Years ago my wife and I interviewed Dan Fowler, we were looking for a contractor that would build…read morean addition the way we wanted it do. Several contractors had previously told us that what we wanted done was completely impossible, yet I knew otherwise. Throughout the project, Dan was extremely willing to work with us, even when we came up with some last minute changes; Dan would always smile and say no problem, its your dream home and we can make it happen for you. We decided to add a bay window at the last minute. As a result, Fowler Construction had to pour another concrete pad and footing and reframe the exterior wall. When the job was finally done, we were amazed at how awesome it looked!!! If I had to do it all over again I would not hesitate to call Fowler construction. They were very honest they always kept the job site extremely clean and if there was ever a problem I could call them back and they would take care of it immediately. I highly recommend Fowler construction.

Extremely disappointed with this company. What a waste of my time and money to get nothing for what…read moreI paid for! They knew my budget upfront was a $100k and they said they could complete the job with the targeted budget. After I paid 7k for their so call design fees, they gave me a construction price of $321k. Their design team gave me no innovative ways to lower the cost other than shrinking the size of the addition from a large bedroom to a tiny office. They knew we were expanding our home to accommodate our special needs child and I felt that they led us on with false promises, when they clearly did not want to complete the job. Our main goal, was to expand home to accommodate our special needs child so he could have his own space. Their design team did not think outside the box when I asked to give me different ideas we could accomplish this within our budget. It was very disappointing that they gave me back my same designs I originally gave them. DODSON BUILDERS CONSTRUCTION miss lead their customers by saying "yes, we can complete your remodel within your budget but you have to pay a non-refundable 7k" when DODSON Builders knew they were going to over charge their customers.

They listened to my wants and needs, and implemented each need with the perfect touch of functionality and personality. The owner, Peter, and Mike were extremely communicative and I always knew what was going on and what to expect. Luiz was like a house guest when in my home working, curious and friendly. They sought out new lighting alternatives that would best fit my needs as a visually impaired man, and went the extra mile to make sure all my needs were met. They were always timely, and my and daughter and I felt completely comfortable having them here working. I highly recommend. --Greg and Brooke

Mr. Toor was Very concerned & sincere in his comments to me. I forwarded a copy of the initial billing to him so that he would understand my concerns & issues, thereby allowing him to address this with his employees. I initially considered hanging up on him as it's almost been a year since this occurred, but I'm glad I did not. I appreciate Mr. Toor reaching out to me. He was very apologetic & kind. He never got frustrated or angry at the info I provided him, as some tend to do when receiving less than favorable news. Our conversation was pleasant & I personally feel that the issues I experienced are not typical & he will be addressing them immediately. I would like to point out that my issues were NOT with the quality of any work or services provided but with the billing. As I stated before, Toor Construction showing up at my home without my son (who was overwhelmed) having to look for someone to assist him (during the night), was both a miracle & a Godsend. The customer service Toor Construction provided by arriving on site to offer services in a time of need & now with this follow up contact.....is Exceptional, hence the increase to 4 stars. Thank you, Mr. Toor for your concern & for contacting me. It is very appreciated.

We'd give Val Schwab 10 Stars if we could!!!…read more We were living in an apartment in San Jose and our lease was up. We decided we wanted to start investing in our future by purchasing our first home. We were only 25 years old back in 2010 and were working with a tight budget. When we met Val, we explained to her what we were looking for. We wanted to find a home in an area where we would feel comfortable with our daughter playing outside. Val kept it real with us and said with our price range it would be tough to find what we were looking for, in the area we were looking for. But she went to work. We looked at multiple houses. The houses that we were finding in our price range just didn't feel right. With us being 25 and not having a big budget. We were worried that maybe we wouldn't be taken seriously by a Realtor. Well, I can honestly say that Val never made us feel that way. She took us to easily over 13 houses. Even after 13 houses, her mood never changed. We never felt like she was just trying to push us into a house to get a sale. We felt like she was genuinely looking out for our best interest. When we told her that we felt like we were going to have to settle, Val said, "No, I am going to find you your dream house!" She worked tirelessly to find us our dream house. Well, she came through. I remember it like it was yesterday. It was a Wednesday and she said that she had found "The House." She called us and said that we were going to have to act fast. She said that the house would be showing that weekend and if we could make an offer before it showed that we would have less competition. She informed us that the home was a foreclosure and that we would be going against other cash offers. But she knew the selling agent and she felt confident that she would be able to get us this house. On our way to the house, there was a park down the street with a running trail. As we pulled up to the house we saw kids playing in the street that were the same age as our daughter. Our eyes lit up and now we were even more excited to see the house. This was just getting better and better. As we walked in, what we saw behind the dark-colored walls and gross brown carpet was the perfect floorplan! We looked past the outdated kitchen and the strange color scheme of the house. The house was set up just the way we wanted! It needed some TLC but it was perfect! In the perfect area! We knew this was the house we had been looking for. We had to have it!!! Well, Val came through! Not only did we get the house!!!! But she also got the seller to cover some of the repairs. Once we got the keys to the house, we immediately had someone come in to remove all the popcorn and repaint the inside. Haha. I can still remember walking through the house with dark forest green walls. Dark brown walls, with brown carpet. Duck and Pig Tiles in the kitchen with light blue formica countertops. Orange faux paint in the bathroom. Haha. When we first walked back into our new home after the new paint job... It looked so bright and big now that all those dark colors were gone. That was 10 years ago and we can honestly say that this truly has been our dream home. We are now 35 and have 3 girls and they have made some life-long friends here. We couldn't be happier with the purchase we made, and the decision we made to go with Val Schwab. And we couldn't have done it without the guidance from Val! We really owe her everything. We would definitely recommend her. She was very knowledgeable of the area. She answered any and all questions we had along the way. She really listened to what we wanted and our budget. We can't say thank you enough. Well, let me try... Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!

Before I started this review, I went into the roster for Realty Concepts just to count the number…read moreof family names, holding a Real Estate license, who are currently employed by this broker, JP. At 220 licensed employees, I stopped counting. If you read the opening Web Site page, you will notice that Realty Concepts is a "Family Own Business". Wow, I have never seen such a large FAMILY with so many licensed Realtors in my life!! JP wants you to believe that they are all family. People, this is called deception at it's best. My wife and I contacted Realty Concepts because we were new to the area, did not know anything about country living, they had good reviews, and Cathie Jensen seemed like a very honest person. We were a little gun shy because we are both seniors, and people take advantage of seniors. (62 and 74) Looking for our retirement home, and laying out a big investment was a huge step for both of us. Our very first day with Cathie, she not only filled us with lies, but also committed fraud a get this purchase into escrow. Cathie was out of state on vacation, and never told us. Half way through the 35 day escrow, so many things were going wrong, manager Rick Tomasello took over the sale, because we refused to have Cathie represent us any further. This entire 35 day escrow, was a total disaster. We felt even Mr. Tomasello failed his responsibilities to us. Months after the close of escrow, we took our complaints to the Broker JP, hoping for some answers to our concerns about the sale. The management of Realty Concepts laughed at us during the conference meeting that JP had scheduled. After that, JP has turned his back to this issue, and has walked away. Professional?? I'm retired law enforcement for L.A., and I will continue to do my best to warn people, of the reckless and criminal people that plague society. Don't ever trust Realty Concepts of Fresno. We have lost thousands and thousands of dollars. This will go to court.
