Not an easy job and unfortunately needed because of a goof-up by the original installer. They figured out how to do the job, arrived when expected, charged reasonably for the degree of difficulty to complete the work, and nothing broke, cracked, or fell apart.

Not only does the new floor look fantastic, Enrique also helped eliminate a lot of the squeaking noises from my old floor--something I really appreciate. Overall, great experience--high-quality work, reliable service, and someone I would definitely recommend to friends and family.

See water damaged floor photos attached. I texted Enrique. We arranged a time to meet quickly after I reached out. He came out to our house and discussed our options. We agreed on the work to be done. He provided a bid within 24 hours. When we originally texted, Enrique was clear that he could not come right away. We were willing to wait. Once Enrique was available to start, he reached out by text immediately. It had been only a couple of weeks since he bid for the job. Enrique showed up early on the agreed-upon first day but texted to indicate his presence on the property before ringing the bell. We reviewed access options and determined the back entrance of the house. On the first day, he covered all the cupboards with plastic. See the covered cupboards photo attached. Then he sanded the floor while vacuuming up behind himself the whole time. See attached sanded floor photos. He stained the floor with our chosen color. He cleaned up behind himself and left for the day. On day two, he came and applied the finish. Then he cleaned up meticulously. The result looks great! See the final photos attached. We highly recommend K&k Flooring and Enrique!

I hired Eduardo about three years ago to remodel two bathrooms at the same time. He and team were…read morefriendly and the finished appearance looked good, but unfortunately one bathroom developed a hidden moisture problem that has now required full remediation and reconstruction (thousands of dollars worth of repair) When I opened the wall, I discovered that the exterior bathroom wall had old insulation, old vapor paper, and no proper moisture management behind the new drywall. This created a condensation trap in winter that eventually led to mold inside the wall cavity and peeling paint on the surface. The other bathroom--built at the same time--did not have this issue, which is what helped us figure out that this was not a house-wide moisture problem, but instead a wall-assembly oversight specific to that remodel. To be clear: I'm not questioning their friendliness or effort, but proper bathroom remodeling requires evaluating insulation, vapor control, and the condition of exterior walls during demo, especially when replacing drywall on an exterior-facing wall. That step didn't happen here, and it ultimately created a significant expense and inconvenience down the road. I've removed my initial positive review because, while the bathrooms looked nice on day one, this kind of behind-the-wall oversight matters. I hope the company takes this as constructive feedback for future projects. Customers should make sure that insulation, vapor strategy, and exterior-wall conditions are verified when remodeling a bathroom - especially one with drywall on an outside-facing wall.

I've known Eduardo and the team at E&E General Construction for about 10 years now, and I'm happy…read moreto write this review because I truly believe they make life easier. They've become an integral part of both our home and business improvements. Eduardo started with handyman work, and we quickly trusted his team with a full bathroom remodel. Years later, they transformed our kitchen into a beautiful space we love, all while following our design vision. Over the years, they've handled everything from minor repairs to urgent fixes at a mixed-use building we own. Most recently, they took on a major project--converting our two-car garage into a fantastic ADU and building a one-bedroom apartment above it. Their craftsmanship, dependability, smart problem-solving, and fair pricing are top-notch. Whether it's a large remodel or an urgent repair, they are our trusted team. I can't say enough good things about Eduardo--you'll love working with them.

We discuss and adjust as needed. He provides good ideas and selects skilled subs. All the crew members are friendly and do excellent work.

After multiple (failed in many ways) attempts by them, Jesus came in and finished off the cabinet. We were pleased, so we commissioned him to build a display stand for the top of that cabinet. Again, gorgeous. Finally, I needed a stand for a Javanese mask my brother sent me from Thailand. Jesus had some leftover Ipe from another job and from that he constructed the perfect stand for it, a dark, lustrous wood that matched the color of the mask. The cost was very reasonable, though not cheap. He's easy to work w/ and his work is excellent.

We were doing a full remodel and I really wanted the look of a sleek floating vanity cabinet - after looking everywhere, I knew I had to have one custom made. Of course I was worried about the price. Well, I got lucky. After almost going with home depot, I found Jesus and the price was actually comparable. All I had for a plan was a drawing of a floating rectangle with some drawers, and some pictures I had from the internet. I met Jesus at his shop - which, well, isn't in the best neighborhood - but whatever - it's a wood-shop. (made me feel all edgy driving into Richmond :) The point is that Jesus was very welcoming and easy to work with. Gave me full control of whatever wood choice I wanted. Initially I was thinking of some other type of wood, I forget the name, but then I saw a slab of walnut laying against one of the walls and fell in love with it. I asked if I could change my mind and go with the walnut, and he was just like, "sure, whatever you want." I then also asked if he could build some floating shelves and a tub curtain out of the same wood, and again, his response was just as easy going and positive. He actually ended making the tub curtain out of the exact piece of walnut that I initially fell in love with - which has an awesome pattern. Anyway, he's a great guy. does great work. product looks great and is very solid. He even came to my house after the vanity was installed to drill the holes and put in the handles himself. I wish there were more people like Jesus in the world :) Now check out the photos.
