Brian V. came over to check out our house and to see if our expectations were realistic. He was very calm and organized. We found him very knowledgeable, especially about the San Mateo County permit & planning department. We interviewed a couple of other architeture firms, but found Brian at The Kastrop Group to be the best. Once we hired Kastrop, Brian quickly set up a time to come measure the entire house. Our 80 year old cottage had no central air/heat, so Brian referred us to an engineering firm that would help work out all the computations that the permit department would need to approve this addition. As we moved through the architectural design process, Brian came up with solutions that would give us what we needed, along with a few suggestions that would provide more storage near our new second bathroom. We found Brian and Kastrop to be very accomodating with no drama. We like it when there is no drama. Once the architectural drawings were approved, we wanted to know if we had budgeted enough for the renovation. So, Kastrop had a General Contractor look at the plans and visit our house to give us some preliminary numbers. This was a big help for us and we were so thankful for this extra step. The Kastrop Group is an outstanding architecture firm that took us through the entire architecture design process with a gentle hand and no drama. We were grateful for their professionalism and their recommendations. If you are considering renovating your house, your first stop should be The Kastrop Group for impressive architectural expertise and being a great partner to navigate the county permit process.

But from day one, Jill exceeded our expectations. The project involved tearing down an old, dilapidated screened-in porch that had never really worked for us -- too cold in the winter, too hot in the summer -- and transforming it into a usable interior room. We wanted to keep the light and airy feel of a porch while gaining insulation, comfort, and year-round usability. We also wanted ideas for built-ins: maybe a window seat, maybe bookshelves -- we weren't quite sure. Other contractors over the years had taken one look at the porch and declined to get involved due to its age and condition. Not Jill. She had ideas right away. Jill brings so much energy, creativity, and practical knowledge to the table. Even while juggling big personal commitments (like her son's graduation across the country), she delivered several strong design ideas within a few weeks -- and they were fresh, inspiring, and budget-conscious. She collaborated easily with our civil engineer, adjusting her drawings quickly to meet his needs. She also understands our local codes and regulations really well, and met directly with our contractors to make sure her designs were realistic and executable before we got too far into the process. On top of all that, Jill has a fantastic personality. She made the experience fun and engaging, and she brought a sense of momentum and confidence that really helped us move forward. I can't recommend Jill highly enough -- her creativity, responsiveness, and enthusiasm make her a true gem. If you're considering working with TANGERINEdesign LLC, you're in excellent hands.

Going into this, we were absolutely terrified--especially after hearing so many horror stories about year-long delays on major renovations.

They completed this massive project in just four months, beating their initial six-month estimate. More importantly, they turned what could have been an incredibly stressful ordeal into a smooth, streamlined process. Eli walked us through each and every step with detailed weekly updates, keeping us entirely in the loop. We were actually out of town for two of those months, but because of his proactive communication, his team made lightning-fast progress while we were away. We are thrilled with the final result.

He would stop by almost every night to ensure that the subs were performing their work and not leaving or damaging any other contractors' work. Sarmad is a problem solver. He sees an issue and thinks through how to solve it, then presents clear options to choose from. Throughout the process, we were not surprised by unanticipated expenses - all changes were clearly explained and we had the option to make changes via clear change orders. EDR uses Buildertrend for all program management and billing, which made payments, change approvals, and scheduling tracking seamless. While this sounds like a basic requirement in 2026, not all contractors use these services which just adds friction to the process. We couldn't recommend EDR more for the quality of work on our house, the schedule execution, care for detail, and just taking care of our project.

My wife set up the initial consultation, and Daniel Dugan met with us. He was super easy to talk to, genuinely into what he does, and came with a lot of thoughtful ideas. His background in construction really showed -- he wasn't just focused on aesthetics, but on making sure everything was practical and well thought out. He also did a great job working within our budget. At no point did we feel pressured to overspend, and he was flexible in helping us land on a design that made sense for us. After putting together the design, he invited us into the showroom so we could see and feel the materials in person, which made a big difference in finalizing everything. One of the coolest parts of the process was the VR walkthrough using Oculus headsets. Being able to "step into" the closet and get a feel for the bar heights and layout was honestly really helpful and gave us confidence in the final design. Daniel was patient the whole way through -- never pushy, always willing to answer questions. Installation was easy to schedule, and the crew was efficient, respectful, and completely self-sufficient. We did run into a couple of minor issues after installation, but Inspired Closets handled everything quickly and without any hassle, which says a lot about their customer service. Now that we've been using the closet for five months, we're really happy with how it turned out. It's made from MDF, feels solid, and had no odor at all, which we appreciated. Overall, highly recommend Inspired Closets, and especially Daniel. Great experience start to finish -- even months later, it holds up.

Finally - we went down to the cost and almost agreed to the process. Only thing that was a bit harder (which is very good for their business!) - they are little busy. The lead time could have been about 4 weeks - and we wanted to get things done at the soonest. I wish we were in different position! You would be in good hands if you go with this reputable company. And if you get connected with Henrieta - the process should be much smoother (not saying other would be different , we just did not need to talk to anyone else!).

I've always been a bit nervous about using bold colors, but she pushed us (in a good way!) for a deeper color palette in the main living areas. It looks incredible. Kanika found us so many unique, high-quality furniture pieces that you just won't find at a big-box store. The biggest thing for us was logistics. Once the design process completed, their team handled everything - architectural, permit headache, and construction. Anyone who has done a remodel knows things never go 100% perfectly, but whenever an issue popped up, they were on top of it immediately. They kept the contractors moving and kept us updated on the budget and what was happening next. It's a relief to finally be done after 2 years and have a home that feels like us but way better. I can't recommend Kanika and her team enough. We're still obsessed with how everything turned out.

We especially appreciated their attention to detail--things like aligning baseboards with the flooring pattern, carefully positioning shower fixtures, and making thoughtful finishing decisions that made a noticeable difference in the end result. As with most remodels, we ran into a few unexpected issues once construction began. To their credit, the team addressed these problems quickly and professionally, although they did contribute to some delays in the overall timeline. If I could offer one piece of advice to future clients, it would be to double- and triple-check every measurement and design detail before construction starts. Make sure everything is exactly how you want it and that all dimensions are aligned with your expectations. Most of the challenges we encountered ultimately stemmed from design and measurement discrepancies rather than the construction itself. Overall, we're pleased with the quality of the work, appreciated the professionalism of the crew, and are enjoying the finished spaces.

Due to their unresponsiveness, when pressed to get back to me if they want to take a project, they said they are not interested. So much for providing unmatched customer service. A contractor's responsiveness is a direct reflection of their organizational skills and how they will manage your project.

In my position, I need the rare combination of extremely competitive pricing, exemplary communication, follow-through, craftsmanship, and professionalism. Elite delivers the full package. Elite also brings an incredibly valuable marriage of handyman and contractor work. In California, unlicensed contractors (i.e., handymen) cannot do a project where the value in labor *and* materials exceed $1,000 (increased in 2025 from $600). Elite has positioned themselves to fill both ends of the spectrum by offering exceptionally competitive handyman rates for handyman work, while still being able to do the larger projects that end up exceeding the $1,000 limit and thus require a contractor's license. What that means to everyone from property management companies to homeowners is that you are working with a licensed and bonded company which offers you the necessary protections should things go wrong (I have never had an issue with Elite, but in my role as a fiduciary, it is critical that our property owners are always protected). I receive unsolicited reports from tenants after Elite completes projects to praise their professionalism, cleanliness, respectful and pleasant demeanors, efficiency, and quality of their work. Tenants aren't usually so ebullient with our contractors, but Elite is the exception. I can wholeheartedly recommend Elite for everything from plumbing and electrical work to substantial remodels, having seen first hand their ability to properly and economically perform everything I have sent their way.

Jessica is BRILLIANT! I have spoken to 15 other interior designers and my biggest worry was that I would be taken advantage of since I don't know how the re-model/design process works. She was the only designer that I spoke to that actually said "hey, I think you just need to sit and make a few key decisions and you don't actually need my help here". I was blown away with how honest, smart, and friendly she was during the 30-minute call. She didn't charge me at all and assuaged any insecurity I had in being able to do this on my own. I will absolutely work with her in the future and it also helps that her pricing isn't bad at all! Really wonderful!! read more

We loved partnering with Maureen on the design. She made the entire process feel seamless and stress-free, helping us bring our vision to life while elevating it in ways we couldn't have done on our own. For every decision, whether it was shower tiles or cabinetry wood, she presented us with a thoughtfully curated set of options, saving us from hours of researching online and in-store. She also provided invaluable guidance on where to invest and where to be more cost-efficient, all without ever compromising on quality. I also cannot emphasize enough how incredible Maureen's eye for design is along with her ability to tailor her recommendations and the design to your personal style and goals.

She would always ask my opinion prior to sourcing design choices, even after I communicated that I had full trust in her. It was true collaboration. Maureen consistently stayed on top of timelines and would keep me updated in a timely manner. We enjoyed working with Maureen so much that we decided to add on a master bath remodel. I now get to wake up every morning in the beauty of our new home. I'm certain that this vision would not happen if it weren't for Maureen's talent. For me, having someone design your home isn't just about their skill and creativity, it also includes how they made you feel through the process. It doesn't get any better than working with someone who is honest, trustworthy, reliable, and talented.

She's savvy, empathetic, and explains complex topics and design choices in a way we understand. My wife and I wanted to renovate the house after it endured a few years of babies/toddler "activities;" We have a 3 bedroom, 2 bath house with office that we wanted to do more than simply paint the walls. Expanding the living room, coating walls, redecorating the whole place with new furniture, you name it. It was a gut renovation, and she understood our needs and cost concerns, helped us stay within budget and still delivered a fantastic design. We communicated frequently throughout the process, mostly through zoom meetings; she was very fast at delivering our changes. I will definitely use her services again very soon for our next project, building a nice and cozy deck and pergola in our backyard. So yes, I fully recommend her, 100 percent!

Pebel did a great job, she was recommended by a friend she did a house for. She understood what we wanted quickly and her work as well as the contractor costs stayed in budget. Most of the work/meetings were remote but that wasn't an issue, she was easy to get in touch with and very responsive. Turn-around time was very fast.

The thing we super appreciated was timely responses and flexibility. It was a long project but she remained help at each step. She really took the time to understand our vision and lifestyle, and transformed our space into something that feels both beautiful and practical. Her attention to detail, colour selection and ability to maximise the space exceeded our expectations. Communication was fantastic throughout the entire process, and everything was delivered on time. We've received so many compliments from family and friends, and we couldn't be happier with the end result. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented and reliable interior designer.

We wanted to do an addition as well as update the design of the entire home. She handled the interior design work and partnered with all our vendors. We honestly don't know what we would do without her. She is worth it and we even referred her to our friends in their townhome update. She has a keen eye and can draw plans and renders! She is also a sweetheart!!
