With over 25 years of experience in the construction industry, owner Josh Marquard founded his general contracting company with one clear goal: to deliver a better, more personalized experience for clients seeking custom homes, high-end renovations, and well-executed commercial spaces. After two decades of managing everything from large-scale subdivisions to luxury custom estates, upscale hotel renovations, fine dining restaurants, and commercial tenant improvements, Josh saw the need for a general contracting company that could combine his deep industry knowledge with personal attention and integrity.
Founded in 2021, Cal-Pacific Contracting is the result of everything Josh has learned—built on the foundation of professionalism, precision, and a relentless focus on client satisfaction.
What sets Cal-Pacific apart is how we operate. From the very beginning, we work closely with our clients to thoroughly plan every project detail before construction begins. This upfront investment ensures fewer surprises and a smoother experience throughout the build.
Our Specializations Include
→ Custom residential homes
→ High-end kitchens, outdoor living spaces, and unique architectural finishes
→ Luxury remodels and whole-home renovations
→ Boutique commercial and hospitality buildouts
