Mr.D's Construction Services of San Diego

Highly recommend Mr Ds! Great quality work. Very professional and always gives accurate bids. Very easy to work with.

I'm thrilled to share my fantastic experience with Mr. D's Construction Services. Don's professionalism and attentiveness were exceptional. He listened to my needs, always arrived on time, and swiftly provided effective solutions. His team completed the high-quality project with impressive speed. The pricing was reasonable too. I wholeheartedly recommend Mr. D's Construction Services for their top-notch work and customer-centered approach.

Wanted to share photos and give a shout out to Mr. D’s Construction and his crew. This is the third time we’ve used this company and they never disappoint! Mr. D. also renovated my parents entire ground floor which turned out beautifully 10yrs ago. Don Martin is the owner and he has a lot of knowledge and patience. There are so many decisions to be made (counter materials, shower materials, paint colors, appliance sizes and locations as well as cabinet sizes, locations etc.) he had great suggestions on where to start selecting all of these items that go into the upgrades and renovations. Mr. D shows up to the job on a regular basis, checking on progress, bringing samples and delivering materials. He and his crew (special shout out to Ruben) understand when you are unsure and occasionally change your mind.

It was a pleasure working with Don and his team. Don came out to the house, we discussed options and he sent us a bid. He provided options for where to shop for our new cabinet, sink and mirror for the bathroom remodel. His team was nice, professional and always on time and worked quickly and efficiently. If we have another project we will definitely call Mr. D. Nice to have someone do what they say they will do and it looks great.

I had Don come out for an estimate and he was very fair and honest with me. He gave me all possible options and explained the cost. He didn’t push to do unnecessary work. Don is trustworthy and I would highly recommend him for your job.

Mr. Ds was an incredible experience in fixing up our new home. From painting to baseboards to electrical changes and improvements, Don, Rueben and all of the workers were professional, courteous and helped make the whole process run smoothly. We would highly recommend this company and these wonderful people. We were kept abreast of the process every step of the way. We will definitely be using them for any other home improvement we have. Just tremendous service.

Mr. D's Construction just completed a renovation of my upstairs including the remodel of two bathrooms, removal of popcorn ceiling, retexturing and painting, and painting of the entire space. The work was completed as scheduled and within projected budget. All of the members of his staff were professional and very pleasant to work with. Don was always involved and responsive and the process was absolutely wonderful. The quality of the work was excellent and I relied on the recommendations of Don and his staff to assist with planning and selection of colors/materials. I would not only high recommend this contractor but plan to use them again in the near future to remodel my downstairs.

This is the second time I have hired Mr. D's construction to help update my 1982 built house. Back in 2014, Don and his team retexturized my bedroom walls, installed ceiling lights, and added crown molding. They were so easy to work with, and their work was such high quality that I knew I would be using them for any future remodeling needs — fast forward five years. The first thing I said when I bought my house 20 years ago was that the fireplace has to go. Well, it never went until a month ago. I could not be happier with the finished project. As always, the guys were a pleasure to work with, and the finished work speaks for itself. In particular, I would like to thank Ruben for always seeming to know what I am looking for and his fantastic ideas. Thank you so much to Don and his team. I look forward to hiring you again to finish the rest of my house!

I can't say enough good things about Mr. D's Construction. Don and his crew are top-notch pros! Our project was done on time, on budget, and looks beautiful! Totally professional workmanship. I've had some bad experiences in the past with other contractors, so I was nervous at first. Now my only regret was that I didn't know about Mr. D's when we started our remodel three years ago. I'm sure he would have saved me a lot of money and time. You won't regret hiring Mr. D's for your job!

My husband and I met and hired Don, Mr. D’s Construction, after he came over and listened to my wish list. He and I walked through my home so he could see what and where I wanted improvements. Don offered other great suggestions as well that I never considered. Don was very easy to work with as I had no idea where to start. The work area of our home was cleaned up each day. Don met me at several companies to help me with selections for our home improvements. I thought I would need to hire a professional for ideas; Don listened to my wants and needs for our home function and offered ideas which made sense to me. There is no job too small for Don. If he isn’t able to complete the task he knows someone that will be able to do it. The first time-line came in at 6 weeks so we had to postpone for two months because of the holidays. His team miraculously finished in 4 weeks.

I hired Mr. D's Construction upon discussing my plans to upgrade my home. Don listened to my plan and gave suggestions on things that hadn't come to mind. Don wasn't pushy and understood that I needed to do this upgrade in stages. The guys that work for his company are very reliable, careful, neat and work well in unison to complete the job on time. We're getting ready to start the last phase of the inside of my home and can't wait to see the completion. After the 1st of the year we'll see how we can improve the outside of my home.

Mr. D’s previously painted the exteriors of two of our homes. We bought our current home well aware that it needed a lot of updating. We called Don for an estimate to start the updates by removing the popcorn ceiling texture and painting the exterior, living/dining room and the master bedroom. Don promptly responded to my request for an estimate. While he was here, I asked him to also work up estimates for a down-to-the-studs new kitchen and master bathroom. Thanks to resources such as Houzz, we generally knew what we wanted, and Don and head builder Ruben added helpful suggestions. Don sent back proposals promptly and the numbers were good. We accepted the painting proposal first. I work from home so I could tell the painters Ariel and Jose worked well together and took great pains to do an excellent job. They were courteous, carefully protected our belongings, and left things tidy at the end of each day. (That turned out to be true of the entire crew. Even our neighbors commented favorably on the crew.) Seeing the painters work to get things perfect, we decided to accept Mr. D’s proposals for our kitchen and master bath. Mr. D’s was able to handle whatever this old house threw at them. For example, there was quite a bit of termite damage and wood rot in the eaves, patio cover, and part of a big beam. Ruben, Will, Scott & crew handled it. Their electrical subcontractor replaced the heirloom electric panel and the kitchen’s aluminum wiring. Mr. D's also updated our guest bathroom (because the other updates made it look so bad!) with drywall repair, retexture and paint (I tore off most but not all of the vintage wallpaper), new showerhead, faucets and counter top, and beautifully refinished the existing cabinet (thank you, Jose!). Mr. D’s also installed items that we provided, such as light fixtures, mailbox, hall bath mirror and medicine cabinet. Don referred us to a window & doors guy who did a terrific affordable job for us. The nicest counter guys in San Diego did the shower stall and master and hall bath counters and sinks. And the kitchen and master bath cabinets by the sub? Worth every dollar--especially the soft-close hinges and lacquer finish. Mr. D’s redid almost the whole house (the laundry room was semi-OK as is) because we liked their work, we couldn’t do as nice a job ourselves, and frankly, we didn’t want to live through more remodeling in a few years. It’s done now—woo hoo! As to timing, if my notes are correct, Will & Mike started demoing the master bath on April 30, the kitchen demo was on May 14, and everything was done by July 3. There were a few glitches and a lot of dust but it was all worth it in the end. We’re very pleased about the outcome. Mr. D’s can be proud of their work. One general comment about Don, Ruben and crew – no matter what came up, they had a terrific “can-do” attitude, good ideas, workable charges, and the know-how, resources and high standards to do the work right in a timely manner. One more thing – on the punch list day, Scott mentioned that they fixed something they’d accidentally broken. I hadn’t noticed it but they fixed it because they knew it wasn’t right. How’s that for integrity?!
