San Lorenzo

General Contractor & HVAC San Lorenzo CA

Mid-Century Modern Specialists

B.A. Morrison provides the specialized structural and mechanical updates required to preserve and enhance San Lorenzo’s classic residential character. As a premier General Contractor San Lorenzo CA, we understand the unique bones of the Bohannon homes found throughout the Village. We specialize in upgrading these mid-century structures with modern energy efficiency, seismic safety, and high-end remodeling while maintaining the neighborhood’s historic charm.

Mid-Century Remodeling & Infrastructure Upgrades

Most San Lorenzo homes were built in the 1940s and 50s, requiring a contractor who knows how to modernize aging systems. We bridge the gap between vintage design and current safety codes:

  • Electrical & Panel Upgrades: Modern construction and high-efficiency appliances often require more power than original San Lorenzo panels provide. We manage full service upgrades to support your new kitchen or HVAC system.
  • Kitchen & Bath Modernization: We specialize in maximizing the footprint of “Village” homes, offering open-concept remodeling that respects the original post-war architectural lines of the 94580 area.
High-Efficiency HVAC for Classic Homes

San Lorenzo’s coastal-influenced climate can lead to moisture issues in older crawlspaces. We engineer mechanical solutions that improve both comfort and air quality:

  • Compact HVAC Products: We install specialized, small-footprint units and ductless mini-splits that are ideal for the limited attic and crawlspace clearances typical of San Lorenzo architecture.
  • Modern Air Distribution: Every heating and air conditioning install we perform includes a full assessment of your home’s envelope to ensure your new system operates at peak efficiency without the energy leaks common in older builds.
ADU Development & Property Value

San Lorenzo’s larger lot sizes make it a prime location for Accessory Dwelling Units. We provide a turnkey solution for expanding your property’s utility:

  • Garage Conversions & Detached ADUs: We handle the entire construction process, from structural framing and foundation work to meeting the specific Alameda County zoning requirements.
  • Unified Mechanical Integration: Our dual-licensed status ensures your ADU’s climate control is perfectly sized and integrated, providing independent comfort for guests or tenants.
