About Mrakovcich Construction

Mrakovcich Construction is listed on Silicon Valley Home Network under General Contractor, based in Pleasanton.

Hiring a general contractor in Pleasanton

In California, a general contractor running a project with two or more unrelated trades needs a B General Building license from the CSLB. Projects like these need permits, and structural work usually needs an engineer's plans. You can look up a contractor's license at cslb.ca.gov.

Questions to ask

  • Get a written contract with a payment schedule tied to finished work. In California the down payment can't exceed 10% or $1,000, whichever is less.
  • For an ADU, check your city's ADU rules early. California limits what cities can require, and many cities have pre-approved ADU plans that save time.
  • Ask who pulls the permits, who handles inspections, and who hires the engineer and architect.
  • Ask how change orders are priced and approved, and how the schedule is updated.
  • Look up the license, bond and workers' comp on the CSLB website before you sign.

What affects the price

  • Size and scope
  • Site work: grading, utilities, foundation
  • Design, engineering and permit fees
  • Finishes and fixtures
