ABOUT
Drew Daniel Construction Inc.
Based in Lafayette, California, Drew and the DDC team proudly serve businesses throughout the Bay Area, creating commercial spaces that work as hard as the people who rely on them.
Drew Daniel founded DDC Inc. (Drew Daniel Construction Inc.) to bring a craftsman's eye and a contractor's discipline to commercial construction throughout the Bay Area. With more than two decades of experience in restaurant construction, Drew has built a reputation for delivering high-quality spaces on schedule and with exceptional attention to detail. A licensed and bonded Class B General Building Contractor (CSLB #1054788) since 2019, restaurants remain his core specialty.
Over the years, Drew's portfolio has expanded to include major site and warehouse buildouts, retail spaces, historic commercial renovations, and fitness and wellness facilities—projects that demand precision, efficiency, and thoughtful execution. Whether managing a complex tenant improvement or a ground-up commercial buildout, he approaches every project with the same commitment to craftsmanship and accountability.
Drew believes successful construction is built on strong relationships. He works closely with owners, architects, engineers, inspectors, lenders, and subcontractors to keep projects moving smoothly from preconstruction and permitting through final inspections and closeout. His direct, transparent communication and hands-on leadership help eliminate surprises, solve problems quickly, and keep schedules on track.
Every project is personal. Drew treats each client's investment as if it were his own, remaining actively involved from the initial walkthrough to the final punch list. His goal is simple: deliver a finished space that not only meets expectations but helps each client's business thrive.
