"My doors did not have a molding piece that held the glass in, it was a solid door surrounding the glass..so they had to cut into the door, to replace the glass.  They had to improvise on the molding pieces which took an extra two days to complete.  After it was completed I was happy to see that the door looks great and I can see out of my new glass...no more hazy views out my windows!!  Alex and  his crew were very knowledgeable, and courteous.  They reassured me that the outcome of my door would be great, even though I had some doubts during the job....I found Alex to be honest, empathetic and eager to do the job right the first time and to make his customers happy.  Thank you!

"The job was during the first half of March 2019 for a 35 year old, 28 two- and three-story townhouse unit complex in Pasadena, California/trendy Playhouse District. As the current and prior/numerous years condo association president, I have had many experiences with contractors, including roofing, painting, plumbing, landscaping, and Chris Coyle is by far the most competent, reasonable, reliable, cooperative, fair and most professional of all the contractors. I would most highly recommend his services. During the plus two-week installation, Chris as company boss was "on top of job" because actually he himself and his assistant were installing/"doing the heavy lifting" for all of the new windows. This clearly illustrates his commitment/pride in his craftsmanship. Also, he is very knowledgeable about the window product/Milgard because he thought it best for this job to actually remove most of the old window frames, not customary for a/this "retrofit" versus "replacement" window installation. He was willing to do the extra work at no additional cost in order that the new window frames were not wide/distracting but thinner/minimal/open/clean/more open/glass configuration to enhance the overall modernization of the complex. I "gambled" with this new look for improving the complex, and Chris made not only the complex look good but me as president as well. Every- one is thrilled by the windows results, even asking "why didn't 'we' do this earlier?' I and the other homeowners do not hesitate at all in recommending Christopher Coyle and his Alta Sierra Windows company to any other homeowner. Richard, president, Oak Knoll Village homeowner association. (Thanks Chris!)"

We are happy with the whole process of initiating the project, arranging the service and the service itself. Very fast response from the office clerk and the owner. The two year warranty provided by the company gave us a piece of mind. The job was done in less than the week. If the nice painting sustains over the years to come as promised by the owner, we could certainly hire them back for other painting and roof needs.

This was a standard kitchen remodel.

Demo of existing kitchen, wall and ceiling repair, new cabinets, plumbing, electrical, blew out and added on to our breakfast nook, new flooring. Lighting overhead and under cabinet. 

Demo went smooth, house protected from dust.  Construction crews were careful and courteous. We had a few small issues along the way but had Precise crews in immediately to take care of this. 

We searched very hard to find the best service for the best price, Precise did not disappoint us.

Kitchen is complete, we are now pondering the other home improvement projects they can help us with!

"The owner Jim came to provide us a free estimate and was there within the scheduled time frame provided.  He measured and got back to us with a price.  All the windows and doors are custom ordered to your specification, so don't expect to get an estimate over the phone... let someone come out - it's worth it!  When I called they were able to fit me in the next day which was really nice!  Once we agreed on the scope of services - we had to prioritize and do our order in pieces due to our budget - and Jim and his team were patient with us as we did one job at a time.  Each time we gave a deposit and Jim orders what we commit to - remember these are custom made to order, so we were OK with that.  As soon as the sliding doors were in, his office called to schedule the installation.  Same with the frameless shower door in the master bathroom and the new windows all around the house.  The work was done efficiently and his crew did a great job on cleaning up. His guys work super hard - there's no wondering, what are they doing now moments.  Our windows and doors made a huge mess because we had all the old wood framing pulled off at the same time.  And since we have dogs, we were very particular about the yard clean-up and Jim was very thorough and did not disappoint.  Compared to others, Jim's estimate was very competitive and we felt comfortable with the fact he has been licensed in the desert for so long - he knows his stuff.  The company seems to keep their overhead low and they do not have a storefront, so if you like to touch and feel things before purchasing like I do, ask them for referrals and/or pictures of local jobs.   I'm surprised there are not any reviews here yet as I found they have done so many jobs and have many happy customers willing to have you see his work.  I think probably like myself, many people in the desert don't use Angie's List because many of the contractors here are from out of the area even though they come up as local.  So Cal Sliding Door is truly local with an office in Palm Desert.  We highly recommend So Cal Sliding Door for any of your door & window needs."

"Chris contacted me after my review was posted and asked what he could do "to make things better."  He did everything I asked him to do and more - including completely replacing the tile floor when all that was really necessary was fixing a few tiles. He did the work himself and does indeed do the beautiful work mentioned in other reviews. I'm saw much improvement in timeliness, punctuality, and professionalism - he seems to have been going through a bad patch and is really working to turn things around. This time I would consider working with him again.


9 weeks for a very straightforward bathroom redo - no construction; just swapping out fixtures and adding tile - need I say more? The job still isn't really finished; I just reached the point where I had enough. To be fair, maybe a week of that time is down to the fact that there was no water shutoff in the condo for the bathtub and the HOA isn't especially accommodating about such issues. But on the whole, they were out maybe once or twice a week - if at all. The work itself was mediocre - and sometimes it had to be redone to get it to that standard. The floor tiles aren't well aligned and more than one is cracked; the grout wasn't sealed; the vanity top was initially installed at an angle from the wall (at one point 3/4" away from it) and without the stopper to operate the drain. I began to get the impression that he was just dropping off not-very-competent workers and leaving them to work unsupervised. That was particularly a problem because I couldn't be at home myself - Chris has a key but he didn't seem to be very careful about who he let in to work without supervision or who he gave it to, and he still hasn't returned it.
Chris was more than willing to pick up items I couldn't manage - like the tub - but actually getting it done took repeated phone calls and didn't happen until the vendors started threatening to cancel the order or charge storage. He was also happy to accommodate some of my more finicky requirements - except they didn't get done. I had some issues about charges and payments and had asked for a detailed breakdown - the last message I received from him was he was going to have Liz send it that day; then he would call me to discuss it, and come out to fix the leak in the shower head he had installed (this would be the second attempt to fix the leak) - none of that happened.
There are two or three other jobs that I need to hire someone to do - it definitely won't be Most Wanted Construction.

"Having done numerous home projects over the past 20 years with and without contractors, I knew a complete bathroom remodel would take a lot of coordination between subs, so my wife and I decided to hire a contractor for this project.  We hired an architect several years prior to draw up plans for our remodel and we had done plenty of research on which items we would purchase. We weren’t doing anything extraordinary, just replace tub, vanity, tiles, repaint and remove shower to make room for a stacked washer & ventless dryer.  I had been on my building’s board of directors for the past 6 years, so I knew exactly what needed to be done to ensure condo and code compliance. Unfortunately, it didn’t go as smoothly as it could have.
In case you don’t want to read all the details:In summary, Rani, the owner, is a nice guy who communicates well.  Unfortunately, the people he subcontracts work to aren’t necessarily highly skilled. For our remodel, the electrician did very good work, the plumber did average work, the tile person did good work on the floor, but horrible work on the wall, and the supervisor was below average. The main overall problem was the workers’ lack of detail. While I would not use Inception again, I think they’d do an acceptable job for most people on simple projects or for “fix & flip” people who plan on selling their home right away.
The details:From the very beginning, instructions were missed. We requested several times to create a plastic barrier to block off the living room to limit the amount of dust that would go on my desk/computer area, TV, couch, etc. They said no problem, but it never happened. Also, our HOA requires that no supplies be left in the hallway after 6pm during the week or over the weekend, but 2x4s, metal pieces and runners were left out there multiple times.
The main problems started after demolition. The tile guy did a very good job on the floor with the Italian tiles, but did a horrible job with the white subway wall tiles. One evening, I came home to find that he used the wrong color grout – I had specified the exact color to be used and wrote it down in several places, but he ended up using a much darker color because it was in stock at Home Depot. So, I was happy when he redid it with the correct color, but then horrified when I realized that he grouted all the corners – expansion joints should be caulked, otherwise the grout will crack right away. And that’s exactly what happened after 1 day!  The tile guy came back to fix, but instead of cutting out the grout and applying caulk, he just caulked over the grout…with the wrong color!  At this point, I was done with the guy and just did it myself, spending 2 nights after work using a grout saw to cut out the grout and applying the correct color caulk.
After all the wall tile work was done, the supervisor hung the shower curtain rod and in the process stripped several screws and cracked a tile where the rod was mounted. Then the worst part appeared after a couple days – he obviously put too much pressure on the tile with his hand to cause it to crack, but that pressure was also on the metal corner bead, which caused movement that cracked 12 bullnose tiles.  This ended up being another multi-night project for me, since I no longer trusted the tile guy nor the supervisor to fix things correctly. 
Mounting a 40x30 medicine cabinet should be pretty easy, right? Well, first they chipped the mirror in several places. So, we had to order a replacement unit from Kohler. Then, the guys mounted the medicine cabinet upside down. After being notified, they said they’d fix it the next day. Well, after coming home from work, I found that instead of correctly installing it, they just rotated an interior product sticker to make it look like it was right side up. This dishonestly was truly disappointing. Yet again, this was something that I needed to spend time fixing. And upon removing the cabinet, I realized that none of the 5 screws they used to attach the top of the cabinet to the wall went into a stud. Really? It took me a few minutes to find the studs, but at least I know it’s secure.
From the very beginning, one of my requirements because of HOA rules was to have a drip pan installed under the washer. This was never done, so I had to order one and then hook up the washer and dryer myself. But during the installation, I realized that the water drain pipe was mounted too high – while the washer & dryer had been sitting around the entire duration of the remodel project and the installation manuals were provided to the supervisor, the workers just mounted the water lines like they’d do for a full size washer. Our Bosch units are compact and have certain requirements, so I had to come up with a workaround. 
The project seemed to be finished until I tried taking a shower.  First, the tub diverter handle was so loose, it felt like it was going to break off. Then, the shower spout was loose.  The Speakman tub diverter handle was an easy fix – I just removed the handle and tightened a few bolts. But I wasn’t happy when I removed the shower spout collar – the shower spout elbow wasn’t anchored to the stud. It was just next to the stud and it could easily move an inch laterally. After a few years of movement and stress, I envisioned the copper pipe cracking at some connection, so I immediately mounted the pipe correctly. 
This project was filled with many mistakes that could’ve been avoided. While subcontractors are bound to slip up occasionally, a good supervisor will notice this and have the mistake corrected before the client notices. My advice to Rani is to find a core group of supervisors that are capable and trustworthy before trying to grow Inception further."
