Eduardo has done two projects on my house in SF and I've been very happy with the results…read more The first was a laundry room where he had to move the plumbing, electrical, and gas lines as well as finish the flooring. He expertly walked me through the permitting process, which can be difficult in the city, and worked with me through all the details. He was recommended to me by a friend and I would gladly recommend him again. We also did a mold remediation and closet rebuild, this was incredibly time sensitive and somewhat difficult because I am the landlord and had to work with my tenants to make sure they were ok with the process as it was happening. He helped talk both me and my tenants through what the process would be like, making sure that there were plastic walls to protect us from the mold as the job was being done, and beautifully completed the project within a very tight timeframe at the last minute. Very grateful for his expertise and his concern for my tenant's well being. I actually have another project that I'm planning to reach out to Eduardo for in the future!

I highly recommend Gnetzer for any construction project, large or small. It has been a pleasure…read moreworking with him on my ADU project in San Francisco. He demonstrated a strong sense of responsibility and ownership throughout the entire process, was very communicative, and made what could have been a stressful experience much smoother. Gnetzer worked diligently with multiple city departments, attended all inspections personally, and even went to the building department himself to resolve issues when needed. He was also very considerate of my tenants, coordinating work schedules to minimize noise and disruption. He consistently shopped around for competitively priced materials, saving me tens of thousands of dollars, and handled additional city requirements and revisions at reasonable costs.

This review is long overdue. Michael and his team, including Max and Alberto and the rest of the…read morecrew, were wonderful and easy to work with. We first hired Artifex for our home renovation which included new kitchen, two new baths, new windows and sliders, refinishing existing hardwood floors, insulation throughout, new electrical, and interior and exterior paint. We even removed a wall and installed new support beams. The work was completed in 4 months and that included a pandemic related delay. The entire team is highly skilled and professional. They offer smart suggestions and good alternatives. And I can't say enough about the quality of their finish work - tile and carpentry. We hired Artifex again for our deck and railing replacement project and experienced the same level of professionalism. We would definitely hire them again for any future projects....That is, if they can fit us in :-)

We hired Mike and his team to completely gut and redo our kitchen, master bath, and master bedroom…read more In addition, we asked for a face lift on the guest bath and new hardwoods throughout the house. There literally wasn't a room in the house that we didn't touch. We originally got 4 quotes on the job and Mike's quote was in the middle range but it was the most complete quote, and he also spent a lot of time even before we signed the contract answering our questions and walking us through each line item. For two people who had never gone through a major renovation before this was incredibly helpful. He originally told us it would take 3 - 4 months to complete the job and everyone who we talked to, who had been through a renovation, told us to expect at least double that. True to his word, Mike and his team completed the work in under 4 months and this was after we were delayed by two weeks when they had to fix shotty work that had been done before we moved in. In addition Mike was very conscious of our budget. He helped us pick cost efficient products and often helped us located less expensive alternatives when he knew of a good option. On the other hand, he and his team are very committed to high quality work and would also let us know if it was worth it to spend the extra money on certain items. If there were places where we could save money by doing the work ourselves, Mike worked with us to let us do that which was a huge plus for us. Throughout the process Mike and his head carpenter Luiz were responsive and did a great job of keeping the whole team on task. In addition, either Mike or Luis were on-site monitoring the work almost every day. This is not a company where you never see the general contractor. I also have to say they were both incredibly responsive to our calls and emails. We are both extremely detail oriented people and Mike took the time to answer all of our questions and he responded in a timely manner. The final product couldn't have turned out better. We have had people tell us that our house looks like it came out of a magazine. And, they are right...it turned out amazingly well, on-time, and within budget!! I would recommend Mike, Luiz, and the rest of the team to anyone.

This is the contractor you are looking for…read more Our project: turn a closet into a half-bath and build another closet. Miguel came in at 2/3 the estimate of someone else and had quicker availability. His crew did great work and were super responsive to questions and modifications.

Thanks, guys!

Josh is a great salesman and my confidence was never higher in his team's work than when he was…read morearound. At the end of the day, I am really happy with the quality of 90% of the work, which is why I'm giving 4 stars. I think underlying Covid-related problems caused most of the grief in our 2021 kitchen remodel: supply chain issues & illnesses causing delays that chain-reacted to stretch a 3-month timeline to 6 months, plus Josh's workload was double of normal with the same number of subs because all his 2020 jobs had been paused and came back ready to resume earlier than expected. I was accordingly understanding, but I still felt like we often got deprioritized as clients-- maybe because I wasn't calling to yell at him, like I overheard once. I almost tried to pitch my project management services to help him manage! We also had a stickler inspector who asked us to expand the scope of the initial project beyond what we budgeted or that Josh wanted to make time for (to rewire the rest of the house vs. just the kitchen). Despite (or because of) these external problems, Josh struggled with managing our expectations/communications. He knew we were first-time renovators who don't know when to ask questions vs. wait to see how it turns out. I am also a project manager in another field, so I love context and details. He seemed defensive and frustrated with us at times despite us trying to be as patient as we could be. I'm sure we weren't perfect clients, but we were trying to be really easygoing about it. Quality-wise: I love just about everything but the paint, which was sloppy in many places and in some cases peeled less than a year later (I suspect it wasn't sanded/prepped properly). I was also disappointed in the visual execution of the plumbing (it works fine), which Josh told me would not be plumbed on the exterior of the house, but was anyway. Plumbers also forgot to add an exterior water spigot but after the 3rd reminder, I gave up. The "construction cleaners" Josh hired to wrap did an okay first-pass on the dust and small debris, but it wasn't really livable until I did my own second pass, then hired another cleaner to do a third-pass deep clean. We also made the classic first-timer mistake of sending the final check before the last punch-list was ever complete. For a few months Josh kept saying "oh yeah I'll be by to take care of that next week" until we gave up and DIY'd a few finishing details and got rid of stuff the crew left behind. None of it was too complicated and it doesn't kill us to practice these skills: quarter round moulding for one wall of the floor, a couple gaps to close between cabinet and wall, capping the old sink pipe, caulking the sink fixtures, and paint touchups throughout. I hope I *never* need to do this extensive of a remodel again (at least not while I'm living in the guest room downstairs!). But if I do, because of the overall quality I would give Josh the benefit of the doubt on those extenuating circumstances.

Taking on a full house renovation can feel overwhelming, but his professionalism, organization and communication made the process smooth. What really set him apart was his problem-solving and guidance.

He gave me great suggestions for my bathroom renovations. He suggested a floating toilet and figured a way to add a stand alone shower and bathtub in my small primary bathroom.
