"I am so happy I ended up working with MegaBuiilders. Belin was a pleasure to work with and always responsive to my calls and concerns. Our house turned out even better than I anticipated. I was impressed that so many of the guys working on the job have been with the company for many years, this says a lot about a company and how they take care of their workers. All of the subs who worked on my house were professional and easy to work and communicate with and the quality of their work was top notch.

I will definitely be using Mega Builders for any future projects."

"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."

"THE WORST EXPERIENCE EVER! We signed a contract with Yakov to design an ADU.

The mistakes and time in between for her to submit corrections were so long there was no reason for it.

Abraham Building & Consulting can handle any of your construction related needs! We offer a wide range of services including general remodel, home addition, bathroom & kitchen remodel, landscaping, hardscaping, interior/exterior painting, roofing, deck installs and more! What sets us apart from the rest? Not only are we known for our craftsmanship, but we are constantly praised for our excellent customer service! We hold our standards for customer service as we do our work- of the utmost importance. When you hire Abraham Building & Consulting, you're not just hiring a contractor, you're hiring peace of mind.

"I wish I never hired them. I am now two years into a project they told me would be 6 months total but they were contracting for 12 months "just in case". This was in June 2022. As I write this on May 30, 2024, they continue to delay. Have no control over their subcontractors and continually say "it is out of their control". I have been told multiple times that some of their subcontractors "handle multi-million dollar places" so "they doubt they will ever meet with you." They have made enemies with our architect, engineers, and even pissed off city inspectors with their attitude. But of course, it was always the other person's fault. The latest example is over the cabinets. Rani said on April 4th that they would be "installed next week". We are now on May 30th and only a portion of cabinets are done. They then tried to invoice us for the completion. It has been excuse after excuse. Install was finally supposed to happen Tuesday. They told us Tuesday morning that the cabinet guy's shop was broken into so therefore they can't come this week either... but won't provide when they can come. Any time we try to get answers they say "it's out of their control". They have no accountability for anything. This morning, the shower door guy "got confused" and went to another job in Hollywood and don't know when he will be able to install. It's never-ending. What they truly care about is easy flips and things they can post on their instagram. Seriously, don't work with them. It has been a nightmare. They continue to blow past every timeline and deadline they give you as "approximate" even when you agree to hard dates (with built in cushion time for their numerous mistakes and oversights). Why write a bad review? Is an act of desperation at this point because I just want them to get out of my house and complete the promised work."

FAQs for kitchen remodel projects in South El Monte, CA

Your galley kitchen needs adequate clearance around any island installation to maintain functionality. Most galley kitchens lack sufficient width for traditional islands, as these layouts prioritize efficiency in smaller spaces. 

If your kitchen has an unusual width, consult with a kitchen designer who can evaluate your specific dimensions and recommend appropriate solutions. For narrower spaces, consider alternatives like rolling carts or narrow work tables that provide additional surface area without permanently restricting movement.

Kitchen remodels require six to 10 weeks for completion, though timelines vary based on project scope and material availability. Simple updates like cabinet refinishing and countertop replacement might finish within a few weeks, while comprehensive renovations involving structural changes often extend beyond two months. 

Planning stages add approximately four weeks before construction begins. Maintaining clear communication with your contractor and ordering materials early helps prevent unnecessary delays.

Common errors include insufficient clearance between opposing countertops, inadequate lighting that creates shadowy work areas, and poor storage planning that leaves countertops cluttered. Some homeowners select oversized appliances that overwhelm the space or invest in expensive features that don't address fundamental workflow issues. 

Careful planning, accurate measurements, and consultation with experienced professionals help avoid these pitfalls and ensure your renovation successfully addresses your kitchen's specific challenges.

Whether expansion makes sense depends on your home's layout, your budget, and your long-term plans. Combining a galley kitchen with neighboring spaces creates more open, flexible layouts that many buyers prefer. However, removing walls involves substantial costs, particularly if they contain plumbing, electrical systems, or structural elements. 

Sometimes, optimizing your existing galley layout through better storage solutions and lighting proves more cost-effective than expansion. Consult with a contractor to evaluate specific costs for your situation.

Effective galley kitchen lighting combines multiple sources to eliminate shadows and create visual spaciousness. Overhead fixtures provide general illumination, while under-cabinet lighting illuminates work surfaces directly. Consider recessed ceiling fixtures that don't protrude into limited headspace. 

Lighting with dimming capabilities allows adjustment for different activities. Reflective surfaces like glass tile backsplashes or glossy cabinet finishes help bounce light throughout the space, reducing the corridor effect common in galley layouts.
