I was very impressed by Alex’s company and his A/C professional and Mold expert, as I was very afraid that I was breathing mold or mildew for over 1 year. But I was very relieved to discover that my A/C wall unit was just very dirty but I was still breathing dirt, dust and bacteria, as I have mild emphysema. So, I was very impressed with their thoroughness and checking all my walls with the moisture meter and cleaning out my very dirty A/C unit and reminded me how often to clean it. Alex was in constant contact with me before we scheduled an appointment. He answered all of my questions, which were many! So, I would highly recommend his company, as they are very professional, experienced and thorough. And most importantly, they provided me with peace of mind!

Gabriel was amazing! Very courteous and kind. He went and bought the parts that I needed and completed service the same day (on a Sunday) that took an hour. He is awesome. I’ll definitely be calling him back

SantaBay delivered exactly what they promised and what we needed: top-quality work, thoughtful care, and strong follow-through to exceed expectations.
They handled a complex, multi-faceted project with professionalism, clear communication, and genuine attention to the outcome.
When we encountered deferred maintenance and remediation issues along the way, they responded with practical solutions and a holistic approach that balanced overall residential improvement with our budget. Their judgment and execution inspired confidence at every step.
We would not hesitate to work with them again and recommend them without reservation.

FAQs
How did you get started doing this type of work?
Since the start of the war in Ukraine, thousands of Ukrainian homes have been severely damaged by military action. Working as a nonprofit humanitarian NGO, in 2022 we decided to begin to work tirelessly to help lovingly rebuild Ukraine so that the Ukrainian people could be enabled to continue to stand strong against destructive military aggression. Fueled by this mission, between 2022 and 2024 we successfully built many temporary refugee homes in Ukraine and fully reconstructed civilian houses destroyed by the war. Through this charity work, we developed a deep love for fixing broken things and re-creating them in far higher quality than they were before tragedy struck. Importantly, thanks to the significant budgetary constraints of operating a nonprofit in a war zone, we learned extensively how to maximize quality for less cost. Breathing new life into living spaces became an enduring passion that we have now brought to the United States in 2025, utilizing the vital skills forged in war to bring our affordable, determined, passionate and precise contracting work to the California Bay Area.
