"I needed last minute urgent help on a project. Al came out right away and did exceptional and efficient work to get it done. Not only is he excellent at his craft, he was also very pleasant and helpful on this project. Highly recommend and I will hire him again."
"I was skeptical of remodeling our kitchen because you hear so many horror stories about contractors taking too long, charging more than they say, flaking out, etc. My husband and I were in disbelief at how OPPOSITE Pristine is from that. Pristine Construction is exceptional. I don't think I have ever encountered a better company.... and I have very high standards! Nathan and Mike are not only true to their word, totally professional, and incredibly knowledgable, but they are 2 great guys who are fun to hang out with! They make you feel like you are their only client. Pristine Construction really does care about you as a person and they take a great deal of pride in providing the best service and best quality work. Also, the designer they had design our new kitchen was incredible. The layout of our finished kitchen is gorgeous. We are extremely happy with everything Pristine and their sub-contractors did. Our kitchen remodel was worth every penny. Their price was reasonable and similar to other construction companies around. Nathan and Mike and their crew helped us better our lives and we are eternally grateful. You will not find anyone better in Los Angeles!"
"Nathan impressed from the time I first met him. He was far more professional than other contractors in terms of describing how his company works and what I should expect if I worked with him. He also has a nice showroom where you can look a variety of cabinets in different styles and colors as well as countertops. We ended up getting a countertop that he suggested. We would never had picked it on our own but it ended up looking amazing in our kitchen. We had him do a complete remodel of our kitchen and one of our bathrooms. The guys on his crew were always prompt and showed up as scheduled. His foreman was both a good communicator and listener. Whenever we ran into an unexpected issue, they communicated clearly what additional costs would be involved (if any) and how much additional time it might take. The cabinets he installed were custom made but did not cost more than the pre-fab ones you can buy at the large home improvement stores. They are of high quality and well constructed. I actually saw his cabinet guy using a small caliper to make sure the door distances from the cabinets were all even! Lastly...here's something you'll never hear about a contractor...he finished AHEAD of time! Nathan's company are straight shooters and very skilled craftsmen. I would work with them again."
"The Pinnacle Team was great to work with. They did our ADU and came in on time and on budget - the 2 most important things. The team is well staffed, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. I know how to do electrical work, and they let me do this, which more contractors would never let you do some of your own work. I certainly would recommend them."
"I would suggest Bob and Nicole. We hired Platinum Home Builders to complete a difficult project that included moving and relocating a 100-year-old Douglas home, pouring a new foundation, and installing a new floor plan and a completely developed basement. I would go into more detail, but I believe the most important thing we learned was how much we trusted Platinum Home Builders to do the correct thing and make the right judgments."
"I give this company 5 out of 5 Stars on my recent Kitchen Reconstruction Project. I had significant water damage in my kitchen from a burst pipe under my sink and needed to renovate my entire kitchen because of it. I got several bids to do the work and many of the contractor were all over the map with respect to their pricing nor did they provide detailed estimates for me to really examine the costs. When Universal Home Design came to do their bid, they were upfront on what needed to be done and provided a detailed bid along with samples and an estimate as to how long the work would take. Ouriel Lousky was very easy to work with and was very thorough in answering all our questions. Even questions sent via email/text were answered promptly. He provided a lot of pictures as well of projects he was either working on or had finished. The quality of the work through those pictures in addition to his upfront attitude sold us and we hired them to do the work. It took under 2-weeks to complete out kitchen from beginning to end. The crew always arrived between 8-9 am and were very courteous. I’ll also mentioned that they were also very quiet while doing their work which allowed me to work upstairs and my kids to attended class from home (due to COVID-19) without any significant interruptions from noise. In addition, each day the crew would announce when they were leaving for the day. We were extremely happy with the quality of the work that was done upon completion. I can’t recommend this company enough! I should mention that there were no change orders required as part of my project and if Ouriel was able to get me a better deal on an item (cabinet knobs for example) he would offer it. If you are thinking of having some work done to your house, give these guys a chance. Let them do a bid for you and look through the examples of the work that they have done. You can’t go wrong!!

"I used Jeremiah and his crew for a new bedroom, bathroom, and mudroom addition to the back of our house. Our project had a unique challenge that arose once we learned that our house was deemed a historical property by the city. He was flexible in scheduling as we waited on the city to approve our plans. Everything moved very quickly as his team built the addition. The entire building crew and subcontractors Jeremiah used were professional and polite and worked with us. Overall, I would use Bridgestone Construction again and recommend them to anyone looking for a general contractor."
"Mike was our representative. Mike was our representative and everything he said there was to be done. They did absolutely wonderful and Mike was a really really good guy and thank you for that. I am very pleased and what they did and all the cleanup was done absolutely great thank you so much for the workmanship and all the people that you have working for you what they did for me was very professional very nice thank you again."
