At Adval Construction, every project starts with trust. And for Andy Fernandes, Founder of the company, trust has always been the foundation of everything he does.
With a career built on relationships, honesty, and consistent results, Andy brings a unique perspective to the construction industry—one that goes beyond building homes and focuses on building long-term connections with clients.
Andy Fernandes graduated from California State University, East Bay, where he earned his degree in Business Management.
His academic background provided a strong foundation in leadership, operations, and client relations—skills that would later become essential in both his real estate and construction careers.
More than just formal education, Andy applied these principles early on in real-world environments, shaping a practical, people-focused approach to business that continues to define his work today.
Before entering the construction industry, Andy built a strong foundation in client service through his work as a Realtor in the Bay Area. During this time, he helped many families achieve one of the most important milestones in their lives—purchasing their first home. Which is the most import investment in their life.
For Andy, this was never just about closing deals. It was about guiding people through major life decisions, understanding their goals, and earning their trust during a deeply personal process.
This experience reinforced a principle that continues to guide his career: People come first.
After his success in real estate, Andy transitioned into a highly competitive sales environment with HDI (Home Depot Installation). What set him apart wasn’t just performance—it was his approach.
While others focused on transactions, Andy focused on people. He took the time to understand each client’s needs, provide real solutions, and build relationships that extended far beyond a single project.
That mindset quickly led to exceptional results.
Andy’s commitment to building trust and delivering real value led to outstanding recognition early in his career.
From 2013 to 2015, he was named Top Sales Consultant for HDI (Home Depot Installation) for three consecutive years—a rare achievement that reflects both consistency and excellence at a high level.
While earning top recognition in a competitive region like the Western Division is already a significant accomplishment, achieving the #1 position across the entire United States in 2015 highlights a truly exceptional level of performance.
More importantly, these awards were not just about numbers. They were the result of Andy’s ability to build long-term relationships, earn client trust, and consistently deliver results.
This three-year streak—culminating in a national-level achievement—reflects the same principles he brings today to Adval Construction: consistency, reliability, and a strong commitment to the people he serves.
Over time, Andy felt a desire to take his work further.
He wanted to move beyond consultation and become directly involved in the process of improving homes—helping families create spaces where they could live, grow, and build memories.
That vision led him into the construction industry and ultimately to the founding of Adval Construction.
At Adval Construction, Andy has helped shape a company culture rooted in trust, accountability, and quality.
His philosophy is simple: Every project is personal.
Whether it’s a kitchen remodel, bathroom renovation, or full home improvement project, Andy understands that each job represents more than construction—it represents a family’s investment, vision, and daily life.
That’s why he ensures every project is handled with: honest communication, clear expectations, respect for the client’s home, attention to detail and commitment to quality.
For Andy, construction is not just about completing projects—it’s about contributing to the community. As a local business owner, he believes in showing up consistently, delivering reliable results, standing behind every project, and building long-term relationships with homeowners. His hands-on approach allows him to stay closely involved in every stage, ensuring that each client receives the level of service, attention, and trust they deserve.
Choosing a contractor is about more than skills—it’s about confidence.
Andy’s background in building relationships, combined with his experience in the construction industry, creates a client experience based on trust, transparency, and reliability.
