In-House Design
Tidewood Homes was founded on a simple belief — that your home deserves the same care we'd give our own. Starting in the rolling hills of Contra Costa County, our family-owned firm has spent over a decade earning the trust of discerning homeowners across Alamo, Danville, Lafayette, and Moraga.
Now we're bringing that same standard of excellence south — to California's most coveted coastal communities. Design-driven. Detail-obsessed. Built to last.
Our philosophy is simple: a home should feel like a retreat — light-filled, organic, and effortlessly elevated. We blend modern simplicity with natural warmth to create spaces that are both beautiful and genuinely livable.
Tidewood operates across California's most prestigious residential communities — from the hills of Contra Costa to the shores of Manhattan Beach.
Our roots run deep in the rolling hills of Contra Costa and Lamorinda. For over 15 years we've built lasting relationships with discerning homeowners in some of the Bay Area's most sought-after communities — from the equestrian estates of Alamo to the tree-lined streets of Lafayette and Orinda. These are the neighborhoods where Tidewood was born, and where our reputation was earned one project at a time.
Manhattan Beach and the South Bay represent some of California's most coveted coastal real estate — and some of its most design-conscious homeowners. Tidewood brings the same exacting standards that defined our NorCal reputation to every SoCal project. From the walk streets of Manhattan Beach to the clifftop estates of Palos Verdes and the ocean-view properties of Pacific Palisades — we build for clients who expect nothing but the best.
A seamless journey from first conversation to final walkthrough. No surprises — just results.
Your vision, timeline, budget — captured before we touch a pencil.
Plans, renderings, material selections tailored to your taste.
Transparent, itemized bid. What we quote is what you pay.
Precision execution, weekly updates, dedicated PM on-site.
We walk every inch together. Done when you're satisfied.
Tidewood transformed our Alamo home into something we could have never imagined. Joey and his team listened to every detail — our lifestyle, how we entertain, what we wanted to feel when we walked through the front door. We've already referred three neighbors.
On time, on budget, and quality that exceeded every expectation. Tidewood is in a completely different league. Their communication is proactive, subcontractors impeccable, and the finished product speaks for itself. Truly white-glove from first handshake to final walkthrough.
Our Lafayette kitchen is now the heart of our home. The custom millwork, the stone selection, the way the light hits the island in the afternoon — Tidewood has an eye for detail that most builders simply don't have.
We did a full ADU build in our backyard and Tidewood handled everything — permits, design, construction. Seamless start to finish. The unit is beautiful and already generating rental income. Worth every penny.
After one meeting with the Tidewood team, we knew they were different. We're just getting started and already feel completely confident. The design vision they brought to our first meeting was stunning.
The moment I found out Tidewood was coming to the South Bay I reached out. The team has been incredibly thoughtful about preserving the coastal character of the home while modernizing it completely. Can't wait to see the finished result.
Exceptional craftsmanship on our Orinda whole-home remodel. The custom woodwork alone was worth every dollar — our entryway built-ins and library shelving are pieces of art. Tidewood doesn't cut corners, period.
Our Walnut Creek bathroom remodel was completed on schedule despite a tile back-order that would have stopped most contractors cold. Tidewood problem-solved on the fly and the result is a primary bath that looks like something out of a design magazine.
I am so excited to start rebuilding my Palisades home using Tidewood Homes. With so many developers and contractors overcharging, it has let me take a huge sigh of relief knowing we're in good hands and not being ripped off. Everyone has been so thoughtful in recreating what my family envisions for our new beginning.
From the established hillside estates of Lafayette to the coveted coastal addresses of Manhattan Beach – Tidewood brings the same uncompromising standard to every project. Consultations are always complimentary.
Thank you. A member of our team will contact you within one business day.
