Erich is a very responsive home builder. He has built several homes for clients of studio 2G Architects. We find his process very organized which helps keep both clients and us abreast of the budget during the phases of the architectural design process. He consistently provides input during the design development phase based on his research whether it is for a material alternative of a different take on a certain detail.

Thinking about building a home? When I am in a place where the ideal home may not exist, I most often turn to my friend and master builder Erich Schaefer. Erich builds beautiful homes, some of the nicest on the Central Coast, and he is cost conscious and very ethical (he’s a business major from Cal Poly). But what has always worked for me is that he listens. Years ago, he developed a system that helps clients put their vision on the drawing board. He has learned to ask questions that people haven’t even thought of. I have been in several meetings when his clients have brought in plans or sketches, and after discussing their lifestyles and needs (not just current requirements, but their needs years from now), I have seen their plans completely change. Over the years, Erich has been my #1 builder resource for my clients looking to build a luxury home or do a major home remodel. Erich is very generous with his time and advice. If you are thinking of building a home, it is well worth your time to spend an hour with Erich … even if you don’t use him. Ask him for one of his building questionnaires. I guarantee it will raise thought provoking questions that have not occurred to you. Rob Feder Associate Broker, Patterson Realty

I have had the pleasure to work with Erich, on multiple projects, over the years. As an Architect, it is reassuring to know that the General Contractor, on your project, is professional, responsive, detailed oriented and provides a high level of quality work. He is a contractor that truly has the Client's best interest in mind and goes that extra mile on team work and collaboration which translates to a successful project. I can confidently recommend him to my Clients.

We have been in our new home in Cayucos for 8 months now. We first met Erich over 20 years ago when he did a small job for us on our house in San Luis Obispo. His work was such quality, that he was the first person we thought of to build our home. He met us at the lot when it was in escrow and worked side by side with us every step of the way. First, let me say Erich's word is golden! He promises and delivers. Second, his subs were all great. We were on site more than most people as we were living less than a mile away, and we became friends with most of the subs. Third, this was not stressful for us! When building a home, the number of decisions seem endless and Erich shouldered the stress for us. If we were to ever build another project or remodel, Erich would be my first phone call! Our home truly is a custom home! John and Dawn Turner

Erich supports SLO County Builders Exchange by posting his projects in our weekly bulletin. This allows sub-contractors who are members of SLOCBE -to provide BIDS for sub-contract work. He is well-respected within the construction industry in SLO County.
