Jorge and his team did a total remodel of our 1940's home, all the way to the studs, including new electrical and plumbing. The project was daunting, so much so that flippers wouldn't even submit offers on this home pre-remodel. The design was ours, but the work was 90% done by his team or subs (except the roof, retaining walls, and some tile work). We would do it again with Jorge! He listened to my wife and I equally. He fixed mistakes they made, even if just misunderstandings. He made counter-recommendations to help us manage costs. His primary team Jose and David were always helpful and their cleanup was exemplary. It is important to be fair and communicate that he takes on too many projects, so the timelines proposed were not nearly close. As they say, "Good, Fast, Cheap; Pick two." He was Good and Cheap(ish). read more

We couldn't be happier with our experience working with Jorge and the entire Tierra Nexus Team! They go above and beyond to ensure everything is done right--not just during the project but even after it's completed. Anytime we need help, they are there for us, always willing to fix things and make sure we're satisfied. The only challenge is getting enough time with them (which speaks to how in demand they are!), but when they're on-site, they give 110%. Great people, exceptional craftsmanship, and a truly reliable team. We remodeled our entire home with Tierra Nexus and highly recommend them! read more

Started out great. Good communication and good work. Their workers were great (friendly, good work). 1/2 way through it turned into never knowing when they were coming onsite until maybe the day before, minimal communication and not following through on other changes/project information we requested. Also, we agreed to changes on our project along the way (which they agreed to) but never any contract update nor price change. In the end, we felt we overpaid for the work they performed. The owner is who this review is written against. Would not recommend. read more

Even though I didn't hire them for my current job they gave me a great estimate, extremely professional, on time and accommodating. I will definitely consider this company for future projects. Thank you Jorge! read more

My husband and I just worked with Jorge and Tierra Nexus and could not be more thrilled with the end result. We did two bathrooms, outdoor concrete and a range instal. All of the projects turned out wonderfully and the end results exceeding our expectations while staying within our budget. Jorge and crew were timely, professional and very clean. We really enjoyed working with Jorge and are already thinking about lining up our next project. Thanks again, Jorge and Tierra Nexus!!! read more

Still haven't received a quote for some work on our house for exterior siding and it's been 2 weeks. This type of delay just for a quote tells me all I need to know about the company. No thanks. read more

I'm going to start out with the good: they did an awesome job on the tile that I had them install for me. Unfortunately this is the only good thing I really have to say about working with Tierra Nexus. Granted, no one seems to like their contractors but my issues stem from the lack of communication to keep me informed and the fact that it took them 3 weeks to complete a job that they advised would take 1 week. The lack of communication meant that they installed some lights in the wrong position and then their correction was quite lazy. They installed the bathroom lights upside down and when I asked them to correct it they just flipped them over and they were now positioned way too low. So if you are looking for someone to install tile for you, then Tierra Nexus will do a good job but you might want to shop around for lower prices. I would not recommend them for any other work which includes painting and installing things like lights/fans. read more

Used these guys to take a wall out and move a doorway, ahead of putting in a new kitchen . Very reliable, great quality work.

I very very rarely write reviews about vendors or contractors. I've only written when they are really really bad or really really good.  This company (Tierra Nexus Construction) is is one of the best and most professional licensed contractor that I've ever had the pleasure of working with.  Jorge is amazing and knows so much about so many things.  He's one of the most knowledgeable general contractors that I've ever met with reasonable prices. Repairs and maintenance on our house is challenging because sits on a steep hillside and is three stories high.  Tierra Nexus was one of the few companies that would take on some of our most challenging projects. This included rebuilding completely a three-car driveway on a steep hillside and rebuilding completely our garage stairs in a difficult and inaccessible area (exterior hanging stairs between the 2nd and 3rd floors). In addition they have done several smaller projects which I've been very pleased with.   I have the highest recommendation possible for Tierra Nexus and Jorge.  You'll be very pleased with her work!!

I interviewed several contractors in Spring 2016 and found Jorge's quote to be the best and felt he would be the best to work with. Also he and his team remodeled a bathroom for my relative so he came recommended. I kind of knew what to expect of him. So in September I nailed down the quote for my remodel as specific as possible and his team started work in November and completed in four months. The scope was full kitchen remodel and two bathroom remodels. Also as I saw him complete work, I added a few other things to the scope of the project - install new doors, paint house trim. Overall I am very pleased with the work and I have told many people this so I'm sure one day he'll get more business from my recommendation. The primary persons working on my remodel were: Jorge, Jose (onsite contractor), Jose, David, Alan. All were fantastic. Also, Tierra Nexus subcontracted kitchen/bathroom cabinetry work with Gabriel and Sergio. The final quality of their work was excellent too, although there were areas that needed immediate reworking to make acceptable quality and so I pushed back on that. Jorge immediately fixed and ensured good quality and that I was satisfied. Also, countertop fabrication was done through Antonio and team in Lemon Grove. I did not enjoy working with Antonio - he tried to rush my choice of where to cut the stone - but I prevailed in choosing - and the resulting cut of the stone for countertops came out great and I was please with the result. All in all, I highly recommend Tierra Nexus. All contractor work is difficult for both sides (customer and business) so you need to be on top of everything. What I liked most about working with the team at Tierra Nexus was that they did quality work, were very professional and courteous, very good at providing direction and suggestions for design decisions, but yet respected my input and my overseeing of most every thing they worked on. In the course of four months where they worked almost every day, with exception of a week or two where we waited for something before continuing work, I only pushed back (got frustrated, complained, and/or yelled) on work items a few times. As a final data point, since this remodel completion in early 2017, I have shown the work and shared my stories of the remodel to many others and my takeaway from getting feedback from them is that 1) the quality of my remodel is above average 2) my experience of working with the contractors was much better than average. Both these say a lot. So many people have had bad experiences with their remodels. I did not. I highly recommend Tierra Nexus for any remodeling work. I will add photo for kitchen, bathroom. read more

I had a very difficult time finding someone to install light fixtures in my vaulted ceiling (including the electrical work). I finally found someone, but that person flaked the day before the work was supposed to be done. Fortunately, I was referred Jorge Parra-Loli, President of Tierra Nexus Corporation, by a buddy who was raving about Jorge's work at his home, building an office. Jorge was willing to meet with me the same day I called, letting him know the electrician I had hired suddenly wasn't going to be able to follow through as scheduled (I was ticked because I used a vacation day from work to stay home). Jorge gave me an estimate (far more reasonable than what I had been quoted by the electrician), we scheduled for Saturday at 7am (two days later), a time that worked for me and my family. Jorge had the light fixtures installed by 9:30am. Jorge was ontime for both appointments (estimate and to do the work). He's a very nice guy, competent, professional and considerate. My wife and I are already preparing a list of items around the house in need of repair for a return visit from Jorge. I can't give him a higher recommendation. read more

We recently had Tierra Nexus complete a kitchen renovation in our home. We cannot say enough good things about this company and the quality of the work they did. All workers were prompt, friendly, and professional making the process that can be daunting with some companies an enjoyable one. Jorge always listened to our needs and took his time to make sure everything met our expectations. We just love our kitchen and we can't wait to have Tierra Nexus back to do more renovations. We're so happy we found such a great company that we can continue to support!! read more

Can't speak to this companies work, because after the owner showed up to give an estimate, he never got back to me. I was told he'd have a formal estimate for me within a week. A little over a week later I left him an email, no reply. The next day I called and he said he was working on it and I'd have it the next day. That was a month ago. The job was for the new construction of a 2 car garage. Maybe it was out of their scope. With their 5 star status on Yelp, I was excited to do business with them. Too bad. read more

Hiring contractors is not an easy thing. I had the pleasure of hiring Jorge Parra-Loli and his wonderful company Tierra Nexus. I have been wanting to build a office in my home for a long time, and Tierra Nexus delivered on all levels. Jorge was on time for every appointment, but most importantly he and his crew took care of my house like it was his. Tierra Nexus not only cleans after every visit, but Jorge was accurate with his schedule and updated me at every corner. I would recommend Tierra Nexus to any of my friends and most importantly his pricing is competitive and he is licensed. A+ work by a wonderful company. 5 stars is just not enough. read more

Jorge and his team have worked on multiple projects over multiple years on my home including large remodels of my kitchen, bathroom and outdoor deck. He and his team are very knowledgeable, always showed up on time, kept the job site clean and did great work. Would highly recommend and I will be using again in the future. read more

After firing a horrible general contractor who gave us nothing but nighmares over our home renovation, we wanted to find someone who we can trust, provide good customer service and quality work. I pretty much called every general contractor who had four stars and above on Yelp in the San Diego area and ended up bringing in Jorge. I asked him to fix everything that the previous guy screwed up - paint touch-ups, floor transition, window and door trims, countertop repair, pocket door installations, etc.. Due to his family emergency in overseas and his countertop guy moving to other state, we are not completely done, yet; however, Jorge has been just fantastic. His team was always on time, kept everything clean after each work day and truly professional. My wife and I are very fortunate to find him and will be working with him again. I highly recommend his service. read more

I called Jorge after reading the reviews on Yelp. He showed up the next day to give me a quote to install 1 light fixture and 2 chandeliers on a vaulted ceiling (18 feet up). It was roughly $150 more than the cost to do it myself and I liked Jorge so I agreed to contract him. He and his crew (Ernie & Johnny) arrived on time the following week and did an outstanding job on the installation. They were all professional and courteous, traits from a bygone era. Bringing the scissor lift inside the house was challenging but they custom built a ramp on the spot to get it done. They listened attentively to my instructions and executed exactly as I had asked. I knew the job ended up costing Jorge more than the amount quoted but he stood by his figure; nevertheless, I paid him more. I do many jobs myself so I'm somewhat picky. As a result, I rarely extend a full endorsement to contractors but have no hesitation in highly recommending Jorge and his company. read more

My husband and I are making over our new home and learning everything for the first time on our own. There have been some things we don't have the know how or the time to handle. We decided to out source the bathroom flooring and Jorge made us feel very at ease as well as offered competitive prices. He is our go to guy now and we will use him for any additional projects we don't want to tackle on our own! read more

Jorge is the best!! There was a water leak under the kitchen sink at our rental property in San Elijo ( San Marcos), which went undetected for a couple months. The damage was extensive. I found Jorge on Yelp. What I liked about him was his quick response time, professional demeanor and reasonable pricing. He was there for me from start to finish! Thanks Jorge! read more

I started by sending an email with a picture of a project I wanted done and Jorge agreed to come out the next day and give me an estimate. I needed an opening done between two walls on a weight bearing wall. There was some electrical and plumbing involved that was not a problem for him. I received the initial estimate for the project but it was a little over my budget and Jorge was able to work with me to get closer to my budget. He was extremely professional, his crew tried to keep the house as clean as possible and cleaned up after themselves daily. He gave me a 3 day estimate for my project and stuck to the timeline. The final product was exactly as I had hoped for, with the wall texture matching my existing walls. I would definitely recommend him and will use his services again for my next big project. read more

Jorge and his team did a fantastic job on our bathroom remodel. We were able to stay within budget and the results exceeded our expectations. Definitely would hire again for our next project. read more

Yes...this review is truly as good as it gets! Twice in my life I have had to interview and hire a contractor which is tricky at best. The first time I called Tierra Nexus...Jorge the owner answered the call himself (shocker)...THEN...when we met at my condo to discuss the scope of the work and make up my "wish list" he showed up on time (impressive). He was really considerate the whole way through the project which included updating a condo that hadn't been touched in 25 years. He would tell me when something wouldn't look good (helped me make all my decisions) and I trusted that and I am glad I did..he has really good taste. All that plus..the project wrapped up in time for me to move in when I needed to. I would hire this crew anytime!! I really think there is nothing that they can't do..and do it right! Hire them NOW!! read more

We've had Jorge and his crew at Tierra Nexus come out for 2 projects so far, and we will definitely call him back for future home improvement projects. They were very timely, kept everything very clean, and communicated with us the whole time during every step of the process. His prices are very reasonable. He and his team are true professionals. We are very fortunate to have met him, and highly recommend his services. read more

Jorge and his team have all the critical talents to take a project from start to finish. My husband and I are so impressed with the work they have done for us. The projects they completed included the demolition and complete remodel of an older bathroom, modification of an adjoining bedroom and modification of an office area. Each project was completed to our satisfaction. We came to like Jorge and his team very much and speak often of the professionalism, sound communication and solid management of them. Thank you to Tierra Nexus Corporation. Bravo! read more

I picked Tierra Nexus from three choices that I found on Yelp. Their description of the job to be done was very detailed and clear. They were all very professional and punctual. The job was done in a timely manner and the bathroom turned out just as described. I would definitely hire these people again if I had another project to be done. read more

I hired Tierra Nexus to put in a window in my home. Jorge came out personally and gave a quote within a couple days of calling him. No hassle no fuss. A few month later we decided to move forward with it. The work they did looks fantastic! they were very respectful of our home (put down plastic, wore covers on shoes, etc.) and the end product looks flawless. The whole job only took a few days. I will definitely be using Tierra Nexus for my future projects. Very positive experience. read more

We picked Jorge out of 7 other contractors, to build a new master bathroom for us. Jorge kept us informed and at ease all along . The workmanship was excellent, soooo during the addition we made a few more "additions"... we asked to have a weight bearing wall removed and new tile placed in the kitchen, entry, and living room for a total of over 400 sq." Jorge said "NO problem" so while we went on vacation his crew started on the floor tile, I felt completely at ease leaving Jorge and crew in our home while we were gone for 10 days. Then we asked for part of our driveway to be dug up and re poured as the old cement had cracked in several places... again "No problem." So with all of this done I asked for one more thing... the front door to be changed out and once again "NO problem" was the answer. Now back to the main addition, Jorge took me to find just the right granite for the countertops, and the perfect tile for the new bathroom, we spent a good portion of the afternoon doing this but it was not a concern for Jorge. He said his job was to make sure we were happy with everything, and we are. The new bathroom has custom cabinets, beautiful granite, and tile on the floor and shower, and the walls are hand textured . Just beautiful! The addition looks as if it's been part of the bedroom from the beginning including the outside. I can't say enough . If you want a professional looking addition or remodel you must go with Jorge. Thanks Jorge Sharon&Tim read more

My husband and I met with a total of five contractors when we decided it was time to remodel our master bathroom. When we met Jorge, the owner of Tierra Nexus, we got a good vibe from him, and considered hiring him on the spot, but we wanted to be 'careful,' so decided to follow through with the other contractors we'd already made appointments with. We could have saved ourselves a lot of time and stress if we'd just gone with our gut instinct about Jorge. Jorge was professional and friendly, listened carefully to our ideas, and patiently answered the myriad questions we asked. I designed the bathroom and Jorge and his team executed my design beautifully. One of the things I liked best about working with Tierra Nexus was their straightforward approach to pricing. The other contractors we met with couldn't tell us with any specificity what the final cost of the remodel would be, due to the (apparent) industry practice of giving the customer 'allowances' for the various components of a remodel. Although the practice may be widely used, in my opinion it's just another way for the contractor to pad his profit. Jorge told us upfront what the 'hard' costs would be, e.g. demolition, labor, and, in general, everything a remodel entails EXCEPT the materials - the 'soft' costs, which we were responsible for providing and paying for out of pocket. The remodel ended up costing less than any of the other quotes we were given, despite the fact that I used some fairly high end products. We absolutely LOVE our gorgeous new bathroom! Jorge and his team were easy to work with, always arrived on time, and were very respectful. I can't say enough about the awesome Jose Puentes, who did the majority of the work on our bathroom. He often arrived earlier than scheduled, but would sit in his truck and wait for me to stagger out of bed and unlock the gate he entered through - I am NOT a morning person! Jose worked like a DOG - I don't think I've ever seen a harder worker - but was always so pleasant and friendly. I left the house quite frequently to run errands, etc., and never felt uncomfortable having Jose there alone. We are hoping to eventually further improve our house, and will be contacting Jorge to assist us. I recommend Jorge and Tierra Nexus unreservedly, and would be happy to provide a reference to anyone considering using Tierra Nexus. read more

Amazing communication, and such timely quality work. All the horror stories you read or hear about with contractors, them not showing up when promised, delays, cost overruns, NONE of which happened with my demo-reno project with Jorge. Him and his team showed at 8am sharp every day, they were clean, nice, respectful, finished in the timeframe promised and the cost during the quoting process was the exact cost at the end of the project. I will definitely use Tierra Nexus again for my next projects. read more

Highly recommend using Tierra Nexus Corporation! Jorge and his staff are top notch professionals who get the job done right in an extriemely efficiant manner and the results are flawless. I have never been compelled to write a review for anything until I used the services of Tierra Nexus. Your calls are returned promptly, the quotes are easy to understand, and the work is the best you will find anywhere. You will not regret using this company for all of your general contracting needs. This is the only company I will use in the future. read more

My handyman recommended Jorge Parra and Tierra Nexus when a small repair uncovered horrible damage in my master bathroom as a result of poor construction by a shoddy contractor six years ago. Jorge came in the same day, gave me an estimate and we scheduled a start date. Jorge is so kind and professional, his crew demonstrate the same values and they are honest, hard working and clean. I am impressed at the workmanship and Jorge's pricing is fair. Call Tierra Nexus Construction for any construction needs you have, you will not be sorry! read more

Jorge and his entire team were amazing. So nice and professional from beginning to end. He was in constant contact through the entire project of replacing my countertops and back splash. I had a few changes made from the original plans and he worked with me and now I'm so happy with the results. I would HIGHLY recommend him for any project! read more

You can't beat Tierra Nexus for honesty, punctuality, quality and respectfulness. Jorge helped rebuild my bedroom after extensive water damage and was extremely patient and helpful with the decision making process. He went out of his way to make sure I was kept informed and also happy with the work. When I had questions after the work was complete, he was only too accommodating to answer them. Working with contractors can be stressful, but the experience with Tierra Nexus was completely contrary to this. I highly recommend Tierra Nexus. read more

We needed a contractor to install a new front entry door and double French doors at our home in Vista. We have worked with many contractors over the years, and unfortunately good ones are few and far between... Jorge is one of the good ones... He answered the phone when I first called him (a rarity), he came to our house at the scheduled time to determine the scope of the work, and he provided a written estimate the very next day. We felt his estimate was fair, and were impressed with his follow-up, so we chose him over 2 other contractors we had met with, and can now say we made a very good decision. During the job, Jorge was a good problem solver when unexpected issues came up (as they always do), he and his crew completed the work on schedule, and they left the job site clean. But what I was most impressed with was Jorge's attention to detail. He is very conscientious about the quality of his company's work, and worked with his crew to ensure that things were done properly, and no corners were cut. He wanted to make sure we were happy with the end result... And we were. We highly recommend Jorge and his company, and plan to use them again in for future projects! read more

Jorge (the owner) was fantastic to work with and we love our final renovation. He was timely, honest, professional, and overall wonderful to work with. He always attentively listened to our needs and came back with great ideas. Jose was the one who came every day to complete 90% of the work and he also was simply the nicest guy ever. Friendly, professional and does amazing work! Very trust worthy and reliable. Multiple times I left him working at our house for hours while I ran errands. Jose built a beautiful set of built-ins for for daughters bedroom and finished custom wood shelving in our master bedroom closet. He stayed late on Christmas Eve to complete them! He also tiled our second bathroom and updated some fixtures. Lastly, Jose (and team) built a wall for us to create two bedrooms, finished it with molding, painted, and it matched perfectly. Even the electrician commented on their excellent work. Overall, we loved working with Jorge and Jose. They are very talented at a variety of construction projects big or small. They always cleaned up every afternoon and used mats to protect any areas they would walk through. Finally I have found a reliable contractor!! Hallelujah! read more
