About
For years customers have called when something breaks in a home— needing help with emergencies, calming chaos, and restoring peace of mind. But, we knew there had to be a better way.
That vision took shape when Glenn Carrera officially joined forces with Shawn Nelson to launch South Bay Steward, the premiere proactive home maintenance company of the South Bay.
With deep roots in South Bay construction, Shawn brings decades of experience building and remodeling high-end homes throughout Manhattan Beach, Hermosa, and the surrounding coastal communities. Glenn brings hands-on, boots-on-the-ground construction knowledge and a sharp eye for systems, sequencing, and problem-solving—earned over years in the field, on jobs big and small.
Together, we’re rewriting what luxury home care looks like.
We don’t just wait for problems to happen—we work to prevent them. Our subscription-based maintenance program puts our team in your home regularly, inspecting, coordinating, and handling tasks before they become emergencies. When repairs are needed, we bring in trusted subcontractors, coordinate schedules, and stay accountable until the job is done right.
This isn’t property management, it’s high-level home stewardship.
South Bay Steward was created for homeowners who want peace of mind, preserved property value, and fewer surprises. We focus on keeping your systems running, your finishes protected, and your lifestyle uninterrupted. Whether you live in your home year-round or visit seasonally, we’re here to make sure everything just works.
With a growing list of loyal clients and an expanding vision for what home maintenance can be, we’re proud of what South Bay Steward is becoming—and even more excited for what’s ahead.
