Get matched with top addition and remodeling pros in East Irvine, CA

"After several long years of designing and permitting our home remodel during the pandemic, we were searching for a good contractor to build out our remodel and second story addition. Avi and David were wonderful; very thorough in explaining the process, answering all of our questions, and settling on a price that was reasonable and within our budget. During the building process, David was very responsive, available, and receptive to changes and last minute decisions made along the way. The project took longer than anticipated and there were some unexpected setbacks, but David and Avi worked quickly to fix issues and keep the project moving forward. At the end of the project they were very responsible about making sure we were satisfied with every last detail before completing the project. Our new home is beautiful and we're very happy with how it turned out, thanks to David and all the crews at So Cal Builders."

"I hired Kyle for a $14,000 home remodeling project based on reviews from Angie's List and Yelp, and overall, I am satisfied with the work Kyle and his team performed and I feel like I got my money's worth. Below are my thoughts: 1. Timeliness: Kyle's crew showed up on time every day and stuck to the schedule. The entire project stayed mostly on track. Things were slightly delayed due to city inspection, but that was a factor beyond Kyle's control. So definitely an A there. 2. Quality of work - I had three major projects in this remodeling, and below are my thoughts on them: a. Conversion of a bedroom into a mudroom/entry room to garage: For some reason this new house I bought did not have an access door from garage directly into the house, so I hired Kyle to remedy this by turning a bedroom that shares a common wall with the garage into a mud room with an access door. Job involved cutting the wall open and installing a fire rated entry door, as well as removing old wall paper and repainting the room. This job was done very well and definitely an A there. b. Bathroom remodeling: I also had Kyle remove an old bathtub & tile surround and replace it with a new jacuzzi tub, new tiles and an updated tub door. We also had the toilet repositioned as well. Final quality of work was very nicely done and we were very pleased with how the new tiles turned out. Regrettably, the new bath tub got a small 1" size scratch on one of the rim and I had to touch up paint it afterwards. So A-/B+ there due to my new tub getting scratched up during tile installation. c. House electrical upgrade: I had Kyle and his crew installing an 100 amp subpanel with 2x 50 amp outlets in the garage for EV charging. I also had multiple new outlets installed throughout the house. All the newly installed outlets worked very well and I am pleased with the results. However, after all the electrical work were done, three of my outlets in the house lost power due to a "open neutral". To make a long story short, Kyle's crew tried to trouble shoot it for the better part of a day but couldn't figure out what caused it. All the worker could say is that he doesn't think it was caused by their work. As this happened at the very end of the entire remodeling project and I was uncertain whose fault it was, I ended up just letting it go. Subsequently I did more troubleshooting on my own and after several hours of trial-and-error testing using a multimeter, I found a loose neutral wire in a bathroom switch box Kyle's crew worked on. The loose neutral wire was covered up by a bunch of other wire and wire nuts in the switch box. Once that wire was reconnected, the three dead outlets became functional again. My guess is that the wire got shaken loose when Kyle's crew swap out the switches in that box with new light and fan switches, and no one realized it because that wire was buried behind other wires. I can understand how Kyle's worker missed it while trying to trouble shoot this issue. However, I'm still a bit miffed that I end up having to fix this problem myself. Thus, while the newly installed outlets are great, I am not too thrilled with the fact that his worker knocked a wire loose while changing out bathroom switches and couldn't fix the problem. So on this part of the project, I would give Kyle's team an A on the new outlets and C for causing collateral damage on my other outlets that I had to fix myself. 3. Conclusion - other than the problems with the loose neutral wire and the scratch to the new tub noted above, everything else went smoothly. Thus, in light of the scope of this remodeling project, I decided that these two issues are minor and don't detract too much from the overall success. Thus, I ended up giving Kyle and his crew an A- overall."

"We just had our kitchen updated with new custom cabinets by Jacques Boulianger at C&M. We could not be happier and highly recommend him to others. 
We got four other estimates from reviews on Yelp and Angie's List and not only was Jacques' quote significantly less expensive, but based upon the conversations we had, we could tell he knew what he was doing. He worked with us and asked all the questions - even some we were not thinking of - and installation was quicker than anticipated. It took an extra half day over the one-day installation schedule as our concrete floors are a bit uneven. He spent a lot of time making sure each cabinet was perfectly level.  
Jacques is involved in the entire process from the planning stages to the construction of the cabinets in his workshop behind his showroom to being there during the installation. We even had a few hiccups (gas line and electrical outlets needed to be moved ) but these were not a concern to him and he took care of it during installation for no additional cost.
However, one of the most impressive aspects about Jacques is his quick and constant communication. When he made a plan he stuck with it from construction to installation. He responded to all our phone calls and emails quickly. He ended up needing to postpone our installation by two days and called us the week prior to apologize and work with our schedule. We had a lot of trust and really like his professionalism and character.
Again, do research, get some estimates, have a plan in mind, but definitely consider C&M. I hope you, like us, end up with a locally hand-crafted kitchen that will exceed your expectations.

"I needed to remodel my kitchen, I called USA Home Remodeling and they treated me with a lot of professionalism and respect, they gave me very good details and options so I decided to go with them. The communication throughout the project was excellent. Isaac kept me informed about the progress regularly, promptly addressing any concerns or queries I had. Their transparency and responsiveness were truly commendable, fostering a strong sense of trust and ensuring a smooth and stress-free experience. In addition to their expertise and professionalism, the team was also respectful, friendly, and a pleasure to interact with. They treated my property with care and ensured a clean and organized worksite throughout the construction process. I love my new kitchen and would strongly recommend USA Home Remodeling!"

"Our kitchen was in dire need of upgrades, and we met with many different contractors for estimates. Young from New Life Construction left the best impression by far, from his professionalism, renovation ideas and design, reasonable pricing, etc. I am so glad we decided to go with New Life as Young and his entire team were a delight to work with from start to finish. We received very helpful opinions regarding many aspects of the design and materials without it being overbearing, and it was helpful to see his previous projects through instagram (@newlife_construction) to see what has worked well for similar kitchens in the past. There was clear communication about everything from details of the job to scheduling and everyone was very attentive to our needs throughout. This company handled the demolition, cleanup, cabinets, countertops, overhead lighting, painting, appliance installation (range/oven and dishwasher), sink and faucet installation for us-- pretty much everything in the kitchen except the floors. They bring in separate contractors that are specialists in their respective field (cabinets, countertop, etc) to do each portion of the project so you know you're truly getting the experts at every step of the way. Even after the project was done, Young went above and beyond to wrap up last-minute issues that came up from cabinet parts that were on backorder and to this day is responsive to any issues that may come up in the future. My family and I are so happy with how the kitchen turned out and we would not hesitate to hire Young and his team again for future projects."

"We received 4 bids to remodel our master bathroom and extend our closet and Jon's bid was straightforward and competitive. He explained how he bids the cost of the remodel with basic construction materials. He does not include or allocate a dollar amount for the flooring, vanity, tile etc. that cost we were responsible for. He explained with this process we get the upgrade material we want from the start. Because of his years of experience he did provide insight on where we could find and purchase the materials at very competitive prices. This process worked out very well for us as my wife and I enjoyed choosing all the upgrade materials ( tile, bath fixtures, lighting, tub, flooring etc.). Jon is a bit of a perfectionist and he does not like to leave anything to chance so he always thoroughly communicated with us and his crew and always backed it up in writing. He and his crew were always professional and on time. The job took about 8 weeks and in the end we couldn't be more happy with the results."

"If you’re on the fence about hiring D2A Construction—don’t hesitate. We just wrapped up a full kitchen remodel, and the experience was night and day compared to past renovation nightmares. Dani was our project manager, and he was not only knowledgeable but honest and straightforward throughout the entire process. What impressed me the most was the communication. Dani gave us weekly updates, coordinated every inspection, and was quick to pivot when we made a few last-minute changes. He helped us find beautiful tile and cabinetry options that fit our aesthetic and budget, which is not easy to do. The workmanship was top-notch. You can tell the team takes pride in what they do—from the smooth finish on the cabinets to the precise tile work around the sink. They finished everything in a timely manner, and there was very little downtime between stages. I’ve already referred them to two coworkers. Dani and his crew are the real deal!"

"We were delighted with our home renovations by Calwest Construction. They worked on two total bathroom remodels (on both raised and concrete foundations), including a complete renovation of a spare room. Sam and his team were always on time, kept things tidy throughout the renovation, professional and knowledgeable on all aspects of the construction process. They completed the entire project in a timely manner, and the only delays were due to materials/supply shortages. Overall, they were very respectful of our home and expertly executed our design vision with quality work and craftmanship. We definitely plan on hiring them again for future home projects."

"He did great job and finished the project on time, if I need to do some remodeling, for sure call and ask home."

"This is our 2nd time using mrCC.We had cabinets refaced and new countertops in 2007 and we were very satisfied. The job this time isn’t finished yet but, kitchen cabinets are finished. Our cabinet installer/refacer David was exceptional. On time,very pleasant and his craftsmanship was superior. He listened and solved any problems or concerns we had right away. I highly recommend him (and mr cabinets)for kitchen remodel. All the team and office workers are great. I can’t wait to see finished job but, I wanted to give a comment on progress thus far."
