Both times resulted in exceptional quality work with white glove customer service throughout the remodel journey end 2 end. One example: the framing was custom and the quality so remarkable the City Inspector even commented on what an amazing job it was! Paul is exceptional to work with and very customer focused. All his sub-contractors reflect the same - all very focused on providing top quality work. Of course there were some unexpected twists along the way as with any large scale remodel on an older home - but Paul and his team always ensured all was taken care of as needed - including some custom work they needed to do once walls were removed. I highly recommend Modern Renovations!!!

Paul did our fireplace remodel in our new (used) home a few months ago. The price was right and the…read morejob came out excellent! Paul was very flexible and accommodating. He left us with the paint he used (for future touch ups) and gave many many pointers on how to fix other things (painting, patching, etc.) that we were thinking of remodeling soon. A great guy to carry a conversation with and very intelligent. He knows his stuff. CONTRACTOR TIP: This is for ANY contractor, not Paul specifically. BE VERY CLEAR with what you want. Draw it out, grab sample pictures, write it out, sign off on things, etc. If you don't, it'll be a headache for you and the contractor. Plus, you might not get what you want and waste your money. Just throwing that out there for those looking to hire a contractor...

I ordered a set of custom made cabinets for kitchen, island, bath totaling almost 25K for my new…read morehouse. The point to get custom cabinets vs ready made ones (which is 1/3 the price) is that the frames are bigger to encompass multiple cabinets, more precise measurement, more precise installation, and quality of the wood. I paid for maple face doors which they told me is from Cal doors. Not only was the cabinets not delivered in time (6-8 weeks), but they refused to install it, measurement was off in multiple places, and now I'm beginning to find out that it's made of MDF not just for the center panel, but its entire face! The paint chips so easily because MDF is hard to coat. We used wood instead of MDF for closet shelves for this very reason. Same thing with using wood baseboard in bathrooms vs MDF due to moisture. Trust is broken when they promise things verbally but don't deliver and does not respond to emails after the general contractor installed the cabinets. Even the ready made ones from grand J and K at 1/3 the price are made of real maple. After couple of months of usage, the paint is peeling off in big chunks not to mention the warpage in corner cabinet. They told me it will be stained, multiple times. Then became paint grade wood, now it's all MDF!

This wasn't a small project--they essentially transformed the entire house. The end result speaks for itself: our realtor now calls it one of the best-designed homes in Union City. That says a lot. What really stood out was how collaborative they were. They didn't just execute, they partnered with us. Every idea, change, or curveball we threw at them was met with a "yes, let's figure it out." They managed all subcontractors seamlessly, which made a huge difference in keeping things on track. And they held everyone to a high standard. For example, when we switched to a metal staircase, there was a minor symmetry issue. Instead of brushing it off, they made the subcontractor redo the entire thing until it was perfect. That level of ownership is rare. Pricing was fair and transparent, especially given the scope and quality of work. Even more impressive, they completed everything in record time. We were also living in the house during construction, which is usually a nightmare. But they handled it thoughtfully and professionally, minimizing disruption as much as possible. Most importantly, they went above and beyond to make sure the final result matched our taste and expectations--not just what was "standard." If you're looking for a contractor who is detail-oriented, accountable, collaborative, and fast, these are your guys. We continue to use their services and they recently completed another two bedroom and bathroom remodels in our new home.

All this was done more than 15 years ago. He addressed all our needs and did an excellent job every time and so I reached out to him again after more than 15 years for doing more work!

This review is a bit long, mostly because there isn't much information available about Ashkan or…read morethe company. I was looking to finish an unfinished basement in a home I built about 40 years ago. As the original homebuilder I have substantial experience, but I'm now too old to do the heavy work. I had basic drawings and specifications, including details for a bit of required framing modifications. I solicited bids from a couple of contractors, including Ashkanz, who I found on Craigslist (probably not a good place to start). Ashkan came to my home quickly and on schedule, and provided me a quote the following day. His quote wasn't comprehensive or highly professional, but covered the basics and was extremely competitive. As requested, he quoted the complete job including insulation and plumbing, but less flooring and electrical (work which I did). I asked him for references, which is when I began to have some concerns. His website shows many completed jobs, but he could only provide one phone number for a local woman who said he'd done a couple of remodel tasks in her home. She gave him generally good marks. Strangely his Yelp page had (at the time) not a single review. I decided to proceed, and he gave me an approximate start date, which came and went with no action. I began to call and email him regularly, and most of the time he failed to respond, but whenever I was able to connect he'd advance the start date. I eventually visited a worksite where he was working, and saw what appeared to be reasonable quality work. I even asked him, at one point, to requote the job a bit higher since I thought perhaps he was not proceeding because the original quote had been too low. After perhaps 6 weeks he provided another start date, and actually showed up with people and materials. His crew seemed to include family members, including his father who seemed to be present for moral support. The crew worked fairly quickly and the framing was done in a couple of days. I had to remind him of some aspects of the design to which he'd agreed (including waterproof coating on a concrete retaining wall, additional insulation, and some measurement errors). Upon completion of the framing and insulation his sheetrock crew arrived, and they worked rather inefficiently at installing the sheetrock. The crew head told me they were actually a taping and texturing group; the hangers had failed to show so the taping/texturing folks did the hanging. The general fit of the rock wasn't great, but they covered any problems with good taping and texturing work. The only finish carpentry work needed was hanging one door, which I provided. The work was sloppy, but I had requested hanging my door and these days most crews only use pre-hung doors. Ashkan's plumbing associate was also quite bad at meeting date committments, and I'd say the quality of his work was adequate. So... The good: Price was competitive Quote request was responsive and quote was provided quickly Once begun the work was completed quickly Framing work and insulation was well done Overall finish quality was adequate for a basement spare room The bad: Post quote communication was terrible Failed multiple times to meet start-date committments Attention to the plan was shakey Some of the work was less than professional His subs seemed somewhat disorganized and not completely professional, but were adequate Note that Ashkan and everyone at the site was perfectly pleasant. Daily site cleanup was not great, final cleanup was OK. Overall, I'd recommend Ashkan for a job where "Inexpensive spec house" or "Flipper" quality work will suffice. He and his crew may be capable of better, but only with close supervision.

We recently had the pleasure of having Ron Paris Construction remodel the apartment complex where…read morewe reside. Our apartment complex management company tends to go with the cheapest bidder, so we weren't expecting much when our windows, inner and outer walls, duct work and roof needed to be replaced. The entire apartment complex had fallen into years of disrepair, and Ron Paris Construction was hired to remodel. We were pleasantly surprised by the friendliness, expertise and professionalism that we found with this company! Not only did all of the work get completed with fantastic results, but the entire crew acted with great care to make certain that we weren't inconvenienced by the work. In our unit, we had nine large windows replaced with energy efficient and noise-reducing sliding windows. Not only do our new windows and sills look great -- but they greatly reduced the outside noise that plagued the inside of our apartment! We live across the street from a CalTrain station in Palo Alto (on busy Alma St/Central Expressway). For the first time since living here, we slept soundly because we weren't awakened by the noise of trains or traffic! Regardless of whether they were working in our living room, kitchen, bathroom or outside, the crew of Ron Paris Construction made certain to do a first rate job and to clean our apartment prior to leaving. Although they were fast and efficient, they also took the time to make sure that they did the work right. After finishing the windows, the crew matched the existing paint perfectly -- and it looked better that when we moved in. This wasn't just the case for our unit. All of our neighbors said the same about the work done elsewhere in the apartment complex. Some of the units needed major work and Paris exceeded all of their expectations. The apartment management was impressed as well. It seems odd to write a review for this company (since I wasn't the person actually hired them for the work), but I can't help but say just how impressed that I was with their work. I have lived through other remodels, but I don't think that I have felt quite so satisfied with the completed job, work ethic and friendly professionalism! Kudos to Paris Construction for a job well done! Construction companies are often placed in the same category as mechanics or other repair shops. You end up getting less for more from dishonest guys out to make fast bucks. HOWEVER, this isn't the case with Ron Paris Construction! If you need trustworthy carpenters and a do-it-right-the-first-time construction company with great rates, then Ron Paris Construction is the company for you!
