Home Healing Renovations

Jul 2023

We've worked with Jason for several projects, and he's always been patient, knowledgeable, professional, and easy-going with regards to which parts of the project we wanted to own, which parts we weren't sure of, etc. His team has always been top notch for us.He gave us white glove service on a new deck with custom railing and a garage tear-down and rebuild, including a new chunk of driveway and an artsy fence; and when we wanted to save a little money by managing a renovation project on our own, he helped us with that as well (drywalled and insulated the kitchen, rebuilt the front porch, replaced the back door, trimmed the eaves, and advised on a lot of odds and ends). Absolutely looking forward to working with him again for the next major project[s] as we figure them out.

If you are looking to renovate your house in the east bay, there's no team better suited for this work than these guys.My grandparents passed away and left me with their home built in 1929 which was quite hoarded and nothing in this house was up to code. As a first-time property owner, I had never taken on or dreamed of taking on a project of this scale - it was daunting and terrifying. I had met with contractors that others had recommended but ultimately chose to go with Jason and the HHR team that I found on Yelp because, from our first meeting, Jason was kind, respectful, and insightful - he didn't judge the crowded spaces or shy from the sizeable undertaking this project would be. He met my apprehension and overwhelm with calm confidence and pragmatism. Jason: - was incredibly communicative and transparent throughout the whole process- was timely to all our weekly check-ins (either virtual or in-person)- perfectly timed out when I needed to order/attain various appliances and parts for my house (no easy feat when we were faced with global supply chain issues)- talked me through any necessary changes that cropped up as the renovation was underway - he explained why some changes were recommended/optional and broke down the necessary fees attached but still gave me the autonomy to make my own decision without pressuring me- restored my faith in contractors (The poor guy had to put up with my swift distrust of contractors that I had developed from my other experiences with contractors - there was some real trauma there. I'm sorry, Jason!) - is a genuinely good person and someone I enjoyed working and bantering with each weekI got to meet most of the HHR crew during our site visits. His team was so responsive to all my (many) questions and they offered thoughtful suggestions/insight when I asked for advice. These guys are the just friendliest and kindest contractors I have ever met. Each crew - the carpenters, electricians, plumbers, painters, etc. - were all hands-down incredible and knowledgable. Thank you Pedro, Santos, Rafael, Isidro, Luis, Casta, Jose, and everyone else; I truly appreciate each of you for your work, expertise, and kindness!This project took place in the midst of crazy global supply chain issues and a pandemic and yet this project was inconceivably timely.These guys gutted and redid both of my bathrooms and my kitchen, reframed parts of both up and downstairs, replaced my windows, added insulation, redid the entire plumbing and electrical systems, removed my ancient heating system and replaced it with zoned central heating and cooling, replaced my plaster walls with drywall, repainted everything inside and out, AND built a deck with an ADA ramp in the backyard. They did this all in 6 months - it would have been done in 4 except that we had to wait an additional 2 months to replace a vendor botched vanity top (cough - Ashby Lumber).I honestly and truly cannot recommend this company enough. I feel so lucky to have found this team and feel like I've made genuine friendships with Jason and his family. I felt so much respect from everyone who worked on this project from their back office to the contractors to Jason himself. These guys are honestly the best in the business!

We had the most wonderful time working with Jason and his crews. Jason was always very careful to listen to our priorities and needs, and in turn was an excellent communicator every step of the way. The carpentry and paint crews were top notch. We particularly liked the older gentleman on the paint crew who went out of his way to be helpful! For this project, we ended up replacing all of our wood siding and doing structural repairs to our 1912 home, as well as replacing some windows and repainting. We definitely plan to contact Jason in the future to work on our basement as well!
