Called RLaBrie Construction about an unfinished kitchen remodel project. Roger called me right away and asked specific details about the range hood installation. He was thorough in his explanation and relayed it to me in a way that was very understandable. His office manager immediately reached out to me about a convenient time to do the range hood installation. Two RLaBrie employees came the following week and exactly on time. They lay down blankets/covers to protect the areas, left the kitchen debris free and were very professional. I was a little worried about the electrical not being right for the area and to my relief they figured that out, no problem. They completed the job at the quoted (and very reasonable priced) time. The hood looks absolutely perfect; it is level, straight and at exactly the right height from ceiling to range. I highly recommend this company for your home projects. I wish I found them before my other home projects. Thank you R LaBrie Construction. read more

So glad to have found Roger and LaBrie Construction! We had water damage (which led to dry rot and termites) in an ADU-type structure on one of our properties, and immediately came to Yelp to find an expert to help us out. Roger was available for an initial consult, and he was both very knowledgeable and a straight shooter. He's old-school in the way he genuinely cares about clients -- down to earth, no bull, honest. He handled part of the rebuild project for us, and his team was efficient and hardworking. I wouldn't hesitate for a second in hiring him again. Highly recommended! read more

The owner Roger is a great guy and stands by his work and the work performed under his name. His on site crew was respectful and great to work with. I needed a Flo By Moen water valve and Gas Seismic Valve installed at my house. Roger was available within a week and worked with me to make sure the correct parts were ordered and for the correct price. I would definitely hire them for the next job. Thanks for the professional job Roger! read more

I had a shattered window (4'6" X 5' 6") that needed to be boarded up temporarily. The work was well and promptly done -- it was just very expensive ($450) for such a small job! read more

Roger is extremely pleasant on the phone, and I can tell they are very honest people and insightful. Truly a breath of fresh air. Although for my current repair project, my budget was too limited to warrant their services, I will definitely be using him and his company in the future. Thank you! read more

We had La Brie Construction (Lamorinda Home Repair) upgrade two bathrooms and fix a closet door. They are excellent. Joe and Luis were on the job and were very good to work with and competent. The office communicates well. I highly recommend them - we'll hire La Brie again when we have a home repair need. read more

I am very happy to review R LaBrie Construction. Roger LaBrie has years of experience, is incredibly personable, and has a fantastic eye for the details you need when remodeling your home. We hired Roger to remodel our master bathroom which had not been updated since the late 70's. Not only did he bring a beautiful vision, but he kept it simple and clean, did not try to over build it. Our walk in shower was the biggest he had ever built, and the masons he brought in to custom cut every piece of stone and line up the pattern were unbelievable. No matter what we threw at him (built in towel warmer, medicine cabinets that required designated plugs, heated floor, unframed glass wall, custom cabinets) he had either the expertise or resources to make it happen. Finally (though I could go on), when someone and their crew work in your house for weeks or months at a time, you want those folks to be nice and respectful. This is Roger and his people, completely trustworthy, nice, clean and accommodating. Even when we weren't there, but maybe one of our kids or dogs were, we had no worries. read more

Thank goodness my Realtor referred me to R LaBrie Construction for a quick bathroom refresh. We were putting our home on the market and we had a 1980's bathroom that didn't match the rest of our beautiful remodel. Roger's crew, Larry on the job and Heather in the office made this such a smooth process. Roger was in my house less than a week after calling them and the crew began the work BEFORE Christmas! They were finished before New Year and I have a beautiful bathroom. The work is top shelf, they were super polite and careful and Heather kept me informed through the entire process. Oh, and did I say that their price was VERY reasonable. Thank you, R LaBrie Construction! read more

Our previous contractor spent 8 months on our remodel and totally botched it!! Electrical, plumbing, cut into floor support beams! My realtor recommended R LaBrie construction and they came right away. - even though they were really busy - and knew exactly what to do - and started right away! What great guys that really know their stuff. Our project is finally complete and everything is perfect! read more

Roger came by to look at the jobs; he was thorough in evaluating the work needed. It was not an easy job and he tried to think of a creative solution for us. Though we may not commit to the work due to the increasing of the lumber/labor price which is much over a teacher's budget. I found Roger to be knowledgeable, easy to communicate and professional! The staff in the office is also very easy to speak to. Thank you! read more

Joe of LaBrie's Construction and Lamorinda Home Repair came to fix the outlet in my bathroom after it had been installed incorrectly. Although it was a small job, he was on time, very professional and kind (a rarity these days) . I'll definitely call again for any home repair. Thanks, Joe. Robin C read more

Very happy that I contacted Lamorinda Home Repair. Reached out on Yelp and received feedback almost immediately. Scheduled an appointment, and the Team was right on time. They fixed my shower faucet in less than 30 minutes. The team was friendly and efficient. Will contact again for help in the future. read more

We recently hired Lamorinda Home Repair to do some termite damage repair on our house and we were not happy with the service and the price we paid for it: they did finish the job in the timeframe they gave us, but it was a mediocre job and they overcharged us for it. If they charged us fairly by time and materials it would have cost a little bit over half of what they invoiced us for. We wouldn't be hiring them again. read more

Our experience (we recently bought a house in Lafayette): 1) We paid $120/hour each for two workers. One was decent, the other was clearly in training (both were young men). In my opinion, we were overcharged. Have since hired other local handymen at $75 an hour with higher skill sets and who worked faster. 2) One of my issues was electrical; after several hours of both workers trying to figure it out (taking apart the electrical boxes, one exterior one which was left torn apart) Dennis told me to hire an electrician. I did, 15 minutes and $60 later the electrician fixed the problem (two GFRs were tripped). 3) One issue was a drip in my shower. Dennis told me they would have to drill through the tile to fix it. Thankfully, this is one of the items they did not get to (after spending 2.5 days and $3700 on my job, they did not finish my list of about 10 items). A plumber just left, after 20 minutes he had the shower drip fixed, and no, it did not involve a drill. 4) Lastly: I had the workers replace 5 fans, three of which had LED lights. Last week I decided to add light kits to the remaining fans. I asked my new contractor (who has built 35 houses so I know he's capable) to do this. He opened up the fan switch that these guys had installed. The wires had been left exposed (he showed me) -- both a hot and a ground wire touched and all my lights went out. Contractor says it was a fire risk. I now have to hire an electrician to check all of the Lamorinda Home Repair electrical work. I feel Dennis should have told me to hire an electrician before they took on this task. I hope this helps you when deciding who to use for what jobs, and how much to pay for it. There were some things I think they did just fine, but in retrospect I feel I was overcharged. read more

Dennis and Lamorinda Home have come to our rescue many times. Honest, reliable and reasonable.

I have used Lamorinda Home Repair for handyman jobs around my home. They have been great in both fixing the problem and getting the job done quickly. I also had questions about areas I thought may be in need of repair; but was told there were no problems. I could have been told anything and would have believed it. I was very impressed with their honesty. I also know Lamorinda Home Repair are contractors and have years of experience in home remodel. I see their trucks everywhere and was grateful they would take care of my handyman needs. When the need arises for a bigger job, I will be sure to call them. read more

Ramiro did an excellent job on our small bathroom remodel last month. We appreciated his attention to detail when it came to the tile work. The guys cleaned up after the project and were always good about communicating what their arrival time would be. We will use them again for future projects. read more

I had Dennis and crew work on some dry rot I had on my house. Dennis gave me a fair estimate, started work when he said they would and completed the work when they said they would. Also very happy that the work was done safely. The house looks great! I'll work with them again when the opportunity arises. read more

I have had Lamorinda Home Repair come to my house several times to take care of routine household repairs. Recently, they replaced a door knob on a door leading from my den to the garage. The repair man did a great job. He checked in with me to see if the hardware was working the way I wanted, and continued to refine the door closing so that it was exactly right. On another visit, they resealed about 10 outside vents leading under the house to ensure small animals couldn't gain entry. The repair man worked quickly and efficiently to complete the job, which also included temporarily removing the wood lattice around the porch in order to reach the vents underneath. Their customer service is terrific and they are usually able to schedule the repair within a day or two. I've been very pleased with their work and customer service. read more

I called Lamorinda Home Repair to help remodel a bathroom and they not only did a great job, they even found ways to minimize the cost. They were creative and efficient and clean. Dennis is a pleasure to work with and I would recommend him to any of my friends or family. read more

After contacting three other contractors/ handymen for several small projects, we hired Lamorinda Home Repair. Although the work was small in scope, it did not deter them from delivering excellent customer service. They were also upfront with charges, which I found to be reasonable. Most of the work involved carpentry projects -dry rot and wooden fence repair at different places on the property. They also reset pavers that were badly out of alignment in large areas. On the inside, they fixed some under-cabinet lighting and faucet leaks. Based on our experience, we would consider them for larger projects. read more
