Eric is very knowledgeable and skilled in all aspects of home construction, remodeling and repair.

He did a fantastic job! “We” did one bathroom at a time so I always had a functionable bathroom.
The first one he gutted out the entire bathroom and started over. We replaced the shower insert with pretty tile and built in a niche for my shampoo etc., and a step for shaving my legs. He put in all brushed nickel appliances, a new vanity, sink, toilet, flooring, canned lights in the ceiling with a fan, and vanity light. It looks awesome!
The second bathroom was much more extensive. I wanted a walk-in Jacuzzi, and not just a normal one, I wanted a two seater so I could put my feet up. Eric had to knock out a wall to install it. There again, we remodeled the whole bathroom with new appliances, vanity, sink, toilet, flooring, canned lights in the ceiling with a fan, vanity light, dimmer switch, and we put in a 32” flat screen TV. It turned out fabulous!!! It is now my “spa bathroom.”
One thing about Eric, is he is not messy, he is extremely clean and neat. He has a great team that works well with him. They put down tarps and put up plastic walls, so the dust was nothing. I work at home, and we worked together on when he could shut off the water or electricity. It was minimal.
As for pricing, I say if you want quality, you have to pay for quality. Sure, I could have had a new shower insert installed, or called Bath Fitters and had a temporary fix to the situation, but I wanted bathrooms to last my lifetime.
If you are looking for somebody who totally cares about your home, I suggest using Eric. He is awesome!

We feel he has been honest and fair with all our business transactions together. He is very conscientious and works with integrity and patience on our projects. He has very good communication skills and shared
everything to the finest details. Sometimes on special occasions on the weekends we were fortunate to see Spencer visiting and enjoying doing things with his dad. In conclusion, we look forward to a long friendship and we would recommend Eric to other friends in the future.
Sincerely, Kevin & Norma Traylor

I didn’t even know he had been there, except the job was done. Eric had a well thought out construction plan way ahead of the project, including every cost saving, and safety measure and design issues accounted for.. Eric knows this business, and is a no nonsense and honest person whom is easy to work with and performs 110% of what he says he will. Eric had my best interest at heart.

He encountered significant plumbing and electrical issues and gave us fair quotes for improving these important components of our home. He also did a marvelous job refinishing and shoring up our deck which allowed us to install a new hot-tub. He stayed in constant communication and provided updates through-out the project. We appreciated his professionalism and attention to detail. We most definitely would schedule future projects with Eric. Sherie and Dave read less

He was very professional and knowedgable about the various trades, always explained what he planned to do. He got back to me very quickly and was always on time, organised and conscientious and very thorough with every project.. He installed our new gas range, range hood, and reworked the kitchen sink with a small water heater (the big one is 2 ½ gallons away) We highly recommend him for any construction project. read less

He visited the site, provided a timely estimate, and completed the deck project sooner than we anticipated. Eric always kept us informed about his plans and progress. Importantly, Eric recommended an improvement to plan that made sense, which was incorporated within these repairs. Eric also handled all specialized metal fabrications accurately and efficiently – something that I could never have done myself. He was always timely, well organized, and put in a full day. He is very professional and I highly recommend him for your home improvements and projects. Thanks again. If other projects come up will let you know. read less

It needed a new kitchen's conveniences, but the design had to fit within the River vibe: casual but cool. We came up with a plan that maximized the small space using materials that delivered charm and character and worked with the rest of the home. Eric started by identifying much-needed structural work in the basement beneath the kitchen. That work shored up the structure and added stability to this part of the home. This kitchen has several odd angles, imperfect measurements, and lots of quirks - that's where Eric's deep breadth of experience and knowledge is so invaluable. Because Eric runs a small crew and handles the technical and detailed work himself, there is a great deal of personal pride in his work and unity in the overall project. He was constantly coming up with creative solutions or workarounds to solve problems. He has an optimistic attitude which is always welcome during any construction project. Eric was always available and in constant communication. He regularly updated me on his progress, accomplishments, and obstacles. Sometimes we talked several times a day. This remodel was a real partnership in ideas, but the craftsmanship and skills are all Eric's. I highly recommend you talk to Eric about your project. read less

I’ve found Eric to be very professional, and honest with high integrity and character. Some of the smallest projects involved repairs and improvements of electrical and plumbing systems, demolition of various structures followed by associated repairs and construction, etc. More recently Eric and his crew completely remodeled our 1,200 sq foot home, and added an additional 1,300 sq feet to our home along with an enormous deck and staircase outside, resulting a new 2,500 sq foot home with a large stone fireplace, high ceilings, all new electrical, plumbing, a new septic system, etc. Eric worked closely with our architect, the county engineers and inspectors to make sure everything was done correctly, and I believe has their high respect as a General Contractor. Eric and his crew did and incredible job in every aspect of the construction, down to the final painting and total cleaning of the project. My wife and I never worried about anything they've done – it has always been “over-the-top” in all areas, and we highly recommend Eric Wilson and Specialty Improvements, Unlimited. read less

From the beginning, Eric was professional, knowledgeable, willing to listen, made suggestions and offered affordable solutions. During the course of the construction, Eric kept me updated and appraised of all work he was managing. He allowed me to participate as I could and made it feel like “my home.” All work was done in a timely and efficient manner and there was never a need for any re-work. I love my home and am grateful to Eric for doing such a fantastic job thus allowing me to retire and stay in Sonoma County with my family.

He took the time to educate me, explain details, showed the need to replace ducts and attach pipes for the exhaust fans that were never done. He framed the attic before insulation and oversaw everything. This man is a perfectionist and pays attention to details. There was no pressure and his calm description of the work was helpful. He was always on time, protected my home with plastic and tarps. I moved out while he did the work and felt perfectly at ease giving him the key. He stuck to the estimate and did the work at the time he said. But what is most outstanding besides the high quality of his work, was his kind, caring manner of doing this project. It is hard to put into words how compassionate he was with a 74 year old woman who was doing what felt like a huge project. This man is trustworthy and the job was great. The clean-up was deeply appreciated. He even provided pictures of the work during and after. He checked in later asking how things were. I wish I had more work for him but so appreciate having him if I need him. read less
