SERVING OTHERS SINCE 2007. PIONEERING IDEAS AND RAISING THE BAR.
Truebeck Construction was founded with a gamechanging spirit and an ambitious vision: disrupt the traditional and ordinary, and rigorously raise the bar to do our best work. Period. We’re driven by the belief that we can improve construction practices and elevate standards, while creating remarkable places in our community.
Many things are built. Few things are crafted smart and well. We have an entrepreneurial nature – thinking big, but not acting big – and perform as true builders with boots on the ground. We absolutely love construction, and you’ll see that in everything we do. It’s never business as usual on our jobsites or in the office; in fact, it’s more like a championship game.
We strive for greatness in the details, the dirty work, and in the victory of helping you achieve your vision.

John Muir Health
Ambulatory Surgery Center and Parking Structure
WALNUT CREEK, CA
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This first phase of John Muir’s significant masterplanned expansion consisted of a OSHPD 3 regulated 327,000sf eight-story structure with 44,000sf of medical use and 768 parking stalls. Medical uses include a surgery center, endoscopy, imaging, and an eye lab. Truebeck assisted with the coordination of the fully-designed MEP systems and interfaced with five different architectural and tenant improvement designers. The combined use of the overall structure as both a medical facility and parking garage posed the biggest challenges, which Truebeck supported the design efforts for by providing budgeting, scheduling, value analysis, and constructability reviews to help integrate the complex vibration, acoustic, and structural design elements into the project.
Interim site work projects included new helistop structure, relocating existing site utilities to support the new campus, loading dock renovation, electrical service improvements, and new mobile medical unit.

Truebeck performed a 20,000sf upgrade to an occupied mental health treatment facility, including remodeling of patient rooms and all new interior finishes. Work for this OSHPD 1 facility with 24-hour care is comprised of three phases, allowing for the decommissioning of large sections of a floor for better access.
The scope of work included “anti-ligature” furnishings—items such as door knobs, shower handles, and light fixtures are designed to prevent patients from harming themselves—with almost every finish having to be customized or specialized. Badging and tool protocols were put into place in order to prevent tool misplacement or access by patients.
