bad wood, reframed for the new windows and installed before we knew it. We have a few other house projects slated for this year and I know who we will be calling. Thank you Barney!

Barney Gaxiola installed a Rinnai tankless water heater and 2 recirculating pumps in our home. We benefited from his extensive knowledge and experience. We appreciated his hard work and friendly attitude during cold, windy, rainy weather. Another giant plus: Barney saved us 1/3 off the quote a different company gave!
