"We just finished our guest bathroom remodel with Vision Home Remodeling, and the transformation is unbelievable! Our old bathroom was outdated and cramped, but now it looks modern, bright, and so much more functional. From the very first consultation, they stood out because of their professionalism and excellent communication. They worked with us on the design, making great recommendations that fit both our style and budget. Their pricing was competitive, and there were no surprise costs—everything was transparent from day one. The crew was fantastic—polite, on time, and very clean. They worked efficiently but never rushed, making sure everything was done with precision and high-quality craftsmanship. The tile work, in particular, is stunning—the attention to detail is second to none. What really set them apart was how stress-free the process was. We’ve done home renovations before, and they’ve always been a hassle. But Vision Home Remodeling made everything easy and seamless. I’m beyond happy with the results, and I’d absolutely recommend them to anyone considering a bathroom remodel."

With over a decade of vast project experience all over Los Angeles and Ventura county, we can help you with your remodeling and build your next dream home! We are general contractors, but we also provide the following services: roofing, room additions, kitchen remodeling, bathroom remodeling, windows and doors and so much more.

"Buyer beware!!! I have never had such a nightmare with this company. Save your money and your sanity. They installed a patio cover for me. It leaked immediately. This was two years ago. For the past two years, they have been out at least 7 or 8 times claiming to "fix" the leaks. The leaks were not normal patio leaks by the way. The leaking has cause 3 of the 4 lights installed in the patio to fail. Every time they come, it's never fixed. The leaks keep getting worse. They never follow up with me, I always have to call them. They do not manage their sub contractors at all. This latest round started just before Christmas 2021, it's now been three months, four visits later. They took flashing off, said they were going to let it dry out and put it back. I didn't hear from them for two weeks, I noticed rain on the weather , I called Trig who had to send them back out to put the flashing back on. They sent some guy to do some more drastic sealing or something on my roof, they claimed it was done.....see attached photos of how they left my roof claiming it was done. Also, never followed back up with me on a light they need to replace which is still burned out and filled with water from rains. Save yourself the headache please!!! This still isn't resolved. I have filed a BBB compliant to try and help me resolve."

"We used Ivy Builders to remodel a 30 year-old bathroom in our 60 year-old house. Nathan and crew were outstanding. The job was on schedule and on budget. Every hiccup, bump and oversight were handled without drama. Nathan knows his business and as he told me one day, "You just plan for there to be problems and you handle it, happens on every project." We could not be happier with the job, would highly recommend!"

Countertops and Backsplashes questions, answered by experts

When properly cared for, Corian® countertops last 20 to 30 years. Maintenance tasks to increase longevity include fixing damage as soon as possible, cleaning up spills immediately, and promptly taking care of small or cosmetic damage. You can buff out scratches with sandpaper and remove water stains with a water stain remover.

There are several significant differences between laminate and quartz countertops. Quartz is much pricier than laminate but can last for decades, while laminate lasts around 15 years. Laminate can’t be repaired or resealed and is easier to damage than quartz, which can be repaired. Both quartz and laminate are prone to heat damage. Usually, the choice comes down to your budget.

Yes, you can replace or repair an undermount sink without removing and reinstalling the countertop. Start by shutting off the water to your home, then disconnect the drain. You’ll need a good understanding of kitchen plumbing (and the necessary tools) to remove the pipes. You’ll also have to cut through the silicone seal, then carefully lower the sink down from below.

If you’re not sure how to go about undermount sink repair, call in a countertop specialist or a plumber to handle the task.

Here are some things to avoid to help protect, maintain, and care for laminate countertops. Do not put hot pans or appliances directly onto the countertops because they can scorch the surface. Always use trivets and hot pads. Avoid using harsh, abrasive cleaning products and steel wool. Opt for hot, soapy water and a soft microfiber cloth instead.

Corian tends to be slightly cheaper than granite when used in fixtures like kitchen countertops. However, the price difference is fairly negligible and largely depends on the type of granite you choose. Corian can be a budget-friendly and durable choice, plus it doesn’t require as much regular maintenance, which keeps long-term costs down.
