He demanded that I provide my identifying information, ignored my request for privacy based on the review, and made accusations that I used a fake contractor. It was irksome enough to remove an additional star. Remainder of review remains in tact.] As first time homeowners, we discovered that the market for construction/ remodel help is difficult to find in San Diego. It's hard to filter out the reliable reviews from those who are associated to the business owners. This is heavily prevalent on Yelp and exceptionally so for service providers: it's important to notice how many of those 5 star reviewers have (1) no yelp activity, (2) no yelp friends, and (3) created the yelp account close in time to the date the review was placed. You should be cautious of the veracity of these reviews. With Treeium, you'll find a that there are some valid reviews and some questionable. I lend mine as one backed by evidence. To date I am the only Yelp Elite reviewer. I'd be happy to pass along my complete sentiments privately. I selected Treeium from -- you guessed it-- yelp. My husband, who's the more calm and friendly individual between us two, was the one to receive the initial marketing pitch from the company (we'll leave identification of individuals private). Overall, I would say they do a great pitch. The representative that they send is friendly, knowledgeable, and conveys a strong level of confidence in how the project will go, etc. The individual came back a second time to talk to me with my husband.. and even I was thoroughly convinced by the pitch. Once you sign the paper, that's where the rollercoaster ride starts. The first guys that came in were kind enough to lay down carpet covers to avoid stomping around in our Asian household (read: NO SHOES INSIDE) and on our brand new carpet. Subsequent contractors were less respectful and didn't bring shoe covers. We had to lay down our own carpet covers. Thankfully I wasn't present for most of the process because I'm sure I would have raised hell through each phase. They were relatively timely on the breakdown and removal. There were strong initial attempts to protect our property and minimize the construction mess. But once the actual work started, it seemed like there was just problem after problem. There were many pros and cons.. pros are evident by the final bathroom being done (finally).. My biggest qualms however were: (1) PRICE: we had to pay for a lot of additional things after the quote that just kept getting tacked on the original quote. It was frustrating to find out that certain tiles or things that we wanted were unavailable or could not be incorporated. We had to settle on several aspects. There is a payment plan option to make it more palatable. In retrospect, I think the project was on the higher end of what we could have found elsewhere. (2) FAILURE TO MEET TIMELINE: this is the MOST irksome part. We were told 4-6 weeks.. it took almost three months. With the various contractors that are required in any one job, I understand that the more parties there are.. the more likely there will be scheduling problems. But the timeline was edging on unreasonable. (3) AVERAGE COSMETIC JOB: I have never heard a contractor tell me your wall is crooked, therefore, there will be a gap between tile and wall in order have a straight tile surface. It's a minor aspect but gap bothers me every day like an itch in a spot you can't reach. Also, the white tiles that were chosen were shaved at the corners, leaving ugly brown rounded corners amidst the white tiles. Another itch. Also, we opted to keep the bathtub. They cracked the bathtub with removing the old parts around the tub. Rather than fix the tub, we were told we could pay more for someone to fix the cracked porcelain or go buy our own fix it kit. After all the extra costs, we opted for the fix it kit.. which i think is ridiculous. Oh but by the time we got around to it, the tub started to rust in the places where they damaged it. When you step back and look at the overall reno, it does look better than what we had. We're generally happy with the final product (my husband more than I)... and it is definitely an improvement. We did refer Treeium to another group of friends who did an even bigger project, but they had the exact same complaints we did so I feel that our comments are valid and verified. Prior to the unpleasant communications received from Eran Chan, I would have been happy to share that Treeium is *capable* of doing a good job and that we might return. With his harassment, I don't foresee our return or further referral.

Too bad Yelp doesn't allow for no stars - these contractor's don't even deserve one star. These…read moreguys are a bunch of corner cutting hacks. They remodeled my grandmother's bathroom, replaced some drywall and lights in the kitchen. They are completely careless of details, did not properly prepare or finish the job and their work is crap. They even sat my 80 year old grandmother down to watch her give them a yelp review at the beginning of the job before even starting on the work. Talk about having dishonest business practices and taking advantage of the elderly! There's screwed up grout, nails showing on thru the drywall and paint, areas they painted and didn't tape off etc. They didn't even have the decency to replace the outlet covers on a full bathroom remodel and left the hallway light cover completely bare. Like I said cheap and cut corners. They refused to come back and properly take care of their sloppy work until my grandmother paid them in full. Even the contractor that came out to inspect the work indicated that aspects of the work done were not up to par. Photos added to business since yelp does not allow them on reviews as of yet. On top of that, they did not haul away any of the construction waste and left my grandmother to deal with trying to fit that into a normal garbage can. Word of advice - do not hire these jokers - there are so many other companies out there that do provide excellent service - this company just isn't one of them. I will note the project was completed Dec 2013. They came out and fixed a few things related to painting the hallway in Jan 2014 however my grandmother was told the work has to stop somewhere. Essentially they didn't do the job right and by example of my last photo uploaded it they don't believe they did it right. Called the review not fair but that's what reviews are for. They did offer to come fix it at no charge today however to protect my grandmothers house we are not allowing them anywhere near it. Just an update, Eran their officer manager posted a couple pictures of the bathroom afterwards in an effort to do damage control and I am glad they did because none of them are close-ups yet you can still see how the grouting is going over the glass tiles and the little patch above/behind the shower head where there's grout basically rubbed on with a finger and never cleaned. Additionally they don't show the wall they filled where screws are visibly protruding and of course they didn't show any of the hall way or kitchen ceiling. Just be sure to not pay this contractor until the job is completely done and done right!

He has a great craftsman crew. He gets the job done when he said. Prices are right on, seem appropriate. Jasmin Quality Construction has laid a replacement 100 foot sewer line removing cement stoop and what seems like a mile of red brick patio. The new cement stoop is a better design than original and the new brick patio looks so sharp, nice and even. The improvement to the drainage and the patio was worth the disruption. This job also involved redoing a leaning over retaining wall and a neighborly fence on top of it. Humberto fixed the gate and other little things that were not listed but made the job complete. I wish I had a finished picture. He has done other jobs for us. One was to rebuild a 40 year old 20' x 10' overhead lattice entrance to the back. He found the rotten wood and replaced, stained the whole thing and its ready to last another 40 years. Another job was finding and repairing the leak in the main water line running under a cement pad for guest parking. It is done better than new using updated products to protect the water line. I wish more people would write reviews because Humberto and Jasmin Construction should have the attention they deserive.

I couldn't accomplish my development and renovation goals over the last few years without them. The breadth of their knowledge and experience ranges from ground up new construction to every sub-category of construction on the spectrum for the simplest of renovation to the most daunting. Interior and Exterior, they have done it all for me to the highest quality. I have been in the investment property business for 20+ years and have worked with a myriad of GC's and sub-contractors. Many have been very painful to work with lack luster results. I am a big believer in doing business with people who do what the say they will do, show up when they say they will, have pride in their results, and attention to detail, warranty their work, offer complete transparency in pricing, contracts, and business dealings, complete projects on time, and have excellent communication throughout the entire process. In construction, to find a leader and team that hits on all cylinders is usually a pipe-dream. Look no further. Thanks Frank, Noe, and Team Complete Builders. Jason Smith Multifamily Properties
