Stillo Construction, LLC

From day one, Hector and his team were highly responsive, prompt, and informative in their communication and follow-ups in identifying and repairing my stucco needs. They focused highly on preventive maintenance repairs as well as inspecting and ensuring the remaining of my home for any other identifiable touch ups and repairs, being sure to secure potential future damage and long-term peace of mind!

Not only was Hector and his team exceptionally knowledgeable, skilled, and highly professional but overall very reassuring that I placed my trust and confidence in such a skilled and reputable company for my stucco needs. I would highly recommend Stillo Construction, LLC services especially after such a top notch, quality interaction with Hector and his team, which was instrumentally important being a first time stucco home owner.

Stillo is a niche company that every person who owns a stucco sided house should know about. They repaired and replaced our stucco and more. They made the facade of our house look like new and repaired all the "wrongs" imposed by our builder (Gracepoint Homes - but who's naming names). Jose (the team leader of our crew) was amazing (professional & in constant communication) and I can't say enough about his team (they were awesome). Thanks for a job well done.

Stilo did such a great job. They were finished with the job ahead of schedule despite rain getting in the way. Jose kept me informed of progress along the way and let me know about various improvement options. Highly recommend!

One of the best home repair experiences I've had. Adolfo, the project manager, and Eddie, the on-site leader was respectful, responsible, communicative, kind, and very prompt. They worked diligently and cleaned the site after each day making walking to and from my car minimally obtrusive! A bonus was that the crew was always very friendly and even helped me bring my groceries in through the construction debris. Definitely worth the time and money! Thank you Stillo! You're the best!

Very happy with our experience with Stillo! The crew was timely, professional and very efficient. Additionally, the crew acted with a lot of integrity -- when they got into the project they found scoped work that didn't need to be done. They alerted us, eliminated the unnecessary work, and we saved some money. Would use Still again in the future for any further stucco work.

Stillo did an amazing job of fixing/repairing the stucco at our home. They even re- painted. Working with Leo Castillo on the fee proposal to Hector Castillo our PM was a pleasure. They were very professional and the crew was polite all while doing a superb job of cleaning up at the end of every work day. If you want Your stucco repaired there are plenty out there to choose from, if you want quality and it done correctly- your choice should be Stillo!

Stillo has been caring for my stucco for the last 4 years. They are responsive, knowledgeable and on time when we have an appointment. They just completed some minor repairs and painted all of our stucco. It looks amazing and so well done that I know it will last. It is comforting to work with a company that you know will be there when you need them. i highly recommend Stillo.

I have recently needed a major repair done to my home. I interviewed several contractors/companies, and decided to go with Stillo - reputation, known quality, and the initial meeting with Leo. I am extremely pleased with the work done, which was rather extensive: stucco, rock, porches, water proofing etc. But, what I would really like to emphasize is the people and the service. Hector, the project manager that I worked with, was just so professional, communicative, responsive, and intent on satisfying even some details that were might be overlooked by some, but were important to me.

I was able to contact him anytime. Even in the evening, he responded immediately. Although I was at work during much of the project, he accommodated my schedule so that I could meet with him personally as it progressed. I just cannot say enough about the personalized service that he provided. When completed, he assured me, very sincerely, that if I had any concerns, he would be back until I was satisfied.

I believe him. I have hired contractors before, and this is not typical. I also appreciate the master carpenter, Eddie, who was able to tweak some errors in the previous construction to improve on the overall structural supports of the house. He and his team were incredibly friendly and positive. Even the front office responds quickly and very professionally - beginning to end. I would not hesitate to recommend Stillo, and particularly, this team led by Hector. Great service, kind contractors, and details oriented craftsman.

Never fun to have to get stucco repairs, but Stillo is definitely the best we've found if you do. They use the best materials (like real copper flashing!) and are nice people. The quality of work is fantastic and the owner Leo is clearly an absolute stucco expert (you never have to worry if they are "doing it the right way", he always knows exactly the best way).

They also document the whole repair and can send you the photos and files after. Incredible resource if you want to include for a sale or for your records, super impressive and definitely leagues above the notes from any other contracting work we've had done. Had one minor issue with work related to a pre-existing condition in our house, and owner is going out of his way to help figure out a fix for. It seems like he really takes pride in their work which makes them a pleasure to work with. If you need stucco work and want the best quality result, call Stillo.

Due to original construction oversights, I needed extensive stucco repair on three bump-out areas and the fourth-floor terrace. After a moisture test (expertly performed by Lone Star Stucco) and several estimates, I decided upon Stillo Construction for the projects. I have not been disappointed. There are very few contractors who specialize in stucco removal/stucco repair.

It can be confusing when you look around, trying to find out proper stucco information, and much of it is flat out incorrect. Leo Castillo, President at Stillo Construction, LLC, was onsite personally to evaluate the project initially, and then he turned the project over to Project Manager, Michael Hymel. Michael walked me through each step with professionalism, empathy, and responsiveness. Michael is authentic and does not settle in his ways.

He is always willing to learn. An extraordinary trait of Michael is that he fosters a culture of a positive work environment. I was very involved in the project daily, so I witnessed this firsthand. Employees at any level felt comfortable relaying information without fear of consequences, and their input was valued. This is among the essential traits of successful leaders.

And the crew, ah the crew. well, my Father set the bar very high on being meticulous in his craft, and he would have been proud of the care, accountability, and strategic planning demonstrated by each member of the crew. Their end of day clean up was conducted as though it was the inside of a medical facility. And my neighbors appreciated the crew being mindful of not blocking driveways and always being courteous. Finally, Stillo has a robust operational strength that makes you feel secure in knowing that invoices are correct and easy to understand. Plus, although my PM was onsite practically daily, I knew I would reach out to the office staff at any time, and they would bend over backward to help.

I hope this review assists others as they evaluate their projects. Stucco is a beautiful, yet incredibly complex exterior, so take great care in choosing a contractor that cares for your home like Stillo cared for mine. Or better yet, call Stillo!

We hired Stillo to do our stucco repair after getting multiple quotes following an inspection by a different company. Stillo was not the cheapest but they were very professional from the start, and we had the advantage of having seen their work on a neighbor's house, which was excellent. They also offer a 2-year guarantee, which can be extended with regular maintenance.

They did an excellent job and we are very happy. Their contract clearly states the extent of the work which is covered and explains that additional work may come up as the stucco is removed and the actual damage is revealed. In our case the price doubled, but not without detailed explanation at each step from the project manager and from the lads working on site, and then not before approval by us.

It was all very professional. It was expensive but it seems quite fair given that the lads were on site for two months and that it safeguards the house. All stucco work was carried out using professional scaffolding. I've seen other jobs in the neighborhood where they just used ladders and from a quality and safety perspective, the scaffolding makes a huge difference.

The lads were courteous and professional, and the management actively communicated and responded to our questions with realistic answers, by email, phone and in person. They also paid close attention to details: touching up window frame paint, fixing/replacing wooden moldings, proper clean-up, and even included sealing of all required areas (even beyond the areas of the stucco repair).

It wasn't perfect, but it was worth five stars for sure. I noted in a different review complaints about grass, dust, and replacement of the flood lights. Those are issues, but it would be difficult to completely avoid them. In our case the lads put plastic over our garage door and taped it, so really no dust got in. A bit of our grass died under the cover of a tarp, but it was minimal given the scope of the job.

And yes, I had to re-aim my flood lights and tidy up some service cables(which Stillo probably would have done if I had asked). Small and temporary inconveniences compared to the peace of mind knowing that the job is well done and the house is taken care of. One more note: be prepared for noise! This is not a positive or negative part of the review, just a reality. Stucco repair is very noisy work as they remove the old stucco. Don't underestimate that impact on your home life, especially if you have pets or small children (or ears!).

Stillo Construction was chosen to make the stucco repairs to my newly purchased 9 year old townhouse based upon recommendations from others. What started as a seemingly small, 1 week long job turned into a much larger job very quickly. As the old stuccco came off, more damage to the underlying structure was found, caused by poor construction and/or poor supervision that included missing and incorrect flashings and the use of interior sheetrock as a "spacer" between the plywood and the stucco weepscreed.

The water incursion behind the stucco was so sever that three main support beams were rotted through. The work included stripping off the entire side of the house to remove the old stucco and sheetrock material, replacing multiple rotted support beams, a section of rotted roof deck, replacement of improper and missing flashings, reinstallation of the moisture barriers, the 3 layers of stucco and paint.

Every issue discovered was discussed and priced prior to the work being performed. Frank Solis, project manager, and crews were diligent in performing the work. They showed up to work on time, every day including some weekends to take advantage of good weather. They kept the work area neat and tidy, cleaning up all at the end of each work day to minimize inconvenience to my very close neighbors.

The initially planned 1 week project turned in to just over 5 weeks, but all work was completed as promised for the agreed price. I highly recommend Stillo construction for stucco repairs and consider this company for new construction projects so these hidden construction issues will not happen to you.

Stillo Construction repaired damage caused over several years by a slow leak. The proposal for the work -- which included removing the original stucco, replacing plywood and timber and then reapplying the stucco -- was detailed and the bid amount competitive. The crew was professional, provided information regarding the progress of the work, and did an excellent job on the repair. The owner, Leo Castillo, oversaw the work and was available to answer questions. I recommend them.
