"Our kitchen remodel with McCormick Home Builders went beyond our expectations. Leoni and her team took the time to understand exactly what we wanted. The open layout design changed the way we use the space, and it’s been perfect for family gatherings. They were prompt, courteous, and genuinely invested in making sure we were happy. Really impressed!"

"Decided to postpone our project for the time being. Kolby was very professional and his estimate was very detailed. He was very responsive and proactive. Appreciate the advice that he passed along to us. We'll definitely consider Wise Builders on future projects."

"We found Landmark construction energy crew, after being frustrated in the past from other contractors. From the initial meeting that we had with Charlie, we were impressed. Their values of customer satisfaction and their deliver everything they said. Charlie was the manager of the work and he was on time for all the meetings that we had with him. He was very straight, kindly and motivated to be invited into our house. He came back and took all the measurements that he needed for the kitchen, asked us many questions about what we would like to include in the new kitchen and 3 days after, he brought us a 3D design for us to look at and see how it will most likely look like. It was exciting to see how fast they could generate a nice design. Charlie knew what he’s doing and we were sure he has done this type of jobs many times before. Their prices are reasonable. We wanted our kitchen finished as soon as possible, so we agreed with Charlie to start the following week. That gave us little time to buy all the appliances, hardware, countertops, tiles Etc… Charlie personally went with us to 2 showrooms where we picked out our tiles and countertops. He also helped us to search and buy all the options for the (sink, faucet, hardware and more…). To be honest, I was probably a nightmare type of work. We moved out of our place during the month of the remodeling and we were a little worried that something would go wrong and we would end up on a terrifying remodeling show. Now after this remodeling is over, we can say clearly that is nothing to worry about when Landmark construction energy crew are working at your house. Their workers was clean, friendly, willing to answer questions. I discovered that Charlie visits the job site every few days, but he too sincerely cares about your home. He always called regarding the schedule, timeline or if there was a problem that need to be solved. We asked for changes to the electric wiring after the tiles have been installed. Would I recommend them to others? Absolutely yes. We will refer this company to all our friends."

"Woohooo! Im very happy, finally I have a NEW kitchen thanks to HomeTech!!! For me, the kitchen is one of the most important areas in my apartment, I gotta confess I have a very picky boyfriend, and we've wanted to remodel our kitchen for a while now, we went to many places trying to find the best materials, for the right price, and we where having trouble finding a place that matched our criteria. Then a friend of mine recommended me to HomeTech. First of all the customer service was wonderful, they listened to all our ideas, they came to our apartment, and gave us a few options based on our budget and what we wanted. I really liked the options they had, so we ended up using HomeTech to design our kitchen. And I am glad I did. Our kitchen looks so beautiful; from the tile to our cabinets, a huge makeover. The color, the texture it looks so nice. A well needed upgrade. They did such an amazing job. I would definitely recommend them."

"I had high hopes for this company after my initial contact with them through Angie's list.  I sent an email and got a response back right away from Tal and then we talked about the scope of work needed over the phone and made an appointment for the following week.  When it came time for the contractor to meet me at my home, he never showed and so I called Tal and she informed me that since they were unable to reach me by phone at work and confirm the appointment that day, even though I had made the appointment less than a week prior, and they cancelled the appointment.  I had provided my cell phone as well which she did call but never left a message.  This was extremely frustrating as I had cancelled a meeting in order to be at my home for the appointment time.  I decided to give them a second chance and rescheduled the appointment.
The second time the contractor did arrive on time and we went over the scope of work together.  My ex arrived towards the end of the walk through (we are working on fixing up our house together so we can sell it).  At this time the contractor started talking primarily to him.  We asked what he thought the general cost of the work would be, a rough estimate and he said he thought it would be anywhere from $8-12K.  He told us that his technician would be in the area the following day and that he could come by and put together an itemized list of the work done and give us a formal quote.  
Even though I had called and set up the appointment and had the majority of the communication with the company, the contractor called my ex the following week, not me,  and told him that the technician's quote was for $18-22K!  More than double what he initially thought the cost would be.  I asked my ex to request a written quote for the work so we could see where all of the money was going towards.  We never heard from the contractor again.
I followed up a few weeks later through Angies list email with Tal, the woman who I had made the appointment with to find out when we could expect a written quote and she said she would check and we have not heard a peep since.  
Since our dealings with this contractor we have hired another who quoted us $3400 to get all of the work done and who we eventually hired.   I feel like this company just didn't want to do the work for whatever reason and just threw an astronomical price at us hoping that we would just go somewhere else instead of being honest with us and wasting our time. 
Lastly, during the course of our interaction I felt the contractor made comments about our personal situation that were inappropriate and it bothered me that he felt more comfortable talking to my ex who is male, rather than myself who was the one managing the project and money.  

Just wanted to respond to the provider.   I did give an opportunity to provide service after the initial misunderstanding of the missed appointment.  The primary disappointment was that I never received a written quote or a quote to myself over the phone.  I have not received any calls after the visit to my home to my cell or received any voicemails nor did I receive anything via email regarding the quote or any updates.   The only voice message I received on my work phone was after I posted this review.  The issue was not the price as we were willing to pay what it took to get this project done.  There was just zero follow up.

"I want to say big thank you to Dor & Dror from A2Z Remodeling. My parents live in an old house that they bought years ago and never renovated it. Finally they decided to renovate the house specially the kitchen, 2 bathrooms and floors. They received several estimates and decided to go with A2Z Remodeling, all because of Dor and Dror were very communicative and very sensitive to what my parents wanted, dream wise and money wise. Me and my sister came to visit our parents after the construction has been done and we were amazed how beautiful their house look like right now. My parents are thrilled because they feel like they are leaving in a new house having new memories. So once again thank you A2Z Remodeling team for an amazing work and thank you Dor and Dror. I am writing this thank you because my parents I don’t have any social media email and such. I wish, where I live I’ll find a company like A2Z Remodeling when I need to renovate my home."

FAQs for find a custom home builder projects in Oakland, CA

A tiny house is a compact dwelling that revolutionizes living spaces. Averaging 225 square feet but scaling up to 600 square feet, tiny homes demonstrate extraordinary design ingenuity. They seamlessly blend functionality and comfort, proving that limited square footage doesn't mean compromising lifestyle.

Utility bills for a tiny house cost between $100 and $150 per month. The compact design minimizes energy use, especially for heating and cooling, which lowers overall energy consumption. Investment in energy-efficient appliances and improved insulation further secures steady savings. Homeowners benefit from predictable monthly expenses and a cost-effective operating budget that supports sustainable living.
