Choosing a contractor is quite nerve wracking, especially in the midst of a pandemic while we're all running out of space in our homes trying to figure out how to make things work. We met with a lot of different contractors to discuss our garage-to-office conversion but ultimately chose Michael and Bela Development, not only because we saw them previously do great work on our neighbor's home, but also because Michael was from the beginning very professional and knowledgable. The quote was very competitive and, like Michael, not the "bullshit" kind. Michael is a straight forward guy who listens closely to what you want and is upright and honest about what it will take to get there. From start to finish, he was very responsive and handled any speed bump in the construction or the occasional miscommunication with the crew exactly the way you'd want to. The crew worked fast, effectively and respectfully and we will call Michael again just as soon as it is time for our next project. read more

This was a fun quick bathroom remodel project thanks to Eric and the Bela Development team. We were looking for a reliable company who can remodel our simple bathroom and take care of all the permits and city paper work. Bela and Eric were able to execute everything without any issues and very quickly considering the long waiting periods for inspections due to Covid. Very happy with the workmanship and communication the team brought and looking forward to use Bela Development again when we remodel our kitchen! read more

After interviewing a few contractors we have decided to go with Bela Development design and build. We wanted a firm who can take care of the architectural engineering design and the build. Construction took place in a very hectic time during the beginning of covid 19, at this time we didn't know how it would impact our project schedule. Bela did above and beyond to execute as fast as possible (wasn't easy during covid ). Tomer is one of a kind executer who will walk with you from day one to key day. He took care of all kinds of unexpected problems. I will highly recommend this company. I'm looking forward to do another project with them in the near future. read more

These Guys are the Real Deal!!! I wish all of the people I work with will be at this level of communication, quality and most important HONESTLY! I will definitely work with them again! Thank you read more

This review took awhile to write since I had to take into account the whole experience and weed out what's my fault. Overall, Bela Development is an excellent firm and I would gladly do business with them again. I worked with Ben and Michael. First off, Michael, who is the manager assigned to my project, is a top notch person. He was very sincere, professional yet easy to work with throughout the entire process. This was my first major remodel and my resources were limited. I had to do as much homework as I could. Michael would explain stages of the remodel and always asked if I was happy with the results as it progressed. My main learning experience from this remodel is that communication is key. Michael constantly communicated any issues or updates. He made it easier, but I should have relayed my opinions and thoughts more often, which is on me. At the end of the remodel, Michael and Ben made sure I was happy and satisfied with the finished project. Then they followed up months later to check in on me and fixed any small details. I'll definitely hit up Ben and Michael for my next project. read more

I had a very pleasant experience working with Michael at Bela Development. We had our home foundation earthquake retrofitted, and their services were prompt, professional, and the price was very reasonable. Michael agreed to match the price with a competitor, and he kept me posted on progress with detailed before and after photos of every fix. I would recommend the services of Michael and Bela Development to anyone in a heartbeat. read more

Just finished our bathroom remodel. The usual nightmare that is associated with contractors was avoided by hiring Bela Development and having Yossi as our manager on the job. He was mostly on site every day and made sure that any problems were quickly corrected. Even when there were a few issues, he "always" took care of them expediently and effortlessly. If there was an award for patience and stresslessness, the award should be given to Yossi. Most importantly, his word was golden. I will never forget something he said at the very beginning of our project. "I will take care of your job just like it was my mother's house," and he did! I will also extend kudos to his foreman, Enrique. The team works well together and I would definitely recommend them. read more

Ben and Itamar were awesome!

Working with them was seamless and the resulting work they did couldn't have been better. I'll definitely be working with them on future projects. read more

Bela came very highly recommended by one of our good friends so we used them to do a bit of work to our new house. They installed 4 skylights, replaced and installed all of our recessed lighting, knocked down a wall, and expanded our fireplace in a matter of 4 weeks. We were out of town most of the time that the work was being done but they were extremely communicative the whole way through and we felt very comfortable having their team there even while we were out of town. Overall, we had a really great experience working with the Bela team and will definitely hire them again in the future. read more

I spoke to Ben Eyal (the owner) and had a wonderful experience. He is very kind and genuine, with a vast amount of experience. He was open to answer all my question (and I had many) very patiently. If you want quality work, would 100% recommend working with him on any development project. Do not waste your time going to anyone else!! Thank you again Ben! read more

I am extremely happy with the results of my floors. Ben and his crew were polite, easy to work with and professional. No mess was left behind which is a huge plus for me. They kept their word making the entire process seamless. I highly recommend them. read more

Ben and itamar really helped with their work. I'd recommend them with absolute confidence to any friend or family member. I'm always skeptical about people I hire but these guys were fantastic. read more

Bela Development specifically Ben and Nathan were very helpful to our family during the whole project. We had a water damage which ruined our kitchen and dining area floors and also including some of our cabinets. Out of 8 contractors that I got a quote from, this company was just simply the best. They are quick in getting back to us when we had questions and they made sure we are contented with the work every step of the way . Would definitely hire Bela Development again and refer them to family and friends!! Thanks guys !!! read more

Bela Development recently did a full remodel on my kitchen. Very professional, impeccable quality and done within the promised deadline! Couldn't be happier with my now show stopping kitchen! :) read more

Itamar and ben did a great job. We had a leak under our sink and the floor and the cabinets where all damaged and moldy. On top of it it was Christmas and we had an inspector coming to view our property in 7 calendar days. They worked nonstop to get everything finished on time. Worked around are nanny and are children. Worked night and day - kept the work site clean at all times. Found the cabinets - found the floors - super lovely people to be around - smart - engaging and all around very professional. Kept us to date as we traveled for Christmas with many photos. You will be in really good hands hiring these guys. Got super lucky and found them on Yelp. read more

We did our kitchen with Bela after looking for the right contractor - Bela is a well oiled construction and design machine , they designed it all a-z and delivered as promised, will definitely recommend and work with them in the future thanks Bela. read more

Bela did a great job on our bathroom remodel. They were extremely well-organized, ordering the next inspection as soon as the prior one was finished so that there would be no delay waiting to schedule. I have undergone many remodels and construction projects including other bathrooms and this is the first time a company has worked straight through without work pauses. The bathroom was a complete redo and was finished in a month and a half. The work quality is also excellent, as far as I can tell so far (it certainly looks perfect). I also liked that in addition to our main job supervisor (David), other supervisors came in to quality check. The team's responsiveness was also excellent. And there were no surprises in terms of cost. I added a few extras and was given detailed pricing before agreeing to the change order. read more

My experience with BE Construction has been amazing. Their work is delivered on-time and on-budget, and to say that Ben goes the extra mile to make sure that you are satisfied with every detail would be an understatement. I used BE Construction to remodel my kitchen. The entire team was very professional and highly efficient and they worked extra hard to make sure I was happy with the result of their work staying within my budget. I ended up with a completely remodeled kitchen that looks just like I pictured it and is so much more functional than it was before. Remodeling, or any kind of renovation can be very stressful- but having BE Construction really turned this process into a pleasant and fun experience. I was very satisfied with the overall quality of the work and the final cost and highly recommend BE Construction for any remodeling projects. read more

Ben and his crew are amazing! They work quickly and efficiently. Not only did they complete the job more quickly that I had planned, they also added several design suggestions, which actually saved me money and enhanced the usable space. Highly recommend and look forward to working with them again! read more

We bought our house inheriting city code violations on the exterior, not realizing what an ordeal it would be. There were structural issues which were compounded by being located in the Hollywood Hills. We used a structural engineering company that was basically grandfathered by the previous owners, a company we wouldn't recommend. But we most definitely recommend Bela Development who came to our rescue when finishing the project and took over where the engineers left off. They did a ton of work to get us up to code and create our dream home - finishing outdoor stairs/railings, a floating deck, installing a wood ceiling, electrical, repainting the entire house, exterior hardscaping (tiles, pavers, etc.), renovations on an office, installing a hanging chair, building and installing a hot tub... The list goes on. Yossi was our point person and Enrique was our foreman and both were fantastic - they listened and explained every step of the process. I would highly suggest them for any home renovations. Attached are pictures as proof. read more

We couldn't be happier with the dryscape Tzah and his crew created at our residence. From our initial meeting to discuss the work through completion, Tzah was very patient with our detailed decision making. He brought along professional opinions and design sensibilities that enhanced our design, however he never pushed us to a different direction than what we were looking for. He brought many samples and photos of materials so we knew exactly what was being installed and we never felt like we were in the dark. He met with us at tree nurseries so we could choose specifically the plants/trees that would be installed. He was always very reliable, answering phone calls, emails and texts. The job was completed swiftly, yet professionally. We highly recommend Tzah's expertise for your landscaping + hardscaping needs, you definitely will not be disappointed! read more

I worked with Bela Development for a complete remodel of my kitchen. Tom and his team were incredibly professional and hardworking and they always went the extra mile to ensure that things were done properly and efficiently. I felt completely supported during the entire renovation, as Tom and the staff always took the time to provide progress updates, listen to my concerns, or help me with design issues. Bela Development is an honest, top-notch company and I highly recommend them for any kind of construction work. Thank you for the amazing new kitchen! read more

I've been wanting to renovate the kitchen for a while now and when I finally got the opportunity to do so, I found BE.

I met Ben at the airport in Austin. We were both waiting on a delayed flight to LA. I could tell from his phone conversation that he was a builder or contractor. Since I was considering the remodel of my master bath, I started a conversation that turned out to be wait-time well spent for a change. Ben and his partner Itamar completed the bathroom remodel without any issues or delays, and on budget. In my past experience, contractors make something simple into something complex. These guys don't do that. With Bela Development, you will receive exactly what you expect, and their team of workers are meticulous and considerate of your home. I couldn't be more satisfied and will refer Bela Development whenever I have the opportunity to do so. read more

We chose to work with Bela Development due to their efficiency, honesty, and professionalism during our initial calls, visit, and quote. These qualities remained throughout our patio and closet remodel. Ben and project manager Tom were easy to reach, understanding of our time constraints, and addressed all questions. Office manager Ellie is extremely kind, organized, and efficient. The quality of work was impressive and we are very happy with our new French door, closet, patio, and stucco work. Costs were fair ad there were no surprises. Any future projects of ours will be handled by Bela, and we are happy to recommend them! read more

I hired Bela Development to do a 650 square foot addition to my home and convert my garage to an ADU. After interviewing several other contractors, I knew in my gut as soon as I met with Ben that Bela Development was the right fit. Not many people can say they would be happy to have their contractor over to dinner by the end of a project but I can. Tom and Ben exceeded my expectations as contractors. Not only do they operate by the highest ethical standards but they also went above and beyond their responsibilities to help troubleshoot issues, assist with design dilemmas and make changes when I changed my mind. Tom was on the construction site every day and was there to walk me through even the smallest design details to make sure everything looked right and to my liking. No big project is without hiccups but Tom and Ben navigated them with patience and integrity. I highly recommend Bela!! read more

Ben and his crew helped me achieve my dream kitchen! Their team was so helpful and courteous and kind. Literally, couldn't have asked for a better team. Job well done, will definitely use them again! read more

After major repairs to my gas and sewer lines I was left with three gaping holes in my hardscape that required patching. I contacted Bela Development to get a quote and, from the first site visit through completion of the project, Ben and the entire staff and crew with Bela Development were a pleasure to deal with and the work exceeded my expectations. In fact, during the project Ben was able add on a quick repair to my front gate. I had tried for months to get a "handy man" over to fix it but they would either fail to return my calls or they would not show up for a scheduled appointment. I highly recommend Bela Development. read more

Been a pleasure working with a professional design and build firm who does all the hard work for you and guides you through the process from a-z . Ben and Itamar are non stoppable partners who really understand the construction design, architecture, and interior design. Finally found a contractor which I feel safe to put my money in his hands, a complete remodel (3 bathrooms, kitchen, floors, doors, electrical) is done beautifully all the way to the precise details. Thanks guys read more

I found Ben and Itamar via a Yelp request for quote. Itamar called me back within a few hours of my request, on a Saturday, while he was on vacation. If you want vision, creativity, high quality and craftsmanship, this is your team. They are not the cheapest and they will tell you so; but you get what you pay for. Itamar, Ben and the whole team have a great work ethic and are nice to work with - through it all, they transformed my old, leaky, dated bathroom to something beautiful and magazine-worthy. I'm happy to be a reference for Bela Remodeling. read more

I had the pleasure of working with Ben himself. My bathroom apartment was destroyed after the top floor leaked into my bathroom. A close friend of mine recommended BE Construction so I went ahead and gave them a call. Ben and his crew were able to come out immediately and get the job done in a timely manner. They are truly amazing at what they do and are so professional every step of the way. They were very clean and didn't leave a mess. My bathroom looks even better than what it looked like before. I will definitely use BE Construction in the future. read more

We are really happy with the work ben and his team did! They are very responsive and we love the results!
