We recently got the master bathroom remodel we've always wanted--but way sooner than we thought. We had some gradual water damage, and were worried that it was a lot, since we saw signs of it on the floor and the shower wall. We spoke with a few contractors, but Dave's calm, down to earth manner, and his vast knowledge told us he was the right one. His quoted price was fair as well, and the project stayed within that budget.
Once he and his brother Keith tore everything out, we found that the damage wasn't as bad as feared, and easily fixable. The installation of our old jetted tub, decades ago, was the cause. He replaced the damaged part of the plywood subfloor, and took measures to ensure that water would not be able to travel down or up through the subfloor. He also used products that created a reliable moisture barrier around the walls and floor of the new shower enclosure. I really appreciate his attention to the structural part of this job, the part that you don't see, but is critical to the success of a bathroom.
Once the structure was rebuilt, he then created a beautiful bathroom. Created a new shower enclosure, with a bench seat and wall niche (for soap, shampoo, etc.). Moved the drain to the center. Installed two kinds of tile on the walls, and a third one on the floor. Installed all hardware. Redid the entire bathroom floor tile. Installed a new toilet, with a bidet seat (hey, we decided to go a bit upscale). Installed a brand new bathroom fan (we wanted to get rid of steamy mirrors and protect our investment). The standout part of all this was his attention to detail, and fit and finish. Completely professional and modern.
Dave worked well with the Sacramento County inspector too, to make sure that everything is up to code--although Dave's work already is up to code. He didn't need to be told what to do. He also recommended a great glass company to put in the glass door enclosure for us, and a great resource for tile, Floor And Decor.
On a side note, Dave was downright fun to work with too. He's got a great sense of humor, which is a plus when you're working through something as invasive as a bathroom remodel. We ended up with a master bathroom that is a real showpiece. I will happily recommend David Wilson Construction to anybody who needs work done in their home.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Roman K.West Sacramento, CA02May 4, 2024
Needed some help with information and David was more than happy to help and explain regarding a future remodel of mine. Very professional and easy to understand. thanks David

Not only is David and his crew excellent craftsmen, they are outstanding humans. I hired David to update a bathroom and ended up hiring him to do a second one. I am beyond pleased with both. Excellent craftswork. Realistic expectations on timeline to complete. Very responsive to questions. Goes above and beyond. He even over bid the job both times and I ended up spending less than he estimated. He has a unique way of breaking down the bid, but once I understood his process, it gave me a lot of freedom in my choices and ultimately cost less on somethings than anticipated. If you are looking for a hard working crew that are honest, respectful and have an eye for detail, then I fully recommend David Wilson Construction. PS - will be having them back to do my kitchen in the future!

I waited. And waited.
David is so SO worth the wait!
Are you looking for a contractor? Combing through yelp, Angies list?? Even calling the contractor trucks you see while commuting to work? Just stop it, because I did that, too.
No one else had 1) photos of impeccable work (look at that tile perfection - it looks better in real life), 2) expertise for plan and recommendations (I'm no design major), and 3) integrity to do the right thing each step of the way.
Pricing wise, I was talked by salesman and pressured to sign a contract, "I work with my sons! "My tile guy is ready next week!", not with David.
David knew my goal with my home (not my dream home) and thankfully we were able to stay within budget. If you want to know specifics, message me. Be reassured, as an Asian woman looking for a good deal, I SCORED BIG TIME!
Follow my tip: get on his waiting list, and in the meantime, plan what you want. Because when your turn is up, he is a dedicated honey bee!!Helpful 4Thanks 1Love this 4Oh no 2 - JS A.Seattle, WA01123Jan 6, 2023
Pretty disappointed. After coming highly recommended from a co-worker, I suspect he's too busy and doesn't do enough of the work himself to have good quality control and follow through. The main remodeling work was sound and satisfactory, and the structural and technical work seemed good. Communication during the project was good and a lot of effort was made to get the right materials and help with choosing the right things. All of this I really appreciated. However, the finish work like painting, grouting, caulking and wall texture were often sloppy and rushed. I had to touch up a lot of bad painting and dings in places that were not as obvious at first glance. But we live here, so of course we'd eventually notice. It seems a shame to do such a poor job at the finish work after so much effort. I did give them numerous opportunities to fix things...and they did fix some things, but just didn't seem to want to bother to spend a little extra time to make the details right. The last time I contacted him, to fix the grout, he never showed up. Unfortunately, I won't be hiring them for our kitchen.

If you want to hire the nicest guy in the world, who also happens to be extremely skilled and knowledgeable, Dave is your guy. He got our bathroom done in a very reasonable amount of time, and was very conscientious of the fact that it was our only bathroom and the inconvenience that would cause us. He gave us sound advice and guidance throughout the whole process, and really valued us understanding what was going on and why. Which we REALLY appreciated it. He always took the time to explain something we didn't understand and was very patient.
Our bathroom was a moist dungeon before Dave got his hands on it. It didn't have a window, the tub was a plastic insert type of tub with a plastic bar inside. The floor was old vinyl that had seen better days. The toilet seat's lid was coming off. We hated it. And Dave worked his magic and gave us the bathroom of our dreams. I enjoy being in my bathroom now. Instead of taking the quickest shower possible I now take a long bath every single day. We can't thank Dave enough for his professionalism and skill. We have since hired him for other jobs around our house and have and will continue to recommend him to anyone in need of a good contractor.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Debbie R.Sacramento, CA9354Dec 11, 2020
Highly recommend David Wilson for remodels. He just finished remodeling my shower and I am very ...very... pleased with the outcome. I had been wanting to remodel it for some time now, but took my time deciding on the right person or company. What I liked about David, is that he did the entire remodel. I felt very comfortable with him being in the home when I was gone, not to mention that he entertained my cry baby dog who loved him to death. I had to literally lock my dog away because she would not leave him alone.
David recommended a few places to get the materials and I ended going with Floor and Décor. They were very helpful and helped me with the design and materials. Very different from what I had originally had in mind.
One other thing, his price was less than the other bid I received. You may have to wait awhile for him, as he is busy, but I didn't have a problem with that because I wanted the right person. Best to call him instead of through Yelp. I didn't get a response through Yelp, but immediately when I called.
I have posted some pictures of the before and after of my shower remodel.
I just love it.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Colten S.Sacramento, CA14206Jan 6, 2020
Called about getting a shower door installed, David called me back the next day with a referral.
He seems professional and reliable with realistic time expectation, all of which are hard to find with looking for contracts.
I'll definitely reach out to him when we have larger projects.Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Michelle S.San Francisco, CA01414Oct 15, 2019
This was long overdue, but my house looks amazing! Thank you David! David and his brother worked long into the night to complete the work on my house so I could move back in as quickly as possible. They totally transformed my living room. They tore out a wall and rerouted a gas line and electrical switches, fixed my subfloor and added beautiful baseboards and door casings. David even fixed the window casing without me even asking to have it match the newly done door casings. I'm in love. Thank you!
PS, don't mind all the clutter around the house in the "after" photo.Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Alyssa S.Folsom, CA28234Feb 5, 2018
Words cannot begin to describe how wonderful Dave and his brother Keith are. They have completely calmed our nerves about a bathroom remodel. Talk about high quality people! I will forever recommend David to anyone that needs work done on their home. He has created one happy customer. These guys know what they are doing!
