It went perfectly and exceeded my expectations. Initially, I faced considerable trepidation while getting qoutes from contractors who would be taxed with removing old asphalts from a jointly shared driveway, and replacing it with a new large concrete entrance way. All the trepidation immediately was quelled after talking to and working with Paul and Ismael of Smart eye construction company. The newly completed concrete driveway, exceeded all my expectations. The project exemplified first rate craftsmanship and professionalism at every step. Furthermore, Paul and Ismael provided clear and ongoing communication each and every day. I asked plenty of questions, and when I voiced any concerns, I was provided with quick assurances and answers. In short, the entire crew took great pride in the work, which by the way was completed in a timely fashion and at a fair price. Parenthetically, when I first started looking for contractors on Angie's List, the smart eye contraction company has the greatest number of positive reviews, they've been in business for decades. If you're thinking about installing a new driveway, this company is your best bet. It earned my highest recommendation. -Joe Dojcsak

Dear Smart Eye Construction Team, I wanted to take a moment to express my utmost satisfaction with the exceptional service provided by your team, especially Paul and Ismael. As residents of a condominium in Huntington Park facing a mandated renovation after 30 years, we were in dire need of professional assistance to avoid condemnation. From the initial consultation to the completion of the project, Smart Eye Construction has consistently exceeded our expectations. Paul and Ismael meticulously inspected our entire building, including the underground parking, and proposed a comprehensive plan that not only met but exceeded our renovation requirements. Despite challenges in gathering funds from all 60 unit owners for the necessary $6,000 special assessment, your team displayed extraordinary patience and flexibility. You adjusted the pace of the remodeling process to accommodate our financial constraints, demonstrating a deep commitment to customer satisfaction. What truly sets Smart Eye Construction apart is your proactive approach to addressing issues that weren’t initially part of our scope. Ismael and his team went above and beyond by tackling additional necessary repairs with dedication and professionalism. Their philosophy of fixing what needs to be fixed without compromise reflects their genuine care for the wellbeing of our complex and its residents. Overall, I can confidently give Smart Eye Construction a five-star rating. Ismael and his team have shown remarkable dedication, hard work, and courtesy throughout the entire remodeling process. If anyone is looking for a trustworthy partner for their remodeling needs, Smart Eye Construction is undoubtedly the right choice. Thank you once again for transforming our condominium complex and ensuring its safety and beauty for years to come. Warm regards, Frank Chavez

We connected with Paul at Smart Eye Construction to come out and bid on a drainage system and deck install at the front of our new purchase of an old home. WOW was I happy that we signed contract with them. Ishmael Sr. and Ishmael Jr. are generational craftsmen. Their price was competitive and within our budget. The execution of the project and the skill of the laborers was unmatched. We are SO happy with the end result and so grateful that we found this company to work with. They are honest, communicative, and worked with a few modifications we asked for through the week of work. Our porch wasn’t easy to work on as the old home doesn’t have any right angles. They even helped reinforce our garden wall and stucco it.. They designed a really wonderful deck that give our space so much curb appeal. (We are painting the custom railing ourselves). We are already excited to hire them for our next deck project!

Smart Eye Construction was the VERY BEST! From talking to Paul (my contact person) to set up my estimate, to being available for any questions or concerns I had. When Ishmael came to go under our house to check for damage and all of the workers they were polite and always on time. Our bathroom looks AMAZING! Ismael Jr. was the kindest and most hard working young man, which is rare in today’s world. They cleaned up after themselves at the end of working every single day. I would recommend “Smart Eye Construction” for any and ALL of your home projects! Our bathroom looks straight out of a magazine!

It went fine. It was right on scheduled and the price was good. They showed up on time and I would say it was a pretty successful project. The only issues that I would say is that the finish was a little bit lacking like for the drywall and painting but that's untestable since they are not specialist.

Smart Eye Construction was everything I could ask for in a contractor. I have worked with several in the past without glowing success so I was skeptical. They really came through for us. They beat the competitors quotes substantially and came in below budget. I would Highly recommend giving them a call.
