Project managers were knowledgeable and kept the project moving forward. We finished on time despite a product delay that was outside their control. They demonstrated excellent work ethic and played close attention to detail. We appreciated their honesty as surprises almost always come up during a remodel, but we never felt like they were pushing anything extra or unnecessary. Admittedly, we were probably what you'd call "high maintenance" at times and they were kind and patient with us throughout. We would hire them again!

It was with some trepidation when we made the commitment to remodel our entire house. Have always…read moreheard the nightmare of stories of sporadic appearances by workers, disputes between contractors, delays, delays, delays. We found Generation Builders in Burlingame and couldn't be happier with the entire experience. Leonardo had our trust as soon as we met him. He was able to help us visualize the big picture from the start. He's not just a general contractor but in so many ways a designer. My wife and I were unsure of exactly what we wanted on a few details. He's very decisive and always led us in the right direction. Unexpected things can come up in the process. He always thought of a cost effective way to work through it. A smart, creative man. Our house was built in 1978 and we did nothing to it since we bought it in 2002. It was time for a full remodel! You would expect the work to to require at least 6 months. The entire structure was finished in a little more than 3 months! Workers were arrived by 7:45 every weekday morning working diligently (and politely!) all day. No issues with materials coming on time. Generation Builders is an accurate name for the company because they do it all and to me this is the way to go. No worries about disputes between subcontractors regarding one being delayed which causes the next to be delayed, etc. Those variables are eliminated with Generation Builders. The buck always stops with them. The work performed was outstanding. Our house is beautiful. Wonderful quality at a really good value. Ecstatic with what basically has become a new home. Leonardo, Deborah and the entire family at the core of Generation Builders are stars. Incredibly efficient, great communicators, punctual, always there. Anytime we called or texted (sometimes after hours) the call was answered, text or call returned immediately. Absolutely quality people who we consider friends at this point. Couldn't recommend the company any higher. The biggest cash outlay we've ever made and we're so happy with our decision to go with Generation Builders.

After starting our project with another company, we realized that once demolition began, progress…read moreslowed down significantly. Since we were short on time, we decided to find a new contractor to complete our new house. Masterful jumped in and started construction even before all the design details were finalized because we couldn't afford to waste any time. Atar , the designer, stayed in daily communication with us to finalize the design while the crew, managed by Nur, began work on the rough electrical and plumbing. We genuinely felt like the whole company was focused on us, even though we know they were helping other clients at the same time. We only wish we had met Masterful sooner. Thanks to all their hard work, we got exactly what we wanted and are truly grateful.

We bought an old house and decided to turn part of it into a real master suite by adding a new…read morebathroom. We had a general idea of what we wanted, but nothing too clear. When we met Yuvi for the first time, he immediately understood our vision and came up with great ideas and creative ways to make it work within our space. A few days later, Yuvi came back with two detailed quotes and patiently walked us through both options. He answered all our questions and helped us choose what would work best for our home and budget. From there, everything moved smoothly. The permitting took around three weeks, and construction was finished in about two and a half months, right on schedule and with no surprises. We also want to mention Adrian, the designer, who was such a pleasure to work with. He helped us choose all the materials and finishes while staying within our budget. His eye for design and attention to detail made the whole process so much easier and enjoyable. The combination of functionality and style he brought to the project made a huge difference. Throughout the whole process, the crew was respectful, clean, and very professional. They paid attention to every little detail, and it really shows in the final result. Our new master suite looks amazing, and it feels like it has always been part of the house. We are so happy we chose Masterful Construction for this project and would absolutely work with them again in the future.

I reached out to Method Remodeling to explore my options in remodeling 3 very outdated bathrooms in…read moremy home. I (regretfully) did not end up moving forward with them on this project, but wanted to write a review because I was so thoroughly impressed with my interactions with Doron. Doron was the first contractor that I spoke with about my project, and was by far the best experience that I had. He took the time to really look at my space, listened to my needs and specific requests, and gave great suggestions on how I could improve it. After taking measurements he sat down with me for over an hour patiently answering all of my questions. This was my first time considering a major remodel and he was great at anticipating where I would need guidance. He also showed me various completed projects in his portfolio and I was so impressed with the quality of his work. I could tell that he really takes pride in his team and his craftsmanship. Doron was able to provide me with an initial quote on the same day as our consultation. I ended up with further questions and changes, and he graciously set up a zoom call with me to address them the following day. Out of all the contractors that I spoke with, Doron stuck out for being the most passionate about his work and also the most detail oriented. I really appreciated his honesty with me about what I could reasonably expect. As this was my first project, I didn't have a good idea on what to expect regarding costs. I didn't end up moving forward with Method Remodeling because of my budget, but would love to work with them in the future when I am better established.

We really appreciated working with Method. We have an old house and our bathroom was significantly…read moreoutdated and had water damage. We were on a tight budget and Method worked with us to create something beautiful within that budget. Our bathroom is now the nicest room in our house! The things that I really appreciated about Method: Communication: weekly meetings, daily updates on the work. It was always clear where we were in the project. Honest and transparent pricing: I think there were several surprises along the way that another contractor would have upcharged us, but Doron often went the extra mile. Extra effort to fix whatever problems came up: All projects have their hiccups and I felt like Doron and his team made every effort to fix whatever came up and work with us to solve problems.

I hired Jackson and Ace to remodel our bathroom and to turn our family room closet into a laundry…read moreroom last fall. They were able to start right away (once the permits were approved by city hall) and they were very responsive to calls and texts throughout the project. Their team did a great job with both rooms and the price was reasonable. They even did a lot of extra little jobs for me for no extra cost, like replacing some of our old outlets with modern outlets with USB-C ports, and helping me fix a ceiling light. They also hauled away some of our junk after we moved in since they were already hauling away construction material. Everyone on their team were nice, polite, and professional. If you are particular about your plans I would definitely check in on their work to make sure they are doing it how you want. I had to ask them to start over when they made the grout lines on the shower thicker than I wanted. Even then, they were happy to change it to how I wanted it, but it did add some extra time to the completion date. Overall I am happy with their work and would recommend them to anyone who wants a licensed contractor for home improvement projects.

The designer finishes he implemented throughout the house are stunning, elevating the entire space to a new level of sophistication and increasing the value of the property. Alfredo's responsiveness and flexibility were crucial throughout the project. He was always available to discuss any changes or unexpected issues that cropped up, and he handled them with ease. I'm quite particular about details and Alfredo was accommodating to all requests and ensured every aspect of the renovation was executed flawlessly even it meant redoing something. Thanks to Alfredo and his team for working really hard. They were able to make my dream home come true. Highly recommended!

We had an excellent experience with Daniel from Wise Builders on our kitchen remodel. From the…read moreinitial consultation through completion, their team was professional, organized, and easy to work with. Communication was clear and consistent, so we always knew what was happening and what to expect next. The craftsmanship and attention to detail really stood out -- from the cabinetry and countertops to the finishes and overall layout. The crew was respectful of our home, kept the job site clean, and stayed on schedule as much as possible. Any questions or small adjustments were handled quickly and professionally. The final result exceeded our expectations, and our kitchen looks and functions better than we imagined. We would absolutely recommend Wise Builders to anyone considering a kitchen remodel and would gladly work with them again!

The one bathroom in our 1918 house was in serious need of an upgrade. We chose WISE because they…read morewould hold my hand through the design and build process. All prior interior work in our house had been done by handyman. I really appreciated the communication from our project manager Marc. He created a WhatsApp chat with me and the incredible designer Jocelyn. They were both consistently responsive to any of my questions or concerns -- and opened my mind to design options. Jocelyn spent time in our home, drafted plans, took me shopping, and sourced all the fixtures. From her spreadsheet I was able to find less expensive options for some items. I appreciated the input and control I had on these expenses. Since we needed to move out, I had a tight timeline for the project -- mid October until Thanksgiving. Marc and the team did their best despite City of San Jose delays with inspections. We were able to move back in before the final inspection. Every member of the team was kind and courteous. Marc also did a great job working with the window vendor that specializes in older homes. I'm rating the experience a 4.5 out of 5 for two reasons. I was disappointed that the medicine cabinet, switch plates, and hooks were initially installed unevenly (it was corrected). I expected more attention to detail. And I was disappointed in the wear & tear that happened on my wood floors as well as the overall dust in my dining room. I was warned that things would get dusty -- but didn't understand the extent and would have packed away more things. WISE offers lots of support with design -- they could also offer as part of their package a full cleaning! I offer this feedback to help others calibrate their expectations. Overall it was a positive experience. I waited several months to post this review until I returned from travel and could see how things were settling after regular use. I'm loving the new bathroom and recommend WISE.

The Background My project was a whole-house remodel plus an…read more800 sq. ft. addition. We took the house down to the studs and completely redesigned the floor plan. I did my homework: I inspected his work at a similar job site, gathered bids from four different contractors, and interviewed each one personally. Liran stood out because he was easy to communicate with, honest, and highly organized. The Financials His bid was middle-of-the-road--neither the cheapest nor the most expensive. However, the value was in the transparency. We had zero hidden fees or unexpected change orders by the end of the project, which is rare in this industry. The Reality Check No massive project is perfect. In our case, there was a permit oversight where the fire sprinkler consultant wasn't called in early enough. Because they were backed up, our project was delayed by three months. What sets Liran apart is his accountability: he admitted the mistake and paid our rent for those three months to make it right. Room for Improvement The only area for growth is in the hand-off for final touch-ups. Information didn't always flow perfectly from Liran and his foreman to the subcontractors doing the finishing work, meaning some tasks had to be redone once or twice. It didn't cost me money, but it did cost some time. The Verdict This is an honest look at LB Construction. Despite the minor hurdles, Liran's integrity is top-tier. I am already planning to use them for a second addition and a future ADU.

Some were more complex (e.g. the installation of a shower kit to convert our clawfoot tub to a shower and the construction of a storage space below our house). Some of the projects were simpler (e.g. replacing old electrical outlets, hanging artwork, replacing doorknobs, installing hooks/shelves). Osvaldo and his crew did all of our projects, large and small, with impeccable craftsmanship! The process started with an onsite walkthrough of our projects. Osvaldo gave us a detailed estimate and was communicative throughout. The day of our project work, the crew came early and ready to work. They were very careful to prep the work areas to protect our home. They worked efficiently and came back the next day to ensure everything was perfect with finishing touches. Osvaldo and team went above and beyond -- laying concrete to even out our storage space floor and adding vents. Osvaldo even sent a cleaning crew to clean our house after the project. Just a fantastic overall experience! Thank you, Osvaldo!
