Services
Project Management
We provide expert construction project management tailored to California’s complex regulatory landscape. Services include pre-construction planning, permitting and entitlement coordination (Coastal Commission, CEQA, ADA, zoning), budgeting, bid and contractor management, and schedule oversight. We handle on-site supervision, ensure code compliance with seismic and Title 24 standards, and manage quality control through final inspection—delivering efficient, compliant, and cost-effective results.
Permitting
Permitting in California requires precision, persistence, and local expertise. We guide projects through every layer of approval—from initial research and application prep to agency coordination and final sign-offs. Whether dealing with Coastal Commission reviews, CEQA compliance, ADA requirements, or complex zoning overlays, we streamline the process to minimize delays and keep your project on track.
Entitlements
Entitlement processes in San Mateo, San Francisco, and Alameda counties are some of the most complex in California. We specialize in securing land use approvals—rezoning, use permits, variances, and density bonuses—while navigating CEQA, community outreach, and multi-agency coordination. Our local expertise ensures that projects align with jurisdictional priorities, gain necessary approvals, and avoid costly delays at every stage of entitlement.

About
Stefan Dalkert
From sculpting clay figures to building luxury homes, I’ve spent my life creating with purpose and precision. After a decade in the toy industry—designing for major brands like Star Wars—I became a licensed General Contractor and shifted to large-scale residential and commercial construction.
Today, I specialize in high-end custom homes, working with top Bay Area architects and using only the finest materials. I’m an expert at navigating complex permitting, managing large crews, and delivering exceptional results on time and on budget. With an artist’s eye and a builder’s discipline, I bring vision to life—beautifully and efficiently.
