Get matched with top addition to existing structure builders in Verdugo City, CA

"Our initial meeting with Suj was great. Initially, we had in mind a much larger job. He had quoted us $3000 for the closet demolition / wall rebuild (non-load bearing), packaged with several other items. Together with the fee for drawings ($4000) and permits, this was a bit higher than we anticipated. However, we decided to go with Suj due to his responsiveness and professionalism. Out of our other quotes, Suj’s pricing was middle of the pack - not the cheapest or most expensive. When the drawings were complete and evaluated, he gave us an updated cost of $6000 over text message. The scope of work had changed, and this was no longer part of a bigger project - understandable. The issue was when he gave us the official estimate a week later and up’d the price once again to $9000. When asked what happened, his exact words were “well, I need to get paid too”. He had weeks to consider before quoting the $6000 and nothing had changed since then. The extra $3000 may be insignificant compared to most renovation costs, but for us in our first home, this was back breaking. We continued with Suj since we were already locked in and well past the 3 day cancellation period. Their work for the most part was exceptional. The new wall blended perfectly into our existing structure, and the ceiling patch was also well done. The problem here was the floor. They had dug up a 1” deep pit in the floor, likely to remove the wall studs. However, they did not patch the floor or even let us know this was going to be an issue. We were never told about the pit until I decided to check in on their progress one day towards the end of the wall build. This required us to pay a handyman to come in next day on a weekend to patch the concrete since we had cabinets being installed the following Tuesday. Suj was aware of this and did not believe it pertinent information. Overall, Suj and SoCal Builders do quality work, but the issues in pricing consistency lost us before the work even started. Not even telling us that we’d be left with a 1” deep pit in our floor after was another huge issue which should’ve been brought up much earlier. This was our first experience with a contractor and I’m not sure if this is typical or not. However, it’s enough to make me doubt I’d contact them for any future work."

"Working with Nathan & KN Remodeling was the best decision we made when undertaking our garage conversion job. Nathan understood exactly what we wanted, knew our budget parameters and provided us with a range of options that helped us stay within what we were seeking to spend. We wanted it to be NICE, but didn't need to over-do any of the finishes and spend needlessly on areas that were going to be used in-frequently. The end result was fantastic. The workmanship was of the highest order, the job was executed efficiently and with constant communication and oversight. The whole job was stress free and delivered on time. I can't recommend KN Remodeling highly enough!"

"The team at Creative Home Remodeling Group did an amazing job building an ADU for my backyard. Kris was friendly, professional, and incredibly easy to work with. He made the entire process smooth and stress-free, from permitting to completion. Quality of the work was excellent, and we couldn't be happier with the result. We will definitely use them again. Highly recommend!"

"I needed a new house built on a complex foundation. Construction Masters did an amazing job from start to finish. Mickey and Moshe listened to everything I was looking for and worked with my vision to turn it into a reality. Their attention to sight lines and details are excellent. Mickey took me through all the work of choosing lights, cabinets, fixtures, etc. The two of them work so well together! Mickey and Moshe were there every day of the week to provide oversight on the project. The philosophy of the company is one of excellence and honesty. I do not know this because it is on a website or brochure; I know it because I had the pleasure of being their client. If they create anything, from a stair banister to a luxury bath or a whole house, it will be done to the highest standards. The work they did building the whole house was so superb that when they finished, I asked to be their client again without considering any other builders. I am going to build an ADU on the other side of my property and it will be built by Construction Masters."

"We recently had our kitchen remodeled, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations. From the initial consultation to the final installation, the team was professional, punctual, and paid incredible attention to every detail. They kept the work area clean, communicated with us throughout the project, and delivered exactly what they promised."

"The adage “You get what you pay for” rings true with MF Construction. When we were in the market for a general contractor to build our two-bedroom/two-bath ADU in San Marino, we interviewed several general contractors. Mike Maman of MF Construction was one of them. Mike showed us several of his projects as well as his own custom home. We were extremely impressed with the end results. After reviewing several competitive bids, we selected Mike because of his 40+ years of experience in building high-quality homes. During the construction of our ADU, Mike was just a text or phone call away. He kept us informed of upcoming events and visited our job site almost daily, sometimes more than once a day. He was present at all 12 of the City inspections. Every step along the way, we noted the high quality of materials Mike uses from the Ganahl lumber to the thick insulation and roofing paper to the copper pipes and shower hot mop, and mold-resistant drywall. Mike uses materials which meets or exceeds code requirements. Everyone on Mike’s team is extremely skilled in his/her craft, many having worked with him for decades. Mike is old school and does not take any shortcuts. Along with high quality construction and materials, Mike is extremely efficient. Our ADU was completed in four months, as promised. Progress was made every day. From the rough work to the finishes, Mike scheduled his team members just in time which resulted in an extremely efficient and smooth workflow. Mike builds with his heart. His passion is infectious which inspires his team members to do their best work. The results are evident in the finished product. Our neighbors and friends are extremely impressed with the quality and build of our ADU. If you value a well-built home and appreciate attention to detail, you will not be disappointed with Mike Maman. You WILL get what you pay for with MF Construction."

"I recently used Platinum Builders for a new home addition and had a very positive experience. As an engineer with extensive experience building and renovating homes, I originally planned to manage the project myself and subcontract each phase. However, with frequent work and travel, I realized I needed a turnkey solution. Devon, my project manager, was professional, honest, responsive, and worked around my schedule. Although two other quotes were substantially lower, I chose Platinum because of my confidence in their team. The footing and framing crews were excellent. When quality issues arose during finishing, Devon quickly addressed them. I would definitely choose Platinum Builders again."

Everything went very well.  The job took a little longer than expected (estimate was about 3 weeks for the whole job, but it took almost 4).   I was okay with that because it was a very big job, and I had a feeling it may take a little longer anyways.  I am happy that they didn't rush through anything just to meet a deadline. 

Gino was great to work with and gave me many great ideas for tile colors and designs, as well as colors and designs for the custom vanity and countertop.  He also made sure that the different specialist crews started their respective phases of the project on schedule and ensured that there was seamless transition from one phase of the project to the next.  The cost of the project may seem like a lot, but that is because it is a very big bathroom.  I also requested to add a few things such as more lighting as the project went on, so that added a little to the cost.  I gave the pricing a B instead of A because Gino went with a higher quality/higher cost lighting whereas I would have been okay with a lower cost lighting option from Home Depot or Lowe's.  That isn't a big deal though and is partially my fault since I could have done my own research and instructed him to go with the lower cost option.  However Gino is all about delivering a very high quality product, so his choice of lighting is consistent with that. 

Gino also makes himself available to rectify any lingering issues that may arise after the job is complete.  One example is that the water wasn't going down the drain of the shower properly the first time I used the shower, however when I brought it up to him, Gino came out and took care of the issue the same day.  It turned out to be a little debris blocking the drain from the tiling, which had to be cleared out, so not a big deal.  That gave me assurance that should anything else arise (I doubt anything will) in the future that he will come back and take care of it.    

Overall I am very satisfied with the job.  Everything was very well planned out, the communication from Gino was outstanding, and although the job took slightly longer, that wasn't a big deal because the excess time ensured increased quality.  I would recommend Gino and his crew for any job, big or small!

"I hired Ramy and his team to help me build out some closets. He was very communicative and easy to work with. The team showed up on time, collaborated with me on the design, worked fast, were very respectful of the home the whole time, and cleaned up nicely. Highly recommend R Design for any contract work!"

"We hired McCormick Home Builders to remodel our living room, and we are beyond pleased with the result. The team was professional, worked efficiently, and Aris design ideas made a huge difference. The room feels so much brighter and more spacious. This was the best decision we made for our home, and we were already planning our next remodel with them."
