We hired them to do shower about a year and half ago and were pleased with their work. So when I wanted to replace tile floors in same bathroom I called them. The job they did was awful. Did not prepare floor properly after removal of old tile and ended up with a wavy mosaic floor!

We are absolutely impressed with the exceptional quality, craftsmanship, and professionalism provided by Gold Standard Builders, Inc. They handled a complete renovation of our master bathroom, demolishing everything right down to the studs. They enlarged the shower area, removed the bathtub, and installed brand new cabinets. The project supervisor has been a delight to work with throughout the entire process. We have no doubt that the final result will be nothing short of stunning. We highly recommend Gold Standard Builders to anyone who is considering remodeling their home. Thank you for an outstanding job.

We were very pleased with the overall process and the journey with Adam, the Owner, and with Carlos and team. Adam communicated the daily process and is fair, reasonable and thoughtful. He regularly visited the site and was vested in the project. Carlos and team were very knowledgeable, pleasant to work with and worked hard and quickly... And they cleaned up at the end of each day. Adam has very good resources for materials and design advice, for cabinetry and for kitchen and bath construction. They went above and beyond trying to install a kitchen faucet that we ordered and it turned out to be faulty to no fault of their own - but nevertheless worked to make it right. We are grateful for their work and the opportunity to work with them. We would highly recommend Gold Standard.

Carlos and crew did good work and solved a lot of issues related to an older home. Adam was on site regularly and was pleasant. Each follow-up was addressed and although a couple of minor things needed to be adjusted, they were addressed to our satisfaction. Adam and team worked well with our design and choices, and intervened with companies we purchased products from as necessary. Looking forward to our next project with them!

It was a fantastic experience with Adam, the owner of Gold Builders. I had my kitchen cabinets replaced and the backsplash done as well with some electrical work . He is very professional and so are his crew. The crew always came on time and finished the work and cleaned up. after and left the place clean . He finished the entire kitchen within the time frame promised in the contract . Adam was always on top of overlooking the job and was very communicative throughout the whole project . Will definitely hire them back if I have another project in the house. Definitely a 5 Star experience.

We would recommend Gold Standard Builders for a home improvement project hands down! Adam was thorough in his explanation of each stage when sitting down to give us a quote. When the project started, he was very communicative through email and text regarding what to expect each day. His crew was very respectful and professional. The work was done in the estimated time he gave us! Even when we had some slight concerns about the paint job in one of the bathrooms, he sent the crew out again and fix it. We were very happy with the bathroom remodel and have Adam to thank for that!! Can't thank him enough for the great quality work they did!!

"Norma, thank you so much for the very kind words. It was a pleasure working with both of you. All the best, Adam."

Did not listen to what I wanted and came out wrong.
Response from Gold Standard Builders, Inc.
"I don't know a Bjay J in Winnetka but I assume this is Bobbie Jones. First off, you have a lien filed against your property that was recorded in the County of Los Angeles as of 3/22/22 at 1:42PM due to non-payment of finished material I purchased on your behalf as a COURTESY to you. It was YOUR responsibility to supply the material. I did it as a service expecting to get paid! I have copies of the lien so all documents can be provided to whomever would like to see them. To say that your comments are irrelevant and ridiculous is an understatement. We did a bathroom remodel, relocated the laundry, replaced flooring, pantry, recessed lighting. And painted the hallway. We provided work above and beyond the scope we were committed to. Your hallway paint was falling apart due to poor workmanship so we primed and painted it at NO CHARGE. During work we asked you and your wife at every stage how you liked things, your comments etc. And there was never a negative comment. At the end we passed the final inspection and you paid the final payment. If we didn't listen to you during work, I don't think you would have just paid us. At the end I asked you to pay me the $585.54 for finished material that you were responsible for, according to the contract and you refused to pay. I am not sure why you would not pay such a small amount that you owed. I told you that I would have to file a lien and you didn't seem to care, so I did. You also told me about the other contractor that left your window job in the middle. You blamed him for something he did wrong...I wonder what his side of the story is... Writing this vague review will not remove the lien. This platform is supposed to help other customers learn about service providers rather than be used as a revenge or payback tool, especially that the work was top notch. Best, Adam"

Adam and his crew did a great job on my Kitchen, laundry room, and bathroom floor/sink remodel. This is a rental property so we also had to deal with tenants. Adam and his crew were very responsive, flexible, timely, and did a good job overall. There were a couple appliances installed incorrectly at first but the crew reinstalled them correctly. It all looks beautiful! I appreciate all the hard work!

This is the first time I've worked with Gold Standard Builders, but the first time they worked inside the house. It was a large project that took a few months, but the result was definitely worth it. The men who did the actual work were clean and polite, and did excellent work. I highly recommend this company!

Gold Standard Builders gave my family our forever dream home! Adam & Zack are true professionals from beginning to end. They transformed our home from a 3+1 of 1200 sq. ft. to a 4+3 of 2000 sq. ft. It was a complete remodel all the way down to the concrete slab, a new 800 sq. ft. addition and some updates to a detached garage. They completed everything within budget and schedule as promised and helped guide me through the process. They always answered any questions, kept me informed with status and very responsive to return my call/texts within hours. Adam even met me to help pick out kitchen cabinets and countertops. I can't thank them enough for making this process as easy as possible and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a professional general contractor that can do it all.
Response from Gold Standard Builders, Inc.
"Dear Jenny, Thank you so much for the kind words. You really helped us a lot to stay on schedule by always being available to make decision, choose finished materials and stay on top of things. It was truly a pleasure working with you, and we hope you enjoy the new house for many years to come. Thank you again, and all the best. Adam."

I met with 6 different contractors and before I had even received their quote I was impressed with and had a good feeling about Gold Standard Builders over all the others. And then I got their quote, and while price is not always everything, their price came in significantly lower than several of their competitors. But the lower price did not mean lower quality work. Adam is an excellent project manager and his team, led by Carlos was very professional with a great attention to detail. Had master bathroom retiled, new faucets, new vanity and replaced flooring and all done in less time than originally expected. Will definitely use them again!!

Bathroom Remodel
I used this contractor almost 3 years ago, he told me it was a family business and he had 15 or more years experience. His experience was as a sales person, not a contractor! My tub has a crack in it near the drain as it was not installed nor leveled correctly. I have his note pad where he Googled on how to install a tub. The molding around the tub pulls off the wall as it moves slightly when you get in and out. The shower knob will not stay on after he replaced it twice. The towel bar on the door fell off after the 2nd month. He replaced it once but it comes off all the time and I am sick of replacing. I now need a new door and new tub. I turn the shower fixture from bath mode to shower mode with pliers. The tile floor is not level and you can clearly see how tiles are up higher on one side or another. The tile is a beautiful light grey and the grout he used is now a very dirty dark brown. I travel a lot and it was suppose to be completed in 2-3 weeks. While I was in Australia, the neighbors called the police at 3:00am as the contractor and his girlfriend were staying in my condo. They told my neighbor to f.... off I have a video of how the contractors had tools and dust and trash everywhere. I organized the area so I could walk through. The job was not completed for 12-13 weeks, nightmare. I actually ended up hiring someone to come in and complete it. He uses the pics of my bathroom for his website! The pics don't show the lousy paint job nor does it show he used the old wood trim and used grout and paint to make it look like new behind the toilet.He did pay for the person I hired but I do not have the beautiful new bathroom I paid for. Why post after 3 years? I did not want to do it because I did not want to ruin his business but I need to replace the tub and it frustrates me every time I look at the crack in the tub.
Response from Gold Standard Builders, Inc.
"There are two sides to every story! First, I would like to say that I am the first one to say that the job was not properly done! For that, I am very sorry and I apologized countless times. I gave up a payment of $2,950 and was paid a total of $8,800 for the job. In an attempt to rectify the errors, I purchased all new tiles out of my pocket. I also purchased a second tub out of my pocket. All in all, I paid over $10,000 over and above the initial cost of the job, out of pocket, in order to make things right. TUB ISSUE: The 2nd tub was installed by one of my guys, Gabriel, who has been doing this for over 20 years and is an EXCELLENT tradesman. It was installed correctly at the beginning of April 2018. In Feb. 2019 you e-mailed me complaining about a tub issue. This was 10 months after we installed the 2nd tub and left the house. Frank, the contractor you hired and I paid for, did come twice to your house. *My tub has a crack in it near the drain*. Changing the drain was one of the things he was doing. I have his invoices from Aug. 2018! So, 10 months after we installed a second tub, and about 6 months after your contractor did additional work, including the tub drain, you complained to me. Your contractor should bear some responsibility for the work he performed. Regardless, I e-mailed you back in Feb 2019 and said that no matter who the fault it is, let us try to rectify this, and I will try to help as best I can. I never heard from you since. I never once tried to escape my responsibility. I stayed in touch and answered any and all texts, e-mails, and/or phone calls, day or night. He had 15 or more years of experience.* I have never said to anyone that I was in business for 15 or more years. Never! *I have his notepad where he searched on how to install a tub*. WHAT? Notepad with instructions on how to remodel a bathroom? First, I never carry such a notepad, and secondly, were you going through my personal stuff? *the contractor and his girlfriend were staying in my condo*. I never stayed in the condo. This is simply not true! Regarding your 2nd hire. You said that you had a recommended contractor that you wanted to hire. I agreed and reimbursed you twice for your expenses! I paid close to $2,000 for him coming twice to your place. Again, I am truly sorry for what happened. I think that anyone reading this and read the other 16 unsolicited reviews will conclude that this was a one-time case rather than a pattern. all our reviews are unsolicited. no *offers* or *benefits* of any kind were made to anyone writing a review. We are an honest company with the best intentions in mind! I wish you the best going forward."

Great guys. Zak is on it. Is a pleasure working with him on our backyard. They added a 20 foot by 40 foot patio cover, pavers, fire pit, lawn and sprinklers. After the work was completed when a problem with the add on came up I called Zak and he was on top of fixing the problems quickly. As we add more and more to the yard they ll always be our first call.

Gold Standard Builders actually did 5 things: sandblasted house, re-stuccoed, stripped chimney of peeling paint and restored the natural brick, replaced my driveway and replaced an old chain link fence with a pretty wooden one. This was all done in less than 2 weeks! They did a great job.

I enjoyed working with Gold Standard Builders and I really love the two bathrooms they did for us, but I have to share what I've shared with friends looking for a contractor. They do great work, but you have to be prepared to do all of the designing. (You're responsible for all fixtures and if you've never researched shower systems and permit restrictions, etc. then the process can get overwhelming quickly. We weren't aware we needed asbestos testing until a friend inquired and only then did they do it. I provided a spreadsheet of all products we were planning to buy with dimensions. I assumed the team was taking the details into consideration, but they didn't so they didn't measure out the medicine cabinet correctly and it led to extra projects correcting the paint. The vanity's size wasn't considered and they learned at the very end that it didn't fit which led to added weeks of trying to work around the mistake. (This is the only reason they received a 4 and not a 5. The team didn't share with us that they didn't close the wall behind our vanity. We randomly found it, but once we did and told Adam and the team they worked to correct it in order to make it safe.) That being said, if you sit down with them and plan out those things in advance you'll get amazing work. They work with skilled teams who do amazing work. We have a custom vanity that is one of my favorite pieces in my whole house.
Response from Gold Standard Builders, Inc.
"Hi Tish It was a pleasure working with you. We did not think about a mold test initially because the house was remodeled a couple of years ago with permits so we just assumed that a mold test would have been performed already. (Or at least should have been). As to the vanity issue, that was my personal mistake. We learn from those. Thanks again and all the best, Adam"

Gold Standard Builders helped my mom demolish an unpermitted patio, demolish and replace the old roof, demolish an old concrete slab, build a new patio and pour a new slab. If you decide to chose this company, keep on top of the project to report issues immediately, because this company works fast, so if you don't catch it then you may be very upset after all the work is done. My mom caught their subcontractor modifying the new patio without consulting her first. This issue resulted in an unexpected change that cost us $1.5k more. Overall the project cost $43k including permits. There were times when my mom got very upset, but Adam and his partner were able to address the issues. Overall, I think they will listen to your concerns and try their best to make sure your project happens the way you want. At the end of the project, my mom was satisfied.
Response from Gold Standard Builders, Inc.
"Raymond, thank you for your comments. Just to clarify, every project we do has to adhere to strict city and State codes. In this case, your mom wanted the patio ceiling higher than was possible by code. This resulted in dividing the patio cover into TWO separate patio covers to accommodate the height your mom wanted. I agree that we could have communicated this better. However, this was the only way in order to comply with the code AND satisfy your mom's wishes. This also resulted in the extra cost of $1,500 which was the cost of material and labor only! No profit was added to this cost. We appreciate you trusting in us and the last time I visited the house your mom told me she was very happy. Thank you and all the best to your family."
