Martin did an amazing job on my garage! Highly recommend him and Clever Home. I have a tight one car garage but needed to make the most of every inch. I also had restrictions on drilling into the ceiling and wanted to do only wall installations. Martin gave me the best design and installation advice, offering options to work around each area of the garage to maximize storage. We ended up doing some large shelves medium shelves, and a slatwall installation for my sports equipment. The slatwall is my favorite and makes my garage look like REI! Precise, meticulous, honest, professional, and kind. Martin is the BEST! read more

Martin is THE MAN!! We were running out of storage real estate in our house and garage and needed a solution fast. Now with two kids, stuff just piles up. My cousin recommended The Clever Home who he used before. It was so quick and easy, and Martin is very responsive. I called him and he was able to fit me into his schedule the next week. Not only is Martin a nice guy, but he has so much knowledge about storage and the different things a homeowner can do. I purchased the overhead racks from Costco and Martin was able to install them in less than an hour. He has done over 6,000 racks in his career, which is why he can do them so fast and efficiently. I plan to do more work to my garage in the future like epoxy floors. Martin is the only person I'm calling. read more

Martin installed the NewAge garage cabinets professionally. He showed up on time, and confirmed with me how I would like the cabinets installed. He suggested mounting the cabinets on the wall, and I am glad I went with it. The clean look transformed the garage. Martin finished the work in a timely manner, and helped bundle the boxes and packing materials after he was done. It was a pleasure working with him. read more

Joseph installed a large set of NewAge cabinets and lockers for us in the garage. He's one of the best contractors I've worked with and really went above and beyond to make sure we got what we wanted. He attended to details and made great suggestions based on the situation of our garage. The end result was fantastic. After the work was done, he patiently gave me a super helpful mini-lecture when I asked him for advices on some additional work I wanted to do to the garage myself. I'm happy to recommend Joseph to anyone I know for garage work. read more

Martin did a terrific job installing our NewAge garage cabinets, slatwall, and shelving. I really appreciate his suggestion to mount them off the floor as it really makes it easier to clean and I can even store a few items down there if needed, although it does make everything a bit higher. Anyways, I'll let the photos speak for themselves.. read more

Martin's team installed my NewAge garage storage cabinets and did a thorough and professional installation. At the time of the installation he asked me if I needed screen doors for my house and coincidentally, I did need several custom retractable screen doors for my french doors and one for an 8 foot door in my kitchen. He took measurements for all of the doors, ordered them and installed them and they were perfect fit. We are very happy with the durability and the quality of the screen doors he installed. I highly recommend him for anyone looking to install garage storage or custom screen doors. read more

After one company said they could not do what I wanted and a second one never followed up on a planned visit for an estimate, I found the Clever Home and Martin! He was confident and had great suggestions and options. Although we need to see how everything goes over the next seasons, we are thrilled with our sun/wind screens. We added solar power for them and a sensor that deploys/retracts the screens based on our preferred settings for Lux and wind speed. The install was smooth and Martin was responsive to every question. read more

Based on the reviews for this company, I called The Clever Home to inquire about installing retractible screens, and I am so pleased with how great they look and how smoothly they operate. I strongly recommend Martin who, I understand, does all the jobs himself. He is very personable, honest, reliable, and has a strong work ethic. Thank you, Martin! read more

New home, new garage. After the move, we had stuff - like lots of stuff. We had about three full rooms filled with boxes and stuff. Needed storage room. Martin to the rescue. I bought Costco shelf Saferacks. Safe Racks referred me to Martin for professional installation. He came out and installed the garage racks. He gave his suggestions and I gave my feedback, wants, and concerns. Together we made a great garage storage area. Neighbors came by and loved them. I gave out Martin's contact and he's working on their garages and storage needs, too. Thanks, Martin Muguruza! read more

Martin Muguruza is a gem. He arrived at the new house we'd moved into and gave me the storage that I needed. He's so kind, so polite, so professional and a joy to work with. He installed overhead racks for storing things we don't use that often, yet we still need them, like earthquake supplies and extra car covers. My garage was so unorganized that even I was scared to walk into it. May I tell you about the gorgeous cabinets he installed? They let me organize everything and get it off the floor. Lisa A said that she wished she had a bigger house so that she could give Martin more projects. I feel the same way. read more

i had a great experience with a screen to cover my front door. i have a cat that likes to go outside, but when i leave the door open, i end up with a bunch of flies flying around in my living room. The Clever Home was able to provide a custom screen door with a magnetic cat door opening to allow my cat to go in and out by himself and to prevent flies from coming in! Perfect! I was especially pleased by the high level of communication between the installer and me... he was very communicative in a timely fashion and easy to work with. Thanks! read more

Martin has done three jobs at my garage, all top-notch. It's incredible to watch him work as he moves swiftly in tough spaces and delivers exceptional quality with speed. I believe his strength is his problem-solving; you may find some high-quality contractors who can execute the "how" once the "what" & "why" has been figured out. But If your problem is open ended, hire Martin to do all three "why", "what" and "how". read more

The retractable screens from The Clever Home are wonderful! They're hidden very well in the sides of the doors and the casing isn't as bulky as the competitor's screens. They're very easy to use and the screens are almost impossible to see. I had to put tape on them so no one would walk through them. Martin was easy to work with, professional and quick to receive the product. I highly recommend The Clever Home and Martin! read more

Martin is great! He offers a wide variety of Clever Home improvements. He installed a new epoxy floor, and hung numerous storage racks and slat walls in the garage, making it much more organized and good looking. He also installed 4 retractable screens in our house which work great. Everything went smoothly, and he is a pleasure to work with. read more

We had been considering installing blinds on our pavilion for a couple years, primarily as a windbreaker to make the space useable year round, but couldn't find a suitable product. Late last year I found blinds from Universal screens that met the specs I was looking for and then got quotes from a couple of installers recommended by the company. Martin came round to quote for the job and after discussing with him what I wanted and how to fit the blinds I decided to go with him. I did some of the prep work whilst the blinds were on order and then last week Martin came to fit them. With everything now reassembled they look really good and do a great job in reducing the wind. Martin was courteous, always wore a mask, and most importantly, did a good job as shown in the pictures. I would have no hesitation in recommending Martin. read more

Martin was as professional and good as they come. He called me twice to move my installation appointment to an earlier date and time, and finished the work very quickly once he arrived. He had a few great suggestions to make the installation look even nicer and to be more functional. I would hire him again in a heartbeat and highly recommend him to anyone looking to remodel or add additions to their garage (that's what I did, I'm sure he's great at other stuff too).

Martin did a great job installing our garage door roof racks. He called to set up the appointment, showed up right on time, provided great advice on where to place the racks and options for installing more racks if needed. He completed the installation quickly and it looks great-we have much more storage without using any floor space. He left the area neat and clean. read more

The best way to tell when you're dealing with a professional and reputable company is when you have the opportunity to see how unexpected challenges are dealt with. I have been talking with Martin for over a year about options for a motorized drop-down screen for a large sliding door opening. He has been thorough, patient and communicative throughout the process. Presenting options and costs was always straight-forward. When the install looked slightly different than I was expecting, Martin was committed to making it right and honoring the things that he knew were important to me with this screen. In order to rectify it, he needed to spend a significant amount of time and re-order some materials, but in the end he ensured that I am a happy customer. He is even returning to take care of a small cosmetic detail and wrap up the job. I intend to see what other services that he offers and use and recommend him whenever possible. read more

I was pleasantly surprised with Martin's creative approach and the ease of working with him. The result was a small custom shelf above a stairwell, for storing luggage, clearly robust to hold several times the weight it was intended for. I would call him back for further improvements. San Rafael is a long haul from where we live, so it took us a while to arrange a time to get the task done. I suppose he does projects widely throughout the Bay Area. read more
