Advance Construction

Advance Construction implements complete remodeling plans for residential and commercial clients throughout San Francisco and the East Bay. Formerly known as North Bay Construction, the company builds room additions (including bathrooms and kitchens), foundations and framing; installs drywall, ventilation, bath equipment and fixtures; handles plumbing, tiling and wiring; and fixes household problems like termite damage, dry rot and various cracks. Owner Michael Ghanivand says his favorite part of construction is working with his hands and seeing what he creates. A native of Iran, Mr. Ghanivand discovered his passion for construction when his life took an unexpected turn. "I actually have a medical background—I went to medical school at the University of Szeged in Hungary," he explains. "The Iranian economy wasn't great, so my parents couldn't send me enough money to continue my education. I came to the United States, went into construction to pay my living expenses and grew to love it." Mr. Ghanivand's excitement for building and renovation transfers to the relationships he shares with his clients. "I'm honest and treat them like friends," he says. "I speak with them frequently and always try to work within their budgets. Mostly, it's about the communication—I try to understand their desires." Company Philosophy "We take great pride in what we do, and we approach every project as if we were working on our own homes. We treat our clients the way we'd want to be treated.
