LUX was excellent to work with and all the workers on site were professional and extremely good at their jobs. The contractor visited the site daily. I highly recommend LUX Builders & Remodeling for any size job you may have. They are honest and trustworthy. Their focus is satisfying the customer and delivering "an amazing house".
We were especially happy with the craftsman working on the job. The tiler who laid the floor and backsplash did an exceptional job as well as the electrician and painter. All of Sagi's staff worked really hard and were very pleasant to deal with.
From our first meeting through to the final door being hung, the process of remodeling our 2 bathrooms was flawless.
The process was smooth and?yes?it was fun! After visiting our home, taking measurements and discussing what we were looking for with my husband, Sagi came back a few weeks later as promised with drawings, estimates in writing and contracts. My husband had met with 4 other contractors and from that first meeting he knew Sagi would be our guy.
The day Sagi met us at our home with the above mentioned drawings, I confessed(?) to him that I was a art/creative director working in the agency world and that I am very particular and all about the details. This bit of info never phased him, it was not a problem.
We were thrilled with all he had to say, the drawings, the estimate and his enthusiasm for the work he does. We were off and running?and the good news?the first stop was shopping! Toilets and sinks and faucets and a tub! Then tile, beautiful tile and he knew the exact place to take me where I could feel comfortable being my crazy design self! It was an exhilarating
experience and Sagi was with us every step of the way.
Next came the demolition of our leaky upstairs bathroom. We knew we had leaking water issues and sure enough there were plenty. No problem, everything was fixed properly. Our first inspection with the city was flawless. Over his shoulder on his way out our front door, the inspector said, ?those guys from Lux, they always do everything better than they need to.?
Each day I went off to work?other than the progress in the bathrooms?you would never have known they were here. My house was spotless. Every single one of Sagi?s craftsman are talented, true artists [and yes other than solid surface and shower doors everyone of Sagi?s craftsman are his employees]. The carpenter framer, the electrician, the plumber, the dry wall installer, the painter and the tile master [I give him that name because he is a master of his craft]. And did I mention, they all clean up at the end of every day!?!
And as soon as bathroom one was finished enough for use,bathroom 2 was gone! And with the same talent and expertise [and far less issues than in the previously evil bathroom 1] our downstairs bathroom was done! Including a re-purposing of a hallway linen closet as a new bathroom linen closet, and a tear out and complete replacement of a water damaged bedroom closet [thanks again bathroom number 1 and it?s issues]. Plus, all new interior doors throughout our home!
While we are thrilled with the new bathrooms?best holiday gift to ourselves EVER?we were sad to see all our new friends leave for the final time. Crazy I know, but what a great bunch of craftsman we had the opportunity to have creating magic in our home! Now I?m figuring out what else we can remodel so we can work with Sagi Paul, and all our new friends at Lux again!
The job started on time and only ended late because of a bathtub manufacturer who messed up. Everything that Paul had control over was done right and on time.
The quality of the work was excellent. As I said before, Paul hires terrific workmen : the tile layers, the painters, the plumbers , etc. were all top-notch and had worked with Paul for years.
All the little finishing details at the end were handled promptly and final payment was not requested until every bit of the work was done. Paul in general always waited until a good chunk of work was done before asking for an installment.
I found Paul because my friend had used him. I would absolutely recommend him to someone else.
Let?s start with the bid. Lux was one of 3 contractors whom provided a written estimate. They were not the cheapest but after meeting and interviewing all 3 we decided that Lux, i.e. Paul Sagi, was our choice.
Next step, initial plans; while we had a pretty good idea of what we wanted the Lux bid included architectural analysis and planning along with a kitchen designer, Isaac. Lux was very responsive in the written estimate process but there was a 6 month lag between initial contact and actual construction start. For the record the delay was based on vacations, extra bids and missed connections on both sides.
I freely admit I am brand new to construction. I did a lot of research to bridge my knowledge gap but still managed to make many mistakes. The written contract completed, construction began, life changed. For note, as this was an addition, our family continued to live in the remaining half of the home sans kitchen. This is extraordinarily important as one lives first person construction reporter/reviewer every day.
Bottom line: The Lux work crews from demolition, excavation, foundation, framing, ?trades? (plumbing, electrical, heating, etc.) and onward were professional and competent. While Lux and I had many agreements to ?disagree? and a couple untimely surprises
related to decisions we did ultimately survive the construction project.
1. Would I use or recommend Lux Builders?
2. Did they complete the project timely? a. On budget? b. Quality?
1. A resounding ?Yes?. At the end of the day QUALITY construction is the goal.
2. No, the written contract differed from the verbal. As a newbie to the process I trusted that a verbal contract held authority- I have learned that many variables impact the written final product. While I do not believe that Lux deliberately mislead us I have since learned that a quality contractor with a dedicated crew, not subs, will be spread very thin with competing projects and
it is up to the Home Owner or ?Dedicated? site supervisor to ensure work is completed timely and ACCURATELY.
3. Hands down Lux will deliver you the quality you seek ? at a cost. They are not the most budget friendly but I do believe they will work with you to find a resolution that meets their and your needs.
We have many more construction needs in my home. The Lux team will be my 1st choice with learned caveats.
"Dear [member name removed], I realize it has been awhile since completion of the project (August 2011) and I am wondering if you have the correct contact information of the company. We have had the same contact info (email, cell & office phone) for over 10 years as well as the actual physical office, where all calls are answered during our business hours. We have had no recent communication from you through any of these sources. As you mentioned in your post, the cabinet company did come out and restain the kitchen. Also on the dark stain wood, there is a specific non-aggressive maintenance plan which was explained to all the members residing in the household. If there are any further issues we would be glad to schedule a day to come out and inspect. Please contact us at (888) 335-0777 or [email protected]"
