Commercial contractor in Oakland, California

What does Apex do as a commercial contractor in Oakland?
In Oakland, Apex is the general contractor for multifamily, HOA, hospitality and commercial owners: roofing, building envelope and exterior painting, balconies and decks, parking structures, unit and amenity renovations, site work and insurance reconstruction. Most work is done with the property occupied, run from our Pleasanton office.

Do you have a local team in Oakland?
Yes. Oakland runs out of our Pleasanton office, about 20 miles away, with our own superintendents on site. Specialty trades come from a prequalified local bench, and we tell you which is which before you sign.

What does building in Oakland usually involve?
Much of Oakland’s multifamily is older wood-frame stock, where envelope, balcony and structural repairs tend to arrive together. Bay Area permitting and inspection timelines vary city by city, so we confirm the governing jurisdiction’s process at bid rather than at mobilization.

Does SB 721 or SB 326 affect my property in Oakland?
California’s SB 721 (apartments) and SB 326 (condominium associations) require periodic inspection of balconies, decks and other elevated elements, and the repair has to satisfy the inspector’s report as well as the owner. We scope the repair or upgrade to the report and document it for the file.

How quickly can someone walk a property in Oakland?
Usually within the week. The Pleasanton office is about 20 miles from Oakland — a drive, not a flight.

Does Apex handle storm and insurance reconstruction in Oakland?
Yes. Around Oakland the main loss risks are wildfire smoke and ash, winter storms and water losses. Apex provides emergency stabilization, claim documentation and the full rebuild on one contract, so nothing is re-bid between dry-out and reconstruction, and residents are kept in place wherever the damage allows. For an active loss, call 866-404-4603.
