You know that sinking feeling, "I wish I knew a contractor I could trust...". Very common for first time homeowners, or someone -- like me -- with an old house. Eli Israel and Integrity Remodeling is that contractor. I have had the good fortune of working with Eli and his team on two projects over the last 10 years. One was a major remodel/addition, the second project most recently was a minor project that was very impactful to my home and family. Both projects were completed to my 100% satisfaction. The cost and scope of the project was clearly outlined at the outset, there was open communication throughout the project and the everything was finished on time and on budget. Just as importantly, Eli and his team are clean courteous and professional. My family and I lived through the remodel/addition and at the end of the day the house/job site was left in a clean condition, and Eli's team were always on time and professional. I'm telling you - call Eli and the Integrity Remodeling team. You will be writing reviews like this for the next 10 years. They are that good. read more

Rosenberg was the perfect professional for all of the house projects I signed up with him. His entire team is highly skilled and detail-oriented and the remodeling projects are done to perfection. THANK YOU, Rosemberg and team. Keep up the great work. read more

We recently finished a complete, 10 month long home renovation with Integrity and I'm happy to say that all of these five star reviews you're reading are true. Starting a project like this is scary - we knew it would be expensive and time consuming and stressful. We had heard lots of horror stories of contractors over promising and under delivering around the Bay. Eli was recommended to us by our architect, and we ultimately interviewed a few different contractors before making the decision. From the beginning, Eli was different. The bid he submitted was by far the most complete and, although it took several weeks to complete, I appreciated that he called multiple times with follow up questions. It was clear to me that he wanted to get the bid right and took that responsibility seriously. Integrity is not the least expensive option but they are fair, they do outstanding work, they never cut corners, and we loved working with Eli, Susan, Sebastian and their team. Our project was completed on time and on budget. I especially appreciated Eli's eye for design and his ability to creatively problem solve the various challenges that came up. We talked through everything at each step along the way, the communication was excellent and he took time to answer all my many questions. I even appreciated the way they communicated bad news which did happen from time to time. They are honest and nice to deal with (even when I wasn't) and they work really hard to get things right. Another thing I want to mention was the the positive culture of respect for people that Eli created on our job site. I really liked the way he treated his employees, sub contractors and tradesman that worked on our project everyday - it was hard and often thankless work and Eli was always making sure people felt appreciated and valued. It was clear he had earned their respect and they enjoyed working together. The most important thing to us during a project like this was trust. There are so many decisions that need to be made, so many unanticipated issue that come up, and so many problems to solve that you really need to a partner who you can work with and who you know has your best interests at heart. Towards the end of our project, I frequently found myself telling Eli "I trust you - just do whatever you would in your own house". And our home speaks for itself - it came out beautifully. read more

We worked with Eli to do a major kitchen and bath remodel. This was much more than a kitchen refacing and more of a complete tear-down and rebuild of half a floor in our house. From the start, Eli gave us a very clear and professional bid. This made it easy for us to digest the project and begin the process of this huge undertaking. We did get several bids and Eli's was in line with the other bids we received. However, from the start, Eli was the most professional and prompt to have these initial (and daunting) conversations with. The project itself went very smoothly. As mentioned, it was a major kitchen + bath overhaul, and during this we lived in the house with 2 small children (a toddler and a 4 year old). It absolutely was NOT the traumatic "living with construction" experience that other people seem to have. We were excited to come home each day to see how the project was progressing. Along with the bid, Eli gave a very detailed and clear timeline. This also made living in the house very manageable and also gave us an excellent roadmap of what to expect. The project finished more or less on time and within the expected budget. Eli's guys showed up on time every day when they said they would. Also, Eli was very much available throughout the project and was NEVER hard to get a hold of. Eli also steered us the in the right direction in terms of the best vendors to work with. In terms of finish work, it is absolutely gorgeous! Eli and his team have a great attention to detail and ensure that the final product will be nothing other than a dream to live with. We have been beyond thrilled to have our kitchen. We have more work still to do on our house and hope we get the to have the privilege of Eli working on it again! We are looking forward to the next round. read more

See all

I'd done 2 large remodels with other builders before meeting Eli at Integrity Remodeling. The first was from a low bidder. The work was not done on time, nor on budget and there was little attention to detail. The second was literally the highest bidder - a design-build firm with a lot of cache' - and, thankfully, it was on budget and on time... but the service was perfunctory. Several mistakes were made and once, only after trying to convince me "I wouldn't notice it eventually", did they deign to fix it. The process was ok. The end result was nice but frankly not special. We met Eli in time to do our third and biggest project. He came so highly recommended we were almost suspicious. After talking with him (very easy) and getting his bid (not the highest, not the lowest) we felt comfortable hiring him. But we had no idea how good we'd have it. The basics (time, budget, quality of work) were preposterously smooth. It was when things were hard that he impressed even more. Once he made a mistake but owned it and compensated us so well we felt we got the the better end of the deal. Twice WE made mistakes (with an order and a sub of ours) and he generously gave his time to help us solve the issues. Not his responsibility, but he "wanted us to be happy." He frequently says that - and actually means it. Also, more than a few times, the process was stressful - which by nature it is (especially with a pregnant client) - and he handled our anxiety quite honestly like a professional psychologist. Always calm, listening. Putting us at ease. That might be the rarest quality of all. Really, we can't say enough. We highly recommend him, and have done so to many. read more

We used them to replace a metal roof on a barn extension and gave them the tough task of matching a 50 year old roof on the main barn. They did a fantastic job matching the old roof pretty darn close and it looks great. They stayed in touch with schedule updates based upon the weather and completed the job on budget and on time. read more

Integrity Remodeling just finished a large addition and renovation project on our Craftsman bungalow. We interviewed a handful of general contractors as it was of utmost importance that we worked with the right crew for such a sensitive project. We didn't want a bunch of "strangers" traipsing through our home at all hours of the day. Ultimately we chose Integrity Remodeling as our gut instinct told us this was the right crew for the job. Not only were all of our initial dealings fair and honest, but they had amazing references and we loved the fact that they were local. Eli Israel was great to deal with. He took ample time to explain the whole process and what to expect so we felt comfortable with such a painstakingly large investment. He was intimately involved with the project from beginning to end and made sure that we stayed within our very tight budget. When budget issues did arise, he offered creative solutions to accomplish what we wanted without jeopardizing our design or breaking the bank. His crew was gracious and friendly, they were on time, clean, and always available and willing to help with anything...even moving our furniture or helping us unload our car! Integrity Remodeling completed our project on time, on budget and I never felt like they "disappeared" (which is a common fear). They made sure every last detail was accounted for. I would highly recommend Integrity Remodeling for any building project. read more

I never thought I would rave about a general contractor. We just finished a large remodel of our home in Piedmont, and I couldn't be more pleased. Eli himself is a joy--respectful, honest, smart and super responsive. He knows his stuff, and he truly just wants his clients to be happy and takes incredible pride in his work. He picks his workers and subs very carefully and has deep long standing relationships with them. The work product is outstanding, they like working for and with him, and everyone benefits. Our foreman, Sebastian, was so skilled and a truly great guy. I could go on and on but really can sum it up by saying I would absolutely recommend Integrity to my closest friends and family with no reservations at all! We love our house now, thanks to Eli! Only thing to note is that he is a busy guy and getting busier (the secret about him is getting out). But he is worth the wait, at least he certainly was for us. When we were soliciting bids/picking contractors, I had to wait a bit to get responses from Eli. I was nervous that maybe he wasn't as responsive as I might need. But now that I was a client I realize it is because he is so busy putting clients first. Once I became a client, he was amazingly responsive-- texting or calling or emailing right away. My husband laughs that Eli knew how to communicate with me better than pretty much anyone else he'd ever met. Remodeling is stressful and I was ready to throttle my architect-- but somehow came out of our project treasuring our contractor. So thankful to have made the right choice with him! read more

Integrity Remodeling is simply GREAT! They took on a large remodel for us, which only grew in scope (mostly due to decisions we made, somewhat due to things that came up along the way). We felt we were in "safe hands" through the entire process. Eli was very good at communicating scenarios, tradeoffs, recommendations, and the corresponding costs associated with decisions. Natalie was on top of every detail and helped us evaluate all sorts of decisions along the way. It was a huge project and we are so glad we chose Eli, Natalie and their entire team of high quality subs. Our home is a dream to live in and we continuously feel grateful that we worked with the Integrity Remodeling team to make it so. read more

Eli and Integrity Remodeling were highly recommended to us by multiple friends, including our neighbors. Our project was substantial and it was really important to us to maintain the architectural integrity of our 1910 dutch colonial, inside and out. Our renovation included a new foundation, garage, rumpus room, kitchen, bathrooms, laundry and deck. Coming from an architecture/design background, working with Eli, Natalie and team (including subs) was one of the easiest projects I've ever done. They are so organized and detailed. They are always one step ahead. Everyone was extremely professional and easy to work with - they felt like family. Eli was always available, transparent with costs, and flexible with changes. Natalie is amazing, detailed, creative and so helpful with the all the little details. Their carpentry is top notch. They were able to maintain the continuity of the interior and exterior by matching all the new carpentry and mill work details to the original. They built custom window/door/baseboard trim, closets, stair rails and details to make our house look like it was always meant to be this way. We could not be happier with the finished project and the quality of work. If we ever move, I will ask Eli to remodel that one too! read more

We were incredibly pleased with Integrity Remodeling for our major remodel in Piedmont CA. The work was high quality, subcontractors were well organized, financials were transparent and Eli and his team are consummate professionals. Our projet entailed a lot of coordination, several permits and had its fair share of forks in the road, but they handled it very well. We give an unwavering recommendation for anyone considering working with them. read more

Eli, Natalie and the whole IRC crew were wonderful - responsive, responsible, caring, professional and did beautiful work. Every step of the way they offered guidance and great advice if we needed it (we always needed it!) and were patient with us when we made last minute changes to our designs ("You want to use that unexpected space under the eves for a secret bookcase-door-reading nook? Cool! Let's draw some ideas!") They were incredibly communicative during all the upheaval of the pandemic and managed to get us back in our house only two months after our original plan, which was a pretty amazing feat given the pandemic shut down and ensuing months-long slowdown due to safety protocols. We would absolutely recommend this team to anyone looking to do a high-quality remodel. read more

We purchased a 100+ year old fixer home in Berkeley that had not been updated in decades. It was a full down-to-studs, gut renovation - new floors, walls, shingles, roof, bathrooms, kitchen and removing walls. Since we were new to houses and remodeling, we wanted a builder who was an expert in gut renovations, and would be patient enough to teach us what we needed to make the right decisions, would move quickly, exhibited excellent craftsmanship and most importantly, could handle whatever came his way calmly and professionally. After meeting quite a few builders, we immediately liked Eli's attention to detail and process, accessibility and no-drama approach. He put 3x the work into his estimates as any other builder, to make sure we understood how much things cost, and also negotiated with subs on our behalf to drive down some of the largest line items. When I interviewed his references, I was surprised to hear every one of them say, "We LOVE Eli!" Who "loves" their builder? Well, about 2 months into our project, I got it. Unlike other builders who just want to build what was laid out and penalize you for details that weren't fleshed out or changed slightly, Eli takes your design as an intention. When he sees things that you or your architect missed or doesn't make sense with other things you've articulated, he calls it out and helps you make the right choice. Almost all of his subs were very knowledgeable and helped us navigate the worlds of lighting, cabinetry, heating, shingles, etc. with patience and skill. When renovating, your builder can feel like your best friend...or worst enemy! In our case, a few things really stuck with us from our experience with Eli and his team. When things got bumpy a few times, Eli said, "I've got your back." And he really did. He and his team went to bat for us with subs, inspectors, making sure quirky issues got fixed, etc. Looking back on the other stresses in our year, it's amazing that our builder was the one person we did NOT have to worry about - his team got things done and done right. We were also struck by how courteous he is to his team (and vice versa) - there was a strong culture of treating each other and the client with respect. For us, this meant everyone was very good at their jobs because Eli retains his highly skilled talent and partners, and they were easy to work with. Finally, his meticulous record keeping, photos, invoices, Dropbox files, etc., mean that my accountant and I will be very happy come sale or tax time. In the end, we finished *mostly* on budget - we expanded the scope as we discovered unknown damage, but all of the known items finished on budget. In terms of time, Eli finished 2 months AHEAD of his original projection because we needed the house back sooner than expected. He and his team hustled with enthusiasm and without cutting corners, to ensure it was move-in ready for the new date. Our end product is...gorgeous. We love waking up in the house, preparing meals in the kitchen, lounging on our new deck, taking relaxing showers in our sleek bathrooms, watching movies in our cozy living room, controlling the lights/temperature/cameras from our phone, and just experiencing every day here. We can't recommend Eli and his team enough! read more

We initially chose another contractor for a major remodel of our newly purchased home because of cost, but soon regretted this decision. Eli agreed to take over the project and fortunately, since it was still in the early stages, the transition wasn't too difficult. I should say that I have managed several large commercial construction projects but was still surprised by how all-consuming this house remodel was. I was VERY thankful to have Eli and Integrity Remodeling doing the work. I know they saved me from many sleepless nights and a lot of stress. They made the process as enjoyable as it possibly could have been. There are several things that made working with Integrity Remodeling a great experience: 1. Eli and his crews are very honest. They will tell you right away if there is a problem and I never worried that they were trying to slip anything by us. They have...INTEGRITY! 2. Eli really cares about how the project turns out. He (and his guys) have excellent ideas and solutions to the inevitable problems that come up along the way. I remember on at least one occasion Eli was up late trying to solve a problem for how to put together a certain trim detail we wanted for the front columns of our house. Eli takes pride in what he does and works hard to make things turn out well. 3. I think that one testament to a good general contractor is the quality and loyalty of their subcontractors. Eli has excellent subs, most of whom he has worked with for many years. The subs were a joy to work with and the mood around the site was always upbeat and happy. 4. Eli's prices are fair. I felt we received very good value from working with Eli. The scope of our project essentially doubled from what we initially planned to do, but this was our decision and it just made sense. We essentially rebuilt our entire home. So of course along the way this necessitated many change orders. We never felt taken advantage of and felt like the change orders were fair. 5. In the interest of honesty, there were a few issues that came up but this is to be expected with a project of this size and complexity. Eli and his subs worked hard to make things right and we were always able to resolve our differences. 6. Great communication. Eli was always available to talk thru any issues or to meet on site to answer any questions or work on problems or brainstorm ideas. 7. The quality of the work was excellent. When we sit in our home now we look around and everything is beautiful. There was an attention to detail that really shows. And we have confidence that the underlying structure was built properly. Eli is a stickler when it comes to waterproofing, and leaks are one of the things that can make a homeowner's life miserable. We could not be more pleased with how our home has turned out. It is a dream to live in and we are thrilled to wake up here each morning. Thank you Eli and Integrity Remodeling! read more

Eli Israel of Integrity Remodel is great! His crew is friendly, respectful, and tidy and Eli himself is a joy to work with. The project came out under budget and on time and looks truly awesome. He is possibly, the last honest contractor out there! read more

We just finished a significant project with Integrity which included gutting the first floor of the house and completely redoing our kitchen and two bathrooms (along with a bunch of other work). Eli and his entire crew were a pleasure to work with and the finished work is excellent. We can't be happier with how it turned out. We initially went with Integrity because we could tell that Eli is a fantastic communicator and this proved true throughout the project. When issues came up (as they inevitably do when remodeling a century-old house) he was always great about explaining the situation and brainstorming multiple solutions. In a number of cases he was actually able to save us money, for example by working with the structural engineer to find a simpler way of framing the large openings we added. I also have to say that we are not easy clients--we're both designers and we cared/agonized about all the details down to the shower drain and door hinges. Eli was exceptionally patient throughout and helped us make those decisions when we got stuck. I recommend Eli and Integrity without hesitation. read more

Eli Israel is everything that contractor a should be: perfectionist, dependable, thorough, honest and on-time. Though our project went very smoothly, when inevitable issues did arise, Eli was an incredible problem solver; collaborative and resourceful. His list of go-to-resources for everything from metal fabrication, custom cabinets or appliance sales is the absolute best, and a real testament to the goodwill that he builds with every contact. One of Eli's greatest gift as a contractor is his ability to communicate. We ended almost every Friday of our remodeling months with a detailed email from him recapping what was done that week, and what he has planned for the coming week. This helped set expectations, made us make necessary decisions, and gave us the weekend to prepare for things that were potentially disruptive (because we lived in the house throughout our project). And almost every morning, at 8:00 a.m., there was Eli, checking on progress, discussing what will happen that day, talking me through options. He checks his email, responds to texts and calls you back. Sounds simple and like a given, but really when your life is in such a state of disarray, that connection can really anchor you and your sense of well-being. Also, his foremen are amazing; super careful and gifted carpenters. Perfectionists as well They spend so much time in your house that you have to like them, and these guys are nothing if not likeable. And most importantly, everything looks better than we imagined. The job is done, and we are 100% happy. read more

Relaying my experience from the other end of the spectrum that most homeowners wouldn't be aware of, as a subcontractor having worked with Eli, I can vouch for him. He's very fair, professional and his concern for his clients satisfaction is apparent. We shingled a house for him on a whole-house Rockridge remodel and everything went very well - he trusts and supports his subs and those are the builders we love working for. We have a couple upcoming projects with him and we're looking forward to them! read more

My husband and I were very hesitant to go into a remodel project. We had put it off for years. All I'd ever heard about remodels is that they are a total nightmare. Well, our remodel is over and I have to say, I kind of miss it. It was a fabulous experience and I believe it was because of Eli and his team at Integrity Remodeling. Our entire home was gutted down to the studs and rebuilt. A big project. From the initial bid, and continuing every step along the way, everything was incredibly detailed, transparent, and informative. We also had a clear timeline and we finished exactly when projected. Eli is a very good communicator and was always available to us. We could talk, email, or text whenever needed. It made us feel as if we were his only client, his number one client, for the entire duration of the project. There are a million and one decisions that need to be made along the way with a project this size and we always felt that Eli was giving us all the information, different options, and opinions we needed to make the best decisions. We felt as though Eli's attention to detail and care in all his work was done as if our home was his home. There are also some more technical hurdles along the way in a home remodel, permits and inspections and such, with which Eli has a tremendous amount of experience, they were handled with expertise. We would highly recommend Integrity Remodeling without reservation. We are in love with our new home. read more

Eli and his crew did a small job for us a few months ago and we could not be happier with the work they did. The project was the refacing and tiling of a craftsman style fireplace. He has the nicest and most talented crew, and Eli himself is always available when needed. The quality of their work was a real surprise compared to any other contractor I've ever worked with, even though there were some unexpected issues with the project and some changes that needed to be made. read more

I second that review! Eli Israel of Integrity Remodeling is terrific! We keep telling our friends we feel like we hit the "contractor lottery" -- he completely rebuilt and expanded our Rockridge home, and delivered it under budget and earlier than expected!! Beyond that, he is fun to work and collaborate with, his crew is delightful, and they were incredibly respectful of our neighbors (including a *very* difficult neighbor). We HIGHLY recommend Integrity Remodeling. Oh, and did I mention their work is BEAUTIFUL too. read more

I've worked with and recommended Integrity Remodeling to clients over the last 4 years and can't say enough about the positive experiences. They will provide top value with excellent quality workmanship, responsiveness, professionalism, and, as the name states, integrity. Just read the reviews and see for yourself. The only hesitancy I have in recommending them is that I want to save them for just my clients and friends!!! Truly the only people I know with regrets are the ones that didn't select to work with them. read more

We can't say enough good stuff about Eli and his crew. Our project was a second story master suite/master BA/master closet addition to our 1912 Craftsman Bungalow-style home. Eli and his crew were amazing to work with, did beautiful work, came in on budget and on time! We are so fortunate to have found Eli, and have recommended him to everyone we know who might be considering a remodel. read more

Eli Israel and the Integrity Remodeling crew are fantastic! We remodeled our kitchen and family room and couldn't be happier with the results. The project was on time, on budget and Eli's commitment to quality work was evident from the beginning. My wife and I immediately fell into a happy stride, comfortably sharing any concerns, questions or ideas because we knew we would be heard by a sympathetic, professional and creative ear. There are so many decisions that arise during this type of project and Eli was always there with great ideas and advice. He was also worked very well with our architect, suppliers we sourced and his own subs were great. My wife, three kids and I lived in our house during the remodel. Eli & crew helped us set up a temporary kitchen and laundry and worked around our schedule. He has remained available and responsive after the project with any final issues. Eli knows how to get in touch with me and I'd be happy to talk to anyone interested in working with him. read more

We couldn't be more happy with our new kitchen! Eli, Susan, Sebastian and the rest of the team were also really great. We were anxious to have a good contractor for this project as we knew it would be long and expensive. The kitchen was gutted down to the studs and had structural, plumbing and electrical updating. While this was the highest quote, the pricing is really transparent and there were never surprises. Eli was great about explaining every cost associated. He was flexible with last minute changes and surprises that we found along the way. The crew were very conscientious about cleaning up and unlike past projects we've done with other contractors, they were there every day. This remodel could have dragged on for months but Eli and Susan run a very tight ship! Communication was easy and the schedule was tightly maintained. When the job was finished there weren't any odd unfinished things or messes and the rest of our house was left in good shape. I can not recommend them enough. read more

See all

Eli and his crew are true professionals. It is such a pleasure to join his remodeling team. As a cabinetmaker I deal with contractors everyday. Eli's clients really sing his praises and it is easy to see why. His projects are top notch and completed in a timely manner. He really knows how to manage a project. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone. I expect to work with him again and again. read more

I've worked on three big remodeling projects with Eli Israel of Integrity remodeling. His work is excellent - timely, on budget, top level craftsmanship. He's got great taste, a really good crew, and lots of experience. You can't go wrong - he's full price, but more than full value! pdraker@aol.com read more

We worked with Integrity Remodeling to completely remodel our house, including moving a kitchen, removing a wall to create a great room, adding a bathroom, and remodeling 2 existing bathrooms. Eli and his team were fantastic to work with through every stage of construction. His bidding was very detailed and was always upfront about cost and extras. Eli was also a great thought partner throughout the project, with good advice about all the millions decisions that come up, large and small. Eli's team and subcontractors were all amazing to work with and all produced beautiful, high-quality work. I would recommend Integrity Remodeling to anyone without reservation, we are thrilled with the results. read more

If you are scrolling through this page, you have likely got a renovation in your future, and you are looking for a contractor. When I was referred to Eli (the sole proprietor of Integrity Remodeling) by our architect, I (like you) went straight to Yelp and read up on his reviews. For all you Yelpers out there, you know that every now and then, you will find something truly special via Yelp...usually the signs are 5 stars, more than 20 reviews, and several years of history. Eli has all these things and more, so, congratulations, you've found a keeper! We went through a complete home renovation with Eli from 2015 through 2016. Our project involved digging out and installing a completely new finished basement, moving all the staircases on our 3 storey home, doing a complete seismic retrofit, putting in a new foundation, adding an 18' bifold accordion door (love you, NanaWall!), and stripping the entire house down to the studs with new electrical/heating/plumbing/internet. We redid the kitchen, 5 bathrooms, laundry, fireplaces, and roofdecks. You get the picture...very little of the original house remained, except the stucco on the outside. From the start, Eli was the consummate professional. His bid was detailed, his timeline was specific, and his coordination with the city was flawless. To give you an idea, his projected final inspection date was off by just 1 week...and he set out that timeline 14 months prior! It's like when Waze projects your arrival time from SF to Buenos Aires to within an hour. Uncanny. Another huge plus to Eli is his skill in helping us solve design problems. For reasons of cost, we were unable to involve our architect after the final plans were submitted, so many of the details (box beams, built in cabinetry, trims, crown moulding, baseboard, etc) were left up to us. Eli was patient, and supportive, and helped my wife and I to navigate through these decisions one by one. At some points, during the occasional spousal disagreement, he even served as makeshift (and very effective) marriage counselor! But a contractor is only as good as his crew, so let's dive a bit deeper. Eli's guys (Sebastian, Carlos, Jesus, and Romeo) were an exceptional crew. Sebastian and Carlos were both master carpenters, essentially reframing our house in a matter of weeks. Their rough carpentry was solid, with minimal wastage, and every time I go up the stairs and hear silence, I appreciate the accuracy of their joinery. Their finish carpentry was clean and straight, no dents in the wood trim or bent nails here. They also had a knack for coming up with solutions to the myriad problems that crop up during a project like this. Most of the time, when a problem popped up, they had already worked out 3 possible solutions, and I just had to choose what I liked best. By the end of the project, they had such an understanding of our preferences that I rarely disagreed with their suggestions. By this point, these guys were part of the family...I had no qualms about leaving my kids alone to watch them work. Like his crew, Eli's subcontractors were all outstanding. He has clearly developed a long-term relationship with some exceptional craftsmen, all of whom were reasonably priced, respectful, and did outstanding work. In our project, to save money, I did some parts of the work myself, and took care of ordering almost all the finishes, tile, flooring, appliances, etc. I also had my own subcontractors for aspects of the project, such as radiant heating. Eli coordinated well with me and my subs, and never condescended to me despite a few screw-ups on my part. On a personal note, Eli is affable and available. He only takes on a couple of projects at a time so that he never has to compromise his standards. Honestly, this is a guy who could easily grow his company into a major outfit with multiple crews and a dozen simultaneous projects. His attention to detail and desire for personal involvement, however, would never permit that. He was always reachable by phone, and never hesitated to stop by for anything more than the most perfunctory discussions. He is a good human being, appreciates the value of honest work, and is a devoted family man. When choosing a contractor, he was the only one who sailed right through the "beer test," i.e., would I want to have a beer with this guy? I can't overstress how important that was, given that on most days I spent more time talking to him than to my own family. So, all in all, I cannot speak highly enough about Eli. We did an enormous project, were on time and on budget, and we are still on good terms with Eli. My only regret is not writing this review sooner. So, go ahead. Get that bid. Sign that contract. You will not be disappointed. read more

We did a major remodel with Integrity Remodeling which included a 1,000 sq ft addition to a steep hillside, a gut job to the tri-level existing space, new bathrooms, and a new kitchen. They finished the project on time and within the projected budget. The guys were easy to work with and trustworthy. Eli is a great communicator, very responsive and thorough. I highly recommend working him. We are very happy with the end result. read more

I've worked with Integrity Remodeling countless of times over the years and recommended them to clients with home construction needs. As a realtor, I often have clients who wish to remodel before they sell or right after they buy, so I am consistently needing home building services for a wide array of projects. The fact that I always recommend Integrity Remodeling first is a huge testament to their work, because how they perform absolutely impacts my own client relationships and my credibility. I have nothing but positive experiences working with Eli and his crew---they are completely fair, provide excellent craftsmanship, are a fantastic crew to work with and are hugely communicative about the process and the progress. It's so difficult to find a contractor who stays in communication and when they do, actually DOES what they say they will! Since I have found Integrity Remodeling I am beyond satisfied and the only reason I have other crews in my rolodex is because Eli is consistently busy!!! read more

Eli and his crew were fantastic. They helped us about a year ago with a major remodel to our house (adding a new bedroom and bathroom and building a new garage). From a homeowner's perspective, Eli does everything right. He shows up when he says he is going to, he leaves the worksite as neat as possible everyday, and he finishes on-time and on-budget. The best way to describe the quality is to relay a comment from a friend who came over after Eli finished. Our friend said he couldn't tell where the new construction started. (Eli did *THAT* good a job of fitting our existing house's style.) I recommend him with the highest praise. read more

We can't say enough good stuff about Eli and his crew. Our project was a second story master suite/master BA/master closet addition to our 1912 Craftsman Bungalow-style home. Eli and his crew were amazing to work with, did beautiful work, came in on budget and on time! We are so fortunate to have found Eli, and have recommended him to everyone we know who might be considering a remodel. read more
