The Solano County firm GoldenWest Renovations, formerly known as Goldcrest Designs, in Benicia CA is run by owner Jim Pawloski, who has more than 40 years of experience and has built a local reputation for trust throughout Solano County and Contra Costa County. We interviewed Jim to find out how what GoldenWest Renovations has been doing that has contributed to their reputation for trust.

Trustworthy Estimates from GoldenWest Renovations in Benicia CA

We've heard how some contractors take advantage of unsuspecting customers by giving dishonest, rock-bottom bids to get the job. Then, in order to make a profit, those shady contractors submit change orders that add thousands of dollars to the job, leaving homeowners frustrated and sometimes without enough left in their budget to finish the project.

Jim Pawloski has heard of this too. "We recently went to look at a job in Oakland where the homeowners had run out of money in the first phase of the job because of add-ons the contractor didn't tell them they needed until after the job was started," he shares.

To avoid this type of financial stress, GoldenWest Renovations talks with their clients ahead of time and lays out accurate bids based on the scope of work and all the materials needed to do the job right. Jim explains, "I personally don't like change orders because they're hard to explain and they don't make customers feel confident that they're being treated fairly, so we go into every project knowing we've covered all the bases beforehand. Our customers like that, because we don't have a problem explaining pricing and the work we're going to do. They know they can trust us."

His crew is excellent, and they do beautiful finish work. That's what I like: a nice finished product. I'm so pleased with the work they did for me."

Jim Pawloski is also an FHA housing inspector and he assists customers and other homeowners in securing remodeling loans. "FHA loans are a vehicle that homeowners can use to get remodeling money. I've done hundreds of these loans since 1996 as a contractor and as a consultant for other contractors. I'm a facilitator and I help people put their documentation together to submit requests for the loans and I'm a facilitator who works with homeowners and other contractors with these loans."
