Kitchen remodel
Mallory B.

AJ was amazing to work with from start to finish of this project. We have worked with a lot of contractors over the years to fix an old house in Berkeley and I will never work with another contractor again! AJ's communication was above and beyond and the work was outstanding. He has a commitment to excellence that I have not seen with another contractor. His communication around timeline was also incredible and the fact that the project was completed in the timeline stated, given a lot of material delays that were out of his control, was outstanding. I highly HIGHLY recommend working with A.J. and his team! The one thing I would say is that if you are not a designer, you might want to have a designer involved. A.J. gave incredible advice but there were a lot of questions along the way because he was so committed to it being exactly what we wanted and wanted to get it right. I really appreciated this of course but some of the choice points were difficult for me to answer so a designer would have been helpful who could have modeled out what different final products could look like. The kitchen turned out AMAZING though and I wouldn't change anything!

AJ is a great and super quick communicator. He often would respond within minutes which was great for me as a nervous first time homeowner. This was my first big construction project and he was very encouraging the whole way through. He would offer suggestions if I needed them and took a lot of pride in making sure everything came out right. He was proactive about communicating with my neighbors. They found him so helpful that they're even considering him for one of their upcoming renovations! Even though the renovations were completed months ago, AJ is still around to answer any questions I might have (I just texted him today). I love my new bathrooms and would definitely hire AJ again.

Canseco went above and beyond for our family home remodel. We completely redid three bathrooms and a kitchen, plus new flooring and other updates in the rest of the house, which hadn't been touched since the parents first purchased in the 70s. The entire process was surprisingly smooth and straightforward because AJ was amazingly organized, communicative, responsive, and helpful. Everything was completed on time and under budget with no surprises or complications. AJ also provided many super helpful referrals for materials and vendors, and everyone he recommended was fantastic as well. Canseco was gracious and accommodating with our family's needs and we couldn't be happier with the results. I have referred Canseco to another friend who also used them for a substantial remodel and they had rave reviews too. I will definitely never bother trying another contractor in the area.

The most recent bathroom we completed together.

AJ and his team go above and beyond to complete the most beautiful, functional projects. I am a designer and work with Canseco on many projects and constantly am finding myself thanking the team for all they do- from their high level of communication to their incredible attention to detail, I cannot recommend them more. They have every trade you could need for a project (foreman, painters, handymen, etc), in house and work tirelessly to get a job done. Their team has even helped me when I've been in a pinch to get a design project cleaned and staged- the guys were helping assemble furniture, moving staging, cleaning floors- all just to help me get a job done in time for a client! Thank you AJ for being the best, I love working with you all.

AJ was great. He communicated well to let me know he had to reschedule, arrived on time, stayed until the job was done, and cleaned up. Solid framing job and professional. I would hire them again for sure.

Shower and painting after

We wanted to remodel the shower, repair the walls, and paint the bathroom. AJ and his team were super professional throughout the entire process, and they went above and beyond what we expected. I was impressed by AJ's team's work ethic, skill, and attention to detail. AJ himself was very responsive, transparent, and helpful. Overall the work was a great value and I would highly recommend working with Canseco Construction.

Bathroom remodel (After)

AJ & his team are extremely professional, respectful & very good at what they do! They were able to flip our bathroom on such a short notice & they did amazing!!!!! I definitely recommend them. :) I will let the photos speak for themselves!

Posted this on Google reviews and it got hidden to the public. I think it's important folks know…read moreabout this experience so see below: ______________________ I had such a bad experience with Mission Home which I know will look bonkers given the 5 star reviews. I was definitely persuaded by these reviews - and now will question every business that has 5 star reviews. Do your homework and don't be fooled. Project took much longer than what it should have because they were disorganized and would forget certain things (the foreman would even admit that the PM should have told me certain things!) that I would have imagined a contractor had down pat in terms of sequencing. They use some subcontractors and you are at the mercy of their schedules. They just are not organized (you will do a lot of the reminding, checking in, following up, and certain things still may not happen). They failed inspections meaning more cost (it is their job to pass these! It says this in any contract!) If it seemed as though I was questioning something, the PM got defensive and sometimes unprofessional, gaslighting me in a very aggressive manner. I saved the communication, in fact. The people I worked with directly were young and it showed in the almost-too-casual style of communication and lack of professionalism. I surrendered towards the end and just wanted the project done and everyone gone. I feel completely foolish that I went with the significantly higher estimate thinking it would offer a smooth, superior experience. The actual people who did the work worked hard though and did nice work - hence the two stars. But at the end of the day, it's actually hard to enjoy the work as I am reminded by the months of bad experiences - up to the very end. You can find more experienced contractors out there for equal quality of workmanship and for a more competitive price. I am using a different contractor now for other work at the property - it's a 180 degree difference - they have a dedicated team for my project, meaning time to completion is more accurate and on time; they have a dedicated person to procure the finishes and fixtures, not myself; they are way more organized and even provided me a timeline of what to expect and communicate with me what time they are showing up and what progress was made that day (!!); they are bringing a truly expert eye with attention to detail that ELEVATES the space and are teaching me to ask things I didn't even know I should KNOW to ask; and most importantly, I feel truly comfortable asking questions without defensiveness and aggressive steamrolling in their answers. I received none of this level of care or expertise with MHR, and I want you to know that you should expect these things!!!

Try to get some basic quote range but they say no, they cannot do that and we have to schedule a…read moresite visit even with the measurements and picture I provide. This makes no sense because we just want to get a ballpark to see if it's even make sense to continue. But anyway, on the date of the site visit, the guy come without any tool for measurements and for note taking. The guy just spent like 20 mins walking around the house and said he will get back to us with a quote. But I never hear back from them since. I think the company is very picky on clients and like to see if they have enough money to pay for their service. If they think we cannot afford it, they will just cut all the communications.

Prime Design & Build

Prime Design & Build

We hired Prime Design for a home remodel project, but unfortunately the experience has been very…read moredisappointing. There have been multiple unresolved issues with the quality of work and follow-through. One example is an LED light that continues to flicker. It has been more than six months, with many calls and text messages, but the issue still has not been fixed. Another example is damage to our garage cabinet, where a hole was created during the work. We are still waiting for this to be repaired as well. Overall, the lack of timely resolution and poor communication after the project has been extremely frustrating.

We contracted Prime Design & Build to remodel two bathrooms, a laundry room, a staircase, and to…read moreinstall hardwood flooring. Overall, the project went well, and we're happy with the final results. Bryan, our foreman, was a strong asset to the project. Even though he was managing multiple jobs at the same time, his responsiveness and willingness to go out of his way to address our concerns made a big difference. Because we were home throughout the process, we were able to catch issues early and communicate them directly to Bryan, who consistently followed through to resolve them. What Went Well: * The tile and flooring subcontractors were excellent - their craftsmanship and attention to detail truly stood out. * Bryan, our foreman, was responsive to texts and phone calls, listened to our concerns, and made sure they were addressed. He even designed a bi-fold closet door for us, and helped pick up all the material to build it. * Bryan also took the initiative to handle several unfinished items himself, which we really appreciated. * The post-build cleaners were top-notch and left the space in pristine condition. * Throughout the project, everyone we interacted with was professional, courteous, and conscientious. There were no conflicts or issues, which made the experience comfortable for us. Areas for Improvement: * The timeline was a pain point. While we were originally told the project would take 6-8 weeks, it ended up stretching to 12 weeks. * The design process fell short of expectations. Because Prime's in-house designers weren't available, our design work was outsourced. We only received a full design package for the master bathroom. As a result, we ended up creating our own renderings for the other rooms to help communicate our vision to the team. That said, we were very happy with the design and material selections for the master bathroom they did complete. We just wish the same level of attention and design support had been provided for the rest of the project. * At times, resource availability was limited, likely due to workers being assigned to multiple jobs. This led to workflow inefficiencies and delays. Toward the end of our renovation, our foreman Bryan had to personally step in to complete several tasks, such as installing faucets, shelving, and baseboards. He managed to get it done in between site visits and meetings, which we appreciated, but it also highlighted a lack of available crew to close out the project. Despite these few challenges, the quality of the work met our expectations. We appreciated the team's effort and the final outcome.
