We had interviewed several contractors and chose Creekside Pro Construction, and we're glad we did. From our first meeting with one of Creekside's Project Manager, Barak, his professionalism and demeanor left us with a good feeling. This positive impression held true throughout the entire project, reinforcing our confidence in Creekside Pro Construction. Working with Barak was a truly positive experience from start to finish. He consistently demonstrated excellent communication skills, actively listening to and addressing concerns throughout the project. Barak's patience and timely estimates made the entire process smooth. The project was completed on schedule and within the agreed budget. I highly recommend Creekside Pro construction and our project manager Barak for his professionalism and commitment to customer satisfaction. Thank you Barak and Creekside Pro Construction for getting us back in our home before the holidays.

Update after the company's response:…read more For transparency, I am adding screenshots from the signed contract and project email correspondence. The contract (Quote #3975 - $150,000) clearly includes upgrading the main residential electrical service to 200 AMP and installing the awning above the ADU access door as part of the project scope. These items were presented in the company's response as if they were additional work, but they appear explicitly in the signed contract. I have also included an email dated Aug 20 from the project manager confirming the project was "on track for completion in 3-4 months." The project ultimately took around 6 months to complete. Additionally, the electrical work referenced in their response included an EV circuit, which is typically required for new construction and ADU projects under the 2022 California Electrical Code. This is a standard code requirement rather than a discretionary upgrade. These screenshots provide context for my experience during the project. Throughout the build I frequently had to verify measurements, coordinate ordering timelines, and raise planning questions that would normally fall under project management. The on-site crew worked hard and treated the property respectfully, and I appreciate their effort. My review reflects the overall experience managing this project as a homeowner and is shared to provide transparency for others considering a similar project.

Yaniv managed a major renovation on our home that included expanding the second floor, remodeling…read morethe kitchen, permitting the 'iffy' spaces, and updating several other areas. It was a complicated project with neighborhood hearings, permits, inspections, and a seemingly endless number of decisions, and he did a great job helping us navigate all of it. We didn't use an architect or a designer, meaning we relied entirely on Yaniv's expertise to brainstorm layout and design ideas. He was a great sounding board, incredibly clear in his communication, and an expert at navigating the complex web of California building codes and city permits. He made it explicitly clear what decisions were required on our end and guided us through what I thought was an overwhelming process. We also appreciated how accommodating he was while we were dealing with construction during the pandemic with a baby. We had to move out temporarily for the demo portion, but Yaniv worked hard to accommodate our schedule so we could move back in sooner rather than later. Any large construction project is going to have its hiccups, but my wife and I are still very happy with the finished product years later. I'd absolutely recommend Yaniv to anyone looking for someone knowledgeable, practical, and easy to work with.

I've stumbled on a fabulous contractor!…read more Our home is 8 years old, and we shouldn't have had the water leakage we had. The shower in the second bath had been leaking, causing extensive damage. We had to completely replace the bathroom due to water infiltration, as well as some sheetrock in the dining room and the second bedroom. When I was in my 20s, I would have repaired myself, but now I'm in a wheelchair and decisively, not 20!! I was referred to a contractor from Concord named Yaniv Taragano, of Taragano Design and Build, and that was the best referral ever! We also had other projects in mind: replace the kitchen sink with a copper one, replace the under-cabinet lights, install two ceiling fans, add "can lights" to the main bedroom, add a pot-filler, replace the bathtub, add a door to the laundry room, and re-paint the interior. Yaniv saved us a bunch of money throughout the project. For instance, he color-matched the wall paint exactly, so only a touch-up was necessary to achieve beautiful walls! He's bonded and insured, and most importantly, he and his people are very careful. I also checked out his license, and there was not a single blemish. He was very timely, and he or his foreman came every day on time. His workers were very cognizant that we still lived in the house and carefully cleaned up every day. If you need, call Yaniv Taragano at (925) 388-6365, or visit his website: https://www.taraganoremodeling.com/ On top of everything else, he and his lovely wife Katie are just genuinely nice people!

I highly recommend everyone working with Joseph, the project manager he was great! This company even went an extra mile and did a couple more things that were not in the scope. Me and my husband are stunned with our new bathroom and again I will highly recommend everyone to use renorevive and I will for sure use them in the future. We are already thinking about another project and there's no doubt that we will use renorevive again! Thank you guys again for the amazing bathroom. We really appreciate it!!

We had a great experience with Joseph the project manager, he made everything easy for us, smoothe, and was very communicative..

TL;DR: Don't give these guys your money. Strong sales pitch, but the reality did not match what was…read morepromised. In late 2024, my husband and I met with Reggie Keding to see if New Key would be a good fit for a major renovation on a 1950s ranch-style home we had just purchased in Pleasant Hill. We loved the idea of working with a local contractor and were initially impressed by Reggie's communication, professionalism, and assurance that he could accomplish everything we wanted within our substantial 6-figure budget (with mid-range fixtures and finishes, which we agreed to). We signed a schematic design agreement, writing a 5-figure check and trusting that they'd deliver on those expectations. We had an initial walkthrough with Maya, New Key's designer, and were excited about her ideas. Reggie encouraged us to "dream big" and share inspiration. However, the vast majority of our emails to Maya went unanswered, and there was very little collaboration or back-and-forth during the design process. After raising concerns, we were shown interim designs that were largely based on our own ideas and didn't add much new direction. A few weeks later, we had our formal design presentation and were beyond disappointed. All three options ("good, better, best") felt underdeveloped and missed key priorities. For example, two versions did not include vaulted ceilings in the main living space (which we had clearly identified as a must), and even the top-tier design featured a very small kitchen window despite the home's natural light and backyard views. Some design choices also introduced significant added cost without clear benefit, such as removing a load-bearing wall where simpler alternatives seemed possible. But the kicker was the price to build New Key's designs: even the cheapest "good" design came with a price tag of $1.2 million to build, pretty much doubling our budget and definitely overvaluing for our PH neighborhood. At that point, we lost confidence and decided to part ways after the initial design phase. While Reggie remained professional in tone, we did not feel the process or pricing aligned with what had been communicated at the outset. We lost a 5-figure design fee and about 3 months in the process, having to start over with a new architect and builder. Now, a year later, I'm writing this from our fully remodeled home, which includes everything on our original wish list. After starting over with a new team, we were able to complete the project close to our original budget--nowhere near the $1.2M estimate we were given. Losing the time and design fee was painful, but in hindsight, it was better than continuing down the wrong path. I would strongly recommend that anyone considering New Key get clear, detailed pricing expectations early and proceed carefully.

New Key did an absolute outstanding job and we are so happy we chose them for one of the largest investments we've ever made. - Quality Work - Reggie and his team do quality work; they do not cut corners, and they will always lean to do things the right way that is safe, compliant, and functional. You can feel the quality when you walk around; there is a meticulousness to the work that is hard to find anywhere else. - Project Planning - We were assigned a project manager and a foreman who kept us updated very frequently on the state of construction. The work was completed on-time if you account for the realities of construction which were largely due to supply delays and/or the occasional coordinate of some competing work. To convert a workshop (where we literally stripped it down) to a livable, high-quality ADU in 5 months is impressive! Also, they showed up on-time every day and if they were going to be late (or not come), we would be told. - Culture - Everyone that works at New Key Construction was a pleasure to work with; they hire people who care about the work they are doing and make an effort to get to know you. We could tell the employees enjoyed working at New Key, and it shows in the work. We looked at several companies before choosing New Key. I wholeheartedly will say it was worth it - you get quality work, quality communication, a 10-year warranty, and people who legitimately care about you and your home. You won't regret it!

I always felt informed and knew what was going on, They are family owned and genuinely great people to work with which made the whole experience that much better. It felt like working with my own family / friends. They were professional, reliable, and I could tell they really cared about the quality of their work. What impressed me the most was that they actually finished the project two weeks ahead of the timeline they originally gave me which was such a nice surprise. I would definitely recommend Wolf Renovations to anyone looking for a trustworthy company with great communication and people who truly care about their customers. I have my backyard project coming up next summer and will be calling them as they do outdoor as well.

Let me begin by saying how thrilled we are with the total renovation of our bathroom…read more We were in a bit of a rush as we were leaving on vacation and wanted the work to start as soon as we returned. I called on a Thursday and Eric and his team came to look at the job that afternoon. By Saturday we were in the showroom picking out materials and having a fully generated vision as well as a definitive price. The service was fabulous and we felt fully confident we chose the right company for us. The only reason I did not give a full 5 stars is that there were a number of times when the communication was less than we expected. It was mostly remediated once I brought it to their attention and I expect they will continue to improve in that area. We have a number of projects planned out for the next few years and I would not hesitate to call Wolf Renovations. I highly recommend this company!

Unfortunately, after meeting with a representative to review the scope of the project, we never received any follow-up or a quote.

However after that, I started receiving emails stating that I had chosen to move in a different direction and that I should consider them for a future project. The confusing part is that we never made that decision. we were waiting to hear back. I was genuinely interested in working with them, but it ultimately felt like the company chose not to move forward with us.
