West Builders

At West Builders we believe in setting a higher standard serving clients throughout California.

06/13/2026

Ten years is a long time in construction. It's even longer when you consider what those years actually represent -- the projects started and finished, the teams built, the client relationships deepened, and the standard held every single time.

Today we're celebrating Travis Cook's 10th anniversary with WEST Builders.

Travis, ten years in and still showing up with the same dedication and leadership that makes this team what it is. The work you do here isn't just felt on the job site. It's felt by every client, every partner, and every colleague who's had the privilege of working alongside you.

Here's to many more.

3030 Telegraph is complete.

144 units. 5 stories. 94,664 square feet of mixed-use residential development in the heart of Berkeley. A community lounge, a fitness center, and a lush courtyard that makes the whole building feel like more than just a place to live.

This project was delivered through a Design-Assist approach with Design-Build MEPS -- a contract model that demands close collaboration, real trust, and the kind of problem-solving that only comes with experience.

That's exactly what we brought to the table.

Designed by Left Coast Architecture. Developed by Riaz Capital. Built by WEST.

Arthaus Dwight is complete.

58 new residential units across six stories in the heart of Berkeley. Designed by Levy Design Partners and built by our team with the same care and precision we bring to every project -- from the ground-floor amenity spaces to the courtyard, to the last detail on the top-floor breezeway.

Design-Assist done right. This is what a great owner, great design team, and great builder can accomplish together.

We're proud of this one.

Halstead | Pasadena, Southern California

Foundation work is in full swing at Halstead. Bldg B shear wall footing concrete placement is underway while Bldg A is in active footing excavation, rebar installation, and elevator pit waterproofing, multiple critical scopes running simultaneously and on sequence. These drone shots capture just how much coordination goes into this phase, where every marker, every line, and every measurement is intentional.
This is what early engineering alignment looks like in the field. By the time the team reaches this stage, the plan is clear, the crew is locked in, and the work speaks for itself.

Moshav|2403 San Pablo, Berkeley

Building better starts with building smarter.
The Moshav project just hit a significant milestone with the delivery and installation of rooftop heat pumps and solar panels, a visible commitment to sustainable, energy-forward design. Meanwhile, exterior siding and stucco are taking shape on the outside while drywall and soffit work continue to define the spaces within.
At WEST Builders, we are proud to deliver projects that are as thoughtful in their systems as they are in their finish.

20 years. Two decades. One incredible WESTie. 🎉

Today, we're raising a glass to Krystal Gonzalez, a cornerstone of the WEST Builders family since 2006.
Twenty years is no small thing. Krystal has weathered shifting economies, survived software migrations (we all know how those go), and helped grow this company into what it is today, all while holding the finance team together with equal parts precision and grace.

Managing the "cash in" side of a growing construction business takes a rare blend of diligence and diplomacy. Krystal? She makes it look easy. Her steady hand and sharp instincts have been a quiet force behind every project we've delivered, every milestone we've hit.

But beyond the numbers, Krystal is the kind of colleague who makes showing up feel worth it. She's a devoted wife to Mike, a proud mom of three, and a certified dog mom of two. She brings that same heart to everything she does here.

And in the words of her fellow WESTies:
"I know I can always count on you if I ever get stuck on something. Congratulations on your milestone, wishing you many more years to come!" — RA
"Without your sage advice, I'd be swimming in the dirty ocean water at various SoCal beaches!" — DDJ

Krystal, WEST is better because you chose to build with us. Here's to 20 years and whatever incredible chapter comes next. 💙🏗️

2587 Telegraph | Berkeley, Northern California

From permits filed to panels installed, 2587 Telegraph has been a project defined by collaboration, careful planning, and a team that never cuts corners.

Standing at 85 feet, this development brings 52 apartments and ground-floor retail to one of Oakland's most active corridors. Seeing it rise from the street like this is a reminder of why we do this work. Not just to build structures, but to build places where people will live, gather, and grow.

Nearly there. And it looks exactly like it should.

Great projects start with great conversations.
WEST Builders will have a booth at The Student and Workforce Housing Development Conference on May 7th and 8th at the JW Marriott in Los Angeles. We are looking forward to connecting with developers, architects, engineers, and housing advocates who are working to solve one of California's most pressing challenges.
If you are going to be there, let's find time to connect. We would love to hear what you are working on.

The Residency at the Empire is completed and delivered.

This seven-story, 148-unit affordable housing development sits directly adjacent to Robert E. Gross Park and replaces a former commercial site that was a fixture in the neighborhood for years.

The exterior comes in strong with a red masonry base, white panel cladding across the upper floors, and a building footprint that commands its block at a major intersection. Inside, one-, two-, and three-bedroom units are finished out with white shaker cabinets, dark countertops, stainless steel appliances, and dark hardwood flooring throughout, built for households earning between 30% and 80% of the area median income.

Corridors are clean, in-unit laundry is built into every layout, and the ground-level outdoor amenity space includes a fully installed playground on synthetic turf.
