"My journey began when I met Mario from Be Home Remodeling. I started with just one bathroom remodel, and I was immediately impressed by the professionalism, attention to detail, and high-quality craftsmanship he and his team delivered. The communication throughout the project was clear and consistent, and they made sure every step met my expectations. Since then, I?ve trusted Be Home Remodeling with additional projects and have always been more than satisfied with the results. Highly recommend Mario and his team to anyone looking for reliable and high-quality construction work"

"Danny took on our project, which was to build a home on an oddly-shaped, canyon side lot. We hired him as he had experience building on hillsides as well as with working with our architect. Ours was a very difficult project; from Coastal Commission to City approval, as well as with structural engineering. Danny had a plan for how to access and install our caissons into the hillside from day one. Not only that, his crew and sub-contractors showed up everyday, on-time for our year and a 1/2 building period. We communicated nearly every day via text or phone calls; Danny and his supervisor Scott were always VERY responsive. They were also open to alternate ideas in order to cut down construction costs. We've now been in our new home one year, and can honestly say that we are very happy with the craftsmanship and quality of our home. Moreover, the few small issues that we have had (garage door opener; low water pressure), Danny has continued to be responsive and to send his team back out to assist us over this past year. Overall, DM Building is an honest and earnest group of builders who only want the best for your project. I highly recommend DM Building, and would be happy to discuss their work further with anyone who is looking for a custom home builder or looking to embark on a large remodel project.

"Dave is an excellent craftsman. He arrived on time with all the tools, tarps and materials needed for the job. He spent the day building the lattice from scratch using redwood and staining it white. The end product was exactly what we were hoping for. Dave worked in our carport and made a huge mess. He did such a great job cleaning up that we couldn't even tell that he had ever even been there. We would highly recommend Dave to anyone who needs a handyman...he is definitely the one we will always call."

"Charles, his project managers (Ron and Alex), and crew did an amazing job. Both bathrooms exceeded are expectations and job was performed in a timely manner with constant communication with all aspects of project. The only delays were due to us selecting material not in stock locally...not really a delay. Crew was courteous and kept things clean and tidy during the project. After the majority of the project was complete, a cleaning crew showed up to deep clean bathrooms and general cleaning of the remainder of our home (dust happens during remodel). Price wasn't the least or most expensive and worth the price. Would definitely hire again."

"Sarah was great at getting to know what styles I liked and understanding what I really wanted my place to look like. She came back with options to choose from and adjusted just a bit after giving me room to provide my feedback. The designs came out great and people are really impressed when they come to my home. They always ask who designed it, and now you know 🤣 I highly recommend Sarah if you want similar outcomes! I really enjoy coming home everyday now, and it’s very much thanks to Sarah’s interior designs! She also helped coordinate some of the purchasing, which was super helpful, and is generally well organized. She used to work for a firm that charges much more, so you’re getting all that experience without having to pay for quite so much overhead."

"Leslie did a great job with helping us complete room addition compliance with city of San Diego. She was able to advocate for us with deflecting conditions that were not applicable to our project. She exhibited professionalism throughout the project, helping us in our favor all the way through completion. Highly recommended. Very thorough and knowledgeable with city codes, and knowing who to outreach at the city. There are multiple staffers at the city DSD that did not appear to be on the same page with what needed to be done with our project and Leslie was very capable in facilitating their mutual understanding."

"Hilario was clear and explained the steps for the job and contract. Antonio coordinated team and told me who would be coming and when. Adrian did a good job in such a small area. He is an excellent tile cutter and painter. Very careful to protect existing tile. Jose was the very efficient electrician for rewiring and putting up vanity lights. Very easy to work with this great team."

Mid-century modern architecture was a popular home style throughout the U.S. from the 1950s to 1970s. Most homes feature a wide and symmetrical floor plan with low-sloped roofs and floor-to-ceiling windows.
