COMMERCIALHandshake Builders is a licensed solo general contracting operation based in Venice, run by someone who's still on the job site, not just running the estimates.
Every project is custom and job-by-job — there's no template being reused from house to house. Significant portions of the work are self-performed directly, backed by a stable of trusted subcontractors for everything else, so the same standard carries across every trade.
The name is the promise: work that gets done the way it was agreed to, by the person who agreed to it.
