CGI Construction in Lompico, CA | Viceroy Construction
We provide independent CGI stone, tile, and surface installation across Lompico, CA 95005, and offer our Home Remodeling in Lompico. The thing that separates our CGI work here from a flatland crew is simple: most Lompico homes sit on pier-and-post foundations over graded canyon slopes, and a CGI slab counter or tiled shower is only as flat as the floor beneath it. We check and shim the substrate before any stone goes down. Call (877) 358-6557 for a free estimate on CGI countertops, shower tile, or backsplash work in Lompico.
Why Lompico Residents Choose Us for CGI Service
We work on CGI surfaces every week, so we know how the product behaves in a canyon house where humidity swings between wet winters and bone-dry summers, and where slope movement is a constant. Neil Drummond, our owner, trained in the building trades program at West Valley College and spent decades on residential remodels across the South Bay and Santa Cruz Mountains. That background shows up in how we approach a CGI install: we read the product literature, buy the correct trim and setting materials, and warranty our work on its own merits. Lompico homeowners call us because we understand that a stone counter set on out-of-level cabinetry in a redwood-era cabin will telegraph stress cracks at the sink cutout within a season. We fix the substrate first, then set the stone. It’s slower, and it’s the only way that holds.

Common CGI Construction Problems We Solve in Lompico
- Stress cracks at sink and cooktop cutouts. Older Lompico cabins shift with the wet-winter/dry-summer cycle, and an out-of-level cabinet run means the slab flexes at its weakest points. We re-shim the base, then replace or re-set the CGI counter so it sits on a true plane.
- Cracked grout and tented shower tile. A tiled shower over a flexing pier-and-post floor pops tiles within a season. The deck moves, the tile doesn’t. We fix the pan and substrate before re-setting CGI porcelain or glass tile, especially in mid-century homes on graded lots.
- Slab seams and edges separating after structural work. When a home gets a foundation retrofit or pier replacement, everything shifts. We routinely re-level and re-shim CGI counters after the engineer signs off and the house settles back.
- Darkened stone at slope-side walls. On graded canyon lots with no proper drainage plane, moisture wicks up through backsplash and shower stone. We address the drainage issue at the wall before any new CGI tile goes up.
- Staging failures on single-lane drives. Not a product failure, but it ruins installs. We’ve seen crews drop a slab hauling it down a switchback because they didn’t plan the run. We stage material in one trip and set the same day when the driveway allows.
CGI Service in Lompico: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Lompico is a narrow, steep-walled redwood canyon, unincorporated and off the county grid in places, and the housing stock reflects that terrain. Most homes are older redwood-era cabins or mid-century builds on pier-and-post or partial-basement foundations cut into canyon slopes. That matters for any CGI surface because stone and tile don’t flex. A counter that was flat when the house was built in the 1960s may now be running a quarter-inch out of level after fifty years of seasonal ground movement. We check with a six-foot level before we quote, because that quarter-inch determines whether we’re doing a simple counter replacement or a full cabinet re-shim. It’s a step crews from flatter CGI repair in Felton or Boulder Creek lots often skip, not because they’re careless, but because their terrain never forced them to think about it. Then there’s access. Many Lompico homes sit at the end of a switchback private drive with no turnaround. Equipment staging, not the build itself, is the real scheduling bottleneck. We plan material runs around that reality: one trip, pre-cut where possible, and no second canyon delivery if we can avoid it.
CGI Models & Products We Service in Lompico
We install and service CGI quartz slab countertops, including engineered stone supplied through fabricator channels, as well as CGI black galaxy and speckled granite slabs. On the tile side, we work with CGI glass and porcelain lines for shower walls and backsplashes, and CGI slab and fabricated vanity tops for bath remodels. Our parts approach is straightforward: we fabricate CGI slab and tile to the manufacturer’s setting specifications and buy name-brand setting materials rather than bargain thinset. The substrate work is what makes or breaks a CGI surface, so we don’t cut corners there. Our honest stance on repair versus replace: a cracked or undermined slab gets replaced or re-set, not patched. But sound CGI counters on a solid cabinet run are worth keeping through a remodel, and we’ll tell you so rather than selling you stone you don’t need.

FAQs – CGI Construction in Lompico
No. Viceroy Construction is an independent CGI service provider. We are not manufacturer-affiliated or authorized. We install and repair CGI surfaces to the manufacturer’s setting specifications, and we warranty our workmanship on its own merits.
We fabricate CGI slab and tile to CGI’s published setting specs and use name-brand setting materials, not bargain thinset. For quartz and granite, the slab itself is the product; the fabrication and substrate work determine whether it holds up. Call (877) 358-6557 if you want a material-by-material breakdown.
A typical CGI countertop replacement runs two to three days including templating, fabrication, and set. A walk-in shower with CGI porcelain tile runs five to seven working days depending on pan and wall condition. In Lompico, access often adds a day for staging because material has to come down a single-lane drive in one trip. Call (877) 358-6557 for a schedule estimate on your specific job.
We work with CGI quartz slab countertops, CGI black galaxy and speckled granite slabs, CGI glass and porcelain tile lines for showers and backsplashes, and CGI slab and fabricated vanity tops for bath remodels.
CGI countertop installation in Lompico typically runs $2,000 to $6,500, while a full walk-in shower with CGI tile ranges $4,500 to $12,000. The variable is always the substrate: older pier-and-post homes often need leveling work before stone goes down, which is a good thing to discover before the slab cracks. Call (877) 358-6557 for an exact quote, estimates are free.
Yes, in most cases. Slab colors like black galaxy are broadly available, and we can match existing CGI porcelain tile runs if the line is still in production. If it’s discontinued, we’ll show you the closest current CGI alternative and give you honest guidance on whether a partial replacement is worth doing or if a full run makes more sense.
