Robert said he would be here between 1 and 2 on the day to provide an estimate and was there at 1. He started on the day as promised and completed the job in a timely manor. He and his team were great in removing the old material and did a great job overall. Very pleased with the outcome ."

"Cesar and his crew just finished a remodel of my master bathroom. This is the second major project completed in my home by CSZ (prior kitchen remodel) and once again they exceeded my expectations. Cesar worked with me along the way to come up with the perfect design to ensure all my requirements were met. He is knowledgeable and his attention to detail is second to none. The CSZ crew, Armondo and Benjamin were also a pleasure to work with. They are knowledgeable, trustworthy, and hardworking. They also did an exceptional job cleaning up at the end of each work day. My dog even loves them! I highly recommend CSZ Construction. They will most certainly be back for future projects in my home!"

He is very detailed and clean in his work, offers good advice and is easy to work with. He goes above and beyond to make everything right. I would definitely hire him again."
"Freddy and his team are great. They are organized, neat and cleaned up once job was completed. They did a great job pairing my foyer and hallways which contained many detailed moldings. Highly recommended!"
