When things go wrong, we make them right. 🙌🏠
Not every project starts from scratch — sometimes it starts from someone else's mess. We stepped in, cleaned it up, and delivered an ADU this client will love for years to come. That's the Testorff promise.
We don't just build homes. We build trust. 💛

Lagoon on one side. Harbor beach on the other. Life is good. 🌊⛵
This full demo and new build next to Schwan Lagoon — within sight of Santa Cruz Harbor Beach — is a masterclass in how good design and great craftsmanship can make the most of an incredible location.
The reverse floor plan puts the main living space upstairs to capture every bit of those breathtaking views, while soaring vaulted ceilings and an open stairway keep things light and airy. Downstairs, the bedrooms open onto a private yard, and the kids' game room spills out onto a front porch facing the lagoon. Indoor/outdoor California living at its f#homebuilder
Every detail reflects the owner's personality — rich accents used just right, subtle elegance throughout, and a kitchen that makes cooking with a view feel perfectly ordinary.
Built from the ground up in just 7 months. 🔨

From crumbling to coastal perfection. 🌊🏠
This Monterey Bay beach house was in rough shape — rot, termite damage, down to the studs. But that's exactly the kind of challenge we live for. In just 9 months, we transformed it into a stunning, hyper-efficient 3-bed, 3-bath home built to handle everything the coast can throw at it.
Spray-foam insulation, passive solar heating, electric radiant wall panels, and a natural stack-effect cooling system means this home is as smart as it is beautiful. And those sliding glass doors with unobstructed views of Monterey Bay? Yeah, that's the good stuff. 🌅
The beach called. We answered. 📞🔨

🏆 History made in Santa Cruz County.
We're proud to have built the first LEED Platinum certified home in Santa Cruz County — and earned our second City of Santa Cruz Green Building Award in the process. 🌿

From gym to pizza joint. In 4 months. 🍕
We converted a personal fitness studio into Bantam — one of Santa Cruz's most beloved wood-fired pizza spots on the west side.
Reclaimed wood walls, a salvaged industrial floor sealed with epoxy, a custom Italian-made wood oven, and an urban chic vibe that the owner dreamed up and we brought to life.
Proof that a great build doesn't need a massive budget — just great communication and the right crew.
