"The KN Remodeling team did an excellent job at our home completely remodeling 3 bathrooms, painting our entire home and rebuilding a huge planter outside. We trusted them in our home while we are out of town almost the entire time. We hired them back to do additional work in our home that they did quickly and expertly. The team was professional, very friendly, worked quickly, quietly, cleanly, and I would highly recommend them."
"Ramy and his team did a meticulous, fast job replacing the mismatched and beaten up baseboards in our house. Very friendly, communicative, and flexible around our availability. Would definitely hire them again."
"They built the house I needed, thanks to them now I live very happy and grateful to my house and my family, it is a very good company in which I could trust my house and my money, they work professionally, clean, responsible, a company with values, with an excellent ability to do the job. I recommend this good company."
"My boyfriend and I hired Natali after meeting with 4 other contractors. She offered us the best price and she was the most professional and knowledgeable. SoCal builders installed hardwood floors throughout, fully remodeled 3 baths and a full paint job. We then decided to retile the kitchen. Everything looks fantastic, we will use them again no doubt for future projects. Natali was very flexible and accommodating and her crew is very nice as well."
"I'm grateful for the remarkable transformation of my previously awkward 2 bed/1 bath into a fully functional 2 bed/2 bath plus office. After interviewing several companies, I chose HIC Construction because Idan was open-minded, thoughtful, and had good ideas for my first renovation project. Choosing a contractor is like a marriage, and Avi delivered on what was promised, mostly within the expected timeframe. We rearranged plumbing, added a subpanel for a larger kitchen, replaced ducts, added a new furnace, and created two new bathrooms. I appreciate project manager Avi for navigating project issues and assisting in design and investment decisions. I look forward to witnessing your company's continued success."
"The windows I can't say enough good things about Universal Home Design. Ouriel is a great contractor,who is all about details and quality work. This is the second time I have worked with him. The first time he helped me remodel my kitchen,it came out beautifully. I recently had him put in new windows in my condo( 10 windows). He worked with me from start to finish. He was very knowledgeable about the windows and helped me with all the questions. Even after the work was finished he called me to make sure I was happy with the job. Universal Home Design is definitely one of the best. sincerely,Daniel M. The windows I can't say enough good things about Universal Home Design.

"I recently hired Evolution Contracting for baseboard work in my home, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the results. Ulisses was incredibly quick and attentive to respond from the start. Not only was the craftsmanship excellent, but he is also very personable and easy to approach. It’s a relief to find someone who does great work and is easy to communicate with. I’m very happy with the job he did and will definitely be using him again for future projects!"
"The Home Remodeling Guys came to our rescue after a previous contractor left our kitchen remodel incomplete, having taken our money without finishing the job. Our home was in rough shape—lacking floors, windows, countertops, cabinets, and even a functional bathroom on the first floor, making it nearly unlivable. Taking on a project under these circumstances is risky, given the uncertainty of the previous work. However, the team at The Home Remodeling Guys proved to be true professionals. After assessing the situation, they quickly provided an estimate and immediately got to work. Their crew began the project the following week and completed it in record time—just in time for the holidays. We are incredibly grateful to The Home Remodeling Guys for their exceptional work. If you're looking for a contractor you can trust for any remodeling project, I highly recommend this team. They are honest, hardworking, and skilled in a wide range of services, from electrical and carpentry to plumbing, tiling, and more. Every aspect of our remodel was handled by specialists at The Home Remodeling Guys. A huge thank you to the entire team for transforming our home! We absolutely love our new kitchen!"
"This is my first time working with a contractor and didn’t know what to expect. Overall, I am happy with the work and the team became more like family. I wasn’t happy all the time, and it took longer than expected, but when I expressed it, Gino was quick to make the changes happen even being hands on some of the time. I don’t know what else are out there, since they are my first and only remodel team, but I’m thankful I choose this company to remodel my entire - now beautiful - home."
