What do recent reviews say?

Malpica delivers strong results on outdoor work like decks and exterior projects, often completing jobs in days and earning repeat business. Kitchen and interior work appear less common in reviews; quality swings sharply between exceptional (thorough, permits handled, crew pays attention) and frustrating (material mix-ups, crews unfamiliar with scope), suggesting project fit and crew assignment matter heavily.

  • honest and detail-oriented
