Need For Build = Honest + Fair + Accomodating I contacted NFB bcuz the 1st contractor hired I did NOT complete water damage job he was hired to do. I called other businesses desparate for help and settled on NFB. It was the BEST decision I made hands down! Nadir Avivi is a consummate professional. He listened attentively to my frustration & concerns. He was very meticulous when looking over every inch of my bathroom and even addressed problem spots missed by the previous contractor. He took the time to explain the NFB remodeling process to me and type of repairs needed. Nadir's crew was phenomenal! They are ALL highly skilled, VERY hard working + conscientious w/re to my home and Covid concerns. I was MORE than pleased with the of quality of work. I would definitely recommend Need For Build for your construction needs. You won't be disappointed! Many thanks to Nadir and his team! read more

We had this company redo our front courtyard and back patio with new pavers. They had to remove all the old concrete which was a huge job. The guys were kind and worked so hard. They were always on time and even finished the job ahead of time. I highly recommend this company and will have them back next year to do our master bath shower! Call Jonathan today and thanks to your team they were fantastic! read more

Loved their work! I get compliments all the time. Rachel was easy to work with and very communicative. They were fast and efficient. Highly recommend! read more

I initially hired Need for build a to remodel my kitchen and after experiencing their workmanship, decided to remodel my 3 bathrooms. I have to say, after going through a few remodels in my lifetime, I have never experienced such vigilance and quality of work. Everyday I knew what was happening, what's the next step and exactly who will be working and when. From start to finish, the project was handled efficiently. I would like to personally recommend them to anyone who is looking for reputable and legit contractor look no further. Thank you Need for build. read more

Today, the last of the work for our front porch remodel was completed. We had contracted with them before on a backyard refurbish and were extremely pleased with the work, so when we decided to do the porch, we called them again. They were so professional, all aspects of the work were handled with care and we were kept apprised when each part of it from demo to cement and tiling was going to happen. Our neighbors have given so many compliments to the new look, greater curb appeal for sure. Rachel organized the process for us as she did the backyard as well. Glad to have them finish and looking forward to sharing that new space with our friends when they visit. read more

Avi was very nice and professional. He never asked for our budget upfront, instead he asked what our goals were and came up with a plan on how to achieve them. He worked with us to reach a design that was within budget and fair. Our project was small and we had a move in deadline. He made sure to fully staff each of the days so we were able to move in on time. He gave us tips on how to be more cost effective and to maintain our new yard. I love that this company is small and family owned. It really shows in their level of care and attention to their clients. If your looking for experts who you can trust to take care of you this is the company to go with. read more

Need for Build put a beautiful deck and sunroom at the back of our house, overlooking a canyon. They were the best people! Friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. We highly recommend them. read more

I originally needed a contractor to fix a poor renovation done on my kitchen. Danny called me promptly the next day to schedule an appointment so he can take a look at my kitchen. He is very accommodating with regards to schedule, and does his very best to make it work with your schedule. He agreed that my kitchen needed some work, but discovered that it was my bathroom, specifically the shower, that needed immediate attention. My shower was done very poorly such that there was moisture detected on the walls, and water damage was imminent and bound to happen very soon. He expressed honest concern and explained to me the consequences if the problem was not addressed ASAP. I recognized the poor work and agreed with him that my shower was rushed and not built properly. Danny came prepared and presented all his documentation as a licensed contractor, complete with insurance bonds, standardized CSLB forms, and notices. He gave me a clear and reasonable estimate, and explained that he will only collect payment after completion of each stage of the project: Demolition, Preparation, Plumbing, Tile, and Completion. This really shows professionalism and gave me confidence that I am not hiring a shady contractor. Demolition was scheduled shortly thereafter I signed the contract. He secures the permits necessary, if applicable. They cover and protect the surrounding area nicely to avoid damage to the property (see pictures). My favorite aspect of this experience is that something is getting accomplished everyday. I am not left waiting in the wings for days and days without anything getting done. Danny helped me pick out the tiles that will work with my bathroom. His design ideas are wonderful, like placing the stones in the shampoo niches and along the shower-head wall, like a waterfall. I am also provided with regular updates on the project. I don't even have to call him because he calls or texts me first. Danny always seems to be reachable anytime, which is good if you're the type of person who wants immediate response. I am confident that my new shower will turn out to be beautiful, look professionally-built, and up to code. I will update this review with the finished project. In the mean time, see before and after pics. I highly recommend Need for Build, Inc. if you want a reputable and trustworthy contractor that actually delivers excellent service at a reasonable price. Do not ever attempt to go cheap and hire unlicensed contractors because you will end up paying more than you bargained for in order to fix the cheap work/problem. I will not hesitate to hire them again for the renovation of my kitchen in the future. read more

Thank god I found those guys!!! I've been shopping around for a year for the right company and finally bumped into them. The passion the have for the what they do and the attention to details is just out of this world. I was notified every day what will happen the next day, cleaned up after themselves every day, were never late and most important respectful to my house and my family. My backyard came out nothing but perfect, this will be a positive experience to remember. Thank you Danny and the need for build team, I would gladly recommend you to whoever I can. read more

Dylan was very helpful & informative! We ended up going another way ONLY because of price so if your budget is a little more flexible, I highly recommend them! read more

Very responsive, fast turnaround and great work accomplished before the given deadline. We'll use them again for sure. A+ company read more

Look no more!!!! This company is really one of a kind, a true family owned and operated company that really puts he customer in the center of attention. The service I got from them you'll never expect from a construction company, it's more fit to the best hotel you've ever stayed in, a true 5 star service. Jonathan went with us to choose every single stone and every single detail for our project, this guy is so creative and knowledgeable it's just amazing. He called us every morning with an update, and visited our job every single day to check on the progress and the workers, if something went wrong he will fix it right away no excuses and no questions asked. We are so luck we met this guy, and thus why I'm writing this review so other people will also get to experience what I did. They might not be the cheapest, but they are by far the best. For the process they are doing their prices are super reasonable. Highly recommended, do yourselves a big favor and hire them. Ask for Jonathan you'll thank me later. read more

Finally after 5 years, we decided to go for it and design our backyard. We knew it wouldn't be cheap but we wanted something we could enjoy for a long time. We had 5 people come out and give us quotes (for our pergolas, concrete pads, and two tiers of turf) and they were all fairly similar (minus the low ball offer people which we didn't trust). What sold us on Need for Build was the promise Andrew made that the price he was quoting us was the TRUE price and that we would not be facing change orders throughout the project. If you have ever dealt with a construction process you KNOW how frustrating change orders and the ever changing price was. The company stuck to this promise and the only time the cost went up is when WE ask for something to be added. Andrew communicated with us through the whole process and when something wasn't done to our expectation of quality (and it did happen), he was very responsive and had it fixed at no cost to us immediately. The project was done quickly and efficiently and at the exact cost we were quoted at the beginning of the project. We have other house projects we will be doing in the future, and I know I will be reaching out to Need for Build for estimates. Another huge PLUS all of their work is warrantied, and I know that this company will still be around if I need to reach out for something to be fixed under warranty (something you can't expect from all of the other companies that promise you extended warranties). We LOVE our new backyard. Thank you to Need for Build and Andrew for helping us make our vision a reality. read more

Highly recommend getting a quote from Avi at Need for Build for landscaping projects. Good quality and once the project is started, it is completed quickly. Front yard: synthetic turf and a low stone wall. Side yard: cast-in-place concrete pavers and rock, new vinyl gate and fencing. Backyard: synthetic putting green. They have a separate crew that only installs artificial turf. They made sure that the surface was prepared properly to get smooth roll and used concrete around the holes to be sure the ball didn't do anything funny right at the cup. The construction started on Jan 2 and was completed Jan 9. They had as many as 9 workers on site. Avi dropped by everyday to make sure questions or issues were dealt with quickly. Recently had an issue with some wrinkles in the turf that was fixed promptly. read more

Hiring Need for build is one of the best the decisions I've made lately. And believe me I've done my thorough research before I decided on them. Here are the reasons why: 1. Price was very reasonable, not the cheapest but definitely not the highest. 2. The quality work and materials they promised was exactly what I've received. 3. This company treats your house like it was their own, clean, respectful, and down to detail. 4. Communication was just flawless, my project managers gio and faith called me every evening and updated me of what will take place the next day. 5. They don't let you wait for two weeks to get the price, they itemize it for you on the same day you meet them, some of the contractors I met never even emailed me the price. 6. The owner Danny will come and visit the project numerous times and address any issue you might have without arguing. Bottom line they delivered everything I would expect from a quality company, Therefore I would highly recommend everyone I know to not think twice and just go ahead and hire them. You'll thank me later!! read more

In 2019 Nadir and his Team completely remodeled the bottom floor of our home, and did a beautiful job. (Reference my review from a year ago). They installed amazing flooring that over time developed a problem in one of the planks that was due to the configuration and heavy use of our kitchen table. Today, Nadir sent his flooring expert out to fix this plank that had cracked. He not only put in a new plank, but he reconfigured the planks slightly so that we will never have this problem again. As is always the case Nadir and his Team are the ultimate in professionalism, and amazing results! Thank you Nadir. read more

Our family was looking to update an original bathroom from built in 1948. It was SUPER outdated and need a whole new look from top to bottom. It was a big commitment to take our primary bathroom out of commission but it is so worth it! And we are so happy to be going through this journey with Tommy of Need for Build. Over the years, we had spoken to many people about redoing the bathroom, but we never found the right person for the job. It had to be a business that had a healthy balance of accountability, quality, service and cost. Right away, we found that connection with Tommy and had no hesitation to move forward with the project. Even through Covid-19, he was the right fit. Tommy walked us through the process of finding what we wanted and what the upcoming remodeling steps were going to look like. He explained that we would be to get the best prices on our design choices through established connections and he was going to be there every step of the way to make sure that this would be a good experience (contrary to most remodeling jobs). Soon after we signed on, we moved quickly into the groundbreaking phase and the project was underway. Tommy was there from the beginning and has consistently continued his communication on a regular basis. The project is ALMOST done and despite a few snags on products and timelines, the bathroom is coming out as I was hoping for - I will post pictures very soon upon completion. I also need to highlight Foreman Jerry and his staff because they have all been of unbelievable caliber, both mindful and thorough. The team has all been really professional, accommodating with the noise (to me working at home), and thoughtful. They are really attentive to the details (my drywall is AWESOME!), super clean in the workspace, and very knowledgeable about their specialties. They have been very respectful about the TLC needed for our "vintage" home and have still managed to successfully bring in some of the modern-day conveniences of new construction into the old school charm of the property. I also felt really good (and safe) about who was coming into my house (with masks nonetheless) and very much appreciated the positive attitudes they showed up with each day. Need for Build has definitely placed customer service as their #1 priority, as they pride themselves from reviews and word of mouth referrals. Tommy cares about his clients and the product that is delivered, and that has been evident from the get go. If customer service is your #1 priority, Need for Build is the contractor for your project, hands down. read more

The experience felt a bit uncomfortable when I went through the quoting process. The staff who came over were nice but I had to sit through a sales pitch that was too long. It felt like I was being prepped up for their higher pricing. read more

Need For Build was a pleasure to work with. Our kitchen remodel came out amazing. We had a 3D design done first, which blew us away. Then when it actually came it life it was even better! So happy we found Need for Build, thanks to our neighbor who also had their home remodeled by them. I cant recommend them enough. The craftsmanship was top notch. Communication was everyday about progress and timeline. They cleaned up everyday after work was done. I love it so much!! read more

Needed a wooden pergola replaced, exterior house painted, and cement walkways added. Derek, Elon, and their crew were great. Even with the supply chain issues everything was completed around 4 months. Very happy with how everything turned out. read more

Need for build INC is a great company that is very professional and willing to work with their customers. We had part of our backyard cemented and rain gutters installed. NFB was willing to work with our budget and are worth every penny. Although we only cemented a part of our backyard the quality of their work far exceeded our expectations! Doron came out to our house for the initial meeting and he provided excellent customer service. He came by everyday to check on the progress of the work being completed and made sure we were happy every step of the way. NFB have a high standard and take pride in the work they complete. We are planning on having a huge house renovation in a couple of years and we will definitely be going with NFB. We highly recommend NFB for any interior/ exterior home remodeling. We can't thank Doron enough and NFB. We could not have asked for a better experience! read more

We recently redid our front yard and worked with Ivan. He was excellent, professional, and communicated well with us throughout the entire project. The guys who worked on our project every day were very nice and worked very hard - they were here almost every day until at least 5/5:30 pm and the fencing guys were here until 8 pm one day making sure the job was done well and correctly. When we have future projects we will absolutely go back to Need for Build to have the project done (and hopefully Ivan will be able to be our project manager again!) read more

Knowledgeable, straightforward, they spent extra time to educate. They responded quickly and were ready to get things done the right way.

We selected Need For Build because we needed a trustworthy team to redo our front landscaping while we were out of town. They really delivered! Orit was our project manager and she was so kind and friendly! She went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and sent videos and details almost daily while we were away. Orit even came with me and our 18mo to pick out plants at the nursery. We LOVE our front yard now (turf, new concrete, river rock, some low-water plants, etc) and all our neighbors love it too. So glad we picked this team! read more

I've been waiting for 5 years to redo my kitchen. Finally we found the company that could really get the job done and make us happy. Never in my life have I thought it will be such a smooth process, from the initial meeting which lasted 5 hours (we had so much fun) which included design, pricing and explaination of the process to the actual remodel that was just flawless. Everything was planned ahead, all the crews had a written scope of work pertains to each one separately, they cleaned up every day, sent us an email every evening of what will happen tomorrow and always answered our questions politely. We were a little scared signing the deal on the dot, but our gut feeling wasn't wrong. Highly recommend using need for build. I saw some reviews here of some people angry they got a discount for signing the same day, I can tell you first hand, you have nothing to worry about. We did it and we glad we did. read more

Signed a contract. Paid them the downpayment (10%). After 10 days, canceled the project because they don't know how to do it. Do not let them come over and waste your time. read more

Need for build handheld my project perfectly. We needed a new pool, doron was the person who met with us , listened to what we're looking for and provide options and very creative ideas . Doron gave us advice on what would work even if it meant a lower price . Doron gave us a price on the spot , he also provided price options which I really appreciated. Once we agreed on price we were given a timeline at the beginning of the project and the price never wavered . They used different and very professional crews for each step of the job. Doron always responded to inquiries from us quickly. It's a huge difference maker when a company like need for build treated us like a vip customer. We can't recommend need for build enough and we plan to use them for future renovations. read more

When a home improvement project presents itself, my tendency is to assume that professionals will make promises, deliver mediocre service, and use low quality materials, while making excuses at the end for their final product. I was therefore skeptical when my wife asked for a quote from Need For Build. David arrived at our home, reviewed the project, made thoughtful suggestions, and showed us catalogues with high quality yet reasonably priced materials you can't find at the home improvement stores. Most surprisingly, we were able to come to an agreement on a price that was fair. After agreeing on the project, NFB took the lead on providing materials to our HOA for project approval. Within a week of approval, the crew arrived to begin work led by Rami who was fantastic. Within a week, the entire project was completed and was beautiful. Another important attribute to NFB was the lack of an upcharge when something unexpected arose. This is simply a reflection of a classy, well-run family company that takes pride in their work. Moving forward, NFB will be our go to for home improvement projects. read more

Need For Build exceeded our expectations! We redid our front yard including drainage. Avi had excellent knowledge and suggestions.

Need for Build did a great job with our backyard patio: part concrete, part artificial turf, and a pergola. Very timely, communicative, and responsive. Doron, the project manager, was always available to answer questions. More expensive than all the other quotes we got, but we decided that we wanted to get the job done well, and with no surprises, so went with Need For Build. read more

We had Rachel out for a quote for a pool. She was fantastic! It was a very informative meeting and I learned a lot of things about pools, contractors and licenses. Once you see what goes into your construction projects (they do everything!) you can understand the quote better. Very competitive pricing and an attractive discount opportunity. We were really impressed! Will definitely be calling them and referring them in the future. read more

Well, the owner did call and follow up. After our productive conversation, he asked me to change my review to 4 or 5-stars. I told him no and that my first experience was still valid and accurate, he didn't respect my answer and kept arguing with me about changing it. Unfortunately, now I understand the motive for his call, as he thought he could get a 4 or 5-star review. read more

I've been thinking about remodeling my bathroom for the past 3 years. This year I finally had time to get to it and make it happen. I researched local RB/Poway companies and decided to go with Need For Build. They were the only ones that gave me an itemized quote on the spot which was super reasonable, and considering their great reputation everywhere it was a no brainer to just go ahead and sign up. They helped me design the bathroom of my dreams, finished my bathroom earlier then promised, there were no change orders, passed all inspections the first time and communicated every day as to what's the next step. They were not the cheapest but definitely worth every dime. If you want high quality, with no headaches and a smooth process, don't think twice. Call need for build. read more
