Los Angeles Remodeling Contractors

"I heard about through word of mouth.  We had a room in our house which was always dark and thus under-used, so we decided to place a new skylight and improve the overall lighting situation.  I had seen homes with "glowing skylights" i.e. skylights with electrical lights mounted internally for night time illumination, ...more and thought that a combination of that plus recessed

ceiling lights would be a good, energy-efficient arrangement so that we could make the room into a nice study space for our school-age children.

came to meet me and look at the space.  He appeared young but knowledgeable, dedicated, and trustworthy.  He had never tried making a glowing skylight but was open to the idea.  We communicated via email to toss around some design ideas and to review different

lighting options.  He gave me a reasonably priced proposal.  We had some bad weather around the time the project was supposed to begin, which understandably resulted in some postponement.  When the weather cleared up,

came by to

out the work on the ceiling and confirm that it was what I had envisioned. When the project began, there were some initial obstacles encountered - namely, a truss had to be cut to make room for the skylight opening. 

was resourceful in building two additional trusses flanking the skylight so that the original truss could be cut without causing any structural weaknesses in the roof.  I carefully examined the work as it progressed.  It was very thoughtful, well planned, and well executed. The job was completed just a few days ago.  Because of the truss issue, the job took some additional work, materials, and time.  The additional charges were again very reasonable.  The additional time did not bother me - it was clear that the job was being done carefully, and that

and his team were making daily progress.  I know that he has other jobs going on, but that did not distract him from making this project move along efficiently.  I really appreciated that. The skylight has greatly improved the whole atmosphere of our house.  I am happy when I see the sunlight in the morning.  At night, the reflected light from the fluorescents within the skylight opening has a simply beautiful quality (I am picky about these things).  The whole family is already getting a lot more use out of what was once a pretty depressing room. We are going to ask

and his team to work on several other projects.  This initial experience gave us a lot of confidence in him.  He has the skills, knowledge, and motivation to do a good job.  He communicates well and is honest.  His company is small, family-run, and employs a small number of trusted co-workers."

" provided excellent service. I was in need of removing an extra closet door and frame from my living room (I know, a weird request) and was a thoughtful and excellent listener to my problem at hand. We discussed many different options as a plan of execution - and I am more than happy with the end result ...more - a seamlessly, clean Living Room wall. I also requested and additional job of buffing and refinish the wood floors in all rooms of the home. He did an outstanding job and which I am very happy I used Angieslist to find him as a resource. He was easy to talk to and very good guy, full of good suggestions and ideas (a "no pressure" guy). He was able to squeeze the work I requested into his schedule - and for that I am most appreciative for. I will be using him the future - and I would strongly recommend the work that he had performed on my home."

"It went horribly wrong. We initially contacted them in November 2010 for the repairs. They came out pretty quickly to take care of the leaky roof, but everything else took months to fix. When they finally returned to fix the interior where the leak was (2 months later) they did a bad patch up job. They didn't even use the same color paint to cover the ...more ruined drywall. It took them another 2 months to come out to fix the fence. When they did they promised us that they would replace the broken pieces with treated and matching wood to the rest of the fence and would be back 2 days later to do it. A week later they came out and slapped up a piece of wood that is not the same type, color or finish as the rest of the fence. They also refused to fix the wood on the broken garage door, telling us we would have to pay $225 for that repair (a job that a handyman could do with a drill and a couple of screws for less then $50 most likely). I would not recommend this contractor. Taking almost 5 months to fix problems that stemmed from their original workmanship and in the meantime not returning phone calls and being rude to the client proves them to be unprofessional."

"The company design was perfect . If there was a problem i never new about it. I worked so i gave them a key. Was honest and did the most beautiful perfect job. It was finished on the date promised worked within my finances."

"This was the third company I called for an estimate. showed up right on time. Explained what they were going to do. Unllike the other companies I called, did not try to talk me into extra needed work done. The crew showed up promptly, The two men working the layed plastic sheeting ...more down in my car port, worked hard, no radio playing. They plastered my back balcony

, which means they had to come thru my house. The first thing they did was to

plastic sheeting on my floor from the front door to my balcony. Very neat work, they were not sloppy. Clean lines working with the plaster. Same with the bathroom. All work finished on time."

"I?ve been thinking of doing a room addition for many years now, and I always felt that one thing was missing. And that was a bigger master bedroom and a master closet, but I didn?t know where or how it was going to fit in the space I had. So I went online and found Advanced. Nick came out and came up with the perfect solution. The Advanced team added ...more new master bedroom and a huge walk in closet for me. They were able to bring out the master bedroom without compromising the size of my backyard. It was so well designed and built!"

"Overall it was an excellent experience. Job started a a few days after signing contract which was one day after my first contact with them. From start to completion it was only two days. Everything was well coordinated. Hot Mop crew arrived a few minutes after the plumber finished his job so no time was wasted. Defiantly will recommend them in the future. ...more It was a small job but I felt they treated it as it if was a big one."

"They were reliable, did very good quality work and were great for structural work as well. They have been doing some overall renovation for me. I paid them $75,000 for a large number of items. They did foundation replacement, renovation for my downstairs, additions, and other general work, repairs and maintenance. I would use them again in the future if necessary."
