 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Doug and crew were great at remodeling our bathroom for a roll-in shower. They overcame small issues with changing all the plumbing. On time and price didn't change or go over. Recommend highly.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. All I can say here is you'd be pressed to find another contractor in Calaveras County that does this quality of work.    Doug and crew replaced the flooring in our entire home (1500 sq ft) along with installing a storm door and running a vent for our dryer.    They even had to replace all the floor boards.    Doug was part of the process from start to finish.    We love Mother Lode Builders and as long as they are around, they will be our one-stop shop for any of our home repair needs.

We call them for repeat work on any work requiring a clean professional look. Owner is friendly and keeps in nearly constant communication, calls us back to make sure we're happy with the results. They're popular and busy, so keep that in mind.
