Apartment Complex Maintenance
- The Problem
These apartments had outdated bathrooms and kitchens, single-pane windows, worn carpets, old paint, and dated appliances, as well as weathered exterior balconies, stairs, and walkways.
- The Solution
For each project, Rockaway Construction’s employees excel in tenant communication, are very detailed with project management, and utilize value engineering procedures for cost savings. Plus, our relationships with reliable union sub-contractors, engineers, architects, and city officials help streamline each project and process.
Hospitals, Schools, and City Buildings
- The Problem
ADA compliance for ramps, bathrooms, and doors can present an overwhelming challenge for any type of public building, especially if it involved expanding your current space, or working within grant funding and tight budgets. Often, these projects require long overdue upgrades with exteriors that have deteriorated because of weather, time, and erosion.
- The Solution
Rockaway Construction always starts each project with value engineering to create a feasible budget. Our company’s leaders are insured and bonded to eliminate potential employee problems. We’re more than familiar with red tape situations. And because our carpenters and laborers are dependable union contractors, we can certify payroll to keep a project on track and on budget.
Large Construction Companies and Construction Management Firms
- The Problem
We’re so well respected among our peers that we’ve collaborated with them as sub-contractors with some of our largest competitors. In some cases for ground-up multi-unit homes and facilities, they’ve needed expert master carpenters; in others, they needed finish workers.
- The Solution
Rockaway Construction has a deep background in project management. That’s why we’re able to efficiently employ over 25 skilled workers, ranging from laborers and apprentices, to carpenters and painters. Over a dozen of our carpenters specialize in finish work like trim, crown molding, millwork, and more. Plus, our employees and sub-contractors travel throughout Alameda, Solano, Sonoma, Napa, San Mateo, Santa Clara and San Francisco Counties.
Residential Homes
- The Problem
We frequently meet families who have been in the same home for many years, even a few generations. When they realize that there’s not enough space for their growing family, but they don’t want to move, they know that they have to create a budget without knowing the latest trends or the most recent building codes.
- The Solution
Because we’re a family-run and family-owned business, Rockaway Construction specializes in developing spaces that can be utilized in many ways, especially to accommodate your in-laws or grandchildren. We start with value engineering and close relationships with architects and interior designers. Our employees also attend classes and conferences to stay in front of trends. We have decades of experience building homes in Northern California, so we know what’s safe, what’s the law, and what’s what for earthquake retrofitting.
