We used Element home remodeling to remodel 2.5 bathrooms. We got about 4 quotes prior to choosing them. Josh and Dan have amazing communication skills. It's been a pleasure working with the whole team. One thing that really stood out is how Dan and Josh both check in on progress and time line. Their workers are also very clean. At the end of a work day, they cleaned and organized so well it was like they weren't even there... Ruben their lead was also great with making sure things were communicated on fix ups. Any concern I had was quickly addressed. there were some hiccups here and there, but they handled it very well and professionally. I also enjoyed working with their designer. She understood my concept and created bathroom designs that I couldn't put together myself. It's been more than 4 months since completion, and I still look at my bathrooms and get excited. Also, they kept with the budget I had in mind. They were very considerate on how much I wanted to spend and gave me recommendations on how to cut costs. Would like to strongly consider them again to pick their designer brains for a bigger project in future. read more

This review is well deserved. Element Home Remodeling has been exceptional. I worked with Dan, Josh, and their team on a remodel of a bathroom and kitchen. The project involved layout changes and installing high-end finish materials, which required a high level of craftsmanship. We faced quite a few challenges during the project, but Josh and Dan solved them with ease. We did not need to lift a finger everything was taken care of from start to finish. The team managed permitting, design, and even material pickup. They also worked surprisingly clean, the floors were covered throughout the house, and all the materials were carefully organized in one of the rooms. This ensured minimal disruption during construction and to a point, made us comfortable with having the kids running around the house. Dan and Josh brought an enthusiastic and creative energy. They kept us and the team and on the same page the entire time, which led to a smooth process. Both of them are passionate about their work and we could tell that they put much effort into delivering a great finish result. We appreciate the work and effort that the entire team put in to give us a home that we can be proud of. And we are! We love their work and our new home. read more

We recently had two bathrooms remodeled, including the master bathroom. The results are nothing but spectacular. Both spaces are transformed into personal spa retreats! From start to finish, the project was managed with exceptional professionalism and care. Thank you Dan, Josh, Ruben and Jael! The construction crew demonstrated outstanding craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail that exceeded our expectations. Thank you Francisco, Oscar, Rafael, Salvador, Fernando, Hugo and Oogo. No detail was too small, and we always felt heard and involved in the process. Their thoughtful approach gave us complete confidence in every step of the remodel. We highly recommend Element Home Remodeling. If you want the "A" Team on your home project, ask for Dan, Josh, Jael, Ruben and crew. read more

It's about a month after Element Home Remodeling completed our project. I wanted to move into our new home and live in it for a while before sharing my thoughts and experience with this company. During that time, I have found small touchups to be done, which Josh and Dan, our project supervisors, gladly took care of. During the past month living in our new home, I have learned to appreciate how much was accomplished and how many moving parts were involved in our project. We initially started by hiring a designer who was unrelated to Element. This quickly turned into a slow and trying process. We decided to cover our losses and move forward that's when a family member recommended Element Home Remodeling. Although we had a rough start with our first designer, Dan and Josh made efforts to move the project forward and compensate for the time that was lost. Despite not living at the house at the time, I was directly involved in the ins and outs of the project, and to their credit, Josh, Dan, and their crew welcomed the collaboration. My knowledge in construction is limited, but Dan and Josh were easy to communicate with. They simplified anything that was too complex for me to understand. They were helpful and efficient in catching issues as they came up and offered creative and smart solutions. During the painting process, I pointed out some concerns which required repairs and additional work. The team was committed to making things right and fixed what needed fixing. I can assume that every home remodel will have its difficulties, but thankfully, we had a good team that worked with us and shared the same vision and goal in mind. The end result reflects the hard work that was put into building our home. read more

I haven't had the time to share the great experience our family had with Josh, remodeling our kitchen, so I have taken advantage of the long weekend to thank him and his crew for their work. We were having a barbecue with a bunch of friends when I shared my kitchen remodeling plan. Josh's name came up through a friend of a friend who had hired Element Home Remodeling to work on his home. We had heard of a few other companies, in addition to a few disappointing stories, which, for a short time, had made us think twice about even wanting this remodel. However, I was so impressed with what was told about Josh that I said to my wife we had to meet him. We could tell right away that he has a ton of experience and knowledge in his field. From day one, we felt like we were in good and professional hands. I was looking for a company that could stick to our budget. It wasn't low, but we have a newborn at home, and every dollar counts. Josh assured us that there wouldn't be a sudden price increase once the remodel started, and I'm relieved to say that there wasn't. Besides Josh, we also had the pleasure of working with Jael, Josh's designer, who took part in designing the kitchen. She was amazing!! She made the material selection and delivery a smooth process. She had great ideas and was patient with our project. The guys who did the labor were detailed and caring. They were friendly and nice. This has been an interesting experience, and we're glad we got lucky choosing Element, Josh, Jael, and the team for our project. Thank you everyone! read more

A while back, we hired Rafael to replace our roof. He and his crew did a wonderful job. Although it wasn't a long project, it gave us a taste of the communication and workmanship that Rafael offered. During one of our meetings, I mentioned that we were planning to remodel the rest of the house. Rafael offered his help and suggested scheduling a meeting once we were ready to proceed with the remodel. I reached out to Rafael again and he introduced me to Ploy. Rafael and Ploy handled the project together. Rafael was our main contact for everything construction related, while Ploy was our designer and project coordinator She was incredible very responsive, kind, friendly, and had full of out of the box solutions and suggestions. We remodeled both bathrooms and the entire kitchen. Rafael and Ploy ensured the site remained clean and caused minimal disruption to our daily lives. Although it was a bit uncomfortable in the early stages of the project, it improved significantly as it progressed. Element did beautiful work. We wouldn't hesitate to use this company again in the future or recommend them to others. read more

Choosing Element Home Remodeling to remodel both our bathrooms was a great decision. We consider ourselves lucky to have had Dan and Josh manage our project. They are by far the most experienced and knowledgeable project managers out of all the companies that visited our home. They were thorough and clean. They treated our home with respect, covering all floors and moving furniture and delicate items. We did not face any issues. Everything was straightforward and clear. We had the team remodel each bathroom separately, which was convenient. They ended up finishing the remodel earlier than expected. The quality of work is A+ and our neighbors are in the process of hiring this company after seeing the great work they did. I don't know about the other project managers in this company, but Josh and Dan are more than amazing. read more

Josh and Dan were our project managers assigned by Element Home Remodeling. They managed our kitchen, living room, and bathroom remodel and did a great job. They stayed on top of the work, kept things on schedule, and managed the budget well. This was an extensive project where we knocked down walls, which required architectural and engineering plans a service also provided by Element. Additionally, we replaced the flooring throughout the entire house. We consider the end result a great success and are very thankful to have had Josh and Dan supervise our project. In fact, they are the main reason we chose to work with this company. Out of all the companies we met with, Dan was the only project manage who created 3D renders and layouts for us to visualize his design ideas. This was all done with patience and attention to detail, which was one of the reasons why we decided to work with him and Josh. Element has a crew of professional and friendly workers, who showed up everyday and were attentive towards our remarks and needs. Whenever we felt that something needed fixing or required more attention the team took care of it right away. read more

I completed a full home remodel with Element Home Remodeling back in 2023,. I had a great time working with Matt and his team. The remodel and overall experience exceeded our expectations. The work included a 2-year full coverage warranty and 10 years on specific items. To date, everything is still in good shape. However, I wanted to refresh the grout in the bathroom and some in the kitchen. Although I knew that the warranty is no longer in place, I contacted Element and expected them to say that they do not provide that type of work for projects done over two years ago. I was surprised to receive a friendly and attentive reply from Matt. Two days later, he came with two team members. Not only did he refresh part of the grout at no charge, he also inspected the house for other small issues and did some touch-ups here and there. The customer service that this company offers is above and beyond. I am thankful for Matt and his team. read more

Josh and Dan are the real deal. Our house was a total wreck after our previous contractor left us in the middle of our home remodeling project. We were careless and too eager to start our project. We didn't do our research and fell for the charm of the previous project manager. Long story short, things went south pretty fast, and we found ourselves stuck with a rented apartment and our new home under construction, but with no contractor. We had to find a new contractor ASAP. This time, we used the help of friends , one recommended Element Home Remodeling, and others gave us a few other companies whom we met with. We were on a short deadline, and every month in the rented apt was eating up our budget. We met with Josh and Dan onsite and could see that they were shocked with our story. We went over the original design and plans. Dan took the plans to his architect, and they were able to make changes to the plans that made much more sense and also saved us time. We had to resubmit the changes to the city, but Dan and Josh made sure to have everything approved in no time. From the get-go, we noticed the difference in approach, communication, and work ethics between the previous company and Element Home Remodeling. The actual project was a breeze. The team was professional. They did their best to compensate for the lost time. Josh and Dan were easy to work with. They were exactly what we needed after our previous experience. Even though they weren't able to complete the job according to our original plan, they saved us a lot of time by moving things forward quickly and responsibly. They requested payments according to an agreed payment schedule, and only after the payment milestone was completed. This was also a nice change. Whenever we had questions about previous checks or transfers we made, the office sent out a detailed report with check numbers, dates, and invoices. Everything was nicely organized. We are grateful for the work and dedication that the entire team put into fixing our project. Thanks, Dan and Josh, for the excellent work. We had a nice time working with you both! read more

Working with Element Home Remodeling was an on-track experience. They provided 5-star service the entire time. We had been planning our complete home remodel for a while, we knew exactly what we wanted and we were set on our ideas.  We met with a large number of remodeling contractors and companies. It was very tough to make a decision based only an on online reputation. We decided to ask around and that's when a family member recommended Element Home Remodeling. We dropped by his house and got the chance to see their work firsthand. Rafael who was sent by Element Home Remodeling and who was our main PM took us to a few other projects that he was working on and we loved what we saw. We also spoke with his other clients and they sounded very happy with his management and work ethics. All that together with the good online reputation that this company has is what made us go with them.  Our home remodel included a 200 SF home addition, relocating and remodeling the kitchen, 2 bathrooms, 3 bedrooms and living area. We had Element draw up the plans for the project and worked with their designer on ordering our selected materials. It took the city building department al very long time to approve the plans but Refael and the team kept us updated and followed up with the city once a week to try and push things forward.  Once the permit was approved Refael and his team started the remodel right away. During the process we did not stay at home, we rented a place for almost the entire time which added to our stress on getting things done as soon as possible so we could save money on the rent. Francisco, Jose and the entire team of workers who took part in the remodel were professional and detailed. The communication that we had with them was great. They involved us in the small decisions and made sure that we were part of the process, they stuck to the deadline and passed all the city inspections.  When we had issues with material delivery Element Home Remodeling made sure to contact the vendors and did their best to expedite the delivery even though it wasn't their responsibility. When looking back on it all we could not find any reason to complain whatsoever. We are very happy with the quality of work and the way things turned out. At about 90% progress we moved back home. During that time the remodeling crew put in some extra work and did their best to finish as soon a possible and with minimum disruption.  Our experience with Element Home Remodeling is very positive we are enjoying our new home and thankful to themm for being professional throughout the entire time. We will be more than willing to recommend Element Home Remodeling to our close friends and family. read more

My parents have been living in the same house for many years and the bathrooms were no longer serving their needs. They were outdated and more importantly, weren't elderly-friendly. I was looking for a contractor who could help remodel the bathrooms one at a time. I also wanted to find someone who I felt comfortable having around my parents, and who would make sure that the construction team didn't leave any leftover materials laying around on the floor at the end of the day, and basically just be considerate towards them. I choose to work with Josh because he seemed responsible and it turned out that my gut feeling was right. He was kind and caring towards them. He was friendly, respectful and very accommodating. Both he and his team did some extras for us for no extra charge to make the bathroom safer and more accessible. I am so happy that I choose to work with Element Home Remodeling and I recommend Josh and his crew to any one looking for reliable remodeling services. Couldn't be happier with the project management Josh provided read more

So far so good, working with Refael has been amazing! This is our forever home in Lafayette, California, so this is so important to us. Rafael's main builder, Alexis is doing a great job. Alexis is talented knows what he is doing and does a perfect job. There have been delays due to some plan changes and getting permits modified. My hope is that we end on a good note and both sides, the contractor and us the homeowner are satisfied. As in any big project, good communication and keeping your word and honesty is critical. We have worked with other contractors on two other big projects and always had good results and very satisfactory out come for both sides. We hope for the same here. read more

Following remediation of water damage in my den, I sought a service provider to remodel the interior and redesign the exterior to prevent future water egress. I obtained evaluations and estimates from several handymen and contractors, with a few either ghosting or declining to take on the project. Of those who provided estimates, I chose Element Home Remodeling because they proposed the most comprehensive solution for both the interior and exterior, they projected confidence and enthusiasm about the work to be performed, they indicated that they could complete the project in a timely manner, and they provided an opportunity to visit one of their ongoing projects at a nearby location. My project was overseen by Shalom with significant contributions from Refael. For the interior, after leveling the floor the team installed laminate wood flooring, new dry wall and baseboards, painted the walls, and re-installed my sliding glass door with a proper sill. For the exterior, they regraded the surrounding surface, installed a new drainage system that feeds into my existing system, replaced cracked concrete with pavers running along two of the walls, installed flashing, and repaired and painted the stucco. I have included some before and after pictures of the interior and exterior of the room for reference. Shalom provided excellent communication and coordination throughout the project, the work was completed in a timely manner, and most importantly, the work was performed to a high standard of quality. Shalom was quick to follow up whenever I reached out with a question or concern about the project and showed patience and consideration in listening and responding to my comments. My understanding was that the Element team had multiple projects running in parallel while they were working on mine, but I never felt like my project was being de-prioritized and I think their overall state of "busy-ness" worked to my advantage because it enabled them to mobilize cadres of workers to my location to make rapid progress on my project. I recognize that mine was far from a contractor's "ideal" project because it was on the smaller end of the spectrum and it involved correcting/mitigating design flaws in an existing structure vs. starting from a blank canvas. Given this, and given disappointing experiences I've had with contractors in the past, I am especially grateful to Element Home Remodeling for providing a comprehensive solution with excellent customer service and helping me reclaim my living space where I now feel comfortable and safe. I wholeheartedly recommend Element Home Remodeling for any remodeling or construction project involving interior or exterior work!!! read more

Our experience with Element Home Remodeling was truly exceptional. We hired them to renovate our kitchen and two bathrooms, and they did a phenomenal job. I was particularly impressed with how responsive Ethan, Refael and the remodeling team were throughout the project. What really set Element Home Remodeling apart, was their professionalism. It was clear that each team member was highly skilled and specialized in their particular area of expertise. The remodeling team were always willing to work with us to find solutions to any issues that arose during the project and any concerns I had were quickly and efficiently addressed. Even though we were living in our home during the remodel, the crew were very considerate of our space and always cleaned up thoroughly at the end of each day. I also appreciated their flexibility in working evenings and weekends to complete the job in a timely manner. With regard to the quality of work, the remodeling team paid great attention to detail and the end result is even better than we could have hoped for. Our new kitchen is both beautiful and fun to use. Both bathrooms are also stunning, and we couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. Living at the house during the remodel wasn't easy and on hindsight renting a place to live at during the remodel would have been a better idea. However, with all that said, Element Home Remodeling delivered a stress free experience, mainly because Ethan and Refael, were on top of things 24/7 and we could not ask for better project managers and service than received. I would highly recommend Element Home Remodeling to anyone read more

My wife and I were searching for contractors for our home remodeling project and found Element Home Remodeling. We couldn't ignore all the positive feedback and beautiful portfolio that the company has. I scheduled a meeting with Refael and Michael which went extremely well. After discussing our needs, they promptly provided us with a detailed proposal, outlining the scope of work, timeline, and cost estimate. The proposal was well-organized and transparent. Both Michael, Refael and the company's architect went out of their way to ensure that the final plan aligned with our vision prior to starting construction. The crew at Element Home Remodeling were incredible to work with. Both my wife and myself were involved in every step of the project and held the team to a high standard of work. The crew were super easy-going and patient with our requests. During the remodeling process, we occasionally encountered unexpected issues. However, Element Home Remodeling handled these challenges efficiently. They kept us informed about the situation, presented viable solutions, and worked with us to find the best way forward. Our home is completely transformed, and we absolutely love every part of it. This was not an easy experience, it took alot of time and effort, but Element Home Remodeling made it easier, and it was definitely worth it. I highly recommend Element Home Remodeling to anyone in search of a skilled remodeling company. read more

As a first time home owner and first time home remodeler, I learned the hard lesson that nothing will ever go smoothly or perfectly during the job. However, that being said Element Home Remodeling did a great job trying to make it the best/smoothest transaction I could ask for. When choosing between Element Home Remodel and other general contractors, I had three quotes; the cheapest was a general contractor that required me to hire my own structural engineer, attend all the building inspections, and be extremely invovled in the remodel which would require me to take time away from my full time job. The most expensive was a similar company to Element however they refused to install a sliding door (structurally demolish parts of a wall) stating that it would take too much time and work to do. Then there was Element which was middle of the market priced. Element was willing and more than happy to put in a new sliding door and do whatever remodel I wanted for the house. What makes Element Home Remodeling different from a normal general contractor is that they provide you a "project manager" who oversees the entire project and makes sure everything is done appropriately. This made my life a lot easier because it allowed me not to be on-site when I ran into termites, building inspection issues, and other problems. The project manager would facilitate/troubleshoot all the problems while you could focus on your actual job (so that you could pay for the remodel). My project manager was also the co-owner, Refael. Refael prides himself on customer service and making sure the customer is satisfied with the project. There were several times where I was not happy with an issue and I'd call Refael with my concerns. Refael would make sure that the issue was addressed and fixed to make sure I was satisfied. Furthermore, during the winter storm of 2022/2023, my basement dealt with a flooding issue and I immediately called Refael. Refael was more than willing to help fix the damage at no cost. Refael is a good man and tries to do good by his customers. read more

The customer service and attention to detail that Element Home Remodeling showed throughout our project was outstanding. Refael and Matt, our project managers were extremely helpful and made this journey a very positive experience. We hired Element Home Remodeling based on a recommendation from one of our neighbors who had worked with Refael and Element Home Remodeling in the past. We had Refael, Matt and their team remodel 3 bedrooms, guest bathroom, master bathroom and our backyard. They did wonders with the house. We also hired them for architectural and design services. During the project we had an issue of not ordering enough tile for one of the bathrooms, this was a mistake made by the company as they had provided us with the quantities to order a few months before starting the remodel. Unfortunately, the tile was discontinued, and we could not order the missing tiles to complete the bathroom. However, Refael and Element Home Remodeling took full responsibility for the matter and helped us choose a new type of tile. They placed a new order with the correct amount for the entire wall on the expense of the company. We did have some setbacks during construction but Refael, Matt and the company were on top of everything and took care of all setbacks in a timely manner. The entire remodel took about 7 months to complete. During this time Refael and Matt became part of the family. We had daily conversations and updates in addition to weekly meetings at the property. The remodeling crew that performed the work were friendly professional and easy to deal with. Overall, working with Element Home Remodeling was a 5 star experience. They were organized responsible, hard working and most importantly did a beautiful job remodeling our home. A big thank you to Refael and Matt for having our backs throughout the project and for making this process as easy as possible. I will definitely be recommending Element Home Remodeling to others. read more

Got recessed lighting done in my home. Met many electricians and contractors but Refael gave me the best quote. Refael is extremely helpful, always reachable and gets the job done. Roberto the electrician and his crew were very good too. They always cleaned the place and made sure nothing was damaged during the course of their work. I would highly recommend people to work with them. Thanks Refael and Roberto for getting the job done. We got 29 recessed lights in a condominium which required city permit. Everything went smooth and am happy with the outcome. read more

I rarely write reviews, but wanted to share our experience to warn anyone considering this company. We hired Element Home Remodeling in 2020 for a remodel of our kitchen, with an attached deck, pergola, and retaining walls. Our project started well, but progressively deteriorated into a living nightmare. We later discovered that most of their online reviews have been faked in an attempt to inflate their reputation. Many reviewers describe projects which never occurred (based on building permit records search, some include stock photos) but are acknowledged by the company ("Nick T.") as if they were real customers. Their reference turned out to be a friend rather than an actual customer. They also appear to rent their RMO license from a retired contractor in Southern California who was not involved in our project. These guys are running a scam and I advise others to steer clear. We chose this company because they were well reviewed, responsive, and represented themselves as having the staff and experience to complete our job quickly and competently. We eventually learned they were a small, inexperienced, and deceptive operation who were in over their heads and struggled their way through our project. There were serious problems with the quality of their work, they caused substantial damage to our property, were arrogant and unprofessional, and failed to properly supervise their workers. The owner, "Refael", was our main point of contact and presented himself as a project manager. He was charismatic, said all the right things, and gave us confidence that we were hiring the right contractor. Their designer was excellent and easy to work with. We shared some Pinterest boards and he came back with design renderings that captured exactly what we wanted. We asked for a reference customer, who was complimentary about the quality of their work. After we signed a build contract in early July, the tone and responsiveness started to change. They began demolition a few weeks later, confident that they would quickly obtain permits, but badly misjudged this and required 3 rounds of review and nearly 3 months before the permits were approved by the city. This was mid-pandemic, so we dismissed our concerns. However, after work started in late October, they caused significant property damage with a tractor, began antagonizing our neighbors, and attempted to shake us down for more money. They left a 10 foot hole in the side of our house completely open to the elements for more than a week and rushed to complete the kitchen remodel on the schedule they had proposed. They treated our driveway like a garbage dump, smoked inside our house, and used our kitchen knives as box cutters. After the kitchen was completed, we began to find serious problems with their work. While the owner made meager attempts to correct some issues, he tried to shift blame and demanded payment on a different schedule than we had agreed. On Christmas day, we had rain water running down our living room and kitchen walls. This happened a total of 3 times through early January, as the contractor repeatedly failed to cover roof penetrations. After they left the job, we had their work independently inspected and discovered even more significant issues with their workmanship. We have spent more than $80k (so far) repairing their damage and defective work, and are currently engaged in legal action. read more

I contacted Element for a kitchen remodel and Sean came out to evaluate. He had some good ideas and some things we may want to improve on. His quote came back quick and the estimate was reasonably priced, but that's where the good ended. There were some questions I had about the quote and some things if they could add/take out of the quote. This is the time to ask questions right? Before the work is done so everyone can be clear on the work. I emailed my questions and then also texted Sean to let him know I went over the proposal and to reach out if there were any questions. I got ghosted. No reply on text or email. It would have been nice to at least say something like we can't do that, but nothing. If the work hasn't been performed yet and you're already ignoring me, how can I be confident that they will respond to me when the work is happening? I may be a one-off, but just being honest with how my experience went and it was not good. read more

Element Home Remodeling did some work for me about 6 months ago and they delivered on their promise of giving their customers a positive experience and professional results. I hired them for a complete home remodel at our new home in San Mateo. When we bought the property we wanted to have it remodeled before moving in. A few of our family members had previously worked with Element Home Remodeling and were happy with their standard of work, so it was the obvious choice for us. They provided a very high standard of work. We choose an extremely complex type of tile in addition to luxury stones that needed cutting and installing on 2 of our bathroom walls. They installed both to perfection. In addition, we had Element Home Remodeling build a custom hood in the kitchen and they did a very clean and precise job. All in all we remodeled the kitchen, 3 bathrooms, dining room and 3 bedrooms.  Everything was double checked and approved by a further two professionals before they signed off on the project. In addition the customer service was excellent. Matt, our project manager was extremely communicative. We had daily phone calls and text messages throughout the entire project. He replied promptly to all our messages even though some were out of work hours. We had weekly meetings in which we went over the work schedule for the following week. The remodeling crew were friendly and took care of our home. We were happy to find out that they are a team of very good people which made things much easier for us. We felt very comfortable working with them. The plan was to complete the entire home remodel in 5 months. However due to a few setbacks there was a months delay. It's important to note however, that even though the delay occurred, the team at Element Home Remodeling were very responsible in dealing with the issues that came up. Not only that, they also took care of things that were outside of our original contract. We love our new home and have had a positive experience with Matt and Element Home Remodeling. We will definitely recommend them to others. read more

I recently remodeled my kitchen with Rephael and Element Home Remodeling, and the entire process was remarkably smooth. The final outcome showcased meticulous attention to detail. From the initial consultation to the final walkthrough, Rephael and Michael, our project supervisors, provided guidance and professional support. They demonstrated professionalism, attention to detail, and a genuine commitment to bringing our vision to life. Throughout the remodel, Rephael kept us well-informed about the progress, timelines, and any necessary adjustments. He listened to our ideas, preferences, and concerns, ensuring that our desired kitchen design was accurately understood and reflected in every aspect of the remodel. Rephael's remodeling team did an excellent job with our kitchen remodeling. The finishes were done with great care and attention to detail. Additionally, the project was completed within the agreed-upon timeframe. I would also like to acknowledge the professionalism and expertise of the entire Element Home Remodeling team, including the designers, skilled tradespeople, and responsive customer service representatives. Everyone involved in the project demonstrated knowledge, respect, and a commitment to ensuring our satisfaction. I am not surprised to see that Element Home Remodeling has a great reputation. I had a very good and productive experience working with this company. read more

Having Ethan as our project manager was a blessing. We had been planning our home remodeling project for a long-time. A close friend of ours hired Element Home Remodeling for their home addition and it turned out beautiful. Towards the end of their addition, they invited us to have a walk through and meet Ethan who was their project manager at the time. The meeting went really well and we knew right there and then that we would like to work with him and Element Home Remodeling. We hired Element Home Remodeling for the complete project, including design and architecture services. Our remodel involved some structural changes which required the assistance of Jamie the company's architect. All in all, the entire plan to permit stage was pretty straight forward and smooth. Although the city weren't easy to communicate with the team at Element Home Remodeling were able to push things forward according to schedule. Ethan was a true asset for this project he was extremely helpful in moving things forward. He was very patient with us but very strict and assertive with vendors and the remodeling professionals. He did not cut corners and went into the nitty gritty details. He made sure that everything was done according to plan and was on top of all the project aspects. The city inspector was impressed with the project's progress and how organized and detailed the remodeling team were. He said that this was a team of professionals who knew their craft. Hiring Element Home Remodeling is a choice that we are happy with. We felt that we were in good hands and that this is a company we could trust to take responsibility for their work. A big thanks to Francisco and the rest of the remodeling team who were respectful and extremely helpful along the way. read more

We have just finished a complete bathroom and kitchen remodel with Element Home Remodeling, and I must say that I had a very good experience with this company The remodel included new floor tiles, converting a tub to a shower, and replacing the vanities in the bathroom. In addition, the kitchen was completely renewed. We installed new tiles, cabinets, countertop with backsplash and new flooring. We also had Element Home Remodeling upgrade the main panel to 200 amps in addition to updating the plumbing. The remodeling team were wonderful. They listened carefully to what we wanted, and went the extra mile to meet our needs. The end result looks even better than what we had planned. The work was completed ahead of schedule, which was an unexpected surprise. We are more than happy with the results, and we would highly recommend Element Home Remodeling to anyone looking to renovate their home. Overall, this remodel has been a wonderful investment, and we are thrilled with the outcome. A big thank you to Refael, our project supervisor, who was fantastic to work with and who gave our project his full attention. read more

We had a very good experience with Element Home Remodeling. They remodeled our bathroom and did a very nice job. Per our request we met with two of their customers at their respective jobsites. They both agreed that Element Home Remodeling were professional and thorough.  In addition  Refael, our project manager made a significant impression on us which made Element Home Remodeling stand out from other contractors that we had met with.  This was a simple but complete bathroom remodel. It took three weeks for the crew to complete the entire job. During that time Refael and his guys were very helpful and made sure that we were updated each day about the progress they were making.  We were present for all the city inspections because we wanted to be sure that everything was done correctly and got the necessary approval, which it did with no problem at all. Working with Refael and Element Home Remodeling was pleasant and easy. We admire their high standards and attention to detail. We appreciate their patience when answering all our  questions and requests. We are considering having a kitchen remodel soon and know who we will hire for the job when we decide to move ahead with it. Thank you Refael, and Element Home Remodeling. read more

Loved what Element Home Remodeling has done with our old kitchen and bathrooms. Our experience with this company is nothing less than amazing, especially considering that this was our first remodeling project. We have never ventured into the world of home remodels before, and we are grateful for the smooth journey that Element Home Remodeling provided. We were referred to Element Home Remodeling and Refael, our project manager, by our neighbors who had worked with the company in the past. Refael guided us every step of the way. He and his head team Francisco were patient and understanding throughout the whole project. The remodeling crew were easy to work with. They were professional and communicative. Element Home Remodeling redesigned the entire room. We had their help while choosing and shopping for materials. This was very helpful as we did not know where to start and really needed their advice. We're very pleased and excited about the final results and can truly say that we had a good experience with Element Home Remodeling. We highly recommend this company. read more

I recently hired Element Home Remodeling to renovate two bathrooms in my 3 bedroom apartment. Both bathrooms were on the small side, the bigger one having a bath which wasn't used at all. I wanted to take out the bathroom and make a large shower as well as changing the floor to ceiling tiles and adding a hanging toilet and vanity, so it would be easier to clean. I more or less had a plan of the layout and colors. But wasn't quite closed about the layout. Element's designers made some big improvements on our original plans and offered some original advice about the layout that we would never have thought of by ourselves. The original bathroom was quite dark and I wanted to go for a lighter more minimal look. I can't believe how different both bathrooms look after the renovations. There is lots of light and much more space, yet we still have the same amount of storage space. I am very happy with the work that has been done. The team of workers that arrived everyday where very professional and pleasant to work with. I hired Element Home Remodeling on the recommendation of a friend, and have no regrets about that choice. I wont think twice about hiring these guys again. read more

Element Home Remodeling remodeled our entire house. We hired them after a long period of interviews with multiple remodeling contractors. We choose Element Home Remodeling because Ethan was very patient, didn't pressure us and we felt that he offered a higher level of customer service than the other companies that we had met with. The estimate that he gave us went into a lot of detail and was easy to understand. It covered all the points that we had discussed at the meeting and gave us a thorough breakdown of the whole project from start to finish. It was very clearly written and after reading it we felt that we knew exactly what the project involved and what we were paying for. We also knew how much the whole thing was going to cost and what we were getting ourselves into. I also appreciated that Ethan warned us that there may be some unexpected costs and that we should include this in our budget. Another big bonus with choosing Element Home Remodeling was that Ethan took us to look at a few ongoing remodeling projects of his so we could meet his remodeling team and see their work. We also got a chance to talk to some of the other homeowners who were undergoing a home remodel. We were pleasantly surprised with what they had to say about both Ethan and the remodeling team. Because the remodel was quite extensive, we were unable to live in the house during the renovations. Luckily for us a close friend offered us the use of her apartment while she went on an extended vacation. However, we were on a timeline and felt a bit pressured. It was very important to us that the project be completed within the limited time that we had. Ethan assured us that he was confident that he and Element Home Remodeling would finish the project on time, and to our great satisfaction, that's exactly what they did.. Like everyone else, I have heard many horror stories of remodeling projects that turned into living nightmares, but in our case, I am happy to say this was not at all what we experienced. Element Home Remodeling proved to be a team of true professionals. Not only were they organized, but they planned a realistic and accurate timeline. They supplied us with daily updates, and we knew that each stage of the project had been approved by Ethan , and the company inspector. Nothing went ahead without receiving our approval. There were no major hiccups or anything worth mentioning during the home remodel. I would summarize it as going smoothly, and the quality of work is outstanding. I can easily recommend Ethan and Element Home Remodeling to anyone looking for a high-quality home remodel. read more

Raphael was an absolute pleasure to work with. I had two bathrooms I wanted remodeled, both required moving a wall and lots of plumbing changes. Raphael came out for an on site estimate, wore a mask, and kept distance. Most other contractors I got quotes from did not want to move the walls or plumbing, they just wanted to replace things. Raphael instead took the time to understand what I wanted, take measurements, talk me through the process, and provide a written quote the same day. Raphael had two designers that helped us pick out the tile, grout, tub, shower hardware, towel bars, vanities, countertops, everything. As someone very dumb with colors and design, this was extremely helpful to ensure the bathrooms look great to anyone, not just me. Throughout the renovations Raphael was always attentive and very responsive whenever I had a question or issue. The subcontractors he brought in were fast, professional, and did outstanding work (check photos of countertops and walk in shower door). Overall, I am very happy with my bathrooms and would gladly hire Raphael and Element Home Remodeling again! read more

My wife and I just moved back into a home that we recently had half of the house gutted and refreshed. The whole process started over a year ago, when we were soliciting bids from various contractors. Ariel and his team came over and gave a competitive bid and a year later, we couldn't be more pleased with our "new" house that has gained a lot more open space and natural light. We had first approached Element Home Remodeling after our architect and structural engineer submitted and had plans approved by the city. We wanted to make sure we could hit the ground running and Element was able to fill that role. Were they the least expensive option? No, but I'll never forget asking Ariel if he thought I needed to replace the roof over the area that they were going to tear up. And being in the roofing industry himself, he said that our roof was actually done very well so I'm sure the company wasn't just trying to get every $ they could. The various teams that came in through the various parts of the project, from demolition, framing, electrical, and plumbing were all very professional and answered and explained in detail whenever I had a question (and believe me, I had plenty!). I would highly recommend Element Home Remodeling again. They really felt like partners throughout the entire process. read more

Work is poorly done, requires constant follow up, and takes much longer than necessary. This was a remodel of a 5'6" x 8' bathroom, no layout changes and replacement of a window with a smaller one. The owner Refael didn't manage the work and when I brought issues to him, gave me a hard time about it, even when I had water leaking into my walls. I have experience building homes, managing subs, and doing the work myself and know that the work was not up to standard. He didn't keep track of any of the discussions we had and left it to me to keep track of outstanding problems. Demolition lasted two days, but concrete grinding the floor was done after the tub was installed. There ended up being multiple gouges in the new tub, I had it resurfaced for the value of the tub. This was the first of two repair visits. They missed one of the two valves for plumbing and one of the bathroom fixtures. This was the first of many back and forth I had getting them on the same page with the agreed and submitted design and parts onsite. I had to insist on the original design and correct installation of fixtures multiple times when they tried to convince me to do things that would be easier for them. Structural framing changes were done AFTER the rough framing inspection. The longer the project went on and the more issues encountered, I started insisting on redoing the inspections for major changes. Wall was reopened after rough plumbing inspection and plumbing redone. Plumbing was sloppy and they only did requested fixes after I insisted on having an inspector out to re-inspect new work. There were large gaps of approx 1" between sheets on a fresh sheetrock install. They tried to fix with mud and 1" strips of cut drywall screwed into corners instead of cutting to size. They ended up later having to remove and re-install quartz slabs because they were not square. The mosaic tile and plumbing fixtures were off center to the tub and some fixtures not square to the wall. Every week brought a new list of problems. Fan not working (he tried to tell me it was just quiet), lighting fixture not secured to the wall, lights flickering, baseboards damaged, corners not mitered, medicine cabinet missing support screws. Stain spilled in driveway, mortar and drywall waste dumped next to the house multiple times. I had to ask to caulk the plumbing fittings to the shower wall so there wouldn't be any leaks into the wall. Refael and Alexis said it shouldn't be caulked. Both myself and the inspector told them it had to be. The window order was sent to three different companies. Every time it was supposed to arrive from one of their suppliers he told me it hadn't been ordered and he brought someone new in. Installing the window caused tiles to pop off of the wall. The bidet seat was installed off center from the toilet, Refael told me that it just "installs that way". I looked up installation instructions and his sub was able to fix. Water was seeping from between the tub and slab of quartz coming from inside the wall with a pinkish brown color. I wiped it away multiple times and it started coming through again. The stone wasn't sealed properly and leaked into the wall. They just added more silicone and the brownish pink water damage continued seeping through the white caulk and had to be redone again. The shower head was leaking between the downspout and the shower head. The temperature on one of the walls only got to a lukewarm and the tub wasn't level. In the end, I gave up on a multiple things when I brought them up and they didn't get addressed. I asked them to stop work, sent final payment and brought in another contractor to finish the detail and rip apart the entire tub stone and tile to level the tub and get the fixtures lined up correctly. read more

I am very pleased with the work that was done by Element Home Remodeling at my property. After interviewing several different remodeling contractors in order to find a good fit for our many requirements and short deadline, I hired Element Home Remodeling. Our home plan involved remodeling a master bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and backyard. The remodeling team were skilled and professional, and I felt that Ben our project supervisor was genuinely interested in my opinion. The designers spent quite a lot of time with me as I am indecisive and I thank them for all their patience. I felt that the price was fair and the quality of work is excellent. Ben who was one of the main reasons why I choose this remodeling company, was helpful and available for the entire remodeling project. Overall, I am very happy with the service that Element Home Remodeling provided. read more

My experience with Element Home Remodeling is very positive. They provided excellent construction service and did very good work. We talked with several potential construction companies to find a company who could take on our construction project at our house in San Jose. The plan was to extend and fully remodel our kitchen and we ended up hiring Refael who was the construction manager and supervisor. As this wasn't a small project, I was very picky when searching for a construction company. Refael made a great impression on me. In addition to offering customer referrals and arranging a meeting at one of his construction sites with Jason, who was a current customer and who was kind enough to let me visit. At that meeting I was able to meet with the construction team and see their work for my own eyes. I was overly impressed with them. The construction site was organized, clean and the work was very detailed. After talking with Jason, the property owner, I was certain that I wanted to work with Element Home remodeling. Before starting the construction, we worked with the company's architects and engineers on creating a plan which was approved by the city with no problems. We also worked with Allen the company's designer. After meeting with him and going over all the details, he created a beautiful 3D design for our project. He also, met with us and helped with choosing materials. We started the construction in no time, and the company sent a team of hardworking respectful and responsible guys. That's when Refael, did his magic and really came through. He provided excellent customer service and immediately took action with any issues that came up. Its important to note that not everything was perfect, but I knew that every large construction project can have some setbacks. The important part that whenever something occurred, they took care of it. It's been a while since we completed the work. The kitchen looks amazing and thanks to the well planned design, we were able to extend the kitchen without having the feeling of losing lots of backyard space. read more

Sean and his team worked with my cousin on a project at his property. I was very impressed with their work and my cousin was very happy with the way that the company and the team handled themselves. Once we knew that Sean and his team were available, we contacted Element Home Remodeling and hired them for our home remodel and kitchen extension. Customer service was fantastic. Our team included an architect and two designers, in addition to a remodeling crew who performed the work. We had to obtain permits before we could start with the work This took some time, but Element Home Remodeling took care of that for us which was nice. Sean was a real professional. He and the remodeling crew started working at our home shortly after we received the permit. During the work, It felt like everything was in order and everyone knew what they were doing. In addition, Sean kept us in the loop of things. All our questions were always promptly addressed, and he was totally there whenever needed. Staying within the project timeline was a bit of an issue. This wasn't a typical home remodel, but the project took longer than we originally planned. This might be because of COVID or the fact that the remodeling team were very detailed. When thinking back on the entire process and considering the quality of work and the beautiful results, Element Home Remodeling gave us a 5-star experience. A big thank you to Sean and his team for the hard work that was put into our beautiful remodeled home. read more

I have waited a year after Element left our job to write this review. It was such a painful experience that I didn't want to relive it, and we are still busy rectifying mistakes and discovering new ones. I now see a warning on Yelp that their reviews are being flagged as fake, and their Houzz profile is suspended, so hopefully they've been outed. I will highlight our issues along the way, which are impossible to list in totality. Our designer repeatedly failed to show up with a design, and finally ghosted us. We were assured that we would have an experienced designer assigned to our project, but that ultimately never materialized. We quickly began to see our project manager, Sean, as equally incompetent and untruthful as he incorrectly ordered the kitchen cabinets, not once, twice, or three times, but FIVE times. He was blaming the cabinet supplier, meanwhile I was communicating with them directly, and he couldn't keep his story straight to either of us. Every time the cabinets arrived at our house, I had to go thru and physically check each one to ensure we had the correct number and size. Sean never caught his own mistakes here. This caused month long delays again. He was, however, eager to get the quartz slabs picked out during this time, so we got that done, and those sat in a warehouse for months while we waited for the cabinets to get resolved. Once the fabricator was ready to get to work, he let us know that we only had 5 slabs and would need 8 to complete the job. We rushed around to return the existing slabs and pick out a new batch, which come installation day, *still* wasn't enough. The disconnect between Element and their hired construction crews was insurmountable, and I resorted to communicating directly with the constructions guys. Francisco saved us many times by catching mistakes in material, ordering errors, size inconsistency. More delays were incurred as Element refused to pay the constriction crew to fix mistakes that were a result of Sean, which laid bare their company's cash flow issue. Once the cabinets were finally installed, it was time to paint them. A whole ordeal in and of itself, the cabinets were primed and painted in one day. Five days later, the paint was already peeling off. They were repainted two more times, and now 10 months later they look like they're 20 year old cabinets, peeling off, rubbed raw at some places, and cracking at seams. Because of their unimaginable lack of planning, and ability, and expertise, so so many things were missed. When it was time to install the garbage disposals, there was no electricity nearby; when the dishwasher was put in, there was not enough space for the pipes; when the existing fridge was put back in, there was no water run to it for the ice maker; when baseboard and door casing were put in, doors were nailed shut and floors damaged; when a small entertainment center was installed, it sagged immediately; when custom false cabinet doors were put on, they were too long; when tile was installed in the bathroom, it was done incorrectly, then in an attempt to fix it, tiles were chipped and just put back on; wall texture was sprayed all over new appliances, floors, and fixtures and left for weeks such that some was never able to be removed. After we asked them to leave the job and made the final payment, there were many lingering issues that we hired a crew to address separately. In the end, we hired an inspector, and discovered ten more issues with the work, including electrical work that was not up to code (and eventually led to our panel catching fire), and plumbing work that was not up to code. When our standalone ice maker was not draining a few months later, we hired a plumber to take a look. While under the house, he discovered that our new sink was not connected to anything. Meaning that the drain was not connected to any piping. Nothing. The drain from the sink was simply dumping water under our house, soaking the piling and beams. This just sums up this company: sloppy, grossly negligent, extremely dishonest. read more

This is my experience with this kitchen remodeling contractor company. Having a full kitchen remodeling project was the last stage of our full home remodeling plan, which we had spread out over the last 3 years. We finally chose Element Home and Kitchen Remodeling Contractors because of Dima, the kitchen remodeling project manager who was sent by the company. He was extremely polite and I felt that I could trust him. He assisted with design ideas and gave a lot of valuable input. We met a couple of times before signing the work contract and I must say that Dima's work ethics are above and beyond. The kitchen remodeling contractors that did the job were very easy to deal with and were very professional. During the project, we had an issues with some materials that didn't arrive on time, but Dima took care of it asap. The kitchen remodeling project included replacing the cabinets, countertops, have plumbing and electrical work done and replacing the tiled floor. It as been some time since the we finished with the kitchen remodeling project and during this time there were some small changes that we wanted to make. The company did not hesitate in fulfilling those changes. I would like to add the that the staff at the office were more than helpful and were always available. Overall, a good experience with this kitchen remodeling company. read more
