Who we are.
AllReady Construction Inc is a licensed California general building contractor. We renovate multifamily and commercial buildings across the state from our base in Southern California.
Almost all of our work comes from referrals. Owners and operators hire us on one asset, then bring us onto the next. When someone refers us, the next step is a vendor check, and this site gives that person what they need.
A general contractor from the owner's side of the table.
Ruben PalaciosOwner, AllReady Construction Inc
Ruben is a licensed California general building contractor with more than thirty years in construction.
He has repositioned more than 100 multifamily communities, roughly 20,000 apartment units, and more than 35 luxury homes across Southern California.
For over twenty years he was Redevelopment Division Manager at Essex Property Trust, responsible for more than $500 million of multifamily and commercial renovation and construction.
He spent those years on the owner's side of the table, the side that has to explain a late schedule. That is why he built AllReady Construction around buildings that stay leased while the work happens.
What owners say about us.
“AllReady Construction has been a dependable partner for Welltower Inc. across projects in California and Texas, executing over $30 million in renovations. We brought them in for the speed, flexibility, and efficiency of a boutique GC, while still delivering results comparable to much larger firms. They have successfully taken on projects larger GCs could not execute, consistently delivering on schedule, within budget, and to our quality standards. Ruben and his team operate with high integrity, honesty, and strong communication.”
“Ruben Palacios and AllReady Construction have consistently demonstrated strong construction knowledge, professionalism, and the ability to execute. Having previously worked at Essex on the ownership side, Ruben understands an owner’s priorities, which makes him especially effective as a contractor and vendor today. He is responsive, solutions-oriented, and focused on delivering quality work while managing schedule and budget. I would confidently recommend Ruben and AllReady Construction for complex renovation and construction projects.”
“AllReady Construction has proven to be a strong and reliable partner in executing large-scale commercial warehouse and industrial projects. Their team understands the complexities of working in active commercial environments and consistently delivers with a high level of accountability, responsiveness, and attention to schedule and budget. They have the experience and resources to manage significant construction scopes while maintaining the flexibility and hands-on approach that is often difficult to find with larger general contractors. I would highly recommend AllReady Construction for complex commercial and industrial construction projects.”
“Wandery Capital is a boutique real estate investment firm that takes an entrepreneurial approach to developing large-scale luxury vacation homes and boutique hotels. Because we operate in hospitality, design, quality, speed, and guest experience all matter. AllReady Construction has been a great fit for that model, providing valuable consulting, hands-on assistance, and execution on complicated renovations. Ruben and his team are flexible, resourceful, and understand how to bring highly customized projects to life without losing sight of budget or schedule.”
How we renovate a building while people live in it.
We plan the phasing, the resident notices and the leasing calendar before we price the job. Most bids leave that work until the crew is on site, and that is why schedules slip in week two.
What we do on site
We work one wing at a time and reopen it every day. Residents can always reach their front door, and leasing keeps its tour route.
We send resident notices before work starts. Residents call us, not the regional manager.
Our superintendent is on the property every morning. They walk it with your management team instead of reporting from an office.
We self-perform the critical trades. Fewer handoffs means fewer places for the schedule to slip.
We send our W-9 and certificate of insurance when you ask. Your vendor onboarding does not wait on us.
Who we work for
Publicly traded REITs. We deliver the reporting, insurance compliance and schedule certainty a portfolio needs.
Institutional owners. We deliver CapEx programs across several assets in one budget cycle.
Third-party managers. We talk to your on-site team every day and keep resident complaints off your desk.
Asset and CapEx managers. We check scope and budget before you take them for approval, so your number holds.
Private owners. You get the same crews and the same controls on a single building.

Send us the scope. We walk the property, then send you a price with the schedule and assumptions written out.
