    Side backyard to garage after
    Tamara E.

    One day while considering having our backyard project completed, we were visited by Lonnie, a representative for Specialty Builders Inc. Upon hubby saying we were interested in working with his company, we were visited late that same day by project manager Omer (aka David.) Upon entering our home, Omer (David) was friendly, professional, and clearly explained the building process to us. After walking around our backyard space and taking measurements, we requested have a walkway built from our driveway to the backyard using stone pavers, gravel and plants for our sloped backyard, and something to be done with our spacious side backyard. We appreciated that Omer (David) shared our excitement about our backyard project and was very responsive regarding any questions or concerns we had regarding our backyard project and responded promptly to our text messages. We were excited and surprised when construction began the next day and were impressed by how quickly the construction team took care of weeds which plagued hubby for months. Whenever told Omer (David) In times that Omer (David) was unavailable, he sent his assistant Moses to physically come and provide status updates on our backyard project. After a full week of work by Omer's construction team, our backyard project has been completed and we are elated over the final result. We would definitely work with Omer (David) and Moses again in the future and would also recommend Speciality Builders Inc to anyone looking to beautify their backyard space.

    Pile of materials dropped off at my home while I'm on vacation
    Nadine C.

    We came across this company by a sales person walking around door to door. We did need work done in our backyard so we were happy to get an estimate on the work. A bit pricey, but overall my husband and I agreed to get the work done. Our estimate was done my Omer (David) who was a very pushy salesman and a bit rude. Called me a "cold" woman. This was the first red flag. The work on our yard was to be done 2 weeks after we signed the paperwork since we were leaving on vacation. My dog sitter calls me 2 days later saying that there's piles of gravel and dirty at my front driveway. We never agreed to have this dropped off at my home 2 weeks early to inconvenience myself and my neighbors. We did not even get to enjoy our vacation as I was worried that my neighbors would call the city and get us fined. Thankfully the work was done the weekend that we arrived home. The job was well done but the workers broke 2 sprinklers in my front yard when placing drain pipes. David was notified that these sprinklers needing fixing and we have been left on read with no call backs from either him or their customer service department in over 3 weeks. The yard workers did not speak English and were drinking ON THE JOB. proof was captured by my ring cameras. I do not recommend. Please find a legit company with good customer service. UPDATE: Nema their customer service rep reached out to us and swiftly got our sprinkler fixed. A really nice guy. I wish our entire interaction with this company was thru him as he has been the only one helpful.

    Our beautiful new walkin shower!

    We recently had Specialty Builders redo part of our bathroom, consisting of ripping out the old shower and tub and constructing a new large walk-in shower. There were a few hiccups and changes, but overall Adam and Mikey and the crew of guys that worked on our home were respectful and pleasant to work with! I would recommend them. We are very happy with our new shower!

    Thomas and Tal did such a great job on my front yard. I had paving put in and a new drought resistant yard. There crew was excellent and everything I asked for was delivered.

    Highly recommend Specialty Builders! They were very easy and accommodating to work with! Caroline & Jacob were a huge help and were available for whatever we needed! Our backyard was done in less than a week, they worked very fast and efficiently, and the cost was very reasonable. They have a program that you can qualify for if you need help with finances! We'll definitely use them again for future work and would recommend to anyone needing landscaping.

    Poor communication
    Amber S.

    Where do i beginning this is my second review the last one i posted i was asked to take it down once the work they failed to do they finally got completed so there's that. This project started DECEMBER 15 and didn't get done till i wrote the 1st review and they completed the protect MARCH 5. This company's communication skills are very poor we got our work started and they told us it was gonna be done one day then no one would show up or say anything. Work finally got done besides the flowers we were promised 6 plants in total. My husband would get left on read and it took us a few weeks to even get a response only because i wrote the 1st review. the initial seller (NOAH) didn't even respond to my husband his assistant (KIM) was rude because after my husband texted her she called once and couldn't answer and used that as an excuse when they spoke on the phone again she said "i tried contacting you" mind you she only called once after not answering his text and even after that she didn't answer till the 1st review. When they finally sent someone for the flowers they sent an old man with his white poodle in the car with no idea what flowers we even asked for. He also asked if we were going to plant them we were shocked and he asked to take down the review. This old man went to Lowe's and came back with our plants when he gave back he planted our flowers and just left the dirt on top of the newly decorative rocks. We paid for turf,decorative rocks concrete and flowers. So far concrete has been the only thing they didn't mess up on for now. The Turf they use is really cheap 5 months in of washing and rinsing everyday spending water which was the whole point not to do it still has a strong urine smell that has been impossible to wash out. Highly don't recommend this company cheap work for expensive pricesl.

    Front yard
    Dee U.

    Wow where do I begin. We went from dusty front yard to the best front yard on the block thanks to DAVID. Now you might be thinking oh this is just another average sales tactic me writing this review well I mean you may just have to get work done by these amazing professionals to see for your self. David did an excellent job executing the job start to finish from our vinyl floors to our front yard that is now the talk of the street! We we're very fortunate to have someone as patient as David walk through everything with me and my husband while our kids screamed and played every stepped of the way. He was very easy to communicate with and got the job done in record time!! If you are look for reliable and affordable contractors look no further this is your team!! My next home I already know who to call without a doubt! Ask for David if you want the best and greatest quality! Below are some of the before and after pictures of the front yard and vinyl flooring

He asked for another $10,000 so he could deliver them and install. I said NO and ended up giving him $5,000 more towards flooring. Cabinets come and they did not match what I had. He said they would make to match perfectly- white Quaker style. Measurements all off (smaller). The worker said they would be putting wood paneling to make up difference! Why would I want less cupboard space?? Then I overheard the worker tell other one in Spanish that he got home late night before cuz he was at Chino warehouse buying my ready-made cabinets!! What a rip-off. Fired Stan that day, had him take back his cabinets, and refund me for flooring. Got back just under $5,000 so he made $8,000 off me just to remove the fluorescent ceiling in kitchen. They left all trash in my backyard. Didn't cover anything while working so entire house was covered in dust for years. This happened about 4-5 yrs ago but I guess I was too angry to want to think or write about it until now. Stan used his Christianity to relate to me and convince me to hire him. This man is despicable.

The project included a complete home repipe, sewer line replacement, installation of a Navien tankless water heater, electrical upgrades, irrigation work, a custom wrought iron gate, kitchen updates, a complete bathroom remodel, and several exterior improvements, including our backyard and deck. The bathroom became the centerpiece of our home. We loved working with the team to create a Spanish-inspired design featuring custom tile work, a Talavera vessel sink, floating wood shelves, matte black fixtures, a frameless glass shower, and a smart toilet. They also gave our kitchen a fresh new look with cabinet refacing and a beautiful tile backsplash that transformed the space. The custom gate and backyard improvements were the perfect finishing touches. The best moments after the renovation was hosting my sister's high school graduation party in our newly renovated backyard. It was the first big family gathering in the updated space, and everyone complimented the work. Seeing our family enjoy the space made it all worth it. Jordan, Tomer, Romey and Israel did an outstanding job managing the project from start to finish!! We also want to thank Elsy! They kept us informed, answered our questions, listened to our concerns, and helped us navigate every phase of the renovation. Having a team we could trust made a huge difference; especially when you yourself cannot be home. Like any major project, there were a few bumps along the way, but what impressed us most was that We the People stood behind their work and continued working with us until everything was completed to our satisfaction! They simply make things right We truly appreciate everyone's hard work and would confidently recommend We the People to anyone looking for quality craftsmanship and a team that genuinely cares about their customers Jaime and Nicole
