Second-generation.
Still family-run.
Sonoma Build Group has been building and renovating homes across San Francisco and Sonoma County for over 15 years. We're a small, experienced crew — and you'll work directly with the people running your project.
How we work.
We don't hand projects off between a sales team, a design team, and a build team. Seain leads every project from the initial site visit through final walkthrough — which means the person who understands your project best is the person making decisions on site.
That's not a pitch. It's just how a small, serious crew operates. We take on fewer projects than larger firms because we refuse to spread thin.
Where we work.
Our work splits between San Francisco — where we've handled everything from Victorian-era seismic retrofits to full gut renovations in Pacific Heights and the Haight — and Sonoma County, where we've built ground-up on hillside sites from Glen Ellen to Warm Springs.
Both markets reward the same thing: contractors who understand the terrain, the permits, and the building stock. That's 15 years of hard-won knowledge we bring to every project.
Second-generation licensed contractor with 15 years leading residential and commercial projects across the Bay Area. Seain is on every job site and involved in every decision — from structural engineering coordination to final finish selections.
Manages billing, scheduling, and project cost tracking — and serves as your direct point of contact for anything that happens off the job site. Allen keeps projects financially transparent from first estimate through final invoice.
Manages hiring, team culture, and the design process from concept through specification — ensuring every project reflects both the client's vision and Sonoma Build Group's standard of craft.
