Sorry for the long review but there is a lot to cover :)…read more From the onset of our extensive home remodeling project in Pacific Grove, CA, Christian and his team at Palacios Construction have been nothing short of remarkable! Their dedication to quality, attention to detail, and the seamless execution of my vision transformed our living space. Christian, the owner, was personally involved in every step of the process, ensuring that our two bathroom upgrades were not only functional but also exuded modern elegance. His suggestions were invaluable, blending practicality with aesthetic appeal, which resulted in bathrooms that balanced our budget and desires. The kitchen redesign was a massive undertaking, and Christian's expertise shone through. He helped us navigate through countless options to find the perfect balance between style and usability. The end result is a kitchen that is not only beautiful but also a joy to cook and entertain in. The addition of a new deck has enhanced our outdoor space equally. Christian's choice of materials and design has created an inviting extension of our home that we enjoy daily. The painting, siding, flooring, and drywall work were all completed with the same level of care and precision. Christian's team was punctual and courteous and always left the workspace clean at the end of each day. Throughout the project, Christian was communicative, transparent with costs, and always available to address any concerns or changes we wanted to make. (and I made a lot) Here is the real test... when something goes wrong (and if you have done construction something always does), will they back it up? I had two issues arise, and without hesitation (and out of warranty, might I say), Christian immediately responded and resolved both issues to my satisfaction... I hope you enjoy the pictures and consider his team for your project :)

We contracted Zehm Construction for a small single room and bathroom remodel. Mark Zehm explained…read morein detail how the process would work, what materials are used and why, as well as the cost, so that we had all the necessary information to make the right decision based on our needs. Mark and his crew were very reliable, took great care to protect all surfaces before starting work, and thoroughly cleaned up the job site after they were done. Overall, it was a pleasure to work with Mark and his team, and we would highly recommend their business!

We worked with the city for permits and with an inspector for our rehabilitation loan and Mark guided us through the whole process. His professionalism and communication were paramount.

The work on the home looks absolutely beautiful and we could not have done it without Mark!

Dan helped us repair and renovate our 1942 home and garage, including replacing rotted out posts…read moreand studs, reinforcing structure, enlarging our garage opening, replacing windows and doors, building a half wall, replacing siding, replacing our HVAC system, bringing electrical to code and probably a series of other things that I am forgetting. He helped us work with the city to get the proper permits and pass inspection. He is prompt and responsive, so very easy to work with. He is detail oriented and let's you know about progress and any hiccups along the way. He is flexible and accommodating too. Most importantly, he does good work at fair prices. This is surprisingly rare and hard to find. I absolutely recommend DMC to anyone in the Monterey area looking to repair or remodel. We will definitely be hiring him again for projects in the future.

This was our first experience working with a contractor outside of the Bay Area and were a bit unclear about the Monterey County permit process. Daniel went above and beyond to help us with all the permits (and even went to the country to help us expedite the process!). All of his team members were very professional (Chad's amazing tile team!) and everyone did such a great job. We had some issues with the electrical work in the beginning, but again his team came through to ensure all was done correctly and our home was safe and thankfully we passed inspection (Thank you Santos!). We appreciate Daniel's work ethic , trustworthiness, his teams professionalism and ability to get the job done in a timely manner (they stuck to the timelines). We hope to work with Daniel again and highly recommend DNM construction.

Robert listened to what I wanted and gave me some ideas to make it work. They started when he said they would. His crew was excellent, I asked them to do a couple of things, and it was done with no problem. The project was done in just a few days(not including Sunday and Columbus day). They cleaned up nicely and the job was done with my 100% satisfaction. Most importantly, my wife is happy with the end result! I will definitely be using them for future projects! Thanks again!

Very happy with Armando's work and love our new fence…read more He came by to see the old fence and show us photos of his work for ideas. He explained how different styles and materials would affect cost. In the end we asked him to match the style of the older fencing in our yard, which he did a great job of - but he also made suggestions for some modifications to make the fence more durable. He also added a nice detail work where the fence meets our shed so it matched - which I didn't notice until after the Job was done and we appreciate! The estimate was fair and the work was done on time and within our limited schedule - which we also appreciate.

We contracted HighCo for a major remodeling project…read more Possessing a sense of luxury design, HighCo craftsmen did an excellent job of turning our vision into reality. We were thrilled with the finished product. Jeremy was an excellent communicator, explaining to us in detail what work would be done each day. The crew was conscientious, courteous and good natured. It was obvious they took pride in their work. The project took about four months to complete. The work was continuous, although there were a couple of short delays due to late delivery of materials from suppliers. I would recommend HighCo to anyone planning to remodel their home. Bob H

the problem with LB is they are all talk and no action. They repeatedly bypassed and/or over road…read moremy ideas in favor of a more expedient and profitable design that they tried to sell me on whilst fabricating false barriers to going with my choices. They lied. Each contract is "non refundable" and releasing the design we prepaid was contingent on paying more money and signing more contracts with each contract extending the start time and each contract manipulating the scope of work to add to their profits. We expected a three to four month turn around from design to completion based on our initial meeting, and it took 5 1/2 months just to get the first draft of the design that was not to scale and didn't have corrections. Because they increased the price tag without ever breaking ground and the extended the projected completion date, we fired them. The new contractor started demolition within days, did an impeccable job remodeling the area I wanted remodeled, and was on time and on budget even with additional work for other repairs. LB are not trustworthy. Don't waste your time and money with Them. By the way, other contractors considered our job to be "small".

Lewis Builders (LB) did a gorgeous full-house remodel of our forever home in Monterey. Because the…read moreremodel took place when we were living a couple of hours away, we appreciated having the engineer, architect, designer, etc. all working on the same team. We didn't experience the coordination difficulties that others endure when working with separate companies on the same project. LB does high quality, innovative work and we felt confident that they would complete the work on time. From what we've heard from others who tried the permit process on their own, we never could have done that ourselves as easily or quickly as LB was able to do. They are true experts, and made suggestions about things we didn't even anticipate we would need. It didn't take long for fabulous designer Valerie to understand our needs and style. It was helpful that she did not overwhelm us with choices, and we knew that if we didn't like the options presented she was willing to bring new options. But that rarely happened because she is simply the best. Whenever we encountered unexpected challenges when uncovering the structure of our aging home, we appreciated Dan and Tony's "can-do" attitude at problem solving. We were relieved when some challenges with the home's structure were addressed with the choice of some creative, economical solutions in order to respect our budget. Our funds were fixed, so we really appreciated the team's efforts at getting us the most value from our decisions. The online portal was a convenient way to keep track of messages, photos, selections, and invoices. The 3D rendering helped us visualize the new space and it even showed us where each piece of our existing furniture would go. Something that I think separates LB from other companies are the personal touches we encountered; they were a pleasant surprise, and made us feel part of the family. As we approach the end of our remodel it is nice to know that it is under warranty, and we can easily make a request on the portal to address any future issues. We wouldn't hesitate to use LB again and highly recommend them to anyone considering a remodel, but especially those who want the project done right the first time while living/working elsewhere. Heartfelt thanks to Dan, Valerie, Tony, Sal, Brook, Matt, and the rest of the LB team!
