What We Offer
Our in-house team consists of local guys that can do all trades on the projects we take on. Our partners (specialized subcontractors) have been helping us complete projects and have proven themselves over time to be reliable, professional, and good to do business with. Just because you know how to do something well, doesn’t mean that you are a good partner. Reliability and clear communication are essential to getting a project done on time and on budget.
ADUs
We were among the first dedicated ADU builders in Sacramento and strive to be the best Sacramento ADU builders.
Heating & Cooling
Take advantage of Tim’s experience in the HVAC industry, where he spent nearly four years starting an HVAC company from scratch with a relative.
Roofing
Everybody needs a good roof over their head, and finding the right roofer for the right application can be tricky; you can trust Tim’s tried and true installers for your roofing project.
Windows/Siding/Stucco/Dry Rot
The outside envelope of the home is critical to the life of the home itself, and critical to your comfort inside. You can trust TSD’s team to ensure that your outside envelope is warm and dry.

why
Why Choose Us
Why choose a general contractor for your project?
The main reason that customers choose to have a general contractor manage their project, whether it’s for just a roof or HVAC replacement, or for an addition or new-build ADU, is that a general contractor typically has a wide arsenal of specialized contractors at his or her disposal. Over the years general contractors develop relationships with subcontractors and learn who they can count on to do quality work in a timely and cost-efficient fashion. Typically, a general contractor gets a discount from the specialty contractor, which provides the general contractor a small margin and still gives the general contractor the ability to present the customer a fair price. It’s a win-win for the customer, as they don’t have to try and select a service provider at random and essentially roll the dice on getting someone who will do a good job. In that sense, a good working relationship with a trusted general contractor is worth its weight in gold.
Additionally, a general contractor may have four or five, or even more, of one specific trade in their phone bank, meaning that they can select the trusted partner that best suits the job. Time and experience will dictate who the general contractor will lean on to complete the task, but the ultimate responsibility lies in the general contractor’s lap. For the customer, the ability to make a single phone call to a trusted general contractor in their neighborhood means that they don’t have to worry about anything else. The general contractor takes ownership of the job and is responsible for any permits and scheduling all the work and trades in the proper order.
Do problems arise when a general contractor is managing a job? Yes, problems still occur. While a general contractor oversees the project and is pulling all the strings to make it happen, things can and do come up. There are no silver bullets. But time and experience in the trades and the sheer number of jobs completed give the general contractor an advantage in dealing with those problems when they do arise.
How
The process
How do you select a general contractor to work for you?
The main selection criteria should be personality (do you like him or her), experience in the task(s) you are looking to accomplish (how many times have they done this), and reviews or referrals. A lot of the older contractors “missed the boat” when it came to accumulating reviews on Google. Frankly, the internet and “Google” came along after they were well on their way to building their business profiles. Even today as I revise this page in late 2024, some of my best and most reliable subcontractors have just three reviews, or two reviews! So, while reviews are important, they don’t tell the whole tale. Try and get referrals from friends and family, or your church, or your neighbors. Ask around about someone before you end up signing on the dotted line.

Client Testimonials
What Our Clients Are Saying
Nothing goes further to helping other homeowners make a good decision than a good review or two. See and hear for yourselves:
Henry Calanchini When our HVAC system failed last month Tim heard about it through the grapevine and asked me if he could bid on the replacement. I know Tim as a neighbor, and I like him, so I said yes. I'm so glad that I did. Our former HVAC provider gave us three separate bids for different replacement options. The systems they offered were pretty standard and their prices were high. Tim's bid came in several thousand dollars lower than any of the others. Not only that but his bid included adding an additional return air duct to properly balance the system - an improvement he identified - and moving a floor register to a better location. The system Tim recommended is a Mitsubishi heat pump. According to him, Mitsubishi is the industry leader in heat pumps. I had seen many of them during my travels in Japan but didn't realize they were heat pumps. The installation went smoothly and was completed in one day. We are so happy with the result. We just set the thermostat at a comfortable temperature and leave it alone. Unlike our old AC, this one has a fan that runs continuously and quietly. The house stays at a very comfortable temperature all of the time - it never changes! No more walking over to the thermostat to adjust the temperature multiple times. No more uneven heating throughout the house, and no more waking up to the loud start of the AC kicking on and the interior doors rattling due to pressure changes. Tim was great about checking in to see how we liked the system and scheduling the city permit inspection. I highly recommend TSD Construction. Tim is honest, dependable and does great work. Suzanna Dsa The owner is very responsible and easy to communicate... my house repairs were completed per my satisfaction. All his workers were very professional and good guys. I wish him the best. Sean Lodholz TSD Construction replaced my roof and roof mounted HVAC. They were professional, prompt, available to answer all of my questions, reasonably priced, and did good work. I plan to use them again on future home projects. Marjorie Clegg TSD completed multiple projects for us. Tim responded quickly to our request for an estimate. Tim and all contractors were very professional respectful of our home. Great job and thank you! Ernest Takahashi Our new deck and fence looks terrific and the workmanship is excellent. The workers were on time and very neat. Thank you TSD. daniel The heating and cooling system in my home were not performing well, so I contacted Tim Davidson, owner of TSD Construction. An inspection of my attic revealed that the ductwork was torn in some places and not even connected in others. A complete removal of the existing insulation and thorough cleaning of the attic, followed by all new ductwork and new insulation was recommended. The crew that Tim sent out were on time, the work was done on schedule and they were meticulous in cleaning up after they finished the work. My HVAC system now works like new and I couldn't be more pleased with the work that was performed. I highly recommend TSD Construction to anyone in need of ductwork repair or replacement. Steve M TDS owner Tim has been great to work with. The job involved removing and replacing an old roof. Tim came out and inspected the site and quoted within a day. Top quality materials were quoted and he was very through in describing how a new roof would be installed. I had several questions about the material proposed and he was quick to respond. The quote was very reasonable. TDS scheduled the job and within a couple weeks permits were pulled and work started. It took 3-4 work days and the old roof was off and new one installed. New roof looks great and job site completely cleared of all debris. I'm happy to have found TDS and would certainly recommend them to friends and family as well as use them in the future. Richard Hodgkin After interviewing several contractors to complete a drywall repair in my home, I was most impressed with my initial interaction with TSD Construction. Mr. Tim Davidson was professional, courteous, and respectful. I hired TSD Construction and was completely satisfied with the completion on the job. After the job was finished, (dry wall replaced and painted) I could not even tell any dry wall had been replaced at all. The job was completed in the time stated. If you want professional, high quality work, I highly recommend TSD Construction and definitely would hire again. John Ruden Over this past year TSD Construction has managed three major jobs at my houses in Curtis Park, and all three have been completed excellently. First was to manage a basement that had been flooded by 4 feet of water because of a plumbing failure during a three-day weekend in September. The second job at the same house was to replace completely two old bathrooms and to re-plumb the entire house. This summer he supervised the removal of a collapsed garage, its broken cement foundation, and driveway. Then TSD had a new garage, patio, and driveway constructed. Tim Davidson is organized, familiar with municipal regulations and requirements, and necessary inspections. Tim works well with craft people, inspectors, and neighbors. My three excellent, completed projects are why I recommend TSD Construction so highly.

Location
Service Area
Areas We Serve
The closer you live to the Pocket area, also known as Greenhaven, the more likely you are to see TSD Construction signs and projects taking place. That is by design. We are based out of the Pocket—Greenhaven area and are most efficient when we minimize our windshield time. Driving between jobs is a necessity each day, so the less driving time for us the better. The local areas around Greenhaven include Land Park, Hollywood Park, and Curtis Park. We also service midtown jobs and are “lead safe certified” to work on homes older than 1978. Don’t get me wrong, we will travel for a project that is a good fit for us, but in terms of efficiency, we prefer work that is closer to home.

Do You Have Any Questions?
The remodel market has been on a tear since recovering from the “Great Recession.” The abundance of free-flowing cash and the shortage of skilled labor in our market, all markets really, has created a perfect storm for material price increases and delayed project times as customers wait their turn for a contractor to service their needs. Currently, we are only taking on remodel work for unoccupied homes—customers who are willing to move out for a month or so, are in the process of buying or selling, or for investors who are flipping houses.
