We HIGHLY recommend Jonathan Ortiz Construction LLC for your construction needs. Jonathan's team…read moreis currently working on a workshop which includes plumbing (bathroom) and electrical. My perfectionist husband is extremely happy (as am I) with Jonathan's work; we inspect it daily to check on the progress. He has passed all the permit inspections so far with no issues. His company is relatively new but Jonathan and his partner Ruben have about 15 years each of experience in construction/building. If you're interested in more details about why we think he does great work, read further... - Presence: Jonathan is here almost every day and if he's not, then Ruben is - Communication: Jonathan informs us what is planned for the next few days so we always know what to expect. - Promptness: The team always shows up as expected; No no-shows and anytime there's a change of plans, we are informed of them. Even the subs come when expected. - Quality: As mentioned, my perfectionist husband is very pleased with the work. This quality and attention to detail includes the subs and is evidence by recent inspections that passed. - Trustworthy: ok, how do you meansure this--a feeling? Anyway, we trust him and his crew. - Experienced: He obviously knows the building and permit process and is experienced enough to give us some advice or ideas about products and design. He periodically asks us how we want him to handle a situation--usually cosmetic but not always--and provides the pros and cons. For example, when I was choosing an exterior door, he instructed me to look at ones without a brickmold. While brickmolds may make installation quicker, he prefers to build his own framing to ensure that it is water-tight (vs a manufactured one that may not fit exactly). - Cleans up: Tidies up before they leave each day and when they have a load of trash, takes it to the dump (vs leaving a pile in the yard).

Nick made time in his schedule to fix every problem that came up and worked wonderfully with our designer. He keep us updated with the progress and let us know as issues popped up. It was obvious to me how much pride Nick takes in his work, he really went the extra mile to make sure we were happy with everything. His subs are also great. Thank you Nick. We are so happy with the wonderful work you did

Nick Sandman did extensive work on our home, and is by far the most honest, conscientious…read morecontractor I have ever dealt with. I'm a retired builder, and know construction inside and out. There is no other contractor I would trust as much as Nick. He does the job as if he was working on his own home, for a fair price, with the kind of pride that comes from knowing what he's doing. I highly recommend him to anyone who cares about getting the highest quality craftsmanship available in this area. If you want it done right, he's the one to call.

Tim was very flexible and understanding regarding scheduling. He did a full walk through to get the details correct regarding our finish preferences and colors. He was very personable and quick to attend to any issues. We changed a few things along the way and he was happy to accommodate. Like with anything there were a few snags such as some cabinets getting painted that shouldn't have been, or a couple of rooms being painted the wrong color, or punch list items being forgotten. Most issues Tim was quick to fix even when he didn't seem happy about it, but he honored our agreement and even threw in painting our mailbox! I would absolutely recommend this company. Tim's team is great, it was a huge job in a short amount of time and we were grateful for everyone on the team that worked together to get us in the home asap.

We invited a few plumbers to assess the problem, but Jorge was the only one who came up with a creative solution to fix the drain on the porch. What could have cost us a huge headache fortunately became an easier fix than anticipated. He has a lot of experience and knowledge. I appreciate Jorge's willingness to test things out and to ensure the solution is the right one. He has also helped us by fixing a broken bathroom drain, switch out the valves for the washing machine, and another valve outside. Don't hesitate to reach out to Jorge!

He was professional, detail-oriented, and communicated clearly throughout the entire process. What impressed me most was his craftsmanship and dedication to doing things the right way--not just the easy way. Every part of the kitchen, from cabinets to countertops to lighting, was installed with precision and care. He also accommodated last minute flooring tiles change after finishing almost 50% of the work since i was not liking the tiles that I bought before .. he took them off and again put the new tiles that I shopped the same day . If you are looking for someone reliable I highly recommend him . My kitchen looks amazing because of his efforts and his ideas. It's rare to find someone who combines skill, honesty and pride in their work like this.

My bathroom exhaust fan was in dire need of replacement (it was very old and made terrible…read moresquealing noises and didn't remove steam anymore). I used Yelp to request quotes from electricians in my area and All About Electric was the first to respond (within minutes!) They quoted me a fair price, and scheduled an appointment for me. They communicated clearly via Yelp and text message which I appreciated. On the day of installation, everything went well. The electrician wore a mask and shoe covers the entire time which I really appreciated. He was professional and friendly, and most importantly did a great job replacing my old exhaust fan (my old fan was really tricky to remove and there's no way I could have gotten it out myself without a special saw, which thankfully the electrician had). My newly installed bathroom fan looks great and works much more efficiently than my old one. My husband and I are very satisfied. Highly recommend All About Electric!
