BB & B Builders remodeled this kitchen.

BB & B Builders Inc. provides comprehensive planning, design, and construction services for residential and commercial building projects throughout the Bay Area. In addition to working on everything from custom homes to hotels, schools and wineries, the fourth-generation Marin company works closely with architects, engineers, and interior decorators and designers to handle clients’ pre-construction design needs.

President Rob Buckle says BB & B Builders’ ability to handle every step of its clients’ building projects gives the company a distinct advantage over its competition. “We have everything we need to complete projects from the ground up, including drywallers, electricians, carpenters, plumbers, painters and roofers. Regardless of what a job calls for, we’re prepared to efficiently handle it.”

As part of its customer-oriented business approach, BB & B Builders provides every project with in-depth plans and proposals that include 3D designs, plan views, elevations, and sections. “We like to give as much information as possible for the job at hand,” explains Mr. Buckle. “By making our proposals clear and descriptive, we ensure our clients know exactly what to expect.”

“We strive to fulfill all our customers’ building needs by utilizing our many resources and excellent teamwork to provide high-quality results at competitive prices. We’re very particular about making sure every job is done safely and correctly, and we believe in the importance of being honest and reliable throughout every step of the construction process.”

Find a contractor with experience that’s relevant to your specific project.

Many building contractors aspire to broaden their experience and capabilities by taking on jobs outside of their comfort zones, but in order to get the best results from your construction project, it’s best to only work with highly experienced craftspeople that possess specific skill sets. When it comes to hiring a contractor, make sure you determine exactly what you want before making a final decision. “A good contractor will be able to account for all your needs and wishes in the initial design plans,” says Rob Buckle, co-owner of BB & B Builders Inc. in San Anselmo. “Don’t overlook this part of the process—even if you perceive a task to be simple and straightforward, it may have subtle implications that only an experienced professional can recognize.”

Mr. Buckle points to deck construction as an example of a project with numerous variables that should be handled by a professional with specific experience. “There are two types of decks: on-grade, which means on the dirt, and raised,” he explains. “Even if you like one more than the other, the choice might not be entirely up to you. If your house is on a slab, for example, you probably can’t have a raised deck because it can’t be higher than the grade of your house. If you want an on-grade deck, you need to consider factors such as drainage, surface texture, and materials like concrete slab and brick. It’s not a simple job, so if you want a product you’re going to be happy with for 10 years or more, you need to work with a good contractor who has experience dealing with these types of variables.”

After verifying a potential contractor’s state license and insurance coverage, it’s a good idea to ask for references that are directly related to your type of project. All references should be relatively recent to reflect current staffing and capabilities. Try to visit a current jobsite to get a close perspective on how the company works and to confirm its quality of workmanship.

Few construction companies earn the prestigious Diamond Certified award, which means they've been independently rated Highest in Quality. Even fewer can also claim a trio of owners who have more than 60 years of combined industry experience, but that's exactly the case for BB & B Builders Inc. "Our vast amount of experience and diversity of building trade knowledge really make us stand out," says co-owner Rob Buckle. "My father, George Buckle, has more than 40 years of experience as a civil engineer, and Jason [Guillory, vice president] and I have 20 years of general construction experience. Between the three of us, we truly have the ability to handle all types of projects for our clients."

BB & B Builders has been providing comprehensive planning, design and construction services for residential and commercial building projects throughout the Bay Area since 2004. In addition to working on everything from custom homes to hotels, schools and wineries, the fourth-generation Marin company works closely with architects, engineers, and interior decorators and designers to handle clients' pre-construction design needs.

Unlike less experienced construction companies that strive to reduce their operating costs by using sub-par materials and only meeting the bare requirements of local building codes, BB & B Builders focuses on providing the highest quality work for every client, regardless of how much extra money it has to spend. "We never cut corners just to finish a project quickly," confirms Mr. Buckle. "When we shop for products, our first priority isn't price; it's getting the right products that will last for years and ensure our clients' happiness."

Another distinguishing attribute of BB & B Builders is its dedication to providing its clients with upfront pricing and highly detailed contracts, which greatly reduces the need for potentially costly change orders. "We like to stay firm with our prices, so we make sure each customer completely understands the scope of work before they sign the contract," explains Mr. Buckle. "At the end of the day, their satisfaction is the most important aspect of our business."
