"The owner, Isaac Amar was very professional and thorough in answering my many questions about the work and materials that would be done and used on my deck. His workers were on time and respectful of me and my home. I have recommended Much Better Construction to my neighbors."

"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."

"Encore Builders, especially Brandon and Ozzy, deserve all the praise in the world! We recently purchased a home and the sidewalk area was looking quite frumpy. I decided some artificial grass would be a nice clean touch. I did a quick Yelp search and found encore builders. I also looked at their instagram account and was amazed at some before and afters. Although this is a small job I knew theyâ d be perfect for it. Brandon and Oz arrived at the time we had set and gave me an estimate on the spot! They told me the job would only take a few hours and sure enough their crew was in and out. It was painless and Iâ m so happy that the exterior of our home matches the look and feel of the home itself. I have recently acquired a few properties I plan to rent out and will be sure to give Oz and Brandon a call. They really are the best. You can tell right away that they are truthful and trustworthy. 5/5 stars easy!!!!!"

"I was totally wrong in thinking that this company would do a good job because in reality they did something spectacular, the entire work team was very kind and attentive to our family, we are a family that does not open the door to anyone but we decided to trust American Professional Builders, Jose was very friendly and understanding with all of our needs, he always tried to adapt the work to each one's style, my children's rooms are comfortable, elegant and at the same time they can play and have fun with the design that Jose created especially for them, our yards are safe for the children and at the same time we can enjoy a weekend with the wonderful Deck with fireplace and kitchen, the pool with games that Jose recommended and that he built is beautiful and fun for the family, the type of tile he used looks luxurious and the pavers he installed with the artificial grass around it were exactly what we dreamed of, we are going to build an ADU soon and we are already working on the pl"

"I'm so happy that I found David at CA Cabinets! He was here checking on the work daily to make sure everything ran smoothly which is rare for a contractor as usually they just come a few times during the process. Everything is beautiful and he went to extra mile to shop with me for the flooring tiles, quartz countertops, cabinets and sink. I'm super picky as an artist / former fashion designer and he was able to help me create exactly what I had designed. He had great ideas such as adding a waterfall edge to the quartz countertop and a window sill piece from quartz as well. This project was a complete gut and rebuild due to a dishwasher leak - homeowner's insurance claim. I was having issues with my insurance and David went above and beyond to help me navigate the insurance issues so we could complete the project. He is always very prompt and organized. Some of the other contractors that I had previously contacted could not even be bothered to give me a call back or show up on time to a scheduled appointment but David was able to meet with me right away and always notified me of the work schedules. Pricing was reasonable and in line with other estimates I received."

"Words can't really express how thankful I am for Raul, Dubon Construction, and his entire TEAM. We had a very challenging project with a 100+ year old home and a very tight timeline. We had to install new windows, as well as repair window sashes that i had 4 OTHER CONTRACTORS come out to tell me could not be done. Raul was the only person who came out that would even attempt to tackle it, and they did an amazing job. AMAZING! He and his team were such a pleasure to work with. In addition, he was so accommodating and flexible with our tough schedule. Multiple reschedules, and made time for us often. He was responsive to calls and very communicative! For any work we have in the future, we will be calling Dubon Construction. I can't recommend him highly enough. Raul, THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts, we could not have gotten through those inspections without you."
