Client Testimonials

“HGTV  “Curb Appeal: The Block” 

”With HGTV’s stringent schedules and tightly controlled budgets, I ask a lot of the professionals who work with me on “Curb Appeal: The Block”. Bill and his team managed to build one of our more ambitious projects on time, on budget, and most importantly, with positive attitudes and smiles on their faces - every day on the job.  Truly a pleasure to work with, I would recommend W. Isaak Construction, without hesitation, to anyone with an eye for quality and value. I  very much look forward to working with him again.” ”

“You and your guys are really knocking this out. I have to say, I’ve worked with a lot of builders and remodelers over the years and the way Issak Construction communicates with their crew is so much more even tempered and respectful than others in the trade. It makes me feel good about everything we are doing here.”

“Pacific Property Development, Novato 

“Bill Isaak’s company has worked for me on four projects over the last 10 years. They have ranged from whole house remodeling, new home construction to townhouse subdivisions. I have been very happy with the results, that is why I have continued to use them. When problems arise (and they always do in construction) they have handled them quickly and cost effectively. I am a tough critic to please (I too am a General Contractor). I will continue to use Isaak Construction.” ”
