    Before and after pics. Very happy with their work!

    One thing to add that doesn't directly have to do with Cutting Edge: should you need a packout of your household items, **DO NOT** allow them to refer you to 1-800-PACKOUTS. I am currently one week out from project completion and am still not moved back home because 1-800-PACKOUTS was not honest with my insurance company about the packout amount, and since the final amount is more than what was agreed upon, I can't pay it and therefore they are refusing to move my household items back. My insurance adjuster also told me every time he's had to work with them it's been an absolute headache. The takeaway: research your own packout company and tell your project manager that's who you'd like to work with.

    Another unsatisfied and unhappy family here with Cutting Edge Restoration's work. For new clients reading reviews, LET ME START WITH -- ASK YOUR INSURANCE FOR THE WORK ORDER. This will help you find out how honest/dishonest the people you're dealing with. Like some of the other reviews, we were referred to this company by the plumber who did work because of the leakage. I wish I researched first. Now, here's our experience with photos. 1. Unprofessional. The quality of work doesnt live up to their tagline "Expert Service With Integrity." We let the workers be and stayed in the kitchen, me and my mom. They were playing music/song on the phone, laughing, and can hear videos being played. 2. One worked with paint in the garage and didn't put something to protect the floor. Used the hose and left a mess. Paint smears in the garage. I have to put cardboard boxes on that spot so when they come back next day it's protected just in case they'll work with paints again. 3. Appears as if they weren't briefed on what work to do. They painted half of our living room. Who would like a half painted wall? My mom even told the guys we were expecting the whole wall to be painted as we were told and understood it. Sent photo to Jose and he stopped by and look at it. Guys came back to paint the other half. I even felt like we were asking for a favor. But when we got a copy of the work order, it says there that ALL WALLS to be painted FOR A UNIFORM LOOK. How hard is it to brief the guys on what to paint? 4. We discovered one of them unplugged the washer/dryer and used the outlet because the washer/dryer wouldn't work. A "Can I unplug your washer/dryer so I can use the outlet?" would be appreciated. Or "Is there an outlet we can use?" Simple things like this will be appreciated by clients. Happy clients means more referrals. Business. There were even sawdust left in there which I took photo. 5. Said they were done working in the bathroom. When they didn't even did the caulking. They even have to be told to do it. I told the manager and I was told the guys will look at it when they come paint the other half of the wall. Guys came back, we were just observing. Again, didn't put anything to protect the floor/tiles where he put the paint. My dad did. They were ready to head outside, no clue at all that they will do the caulking or they were told about it so my dad told them. Only then they did the caulking. Still my dad even need to ask them to add more as what the guy put wasn't enough. With the vanity. It wasn't painted inside and outside. (See photo included if that looks painted to you). 6. Left mess in the bathtub. Didn't clean it after they were done painting. 7. Said they will be back to install wallpaper WHEN WALL WASN'T EVEN PRIMED. 8. We were told the allowance for the wallpaper is $1.10/sq.ft. If we select a more expensive wallpaper we'll have to pay the difference. Guess what? The allowance is $2.91/sq.ft. I told the manager if we, the client will get the wallpaper, we have to deduct the amount we are going to spend. He didn't say anything. We even went through the trouble of going to a store as he asked, checking online, making phone calls for wallpaper. Opposite to what we were initially told that someone will come to let us choose a wallpaper. While it says on paper that they'll provide the materials. We're prolly the first client they will work with asking for a wallpaper as it appears they don't know that the store they referred us to doesn't carry wallpapers. So with what we discovered on what's with the work order, we wish we didn't get this people to do the restoration job. 9. Other things we found on the work order that shouldn't even be there like doorbell. Seriously? In the bathroom? 10. Only heard from them today after over a month because my brother made a call at their office. But no. We don't want anything to do with these people again. Don't be like us. Read the reviews first. And speak to your insurance adjustor request a copy of the work order. Youll be surprised.

    If one is ever in need for a restoration company due to water damage, Cutting Edge Restoration should be your first call. I'm am so thankful, my plumber, Fabian from Fabulous Plumbing, recommended this company. Having to go through a claim involving multiple insurances, HOA, plumbers, mitigation, and rebuild work, it can be both intimidating and overwhelming. However, through the struggle, I meant some of the best and trustworthy people. Sleiman, you were a god sent! You were so kind to me, taking the time to explain how a claim works and being there when the insurance guy showed up to make sure it was legit with what he and my HOA team were saying. I am so grateful for you. Not only that, when Sleiman and team came in to do the mitigation work, the level of professionalism and the integrity of how they handled the job and my home, was top notch. After the mitigation team, came the rebuild Team lead by Jose. Jose was another stand up guy who was very patient and kind. Jorge lead most of the work for the rebuild and he always put my mind at ease with explaining next steps and taking care of any concerns I had along the way. Cutting Edge restoration has some of the best people. They still value customer service, kindness, and integrity, something that seems really hard to find nowadays. Thank all of you guys for taking such great care of me. If I ever need future work (I hope I'm done for awhile) your guys are the first I will call! Thank you so much!!

    Hole made by the plumber, didnt get fix until after one month.  Repair in the interior was bing done but stucco is still open
    Angelo G.

    I had water damage in the kitchen due to a busted pipe. Cutting Edge did the repairs and I would like to give credit to the workers who did the actual work. But for the management they need to improve a couple things. 1. Lack of communication. They need to have a plan laid out to the customer, they need to provide updates on a weekly basis. What happened to me is I dont even know when the workers will show up, sometimes they only work 1 or 2 days in a week. I keep on messaging the main office asking them if somebody will work in my house on that day. It should not be the customer asking for the update. 2. Sub contractors show up un-prepapared. They show up to my house at 830 in the morning and they dont have the materials needed this happened numerous times, this is a failure of the project manager. They will ask me that they need to go to Home Depot to buy materials, completely UNSAT. Also the plumber punched a hole on the stucco and did not inform anybody, they have been working on the interior of the house and the stucco outside is still open! They fixed it after a month when I told them that there is still a hole. Also the sub contractor dont exactly know what to do, I ask them about the project and the response is . 3. There are charges on the quote that are not performed, I did not complain because insurance paid for it but be careful with the estimate. Goodluck...

    I had a catastrophic leak from the upstairs unit in the duplex I own. I live in the unit that was damaged. I am a retired widow so I was concerned about how the process would be handled. As it turned out, my insurance company caused the biggest delay and, frankly, for no reason as they accepted the quote from CER. Once this company was able to begin work, my concerns vanished. Jose Ruiz de Garcia met with me and explained the entire process and patiently all my questions. Work began and proceeded according to plan. Fran, the tiler, checked in with me as he redid my walk-in shower. They were finished on time and each of the workmen was polite and professional. I would absolutely recommend them for any job large or small

Like any major…read moreproject, we started by reaching out to a couple of vendors to get quotes, that's where we met Alon, the project manager for Lumina Builders. What immediately stood out to us was that he had ideas and solutions to address our pain points and make enhancements, we wouldn't have ever considered, and didn't just wait for us to tell him how we wanted things. He created a vision for us in that first quote visit. The other contractor we spoke to didn't provide any ideas just asked us how we wanted it. It was a very easy decision to go with Alon and Lumina Builders. Our project was estimated to take 2-3 months and ultimately took two and a half months to complete. We designed a brand new kitchen, addressing all of our concerns and adding a few recommendations from Alon to streamline some areas. They ripped everything out aside from the flooring and walls. We got brand new custom cabinets, custom lighting, and new countertops. Our fridge was moved to a new, more accessible area. Our sink was shifted down to align with the stove for continuity sake (never realized how much I hated it being in a corner previously). We had a new little cabinet built in our little breakfast nook area and we had an appliance garage built to house everything that took up counter space. Everything is so much brighter and more open and, even though we know the demensions are roughly the same, it feels so much wider. We are ecstatic with how everything came out. Alon is a genius. He was responsive to us throughout the project, checking in weekly to see how things were going, giving us peace of mind throughout this process, as first time remodelers. We were indecisive about the primary cabinet color (I was very worried we'd be stuck with something we didn't really like) but he worked with the cabinet makes to give us several samples to choose from. He was very patient with us. We LOVE how everything turned out! We'll definitely be using Lumina Builders for all of our future projects.

Based on that storyline, they're refusing to take responsibility for the flooring damage. The windows were installed without permits. I brought in four independent inspections, including three licensed general contractors and one home inspector. All confirmed active water intrusion and pointed to the window installation as the likely source. Despite that, Forever Builders continues to deny, redirect, and avoid addressing the actual installation. The floors never had water intrusion before the remodel. The problem started after their work. Instead of owning it and fixing it, they've chosen to argue technicalities and wait for CSLB to force the issue. For a company that promotes itself as 5-star, this has been anything but. When serious defects surface, there's no urgency, no accountability, and no effort to stand behind the work. Just excuses. That is not 5-star service. That is not what integrity looks like.

    Review Update (2026)…read more I am updating my original 5-star review from a few years ago. At the time, we were very happy with our kitchen remodel and the overall experience working with Creative Design & Build. The project turned out beautifully, which is why I originally left such a positive review. Over the years, however, I noticed that one section of the flooring felt slightly soft when walking on it. At first, it did not seem serious, so we continued to live with it. Recently, the problem became worse and a section of the floor began to noticeably sink when stepped on and eventually a few edges of the flooring broke. At that point, I became concerned that it could become a safety issue. Because we still had plenty of spare flooring boards left over from the project, I attempted to replace the affected board myself. Unfortunately, I was unable to get the new board to fit correctly due to the locking system, and I could not restore the original board either. I then contacted Creative Design & Build for assistance. One reason I reached out was because our original project manager, Oded, had told us that if we ever had any issues, we should contact the company. I left a voicemail and later received a return call from a staff member. After I explained the situation, she said she would check with management and get back to me. A few days later, I received a text message stating that the warranty had expired and that no repairs would be covered. This was disappointing because I had never been informed that there was a four-year warranty period, nor was I able to find any reference to such a limitation in our contract. When I asked for details regarding the warranty and whether they could recommend someone to repair the issue, I did not receive any further response. There were two other issues relating to electrical and plumbing, however we decided to live with that until we had a major problem we needed fixing. I still appreciate the work that was done on our remodel years ago, and our kitchen remains a space we enjoy. However, I have been disappointed by the lack of follow-up and support when a problem arose. My advice to future customers is to make sure all warranty terms, coverage details, and expiration dates are clearly documented and understood before signing a contract.
