Owner of North Bay Construction, John Fox, has been in the building industry for nearly 30 years. He grew up around it and knew it was his calling from an early age.
“My uncle was a property developer in Ireland and would always take me to job sites as a child,” Fox says. “I remember being fascinated with the entire process. I knew then that this was my passion. After working in Boston as a finish carpenter, I moved to San Francisco and decided to go out on my own.”
Since 2000, Fox has been helping Bay Area residents realize their home’s potential. Trained in carpentry, skilled in assembling the best in renovation teams and intuitive with design, Fox is the full package as a general contractor.
“I love being able to combine all of my passions into a career,” he says. “Whether it’s a big or small job, it’s brilliant to help make people’s dreams a reality.”
He’s worked on commercial as well as residential projects. The reoccuring commentary from clients though is that Fox is a master at understanding space and how to optimize what is given.
“Many San Franciscans are looking for more space,” says Fox, “but aren’t able to purchase a new home due to rising property costs. Often the only option homeowners have is to remodel within their space.”
That’s what Fox and North Bay Construction does best. “There are lots of ways to do this,” says Fox. “You can convert or repurpose existing space, or even expand into the outside.”
