Why Local Expertise Matters

Haight-Ashbury is not a typical neighborhood. Here's why we're suited to work here.

Victorian & Edwardian Foundations

Homes built 1890–1920 have distinct foundation settling and uneven subfloors. We recognize these patterns and accommodate them in layout and installation, protecting 1907-era craftsmanship.

Permit & Historic Compliance

Many Haight properties sit in or near historic districts. We handle permit paperwork and coordinate with San Francisco's Historic Preservation Office to ensure work meets local guidelines.

Street Parking & Access

Permit parking on Stanyan, Ashbury, and Haight Streets requires careful planning. We time deliveries and coordinate street-level work to respect your neighbors and neighborhood regulations near Buena Vista Park and Golden Gate Park.

20+ years experience working with San Francisco homes. Over 500 tile and countertop projects completed in historic neighborhoods.
