San Carlos Stairs has been working on a project on a developer build on our block. This company has consistently created unsafe conditions on our street. They have parked in cross walks, blocked sidewalks, blocked access to the street, blocked visibility for cyclists, pedestrians, including many school children on the block. Despite city and police involvement, they continue to create unsafe conditions in our neighborhood.

This review is coming late, but we had Jesus redo our second and third floor staircase, railings and steps in June of 2018. He was our third contractor we interviewed for the job, and I knew from the beginning that I was talking to a true master of his work. He is very personable, friendly, and easy to talk to. He was on time with his project, and kept to our budget. I highly recommend Jesus. We couldn't be happier with the finished product. (Ignore ugly chandelier :-))

Jesus is a master craftsman. He built beautiful new stairs in my home that are really like a work of art. Part of the new stairs are made out of maple wood that I had stained...it looks as good as high quality furniture. Jesus did everything he committed to, on time and for a very reasonable price. I was shocked at how quickly he got this project completed...and it's because we works hard until it is finished. I wholeheartedly recommend Jesus and San Carlos Stairs...you will throughly enjoy your new stairs and they will enhance the value of your home. Thank you, Jesus.

I used San Carlos Stairs many years ago. Jesus built an entirely new staircase for me, as mine was very poorly done when my house was built. Everything everyone here has said is true. Jesus is a true craftsman. He does amazing work. He was recommended to me by a friend who is VERY picky about her contractors and their work! Whenever there was a choice of one thing or another, he would stop and ask me which way I wanted it done. It turned out even better than I thought it would. He is definitely a perfectionist! Jesus made what seemed like an overwhelming project very easy and stress free. He is a true professional who does work that is very hard to find these days! And..he only does stairs, though he is a qualified carpenter who could easily build an entire house! He knows his stuff! If you are thinking of using San Carlos Stairs, I guarantee you won't be sorry!

Jesus, owner of San Carlos Stairs, is a true craftsman. His work creating our brand new staircase is magnificent! I couldn't have imagined such a gorgeous outcome; he exceeded my expectations for a staircase by creating a truly regal look and feel to our stairwell. From start to finish, he was a professional who helped me make informed decisions. Not many folks in this business take time to educate the client the way he does. He is obviously proud of his work...and now I have the pleasure of enjoying the fruits of his labor every day. I would highly recommend San Carlos Stairs to even my pickiest of friends!

Wow. I'm not sure I have words to describe Jesus' craftsmanship. It is amazing. We asked him to create a set of stair railing for our two story house. He spent hours on making sure the posts were exactly what we wanted. The detail in his work was incredible. And he put a bend in the handrail that just blew our minds! Don't just take my review for it, see the picture I've posted. It is not often that we come across a hard-working, honest and amazingly artistic craftsman. Will definitely be recommending Jesus to everyone we know.

Jesus is a total craftsman. He replaced the skirts on our existing stairs and they look incredible. Each piece was hand cut and shaved to fit. The skirt had to be curved on a special jig, the new outside radius adds presence to the stairway. Each bullnose was hand cut and custom fit at our job site. We would have loved to have gone the full Monty and had wooden stairs fitted but time constraints prevented this. However we are exceptionally happy with San Carlos stairs and the high quality work the undertook. They billed correctly and for the amount of work they did the value was great. I recommend San Carlos stairs without hesitation.

We had done some remodeling and once everything was done we realized that our stair case needed to be updated too. We figured out what we wanted and next was trying to find a trusted company to hire to do the job. I asked for recommendations on Nextdoor and someone recommended San Carlos Stairs. Well they were absolutely right. San Carlos Stairs came out and gave us a free estimate along with their suggestions. We decided to go with their ideas and now we have a beautiful stair case. Their stair case is beautiful and they do quality workmanship.

We recently purchased a house in Burlingame and wanted to replace the stairs/railings. We hired Jesus at San Carlos stairs for his advice, expertise, and price. We could not be happier with our new stairs. I would recommend him to anyone.

We recently moved into a house with some old stair railings that were pretty ugly and really unsafe for kids because they were spaced too far apart. We contracted Jesus and San Carlos Stairs to replace the metal railings with a beautiful wood railings, posts & balusters. We are extremely happy with the job for a number of reasons: - Jesus was prompt and neat. - We had talked to some other stairway installers but were struggling with what design to pursue. Jesus stood out as the one person who really helped advise us on what he thought would be most aesthetically pleasing, without ever being pushy or prescriptive. His advice proved to be invaluable for us. - Jesus has a beautiful showroom. If you're considering getting staircase or railings done, check it out -- we ended up going with some of the designs from his showroom. - We worked with Jesus and his son. Both were very courteous and helpful. - We had about ten different contractors perform work on the new house, and the railings were the one item that consistently drew compliments from the other contractors. We wholeheartedly recommend San Carlos Stairs.
