Client Words

When the Hutton Parker Foundation purchased a very visible office building on State street and decided to make it an arts center we knew that the contractor that we would select would have to understand not just quality construction, but also how to work with the tenants moving into the building. We decided on Young Construction and it ended up being a wonderful partnership. We were pleased and the tenants were all happy. I feel confident recommending them to anyone needing construction done.

Re-Building historic adobe structures in the Pueblo Veijo district downtown Santa Barbara is a very challenging endeavor. The solution to those challenges was having Young Construction as our contractor. Young Construction has the respect and relationships with the Historic Landmarks Committee and the City of Santa Barbara Building Department which made a very difficult process run smoothly. Having a job site in the downtown area where set backs are tight, parking is difficult and traffic can be a problem; Young Construction managed those issues with great ease. The results speak for themselves; these Historic Houses of Merit that Young Construction built have been featured in several publication boasting of the quality of workmanship and design.
