I highly recommend this company. As a project manager for a federal agency, I oversaw major construction projects throughout the DMV area for many years and worked with numerous contractors. This team stands out for their professionalism, honesty, and commitment to quality. They communicate well, work closely with their customers, and are excellent problem solvers when challenges arise. Their workmanship, integrity, and customer service are outstanding. Based on my experience, they are a contractor you can trust to deliver high-quality results and stand behind their work. read more

As noted in my earlier review of AGC contractor, Gerardo and his crew were friendly, professional, neat and offered the guidance that we needed. Gerardo also assisted me in in obtaining the materials for this stone facing project on the front of my house which modernized the house's appearance considerably. Gerardo is a good listener was very responsive and patient throughout the project and always follows up when needed. Highly Recommended. read more

We chose AGC to do our mantel and fireplace remodel. He was completely professional and accomodating during our initial visit. We were impressed that he had high quality employees and subs that worked on our project. They efficiently protected our floors and family room walls during the project. Tomas was delightful to have in our home. He was punctual and hard working and always left the site clean at end of the day. The electrician, Juan Pablo of JPM Electric did an exemplary and expeditious job hard wiring the electric insert for our fireplace. The stacked stones for the wall were done by Jose Luis of C&B Masonry Designs Inc. He did an excellent job and took extra care to use the color palette of the stones to our advantage- it looks amazing! Overall, we were very pleased with the quality and timeliness of our project. We would highly recomnend this contractor. Sharon V read more

Gerardo and his crew were exceptional in my fireplace remodel. He was upfront with work that had to be performed in order to run a gas line. Very professional and did not cut corners in order to finish early. Appreciated the nice clean up after every work day. Would definitely hire him again! Kathleen read more

I have used AGC for three separate remodeling projects in my house. Each time, my vision was met or exceeded and within my projected budget. Gerardo is friendly and easy to work with. He lets you know what is expected and explains alternatives, should the need arise. As mentioned previously, I've used AGC on three occasions and Gerardo has been reliable and responsive to all texts and calls. I would, and have, recommend to a friend. read more

Gerardo with AGC Contractors is fabulous! A plumber recently came by my parents' house to fix a leak in their upstairs bathroom. After he was done repairing the leak, it was up to us to find a contractor who could do drywall repair AND paint the area. I came on Yelp to find a company who could help us do that but there were so many companies out there. I didn't know where to start, so I just sent out a bunch of requests here on Yelp and waited to see who would respond. Some companies never responded. Others said they would get back to me and never did. Still others quoted me estimates that were crazy expensive. After a couple weeks of going back and forth with different companies, I finally whittled it down to just a couple. I was immediately impressed with how Gerardo would respond quickly to my Yelp messages. I was also glad to know that they are licensed contractors. We set up a time where Gerardo would stop by and give us an in-person estimate. On the day of that appointment, Gerardo called ahead of time and showed up promptly in the timeframe we had agreed upon. He was very friendly, patient and knowledgeable. His prices were very reasonable. Our project took a couple days to complete and Gerardo was so good at communicating and working with us to find days/times that would work for both of us. All the contractors who showed up at our home did a great job with taking the time to cover up areas to prevent dust or paint from getting on the floor, tables, walls, etc. The repairs look awesome and we are so pleased with AGS Contractors' work and plan to contact them in the future. Gerardo was even so kind to help me install a new light fixture in our kitchen when he was done completing our project. It was totally spur of the moment, so I would have understood if he had said no. I appreciated how he went above and beyond what was expected of him and yet still had a smile on his face throughout the entire visit. Even though he had another appointment after me, he still took the time to do this extra job and make sure I was completely satisfied with it before he left. All this was done at no extra charge. That made an impression on me. It showed me how Gerardo puts the customer first and isn't just out to make extra money, but to do a skilled, professional job that makes everyone happy. This company is topnotch and I highly recommend them to my friends and family, and anyone who is looking for a licensed contractor in the Sacramento area (they work within 60 miles of the Natomas area, so that includes Elk Grove, Roseville, Rocklin, etc). Thanks, Gerardo and AGS Contractors for your amazing work! read more

Gerardo and his team were simply amazing. I cannot recommend him highly enough! He was communicative at every step and explained all steps in the process and was done on time! Everyone he brought into my home was courteous and kind. His work is top notch and he did not cut any corners. As the project went along he updated me and had no problem with my questions along the way. I have recommended him to numerous friends and will absolutely be using him and his team again. read more

AGC Contractor - Fireplace - General Contractors Near Me

I hired AGC contractor to build out a fire place accent wall in my new build home. Gerardo and his team is top shelf. They are reliable, professional, and extremely skilled. He gave me an estimated start and completion date at the start of contract agreement. AGC finished on time as promised. I typically hear horror stories from friends and family that the contractors they hire do half the work or don't even finish the job. I would not hesitate to recommend AGC to any friend or family member. I am beyond thrilled with the finished product. I am also looking forward to working with AGC in the near future.

It's been over a year and I'm still in love with my updated bathroom. Gerardo walked me through the process of replacing my bathtub with a walk in shower and anytime I had a question he was very responsive. He also installed updated bathroom fixtures, helped me replace an old toilet and other fixtures. When it comes time to update my second bathroom I will definitely be calling him again. read more

One of the best experiences I've ever had with a contractor. From the initial consultation all the way through the final walk-through, Gerardo arrived when he said he would and communicated clearly through the whole process. He listened to what I wanted, provided useful insight and suggestions, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Reasonable, high quality work and a personable contractor, couldn't ask for much more read more

Gerardo and his team transformed an ugly, old fireplace into a beautiful alcove to house a wood stove. It looks like a piece of art. We are so happy with his work, and we have already received many compliments on the with that was done. He has great communication throughout the process and was able to start work right away. I would definitely recommend AGC contractors. read more

Gerardo and his crew were excellent from beginning to end. Its the little things that instill so much trust in what he does. He arrives on time. He gives you an accurate estimate. He double checks the details. He meticulously covers the work area so your space is clean at the end of each day. He's pleasant to deal with and keeps you involved in all the creative decisions as you wish. Added to that he does really excellent work with much attention to detail!! This is the second job he has done for us and won't likely be the last. Gerardo and his crew did a remodel on our fireplace area. He removed the old fireplace, built a hearth that we didn't have before, installed stacked stone and travertine, installed a new Valor H5 fireplace and chimney, placed a new mantel and finally mounted our 55 inch TV in this new space. He also routed the cords thru the wall so it seems completely wireless. Walls patched, new paint as needed and Wow, its all done. If I can include pictures here I will. Its beautiful. Gerardo's attention to detail, eye on costs, reliability, creativity, knowledge and personality make him a first choice for home improvement services. We highly recommend Cardena's Handyman Services. read more

When I decided to have my bedroom, window converted to a slider, I already knew that I would hire AGC Contractor (Gerardo) again because he did such a fantastic job on my fireplace. When we scheduled the install date, Gerardo gave me a couple of options, when I picked the date, he told me that his stucco guy would be coming to do the stucco a different day and wanted to make sure I was okay with that, and I was. Gerardo arrived on time and completed his portion of the work in a day and a half. Once again, AGC Contractor didn't disappoint, he left my house spotless and the work looks perfect. I LOVE my new slider and my new window. read more

Hands- down I would not recommend him he's not honest .. read more

I am very happy with my decision to go with Gerardo and his crew. He was highly recommended by my co-worker. I was remodeling my master bathroom and redoing the floors/counters/backsplash in other bathroom. I had three estimates done and Gerardo's was the best and very reasonable. Francisco and Thomas are very friendly, professional, and efficient. Always on time and a do a great job on cleaning up. They were very careful of my wood floors. Always checking with me as they go to make sure they are doing everything I want and how I want it done. Even when I added a couple of things last minute they were able to accommodate without issue. I would highly recommend them! read more

Gerardo and his crew are top notch! Had them over to do a bathroom remodel and they did such a good job I had them do painting, recessed lighting in my kitchen, paint my bannister, and some other things. Prices were very reasonable and the best thing of all is hey showed up in time every day and stayed until the job was done. No waiting no hassles... I will be hiring him again! You can't go wrong with Gerardo! read more

Good work ,but 1 small problem, I think he is going to correct it... customer satisfaction is important.

I found Gerardo and his partner, Francisco on Craigslist because I needed some work done in my kitchen and my bathrooms. He answered immediately and sounded really respectful over the phone. He scheduled me in for the next day to take a look at my house, that way he could give me an accurate estimate for the work. A couple of days later, he emailed me a detailed quote that was reasonable and within my budget, so I told him that I would order the materials and let him know once they arrived, so that I could scheduled the work. It took about a month for the materials to arrive, but I kept in constant communication via text to make sure the materials I ordered would work for my project. He helped answer all my questions, including what kind of paint he would use on my kitchen cabinets (because i wanted to make sure that it was going to be durable and would last). He was super responsive and wasn't bothered by the number of questions I asked (because I like to have all my information before I commit to anything). When the materials arrived, I scheduled the work. He helped me order new cabinet drawers and doors. He had his cousin Eddie (whose a professional painter) paint the cabinet doors, drawers, as well as the actual cabinets (they were a ugly oak color). He built new cabinet shelving and replaced the cabinet molding. He also replaced the flooring, back splash and installed a new hood range. In addition to the kitchen, he replaced 2 bathroom vanities and mirrors, as well a toilet and glass shower door. We ran into some bumps along the way with the materials, but Gerardo helped me resolve all the issues. The results speak for themselves. I couldn't be happier with the results and I am so glad I found him to do the work. I highly recommend him and Francisco! They are both trustworthy, honest and have great personalities, aside from doing amazing work. No matter how big or small the project, they can do it! read more

I am pleased to give a 5-star review to Cardenas Handyman Services for the level of service and professionalism that Gerardo Cardenas provided. I needed a window raised and replaced, some kitchen cabinets and granite countertop extended in my kitchen, a doorway widened with an arch installed on top, and my oudoor brick BBQ island cut to new dimensions and retiled for a new grill installation. His work was top notch, was completed in a timely manner, and was consistent with his quote. When Gerardo first came out to my home, he took the time to really understand what I was asking for, taking many measurements and copious notes, and explaining to me how he thought the work would be done. He was very courteous and professional. I received his estimate in a reasonable amount of time, and he divided it it up by job as I requested. He also didn't hesitate to answer all of my questions. Gerardo and his assistant, Francisco, did an incredible job in all of their work. The new cabinets match the old ones exactly, the seam between the old and new granite is seemingly nonexistent, and the paint and texture on the patched walls match so well it looks just like the original walls. Above all, Gerardo is honest. When the new granite was being installed, he called me to let me know that the existing countertops were not completely level and asked me how I would like to proceed. He takes his work very seriously and makes sure that it is done right the first time around and that the customer is happy with the job done. I will definitely be calling on Cardenas Handyman Services again for future projects. read more

He never returned my calls so it's bad business to run a shop and not respond to customers!!!

I called Mr. Cardenas and asked for a quote to install a glass shower door. Mr. Cardenas was very professional and was able to give me a quote over the phone. His price was very reasonable therefore, we decided to have him install the shower doors. Mr. Cardenas and his partner Francisco showed up to our home promptly. Mr. Cardenas carefully read the instructions and he and his partner took time to carefully install the glass shower door. There were no surprises when Mr. Cardenas and his partner finished installing the door, we paid the amount I was quoted over the phone. My husband and I are very satisfied with the work Mr. Cardenas and his partner did. We will definitely use their services again. I recommend Mr. Cardenas to friends and family! Gracias Señor Cardenas! read more

This review is long overdue. My husband and I have taken on several remodeling projects over the years. Some have gone better than others. One was a total nightmare. We hired Gerardo and his crew for a full house remodel (kitchen, bathrooms, floors, baseboards, paint throughout, etc...). I was incredibly nervous about the timing because I'm aware of how stressful projects of this magnitude can be and I was about 6 months pregnant at the time. We were hoping to move into the new house before the baby arrived. Gerardo did an absolutely amazing job and he ended up finishing earlier than anticipated! It was our best remodeling project to date. Gerardo is a true professional. He is hard-working, honest, reliable, and trust worthy. His tile guy is excellent! Things come up on large projects and when working with the same person over an extended period of time, but Gerardo was always patient and very easy to work with. He is good at his job and he is a genuinely nice and good human being. I'm the type to get many quotes before making a final decision, so I also happen to know that Gerardo's pricing is very reasonable. I love a good value and Gerardo definitely is! read more

Gerardo has by far exceeded any of our expectations. I initially contacted him asking for a quote to remodel our 2 bathrooms. He responded very quickly- we scheduled a home visit and within a week, he provided us a quote that clearly outlined what each task was and what it included (and didn't). Once we had the quotes (after comparing it with several others we had), we decided to go with Gerardo. We had him remove shower tub and flooring and replacing it with tile. Once Gerardo added us to the schedule, 1 week prior to starting the work, he called and stopped by the house again to make sure we had all the materials and to answer any additional questions. On the first day of the remodel, he showed up promptly on time like we agree. Gerardo and Francisco (along with another gentleman) began by prepin' the area. they finished each day (took 2 1/2 days) by 530-6pm, which we appreciated as it allowed us to enjoy the evening with our normal family activities. When the work was all complete, Gerardo and his team did a very thorough job at cleaning up. They did an outstanding job on the tub and tile installation. We were so impressed with Gerardo that he's definitely on top of our list for future home projects. read more

My husband and I are very pleased to write this review to Gerardo and his assistant. When we first reached out to him we weren't sure we wanted to hire his services because of his location being far from our home. It turned out that he was very punctual, did what he did and knows his work very well. He is very methodical and into the details and we loved that. He installed a new patio sliding door in the master bedroom and his craftsmanship is really of great quality. You can tell he likes to do things right, and goes the extra mile. The only suggestion I would make is to ensure they cover all furniture, including the floors, a little bit messy because of all dust. Not a big deal! he and his helper deserve a great review. Thank you for the hard work and great quality put into it. And glad you enjoyed the food choices in our area. read more

Gerardo and Francisco are outstanding! I have used them for several jobs in the past, just recently (See Tom R's Review.....sorry Tom, they were doing a million different things over at my new home around this week) They have done so much work for my wife and I in the past that we called them back to do general demolition, some electrical, drywall repair, canned lighting installation (Gerardo is a spider monkey!), as well as building a beautiful hearth. In the past he has done tiling. In the future he will be repairing and adding stairs to our deck...hopefully sooner rather than later. Gerardo and Francisco do excellent work at a very reasonable price. Both are always very respectful, friendly, and very conscious to not leave a mess. Gerardo will listen to what you want and make it happen. He has always arrived when he says he will, and is very quick to return calls. He provided detailed bids quickly as well. Gerardo and Francisco have been over here so much that they are more like friends. In our huge renovation project, Gerardo was a huge stress relief because we knew that we could count on him. I don't want them to get busy with other jobs, so I highly recommend them.....but only reluctantly! ;^) Gerardo, your work is exceptional. You are professional and personable. Thank you so much! You guys killed it over here! Once we get the mantles on the fireplaces I'll get them uploaded. Beautiful work. The drywall repair and demolition was great too...but not something you want a picture of for other people reading this!!! :^) read more

I left a VM with a brief description of the work and did not receive a response. So I send a text message after couple days with a description of what needed to be done. I never got any response. This is poor customer service. I recommend you save your time and contact someone else instead. read more

We've had Gerardo do work on our home prior to move in, this time he and his crew were here to do our dry rot repair which was extensive. Also after the repair they painted the house. During demolition the crew uncovered some shady work our original home builder had hidden. What was hidden was that they did not properly put water proof barrier under the T111. Gerardo's crew replaced all damaged areas and properly installed water proof barriers. The house looked brand new! In the process they pressure washed the house before painting started and blew off our roof and cleaned the gutters. Another job done was the installation of new light fixtures outside, as well as caulking our windows. The whole paint job took just 1 day. These guys work hard and FAST!!! EXCELLENT detail was paid and such cool easy going friendly workers!! The prior work we'd had done was scraping the popcorn ceilings and painting the entire interior of the home. He's also trimmed our counter tops to get our new stove to fit and did an excellent job!! Next up is our bathrooms and kitchen remodel. We have recommended him to family and friends. Gerardo is extremely professional and top notch. We enjoy working with him and he produces stellar work. Highly recommend him for ANY project!!! read more

Gerardo was a pleasure to work with. He was extremely professional and always honored his word. He was contentious and careful when installing our fireplace. We built a custom home which required him to make two trips, one to initially set the fireplace and another to fire it up once the house was ready. Throughout the process he always answered his phone and was ready and willing to help. I'd highly recommend AGC! read more

Agree with other reviewers. This guy visited us twice, once with his worker to get an idea about the job...and then silence. Never got back to us with either an estimate or a basic courtesy call. We wasted a month to schedule home visitations for him. Two things to know-he's not a handyman but a contractor. The person he brought over (the real worker) didn't speak a word of English. So unless you are fluent in Spanish, there's no way to communicate without an intervention once the work starts. Lastly, since this guy flaked on us, I can't comment about the job quality. Given that he has such poor (or non-existent) interpersonal and communication skills I wouldn't have hired him anyway. I would be more worried if he disappeared midway of a job. Good luck. read more

Owner came out. Said he would get me an estimate in three days. After 7 texts and two phone calls, zero response. No contact at all. Three weeks later still nothing. Very disappointed with the way I have been completely ignored. This is no way to run a business. read more

I have 2 bathrooms needing toilets and new tile flooring and base floor repair. I left Gerardo phone messages both in English and Spanish, texted him and left one on his "request a quote" all in about 2 days. I never got a response. It says on his page he responds in about a day. 5 days go by and again I leave messages in English and another in Spanish because his phone message is also in Spanish. And I texted him again. I waited another day or so, nothing!!!!...I left 1 last message asking him if he was out of business or super busy and if he could be professional and reply for once letting me know what the heck is going on with him!! I have hired many trades from Yelp and this has never happened. All have replied in a day or so, sometimes showing up late but not like what Gerardo does. I've heard that some businesses won't reply if they don't like the job request and I think this is very possible here. FINALLY Gerardo leaves a text now after 9 days and numerous messages. Maybe it clicked he thought I was a bit ticked off and may write a bad review??. Well he says he's sorry for not getting back and that he's booked for a month, thanks anyways, bye bye.!!!!..Now I do think he didn't want the job. To bad, not sure about his work skills but I'll keep looking. FAIR WARNING!! read more

I am very happy with the work Gerardo did on my bathroom and kitchen remodel! He an his crew were extremely professional and punctual and very reasonable prices. I would definitely recommend Cardenas Handyman Services! read more

Gerardo removed our popcorn ceilings, retextured, then he painted our house. He also adjusted several doors and installed smoke alarms. We quoted several contractors before him and he was by far the most affordable and the job was done very well and quickly. He also trimmed the counter so that our new stove could fit in. If you want quality at a reasonable price then I would highly recommend him! We will surely use him again for home repairs. read more

Gerardo and his crew are absolutely incredible!! I have been a Realtor for over twenty years and have worked with more contractors than I can remember during my career - Gerardo is definitely one of the best ever! He and his crew did some fairly extensive work on my personal home and were fast, clean, reasonable and did excellent work. Can't recommend him highly enough! read more
