    Did an amazing job replacing my 20 year old HVAC and AC units, something several people kept bidding me up for. GroundUp was very fair and efficient, will always recommend them.

    I'll let the pictures speak for themselves on how impressed I have been with the results of my back yard. It was a pleasure to work with field manager Adi Aiish, who when we started this project held true to his promise to come back and fix any issues that may come up. I highly recommend GUB for two reasons: 1 All construction projects will encounter some unexpected hurdles and issues. I've learned this through my experience with GUB and also other companies. But what I am most concerned about is the willingness to resolve the issues. Adi promised me that on day 1 and even after 3 months following the completion of the project, they stood to that 100%. Not only did they own up, but they didn't make me jump trough loops and hoops to resolve the issues. 2 Communication with Adi was amazing! If you're like me that you want to stay involved with the project but not want to project manage, then you'll appreciate Adi's ability to keep you up to speed every day. At times I would get heated, but Adi was my Zen master through all this. After all is said and done, and having the experiences with GUB (both good and not so good) I would hire Adi and his crew 100% again. I have the backyard I've always wanted and thanks to this team, it's now a reality.

    Ground up builders is an immaculate firm for all your home improvement needs. My aunt wanted a backsplash and some work done in her kitchen. They came out gave her options on what she wanted showed pictures of other work they have done along the same lines of work and gave her a great bid. We called them back after a few days to go through with the project and the work was done in no time. We have since had non stop compliments from her friends and neighbors they love the upgrades her home is older so definitely an improvement! Thank you ground up for everything we will definitely recommend you time and time again.

    Ground up Builders did a great job on our kitchen. Beginnongvwoty the initial meeting with Peter our project manager, my husband and I knew we would use them. The workers cleaned up after themselves, polite and did a great job. Our outcome super exceeded our expectations. Thanks again!

    Talked to 4-6 builders in the area before finally working with Sean on building out our dream home in Pasadena . Finest quality builder and took no short cuts at all! Highly recommend!

    MRI Construction & Remodeling

    MRI Construction & Remodeling

    Our electric cooktop and hood broke many months ago, and we thought that replacing it with a gas…read morecooktop and new hood would be straightforward. It turns out that was not true. One plumber could install a gas line only, another plumber could install a gas line and the gas cooktop but not the hood, and an appliance installation technician could not install the cooktop because he could not cut into the existing granite top. So I found Max of MRI Construction and Remodeling on Yelp, and he said that he could do the work within that original scope -- cooktop, hood, and gas line -- but that we should anticipate a backup plan in case the granite cracked during installation. Because we plan to live in this house for as long as possible, we decided to go through a full kitchen renovation. We had a prior experience with another general contractor who was impossible to get a hold of and who could not ensure the quality of the subcontractors he hired, and interviewed another general contractor who gave us the impression that we would have to engage with suppliers and subcontractors more than seemed feasible. We are happy to say that we just finished our kitchen renovation last week! And it was finished a week earlier than scheduled. We are thankful to Max and his team of subcontractors! We are really happy with the final kitchen, given how much we cook at home. And surprisingly the process was easy despite its size and time of 6 weeks. Max has the strengths and qualities you want for your construction projects: he's incredibly responsive, honest and communicative, and willing and able to troubleshoot issues that come up, as they invariably do, both small and large. He makes recommendations if you ask and gives you options for decisions for which there are too many options. He works with an amazing group of subcontractors who are experts in their craft. There was an exception with one subcontractor but Max was able to get that course-corrected so that the project finished strong. We appreciate his integrity and his willingness to ensure that the project meets your needs and expectations. We are grateful that we found Max on Yelp and for being able to work with him on a kitchen that we love and also within budget!! Thank you, Max and MRI Construction!!

    I had MRI Construction remodel a kitchen and bathroom in a Condo that I own. I also needed to…read morereplace the front door, which was a complex job due to metal frame and fire resistant door. The kitchen was a complete replacement of floor, cabinets, counter, fluorescent light panel (to LEDs), and sink. In the bathroom we replaced everything but the floor tile. Max was able to provide a reasonable estimate for the project and start the project on a timeline that worked for me. This job was also complex because I don't live in the area and could only be there occasionally to review the work. MRI construction was helpful and communicative throughout the process, making sure that all of the tile, finishes, and accessories were ready to go. Ultimately the job was finished on budget and a week EARLY. I would definitely recommend Max and MRI for their honesty, quality of work, cost of work, and ability to do difficult jobs. It's not easy to find a great contractor and Max is definitely on that list!

Once you're inside however, it can feel like you're away from the traffic and it gives off a very calming atmosphere. All the items are neatly and particularly placed. The store carries a variety of home products to self-care goods. Since it's a novelty store, you can expect that some of these items are not "budget-friendly." With that being said, you can tell that all of the items are of immense quality. They carry some noteworthy brands like Aesop and Kinto. If you're choosing to make a purchase just based on quality, you've made a great investment. I had a chance to speak to Arianne and she was well-informed about the products. I wasn't prepared to make a moderate purchase upon first visit, but I am keen on coming back! I only purchased their lip balm and it's currently my favorite product to use. If you're ever in the Long Beach area, I recommend paying this store a visit!

Here you will find lots of very high quality decor for your home, office, bedroom or a gift for your minimalist friends. There are ceramic bowls for your Palo Santo or White sage, which they also carry here, and large pots and tableware items. All of their scented items like incense, soaps, oil diffusers, candles, room sprays are all unique, irresistible, and sophisticated-smelling. They will definitely set the ambience in your room to new levels. There are some unique items here that I don't really want to share with the internet just yet. Lol. You're just gonna have to go in and find out for yourself. Welcome to Long Beach, Kuarto, and can't wait to see what else is in store.

All very professional and took the time to discuss all our needs and wants in detail. 2023 - Full kitchen remodel including new layout. We knocked down a wall to help create a more open feel and blocked off a door to the exterior to add additional cabinetry. Paint throughout the house, updated electrical, recessed lighting, hardwood floors, cabinetry in the kitchen and dining room, new front door. It felt like a completely new home and with a thoughtful design for our small kitchen. 2024 - New roof. Mixture of tiles, flat roof and shingles. It was over and done with quickly and looked great! Both jobs were done in a timely manner but not rushed. We felt the quality was excellent. The couple miscommunications we did have were very minor and resolved very quickly by reviewing our text/email communications as well as working together to see what path we could take at that point. We did shop around some but I did a decent amount of research first. Our big project was between 2 or 3 companies and I recall 1 flaking and the other wasn't up to par. HomeRenew360 hit it out of the park and although they may have been a tad higher in price...we are so happy with the quality, time it took, staff service and more.
