"A few years ago we did a simple remodel of two bathrooms in Menlo Park with FVR. By the time we finished the project we just wanted these folks out of the house. After a few years I felt it was necessary to share our negative experience and how poorly much of the work has held up. Specific issues; 1. Substandard workmanship: a. Heating vent under the house was left unconnected--I was heating our crawlspace and not the bathroom for 6 months. This went undetected until I went under the house for something else! b. Looking in my attic, the electrical work to hookup the bathroom fan is clearly not up to code--junction box is not closed and there are multiple exposed wire splices. c. Gang box for the newly installed light switch is clearly not level and out of square. 2. Numerous examples with low quality finish carpentry: a. Gouge on a newly installed sliding door from the aluminum frame--supposedly fixed then recurred. b. Spackle and paste used to patch the casing around the door frame where it contacts the bathroom tile--looks terrible c. A supposedly 'straight' wall that was rebuilt by FVR, clearly bulges with an obvious curve in the baseboard. d. Sloppy work on the plumbing cover plates for one toilet--half smeared with paint and not attached to the wall properly. 3. Low quality of painting: a. Two slightly different colors of white used in one bathroom with sloppy caulking around the trim. b. Numerous blotches of paint on hardwood floors around the hallway baseboard--the kind that would be easily have been avoided by using masking tape. 4. Sloppy personnel and poor cleanliness: a. Folks were working while we were on vacation, and we came home late in the evening to find construction debris scattered in our front yard including razor blades, paint on our front walk (where stains can still be seen). b. For a year afterwards we found trash (food wrappers & empty bottles) behind the bushes or buried in the shrubs. c. I saw workers 'free handing' a circular saw for trim and baseboard--where one guy would hold the boards and another would use the circular saw. For sure not a safe or effective option--just glad nobody was hurt at our house by these substandard practices. Nobody could be bothered to bring a jobsite saw. I will add that we pointed out most of these issues to the company reps while they were happening-- most responses 'Just an honest mistake' and/or 'We will send somebody over to fix that'. At a certain point you stop trusting anyone from the company and just want these 'less-than-competent' folks out of the house. The customer shouldn't have to check all these details--especially about heating/plumbing/electrical work. Would not ever trust this company again to touch our house."

"From start to finish, W and W Builders Group was an exceptional partner in our kitchen remodel. We were initially apprehensive, but Magen, our project manager, quickly put us at ease. Her communication was outstanding keeping us informed every step of the way and addressing any concerns with clarity and care. She managed the schedule flawlessly and coordinated all trades with impressive precision. What truly set Magen apart was her genuine investment in our vision. She listened closely, offered thoughtful suggestions, and was always responsive, organized, and patient. The workmanship from the W and W team exceeded our expectations. The attention to detail, especially on our stunning new kitchen island and quartz countertops, was top-notch. Equally important, their pricing was transparent and competitive! with no hidden costs or surprises. We’re incredibly grateful to Magen and the entire W and W Builders Group team.

Founded by a hardworking Mexican father, our company is built on the values of hard work, integrity, and a commitment to delivering exceptional construction services to families and businesses. Fine Home Construction was established to provide honest, high-quality construction services. Over the years, we have achieved significant milestones, including: Building a loyal client base who trust us for their construction needs. Successfully completing numerous high-profile residential and commercial projects. Expanding our team with skilled and dedicated workers
"We recently completed a second-story addition with Fine Home Construction, and the experience exceeded all our expectations. With a growing family, we needed more space, but moving wasnâ t an option. From start to finish, Fine Home Construction delivered exceptional service, professionalism, and craftsmanship, transforming our home in ways we could only dream of. Clear Communication and Vision: From the very first consultation, we knew Fine Home Construction was the right choice. They listened carefully to our needs and offered thoughtful design solutions we hadnâ t even consideredâ like larger windows and a skylight to bring in natural light. Throughout the process, they maintained excellent communication, keeping us informed every step of the way. They were upfront about costs, with no surprises, and gave us options that worked within our budget. Construction Phase â Smooth and Stress-Free: Living in the home during construction was something we were initially worried about, but the team made it easy. They were punctual, respectful, and cleaned up at the end of every day. The project manager, [Project Managerâ s Name], was always available for questions and made sure everything stayed on track. The quality of the work speaks for itselfâ every part of the addition was done to the highest standards, and inspections passed without a hitch. Attention to Detail and Flexibility: What really stood out was their attention to detail. Fine Home Construction didnâ t just add a second story; they made it feel like a natural extension of our home. The exterior blends perfectly with the original structure, and inside, everything from the custom cabinetry to the built-in shelving was done with care. When we requested changes mid-project, like adding a balcony off the master bedroom, they accommodated without missing a beat. The Finished Product: Our home feels completely transformed. The new master suite is a beautiful, serene space, and the extra bedrooms are perfect for our kids. The upstairs family room, with its large windows, has become the heart of our home. Fine Home Construction also made sure the addition was energy-efficient, and weâ ve already noticed a difference in comfort. Conclusion: Working with Fine Home Construction was a fantastic experience from beginning to end. They made a potentially stressful project feel manageable and turned our house into the dream home we always wanted. If youâ re considering a renovation or home addition, I wholeheartedly recommend Fine Home Construction. Their quality of work and commitment to customer satisfaction are unmatched."

"Tal was highly recommended by a friend of mine. He came to our house with a portfolio of all the beautiful remodeling jobs he had done. He sent a detailed proposal only a few days later. We had the first floor of our home remodeled which included: kitchen, living room, dining room, family room, and powder room. We had the fireplace totally redone with an electric insert installed. We had luxury vinyl flooring installed ,the popcorn ceiling removed ,recessed lighting, and walls painted. It all looks amazing I feel like I have a new house. Tal was wonderful. He helped us pick out the flooring and the quartz countertops to complement the white shaker cabinets I chose. Everyone that was involved in the remodeling were fantastic. The workers were all very professional and were there every day, except weekends) Tal came every day to check on the progress. He let me know what was going to be done that day and who was coming to do it. Tal always answered my text messages immediately when I had questions too. It took a total of about 7 weeks.

The cost of home remodeling is $50,000 for the average homeowner. However, this cost can range anywhere from $3,000 for a small project to $170,000 for a whole home remodel. Factors like project size, location, and room type all affect your overall cost. For example, bedroom remodeling costs are one of the least expensive projects, costing about $1,500 to $5,500 per bedroom. However, a kitchen remodel has a significant cost range, totaling anywhere from $14,500 to over $70,000.
Yes, most states require home remodeling contractors to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed home remodeling contractor could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
The best time of year to remodel your home is late winter and early spring when fewer homeowners are thinking about projects and pros are more available. Also consider the type of remodel you want and plan ahead as much as possible. For example, the summer is a great time of year to update your fireplace, but winter is a better option for fixing foundations and building room additions.
There are a few things you can do to prepare for a home remodeling project to ensure a smooth construction process. Creating a detailed budget can help you stay on track, especially with the excitement of new construction or upgrades. It’s also beneficial to map out a remodeling timeline with your contractor to have clear expectations. In addition, you’ll want to prepare the space that will be worked on ahead of time—this could be tarping furniture or entirely removing belongings from the room.
Home renovation insurance, sometimes called “dwelling under renovation coverage” or “builder’s risk insurance,” helps financially cover any damages that occur during the home renovation process. While different from typical homeowners insurance, many homeowners insurance policies already include some sort of home renovation insurance or offer it as an additional add-on. While this insurance isn’t necessary for every home remodeling project, it’s best to contact your insurance company to verify if it’s needed and what your coverage options are.
