Residential & Commercial Contracting Services

Action General Construction offers comprehensive residential and commercial contracting services tailored to private construction projects, homeowner renovations, tenant improvements, and multi-family upgrades. Founded in 1989 and based in Simi Valley, our experience spans single-family homes, commercial storefronts, professional office spaces, and complex multi-unit projects throughout Ventura County.

Why Integrated Residential & Commercial Services Matter

Residential and commercial projects require different approaches, but both benefit from integrated project management that coordinates design, permitting, trades, and inspections. Residential work often focuses on livability, comfort, and resale value. Commercial projects emphasize code compliance, accessibility, business continuity, and operational scheduling. Our integrated service model provides:

Risk Management and Insurance

We carry appropriate insurance for both residential and commercial work and employ risk management practices that protect owners, occupants, and workers. Insurance details are provided as part of the contracting process.
