Get matched with top garage remodelers in Portola Valley, CA

"I hired Sky Tech Builders to remodel my bathroom. They were referred to me by a neighbor friend that hired them and was very happy with the work and the results of the remodeling. The project manager and his team showed up on time. They were professional, knowledgeable and attentive. The end result was that the new bathroom was delivered on time and budget, and it looks fantastic! I would wholeheartedly recommend Sky Tech Builders to everyone I know."

"Absolutely thrilled with our garage remodel. We added storage, insulation, and epoxy floors—it now looks like a showroom! The team worked efficiently and kept us informed at every stage. It feels like we gained an entirely new room in our home!"

"I debated leaving a review for the past two years as Avi, the general contractor, was a nice guy and I believe means well, but in since the remodel of two bathrooms and a kitchen, quite a bit of the work from his company has proven to either fall apart, be of poor workmanship, or simply be installed or built incorrectly. There are so many things that were done wrong, it would take forever to list, so I will mention the top few. I have plenty of pictures to illustrate the details but am not being given the link to upload them on here, for some reason I found Bay Remodeling Kitchen and Bath by reading several online reviews and when I called the company, the owner, Avi, did arrive at my home promptly and gave a very professional presentation complete with previous work, which seemed of high quality. I felt immediately comfortable entrusting him with the remodel of ONE bathrooms and a kitchen of a home I recently purchased as my primary residence. I was excited as my son had just been born and the house was to be our ‘forever home’. Day 1: I went to the house to find his demolition crew was busy demolishing....the wrong bathroom. They had gotten so far into the work it was past the point of ‘no return’. To his credit, Avi did immediately contact me and apologize. Because that bathroom was intended to EVENTUALLY be remodeled, we worked out a fair price to include it in the overall remodel. Problem solved? Unfortunately, no. Weeks on: Both bathrooms were completed and I was happy with the result. Then the kitchen. Demolition went smoothly, new wiring, plumbing and flooring were installed and the cabinets were next. I drove to the house to find....the brand new refrigerator had been STOLEN. I called Avi, who was out of town, then the police to file a report. When Avi’s foreman showed up, he expressed his suspicion the cabinet installers may have stolen it. I didn’t point fingers and patiently waited for the police to complete their investigation. Nothing came of it as it was a ‘...his word against theirs’ type of situation. I ultimately filed an insurance claim, paid the deductible and moved on. Admittedly, there is no way I can prove Avi’s guys had anything to do with it. Two days later: cabinets installed and most of the hardware had been drilled into brand new drawers and doors crooked. Pictures included with a level for reference. I was met with immediate resistance from Avi and his foreman stating, ‘...it isn’t that bad...’. Maybe not. The readers on this review can decide.After completion: 3 electrical outlets on the walls opposite the kitchen are without power. Avi shows up with his foreman and their response: ‘...we don’t even know these outlets ever had power even before the remodel...’. True, but what are the odds? Two years on: I finally notice the stoppers for the all of the drains in the bathrooms were never installed. I rarely use the bathroom sinks for more than brushing my teeth, so I don’t need to fill a sink with water but my wife recently discovered this when washing something. As a coincidence, I recently found these tucked in a corner of the garage. If the actual pop-up drains are still in boxes, I have no idea what is actually installed in the sinks. Little details I recently noticed: the ‘hot’ and ‘cold’ water positions on all the kitchen sinks are inconsistent, cabinet doors are uneven, floor moulding in more concealed locations never installed, etches can be seen in the ceiling where recess lighting had been misaligned, leaving the initial partial cuts in the ceiling in view. These problems were brought up later to Avi but at the time he was still searching for a construction team to work with as he apparently moves from one team to the next. Reading these reviews, I see he occasionally finds a good crew to work with, but a note to future customers: Avi and many general contractors subcontract with myriad plumbers, electricians, tile workers, etc. If he has a few bad subcontractors, you result might be similar. Good workers will likely produce a good result. Buyer beware... Updated 5/17/24 Addendum: Avi recently reached out regarding the quality of the previous project and said he now has a good, reliable, meticulous crew that he trusts. I took the risk, but let them back into the house. They were, indeed, a good, quality crew and fixed the as many of the mistakes and shortcuts the previous crew made and took. I am very happy with the outcome. As my earlier review stated, Avi is a good, honest guy but the quality of the work being done will 100% depend on the crew hired. Thank you for following up, Avi. -Chris"

"WOW! GILI IS AMAZING!!! We moved into a new home after I remodeled it for 9 months. He remodeled my apartment from top to bottom including 3 bathrooms, floors, fireplace, etc. Gili was there at all the times right from the beginning. Luckily we met before we decided on anything and he came over and gave us lots of great ideas for a remodel even explaining the difference between refacing and all new cabinetry. The styles have gone from contemporary to modern to luxury designs in our bathrooms. He understood our frustrations with the remodel and he was extremely patient and really wanted to help us out. I was very happy with the remodel and the excellent time frame they completed the work. It was done in about 5 1/2 weeks. Clever Design and Remodeling is definitely a company that we will be recommending to anyone that needs remodeling."

"Our experience with R AND B Master Construction began with a interior renovation in Santa Clara. Our project manager was responsive, while they change orders were clear and approved first. They matched new finishes to the existing home. What stood out most was the care they put into the details. The process felt organized, and the team was easy to work with from beginning to end. We are pleased with the finished project and would definitely hire them again."

"We found Cal Green Remodeling while searching for companies on google. After meeting a few companies, we decided Shay was the best choice for us. The main reason we went with Shay and Cal Green, was because of his honest appraoch to the the whole process. While it appeared the others were saying what we wanted to hear, Shay told us the facts without attempting to lighten the situstion. For example the timeline with Shay seemed realistc compared to the others and also he provided a very detailed estimate that covered all cost and potential cost involved. Simply stated Shay made us feel comfortable. As we expected, he was the best choice. The process was smooth and Shay kept us in constant communication with updates, and completed the work on schedule. Our kitchen came out amazing and we love it! I would highly recomend Shay and Cal Green Remodeling for your home renovation. Thanks again to Shay and Cal Green Remodeling!"

"Efficient hard working team - helps identify and solve a tile deck/roof over the garage. Kept us appraised along the way and with every decision. They replace water damage flooring and replaced and sealed the flashing between the house and deck. Very satisfied with their work and the way they work. Great team."

"Sarai and Ivan and their team did a great job on the house. The house is old (1950) and have been neglected. It requires a lot of efforts to bring it back to life. Ivan and his team spent over a week washing, scraping, filling, sanding and re-glazing all the windows (they are in very bad shape). It was a tedious and painstaking detail work which their team took extra care to do a great job. Sarai was prompt answering all my questions and explaining the whole process. Everyone on their team was nice, polite and extremely hardworking. Ivan and Sarai are fabulous, very accommodating and easy to work with. The house looks 1,000% better!"
