I recently hired Appetite for Construction, Inc. to remodel a bathroom in my vacation/party house. The job involved the demolition of all existing fixtures and flooring, installation of a heated flooring system, tiling the floor and shower, and the installation of a new vanity and toilet. It is important to note that they listened to what I wanted, and they delivered. Mike and crew arrived on time and were total professionals throughout the entire remodel process. The cost of this work was very reasonable and the quality of the work was outstanding. Mike performed the critical detail work himself. Special care was taken with the heated tile floor. He painstakingly made certain that each tile was placed in the optimal location to maximize the differing textures, colors and patterns for the best overall effect. All phases of the remodel were conducted in a manner to ensure durability as well as aesthetics. I hope to bring them back soon to remodel the second bathroom, kitchen, living room and game room.

Mike is a great contractor, adding a second bathroom with ceramic tile steam shower and tankless hot water in about 6-8 weeks. He does excellent work (the shower glass contractor commented on the great tile work). He sets expectations, listens/explains well, is sensitive in delivering news that will require a change in plan, and has multiple suggestions for changes so there are informed choices. He and his crew clean up at the end of each day, and were all pleasant to be around. I have two dogs and was able to work out a plan to keep the dogs calm and out of the way; it helped that the crew are dog-friendly. I am in the planning stages of the next project I'd like to propose to Mike.

After buying a serious fixer-upper, I hired Michael Mcguire to help with me pretty much everything. The first two projects were a a full kitchen and bathroom remodel. As a first time homeowner, he went above and beyond helping me understand my options on a budget without sacrificing quality. I was so happy with his work and level of service, I hired to him back to redo my bar and build a deck in my backyard. He is my go-to person for all future projects.

We were lucky enough to find and hire Michael McGuire as our general contractor. The scope of our job was quite large, as it was a complete home remodel. Our remodel included a new addition, new kitchen, new bathrooms with a complete new interior and exterior design plan with modern upgrades to each space. Michael worked with our architect to design a new home that fit both our design aesthetic and our budget. Michael not only assisted in the design process but carried out every vision perfectly. His communication with us throughout the entire process was excellent. As plans changed and unexpected issues arose (which was to be expected), Michael always had options lined up that were not only satisfactory but timely. We get compliments regularly by people walking by our home. We couldn't be happier with all his interior finish work as well. He is not only an excellent general contractor but a true craftsman.

Michael has done several jobs in my San Francisco Condo. He was very attentive, ensuring that we were comfortable with what he’d do based on our budget and preferences. He has completed an office remodel, kitchen remodel (down to the studs), creation of a laundry room, soundproofing of a ceiling, built-ins in the living area, and repurposing a built-in hutch. I am more than happy with all of the work he has done. Michael is professional, has an artistic eye and is very easy to work with. I would highly recommend him for any job, large or small, that you may be considering. I am a repeat customer for a reason!

Mike renovated my very small San Francisco bathroom. He had some good ideas for how to maximize my small space and in the end I ended up with more storage space that I thought possible. He's super laid back and not difficult to be around which is a plus when someone is in your house everyday. The work was good and I thought he was honest with what he charged. I was very happy with the end result. My kitchen will be next someday and I'll definitely be giving Mike a call.

Mike and Appetite for Construction did some excellent remodeling in our 100 + year old home in the SF. We weren't sure what direction we wanted to take and Mike was able to help us figure it out and get the job done ahead of the deadline. Now we have a beautiful new kitchen and open area that we love to come home to! Thanks Appetite!

Mike was our GC for the build out of our cafe. He was very easy to work with and did great work at reasonable and fair rates. He's one of the few contractors I've dealt with where I don't have to worry about the legitimacy of what he is billing me for. Everything is always straight forward and makes perfect sense.
