Sierra Foothill Construction

Grass Valley contractor Keoni Allen owner of Sierra Foothill Construction at info@sfccinc.com commented on the ease of remodeling for both he and Kane’s restaurant during the last renovation of Kane’s, using short term rental storage space at Old Barn Self Storage in Grass Valley. By having a delivery location for the vendors that were supplying necessary items for the remodeling, the contractor and his client avoided the many usual delays of not having the necessary units when needed. Keoni, mentioned that it was good to have what you needed when you needed it. It made the scheduling easier for the people supplying product and the client using them. 

Many times the contractor has to schedule around the supplier, say cabinet makers. Many times, when busy, the cabinet people are not able to just keep producing because they do not have the space to store while the contractor is going through their process. Short term storage rental, one month at a time can smooth out the process for the contractor, the suppliers and the client. A few hundred dollars for a month’s storage goes a long way in any construction project, new or remodeling. We all know the stress involved with clients when there is construction going on. This extra space is a stress reducer for all parties.
