Fast, Reliable General Contractor Across San Bernardino
Need a General Contractor in San Bernardino who actually shows up on time and manages the whole job? You’re looking at a market where a mid-century remodel can uncover surprise wiring, structural fixes, and city-required code upgrades the moment walls come open. That’s what we handle every week, from 92401 to 92404. Call (855) 600-3192 for a free estimate and a written scope of work before we touch anything.

Our team, led by Ruben Montoya, serves the entire San Bernardino valley and the foothill neighborhoods pushing up toward the San Bernardino Mountains. We know the difference between a job on a 1950s tract home near Del Rosa Avenue and one on a canyon-side lot where fire-hardening rules change the spec before we even order materials. That’s not textbook stuff. That’s doing the work here.
Why Stallion Contractors Is San Bernardino’s Preferred General Contractor Company
Homeowners in San Bernardino keep calling us back because we write allowances into the contract for exactly what this city’s older housing stock throws at you. Cloth-insulated wiring. Notched load-bearing headers. Cast-iron drain lines that crumble when you look at them. We’re not surprised by any of it, and we don’t hit you with panic pricing when we find it.
What separates us is simple. One contract, one team, and a brand roster of more than 50 vetted manufacturers across cabinetry, countertops, roofing, windows, doors, fencing, and hardscaping. No juggling three different vendors. No finger-pointing. From the kitchen to the roofline, you get one point of accountability.
Ruben and the crew have worked every corner of San Bernardino, from the flat valley grids around Highland Avenue and E Street to the steeper lots up toward Cal State San Bernardino. Response time to any San Bernardino address is built around your schedule, not ours. When you call (855) 600-3192, we set the estimate window and stick to it.
Styles & brands we work with







Licensed General Contractor in San Bernardino
Every Stallion Contractors job in San Bernardino is run under a state-licensed General Contractor with full-scope capability across interior and exterior work. That’s not a formality. When you open a wall and find undersized framing or outdated electrical, the permit requires a licensed contractor to correct it before inspection sign-off. Homeowners here learn that fast. We plan for it from the first walkthrough.
On a mid-century home, a routine kitchen remodel in San Bernardino typically runs $14,000 to $45,000. The reason the range is wide is what’s behind the drywall: the condition of the wiring, the plumbing, and whether the original framing still meets current code. That’s where the license matters. We price those unknowns as written allowances, so you see them coming instead of absorbing them as a surprise change order.
Permits, Inspections, and Written Change Orders
A permit on wall removal triggers a full electrical and framing inspection in San Bernardino. That inspection will find things. We prefer to find them first, during our own opening-up phase, and price the correction in writing before drywall goes back up. You approve the number. Then we do the work. Then it passes inspection the first time.
That sequence is the single biggest difference between a smooth remodel and a budget that spirals. It’s also why we never hand you a lowball bid that we’ll “figure out later.” Nor should any contractor.
Full-Scope Remodeling Under One Contract
A Licensed General Contractor in San Bernardino should be able to handle the kitchen countertop replacement, the bathroom rough-in, the siding repair, and the paver patio without you calling four different companies. That’s what Stallion does. KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinetry, Cambria and Silestone countertops, GAF and CertainTeed roofing, James Hardie siding, Belgard pavers. Every trade. One contract.
This matters more in San Bernardino than you might think. Valley heat means exterior work and interior work often need to proceed on different schedules. A crew that handles both can sequence the whole job around those realities instead of leaving you waiting on a sub who’s booked out six weeks.
Residential General Contractor in San Bernardino
When you hire a Residential General Contractor in San Bernardino, you’re hiring the person who owns the outcome, not just the labor. We scope the job, pull the permits, schedule the inspections, coordinate the material deliveries, and stand behind the finished work. For a homeowner, that’s the difference between managing a remodel and supervising one.
San Bernardino’s housing stock runs heavily to homes built between the 1940s and 1970s. Those houses have charm. They also have galvanized supply lines, fuse panels, and headers that original builders never intended to carry a modern open-concept load. We’ve remodeled enough of them to know exactly where to look before we write the contract.
A full home addition in San Bernardino runs $45,000 to $130,000. A bathroom remodel lands between $9,000 and $28,000. Those are real local ranges, not national averages. They include the cost of doing the work to current California code, which the estimates from out-of-town contractors conveniently leave out.

ADU and Prefab Capability
San Bernardino has a growing number of homeowners exploring ADUs, especially with the city’s logistics economy pushing housing demand. We build accessory dwelling units through partnerships with Abodu and Boxabl, which gives you options far beyond a traditional stick-built addition. A prefab ADU through Stallion runs $90,000 to $220,000 depending on foundation, utility runs, and site prep.
Those numbers come with a caveat. Foothill lots in San Bernardino may trigger additional fire-hardening requirements, which we build into the estimate from day one. You’ll never get a number from us that quietly assumes a flat valley lot when your parcel sits on a slope above the 3,000-foot mark.
Mid-Century Home Specialists
If you live in one of San Bernardino’s 1940s-1970s tract homes, you know the drill: plaster over gypsum lath, original single-pane windows, and a subpanel that’s been maxed out since the Reagan administration. We’re not fazed by any of it. Our estimates for these homes include realistic allowances because we’ve opened enough walls to know what’s waiting behind them.
No surprises means exactly that. If the wiring is shot, the allowance covers it. If the header is undersized, the structural repair gets priced before demo continues. And if it turns out everything’s clean, that allowance money stays in your pocket. We don’t keep what we don’t use.
Trusted Brands We Service in San Bernardino

AfterCommon General Contractor Problems We See in San Bernardino Homes
- Surprise code upgrades once walls are open. A permit in San Bernardino triggers a full electrical and framing inspection. Mid-century homes rarely pass those on the first look, which means expensive corrections if they weren’t in the budget.
- Heat-driven schedule slip. Concrete pours and exterior finishes need temperatures below about 95°F. In a San Bernardino July, that window is narrow. If your contractor didn’t schedule around it, your draw schedule just slid.
- Foothill fire-hardening gaps. Projects up toward the San Bernardino Mountains need ember-resistant vents, Class A roofing, and defensible-space clearing before inspection sign-off. A valley contractor might never mention it until the building department does.
- Scope gaps between trades. The classic: a kitchen remodeler leaves the drywall patch to you, the paver guy won’t touch drainage, and the roofer says the fascia is someone else’s job. One contractor fixes that.

FAQs About General Contractor in San Bernardino
We handle them with written allowances built into your contract from the start. On a 1950s tract home near Del Rosa Avenue, our crew opened the kitchen wall to find cloth-insulated wiring and a load-bearing header that had been notched for a previous remodel; the permit inspection flagged both, and we priced the structural repair and electrical rough-in as a written change order before any drywall went back up. You approve every dollar before we spend it. Call (855) 600-3192 to discuss your project.
Yes. San Bernardino’s wildland-urban interface areas require fire-hardening measures like ember-resistant vents, Class A roofing, and defensible-space clearing before inspection sign-off. A valley contractor who rarely works the foothills may not know those rules until the building department red-tags the job. We do, and we build them into the estimate from the first site visit.
San Bernardino summers regularly exceed 100°F, and concrete pours plus exterior finishes should not be done under those temperatures. Smart scheduling means starting those phases early, sequencing around heat, and sometimes accepting a slower draw schedule rather than a failed inspection. We plan for that. It’s why we don’t promise unrealistic timelines.
Expect the inspector to check the framing, electrical rough-in, and any fire-hardening requirements on your property. If you didn’t plan for corrections on an older home, the inspection is where the budget blows up. We schedule a pre-inspection walkthrough with our own team before the city comes out, so what the inspector sees has already been corrected and documented.
Yes, every Stallion contract includes a line-item scope of work with written allowances for the unknowns specific to San Bernardino’s aging housing stock and fire-code variability. You’ll see the payment schedule, the permit fees, the material list, and the allowance language in writing. Call (855) 600-3192 and we’ll walk you through one.
