Before & after
Drag to see the transformation
Full Exterior & Landscape Transformation
Stucco repair, new roofline trim, black-framed windows, rebuilt entry steps with railings, plus fresh turf, planters and paver walkways with landscape lighting.
Waterproofed Bathroom Tile Build
From cement board and liquid waterproofing membrane to a fully tiled tub surround with a recessed niche, new exhaust fan and finished paint.
Hardwood Floor Refinish
Sanding, staining and sealing that transformed worn floors into a warm, mirror-like finish ready for furniture.
Wrought-Iron Gate Restoration
Refinished cedar panels and fresh black iron coating restored this entry gate to match the home's stone architecture.
Kitchen Remodel
Cabinet refacing, new countertops, backsplash, lighting and fixtures turned a dated kitchen into a designer space.
Exterior Paint & Trim
Fresh stucco coating, black trim and a modern entry fence gave this home a crisp, contemporary street presence.
Stucco & Fence Refresh
Power washing, stucco touch-ups and a fresh coat brightened the façade and made the black fence details pop.
Who we are
Craftsmanship you can stand inside
CHRETE is a California general contractor built around a simple idea: the quality of a home is decided in the details nobody else photographs — the framing, the waterproofing, the substrate under the stone. We build those layers to the same standard as the finishes on top.
Our in-house carpenters, concrete crews and project managers work under one roof, so schedules hold and communication never gets lost between trades.
- Licensed, bonded & insured
- Written workmanship warranty
- In-house crews, no subs guesswork
