Blue Dog Construction and Renovation - Quality construction in the Bay Area

On time" and "on budget" are what we pride ourselves for and is at the core of our mission statement. Located in the Bay Area, California, Blue Dog Construction & Renovation operates out of Berkeley.

Andrew J. Gregor, founder and owner, was an architect in Wiesbaden , Germany, where he ran his own office for 18 years. Between 1987 and 2005, his architectural practice succesfully completed more than 4.5 million square feet in both residential and commercial projects.

Since its inception, Blue Dog Construction has completed a number of both commercial and residential projects here in the Bay Area and can provide a comprehensive reference list.

Our work ethics are of the highest standards and we are intent on delivering the highest quality work available for your budget. Our workforce comprises a group of top level carpenters and supporting crew that excel at what they do.

2009 was a hard year for the construction industry but we survived it and completed a number of projects. These included a high end bathroom and kitchen remodel in Berkeley, a 630 square foot basement addition including foundation work in San Rafael and the addition of a guest bathroom in an existing house in Moraga. We are beginning 2010 with the intent on continuing our drive to build greener and more sustainably. We also completed a small studio project with a living roof. The building itself was made out of 90% recycled materials. With the recession perhaps slowing or even coming to an end, we are confident that 2010 will be a fantastic year and are looking forward to a number of new projects that we have lined up.

There are a number of different approaches to 'Green Building'. Utilizing lumber certified by the Forest Stewardship Council as being harvested from sustainable forests is a first big step in fulfilling the goal of a green building. More information can be found about this on our page on 'Building Green.'

There are a number of green insulating products that are green and sustainable. Saving the environment does come with a price tag, but with many products, it may not be as high as one thinks!

Blue Dog Construction supports Survivors International, a non-profit organisation that supports and helps victims of torture who arrive in the Bay Area. Its Executive Director Dr. Uwe Jacobs is one of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation 2009 Community Health Leaders Award recipients!
