Maintenance & Construction

A Full Service Solution for You

Keep the Costs Down and Keep the Property Up

Consistent, responsive, and professional maintenance. Cal-Prop’s maintenance team holds licenses for general contracting and plumbing, is bonded, insured, and backs its workmanship with a two-year guarantee. Plus, every Cal-Prop maintenance team member has a minimum of five years field experience and continues to garner positive reviews on the internet.

Responsive, Cost-effective Service

That’s why we hold ourselves to a strict service level of 90% resolution within 3 business days, regardless of complexity. In actuality, we resolve more than half of all calls within 24 hours!

Examples of how we save you money:

  • In house key machine. All keys and duplicates are free.
  • Our expert plumbing team saves you 15-25% if and when large projects arise like a mainline replacement, gas lines, etc.
  • Anytime there is a roof leak or a flood or mold certified team gets in and out quickly, avoiding the need for an insurance claim.

Pricing and Priorities

Not only do you benefit from our reasonable management pricing (the lowest among San Diego companies), but also from our ability to quickly shift our team’s priorities in emergencies. Your property’s immediate need becomes our first priority.

Unit Turnovers

Your unit’s quick turnover is essential to maximizing financial returns and eliminating lost rental days. Our maintenance coordinator is monitoring daily and keeping our techs and vendors moving.

Maintenance Risk Management

Everyone preaches preventative maintenance, we practice it. That is why we change out old angle stops and supply lines during unit turnovers to help catastrophes. Materials are less expensive than labor so we choose parts with longer expected life so that your components’ life cycle costs are less. When El Nino winters are forecast we have a roofer inspect all of the flat roofs we manage to prepare for those large rainy seasons we have here in Southern CA.

Sub-Contractors & Large Projects

Take advantage of our 25+ year relationships with local, proven sub-contractors! Check out our completed projects – you’ll see that the expertise you need for apartment and single-family projects is already at your fingertips, and able to beat any contractor price.

I have been using Cal-Prop Since 1990. They have always been responsive and addressed any questions I had. When work is needed on my buildings, they attend to it quickly. In addition, they follow-up with making sure the work is done correctly. Many times, they have gone above and beyond the scope of our contract. They have integrity. I would recommend them to anyone.

Updating my review because Cal Prop Maintenance are awesome! We've had Chris and Eric in the apartment and they're always quick, efficient, professional and timely. Also appreciate our Property Manager's Jaime's quick responses and updates, etc. We used to get them after the person was already at our door, so it's been refreshing with our new PM.

I have been living at Casa Loma for almost 2 years now, and I have always had the best service from Cal-Prop. They promptly respond to every request and make the arrangements to have the issues fixed in a timely manner. Eric Paulin in Particular has been my assigned property manager, and had to deal with a difficult situation of parking disagreement with a tenant, where he intermediated the situation and proposed a solution in an extremely professional way to resolve the issue. I thank him for the service he provides to my wife and I as tenants and we hope to extend our stay here until we become homeowners. As a tenant, I can`t think of a better location.

Cal-Prop Property Management manages several rentals, for us, and we are extremely pleased with them. This is a very good and honest company all the way from the owner, Rick Thornton, to the managers, and repair and maintenance employees. Our personal property managers, Hobie Manley, and Vice President Melissa Young are both great. They are both always available to answer our questions and quick to address any concerns. Cal-Prop provides detailed reports on each of our properties and there is never a question as to what’s been done at the site. Additionally, we have experienced little or no loss of revenue during turnover when tenants are coming and going. Thank you for the good job you have been doing for us.

Eric P, my property manager has been amazing! He is prompt with his response whenever I had a question. Also, he keeps the residents up to date with things we need to know. He even showed me how to figure out where autopay was when it wasn’t intuitive on the mobile webpage.

I've had Cal-Prop for over a decade now and they are great. The management pretty much runs on autopilot and I rarely need to get involved but sometimes things go sideways for whatever reason and I do. They raise rents, deal with repairs and new tenants when needed. Highly recommended.

I’ve had a fantastic experience with Kate! She has made my housing experience a very smooth process, and I was able to book a showing right away with her. She is an excellent communicator and has an enthusiastic personality. I am so grateful my roommate and I have been in contact with her, because she helped us secure our new home! I would absolutely recommend Cal Prop management to anyone who is looking for trustworthy service and superior quality. Thank you Kate!
