If you’re looking for reliable, skilled, and trustworthy professionals for a kitchen remodel, Omer and Nave are the people to go with.
Highly recommended!"
"My project involved full remodel of 1 large master bath (>200 sq ft) and some fixture, paint and light work in 2 other bathrooms. I am so happy that I found Eitan and Build the Bay to do the job. Eitan was very professional from day 1, offered me the best price in the Bay Area and helped me pick the parts and fixtures. He is very knowledgeable and has good taste for designing bathrooms. The job finished on time with some delays due to county inspection being on hold due to COVID. I would hire him again!"
"This company is wonderful. They really worked with us on design, functionality, and price where we felt comfortable. The timelines were communicated clearly and often, but finished ahead of expectation. I highly recommend My Construction Group for your remodeling project."
"My dream kitchen was realized thanks to Bay Remodeling Kitchen & Bath. It is superbly made, fashionable, and useful. Every square inch of room is utilized, and their design team made my idea a reality. Now cooking is a pleasure!"
"We had 35 year old backsplash, grout errosion, warpped cabinets.. our kitchen truly needed to join us with the present times. I finally bit the bullet and after requesting a handful of quotes, Liran got back to us the soonest. He was a strong communicator throughout the entire remodel. The timeline he presented took a lot of stress out of the project and we were within our 25k budget. Thanks again lb team!"

"We hired Bayside Builders to do our home renovation project because we needed some help with designing and building a new outdoor fireplace. They were able to come up with an impressive design, plus they did such a great job with the construction! The pergolas they built for us are doing wonders in keeping the backyard cool- we love them! We would definitely recommend this company as they provide high quality service at very reasonable prices."
"Having purchased this second home out of state and literally knowing nothing about the area and what was needed to set up the reconstruction, he was highly recommended by our real estate agent and had great references from other homeowners in the area. Eric helped us find a local architect/designer, worked with the building planning district, water district, etc. etc. so he's much more than just a General Contractor. We simply could not have completed the work without him. As with all remodels, it's stressful and he was the calm, steady person needed to keep everyone in check. He had great sub-contractors and every portion of the work was completed as guaranteed per the contract. When there were hiccups, he fixed it. He did all the hard work, just coordinated with us to be sure we got what we expected from each phase. The results exceeded all our expectations. No hesitation with recommending him for any job, large or small. "
An architect is usually involved in the process of determining the layout and structural features and requirements of the home itself, taking into account the local codes, climate, and materials needed to make the home structurally sound. Architects may communicate more with contractors and subcontractors throughout the building process. In comparison to architects, interior designers typically focus on the aesthetics of a home interior and possibly exterior, helping the homeowner decide on color schemes, textures, and materials to incorporate into the design.
Building designers charge between $2,000 and $50,000, depending on project scope, complexity, and customization.
Yes, you can draw your own deck plans in many cases. However, you must know your local building codes and be familiar with carpentry principles. Even then, it's always best to run your plans by a professional contractor with experience building decks, whether you choose to DIY some of the build or not.
Structural engineers draw structural plans, which include detailed drawings of the structural components of a home only. Complete house plans will require additional work from an architect or draftsperson, whose drawings will take the structural drawings into account. They’ll also include more details about the finishing materials and layout of a home, including everything from roofing and flooring materials to the position of furniture, light fixtures, switches, and plumbing fixtures.
British architect John Nash is credited with creating the Italianate style of architecture. The style was further popularized in the U.S. by landscape architect Andrew Jackson Downing and architect Calvert Vaux. The style spread across the U.S. due to Downing’s popular book on the style and the availability of plans and materials due to the mass production of the Industrial Revolution.
