Indio is the desert’s working city — famous worldwide for its festival season, grounded the rest of the year in neighborhoods that range from mid-century originals to fast-growing new tracts. It is a place of rental demand, family homes, and small businesses, all sharing the same desert realities: serious heat, hard water, and housing stock that spans seventy years of building styles.
That mix is why a multi-trade GC fits Indio. A festival-season rental needs durable updates and reliable air conditioning; a mid-century home needs its plumbing and sewer lateral brought into the modern era; a growing family needs an addition or ADU. With the A, B, C-36, and C-20 licenses in-house, we scope each project honestly — systems first, finishes second — and one team is accountable for all of it.
Construction & Remodeling Services in Indio, CA
Air conditioning is the heartbeat of every Indio home, and our C-20 team installs, replaces, and repairs complete systems built for desert summers — proper sizing, proper airflow, and equipment that does not quit during a heat wave. We also keep rental properties competitive with fast, durable turnarounds: kitchens and baths that stand up to tenant turnover, plumbing repairs that actually last, and water heaters replaced before they flood a garage.
For the city’s older neighborhoods, we do the deep work: whole-home repipes for mineral-damaged supply lines, sewer camera inspections that find root intrusion and separations, hydro jetting, and trenchless rehabilitation backed by a 20-year lining warranty. Growing households get room additions and ADUs — including casitas suited to multigenerational desert living — and local businesses get commercial tenant improvement and multi-trade repairs from the same accountable crew.

Why Indio Property Owners Choose Mars
Most construction projects fall apart in the gaps between trades. The general contractor blames the plumber, the plumber blames the HVAC tech, and the homeowner is left playing referee. Mars Construction Industries Corp was built to eliminate that problem. We have been a licensed general contractor in Southern California backed by 30+ years of hands-on experience, and we hold four CSLB licenses in-house: A General Engineering, B General Building, C-36 Plumbing, and C-20 HVAC — CSLB #1138550.
That means one accountable team from the first walkthrough to the final punch list. When your project needs a repipe, a new sewer lateral, and an HVAC changeout in the same week, you make one call and we sequence all of it. No finger-pointing, no scheduling gaps, no “that’s not my trade.”
We are licensed, bonded, and insured, and we carry SB-PW and SB(Micro) small business certifications. Our family of brands — 911 Drain Lines for drain and sewer work, ADU Cities for accessory dwelling units, Get Your Roof Certified, and Universal Inspect for property inspections — means the same company you trust with your remodel can also camera your sewer line, build your ADU, or inspect a property before you buy it.
