In honor of Women’s History month, Sweeten is spotlighting women contractors in the general contracting field. These Sweeten contractors are leading the charge and closing the gender gap.

With years of experience under their belts, their firms include experts who handle a myriad of projects—from residential room remodels and full-home renovations to commercial work.

Sweeten matches home renovation projects with vetted general contractors, offering advice, support, and up to $50,000 in renovation financial protection—for free.

In the third of a five-part series, we highlight firms led by women contractors who have the skills and industry knowledge to make your home-sweet-home a reality.

Sweeten General Contractor Marisela | Los Angeles

“Our goal is to banish the bad rap contractors get by simply doing what you hire us to do—plus a little more,” says Sweeten general contractor Marisela. Working under this philosophy, Marisela built a successful contracting business for the Los Angeles area. Her husband and business partner, Mario, helps to manage the full suite of renovations that her company handles. They have experience in major buildouts and remodels, including additions. See Marisela’s reviews and work.

Sweeten General Contractor Anna | Gaithersburg, MD

General contractor Anna, and her team, work in the Gaithersburg area of Maryland; a popular suburb of Washington, DC. She specializes in general contracting while offering guidance to find reliable architects as well as creative support. The Sweeten contractor’s track record is best summed up by one of her client’s reviews: “[I have worked with Anna] nine different times and I’m also a real estate agent, so I recommend them to my clients. We live in a rowhouse in DC and hired them personally to repair some drainage and flooding work.” See Anna’s reviews and work.

Sweeten General Contractor Cecille | Los Angeles

Sweeten general contractor Cecille and her team help clients successfully navigate all stages of a construction lifecycle. They consider themselves more than just contractors, acting as problem solvers and creative partners to all clients. “Our team approaches every project with the same care and tenacity as if the investment were our own,” says Cecille. And her clients have taken notice, writing reviews like this one: “She is very conscious of her work, honest, hard-working, one of the best GCs I have ever used. [Cecille] sticks to the budget and timeline, and is very communicative, which is rare.” See Cecille’s reviews and work. Featured on the blog: Sweeten homeowners Kirsty and David gut-renovated their house with Cecille’s expertise.

Sweeten General Contractor Anna | Los Angeles

“I found this team on Sweeten and was initially interested because they were identified as a woman-owned business,” says one client. Another describes her experience with general contractor Anna and her team as “always professional and on time.” A family business, Anna and her company oversee projects ranging from small-scale interior upgrades to additions and new home construction. The Sweeten contractor also focuses on ADUs (accessory dwelling units), which are popular in the Los Angeles area. Her company has grown steadily over the last 15 years, building a clientele that consistently gives their work five-stars. See Anna’s reviews and work. Featured on the blog: Sweeten homeowners Liz and Kevin’s bathroom scored a 180-degree refresh with Anna’s help.

    Teaming up with a woman general contractor in L.A., a remodel partnership delivers a dream bathroom “After” photos by Madeline Tolle for Sweeten. Stylist: Emily Bowser Before: Turn a must-do gut reno into a custom master bath remodel When they bought the Spanish Revival Mediterranean in South L.A.’s Park Mesa Heights, they’d pulled off a victory: a first-time home purchase in SoCal. But Liz and Kevin’s 1923 house had a secret: water damage beneath the master bathroom floor, thanks to a shower pan installed incorrectly a decade before. “To deal with it,” said Liz, the executive director of an education nonprofit, “we needed to take the bathroom down to the studs.” With this, Liz and Kevin started planning for a bath remodel in their L.A. home. Liz and Kevin, a technical production senior manager at Disney Studios, viewed the dank discovery as an opportunity “to add storage and maximize space,” Liz said. But also to showcase their style. The two Mid-Century enthusiasts, who li...
