    I really needed to get my grandmothers fence door fixed because it was falling apart. I worked with a man by the name of Fred and I experienced the most positive experience. Fred was very communicative and provided exceptional customer service. Fred offered me various solutions to fix the fence based on what I wanted and could afford. He even FaceTimed me while I was working to show me the issues with the fence and to explain which things need to be done for future jobs on the fence for better security. I would highly recommend this company if you're looking for a contractor. I have work with many contractors and this was the most positive experience that I've had in a long time. 10/10

    Fred was super nice and easy to work with! They finished the fence work quickly and efficiently. We're really happy with the results and would highly recommend.

    Great, fast work in building a side-driveway fence! Would recommend! Fred installed a 30' wood fence with metal posts in one day. Looks great!

    I had several inquiries about my project and only Fred came out to look at the project. Replace a gate and fix a plank in another gate. Fred was knowledgeable and friendly. Made me feel at ease. I did contract with him and he did the job in 1/2 a day. Outstanding work. He explained the issues with the gates and how to prevent the same thing from happening again. I highly recommend Fred and will hire him again for future projects.

    This used to be a broken leanning fence, now it looks new.

    Fred and his crew fix our fence in a day and gave us a veriy good and reasonable quote. Everything provided but he also gave the option og buying the materials myself. Good person and quality work. Thanks Fred looking forward in doing business again in the near future.

    Fred is wonderful to work with - professional, friendly and super adaptable. He and his crew demolished my old termite ridden fence, replaced it and had it painted in three days! They hauled away all of the old material and left the yard perfectly clean. There were challenges that Fred met without fuss - huge bamboo bushes very close to the fence. I don't know how they did it but they managed the get behind it and replace and paint the fence - no small task! His prices are very reasonable too! Highly recommend!

    The whole team performed great! From a very professional, detailed quote. To flexibility in the changes to the quote, as well as the flexibility to dealing with 2 storms! **Note to costumers, Fred can't change the weather but he'll make sure your project is done thoroughly.** An easy choice for anyone trying to get a project done but cannot be onsite, while I was across the country I was updated at key points in the project.

    Replaced fence, perfect, and ready for paint.

    I reviewed estimates from different companies, my neighbor and I went with Fred's company. Not only did he provide insight to my previous, collapsing fence, but he gave me solutions/ options, did not give me any pressure, and answered all questions. I reviewed a detailed, digital quote with the price for work, and it was easy to see everything before making a decision. The tear down of the old fence went smooth, they hauled it as well. I'm very glad we went with galvanized posts, instead of pressure treated wood. Communication was great, and the work crew was extremely nice and professional. Anyone looking for a fence repair, should definitely give Fred and his crew a call. Their price is great, as is the quality of their work. My daughters and I, are about to paint and my hope is, your next fence project, is with Fred and his crew. -Eddie

    Wonderful Fence installation and design! Fred was extremely responsive and helped to guide the decision making process

    Fred and his crew installed my 2 gates on time and on schedule. The gates are well-constructed and very sturdy. I picked Alpha Hanyman because when talking to Fred I could tell he knew his trade really well. After I found Fred on Yelp, I stopped looking for a contractor. The gate posts are mounted in cement. I opted for pressure-treated wood constructed in the picture frame style. The pane next to the stucco is floating off the 4x4 post. Everything is to SD city code and Fred explains the options very well. I am pleased with my gates and would use Fred's Alpha Handyman again.

The project included bathroom remodeling, kitchen remodeling, new flooring throughout the house, and interior painting. From beginning to end, the entire experience was smooth, professional, and very well organized. Amit, the project manager, was outstanding throughout the entire process.

Anytime we had questions or concerns, he responded quickly and made sure everything was handled professionally. One thing that truly stood out was the quality control and attention to detail. The workmanship exceeded our expectations, and every part of the project was completed with care and precision. The crew maintained a clean and safe work environment every single day, which made the remodeling process much less stressful for our family. The project was completed on schedule, and the final results completely transformed our home. We are extremely satisfied with the quality of work and the level of customer service we received.

We had to work through an obstructive HOA, which caused unnecessary and illegal delays, but Omri stuck with us. We also encountered an unanticipated drainage issue that we resolved together. , The fence and retaining wall are not just well-constructed; they are beautiful. If you are seeking cheap, Beyond is not for you, but if you are looking for quality that will last for decades at a reasonable price, they are a good choice.

Based on that storyline, they're refusing to take responsibility for the flooring damage. The windows were installed without permits. I brought in four independent inspections, including three licensed general contractors and one home inspector. All confirmed active water intrusion and pointed to the window installation as the likely source. Despite that, Forever Builders continues to deny, redirect, and avoid addressing the actual installation. The floors never had water intrusion before the remodel. The problem started after their work. Instead of owning it and fixing it, they've chosen to argue technicalities and wait for CSLB to force the issue. For a company that promotes itself as 5-star, this has been anything but. When serious defects surface, there's no urgency, no accountability, and no effort to stand behind the work. Just excuses. That is not 5-star service. That is not what integrity looks like.

    Review Update (2026)…read more I am updating my original 5-star review from a few years ago. At the time, we were very happy with our kitchen remodel and the overall experience working with Creative Design & Build. The project turned out beautifully, which is why I originally left such a positive review. Over the years, however, I noticed that one section of the flooring felt slightly soft when walking on it. At first, it did not seem serious, so we continued to live with it. Recently, the problem became worse and a section of the floor began to noticeably sink when stepped on and eventually a few edges of the flooring broke. At that point, I became concerned that it could become a safety issue. Because we still had plenty of spare flooring boards left over from the project, I attempted to replace the affected board myself. Unfortunately, I was unable to get the new board to fit correctly due to the locking system, and I could not restore the original board either. I then contacted Creative Design & Build for assistance. One reason I reached out was because our original project manager, Oded, had told us that if we ever had any issues, we should contact the company. I left a voicemail and later received a return call from a staff member. After I explained the situation, she said she would check with management and get back to me. A few days later, I received a text message stating that the warranty had expired and that no repairs would be covered. This was disappointing because I had never been informed that there was a four-year warranty period, nor was I able to find any reference to such a limitation in our contract. When I asked for details regarding the warranty and whether they could recommend someone to repair the issue, I did not receive any further response. There were two other issues relating to electrical and plumbing, however we decided to live with that until we had a major problem we needed fixing. I still appreciate the work that was done on our remodel years ago, and our kitchen remains a space we enjoy. However, I have been disappointed by the lack of follow-up and support when a problem arose. My advice to future customers is to make sure all warranty terms, coverage details, and expiration dates are clearly documented and understood before signing a contract.
