"Much Better Construction recently demolished and hauled away an old wooden deck from our backyard. They replaced it with a beautiful new one in 4 1/2 days! Isaac, the owner, was great to work with. He came by multiple times each day to check on his crew to make sure everything was going well. I couldn?t be happier with my new deck! I will not hesitate to call this company for any future projects."

"Man, it's so expensive for anything you have to do to your house. Sticker shock is crazy but once you get over the fact that no matter who you hire, it's going to cost more than you expected then you can find the best team for the job. I chose deck because they simply specialize in decks. It wasn't cheap but they weren't crazy expensive like some of the other quotes I got. I had one quote $40k to replace a few boards and paint the entire deck and stairs. Another company wanted $20k, another company told me to knock it down. WHAT? Anyway I went with Ideck for $4500. They were quick and used the good paint and primer."

"Our front yard needed some structure. Gadi helped design and build two entry pillars in stone masonry, plus a new walkway to the door. The old path was narrow and cracked, and the new one is wide and fits the property better. The pillars gave us a real entrance feel. They also ran low-voltage lights inside the pillars so they light-up at night. It's not flashy, just clean and sharp. The stone matches the front steps, and everything feels like it belongs now. Gadi and his crew kept things simple and stuck to our request. Would work with them again."

"Felipe's wood working skills are fantastic. He had to replace a section of redwood molding around a window on a second story. The replacement molding wasn't an exact profile match but after he was done installing and painting, you would never know. It looks perfect. I also hired him to clean off a shed roof that was a mess. It turned out to be more work than he expected but he honored his bid and did another great job and cleaned up beautifully. He is a really great guy and we look forward to having him help us with our bathroom remodel."

"We did a whole kitchen remodel. David was very knowledgeable and recommended a wall removal which completely changed the look of our kitchen and opened it up. Everyone that worked on the kitchen was very professional and they stuck to their schedule. They were pretty quick getting us back in our kitchen and it turned our beautiful. I absolutely love my kitchen and I am so happy I chose CA Cabinets."

"I needed an exterior door replaced and was dreading the project because there were complications including rotten wood and irregular framing as old houses some times have. Guilmar's crew did a fanatic job. They were knowledge, efficient, and clean. After this experience, I scheduled several other projects with him."

"You get what you pay for folks - it is that simple. I needed help with what sounded to be a simple job (install a dog door) but I knew wasn't (was going in where an existing dog door was located - but not the same size/construction). My husband and I are pretty aggressive about tackling home repairs on our own, but this was certainly out of our league and would have been botched by your average guy. Frank showed up on time, loved the dog, did an outstanding job and worked with me to keep the job within my budget. Once we got into it, the project was going to take a lot more time than I had anticipated. To make it work, we agreed that I would take on the work to "make it pretty" if he tackled the stuff I wasn't so confident about (framing, plastering, stucco repair, install of new door/device) and it worked out great. After seeing what Frank through to get it installed, I know we made the right choice - this needed a true pro and that is what we got. Everything was clean, the workmanship was excellent and Frank was a pleasure. It helped that I had materials here ready for him to use and had talked through the project carefully with the manager. All in all, for those annoying projects that go beyond our skill set, I know I'll call again."

"Very well. Professional quality job, completed in less time then expected. Sliced up old fiberglass material to fit in trash cans, cleaned up nicely after job completion. Price was based on time and materials, rate as agreed upon and fair."

"They recently completed a remodel of our master bedroom and bathroom, and we are thrilled with the results. Tal's design ideas transformed the space into a luxurious retreat, and his team's craftsmanship brought the vision to life. Throughout the project, Tal and his team were professional, reliable, and committed to ensuring our satisfaction. We couldn't be happier with the outcome and would highly recommend DT Design & Build to anyone looking for a top-notch contractor."
