“I recently had my entire home remodeled by Bay Home Remodeling , and it was an excellent experience. Gal and Bay Home Remodeling made the planning and execution process incredibly easy.
The quality of their work is amazing. After the Remodel was completed, some minor touch ups were needed. Gal had team members at my house the next day to make the touch ups without any hesitation.
From a pricing perspective, I received several quotes from various companies and individuals. Bay Home were not the cheapest, but they were closer to the mid lower end. I believe the price-to-quality ratio speaks for itself. The entire project took about 3 month from demo to finish.“
“We wanted to add a Cool Roof to our house and started looking for a trustworthy company to install one. We got recommended Home by Tom the most, and after seeing their work, we certainly understand why. Happy to have found this trustworthy team and Tom. Really happy to recommend them!“
“We just had our driveway /carport done and the entire team was great to work with! Over the years we've had a large number of big and small renovations done on our properties. This was honestly the most pain free and efficient construction project that we've had. Nate went over everything with us at our initial consult and made sure all our questions were answered. Nick, the project manager worked through everything seamlessly and ensured everything was to our liking. The crew did an amazing job and we are so happy with the result! The project was completed ahead of schedule and on budget. If you're thinking about any landscaping or paving project go with NAB! Top notch customer service and quality craftsmanship.“
“Adval Construction is professional and worked with our tight timeline and delivered everything in great quality. Would definitely recommend!“
“We requested quotes from several contractors for our attic conversion project and decided on LRL. Raz came to the house to discuss our plan and let us know we would need an engineer to look things over before he could bid (this was the common thread of all of the companies we considered). We had an engineer draw up plans to shore up the house so it could hold the added weight of a new room and then got quotes. After meeting with Raz, we were pretty sure we would go with LRL. He told us he wouldn't be the least expensive quote, but might come in a little higher because he treats his employees well, and pays them a living wage. That is a win-win. He has a loyal team of skilled individuals who all work well together and he doesn't have to keep training new people to provide the level of service and expertise required to make customers happy.
Everyone has heard the nightmare stories about contractors who start a job and then disappear, or drag things out, or are just generally difficult to work with. LRL is the exact opposite of those horror stories. Our project was completed on time and at the agreed upon price. It seems like that would be the standard, but I don't think it is with other contractors.
The whole team was great. Everyone was very respectful of our home and they seemed to work efficiently together. While they were doing the main attic conversion project, we asked if they could put up a new chandelier for us, which they happily did. They also repositioned an kitchen island pendant for us. When we had ideas mid-project, Raz and the guys were happy to work with us, consider our design thoughts, and either make them a reality, or help us find a great alternative.
They connected us with an AC expert who sold us a mini-split unit, and his crew worked with the LRL team to reposition our heating return. Raz also has an electrical expert who got everything wired up to take the additional load that a whole new room adds.
The finished product is what really matters though, and LRL delivered! We couldn't be happier with our new bonus room. The added storage capacity has made other areas of our home more comfortable as well. The quality of the work is outstanding. LRL stand behind their work and makes sure that the job is done right. We noticed our front porch wood had been slightly damaged while they were bringing wood into the house, so when everything was done, they sanded and painted it back to its original condition. Once the dust settled and we were able to be in our space again, we noticed something that wasn't quite right. Raz sent the team over a few days later, and they made it right. I have never heard of another contractor being so willing to make everything perfect. I can't recommend LRL Builder highly enough. You can stop looking, you've found the best contractor in the Bay.“
“Thank S&I team and DavidWe have done deck rebuild in our back yard and we are happy with the result S&I price was fair and affordable and so far the result of the work is very good tooTotally recommend“
“Eagle did a great job at a competitive cost. I’m pleased I decided on this company after exploring numerous competitors.“
“They have done a large amount of work at my husband’s workplace and did an excellent job. Our friends had a redo on their backyard and it looks amazing.“
“We weren't able to work with Sontag Construction because they are too busy to take on our project right now, however Peter was very kind and helpful and gave me some very valuable advices as well as some referrals. Thanks a lot!“
“I contacted Big Red after having read great reviews here and on NextDoor. So glad I did! This is a first rate company in every way. The owner, Kathy Kovell, is so experienced, knowledgeable and fun to work with. Her crew, most of whom have been with her for some time, are just terrific. The sub-contractors she hires are people she has worked with for years and who she trusts to do an excellent job. She holds everyone's feet to the fire, too! They built a casita (ADU) for us and, while they were here, we engaged them to have our roof replaced, a driveway added, a retaining wall and a pathway. The casita is beautiful. It was completed on time and on budget. The work is first class in every way. We absolutely could not be happier! If you are remodeling or needing to build something, you will not go wrong contracting with this great team. We are so glad we did.“
“The most honest and amazing service. Fair priced and good quality work. They did a bathroom for me, floors, redecorating and kitchen work. Can handle and level of job. Totally satisfied and no hassle. Turn up as they promise. Will definitely use again.“
“BEST! True to all the other reviews. Working with Terra Nova and Sheila was easy simple and stress free. We got the best rate, the best timeline, a very kind contact. If you need a sewer lateral done just go with Terra Nova“
“The team at Cruikshank was truly outstanding. We did a large project with them and working with everyone could not have been better. Everything came in on budget, the workmanship was outstanding, every punch list item was addressed and our yard is exactly what we wanted it to be. Could not recommend them more highly.“
“Fantastic experience from start to finish. ATG worked with us to figure out exactly what to do and weren’t too pushy about anything. Ricardo and his crew were very professional and tidy during construction. Best of all our house is more comfortable than before and we pay less overall on our energy bill.“
“I just completed a major condo renovation with A2Z Remodeling Inc. Project manager Meir Bar was a delight to work with and expertly guided the process from initial contact to final sign-off. Meir handled it all, from securing city permits to guiding design choices to running interference with suppliers, workmen and condo management. Meir's team of craftsmen were equally respectful and diligent. Meir always returns calls promptly and offers straightforward solutions to the inevitable challenges that arise. The project proceeded on schedule with no delays and there were no time or change orders. The end result was a great value, a great place to live and a great experience.“
“North Berkeley Design and Construction (NBDC) did an outstanding job transforming our basement into a comfortable living space. Their attention to detail is impeccable, ensuring that every aspect of the project was completed to the highest standards. The team uses only the best materials, which is reflected in the quality and durability of the final results. The pricing is fair, offering excellent value for the exceptional craftsmanship they deliver.
The owner is a fantastic person who clearly cares deeply about the work, taking care to design everything with our needs in mind, and adding a personal touch that makes the results even better. Our basement is now gorgeous, and I would not hesitate to hire them again for future projects.“
“Ed and his team did a fantastic job installing a sump pump in our basement and with improvements in the back yard to help us with our water drainage issue we had. I can only recommend him and his team. Great experience!“
“We got what we wanted quickly; and all the people we dealt with were friendly and professional.“
“Enrique and his crew were here bright and early every single day and worked, worked, worked. We only saw them break for lunch. They arrive between 7:30-8:00 and didn't leave until 3:30-4:00. Enrique was very accommodating with our requests and changes. We've had at least 5-7 quotes from different contractors and Live Oak General'bid came at a reasonable price. We LOVE our new deck!!“
“I reviewed this company two years ago. Please refer to that review. Not sure why YELP is requesting a new one. In any case I'm sure they are still at 5 star level“
“I had bought a new prehung front door and had M 7.24 Builders installed and painted it for me. They did a great job. I also had a leak issue with my bathroom air vent. M 7.24 was able to diagnose the issue after cutting up section of my ceiling in the bathroom. Turns out to be a corroding vent duct. They were able to replace it and patch up the ceiling with the same texture and paint it. I would recommend this company for any repair and remodeling around the house. Henry and his team were great“
“I have found Alward Construction to be such a class act. Along with work they did on my house, they poured the perimeter foundation for my accessory building 10-plus years ago. Shortly after that, I needed to put the accessory building build on hold. Recently, upon resuming the accessory building build (on my own), it came to my attention that a hold-down was missing. It truthfully felt odd and embarrassing, on my part, to reach out to Alward Construction after so many years, But I did. Mark was understanding and treated the situation as if they had poured the foundation last week. Not only did they come out to install the bolt, Mark sent Rafael, the builder who was the Lead on the my project more than 10 years ago and Rafael's right hand person from more than 10 years ago! I was grateful and impressed by how Alward Construction has managed to retain these excellent builders and how Mark, without hesitation, stood by the work they did more than a decade ago.“
“We undertook a very extensive renovation of our house in El Cerrito, and met with Berkeley Craftsmen on the recommendation of our architect. We are so eternally grateful for the introduction, and for their availability in taking on our project. I truly can't express adequately what a wonderful job they did building our home. The care and attention to every little detail, the excellence of every aspect of the work, and above all the quick, clear and responsive communication, at every stage of the huge project, were all outstanding. Mark Butler has continued to follow up long after most of the crews have gone, personally coming by to finish small punch-list items, making sure we are 100% satisfied.This project was very extensive, like down to the studs, with new foundation and drainage elements, all new interiors with drywall, new floors, complete new plumbing and electrical system, new exterior, solar system, windows, doors, everything, and we are completely in love with everything BC and all their subcontractors did for us.I can't recommend them highly enough, truly an exceptional company. It restores one's faith that there are still true craftsmen in the world who take their jobs seriously, and believe in honesty and integrity.“
“I was in need of a kitchen remodel but was not wanting to be overcharged for things that were not needed. A friend referred me to John at Blue Jay Construction and let me tell you, it was the BEST decision! They did such a phenomenal job. I absolutely love being in my kitch now. So much space and his suggestions really did help. I am looking forward to my next project with them.“
“Alex and his team were absolutely fantastic! We chose Renova builders to work on our kitchen and dining room after meeting with a few different contractors, and we are so glad we went with Alex's team. They were incredibly professional and made the material selection process a breeze. Working with them was a pleasure, and we will definitely be reaching out to them for future projects.“
