He added a…read moreprimary suite with full bath, expanded a living room, expanded our kitchen with full remodel (new cabinets and skylights), added a patio, put in new floors throughout the interior, put in new HVAC, and painted all the interior and exterior. All told, there was an additional 600 sq ft added to our home. Mark was timely with estimates and priced fairly. His crew worked hard and interacted with our family respectfully. He recommended excellent vendors. His subcontractors were extremely professional and timely as well. Whenever we hit a surprise (there weren't many, which is saying something given the size of the job), Mark handled it calmly and confidently. He has continued to be responsive even after completing the job. He has an eye for architectural details and made helpful recommendations to our design. Remodeling a home requires hundreds of decisions and he navigated us through them, never overloading us, but pacing them out and keeping us on a reasonable schedule. He showed his project managing skills both with how he organized his subs and with how he kept us on task. His direct and honest communication impressed us greatly. We have recommended Mark to several friends and will continue to do so.

Mark did a fantastic job on our bathroom and was an absolute joy to work with. Having Mark do our…read morebathroom made us realize that we had never truly worked with a real general contractor in the past -- and we've done quite a few large projects. All of his sub contractors were absolute professionals and masters in their trades. I can't think of any unexpected change orders and he came up with a ton of great design calls along the way. The project was done faster than expected as well, which is pretty much non existent in this industry.

We worked with Jacob's company, S&L Remodeling in Walnut Creek, and from the very beginning his…read moreentire team made us feel like our project truly mattered. Even though this wasn't the largest remodel for their company, they treated us as if it were a million‑dollar renovation -- with care, respect, and exceptional attention to detail. Jacob was an outstanding owner to work with. He approved everything quickly, stayed flexible, and worked with us on a payment schedule that made the process smooth and stress‑free. His communication was clear, and he made sure we always felt supported throughout the remodel. From the project manager to the foreman, to the crew and subcontractors, everyone showed up ready to deliver. Jacob's team moved fast -- gutting the kitchen, updating the wiring, and completing an impressive amount of work within the first four days. The craftsmanship was excellent, and the workflow was organized and efficient. Jacob was involved with our supplier who handled all the materials, including our new cabinets and kitchen counters. They kept everything on schedule and made the selection process easy. There was no constant back‑and‑forth, no need for us to oversee every detail. The team stayed on top of the project from beginning to end, keeping the schedule tight and the quality consistently high. Even with the limited funds we had to work with, they transformed our old, dark kitchen into a bright, modern, beautifully updated space that is completely new. The results exceeded our expectations. We're truly grateful for the professionalism, consistency, and quality of work from S&L Remodeling. Jacob's leadership and his team's dedication made the entire experience exceptional. Highly recommend.

They were incredible collaborators, especially since this is the only bathroom in my 1948 home--they made sure the process was actually livable.

I'm obsessed with the new look (especially the floating oak vanity and terrazzo tiles!) and the pricing was exactly as promised.

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.

We changed our minds on a couple of things mid-build, something that can easily throw off a project, and RWB made those adjustments with minimal disruption to the schedule or budget. That kind of flexibility is hard to find. On a project this size, a few things came up along the way, and when they did, RWB was upfront about what was happening and worked to minimize the cost impact while keeping things as close to the original timeline as possible. Communication was excellent throughout. They're consistently transparent and proactive, and they follow up on anything that needs attention without you having to chase them down. What sets them apart is that they're genuinely invested in the outcome. They stand behind their work with a warranty, and it shows in how they operate. At this point we see RWB as a long-term partner. We have more work we want to do on our existing home and they'll be our first call every time. Highly recommend for anyone looking at a significant construction project.

I've stumbled on a fabulous contractor!…read more Our home is 8 years old, and we shouldn't have had the water leakage we had. The shower in the second bath had been leaking, causing extensive damage. We had to completely replace the bathroom due to water infiltration, as well as some sheetrock in the dining room and the second bedroom. When I was in my 20s, I would have repaired myself, but now I'm in a wheelchair and decisively, not 20!! I was referred to a contractor from Concord named Yaniv Taragano, of Taragano Design and Build, and that was the best referral ever! We also had other projects in mind: replace the kitchen sink with a copper one, replace the under-cabinet lights, install two ceiling fans, add "can lights" to the main bedroom, add a pot-filler, replace the bathtub, add a door to the laundry room, and re-paint the interior. Yaniv saved us a bunch of money throughout the project. For instance, he color-matched the wall paint exactly, so only a touch-up was necessary to achieve beautiful walls! He's bonded and insured, and most importantly, he and his people are very careful. I also checked out his license, and there was not a single blemish. He was very timely, and he or his foreman came every day on time. His workers were very cognizant that we still lived in the house and carefully cleaned up every day. If you need, call Yaniv Taragano at (925) 388-6365, or visit his website: https://www.taraganoremodeling.com/ On top of everything else, he and his lovely wife Katie are just genuinely nice people!

One thing in particular that really stood out about Yaniv was that he truly helped us through the remodel. We had never done a project like this and he was one of the few people we spoke with who met us at our level even though he lived and breathed it daily. This attention to our needs was present from our first conversations, during the construction as decisions needed to be made, and at the very end when signing off on the work. I recommend Yaniv and his team to anyone looking for a partner in for their remodeling project.

Her tenants let us know there was kitchen floor damage, the result of water leaking out of a washing machine over a period of possibly several months. The damage was real and there was time pressure to get everything handled quickly -- young children in the house, Christmas approaching, etc. I volunteered to help get this organized for my wife. I found Richmond Tile Solutions on Yelp -- they get great reviews -- and I contacted Lulu right away (and a few others). We were impressed from the start with Lulu's diligence. She went right over to the house, took measurements, gave us several options, picked out the flooring -- and then got it all installed. Every step of the way, she was great with the tenant -- and great with us. Most of our conversations took place over WhatsApp, so we could "see" via video conferencing, Lulu, the floor, the cabinets where the washer/dryer would go, etc. There were a lot of moving pieces: moving a washer and dryer out, and then back in; working with another contractor to get the floor dried out; choosing the flooring material; installing a pan beneath the washer so if this happens again, the water will drain to outside the house; getting the new flooring installed; reconnecting the water, electricity, gas and ventilation; putting the cabinets back in place; etc. We haven't yet seen the actual work, performed by Heber (Lulu's partner) and his team, but the tenants say everything looks great, so that makes us happy. I'm sure we will love it when we see it. We completely trust Lulu and if she says everything is good, we believe her. THANK YOU, Lulu and Heber. And THANK YOU, Yelp. It's amazing what you can get done online these days.
