Can anyone recommend any contractors in San Diego (especially keen on North Park, South Park, Normal Heights)? Keen on good rates, professional attitude, quality work and quick turnaround time.

I trust Broaddus Construction but I would not rate them great at each of you criteria:

- Good rates: B+

- Professional Attitude: B

- Quality work: B+ (Most things A but a few things C)

- Quick turnaround: D+ (typically it is him and one helper doing the work and he prefers to not work long days)

My own criteria: Trustworthy: A+. 

I have used him quite a bit in both my rentals and my own home.  He does great tiling but price is a little higher than others specializing in tiling and he is much slower.  He has built a patio structure (great work), installed diving board (great work), turned 2 half bathrooms into full bathrooms (great work), framed to have sliders where there were windows previously (good framing, mediocre finishing), fixed window contractor's poor finishing job (great work), 3 complete bathroom remodels including installing jacuzzi tub (great work), fixed car port structure (great work), extended a chimney great work), replace roof on a patio (great work), repairs from giant tree fall (good work).  He has done two complete unit rehabs (these were 2/1.5 each but converted to 2/1.75 each after the rehab: complete guts including in one of them much of the drywall) for me and they both took longer than I would have anticipated but good/great work.  I am sure I am missing many of the projects he has done for me.

If speed is a high criteria than I would likely look elsewhere.
