Ameristar Construction in San Bernardino, CA | Framework Contractors
Framework Contractors provides independent Ameristar service across San Bernardino and nearby communities, from Ameristar service in Muscoy to cabinet refacing and full roof replacements here. We’re not a manufacturer affiliate, and we don’t pretend to be. What makes our Ameristar work different here is simple: we understand how this city’s heat, wind, and aging housing stock punish these specific products, and we correct for that before it fails.
Noel Carbajal runs our crew. He grew up learning construction from his uncle, spent three decades building across Southern California, and he’ll tell you the same thing we tell every homeowner: “Build it right the first time – the second time costs twice as much and nobody’s happy.” If you’re in San Bernardino and your Ameristar cabinets are warping or your Pro Series shingles are lifting, call us at (844) 681-3590. We’ll give you a straight answer and a free estimate.
Why San Bernardino Residents Choose Us for Ameristar Service
We’ve installed and serviced Ameristar cabinets, countertops, and roofing across mid-century tracts and foothill properties in San Bernardino and Ameristar in Highland for over a decade. That matters because Ameristar products fail in predictable ways here, and we’ve seen every one of them. A contractor who only knows Ameristar from a catalog can’t tell you why your K Series cabinet doors are separating on the west wall but fine on the east. We can.
Our Ameristar sales & service work spans the full San Bernardino service area, and we stock OEM parts for the hardware most likely to fail in this climate. When we can’t get a factory part fast, we don’t leave you waiting. We carry quality aftermarket glides and hinges that outperform the originals under 100°F heat and decades of use.
Noel’s experience shapes how we run every job. He learned to read structural drawings at Santiago Canyon College and spent years fixing what other crews got wrong. That’s the approach we take with Ameristar work in San Bernardino: fix the product, fix the cause, leave the site clean.

Common Ameristar Construction Problems We Solve in San Bernardino
- Warped and separating K Series cabinet boxes. San Bernardino summers regularly top 100°F, and kitchens with west-facing walls bake all afternoon. Cabinet box joints split, doors twist, and delamination follows. We reface when boxes are sound, replace when they aren’t.
- Cracked and granule-shedding Pro Series shingles. Prolonged UV on south- and west-facing slopes degrades these shingles faster than manufacturer estimates. Homeowners in the foothill areas near the 210 see granule loss within a decade, not fifteen years.
- Santa Ana wind lift and edge tearing. Wind-driven uplift tears shingles at eaves and rakes if they weren’t sealed properly. In the Verde and foothill neighborhoods, this isn’t an occasional repair. It’s an insurance-driven replacement trigger.
- Corroded cabinet hinges and stuck drawer glides. In pre-1970s San Bernardino homes with original galvanized plumbing, decades of pipe sweat raised humidity inside cabinet bases. Hardware corrodes, glides bind, and homeowners blame the cabinets when it’s really the plumbing.
- Oil-canning metal roofing and backing fasteners. Ameristar Standing Seam panels expand and contract hard over uninsulated attics. On older San Bernardino homes with minimal attic insulation, fasteners back out and panels ripple in the afternoon sun.
Ameristar Service in San Bernardino: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s something you won’t see on a generic Ameristar page. San Bernardino’s older core is full of pre-war bungalows with original 1920s to 1940s kitchen layouts. Ameristar cabinets were retrofitted into these homes in the 1980s and 1990s, often by installers who ignored the out-of-plumb walls and settled foundations that come with that housing stock. So a cabinet refacing or replacement in the older neighborhoods around Del Rosa or downtown frequently turns into wall flattening, floor shimming, and custom fill panels that a newer tract home never needs. If a contractor quotes you based on square footage alone, you’re going to get change orders. We measure walls first. We check the floor slope. Then we give you a number that holds.
On a 1950s ranch in the 92405 ZIP and on Ameristar repair in Loma Linda jobs, we were called to replace Ameristar K Series cabinets that had swollen and delaminated along the sink wall. The original galvanized supply lines had been sweating for years, and the cabinet back panel had no moisture barrier. We replaced the cabinets with new Ameristar boxes, added a vapor barrier, and corrected the plumbing. That’s the difference between fixing the symptom and fixing the cause.
Ameristar Models & Products We Service in San Bernardino
We work on the Ameristar K Series cabinet line, the Shaker Series doors, Pro Series architectural shingles, and Standing Seam metal roofing. For cabinet hardware and roofing accessories, we use Ameristar OEM parts to maintain fit and finish. For high-wear items like drawer glides, we recommend quality aftermarket replacements that hold up better in this climate than the originals. That’s an honest recommendation, not upselling.
Most San Bernardino jobs use stock parts we keep on hand. Specialty trim and color-matched panels take a few days. We’ll tell you the lead time before you commit.

FAQs – Ameristar Construction in San Bernardino
If the boxes are square and the joinery is intact, we can reface them. Warped doors and delaminated panels don’t always mean the cabinets are done. We assess the box structure, the moisture exposure from plumbing, and the wall conditions before recommending one path or the other. Call (844) 681-3590 and we’ll give you an honest answer on site.
Santa Ana winds lift shingles at eaves and rakes if the sealant strips were never properly bonded. On Ameristar Pro Series shingles, edge tearing is the most common failure. Prevention means a proper six-nail pattern, correct sealant strip activation, and vent upgrades where wind-driven embers are a wildfire concern. We inspect for all three on every roof job here.
It can if the panels are installed with the right allowance for thermal expansion and the attic has adequate insulation. Oil-canning in San Bernardino almost always traces back to an uninsulated attic or fasteners driven too tight. We correct both before installing metal roofing. If your existing metal roof is rippling, call (844) 681-3590 and we’ll tell you if it’s fixable.
With proper installation and no plumbing moisture issues, Ameristar cabinets last 20 to 30 years in this climate. The heat and low humidity shortens that when the cabinets sit on a west wall or over sweating pipes. The homes we see with cabinets failing at 10 or 15 years almost always have one of those two conditions.
Yes, we pull permits on every roof replacement in San Bernardino. The city’s foothill zones and wildfire hazard areas require specific roof assemblies, vent screening, and sometimes Class A materials. We handle that paperwork and walk the inspection with you. Call (844) 681-3590 if you’re in a foothill area and want to know what your property requires.
