Dreams are luxury, and you always deserve it.
Ernest Culp founded Bonsai Builder Construction in 1989, with only one goal: To become one of Silicon Valley’s finest builders. Our goal is to build each customer a home of lasting value and beauty while ensuring the highest level of customer satisfaction.
For over 30 years, Bonsai Builder has been crafting and renovating luxury homes in Los Gatos, Saratoga, and the surrounding areas. We offer a unique blend of personalized attention, in-house design services, superior craftsmanship, and fair pricing. Our commitment extends beyond just building homes; we’re dedicated to building lasting relationships. From start to finish, we collaborate closely with our clients to turn their visions into reality, treating each project as a distinct opportunity to deliver exceptional results every time.
As pioneers in the construction industry, we are Los Gatos’ go-to choice for distinctive, one-of-a-kind luxury homes—turning visions into reality and setting new benchmarks for excellence.
As a comprehensive design-build firm, we take full ownership of your project, guiding it from concept to completion. We offer an all-inclusive package of expert contracting, design, construction, and property management services. With our commitment to impeccable craftsmanship, premium finishes, and attention to detail, we are redefining what it means to build luxury homes in Los Gatos.
Ernest Culp started his career as a real estate agent before transitioning into real estate development. As demand for custom luxury homes grew, buyers began requesting unique properties on their own lots, sparking the expansion of bespoke home development.

We’ve assembled a talented group of creative and methodical professionals, united by their strategic vision, customer focus, and commitment to making a lasting impact.
