We highly recommend South Coast Developers Inc....here is why, Our family, excitingly purchased a townhome last year (August 2019) in Newport Beach that needed almost a full remodel including kitchen cabinets, flooring, toilets, sink, paint and more. Our usual go-to place in finding great service in a referral is on a Facebook Page called Chino Hills Connection, a page for our city to use in resourcing. The post mentioned Ralph and South Coast Developers Inc. several times by people I would highly trust so we scheduled an estimate with him. Ralph, the owner showed up professionally on time and did an estimate for us. He had it back on the exact time he promised. We did not experience this same level of integrity on several other contractor visits. Ralphs estimate also came when he promised and was very fair according to what our needs were and in comparison, to the 5 other quotes we had so we felt confident with hiring them. The entire project was done in phases and payment was collected in phases as well, which made it feel fair and trusting. We also liked that we were updated on the work being done as they went since we were not be living there during construction. After seeing the project was going well in the first couple of weeks our family was able to sit back and let them do the work without feeling worried about how it was going. We also loved how Ralph was able to give us design and layout ideas to help us end up with the best results, the fireplace and mantle was his idea and came out amazing! Ralph stayed in tune with our families' needs the entire time and we never felt he was trying to be dishonest, unfair or shady...unlike what you sometimes hear contractors can do (hence the show "Rescue My Renovation"). We had a goal to really stay as close as we could to the budget since this townhome was purchased for a weekend get-away place and eventually possibly a rental. We can happily say the only thing that really took us out of the budget was a wall that we knew by Ralph ahead of time might reveal some plumbing and wiring and might need extra addressing, as well as a couple of upgrades we decided to add. There was never any crazy surprises. We are very thankful for this! On the final reveal, I cried like a baby because of how great it looked and how effortless the project went. This remodel from top to bottom was truly streamline, effortless and a successful remodel and we have to give credit to Ralph and South Coast Developers Inc. Totally! Our family has now been in the townhome on the weekends for over a month and still pinch ourselves how great it looks. Ralph even delivered the project completed to us EARLY so we could spend Chrismas there!!! Thank you, Ralph and the South Coast Developers Inc. TEAM for all you did to make this remodel one of the greatest experiences we could have asked for. We plan to tell everyone about you guys!!! read more

Highly recommend for all your remodel & construction needs. Used them for ADU build and home remodel and can't say enough of the great service, responsiveness, timeliness, and quality work I received. Take the worry away from construction projects and hire South Coast Developers - very pleased! read more

Great team and awesome quality work and communication Ralph and his team are on top of their projects and make sure quality work is delivered read more

If you're building an ADU, call Ralph! With his help, we converted our garage into a one-bedroom/one-bathroom apartment-we love how it turned out. From the get-go, I appreciated the professionalism of his detailed list of everything included. He offered a fair price-in fact it was less than some other companies claiming to specialize in ADU's. He worked with our budget and architect's plans (which were a little off but he thankfully corrected them), and we passed all the city inspections. The kitchen in the unit exceeded our expectations and the bathroom shower tile work is lovely. Our tenants commented on what a high-quality build it was compared to other places they have lived. He did double insulation on the shared wall with the house and there is virtually no noise between the two units which we are so happy about. Ralph and his team followed through with all of our requests until we were happy with the results. They were a pleasure to work with- we highly recommend them! read more

The owner did such a fabulous job on my window installation. It will pass the city inspection with an ease. He offer to do extra work for me that has nothing to do with our signed agreement and helps me to repair items that Design and window mess up in. His price was very fair. This is the company to use for any window and door installation read more

Came out to my home. Rushed the estimate & never heard from Ralph again. We communicated a few times before the estimate, but should not have wasted my time if you weren't interested in the job. Unprofessional. read more

Just this summer we decided to turn the upstairs den into a guest suite and after researching we decided on Ralph with South Coast Developers. His quote was reasonable and detailed so we knew what would be covered and what wouldn't be. The project went smoothly and Ralph was easy to reach if we had any concerns or questions.... which is a big plus in my books. We are completely satisfied with the work that he did! Recently, my husband and I decided to add on to the back of the house.... needless to say, I reached out to Ralph, and as expected I received an immediate response.. His crews are currently working on my home again and I couldn't be happier with the progress. I have and will continue to recommend Ralph and South Coast Developers to my friends and family. Thank's again Ralph for an amazing job, and keep up the great work .!!!! read more

I've used South Coast Developers on two separate occasions. Both experiences were beyond amazing. The first time, my wife and I decided to build on a piece of property that was left to me from the estate of my great aunt. My wife is a licensed real-estate broker, and we had originally decided to build a single-family home to rent. After we spoke with Ralph, and he showed us how much space we had and the different things we could do with that space, we decided to build 2 units. Ralph was extremely helpful and professional. He mapped out every detail and walked us through every step. We were immediately comfortable with him, and we knew we had made the right choice. Needless to say, we decided to use South Coast Developers again in the remodel of our own home. We bought our house in Diamond Bar as a fixer-upper. We bought it for the location. The plan was to build the unit(s) on our first project first, rent them, and use the income to remodel our own home. We lived in it for several years in the same condition we purchased it, and it was a challenge to say the least. So when it came time to do our remodel and add an addition, we wanted the best! We sacrificed and waited for over 4 years, and we had a vision for our home and our family. Ralph and his team picked up on that vision immediately. He treated our home like it was his own, and we knew that we were in good hands. We also had some special requirements. Our in-laws live with us, and we wanted to add an in-law apartment off the back of the house. Not only did we want it to be spacious enough for them, but we wanted it to be tailored to their individual needs. They are both severely disabled and have a difficult time climbing stairs and walking up steep sloped pathways. We needed to push back the large hill of dirt and rocks behind our home to make room, and build a retaining wall. Ralph helped us with all aspects of the projects, including permits and plans. After we had everything ready to go, the implantation and process was fast! We were amazed at how quickly his team worked. Ralph responded to every email and every phone call in a timely and courteous manner. Now we have our dream home! Thank you South Coast Developers for your professionalism and assistance with both projects. We couldn't be more pleased! read more

Amazing customer service and work!! I had water damage due to a flood and needed drywall, flooring, painting and some cabinets fixed. I then decided to do the flooring through my entire house. The minute I called Ralph he was on it. He came over looked at what needed to be done, measured everything etc and I had a quote. He brought all the samples to me and helped me decide what would fit my family best. As soon as decisions were made the workers started. They were all great!! They were on time, friendly and knew exactly what to do. We hit a couple speed bumps during the process, but Ralph was right there to suggest what we could do and fixed the problem right away!! You never had to guess on anything with this company or Ralph, it was all taken care of. THANK YOU for the great work. read more

I have used South Coast Developers on numerous occasions for several different remodels. The entire staff top to bottom is great. The construction team did a great job on the additions and the design people were very helpful in picking out the customization that I wanted. I will be using them again in the future for any other home additions for remodels that come up read more

I have been working with Ralph and Daniel for over 6 months on various retail TI projects throughout Orange County and LA County. They are very cost effective, reliable, and easy to work with. They are now my go to contractors for any upcoming projects that I have for our business. Thank you Ralph and Daniel! read more

I hired this company to renovate my home. I was very displeased with the quality of their work. I felt like their workers were not skilled in the trades they were doing. Drywall patches were poorly done and visible, plumbing work leaked and made a hole in my ceiling, shutters were hung crooked, and the list goes on and on. Worst of all, when asked to correct these issues, they kept making promises to come back but never did. The company made a lot of promises, but did not deliver. read more

After about four months and quotes from at least 8 different contractors my husband and I finally decided on one to help us with our renovation on our living room and kitchen. Unfortunately, he ended up bailing on us. We were pretty bummed out and lost a little bit of motivation with our renovation. Finally a friend recommended Ralph for our project. Ralph came to our house for a consultation and we loved his personality right away. Ralph is very respectful of our time and ideas. He returns our texts/calls within a very reasonable time frame. He has lots of great ideas. His company is very discreet with the renovation. You wouldn't know our house was being renovated if you were to drive by the house. There's no trash on the side of the house or big trucks parked in front of the house. And they are very organized with their trash. My husband and I strongly believe in things happen for a reason. Things didn't work out with the other contractor was a huge blessing in disguise. Ralph truly is a blessing for our renovation. We trust his judgment and ideas. We see progress every single day. We've been 100% satisfied from day 1. Couldn't be happier. We are beyond thankful for everything that Ralph and his company do for us. Their work is AMAZING!!!! read more
