San Diego Custom Home Builder

Custom homes, built from the foundation up.

4x8 Construction is a full-service design-build firm — and the rare builder that self-performs its own structural concrete and hardscape. One contract, one team, from homesite to finished home.

What We Do

Three ways to build with us.

Full-Service Design-Build

Custom Homes

Ground-up custom homes, ADUs, and major remodels — planning, permits, and construction managed under a single contract, from first sketch to final walkthrough.

Subcontracting — For Builders

Foundations

Structural concrete for general contractors and custom-home builders: footings, stem walls, structural slabs, and retrofits — bid from your plans, built to pass first inspection.

Subcontracting & Direct

Hardscape

Patios, walkways, driveways, decks, and outdoor living spaces — engineered wall systems and finish concrete that turn a yard into livable square footage.

Our Process

Straightforward, from day one.

No mystery, no runaround. Here's exactly how a project moves through our hands.

Consult & Estimate

We walk your lot or your plans and deliver a free, all-inclusive line-item estimate. You see every number.

Design & Permits

We coordinate architects and engineers, finalize plans, and carry them through city approval.

Build

Our crews pour the foundation and build up from it — with scheduled trades and a jobsite that stays clean.

Deliver

Walkthrough, punch list, warranty. We close out completely — paperwork included.

Why It Matters

The builder who pours the foundation.

Most builders sub out the structure of your home to the lowest bidder. We're the opposite: structural concrete is where we come from, and our own crews still pour every foundation we build on.

  • Structure done in-house — the part of the home you never see, done by the people whose name is on the contract.
  • One contract, one team — design, permits, and construction under a single agreement.
  • Transparent numbers — line-item budgets, not allowances that balloon later.
  • Owner-run — you talk directly to the person responsible, every time.

Licensed California Contractor

4x8 Construction Inc. holds CSLB License #840735 and is fully insured. Verify it online with the Contractors State License Board — we link straight to it.

20+ Years in San Diego County

Two decades of foundations, homes, and hardscape across the county — from hillside lots in Poway to coastal remodels in La Jolla.

Self-Performed Structural Work

We don't broker out the critical scopes. Foundations and concrete are our own crews' work — the trades other builders subcontract to us.

Transparent Line-Item Budgets

Every estimate is itemized. You know what each scope costs before we start, and progress billing tracks against it as we build.

Our Divisions

Specialized crews, one standard.

Two of our service lines run as dedicated divisions — same company, same license, crews focused on one thing.

Outdoor Living Division
Sol Hardscapes

Patios, walkways, pavers, decks, and complete outdoor living spaces for homeowners and landscape designers — built with the same structural discipline behind every 4x8 project.

Right-of-Way Division
SD Sidewalks

Sidewalk repair and replacement across the City of San Diego — city-notice responses, permits, and inspections handled end-to-end for property owners.

Both divisions operate under 4x8 Construction Inc. · CSLB License #840735
