Throughout the job, he kept me updated every step of the way and even handled all the application work through the official dashboard, making the process completely hassle-free. What I really appreciated was his attention to detail and organization--he uploaded photos of the work, along with all permits and documentation, into a Dropbox folder for me to keep as permanent records. Unlike some contractors who simply manage from a distance, Rony was on site with his crew, actively working and always willing to explain the details of what they were doing. The project was completed without any issues from the inspector, and his team left my space cleaner than when they arrived. Rony combines professionalism with hands-on expertise, and it truly shows in the quality of his work. I highly recommend giving him a call--you'll be in good hands.

After speaking to a rep each time, and each person unnecessarily asking me for all my information over and over again, (which they already had on file -- I know this because the second time I called the rep confirmed all the info I gave them to me) no one still ever got back to me. Literally 6 call attempts over 3 days (Mon,Tues,Wed) trying to potentially give them a substantial peice of business, no one ever got back. Very low quality communication and customer service.

I first interacted with Foundation Technology in 2017. We had an issue uncovered during our home…read moreinspection that not only involved aspects of the foundation but a slider installed beneath our two-car garage, to a walkable crawl space ("basement"). The door was not framed in by the previous owner, who merely wedged it in on the back side of our garage. A project manager initially proposed adding support piers on the inside near the door but the wall wasn't going to be reinforced so we didn't hire. Meanwhile, we had Window World and similar companies out who would not address the slider, either, until it was framed. Then the pandemic hit so we put the job on the back burner. In 2022 we made progress after the owner personally came out to do the walk through. He gave us a good impression and a better solution for the door -- but we had much work to do to get the area prepped. When at last we were ready in 2024, we received the same contract as was originally offered (but with many new "service fees"). It should have been a clue that it took months to make sure it read correctly, but we were reassured given he had plans bring in an engineer. Big mistake. We should have hired the engineer to work directly for us. Next thing we know the steel framing we had been told we would need because nothing else would physically fit in the space had been replaced with cutting into the joists beneath our attached garage to make way for a small 3.5" wood header. On Day One, Foundation Technology workers knocked holes in unrelated areas of drywall and claimed the sill plate was wrong so, FYI, even after repairs we can't use our garage to park our cars! The reason we hired in the first place was to regain use of our garage, which had been flagged during the sale on account of this improperly installed slider and, second, with the intent of hiring Foundation Technology to do an earthquake retrofit, which we qualified for with a CA program last year. Ultimately, we ran out of time to enroll in the State lottery program (Brace + Bolt) because the owner never provided a quote despite inquiring a full year in advance of State approval. He also promised to quote us for the sill plate issue that was never flagged in years worth of efforts to obtain repair quotes until after we were under contract. He failed to give us a quote for that too. When we first questioned in November how our job so radically simplified after numerous site visits, access to our original architectural plans and having been told it would require exterior excavation, grading and steel framing only to end up with standard wood framing, instead of offering a "mutually agreed upon change order", as per his contract terms, the owner had a meltdown and began threatening a lien on us even though we were paid up for deposit, engineering and what had been completed to that point. We were NOT overdue on the payment schedule but nonetheless he prevailed upon my spouse in December -- saying he wouldn't come back and complete the job otherwise. Meanwhile, we kept reiterating that we wanted an "off the shelf" size replacement door. The sizing was not confirmed by Foundation Tech until earlier this year -- a custom size that set us back a huge amount of time and money given it took four months to manufacture and deliver. At this point, we are 95 percent paid up for a project that started in October and still isn't complete. We hope and pray Foundation Technology will have the integrity to address our concerns because we now fully anticipate the work will be flagged in the event we retrofit or sell our home. We spent YEARS trying to line up competent help, stressing that repairs must be to code, and still we can't park in our garage after nearly $40K to repair the prior owner's DIY damage? In December we had a walkthrough with the owner of a civil engineering firm who flagged incorrect aspects of the work. This concurred largely with Foundation Tech's own engineer prior to Thanksgiving. That engineer reviewed photos we supplied and also commented that when he was hired to draw up the plans he was NOT told that the slider sat below an attached garage. He also claimed he was never asked to provide plans for steel, either, even though Foundation Technology's 2022/23 proposals also called for steel framing! He said he would go back and check his load calculations but having concluded it was a "misunderstanding" he urged us to talk to the company owner directly. Instead, Foundation Technology ghosted us over these concerns. (Their sub-contracted engineer emailed once in November to claim his plans will not require any changes and that's it.) So here we are, June 2025, stuck between a rock and a hard place: Continue pleading with the owner to do the right thing upon return to install the door. Get the State Contractor's License board involved knowing we no longer have the funds to hire someone else to fix Foundation Technology's non-code compliant work. Or lawyer up.

I though my wife posted the review, just saw that it was still pending. We would wholeheartedly…read morerecommend Alex to anyone as good business deserves more business! Our project was a big project, to us at least. We bought a duplex and took it down to the bones and made it into a single family house in LA. We have heard horror stories of our friends remodel stories and did not want to fall into that trap; as a result we interviewed 11 contractors/companies for our project. The estimates were all over the place! Enter All install - Alex was very through with his questions, he saw our plans (My wife's friend is an Architect, so we had rough plans) made recommendations and challenged us on the flow. We were impressed that he was thinking for us and putting his experience to guide us. e was # 5th contractor at the time we spoke to 6 more and none of them made recommendations that Alex made. After a couple of Months of deliberation over our sketches and re-meeting some contractors, we felt confident Alex/All Install was the one! We signed the contract with him. Alex was very punctual and courteous all in all Alex is AWSOME, his knowledge & demeanor is very professional and patient. He takes the time to fully understand the issues and pain points that as a new homeowner helps quite a bit. The Construction lasted 8 Months and everything was on schedule. There were times when things were a bit behind, but mostly because we had made changes to the original design, or had a better idea as we saw the design come to life. We have attached a few ics for you to see before and after. Complete teardown of the duplex and now we have: - 3 Bedrooms - 3 Bathrooms - Kitchen - Laundry Room - Dining area - Living room - Study - Front and back yard. Fast Forward - 1 year later - We had called alex with some minor issues, he came himself to see and told us that he will take care of it, and it was all covered under All Install warranty!! Did not upsell or charge us a dime. That is a true professional! We had a great, on-time, on-budget house project!!! For our next real estate remodel/construction needs we can't think of anyone except Alex. Period. See the pics, the proof is in there of his work.

(Check out the before and after shots below) I can't say enough amazing and great things about Alex at All Install. He is the best Contractor that I have ever come across. Honest, hard working, dependable, thorough, detail oriented, kind, friendly, clean cut. That covers the basics. His company was such a great discovery for us. We purchase a home in September and decided to renovate the entire house except for two of the three bathrooms. It was a BIG job. Alex came out to our house for a FREE walkthrough of our home and listened intently to all of our crazy ideas and plans. He was so considerate and enthusiastic, which REALLY made us feel comfortable as we were total newbies with this being the first home that we had ever purchased. Alex spent about 2 hours with us. It was amazing. A few days later he gave us the estimate for basically redoing the entire house and lets just say it was WAY, WAY less than the other two estimates we got! We thought it was too good to be true!! It wasn't! Alex came through for us in every way! He even hung the TV's on the walls for us at no extra fee. He said it was his "House warming gift to us" We ended up using Alex and the great guys at All Install and the work got started immediately. The guys were consistent and never missed a day of work. We were never left wondering where are these guys or any of those horror stories that you hear about Contractors in Los Angeles. We did A LOT of work to our home. We basically had Alex Renovate (and help Design at no additional fee) the entire home. It was a BIG job. We couldn't be happier with the final result. If you need a contractor and you want a solid, dependable and extremely capable guy, do yourself a favor and call Alex at All Install. After you meet him I know that he will be your choice as he was for us. It will be the first and best decision you will make in your home perfect!

Brandon reassured me that there are no structural concerns, then took the time to explain how the supports under the house work, and why I might notice uneven places in the flooring. He did not try to sell me on anything, and did not charge me for the consultation. He gave me a ballpark estimate if I ever decide to do optional earthquake bracing, in a no-pressure manner; he was very clear that it's not a necessity. I'm so grateful for local Burbank businesses that offer their expertise to our community. Thank you!

LICENSE SUSPENDED: Avoid This Contractor: Failed to Comply with CSLB Arbitration Award…read more I am updating this review to warn other homeowners to check the California Contractors State License Board (CSLB) records before hiring LA Structural. As of March 2026, their license has been officially suspended due to their failure to comply with a legally binding arbitration award. On October 22, 2024, LA Structural requested and collected full payment for the second contract (permit acquisition for all work listed in the first contract) before any permit-related work began. Note: This is a violation. Despite full payment on November 26, 2024, none of the required permit finalizations occurred as promised, and the contractor stopped all permit-related work. Required tasks--such as coordinating inspections, correcting the soil compaction report rejected by LADBS, and managing final permit approvals--were not performed by LA Structural and were left entirely to me. I spent the following five months working directly with LADBS and city inspectors to complete these tasks. During those five months, I identified two defective areas of work. First, the soil compaction report was rejected due to LA Structural's circumvention of requirements. LA Structural hired a deputy instead of a third-party geotechnical engineer, bypassing the grading inspector's requirement and misleading me as the client after charging an additional fee for this engineer and report in November 2024. Consequently, in February 2025, Inspector Bonvouloir officially rejected the report. Later, Clark Inspections--the subcontractor hired by LA Structural--emailed me stating that LA Structural planned to use their in-house engineer to revise the soil compaction report, again attempting to bypass the requirement. I ultimately had to redo the soil compaction report through a licensed geotechnical engineer and resubmit it, after which it passed the city's review. The second defective work involved the drainage pipe and was documented in the CSLB investigation report. After 13 months of CSLB mediation, investigation, and site inspection, a mandatory arbitration hearing took place on January 22, 2026. The arbitrator ruled in my favor and ordered payment within 30 days. LA Structural failed to comply, resulting in their current license suspension. Notably, prior to the issuance of the stipulated arbitration award letter, the contractor repeatedly attempted to have me sign his own private settlement agreement--non-CSLB documents with terms that went beyond what had been agreed upon at the hearing. Don't sign it! I later learned that this is a common tactic contractors use to remove CSLB from the matter. Per CSLB instruction, I filed a claim with their bond company, Jet Insurance, to recover the awarded payment. Despite their written commitment on February 11, 2026, to issue payment if the contractor failed to meet the CSLB deadline, Jet Insurance instead extended the deadline to March 27, 2026, stating that "the contractor intends to make payment by this week." LA Structural failed to meet this extended deadline as well. On March 30, 2026, I received an email from Jet Insurance stating, "Attached is the Final Release and Assignment of Claim agreement, relating to the claim...In order to issue payment for this claim, Jet Insurance Company requires the attached agreement to be reviewed, physically signed and all pages returned." It has taken 16 months to recover my funds for their abandoned and defective work since their collection of full payment. Based on my understanding, when a bond company pays out a claim, the contractor's license remains suspended until specific legal and financial requirements are met for reinstatement.
