As a new homebuyer, I was terrified of all kinds of small/big repairs that the inspectors recommended that I get done on my house. First, Petr helped me review the recommendations, focus on the most essential repairs, and helped allay fears of repairs costing tens of thousands of dollars. Next, Hoffman Builders gave me an accurate estimate on various repairs, worked with me on the range of repairs that was within my budget and proposed quality building materials that also suited my budget. Finally, they finished all the jobs ahead of time and did not charge me extra for finishing up early. Petr was trustworthy enough to even refund a part of the estimated cost due to finishing up early. I highly recommend Hofman builder if you want to stress-free work done on your home. I'm definitely bringing them back for the other work pending on my house.

The crew was great to work with and the quality of their work was outstanding. Professional, highly skilled, they were on budget and completed the work within the timeframe given.

If you need a contractor, definitely give Petr a call. I couldn't recommend them more highly! Keep up the excellent work, Hofman Builders! See you next year for my kitchen remodeling!

Franklin and his team did beautiful tile work for us, very professional tile installation and careful matching of the grout color in both bathrooms.

Dust control and cleanup of work areas was careful and considerate. Quality work done for a fair price, easy to schedule, with close supervision of work by Franklin. Highly recommended.

We had an excellent experience working with Franklin and his team when we purchased our first house…read morein June of 2023. FJ Construction offered us the best value, on the fastest schedule, and they did spectacular work. FJ Construction never inflated the scope of work, charged us excess fees, or tasked more people than a job needed. Keep in mind, every project runs into problems when plans meet reality. With FJ, there was always a solution -- along with a patient explanation, and a clear-cut breakdown of the costs. In the end, we were in-budget, on-schedule, and we could not be happier with the results. Not only that, but Franklin was always helpful: we got tips on where to buy grout, and how to do smaller jobs for ourselves. --- Detailed breakdown of work We had quite a list of improvements we wanted to make: - continuation of existing fence to fully enclose the yard - installation of a new door between two parts of the house that were connected by an extra-thick wall - removal of 2 security doors and replacement of 2 existing exterior-facing doors - moving an interior wall (which we opted not to do) Franklin quickly impressed us early on to earn the job. As first-time homebuyers, it was refreshing to speak with a contractor who would (and could) educate us and explain things -- such as pointing out stud patterns in the ceiling that likely suggested a wall was load-bearing. Other contractors would just wave their hands and give outrageous estimates with no explanation of their process. FJ, by comparison, showed an incredible attention to detail, always took measurements and explained what they would do, and patiently outlined every work item and expense before they did it. FJ Construction started work almost immediately. At every step, Franklin would call me over and double-check the work, explaining any tradeoffs that came up in the process. When the fencing didn't line up perfectly during early measurements, he explained why and offered us solutions. When the hallways on either side of a wall didn't line up, Franklin explained our options -- and helped us to frame our off-center door so that it would still look good. When our new exterior doors had thresholds that were too shallow, Franklin retrofitted the old thresholds by cutting and affixing them to the new ones. When we wanted our fence gate moved, Franklin explained to us the liability we might face if it opened the wrong way and tripped a delivery person. Throughout, FJ continually impressed us with thoughtful consideration, thorough explanations, and creative problem-solving. They never left out any details: they cleaned up after themselves, they finished and painted everything so that it matched perfectly, they followed up on their estimates and timelines constantly to keep us informed. I cannot recommend FJ Construction strongly enough. Give them a chance! You won't regret it.

Shaddle's level of workmanship, attention to our needs, and old-fashioned customer first attitude was clear from the start. The honesty and professionalism of John Shaddle, his subcontractors and his crew were evident in every interaction we had with them. It took us almost a year to find Shaddle Construction after the debacle of the prior contractor, but it was worth the wait. John and his subcontractors figured out how to correct the innumerable errors in workmanship in the bathroom interior and the exterior stucco. The shower needed to be completely demolished and redone. Subcontractor Chris Field meticulously made sure the floor slope was correct, the walls were plumb and painstakingly measured and rechecked his measurements before cutting each tile. Chris used a laser beam and a level to check each tile he installed to make sure the tiles were even. He was patient, professional, exacting and a joy to work with. The resulting installation is absolutely beautiful. Subcontractor Armando, of Armando Plastering, fixed the exterior stucco. He is an artist who managed to match exactly the style of the original 80-year-old stucco. The crew made sure that our house was protected from any dust and debris, cleaned up daily and were respectful of our house and us. We love our new bathroom and are so grateful to Shaddle Construction for making our dream finally come to reality. Our faith in people and contractors was restored. Thank you, John!

I have worked with many many contractors, most with frustrating results, bad communication and/or budget overrun. If you are looking for a general contractor for a house remodel, definitely give him a call. You will not regret it. Having worked with him for over 2 years now on various projects and being somewhat of a perfectionist, I am extremely happy with his work. Some of the projects he worked on included rebuilding patio deck, dry rot removal, bathroom remodel, emergency water heater repair and installation, and much more. Bradley is a licensed, insured and bonded general contractor with over 20 years of experience in all phases of construction. His work, a beautiful, complete kitchen remodel, was featured on the cover page of California Home & Design magazine. He is extremely knowledgeable, competent, and trustworthy. There are alot of contractors who are just interested in making a quick buck. Bradley enjoys helping people and making sure that they get a fair deal. He stands by his work. What more can you ask? Superior workmanship at reasonable rates. I refer all my friends and acquaintances to him because I know how difficult it is to find a good, reliable contractor. They are all very very happy with his work. You should definitely give him a call.

It made us wonder if his jackhammer is too small, or if he is cutting corners by using only a single crewmember with a jackhammer, or whether jackhammering was even the best solution.

When I called him to inquire about when he'd be finished and whether his approach was the fastest way to get the job done, he had a really bad attitude; which is what other yelpers have described in their reviews.
