Ron and his team remodeled our master bathroom. That entailed installing a new extractor fan, new toilet, new vanity, mirror, tile, paint, recess lights, and complete new shower. They aso put in new baseboards and hinges on the door. The result was very impressive. It is clean, modern and feels a lot more spacious. Ron and his workers are very professional, polite and punctual. They always arrived at the agreed time (depending on the traffic) and day. We will certainly use Ron and his team again and have no reservations recommending them. read more

This is a up to the minute review. We had our roof done in 2018 by CID Builders and it started to leak recently. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I called Ron Darmon and he sent a guy to put tar on the flat area of the roof.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I had to give this guy $100 tip for him to show up. (Such care for the customer) Now, at this minute it's raining cats and dogs, an extremely heavy down pour and its leaking AGAIN. I just got off the phone with Ron and he wants me to pay him again to fix the roof. I find him to be untrustworthy and snaky. He doesn't seem to stand behind his product, labor or have pride in his work. He seems to just not care. So if you get a roof from him it only lasts 8 years. Aren't they suppose to last at least 30 years?? read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Ron saved me! He's amazing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] He remodeled my home, got the jobs done swiftly, the cost was very reasonable and he is extremely professional. Thank you, Ron! Rita. read more

We just completed an addition to our dining room. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very satisfied with working with Ron.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]He responds quickly to text messages.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Always answered any concerns and completed the job quickly. Would highly recommend. read more

I am very pleased overall with my experience with Ron and my project, which is an above-garage ADU. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ron was very attentive to my requests all along the way.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] He met the stated deadline, and the finished unit is beautiful!!! He is an honest and a trustworthy person who I could relate to as a family man and fair businessman. I highly recommend Ron and CID. I have already given his business card to several friends and acquaintances. Living in a house while this type of construction is happening has its challenges as you are in a construction zone with dust and dirt and a porta potty in your front yard, so I am admitting there are challenges, but Ron and CID came through!! CID will be my choice for future home projects, for sure! read more

We worked with Ron at CID Builders to add a room and bathroom to the back of our house. He was a pleasure to work with and very reasonably priced. His team got the work done in a reasonable amount of time and did a good job. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ron communicated well and was very polite.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We ended up having CID paint our house and replace our gutters too! read more

Stay away!!! take it from a very unhappy customer. Don't say you were not warned. This was the worst experience I have ever had, trust me I have dealt with some real winners but this company is the worst. We did a room addition with this so called company and that's where things went wrong. First they told I couldn't have the amount of windows I wanted so I had to go to the city and brought proof from the city I was within the specs. Then there in house architect would not change the plans, so I had to hire another architect to draw up new plans at my expense. Then they opened my roof during rainy weather they tarped the roof and said it would be fine, well guess what flooded my master bedroom with 1 1/2" of water. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They told me to call anytime day or night if I had any issue well I called at midnight and was told no one will be out until morning( lot of good that did) I had ask them to hold off opening the existing roof until after the rain.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If that wasn't bad enough I had to threaten them to go after there bond in which I did but stopped midway due to they paid for all the damage they caused. Yelp keeps deleting my review either they are buying them off or yelp really doesn't want people to know about incompetent companies. read more

We were given Ron's contact information from a mutual friend after receiving numerous quotes to build a pool in our backyard. As soon as we met Ron, we knew he was the contractor for us. He was very detailed and knowledgeable. He made us feel at ease and gave us a realistic timeframe of the pool buildout. We signed our quote and he got to work! His entire crew was extremely professional, organized and clean! They made sure the job site was cleaned up and organized daily! Ron was always available to get on a call with us and would always show up for our inspections! He was always several steps ahead of us and our pool was done in less than 2 months! We cannot thank the CID Crew enough for all their hard work! Definitely recommend CID Builders for all your contractor needs! read more

The company resurfaced and repaired my mom's pool. Here is her review of the work and the company. "My pool had been empty over a year. It was put in in '58 and I was told that the pipes had to be replaced along with the plaster. I had several quotes and decided to go with Ron because he seemed very straight forward and he would be able to set up a loan for me. I signed the agreement with him and the next day his plaster removal crew arrived. 4 hours later they were finished. The next day another crew arrived to take out all the old flagstone around the pool and they were done within hours. The next day a couple of guys arrived to dig trenches and install new piping which took a couple of days. Then the inspection, putting in new concrete around the pool, and another inspection followed by replastering and filling the pool. The whole process was very easy and efficient. Ron and his onsite supervisor, Hector, explained everything to me so clearly. As I sit out by the pool each night now, I think about my husband, who recently passed away. He loved to swim and would be so grateful to Ron for giving us such a beautiful pool." read more

Creepy man/owner doing bathroom remodel estimate. This is purely because I forgot to put away my expensive watch by the sink and he was more interested in the watch than doing the estimate. He picked up my watch and asked me if it was real and he tried it on!! How unprofessional. Never doing business with this company. read more

Ron came out and gave me an estimate to replace the tile around the pool and jacuzzi, as well as replastering the pool and jacuzzi. Ron provided a very competitive bid for all of the work and we went with CID builders for the job. Ron suggested two tiles stores in the valley to select tiles from which had an abundance of selections for us to choose from. About two weeks later and even dodging a few rain days, the split drains were added, the tile install and replastering was completed on time for the exact amount of Ron's estimate. During the tile and replastering timeframe, my weekly pool maintenance person mentioned the pump and control valves should be changed, and Ron was able to complete all of that work as well within the two weeks the pool was empty. Ron never tried to upsell me or increase his overall job cost without me asking for the additional work. Honest businessmen seem to be rare these days, but I found a good one. Thanks for the great work. read more

We are very happy with the work done by CID. A huge shout out to our project manager, Ben D. He worked closely with my husband who planned to do the finishing details. This was a big project with lots of moving parts! Two additions to our existing home, new bathroom, laundry room, fireplace, electrical/plumbing, new roof, new AC and Pool/spa with paved patio! I am so happy to be in our forever home!! read more

Sent a message through Yelp bc i contacted Bed about the cabinets I paid a mint for and that they are chipping and peeling AGAIN. They fixed it once and its back. No one has responded yet. Its funny that qhwn I need something they take forever to respond but when the job it complete they expect you to change your review right away. Never mind it takes sometimes a month to get someone to respond. read more

I had a great experience with this team. They were quick and did a great job. Did not disturb the neighbours or leave a mess behind. My back yard has a new look and life. Fred read more

I strongly recommend avoiding these people. I hired them to replaster my pool. They did the pool the wrong color and refused to make it right. After they finished the work I discovered a leak in the pool. They tried to convince me that the leak was not their fault. After a long battle I finally got them to dig up and find the leak. They then left the entire area dug up and exposed without finishing the job for the past six months. They keep saying that they are going to take care of it but it has been 6 months and I still have a huge hole in the ground next to my pool. I strongly recommend avoiding these people and finding someone else for whatever work you might need done. They do not stand behind their work. read more

Paz and CID Builder's has been nothing short of amazing. I had an extensive home remodeling project where I needed an expansion, kitchen remodel, and 3 bathroom remodels. I took multiple bids and like everybody else I saw that the prices where all over the place and that everybody came and just tried to sell me on the spot which was very irritating. This was not my experience with CID. There was no sales pressure, Paz answered all questions I had, and the price was very reasonable. The project had some delays but Paz was on top of everything and made sure that everything came out to my 100% satisfaction. Thank you Paz and CID for the amazing work! read more

To say we are happy with experience we had with CID is an understatement. They Redid Our Entire Bathroom. I found them through reviews online as well and I feel the need to pay it forward to someone who is looking for a fantastic contractor. When these guys take care of you, they take care of you like family. This is no slogan or gimmick. We were treated as if our dad was the contractor and everything we needed was put at the top of the priority list. Ron started the process, and let me tell you, this guy LOVES HIS JOB! So much so I think his poor family may never see him. You can tell this stuff excites him and it is infectious. Not only was he there holding our hands through the entire process, I may have texted his cell phone a few too many times late at night on the weekends asking questions as I thought of them, and he answered....every time!! Ask for Ron as a project manager and you will not be disappointed! But just like Ron, every person in this company we dealt with was just as amazing. Ron aims to please. He will literally go out of his way to make the customer happy, not to mention he is a fun, jovial guy to be around, which is hard to find in this type of business. Aaron did the flooring work....REQUEST HIM!! He is an artist and perfectionist. My OCD could not find one mistake in his work in the bathroom. Alex coordinates from the office and she holds down the fort somehow, I do not know how. She is always sweet, attentive, organized and on it. Carlos made the mess of the demolition so much easier. He made sure everything was covered at all times (completely, not just thrown together to look good), and even re covered and re taped after I took things down daily (I am sure he wasn't pleased about that!) All of these people worked around our family as we lived through this madness. They worked around baby nap schedules, barking dogs at their ankles and kids a little too interested in what they were doing. All with patience and kindness (something really important when you are pretty much living with these guys for 6 weeks.) They finished on time (what?) and threw in so many extras I can't even remember them all. I will definitely be using them again. read more

Working with Paz (GC) on a master bath and kitchen remodel was like having a trusted family friend by your side. My mom's house is 30+ years old, and he showed empathy for their situation and basically gave my mom hope that she can have a great kitchen that fits her needs and a bath that would accommodate her caring for my dad. Even when there were changes, he ensured that everything would be compliant with city code and also was accommodating to the design changes...it was as simple as a text of, hey Paz, what's the cost for adding a new door? Another great thing was that Paz answered my calls in a timely manner (within same day) and depending on his schedule, he answered texts within an hour at most. For a guy juggling numerous projects and is on the road or at meetings, that's amazing! His team at CID did an awesome job and gave my mom a wonderful new kitchen & bath. The kitchen cabinets are so stellar and the bath is more functional for when she gives dad his bath. She is so happy with the results! Definitely will engage with Paz on future projects! Highly recommended! read more

CID Builders has done an incredible job on my backyard renovation. From the moment Paz came to do a walkthrough until completion of the job the process was amazing. Paz came out to meet with my family and I to go over the details. He helped address all of our questions and concerns, and definitely pointed us in the right direction. There were things that we thought we wanted, but Paz gave us alternatives that were going to be better and more cost effective! He was thoughtful and thorough and we spent 3+ hours going over all the details. We were eager to start so Paz was able to get us a quote the same day! We hired CID Builders to do some artificial turf and cement. The crew was quick to start the job and was there everyday that Paz said they where going to be there. The crew was respectful of our property and where courteous and would answer any questions or concerned that we had. Francisco, the foreman, made sure that every little detail was done to perfection. The attention to detail performed by Paz and his crew was top notch I couldn't have been happier with the end result. Granted there where some hiccups along the way, but Paz was on top of it and made sure that everything was up to our standards. We had some delays in inspections, weather, and additions. Overall, I would definitely recommend CID in the future to family and friends, and once we get settled in will use them again for the inside! read more

Ron and his crew are my top choice for contractors. This is a recent roof repair from a tree that fell from the neighbor's yard onto my ADU. Ron had his crew over and replaced the damaged tiles. They also surveyed the entire roof for leaks or other damage. Then they sealed up all of the flashings as a courtesy. I will use them for some plumbing and electrical projects next. Thank you CID!! read more

I used Ron and CID to build a pool and install decking. Ron was super friendly and gave the best price. Unlike others he was upfront about costs. For example he included concrete coping and heating for the pool where others had it as an additional add on. He was accurate with the timeframe and his workers were great. Ron also has an excellent eye for design. The pool looks amazing and I am so happy I chose them. I highly recommend! read more

When a business owner wants to be sure of good reviews he needs to do good work, promptly. After I posted my honest review this owner called me repeatedly, then sent a private Yelp message to get me to remove it. He suggested $ for doing so. I didn't, so he posted ugly comments, a bunch of inaccurate quotes, to make me look bad instead of taking responsibility himself. He said that my review was unethical, since in accepting a discount (again, that was to make up for poor quality work they left me with) I had agreed "not to have any more complaints". I took that to mean I wouldn't ask CID to make any more corrections for that price. In California it's actually ILLEGAL for contractors to insist a customer not write a bad review! Yelp management agrees with me he violated their terms of use. I stand by my review and hope CID learns to treat customers right. read more

I had a great experience with CID builders. I couldn't be happier with the whole process from Ron coming to my home to give us a quote, to the end result. Ron was a pleasure to work with. I felt very comfortable to work with him as he kept us informed at every stage. CID builders comes highly recommended. Our pool is ready as promised for my family to enjoy this summer. read more

Pool was the only thing we didn't have in our backyard. Well; at least we thought so. After CID started our project building a brand new modern pool, it was so cozy and contemporary looking that we decided to precede and remodel the rest of of our backyard. It's amazing. :-) They promised 2 month for the job completion and It was done in 45 days. Quality is amazing. Clean job. Smooth and professional personnel. Very organized. Unbeatable price and AWSOME results. Thank you CID. Ask for Oren, he has great ideas for every project you may have. He helped us big time. read more

I absolutely can't say enough about the honesty, thoroughness and professionalism of CID Builders. The project took a bit longer than expected but that largely had to do with me adding more options because I was loving everything they were doing. I am disabled so it was critical that they make things exactly the way I needed them. As a result of their listening to me and making sure that I was happy with every step, the backyard is 100% the way I had hoped it would be. Lastly, working with Paz was the best. He listened to me completely and he made some great suggestions. We had contact nearly every day throughout this process so I was able to stay fully informed of everything that was going on. And if something wasn't exactly right he would have it corrected immediately. His main interest was my satisfaction in the work being done. I need to also say that every single workman that I had contact with was so respectful and talented. There wasn't one bad experience with any of the workmen. If you're thinking about a contractor I can't possibly recommend CID builders enough. 3/20/2019 Because CID builders were so great with last year's project I had them give us a quote for our kitchen remodel and living room and dining room painting and upgrading. Like before, they were terrific! Paz worked very hard to get his price down so that we could get everything we wanted done by bringing his cost down. We are so happy with the work his subcontractors did. Every step of the way they were professional and hugely competent. My wife and I are thrilled with the results. I am especially impressed by their willingness to either fix things or adjust things to our satisfaction. They just didn't do the work and leave, they really wanted to make sure my wife and I were satisfied with every single piece of the work. And we are! You absolutely need to get a quote from CID Builders for whatever project you are doing. They are remarkable at what they do. read more

We hired CID Builders in May of this year. CID hired sub-contractors that started working on my pool on June 17, 2020 and from that day forward marked one mistake after another. Many mistakes were huge and cost time and money. The subs lack of experience and no supervision by CID set the time of anticipated completion back months. CID provided absolute no supervision, no project manager and no foreman at any time during the 2.5 month period they were working on my pool. We lost a lot of time and money and were left very frustrated and 'Considered it Destroyed'. We terminated CID after 2.5 months and had to find another contractor to take over and to complete the project. read more

Ron and his team of CID employees/contractors were great from beginning to end for my ROOFING project! Ron took the time to visit me multiple times in different cities to explain procedures, show me samples, and offer payment options. He always visited the job site, was courteous, explained things, and even stopped the project to solve an unexpected problem we encountered. Even after the job was done and he was paid in full, i noticed something that was aesthetically unacceptable, and upon notifying him, he immediately sent a person to address the issue and fix it to my liking. His prices were great, considering he is not only a licensed GC, but had a roofing license too. The peace of mind was worth paying the premium, even though his prices were very competitive to begin with. Overall, it was a great experience and it is rare to find a good contractor to work with. Thanks Ron for everything!!! read more

I had these people to build a pool in my back yard in Long Beach... well lengthy process did not go well, mostly because they don't have an employee to work on your project. They sub to cheapest person they can find... make the story short, they screwed up my stone work around chimney, fire place and BBQ and fire pit, job was done terrible the way that I have to do all over again, they are not capable of doing stone work, so I do not recommend to anyone. Job is unfinished and they got paid in full. You can come and look for yourself. Don't trust nice talking at beginning. read more

These guys took our old home and made it brand new. The scope of work was large. Expanded and relayout kitchen, guy and replace bathrooms, make new openings, seal off a couple of doors, all new flooring, all new roof, new insulation, skylights, all new custom Windows and sliding glass doors, reface and stucco the house, paint it, build an awesome pool, place all fixtures, front door, custom cabinets, new closet doors, all new barn doors..... they have been relentless in working on our dream house and making it the perfect place to raise our family. Every small detail was addressed and our construction manager walked us through every step. They handled so much of the work it was fantastic. They suggested small changes that really added and were able to understand exactly what we wanted. So excited this is where we live now. Looks like something out of home beautiful! Thank you, Paz and company! read more

What a lifesaver! We had a nightmare experience with another contractor and CID took over our kitchen remodel.

In short, I can't recommend CID and our project manager Ben highly enough. If you want the job done right call the team at CID. From start to finish it couldn't have gone better. We had just moved into a new home and wanted the backyard redone. We had a very specific vision and invite several companies to come out and provide an estimate. By far CID gave us the best feeling. One contractor told us we didn't want what we asked for and another simply looked around and gave us what I would consider a 'guess' on how much it might be. Ben and his team provided a CAD plan and told us they would work on the plan until it was exactly what we wanted...and it was! He was never pushy and simply gave us the time we needed to decide. They were always accommodating as we made on the fly changes to our contract and added and removed various pieces. We had a fairly strict timeline for some of the work. In spite of the rain at the end of the year, they met the timeline and the outcome was amazing. We had CID doing work at our home for approximately 6 months and I found Ben always attentive, quick to respond, friendly and professional. The various teams they had come in and work on the projects were the same. In fact, my wife and I were almost disappointed it was all complete as we felt like we were losing part of our family. I think CID stands for "Consider It Done"- and that is what we did. If you want to Consider It Done, hire CID. read more

We have wanted to remodel our kitchen for 15 years and 2017 seemed to be the right time. We interviewed 3 contractors and kept our fingers crossed that we chose the RIGHT team. Demolition is a dirty and painful time no matter how you look at it; however, CID BUILDERS were not only professional and talented, they would clean up everyday before quitting. Ron Darmon ( the boss) delivered what he said he would as far as plans, time, and expertise. He took a kitchen from the 1960's and turned it into a very up-to-date, open air, gorgeous, center of attraction eatery. Ron listened to what we wanted; if he had suggestions, we were open to his professional advice. His head worker, Aaron, and his team were great also. The cabinets were handmade for our kitchen are magnificent! If we said there were NO problems a tall, that would be a lie. Any little glitches were dealt with immediately and remedied. We usually know what a company is really like by the way the employees act to the boss and to each other. It was obvious that Ron was well-respected by his crew and were willing to work during their break time, if needed. We'll use CID Builders again and have referred them to friends. Thanks, Ron for an outstanding job! read more

My name is Sarkis Zeitjian. I strongly recommend working with CID especially with Paz the project manager. we recently completed an addition to our house. I had an excellent experience with him for the following reasons: 1. He is very knowledgeable in his business and he provides great suggestions throughout the process to make your project even better. 2. His follow up is excellent. He keeps you posted on consistent basis so you know what's going on daily or weekly basis 3. the crew he works with they are knowledgeable and they get the work done on timely manner. I will definitely work with him again in the future. read more

I have to admit, when I first agreed to remodel our kitchen from the ground up, I was skeptical, to say the least. I have had friends who do construction and at my age, have seen a ton of jobs that get started... but seem to go on forever. That being said. I was at least a little happier when we hired CID and they put me at ease a bit, knowing that CID was doing EVERYTHING... and Very impressed when, even over the holidays, they met their Month and a 1/2 deadline. (They did all demolition of the floor and all our cabinets, rebuilt up the floor base, then installed all new custom built cabinets with our choice of wood, and installed all new vinyl floors) As you know, all construction is a little ugly, as last minute, unforeseen items come up along the way... they even handled those items to our satisfaction Like Pro's. The key, they are like a family with one goal. They all work in tandem, and know in the end, They're Doing It All and want to make the customer happy, even if they have to redemo items to correct an issue. That they're all connected and have respect for each others work, was wonderful! One stand out among them all was Moro (and I apologize if the spellings wrong) the cabinet guy. He takes pride in his work and every facet of his love for quality cabinet craftsmanship. Bravo to all at CID (and no, I'm not a close relative or friend.... as I often think when I see a great reviews like this) read more

CID builders did a great job on my shower. They weren't the cheapest (and not the most expensive), but they definitely gave us a good value.

I am very impressed with their work and would definitely recommend them! read more
