We cannot say enough good things about Rabin General Construction and Richard. From day one, Richard has been incredibly responsive -- always quick to answer texts and calls, and consistently keeping us updated throughout every step of the process. We initially hired RGC to replace four nail-in windows and one slider because we were experiencing interior water leaks. The work was done quickly and perfectly. We were so impressed that we hired them again for painting and a water heater replacement. Months later, our upstairs (brand new) Milgard windows began leaking. Richard came out right away. He brought in their supplier, Agoura Sash & Door, and even coordinated two separate inspections with Milgard's warranty team. Both times, Milgard said the issue wasn't covered. Instead of walking away or blaming the manufacturer, Richard stood behind the job. He paid out of his own pocket to replace the windows again -- including tearing out stucco, redoing drywall, repainting -- everything. That kind of integrity and accountability is extremely rare in construction. If you want a contractor who truly stands behind his work and treats customers the right way, call Richard. We would hire him again without hesitation. read more

I just completed an accessibility renovation project with Richard Rabin and his RGC team. To say that I am happy would be an understatement. The professionalism and skill of Richard and his entire crew made the experience pleasant and low stress. I knew that everything was taken care of and it felt as if they cared about the work and finished product as much as I did. I am a disabled veteran who hired RGC to make my home and property more accessible for me. It was important to me that I work with people who understood my needs. They took the time to educate me on all of the possible options along with sharing some ideas that I hadn't even considered. Through a long and convoluted process working with the VA to get all of the approvals Richard never wavered. Everything was done on time and on budget. The quality of the work was top notch. It felt like working with a true partner and not just hiring someone to do a job. My home is now transformed and I'm very grateful. This work that we completed as a team will not just benefit me. I also host spiritual and meditation sessions here for a larger community of people that will now get to enjoy all of the improvements. Thank you to Richard and his RGC crew. read more

We recently decided to install an elevator at home. The elevator company we chose suggested Richard to do the prep construction work. From beginning to end, everything went absolutely smoothly, on time, with workers that knew exactly what they were doing, perfect setup to protect rooms and furniture, organized, happy to answer questions and guide us on minor choices, overall an absolute delight. This experience gives us hope that a big remodel may not be a total nightmare. Thanks, Richard and crew! read more

Richard's crew was absolutely great, very skilled and trustworthy. They worked efficiently every day to complete the project which included a full kitchen and master bath remodel, whole house painting, new flooring & baseboards, and a media center. The communication was excellent. Richard responded right away when we had any questions or additional requests. I would definitely use RGC for future projects. read more

Rabin General Contracting - Kitchen remodel. - General Contractors Near Me - Newbury Park, California

Removal of bathtub install walking shower. Two bathrooms I reached out to Rabin General Construction when the other person I had done business with was difficult to get a hold of. Even after others quoted, extremely difficult to reach. I will be the first to admit that my standards are quite high and I was reluctant in trying someone new I had not either been referred to or had a previous experience with. But I decided to give Richard a call for a quote. Within minutes he reached out to me and we set up an onsite appointment to review the scope of work. From the moment I met Richard I was convinced that he ran an honest, quality company. He was thorough in his expansions, timely on his quote and extremely forthcoming with suggestions and ideas without challenging or changing the ideas he had in mind. His quote presentation for lack of a better word was top notch. We were scared that his quote would be out of the ball park. It was not. It was right in line with the other quotes we received with what we felt would be a top notch job. We signed the contract and scheduled ourselves 2 months out. Before the job Richard gave us homework of what we needed to do and get. He gave us outstanding local recommendations while still allowing the freedom to go where we wanted if we wanted. His places of business he recommended were outstanding and spoke of Richard as second to none. They were all 100% right. The job was started the day he said it would. He introduced his crew to us, explained in detail the process of what would happen each step of the way. His crew was nothing short of phenomenal. They started each day within minutes of 8:00am and wrapped up each up each day after 4:00 but before 5:00. Never ever was there a day of gap. No others jobs squeezed in. We were the focus from start to finish. Did I mention he finished the job exactly within the timeline of the scope of work regardless of our minor tweaks and add ons along the way. Everyday when his crew left the house, yard, courtyard and anything they were in contact with was spotless. Actually cleaner than they found it. They always made sure to communicate that they were leaving to ensure the home was secure. His crew was polite and considerate of our dogs and our working remote arrangements . I cannot say enough good things about the crew. Extremely polite and always wanting and doing the best job with a pride of workmanship exuding from these folks. Richard is responsive. Hours do not go by without a returned phone call, just minutes. Even when there were some hic-ups which there always is when you are busting open walls. Everything was explained in great detail where even I could understand. One minor change we did involved removing a large section of drywall. Made me extremely nervous especially when I saw the piece just put back. I already had in mind and picked out a huge picture to cover that space. I pointed out to the lead dude about my concerns and he sort of chuckled and said not to worry. After their multiple levels of layers to repair the wall I honestly cannot see any witness marks of a 3 foot by 2 foot hole in my wall. As if there never was an intrusion. I can be quick to complain and almost difficult to please, but the only complain I have is that I do not have another project lined up with him to work on. Because working with him and his crew has by far been the most rewarding experience I have ever had in working with a contractor. You will not have any of the typical nightmares working with Richard or his crew. I recommend Raven General construct on any Home project. Thank you Rabin Construction for a job well done and a confident referral to anyone that needs home remodeling read more

I'm a little late getting to the review of RG Contracting, Richard Rabin's company, who remodeled our main floor bathroom in October '24. Richard came out, measured and discussed the project and then provided an estimate for labor. We were responsible for purchasing the materials. The work included tearing out the old bathtub, tile, and fixtures. We had a newer toilet, so we kept it. He graciously picked up our the new materials at Floor and Decor because we didn't have a truck, all we had to do was make room in the garage for the tile and fixtures. The crew came to our house promptly at 8 am each day and worked hard. The bathroom is beautiful and the work is well done. I hope to use this company again for my next bathroom. Total time from tear down to completion was 3 weeks. It's just beautiful. read more

Don't sweat the small stuff. Had a leak in my water heater and was worried I'd be over charged to have it fixed. Call Richard Rabin and he came over right away, no wait. Thankfully the leak was the connection and not the water heater. The job was done on the spot and at an extremely fair price!!! I have always had great work and service from Rabin General contracting. It will continue to be my go to for big and small projects read more

We used Rabin General Contracting to remove horrid acoustic ceilings, remove our 40 year old fluorescent tube lighting in our kitchen and add LED recessed lighting throughout the main floor, as well as repair drywall cracks. Richard and his team were meticulous and treated our home with respect. We are thrilled with the results. We highly recommend hiring him for any home projects. read more

Richard was great! I used him to replace rotted wood under the front windows on a rental I own and he also discovered some additional rot in the overhead porch beams. He sent me pictures and a revised estimate and waited for my approval, but went to work on the original job. Everything was done within two days! Beautiful work and perfect paint match. I really appreciated him working with me with pictures when I was about 45 minutes away and couldn't get there to look in person. Highly recommended! read more

Renovated my condo last spring before I bought it. His team installed the L bracket in my upstairs bathroom the wrong way, which in turn caused a bunch of water damage and mold. Cost just over $500 to repair. Reached out to the owner and he said he would compensate me but to wait a couple of months. It's been over 6 months and still nothing. I've called him and texted him recently and he said if I provided him with the invoice and check( both of which I provided to him)he would compensate me for the damages. Still nothing from them in terms of compensation and I've find a plethora of other things that are big issues that they over looked or half assed. At this point I'll be moving forward with a claim to the BBB and small claims if necessary. DO NOT USE this company read more

Two thumbs up for Rabin General Contracting! Richard did a remodel on one of my bathrooms and I'm planning on having him do more. It was a pleasant experience from beginning to end. Richard is the best contractor that I have ever dealt with. He honest and has vast knowledge which made me feel confident going forward. The workmanship was great, he was always there when he said he would be. That is huge for me. I had past nightmares where previous contractors just stop coming for a while and the job sits. That is not how's Richard works. He tells you when he can start and he stands by what he says and finished ahead of time!!! I don't write many reviews, but I felt compelled to share my experience. Thank you again Rich. read more

Everyone has a horror story about a contractor they've used in the past but you can put an end to that particular nightmare by hiring Richard and his crew. In all of my years in business and as a homeowner I have NEVER dealt with a more competent and professional company. They stayed within their quote, started the project on the day they said they would, showed up on time everyday, didn't leave for the day until they cleaned up after themselves and after the initial down payment never asked for a dime until the project was done to my complete satisfaction. They are simply the best! read more

Richard and his crew were professional and timely. Richard always answerd all of my questions without delay. I've already recommended him to a neighbor. Everything was very straight forward when dealing with him, which made the process a lot easier. Thanks Richard! read more
