Expert Custom Home Services in Monterey

Services Designed for Performance and Peace of Mind

Building a house is an art and a science. Whether you are breaking ground on a new estate or breathing life into a historic cottage, the “bones” of the structure matter most. At Skyview Builders, we specialize in high-stakes construction where technical precision meets high-end design.

We don’t just build spaces: we engineer sanctuaries. Our services are built around the idea that your home should be as smart and durable as it is beautiful. We use industry-best practices and green products to ensure every project exceeds expectations.

Custom New Homes

Your vision deserves a foundation of excellence. We partner with you and your architect to create custom estates that are built for the unique demands of the Monterey Peninsula. From initial site prep to the final custom millwork, we manage every detail with owner-led precision.

We focus on the building envelope and high-performance systems. This ensures your new home is not only stunning but also quiet, energy-efficient, and highly resistant to the salt and moisture of the coast

Whole-House Renovations

Transforming an existing property requires a delicate balance of preservation and modernization. We specialize in deep, structural renovations that reimagine your home from the inside out. We strip away the dated and the damaged to create a modern, high-performance sanctuary.

Our team is adept at solving the “invisible” problems often found in older coastal homes. We update plumbing, electrical, and waterproofing systems to meet 21st-century standards while honoring the character of your original space.

Foundation Raising and Structural Retrofitting

In many areas of Carmel and Pacific Grove, building “out” isn’t an option. We help you build “up” or “down” by elevating your home. Foundation raising allows us to replace failing, salt-damaged concrete with a modern, reinforced system while adding entirely new living levels or garages.

  • Seismic Safety: We install modern hold-downs and shear walls to protect your legacy against earthquake activity.
  • Maximizing Space: Gain a master suite or a guest apartment without expanding your home’s footprint.
  • Fixing the Bones: We replace unreinforced masonry with engineered concrete to stop settling and structural decay.

Commercial Tenant Improvements

We bring our high standards of residential craftsmanship to the professional world. We help business owners in Monterey and Carmel transform retail spaces and offices into premium environments. Our focus is on efficiency and “No Surprises” management to minimize your downtime.

Luxury Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs)

An ADU should be an extension of your home’s quality, not an afterthought. We build high-end guest cottages, poolside retreats, and executive home offices that match the craftsmanship of your primary residence.

We navigate the complex local zoning laws and water credit requirements for you. Whether it is a detached suite or a garage conversion, we ensure your ADU adds significant value and utility to your property.

No Surprises

Every service we offer is backed by our commitment to radical transparency. We believe you should never have to guess the status of your project or the state of your budget.

  • Detailed Estimates: You receive a complete bid with clear line items, not a vague “ballpark” figure.
  • Real-Time Access: Use the JobTread portal to see daily logs, approve selections, and track everything.
  • Clean Sites: We treat your property with respect, maintaining a disciplined job site that keeps the project moving smoothly.
