The best! My mom hired Gilor Construction for a full ADU remodel at her house, and the experience…read moreexceeded expectations. They started in mid-December and finished by April 7, earlier than we anticipated, and that timeline included a major setback: an 80-foot redwood tree fell on the house during a Christmas storm. The roof was crushed, part of the structure separated, and we lost power for nearly a week. It was a stressful situation, and they handled it. They repaired all of the damage and still completed the full project within budget. That alone says a lot about how they run their jobs. Or Haim, the owner, is very communicative and genuinely cares about making sure everything meets expectations. That level of involvement made a difference. The fantastic onsite team was led by Jesus, who treated the project like it was his own home. He was thoughtful, detail-oriented, and clearly took pride in the work. We would absolutely hire Gilor again and are happy to serve as a reference.

We had an excellent experience with Gilor Remodeling Group, especially Jesus (project manager) and…read moreArturo (one of the work crew). We've done several other home improvement projects in the past and had such a headache with the contractors and sub-contractors not showing up when they said they would, or not paying attention to details, so I know how rare it is to find a contractor you actually like! Plus, their bid came in much lower than the three other contractors who quoted for us. We replaced four bathroom vanities which seemed like a small project, but required more skilled work than we originally imagined - including redoing plumbing and moving electrical to accommodate the new layout of vanity, mirrors, and lighting. The crew was very careful to cover surfaces to prevent damage (and also avoid dust getting on all our things) and to clean up their tools and equipment at the end of each day so we could have our space back. Arturo did really stellar work and clearly pays attention to the small details, like smooth caulking lines and patching each little area of drywall and paint to ensure a completely finished project. Their communication was great, and when we ran into a few hiccups with how to best install wainscoting, Jesus ensured we were happy with the plan before the crew moved forward with it. All in all, we really recommend Gilor and will be using them again for future home projects.

HHR returned to complete a beautiful renovation on our second floor…read morejust two years after the first floor (reviewed in July 2024). Jason again coordinated the planning and permit process seamlessly and also worked with the City of Alameda to upgrade the electrical service to our house. They created a stunningly beautiful total remodel of the guest bathroom with new bathtub, gorgeous tile work and perfect installation of new vanity, fixtures, grab bars, lighting. There was excellent timing of the many stages of construction, with a smooth daily sequence of the teams of highly skilled and professional electricians,plumbers, carpenters and painters. We always received excellent communication for the schedule of work. There was hardly ever a weekday without substantial work taking place. All the workers were highly skilled, tremendously helpful, cheerful and professional. It was truly a pleasure to deal with the entire team. With these two renovations, HHR has now totally redone our three bathrooms, installed pocket doors, reconfigured closets, installed new wood flooring, and performed many electrical and lighting improvements. We are 100% pleased with the results of both of the renovations. Home Healing Renovations are the very best and are highly recommended.

We recently completed a kitchen and bathroom remodel with HHR, and we could not be happier with the…read moreresults! From start to finish, the team was professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely committed to making sure the finished spaces were exactly what we envisioned. A remodel is a major undertaking, and there are inevitably a lot of decisions and moving pieces along the way. What really stood out to us was the quality of the work and the attention to detail. Our kitchen and bathroom have been completely transformed, and the finished spaces are both beautiful and functional. The craftsmanship is excellent, and the entire team and crew clearly take pride in their work. They were thoughtful about the details, worked hard to keep everything moving and on schedule, and were always willing to answer questions and make adjustments along the way. We would absolutely recommend HHR to anyone considering a remodel. After having to put our remodel on hold for over a year, we came back to work with them, and we are so very glad we did. Thank you, Jason, Sadie, Dylan, and the entire crew, for all of your hard work and for helping bring our vision to life!

Hired to replace and repair siding so we could prime and paint. Also installed a new sliding door…read more Dennys was very professional, on time, knowledgeable, and had a fair price. The team did a good job, but we did notice some of the patch jobs falling apart or allowing bubbles to form after we painted. Considering how bad the siding was in places, I'm not shocked but it would have been nice if they had pulled us aside to replace the boards that weren't serviceable instead of patching. Despite everything, would recommend working with Longshore.

While we ran into some extra costs and timeline delays due to the permit process--which wasn't entirely unexpected--his communication throughout the project was top-notch. He was consistently responsible, kept me informed every step of the way, and ultimately got the job done very well. Highly recommended if you are looking for someone reliable and communicative.

We've worked with Eulises and his team on several projects throughout our home, including our…read morebathrooms, attic, and garage, and we feel very lucky to have found him. His team does beautiful, high quality work and is someone we've really come to trust. He and his crew are punctual, efficient, and reliable. They show up when they say they will, work hard throughout the day, and clean up at the end of every day. That has made living through multiple renovation projects so much easier. He's also always been fair and transparent with us. Additionally if we notice something after the work is done or there's a small issue that needs to be addressed, he's responsive about coming back and making it right. Our bathroom turned out beautifully, and we're so happy with the finished space. There were a lot of details involved, and his team did a great job bringing everything together. (& I value attention to detail in almost an OCD way lol) The fact that we've continued to hire him for project after project probably says it best. Having a contractor you trust in your home is invaluable, and we really appreciate the relationship we've built with him. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to friends and family and will absolutely work with him again.

2nd Review Addendum:…read more Miri, S&I owner, reached out to me to resolve the issues mention in the original review. She offered to discuss the issues and have workers come out to make things right. By this time, but I had encountered the issues mentioned in the first review addendum. I don't want her employees or day laborers anywhere on my property. After providing her with an advance copy of the first review addendum, Miri responded with a reimbursement offer of $3,000. I accepted the reimbursement. I still regret hiring S&I to work on my property. I recommend you do you extra due diligence before hiring them. I don't trust their high-star rating.

We have done at least 6-7 projects with Integrity Paint at our house…read more Simply put: we go to them for everything. Large-scale, small-scale...whatever we need. Ben, Octavio, and team are reliable, responsible, and punctual. Also, they are just generally nice, friendly, respectful guys to have around the house. They take pride in their work, always deliver top notch, detail-oriented outcomes, and they are clean. Their pricing is transparent and fair. They don't try and upsell you on things you don't need. For example, there was something we wanted the team to do that was actually an easy thing my wife and I could have done. Ben told us that and then gave us some tips for how we could do it. That's the kind of trust that makes you go back to someone again and again. Projects the team has done for us: - Garage remodel - Basement remodel - Wall crack repairs - Exterior fascia and roofing repairs - Outdoor shed - Multiple interior and exterior paint jobs - Mounting and other small odd jobs Below is a before and after picture of our garage just to give you a sense of how good they are.

Ben and Patrick from Integrity Paint initially came to our home to discuss options for interior and…read moreexterior paint. We ended up discussing much more of our remodeling project already in progress, including framing and even structural considerations, and they thoughtfully walked us through general options we might not have considered otherwise. They were so knowledgeable and engaged throughout, and genuinely enthusiastic about what could be done, which made the whole conversation useful and easy. Even though we didn't move forward on this particular project, we were so impressed by their attitude and technical depth, and we wouldn't hesitate to call them again or recommend Integrity Paint to others.

Josh and his team were reliable, punctual, and extremely easy to communicate with throughout the entire project. They sent updates via email and text, and explained all the nuanced details in an easy to understand way. What stood out most was their ability to problem-solve and find solutions when challenges came up, especially when working with the city of SF, which is quite a feat. Josh was approachable, dependable, and always made me feel like my questions and concerns were heard. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy contractor.

We just finished a major home addition, kitchen remodel, covered patio, and HVAC modernization…read moreproject with RW&B. I told Josh in our last conversation that I'll call him for the next one. I highly recommend them. There are some mechanical things about doing a major project that matter for your quality of life, on which RW&B is excellent. 1) The team is there every day. 2) Change orders are straightforward. 3) Specialists are scheduled promptly and are reliable. 4) Parts purchasing is well planned. 5) The job site is clean. 6) Communications are frequent and consolidated in the group chat. Where RW&B really stands out is design vision and finish quality. We took 5 bids for the project. We chose to go with Josh because in our first meeting, he took the time to inspect and understand the space and the opportunity. He translated our idea and improved on it--throughout the project. In the kitchen, he's the one who suggested moving the range to the other wall, freeing up the floor-to-ceiling pantry cabinets and built-in appliances we wanted. For the covered patio space, all I had was a shape and vibes. He took that roughest outline, built it out, made suggestions for the finishes, and designed the beam wraps which took it to the next level. We felt that he & the team shared our desire to build something that mattered. Living in the space now, we can't even remember the before-time. It feels so natural, and fits what we wanted exactly. Highly recommend Red White and Blue Construction.
