After our modular home manufacturer unexpectedly canceled our order, we felt lost and unsure of how…read moreto move forward with building a new second unit on our property. That's when we met Doug -- and everything changed. Our project wasn't simple. The permit required us not only to build a brand-new house but also to renovate and legalize the existing old house. Doug stepped in, redesigned the new unit beautifully, and reimagined the old house so the two complemented each other perfectly. The construction of the new home went incredibly smoothly. Doug's professionalism, craftsmanship, and attention to detail were evident every step of the way. The quality of his work truly exceeded our expectations. The renovation of the old house turned out to be much more complex than expected, but Doug handled every challenge with steady leadership and creativity. He brought the right people together, found thoughtful solutions, and kept the project moving forward steadily through each difficulty. His dedication and calm problem-solving turned a demanding process into a truly rewarding experience. The whole process took nearly five years -- but in the end, we have two beautiful homes that feel cohesive, warm, and full of life. Doug's commitment, honesty, and heart carried us through. We're deeply grateful for his expertise and friendship throughout this journey. If you're looking for someone who truly cares about your home as much as you do, Doug and his team are the ones to call. We can't recommend them enough.

Douglas Fernandez of Fernandez Design and Builders in San Jose remodeled my entire home in 2007 and…read moredid such an excellent job; my home now is so beautiful and unique & a great fit for my way of life. The good news is that he was so fair and honest; he really watched costs which is so unusual, and in the end, I could be so much more innovative and creative and do so much more than I could have been with any another contracting firm; even more importantly, we had such a good time working together (even the demolition which I dreaded was a piece of cake because of Doug). I left throughout the remodel on many business trips, & there was so much progress and usually a surprising new touch Doug added every time I returned home. Since then, Doug has been there for me on many other occasions. The good news is that Doug is happy with and enjoys smaller remodeling jobs as well. Last year my outside deck came away from its stucco wall & needed a complete retrofit, including adding more structural columns to further support the deck. He loves a good challenge and coming up with great creative and exciting solutions that are brilliant, yet not expensive. Doug's cell is 510-377-9711. Do not hesitate to contact me for further information; my cell is 650-804-8894. Best wishes, Kaaren Powers

Just moved into my house and am just floored by the incredible work done by the team at Greenberg!…read moreI was originally skeptical of such a major remodel - every friend had horror stories of contactors doing sub par work, disappearing, completely, etc. I was really glad to work with Ohad, our project manager for the project. He'd worked with one of our friends previously, and so we knew he'd do a great job for our project. We also loved Greenberg's integrated approach. The architect, constructions, design and management was all done by Greenberg. This meant that the project from top to bottom was aligned with the team actually doing the construction work. My top priorities were 1) a modern home design 2) a job done with high quality 3) low stress. Ohad / Greenberg helped deliver on all of these aspects in spades. The last thing I wanted to do was have to coordinate with flaky contractors, have to re-do low quality work after a long day at work. Ohad kept the project on track and handled all the hassle of dealing with subcontractors & inspectors. Greenberg probably won't be the cheapest contractor you'll talk to, but as the saying goes - you get what you pay for. Quality work, up to code, and no drama is well worth the cost. Ohad worked with us throughout the project to consider different budget options, and gave candid advice about where he thought the budget would be best spent. Overall, highly recommend. I was referred by a friend and have put multiple friends in touch with Greenberg for their projects as well. Everyone is floored by house nice our remodel turned out and will 100% be in touch in the future for any future projects we have.

I chose Greenberg for my whole-home remodel because I wanted a true full-service design-build firm…read more From the initial site visit, Ohad immediately understood my vision and took care of the rest. One of the biggest highlights was the design process; their team curated high-quality material options based on my vision board, saving me from the overwhelming experience of wandering through massive showrooms. When I visited the Greenberg showroom, the team presented their design with all my samples ready to view in-person. The logistical side was equally impressive. They handled the entire San Mateo permitting process. Once construction began, Ohad and I stayed in constant contact via text and phone to address any issues or decisions that needed to be made. He also kept me up to date with many photos of the construction. Everyone warned me that a project like this would take well over a year and go way over budget, but Greenberg completed construction in just 10 months and kept change orders to a minimum. I had such confidence in Ohad's attention to detail that I didn't even visit the site until the project was almost finished. The result is a total transformation that maximizes every square foot of my home without the need for a massive addition. My parents were so impressed they have already hired Greenberg for their own remodel.

We hired DevArt8 to build a 600 sqft detached ADU in our backyard in Santa Clara. The finished…read morespace has one bedroom, a full kitchen, a bathroom, and a covered patio. We mainly use it as a home office during the week and a comfortable place for family and friends to stay when they visit. DevArt8 handled everything from the initial design and permitting to construction and the final certificate of occupancy. The entire project took about seven months. One thing we really appreciated was how they managed the permitting process with the City of Santa Clara. We had no experience with ADU requirements or building codes, but they took care of everything and kept us informed without overwhelming us with technical details. Communication was consistent throughout the project, the crew was professional, and the final result turned out exactly how we had hoped. If you're looking for an ADU builder in Santa Clara, we'd definitely recommend giving DevArt8 a call.

They were clear about the process, realistic about timelines, and didn't overpromise. The San Jose ADU permits side was what worried us most, but they handled it in a structured way. We always knew what was submitted, what we were waiting on, and what the next step would be. That level of communication made the entire project feel calm. The build itself is excellent. Everything feels solid and well finished, from the framing to drywall, electrical, plumbing, and final details. The layout is functional and it doesn't feel like an "extra unit" at all, it feels like a small custom home. We've had multiple friends ask who built it because the quality shows. If you're looking for ADU builders in San Jose who actually know the permit process and deliver high level craftsmanship, DevArt8 is a great choice.

Highly Recommend Rose Remodeling and Adir!…read more We converted one full bathroom into two full bathrooms and met with several designers and contractors before choosing Adir and Rose Remodeling -- and we're so glad we did! Adir's quotation was very reasonable, and from the start, he was honest about what was possible and what wasn't. He took the time to educate us on each step of the process and personally guided us through all the material selections. Compared to other contractors who wanted us to visit their offices and work separately with architects, Adir made everything simple and seamless. He also helped us obtain a full permit before starting the project. Adir worked closely with the architect, finalized the design, submitted the plans to the city, and handled all communication with the city throughout the process. He kept us informed at every stage -- from plan review to inspections -- and personally attended each inspection. He made sure everything was completed correctly, on time, and without any shortcuts. His preparation and organization were impressive -- he outlined clear milestones for the entire project, and to our surprise, everything was executed right on schedule. Adir and his team also went the extra mile to fix unexpected issues that weren't part of the original plan. He even helped with last-minute requests like installing recessed lights, patching walls, and fixing a small leak. We're extremely happy with how the project turned out and truly appreciate Adir's professionalism, transparency, and attention to detail. The photos honestly don't do justice to the quality and craftsmanship of the finished work -- it looks even better in person! We're uploading some pictures to share just how beautifully everything came together. We would absolutely recommend Rose Remodeling to anyone looking for quality work and a stress-free experience.

Their communication was excellent, they stayed completely on schedule and they kept us, very much, involved in every decision. Tony was great in overseeing the whole project while Amit was on top of day-to-day progress. Highly professional!

NuHome's flexibility (even creativity) in working around these delays got the job done. Great service!

We hired NuHome Remodeling for our house remodeling which started with addition and 3 bath room…read moreremodel, but ended up with pretty much full house remodel including the full kitchen remodeling as well. The project managers that we had worked with were Tony, Issac and Amit. The experiences that we had with the team were exceptional, Tony and his team leads were very professional, patient, attentive to details, and transparent to the cost. They were excellent in communications and never delay responding to our messages, usually within a few minutes or within hours for any questions that we ask at any time of the day. In terms of services, they are like one stop shop that includes almost everything that we need from a contractor for remodeling so it really saved a lot of our time from talking with different people for different phases of the remodel. Their team has the architect who started with the floor plan with us, with a lot of back and forth discussions and our inputs taken into considerations. After we agreed and finalized the plan, they submitted it to the city for the permit. Since the architects and the construction team are under the same leadership of NuHome, in our case, Tony, this saves a lot of later potential integration problems between the architectural plans and the executions of the construction. During the construction, there were a few times that we changed our plans, for example, changing the size of the closet and pantry, Tony and the team were accommodating it; and in the middle of the construction, we were also changing the type and the number of outlets and the spot lights, Tony and the team were also incorporated that as well. We also had changed the plan for the TV ascent wall, and the team were fully in corporation and working with for the change, which turned out to be beautiful. Another area that really pleased and benefit us was NuHome has excellent interior designer who had worked with us closely in designing the bathrooms, and helping us picking up the right materials that worked perfectly for us, this saved us so much potential headache as we pretty much knew nothing in this field. The three bathroom designs turned out beautifully and exceeded our expectations. We would definitely attribute this to the team deep dedication of putting customers' need first, in addition to the construction team's skill set. The team has made sure to take care of our need from the very beginning to the end of the project, for little things like making sure we have the new lock after the whole project is done is even within their considerations, so we are moving into our new home feeling happy, comfortable and safe. Thanks so much to the team for their excellent work, and we are definitely going to recommend NuHome Remodeling.

Initially we were put in contact with Yazan who walked us through the process and showed us some recent ADU's that the company had built. Yazan was very responsive and stayed involved throughout the entirety of the project, helping with cabinetry and other design details along the way. Although we were a bit hesitant on the price at first, when things were all said and done we stayed within budget (as Yazan had promised). There were some minor delays along with the way but the project finished ahead of schedule in just under 5 months. It did take a bit longer than expected to get our permit at the beginning, but once the project started, things moved rather quickly and efficiently. We were particularly impressed with the efficiency of the foundation and framing crew. The structure went up quite quickly. Our project manager Alex was very knowledgeable straightforward. At times he was a bit blunt, but we appreciated the honesty and responsiveness. He always made time to make sure our needs were addressed and our concerns were listened to, with action plans to resolve provided immediately. We are very happy with our new ADU and the experience with VHB overall!!

I cannot emphasize how happy we are with Gili and his team. We hired them to do a kitchen remodel…read morewith some structural elements, and we were blown away. I've worked with many contractors in the past, and a lot of them say "we just want you to be happy", but Gili and his team truly meant it. Firstly, Gili introduced us to one of his designers, who helped us lock-in on a design that satisfied all of our needs. Then, his team provided photorealistic renderings of the space, which were so good that they were in distinguishable from the final product. We knew exactly what we were going to get before any construction started, which was invaluable. Gili's team was extremely coordinated with permitting, material ordering, and work completion. We didn't have materials that we had to store for long periods of time, because they had a strong idea of when we would need to place the orders so that they would arrive right on time. In the Bay Area, where we don't have a lot of space, this was amazingly helpful. The final product was exactly what we wanted, and throughout the process Gili continued to check in and make sure that everything was perfect. We were so happy with the work, that we plan to reach out to clever design for all of our projects moving forward.
