    Original bathroom photo
    Amelia N.

    My husband and I chose to have Gal and his crew do our bathroom renovation after being incredibly impressed with his work replacing our floor a year ago. Being repeat clients, we knew to expect great things, but we are again absolutely blown away by the amount of prep, care, and precision the Reef Builders team put in. We had very particular requests for our accent placement as well as specific layouts for textured vs non textured tile, and the guys matched it all up beautifully. They provide a great balance between recommending certain placements but not being overly opinionated when it comes to matters of taste. For example, when it comes to functionality and logistics, they'll always tell you the proper way things should be done; but if it's about personal preference, they'll weigh in with what they've seen work well in the past but will remind you they you're the boss creatively. Gal's crew, Javi and Ernie, are also extremely kind, efficient, and careful in the house. They lay tarps down along the work path to protect the floor and work very well independently, so your time isn't taken up. Yet, when it comes to the important stuff, they ask questions to make sure they're doing everything exactly how you'd like it. We left for a week on a trip while they worked and nothing went wrong while we were gone (in fact, we were away while they did our floor a year ago as well!) They really treat it like it's their own home in terms of how cautious they are and we trust them completely with our lockbox code and key. From quote to materials to demo to project completion, the process was very smooth. Gal also knew a bunch of experts like a carpenter and glass installer so we could get good rates on custom fixtures like the shower and vanity. They also are having us monitor the grout over the next month or two since it's unavoidable to have slight cracking as everything settles -- after which they'll come out and do touch ups as part of the included process -- because Gal never cuts corners. To be honest, I am in the construction industry myself as an engineer, and I know a lot of field guys who would be happy to do this work as well for us -- but Gal has been such a pleasure to work with, and has yielded such great results, that I'm sure we'll be coming back time and time again for our future renovations. Thank you Gal, Javi, and Ernie for a beautiful new bathroom!

    Reef builders laid the floor tile in my kitchen. I contacted a few businesses for estimates and Gal was responsive and able to come in person to review the scope of the work. I knew I was going to select Gal after our initial meeting. He was organized, honest and pricing was reasonable. Plus, I saw pictures of previous jobs and the work spoke for itself. Gal provided an estimated date they could start the work and timing which worked with our schedule. Working with Reef Builders exceeded my expectations. Gal had great communication skills throughout the project. We discussed upfront what to expect and during the job he updated me regularly on the progress/timing so that there were no surprises. Gal recommended laying the tile straight vs brick patterned based on the the size of kitchen. We took his advice and I could not be more pleased with the decision. The tile looks great and works for the space. His team did a beautiful job and I would not hesitate to use Reef Builders for future projects.

    Gal the project manager and his crew did fantastic work! We needed to tile our master bathroom which had previously been carpet, and we needed the job done quickly since we were moving in the following week. Not only was Gal quick to respond and mobilize his crew, but he was able to get the whole thing done while we were on a trip that week. Despite us not being there, Gal communicated everything efficiently and thoroughly. We FaceTimed us to show us the state of the subfloor, and ASK us if we wanted to replace it, rather than just telling us it was bad to increase the price of the job. He was honest that they were in decent condition, and advised to replace them but did not pressure us to. On that note, he had come prepared before the job even started with wood planks, the flexible concrete, and all other materials that would be required. Then, when he discovered the wooden planks were not exactly the right size, he had the crew go replace them all, because this is a team that does not settle for anything less than perfect! The work itself looks awesome. They matched the tile pattern really nicely and got the grout really narrow but still with room to breathe. There is nearly no dip from the tile to the carpet in the surrounding rooms and the floor is very level. They also reinstalled the toilet on gratis since they forgot to mention that ahead of time, and didn't upsell us on that after we had agreed upon the price. He was also very clear with change orders and their additional cost when we decided to replace the sub floor, all which he gave us an estimate of before we signed any contract. Finally, they wrapped the entire walkway from the garage to the bathroom so that our carpet and floors stayed safe. Overall a really efficient and friendly team that we will be working with in the future!

    We hired Gal and his team to replace our bathroom floor tile. We had previously had our bathroom renovated by another contractor who made a lot of mistakes and rarely showed up to oversee workmanship. When our bathroom flooded, the water went through our original tiles and caused water damage below, so we needed the floor tiles fully replaced. Gal is professional, patient, and fully explained every possibility that could happen during construction. Gal explained what had gone wrong with the previous installation and how to prevent future issues. Gal was there every step of the way, which was a really nice change from our previous contractor! The job included: carefully removing our custom double vanity, removing the toilet and finding the source of the leak + fixing it to prevent future water damage, removing the water damaged tiles, replacing the cement boards below and applying redgard waterproofing, laying the tile/grout, and reinstalling the vanity and toilet/doing touchups to the baseboards. This was all done in 3-4 days total and the work is immaculate. His employees were friendly and efficient. One of my favorite things: one of his workers double checked with me that they had the correct grout and paint colors before they started grouting and painting the baseboards. This might seem like a simple thing, but our previous contractor and team used the wrong grout color and wrong paint every step of the renovation. With Reef Builders I feel I really got what I paid for- the work is excellent. Also, Gal offered to come back if any issues came up. It's great having a contractor who stands by their work. I would trust him with future projects too.

    We've hired Reef Builders to convert our garage to an ADU. Gal was always available to answer any questions and concerns from start to finish and was very helpful. They scheduled free estimate, came out and showed us past projects, samples, and all information we needed to know before starting. Our project was completed by the time frame we have scheduled. everything turned out fantastic and added much more value to our home. Highly recommended!!!

    We just finished our bathtub conversion for our parent's bathroom. Gal and his team did a great job.

    Our New Kitchen!:)!
    Rachel D.

    Gal and his team did an incredible job remodeling my kitchen. They opened up several walls and turned a cramped and dark L-shaped kitchen into a light and bright open concept area with a gorgeous huge island centerpiece. It was exactly what I had envisioned and Gal ensured the design and budget were in sync the entire way! There was a great team of workers who were friendly and respectful and an overall pleasure to have in my home for the duration of the project. I highly recommend Gal and his team for any of your remodeling projects. If you are looking for trustworthy, reliable, and good work look no further. One of the things that really sets them apart is the responsiveness. Any questions or concerns are promptly addressed- they will call/text you back quickly to make sure everything is right!

    It might sounds corny, but it's true- when you deal with Reef Builders you're treated like family. We wanted to have a quick refreshing change to our powder room. We met Gal after few interviews with other companies. Gal performed professional, excellent onsite project management and did a great job of really listening to what we wanted! Thank you Gal.

    New wall
    Yuval T.

    We had an old wallpaper installed on our dining room wall which we wanted to update and give it a fresh look. Instead of wallpaper Reef's crew installed new designed and finished wood slabs to make the room look more modern. We worked with Gal. since day one he was super communicative and punctual, job was done on time and the finished product look just as I wanted, clean and spotless! Highly recommend! Thank you Gal!!!

    Nicole W.

    We've just finished our master bathroom renovation with Gal and his team- our experience with Reef Builders has been impressive! Gal checked in with us daily to make sure all is clear and everything done by schedule and for our satisfaction. We did electrical and plumbing work, installing new tiles, new toilet and vanity- complete bathroom. Their office and staff worked effectively and fast. Great company to do business with and count on! Highly recommended.

    HAPPY CLIENT HERE! We hired Gal and Reef builders about 2 months ago for our kitchen and living room renovation. Process is long and lots of money is involved, it'll probably be the biggest remodel I'll ever do in this house and I waited for that so long. After interviewing several companies Gal and Reef stood out. Gal has communication and listening skills that I've never seen in my life (from a contractor) he really does care that Me and my family will be be happy in the end, that made us feel super lucky and calm. Like Any construction project not everything is perfect but Gal knows how to smooth things out and continue working with minimum haggle. Special thanks to Eddie the carpenter, Eshed the tile guy and of course to Gal for bringing our dream into reality!!!!!!! Looking forward for our upcoming projects and will HIGHLY recommend this company to my family and friend (already did ). Thanks much, The Daniali's

    Great experience working with Gal!! Smooth communication and very detailed and professional. Highly recommended.

    New 20x40 pool with micropebbles  + new firepit area

    We were referred to Gal at Reef Builders by a friend who had them redo their kitchen. From the looks and sounds of the process it was an easy decision for us. After hiring Gal, and working side by side with him and his company - we are extremely pleased with the results. Communication was and still is always #1 and quality of work made us very happy. As far as the scope, we redid the whole backyard, added a huge pool with micro-pebbles instead of regular plaster, 2 bajas and a big spa. Added a firepit, over 2000 sqft of synthetic grass, lots of concrete and planting/green throughout. Lots of design work and details but now our backyard is our paradise. For the master we redid the whole master bathroom suite includijng a gorgeous standalone tub, and 6x7 shower with steam, new flooring, vanity etc. Extremely satisfied with Gal he made sure myself and my wife are very happy all the way till the end. They even had to come back for a couple small adjustments and prioritized it for us.

    We hired this team for a major structural renovation--adding a loft in our high-ceiling living…read moreroom, building a wet bar underneath it, and replacing our kitchen's back door and window with a beautiful bifold door. (Note: The furniture bar cabinets and library were added later on and were not part of this contractor's project). From start to finish, the entire team was extremely professional, dedicated, and highly skilled. On the very first day we met, Nir helped design a 3D view of the project that perfectly captured exactly what we had envisioned. Throughout the build, we had a weekly walkthrough with Nir to check if we had any questions or concerns, which kept communication incredibly clear. Elba was also an excellent project coordinator who was always available to answer our questions and keep everything on track daily. The construction crew themselves were clearly very experienced and knowledgeable; they followed our approved plans meticulously and were happy to accommodate extra requests along the way. You can truly gauge the quality of their work by the fact that every single city inspector visit passed on the first try--nothing ever had to be rescheduled or redone because everything was built perfectly to plan. Additionally, all of the finishes--from the drywalling to the trim work and paint--were done with high-quality materials and top-tier craftsmanship. Overall, it was a great experience, and we highly recommend them!

I was first referred to Preferred Builders by my tax preparer, Happily, my first repair/remodel turned out wonderfully so I immediately started a remodel on my own home. Scope of work: remove all the carpeting in the house and install laminate plank flooring in those areas. The travertine flooring in the entry, kitchen and hallway had large craters which collected dirt and water residue after washing. I had the floor steamed, the craters filled and the whole floor resealed. I had a gasline installed in the kitchen and a new gas oven installed. I also had a complete bathroom remodel which included removing a huge jacuzzi tub and installing an elegant and safe walk in shower. For the bathroom Nir listened to my concerns and needs and then gave me two 3-D renderings of my options. Elba was fabulous and fast with permits, a purchase list and provided weekly job schedules and updates. I have now completed this remodel and I can't be happier. My Preferred Builders team was pure gold! I highly recommend Nir, Elba and Orel, the Foreman. Orel was caring and his experience was invaluable, Roman, (drywall, moldings, paint, flooring) Carlo (beautiful tile work) and Abnir were all professional, caring and kind. My remodel was reasonable and fast. I definitely recommend Preferred and I already have.

    Summary = DO NOT WORK WITH THIS COMPANY! We worked with Alon during the pandemic on a home remodel…read moreof our kitchen, 2 baths, plumbing and electrical improvements, and paint. Alon was friendly and nice and the work was eventually completed after a roller coaster of a process that took 6 months. I had been sitting on this review after living with the remodel for over a year. I finally decided to post this review due to some recent upsetting discoveries. I hire a general contractor to manage coordination with sub contractors and to check on their quality. There were issues with both management and quality! Minor consolidation was that they at least finished. On the management side, they subcontracted the structural work, plumbing, and electrical. Something happened with the plumbing/structural contractor part way through and was replaced and we were warned not to engage with them if they come to me for payment (strange). Then they fired a sub contractor to the electrical sub contractor (who damaged a lot of the new electrical wires). They had a payment dispute with the electrical subcontractor, who later tried to put a lein on my home. To their credit, they did take care of it. Quality and attention to detail was not great. After dry wall and paint, I found lots of little divots in the wall because of poor patch work. Paint kept on peeling off the repainted doors and required several repairs. After several rounds of getting them to come back to fix things, we got gave up. A part was not installed correctly on our new pocket doors; instead of taking off the trim and installing things correctly, they installed an ugly fix on top of the trim. I was looking around the attic recently and was shocked to find hidden issues. Many of the electric wires that they fixed with twisted wires and electrical tape not enclosed in boxes. Some electrical boxes were not attached. Some nuturals were twisted together without a wire nut and it got loose at some point causing open nuturals and broken outlets. None of my my bathroom vents were connected even though I explicitly asked before it they can double check. The vent duct work was laying next to the fan. One of the fan duct flaps still had the factory stickers to remind the installer to remove before installing the duct! I will not trust them ever again.

Alon became a valuable consultant and a person we could really upon to be at our home on a regular basis and when we needed him. All of the people who worked on our project were professional, courteous, and dedicated to making our dreams come true. For example the remodel of our stairway was in the hands of a true artist who would not end his days at our home until every detail was completed to both his and our satisfactions. With out any hesitation I highly recommend Alon and Pride Construction and Remodeling. We are already planning our next project!

He certainly made us want to work with MY Home Builders as a trustworthy company if we can pull this project together because he specifically addressed the myriad of details. We so appreciated this rather than rushing partway into the project and then either be told "oops here's an expensive problem" we didn't discuss (we've had that happen on three projects with other companies that went outrageously over budget), or get shut down by an inspector after we've paid for a very expensive building permit and ripped into the building.

He replied to questions quickly, gave realistic expectations and gave great feedback. Our first week he set up a group access on the notes app. As I found different interests in lighting, tile, flooring, etc. I'd add links to the notes. He'd make important observations and suggestions helping me before I made purchase commitments. This saved so much time and allowed for quick communication. Was a brilliant idea. Liron also works closely with Maya, a truly incredible Forperson. She really, really knows her stuff. No nonsense, get it done. It's very difficult to remodel your home but I had a team of experts to help.
