"I did not fully know this about me, but I am the client from H***. However, Mr Gino and everyone at imperial remodeling went above and beyond any expectations I could have had. And I am a perfectionist; which does not exist, but no one could have gotten closer than these guys. We did a complete remodel of three bathrooms floors, walls paint etc. I’ve had custom glass installed. And they built out a whole new bathroom for me without destroying the design and functionality of my beautiful mid-century modern home. I am definitely going to work with them again. I hope they work with me( Please read first sentence again). You will not find better quality and affordability in the same place as I did. Thank you imperial remodeling for treating my home as it was your own and for caring about us and exceeding all our expectations. You are the best at home remodel and I am glad we met!"

"Jeff, Leonard and all the workers are the BEST !! My new yard is my favorite place to hang out. They listened to my dream, took into consideration my budget and gave me what I asked for.

Green Republic Landscapes is a premier landscape design-build firm dedicated to transforming outdoor spaces into stunning, functional environments. We specialize in creating customized landscaping solutions that reflect each client's unique vision and lifestyle. Our comprehensive services include: Garden Design and Installation, Expert Planting, Landscape Lighting, Irrigation Systems, Flagstone & Paver Installation and many other high-quality landscaping services. With extensive industry experience and a passion for excellence, GRL delivers results that consistently exceeds expectations. From the initial consultation to the final reveal, we ensure a smooth , enjoyable process-and an outdoor space you'll love for years to come. Let us bring your dream landscape to life. Minimum project investment: $5,000.00

"Based on the positive reviews of Green Republic on Yelp and Angie's List and our initial interactions with Motti we were excited to have them landscape our front and back yard. Unfortunately, our experience was not as positive as others. The positives were: (1) that the pricing was fair and the bulk of the work was completed very efficiently. The negatives were: (1) despite telling us the work would be done by Green Republic employees all of the work was done by subcontractors with no supervision from Green Republic, (2) though most of the work was done very efficiently the last 10% dragged on for months with lots of promises that it would be finished by a certain date only to be notified of further delays at the last minute (definitely don't pay these guys until the work is complete), and (3) though we were told all the work and plants were warranted when we had issues they didn't warrant their work. Without any supervision the subcontractors did subpar work. A few examples of this were: 1) We picked out pavers and we asked them not to set them until we saw them to confirm they were the correct pavers. Instead we walked out one day to see that they were setting pavers and they were the wrong ones. They told us these were better more expensive pavers which may have been true, but they were the wrong style, so it didn't matter. We asked that they get the pavers we asked for which the subcontractor was not happy about and begrudingly did. 2) The old plants and roots were not properly removed, so within a month we had the old plants growing back through the ground cover and wood chips. 3) Drip lines were installed, but no one bothered to check if the spouts were open or if all the plants actually were receiving water and a new sprinkler controller was installed and never programmed or turned on for two weeks. Rather than provide the instructions to us they threw them out or we would have done it ourselves. 4) They installed decomposed granite, but in one area it was so thin that the first time it rained, the DG was washed away and the soil was exposed. In addition to these issues, they didn't set the pavers in a straight line, we had several plants die, and the sod that was installed developed dead spots within two weeks. We were left to deal with disgruntled sub contractors, Green republic pushed back on all warranty issues providing excuse after excuse as to why it wasn't their problem (even for dead plants that most nurseries would warrant and happily replace). For us Motti and Green Republic were a major headache. We are very disappointed particularly given all the other positive reviews."

"Dee is fantastic! We loved the design Mike came up with for our backyard makeover. Then once construction started we realized we had made choices that needed to be changed. In every case Dee's suggestions (stucco the walls instead of paint, don't use DG next to the pool, run wood fence topper horizontally) turned out to the best. We are so glad we listened to him. Our finished backyard looks like an art installation but one where you can feel comfortable and at home. Now a year later we had them come back for a few tweaks and again Dee's suggestions were the right ones. We are happy we choose G & L and plan to use them again next year when we tackle our front yard."

"Stuff happens, and this business knows how to handle it! We had a stain on the ceiling. Ofri from BTB came over and turned on the water from the upstairs bathtub and then the shower stall. The ceiling became moist after the shower was turned on. Ofri then came back with a plumber. He turned on the upstairs bathtub. After they left, water dripped from the ceiling. Ofri had the plumber immediately send over a team for a service call. They broke open a hole in the ceiling and found that a pipe leading to the bathtub was so rusty it had holes. They took videos showing other pipes leading to the bathtub were also very rusty. While the team was still there, Ofri gave us prices, sent over the paperwork and the pipes were replaced within a of couple hours. Fabulous! Ofri had thought it would take a lot longer to complete the plumbing work. Therefore, her pricing did not align with the actual work performed. She brought in Alon, who substantially reduced the price to our satisfaction. Their responsiveness and reasonableness earned them my highest rating. Thank you Ofri, Alon and the BTB team!"

"I recently had Buildwright Construction remodel my entire home, and I'm thrilled with the new look. They have a laid-back California style that's both cool & caring. There was a small mix-up with the paint in one room, but as soon as I noticed, the project manager took care of it.

Creative Home Remodeling Group is a family owned business with a professional crew that has been working together for almost 15 years. We desire to enhance the lives of our clients by providing high quality projects with hands-on service and minimal disruption to the family environment, building trust through communication and attention to detail. Since 2000, Creative Home Remodeling Group, Inc. has helped Southern California area homeowners make their remodeling dreams a reality. Our experienced craftsmen and personal attention to every project ensures that every customer is 100% satisfied. As the owner, I personally oversee every job from start to finish along with my staff. Once a job begins, you can be assured that each day we will be working towards it's completion. As a member of NARI, I have pledged to live up to the organization's high standards of honesty, integrity and responsibility.

"Creative Home Remodeling saved us and our retaining wall project from disaster. We had originally worked with two other contractors and our city for 15 months and all we had to show for the time and money spent was a huge hole and an even bigger pile of dirt in our backyard. When Ovi, the Creative Home Remodeling Project Manager, answered our call for an estimate, he was not only professional and knowledgeable, but also compassionate about all we had been through. He gave us a fair estimate to complete the job, but also his word that they would not give up until the job was complete and we were fully satisfied. Working with our city was very challenging, but they never gave up, meeting every requirement to gain approval and keeping us informed every step of the way. When we finally obtained approval, they immediately got to work, and the job was completed within a couple of weeks. Then they finished the job with lovely pavers and grass sod, so that our backyard was once again lovely, and finished just in time for our family’s Easter celebration. The work they did was excellent and we highly recommend them!"

"Creative Home Remodeling saved us and our retaining wall project from disaster. We had originally worked with two other contractors and our city for 15 months and all we had to show for the time and money spent was a huge hole and an even bigger pile of dirt in our backyard. When Ovi, the Creative Home Remodeling Project Manager, answered our call for an estimate, he was not only professional and knowledgeable, but also compassionate about all we had been through. He gave us a fair estimate to complete the job, but also his word that they would not give up until the job was complete and we were fully satisfied. Working with our city was very challenging, but they never gave up, meeting every requirement to gain approval and keeping us informed every step of the way. When we finally obtained approval, they immediately got to work, and the job was completed within a couple of weeks. Then they finished the job with lovely pavers and grass sod, so that our backyard was once again lovely, and finished just in time for our family’s Easter celebration. The work they did was excellent and we highly recommend them!"

Second story addition building services FAQs

For many homeowners, building up is worth the expense because it provides the extra bedrooms or living areas that can’t be accommodated within the existing footprint. A larger, updated home often commands a higher resale price, recouping a sizable share of the project cost while allowing you to stay in the neighborhood you love. Run the numbers with a real estate agent and contractor to ensure the expected return and day-to-day benefits align with your goals.

Whether it makes more sense to build up or out depends on your lot, budget, and local code. Building up preserves yard space and involves less foundation work, but you may need to vacate the home during construction. Building out avoids staircases and can proceed while you stay put; however, it encroaches on the yard and may face setback limits. Compare both options with your contractor before making a decision.

A structural engineer will first inspect the existing foundation for cracks, footings, and load capacity. Depending on the findings, the crew may pour new concrete footings, install steel or concrete piers, add reinforced beams, or tie additional rebar into the slab. These upgrades redistribute the weight of the new floor and bring the structure up to code. Your contractor will outline the specific reinforcement plan and timeline once the engineering report is complete.
