We had a great experience with April Developments. They did our kitchen remodel, which involved removing a load bearing wall and adding back a new peninsula with counter-height seating. The work involved sanding and repainting some existing cabinets, adding new custom cabinets, installing a new countertop, installing a new sink & faucet, and removing and replacing the backsplash. They also did some minor electrical and plumbing work for us as well. When David came by to prepare an estimate, he was very thorough. He prepared a detailed estimate for us along with a rendering of what our finished kitchen would look like at the end. It was clear that David understood what we were looking for and priced his proposal accordingly. Other kitchen contractors we met with were very general and would only give us lump-sum proposals. When we determined that the wall we wanted to take out was load bearing, David was very proactive in finding an engineering firm that met our budget. David pulled structural, electrical, and plumbing permits for our remodel and handled inspections with the City of Torrance. His crews were clean and courteous. They cleaned up every day and they disposed of all of the waste and excess materials at the end of the job. There were only a couple of minor change orders throughout the process. When they came up, David was very upfront and candid with us. Overall, we had a great experience with April Developments and would certainly work with them again. read more
