We help homeowners and businesses across the Bay Area build, remodel, and upgrade — with transparent pricing, real permits, and a team that shows up when we say we will.
IronNest started in San Francisco and has grown through referrals, not advertising. Every job we've done has been a chance to earn the next one — and that mindset shows in how we work. We don't subcontract blindly, we don't cut corners on prep, and we don't give you a number until we've actually looked at the scope.
You deal with one project manager from first call to final walkthrough. That person knows your project, handles the permit office, coordinates the trades, and calls you when something changes — because something always does on real construction work.
No pressure. No obligation. We'll just walk the property with you.
Recent projects across San Francisco and the Bay Area — kitchens, ADUs, commercial buildouts, and exterior restorations.
Tell us what you need. We handle every trade, pull every permit, and give you a fixed price before we touch anything — no coordination nightmares, no surprise invoices.
Full project management from design to delivery. We coordinate every trade, pull all permits, and keep your project on time and on budget.

Check project costThe owners bought this 1962 home knowing it needed everything. Over 11 weeks we opened the kitchen to the living area, rebuilt both bathrooms to the studs, replaced all knob-and-tube wiring, and refinished the original oak floors. The owners moved back in on the date we promised.
A retired couple wanted rental income without disrupting their home. We designed a 640 sq ft one-bedroom ADU on the rear of their lot, pulled all permits, built in 14 weeks, and had their first tenant paying $3,400/month within 30 days of final inspection.
A 1910 Edwardian flat with a kitchen that hadn't been touched since the 1980s. We kept the original ceiling height and millwork, added a full-height pantry wall, installed custom shaker cabinets with a waterfall quartz island, and rebuilt the master bath with a walk-in shower and heated floor.
A Series A startup needed a space that didn't feel like a co-working template. We built out 3,200 sq ft with seven glass-fronted offices, a large open collaboration floor, two conference rooms, and a proper break room — all ADA-compliant, all on a 10-week schedule so they could welcome their first SF hire.
An 1898 Victorian that had been repainted so many times the detail was nearly gone. We stripped the wood, repaired eight rotted sections of trim, rebuilt the bay window cornice from scratch, and applied a three-color period scheme in Sherwin-Williams Emerald Exterior. Neighbors have been stopping to take photos.
The original 1978 comp shingle roof was 20 years past its useful life. We tore off three layers, replaced rotted decking in two sections, installed ice-and-water shield at all valleys and eaves, and finished with Class A fire-rated shingles. Passed Oakland Building first visit, no callbacks.

Get a realistic Bay Area cost range in 30 seconds — then request a written quote from a licensed contractor.
Not all contractors operate the same way. Here's the honest breakdown — what we do, and what to watch out for elsewhere.
Most contractor problems start with vague estimates and poor communication. Here's exactly how we avoid both — from the first call through the day you move back in.
You describe the project. We come out, take a look, and ask the questions most contractors skip. No commitment. No pressure.
You get a fixed price, a clear scope, and a real timeline. What's included, what's not, and why. No ballpark estimates.
We handle permits, scheduling, and materials. You don't chase down crews or manage moving parts.
We start on time, keep you updated, and don't mark anything complete until you've walked through it with us.
Verified ratings from Google and Yelp. Real reviews from real San Francisco homeowners and business owners.
We call back within one business hour — not three days from now. You'll get a written proposal with a fixed price. Not a range. Not a ballpark. A number you can plan around.
