Two generations. One standard.
Family-owned general contractor. Built on referrals. Backed by 30+ years of craft.
Chau & Gomez Construction Inc. carries forward a trade started by Tony's father, Paul Chau, in the late 1990s. What began as Chau's Construction, built through word of mouth and a reputation for quality work, continues today under the same values and expectations. Nearly three decades later, that's still how most of our clients find us: through referrals and repeat clients.
We are a tight-knit team that handles everything from kitchen gut renovations to large-scale commercial interiors. Our crew handles the work directly, and when specialists are needed, we manage them with the same level of care, oversight, and quality we expect from our own team.

Not every contractor earns repeat business.
Here's why our clients keep calling us back and sending their neighbors our way.
30+ Years Deep
We didn't start yesterday. Three decades of remodeling across NoVA, DC, and Maryland means we've seen every surprise a wall can hide — and we know how to handle it.
Our Crew, Our Work
Our field team handles the work directly. When we bring in specialists, they answer to us. Same standards, same quality you'd expect from our own crew.
Clear Communication
You'll always have a direct line to the people running your project. No phone trees, no runaround, no waiting days for a callback.
Transparent Pricing
Detailed, line-by-line estimates before we start. No surprises, no hidden fees, no "oh by the way" at the end. You know what you're paying for.
Licensed & Insured
DC licensed general contractor with full liability, workers' compensation, and commercial auto coverage. Your project and your property are protected.
Referral-Built Trust
We've never run an ad. Every client comes from a recommendation. That reputation took 30 years to build — we protect it on every single job.
Don't take our word for it.
Tony and Rodrigo were great throughout the process and made a stressful rental property project feel much more manageable. Chau & Gomez helped us get the place ready for the next tenant and handled flooring, painting, repairs, and punch list items professionally. Communication was clear, pricing was straightforward, and the team did solid work. We would absolutely work with them again.
We hired Chau & Gomez for a bathroom remodel and had a really good experience from start to finish. Tony and Rodrigo were both great to work with. They helped us understand the scope clearly, stayed in communication throughout the project, and made the whole process feel much more organized than past contractor experiences we've had. The finished bathroom came out clean, polished, and professionally done.
