    We had some water damage to an interior wall at the front of our house due to a leak in our roof. We hired john and his company for the repairs. First off, John McMinns professionalism is outstanding. He was always there if we had any questions or concerns before during and even after the project was finished. His workers were extremely detailed with the work they did. They were always on time and on top of each step of the way. His pricing wasn't the highest and wasn't the lowest we got but we felt it was fair, and the feeling I got from John when I spoke with him was the driving factor to go with him. He made it feel personal for him and not just another "job". He came with other ideas, and didn't say that's what needed to happen but offered suggestions. If you're considering any kind of home project repair I would highly recommend John McMinn and We Do it Custom.

    John built us our dream home. It was a total redo - every pipe, wire, all drywall, square footage added, walls moved - basically a new home. Many contractors we interviewed thought it would take between one and two years to complete the scope of work. John runs his teams so efficiently, we moved back in after 10 months. He is also a man of his word, a fair negotiator, and he understands quality work. A project like this comes with many unforeseen events and loads of stress. We appreciated John working through all of it with us. We are grateful for his work and we love our new home so much!

    First few days after install, watering it for optimal curing.

    John and his crew recently did a large driveway replacement for me which also included sewer line replacement and demolition of an existing gate, plus some minor masonry work. They did a stellar job. I'm almost hesitant to share a review because I'm going to want John on more house projects and worry about making him too busy to fit me in! I've worked and crossed paths with many contractors in Los Angeles, and most are horrible - poor scheduling, lacking in details, inconsistent quality. John is a general contractor who's a cut above all others I've worked with. If you've lived in Los Angeles long enough you know how hard it is to find a reliable crew for home repairs and improvements. You end up being your own general contractor to get anything done, let alone done right. With John, I was able to just explain what I wanted and leave the rest on his shoulders. If anything came up, we were able to communicate and resolve. The end result was also well done. John is incredibly communicative, clear, and willing to work with you on your project needs. His team is respectful and reliable. Know what you want, make your plans, communicate what you need and work out the details with him and you'll be happy.

    John and his team are amazing, this is our second time using them. They removed the old shutters off our house and smooth stuccoed the house. The team Was fast and efficient and they always make sure to keep the rest of our property nice and clean. They did an amazing job and literally transformed our house with a "face lift" 5 stars again and can't wait to use them for more future projects

    I needed a new contractor because my previous one bailed out on me two months ago. I called John, told him what I wanted in order to finish the project . He was able to help me right away. Built forms in two days, poured concrete on the third day. He coordinated with fence company as well. The end result was so good many neighbors said they want to do similar designs. I'm glad I found John, he can definitively do it right.

    John and We Do it Custom did an awesome job on our remodel!! It came out just as my wife and I envisioned it! We hit a couple snags on the way (behind the walls) which John handled with his experience and very professionally. His workers were exceptional in their work ethic and work quality. I very highly recommend him to take on your project!!

    My husband and I have been planning to have our backyard cemented for easy/low maintenance for many years and finally we decided to make it happen. I went on yelp to look for the top rated concrete contractor in my area (South Bay) and I found John and his company "We Do It Custom" for having 5 stars reviews and pictures to prove his work. I called John and he was able to come to my house to look at my backyard and provide an estimate the same day. From the beginning, John had excellent communication, punctual, friendly, and professional. I received the estimate the following day. We decided to go with John for our project and I'm so happy we did! He was always so prompt to respond to my texts, patiently answered my questions, and his prices are reasonable/competitive. John and his team worked really hard and were professional. At the end of each day they made sure the area was clean and ready for the next day's prep work. The whole project took 4 days as he mentioned in the contract and he was on point. Throughout the process he kept me informed about the plans, changes, and anything that came up. Great communication and customer service is so important to me and John delivered high quality work and honest. After the job was done, he made sure the area was clean and organized. We are very pleased with the results and love our backyard! I'm so happy that we chose John for our project. We can finally use our backyard. Overall, John, Stephen, and his whole team at We Do It Custom are professional, hard workers, produced high quality work, and excellent communication/customer service! I highly recommend John and his company. We will definitely go with him for future projects! Thank you John, Stephen, and all the crew for doing an amazing job!

    John is one of the best GCs in the business bar none. We had a lot of tricky custom work done at our house and his patience and expertise turned our backyard into a wonderland! This GC and subs flat out deliver and hold to their word, which is a rarity today!

    Yelpers: look no further and hire John McMinn and We Do It Custom. John is most trustworthy, honest and personable. He is an absolute pleasure to do business with. His work is clean, neat and tidy and you hardly know he is "in your space," while he's working away. His prices are reasonable and his jobs come in on time and on budget. We will hire him again for a bathroom re-do soon. I highly recommend him, willingly and without hesitation. I welcome you to call/email me for additional reference. See before and after on my concrete driveway that John fixed for us, attached:

    John and the team at WE DO IT CUSTOM helped us completely transform our home! Initially hired John to redo my driveway but after an awesome job with the concrete work, we had him do much more such as installing iron doors from Pinky's , new smooth stucco installation, new entry way ceiling construction and light fixtures installation. He is a great communicator and delegates tasks to his team efficiently . Don't mickey mouse your project , go with a pro that won't rob your pockets! Thanks again John. My contractor for life!

    This is the finished concrete (but before they secured the artificial grass back down).

    I reached out to MDM back in early 2025 and met with Mike right away so he could look at my…read moreproperty and walk me through what my wife and I wanted for our project. Throughout the entire process, Mike was very professional and the level of expertise he exhibited was obvious. Before Mike, I had met with 3 other contractors to compare services and quotes but what sealed the deal for me was the 3D render service Mike offered. It was affordable and it would be free if you end up going with MDM for your remodel. Mike was able to get the renderings to me very quickly and made adjustments whenever we wanted to change something. Seeing the details of the renderings really brought what we were envisioning to life and helped with the design process. Fast forward to beginning of demo/construction, Mike's employees were impressively fast and efficient at their jobs, but what really impressed me was how clean they kept our property after each day of work. And that stated true throughout the entire process of our 7 month renovation. During construction, if there were any last minute changes, Mike would always try to cater to our needs whenever possible. Even if subcontractors made mistakes with anything, Mike would make sure it is fixed and perfect right away. Keep in mind, you can't rely on Mike for everything (as much as you might want to). You really do have to do your research (in terms of design, finishing materials, sourcing those materials, and getting them delivered on time) and know exactly what you want and how you want it, that way, Mike can plan and put into action what needs to be done. After this entire process, we are extremely happy we got this project completed with MDM. What really sets them apart is the quality of work, dependability, and the great people that work for MDM. Shoutout to Mario! They really respected our home and were very considerate of us during construction. Even after everything was finished, they guaranteed that they would come back and fix anything that needed fixing. Cannot recommend them enough if you want to improve or build your new home!

Shawn was easy to reach, responsive, and great to work with throughout the project. The crew showed up on time, kept things clean, and finished everything in under 5 weeks. We did new tile, vanity, lighting, and a walk-in shower, and the quality really shows. Hard to find a contractor this consistent and reliable. Pricing felt fair too, especially for the level of work. Definitely recommend MDM Remodeling if you're doing a bathroom remodel in Los Angeles we'll be using them again.

    "Buyer beware before you consider Pulsar Construction in Torrance, CA"!…read more On July 15th, 2025, I submitted a request for kitchen/bathrooms renovation on Pulsar's website (including my zip code - see attached photo) on my Fusion at Southbay home. The same same day, received a response from Elena (office manager) stating "we are booked until September 21st and not accepting new project but we will put you on our waiting list". "Our team will contact you in case of any cancellations". After patiently waiting, 2-1/2 months, on September 29th, I received an update from Elena stating "Good morning Jeff!!! We are looking for a new project starting in November. Please leave us a note with the property address and your email. We will reach out to you after 10/10". So I did just that only to receive an immediate reply "Unfortunately, we are unable to help you because your zip code 90250 is outside our service area". This was very disturbing as we've been waiting 2-1/2 months and if this was known, we would have contacted another construction company. I responded to Elena "that is interesting, my home is 6.5 miles from Pulsar and clearly within your service area, per your website map". Elena replied "we can't consider your project since it is territorially located in Los Angeles". I explained to Elena, this is absolutely false as my Fusion at Southbay home with Hawthorne zip code 90250 is an "incorporated" city in LA county, the same as Manhattan, Redondo and Hermosa - in which my home literally borders MB/RB directly across Aviation Blvd. I then texted her all of the supporting screen shots (including map area of my home to Pulsar), Pulsar's website stating "We specialize in serving the SOUTH BAY of Los Angeles for 9 years". Elena, my home is in the "South Bay of Los Angeles. I requested to speak with the Owner only to be completely ignored by her going forward. In summary, my renovations would have been completed by now. I lost 3 months and have to start the entire process over again looking for another construction company. Again, potential customers - Beware of their misrepresentation and tactics!

Their…read moresophisticated knowledge and expertise, professionalism, and creativity are of the highest caliber. My project was extensive, including the removal of a wall, the creation of a vaulted ceiling, and a complete demo and creation of a new kitchen. Therefore, I took significant time and care in selecting a construction team. After meeting with Dmitry and Elena, I was confident that Pulsar Construction was the ideal organization to meet my needs, and this decision was validated throughout the process. Dmitry, Elena, and their team are extremely professional and organized. They provided a schedule of the work to be accomplished and met with me to discuss every aspect of the project. They facilitated every step of the construction and remodeling process. They obtained the required permits and addressed any concerns from the city. Elena provided excellent references for cabinetry, tile, flooring, and appliances and set up appointments for me. Of course, I was given the flexibility to obtain products from a business of my choice however, the references that she provided were of the highest caliber. I particularly appreciated that Elena was always willing and positive about meeting me at various sites to help me select materials such as flooring and backsplash. Her design and construction expertise were invaluable. One of the things I most appreciated was the frequent communication. I received daily texts and emails regarding progress made and any concerns or questions that arose. Also, I received prompt responses to my calls or texts. The team was flexible, working with me regarding my scheduling needs. Dmitry's and Elena's attention to detail and high standards of work were also greatly appreciated. They are hands-on, reviewing every task of the project. When they found a slight misalignment with the backsplash tile that was being installed, they had all of the tile removed and reinstalled so that it was perfectly aligned. They are perfectionists and treated my home like it was their own. Any challenge was met with impressive solutions. Dmitry was extremely knowledgeable and creative in finding solutions to challenges that arose. Through their professionalism, flexibility, frequent communication, positivity, and extensive knowledge, the Pulsar team greatly minimized the stress of what could have been an overwhelming experience. I was so impressed by their work, that I added several additional projects which they accomplished with expertise. Pulsar Construction is not only a business of the highest caliber, but every member of the team was consistently pleasant, thoughtful, and caring. They did everything possible to assure that my vision for my home became a reality, which it certainly did. I highly recommend Pulsar Construction and will definitely work with them on any future projects. I absolutely love my new home!!!
