Testimonials
"I was referred to Dillion Construction by a friend, who thought very highly of his work. I was looking for a construction company to earthquake retrofit my home. I called Bill and he came up with a plan to retrofit my large unfinished basement. I was satisfied with the plan he proposed and had a retired contractor review the plan and the cost. He confirmed my opinion, that it was a comprehensive plan at a reasonable price. Bill and his crew emptied the contents of the basement and got to work. The project came in on time and on budget.
This past Winter I noticed water leaking into our living room and basement. Bill diagnosed the problem and gave me two alternatives to seal the leak. One was caulking with a sealant or a more extensive and expensive repair, which involved removing some of the decking. I chose the later. Our leak problem has been resolved.
I unequivocally recommend Bill and his crew for construction and renovation.

"Bill Dillon converted our half-bath into a full handicap bathroom with a wheel chair accessible shower. They are able to incorporate all of our needs and ideas into a workable plan. They secured all of the necessary permits and inspections. In order to do the job, Bill had to relocate the bathroom fixtures, water heater and laundry. They found space, to add a full sized pantry cupboard, to the back porch.
"We have been very pleased with the quality of workmanship as well as, that of their subcontractors.
"Bill is licensed contractors, and skilled practitioners, of all the building trades. They stay up to date, on the products and their applications, and want their clients, to be fully aware of the pros and cons of alternative products, tools and techniques. They set high standards for themselves and sub-contractors. They work quickly and carefully."

"After we moved into our home, in 2003, a friend recommened Bill Dillon to us. Our home's electrical system was a mess, a combination of knob & tube, switches mounted up-side-down, live wires dead-ending behind walls.
"Many of the rooms were protected by makeshift fuse boxes. Bill laid out a plan for us and we gave him the go-ahead.
"As a man, Bill is polite and clean in personal appearance. As a contractor, he explained, in detail, what he was going to do; he left the site clean each day and he finished on schedule. We would recommend Bill Dillon to anyone that is seaking these qualities in a general contractor.

"Bill Dillon of William E. Dillon Construction has done work for us on both our residents in San Carlos and on commercial real estate. Bill is a responsive, helpful, competent and a skilled general contractor. He is extremely customer oriented doing whatever it takes to insure he exceeds the customer's expectations. As an example on a remodel at our residents, it was Bill who recommended we remove the existing eight foot ceilings and create cathedral ceilings to compliment the rooms expanded size, his recommendation was right on. If we had not done as he recommended the room would have looked like a cave, instead it is beautiful.
"Bill, being the perfectionist, also insisted that at his expense he bring back the sub who had done the ceiling taping as Bill wasn't at all pleased with the way the seams looked. In fact we were quite satisfied, however Bill insisted. When the ceiling was to his satisfaction Bill came back on a Saturday to repaint the ceiling all at no extra cost to us. Bill's reason for wanting the ceiling redone was that the work his sub did was a direct reflection of his workmanship and it was subpar. This spoke volumes to us about Bill's commitment to not just meet, but exceed expectations.
"During the work performed, attention was given to keeping the work area clean, managing the dust, by walling off the other rooms in the house and protecting the existing floor by putting down not just drop cloths, or paper, but plywood to protect them.
"Unlike other contractors we have worked with, Bill provided a turnkey approach, providing recommendation on the designer, engineer, obtaining of the permit and recommendations to reduce cost. Additionaly, Bill was on time, worked every date at the site and met our deadline expectations.
"As mentioned, Bill also has done work on commercial property for us, as a result of the confidence we have in Bill we have given him approval to do what he deems necessary, allowing us to step back from the day to management of these projects, the results we have been very pleased with his managing of these projects.
"From our experience and what we know about Bill we are 100% confident in recommending Bill Dillon for your next project."

"In order to accommodate an aging family member, we elected to push out our garage on the front of our home and build two bedrooms with walk-in closets, a bath and a deck plus storage space. But then we thought the inconvenience of the addition would not be with the need.
"After much consideration, we select Bill Dillon for the job.
"Now, years later, we know we made the right choice. The work was done without disturbing our lifestyle and the addition proved to be sensational. It is a unit that although separate from our main living area, has give us the extra quality of life that we now have become accustomed to.
"If in the future, we should undertake another project like this, you can be sure it will be Bill Dillon that we will call."
