Introduction

  • Welcome to alvarez-builders.com, the website of Alvarez Builders, Inc., a licensed residential builder serving the San Francisco Bay Area with custom homes, remodels, additions, and accessory dwelling units. This document sets out the terms and conditions governing your use of this website.
  • Definitions: in this document, "we", "our", and "us" refer to Alvarez Builders, Inc. (CSLB License #1065484), while "you" refers to users and visitors of this website.
  • Acceptance of terms: by accessing this website you agree to these terms in full. If you disagree with any part of them, please do not use the site.

No offer, estimate, or professional advice

  • Information only: everything on this website, including project photography, service descriptions, timelines, and any figures or ranges, is published for general information and illustration. It is not an offer, a bid, a quote, or a guarantee of price or schedule.
  • No contract is formed here: submitting the contact form, requesting a consultation, or exchanging messages with us does not create a contract for construction work and does not oblige either of us to proceed.
  • The signed agreement governs: all construction work we perform is governed exclusively by a separate written contract executed by both parties. Where anything on this website conflicts with that contract, the contract controls.
  • Not professional advice: nothing here is architectural, engineering, structural, code-compliance, permitting, legal, or financial advice. Building codes, zoning rules, and ADU regulations vary by jurisdiction and change over time, so always confirm the current requirements for your property with your local building department and qualified professionals.

Project photography and results

  • Our own work: photographs presented as our projects show work completed by Alvarez Builders. They are examples, not a promise that your project will match their design, materials, finish level, cost, or schedule.
  • Every project is different: outcomes depend on your site, permitting, design decisions, material selections, and conditions outside our control. Any timelines or budget ranges mentioned are illustrative.
  • Testimonials: client testimonials reflect those clients' individual experiences and are not a guarantee of the results you will experience.

  • No unsolicited commercial contact: our contact form and published contact details are for genuine project enquiries. Using them to send us marketing, spam, or automated submissions is not permitted.
