There were so many little things that we, as the homeowners, had to catch and ask for corrections. Plus at the completion of construction and final payment sent we received nothing from the owner. Not even a "thank you for your business" or we hope you were satisfied with our work". I actually had one of our neighbors ask who was doing our remodel. I told them but also said "I would not recommend them. Really disappointed because I loved the owner/contractor in the beginning. She was absolutely fantastic! But then went MIA for the rest of the project read more

I wanted to get an estimate from this company for a complete bathroom remodel. I went to their website and sent a message. After two days of no response, I called and left a voicemail. I then received an email asking me to call a certain number to schedule with Alena for a design consultation. I called that number and left a voicemail. The next day I called again and left a voicemail. I did mention in my message that I've been trying to reach them repeatedly. I've now made four attempts to reach this company. This is ridiculous. I guess either my one bathroom remodel was too small for them to consider or their customer service and response team is way under par. I do not recommend this company after this experience. read more

The whole team at BA Worthing was a pleasure to work with! We had them do an add on for a master bedroom and bathroom. From the initial quote to the final walkthrough. They are professional, quick to communicate, clean and use high quality contractors that are exceptional in their craft. BA Worthing is a true local company that that utilized local contractors, which I love that about them. The quality of work performed is rare to find now a days. We were so happy with them we now have them working on our commercial build. read more

Brooks was referred by a friend and came with fantastic reviews after doing several months of work with them. Brooks and his team were incredibly professional, honest, respectful of our space and fair. We are thrilled with the result and had such a great experience with their team and the professionals that they work with. If you are doing any kind of renovation, I recommend you give Brooks a call. read more

BA Worthing is the company you need to use for any construction or remodel project IMO. They have completed major construction and remodel jobs for me over the last 2 years. First, they constructed a stand alone garage. Brooks did the drawings, dealt with the county planners, moved the project quickly with great communication each step of the way. Next they helped with turning my old garage into 2 beautiful bedrooms where you'd never know it wasn't part of the original home (except it's a little nicer) and they helped remodel a bathroom. The whole team from the top down are total pros. read more

B A Worthing built a two bedroom granny flat for us that exceeded all our expectations. It was done on time and on budget. We could not be happier with the result or the time frame. The contractors and subcontractors (carpenters, plumbers, and electricians) were all very skilled and pleasant. I have recommended B A Worthing to my friends. Thank you Brooks, John, Bill, Andy, Pancho and all that worked on our project. read more

We have just had our third project completed by the B A Worthing team and we are more than happy with the result. This last job was a master bedroom and bathroom remodel including an attic conversion into a study and walk in closet space. We used B A Worthing for the whole process from drawing up the design and plans, dealing with the city and through to construction and project completion. John was our project supervisor, he was professional, timely, respectful and committed to the job. Thank you to all involved. read more

Brooks Worthing and his amazing team built us an attached granny flat and remodeled portions of our existing home. The design that Brooks came up with complements the site and the final result exceeded all of our expectations. We have the highest regard for the subcontractors that Brooks uses; they are consumate professionals and so pleasant to work with. A special thank you to John E., the project supervisor, for his constant diligence, daily communication, and commitment to details. Everyone who sees the addition remarks about the quality of work and the overall beauty of the project. Thank You to the entire team at BA Worthing. We welcome the opportunity to recommend you to others and are always happy to talk to future clients who are thinking about embarking on a similar project. Teri and Eliot M read more

My wife and I have embarked on a 1st floor remodel. We interviewed 3 General Contractors and received feedback from friends and neighbors. We decided B.A.Worthing (BAW) was the best choice for our project. BA met with us, gave us a spreadsheet with timelines, costs and responsibilities. We were responsible for certain items. BAW was responsible for scheduling, installation and putting all the pieces of this puzzle together. BAW assigns site supervisors to each job. They are responsible for scheduling sub contractors, making sure everything goes together as agreed in the contract and ensuring timelines and costs stay on target. Most of the subcontractors have worked with BAW for years, some even decades. They are timely, polite, professional craftsmen and it is appreciated that they clean up every day before leaving. Our Supervisor is Brandon. I believe he is responsible for 5 jobs throughout the North County. He visits us most every day to go over the work that will take place that day and to check on progress. If there are any questions that come up we will text Brandon and without fail he gets back to us within an hour or less. He is knowledgeable, patient and without fail asks if we have any issues or conerns, that is greatly appreciated. Brandon has been exemplary and we have no reason to think it will not continue. Because there are a number of jobs going on, contractor start times may vary but we are always notified by Brandon as to when and what to expect. We are going into our 4th week and the progress and quality of work confirms our selection of BAW to be the right one, thus the 5 stars. BA, Brandon, Shelley in the office and the various contractors we have met are all FIRST CLASS! Our satisfaction is the reason we have and will continue to recommend B.A.Worthing without reservation.

I could not have asked for a better contractor for my guesthouse in Cardiff! They finished on time, on budget, and exceeded my expectations. Their team was professional and cleaned up EVERY day! Alena and John are exceptional. Highly recommend. read more

We contracted BA Worthing to help us with a water proofing issue on the exterior of our building. This was not a cosmetic job - and this was not any type of remodel or building job. And yet, BA Worthing took on our job as if it was the most important job for them. Knowing that they generally do high end or large projects, I was completely amazed at the professional work, the attention to details, the amazing communication between the folks on site and with us - that they provided us, even though this really was a small job AND it had no exterior show - in other words, the work that was completed was not the kind of work you could show off for cosmetic reasons - all the work was underground. BA Worthing arranged all the work, hired the most conscientious crews for the various jobs, and always kept us in the loop. AND, BA Worthing always returned our calls, came out at exact set time appointments. In my 30+ years of dealing with various contractors and skilled workers, I have never experienced such amazing work. 100% satisfied...100% thrilled with their customer service throughout the process...100% thrilled with the confidence they instilled throughout the 2-week process. Brooks and Chris, my hats off to you both...we thank you for a totally pain-free experience! Hemlock Condo Association Carlsbad CA read more

I had planned to wait to write this review until our job was completed but this morning, when we were awakened at 7:30--again!--by unannounced banging, I decided not to wait. While the workers have been pleasant, the job supervisor (Brandon) and the carpentry subcontractor (Bill McKenzie) have been highly disappointing. The job started on August 10th and has dragged on and on. Part of the problem is that materials often were not ordered in a timely manner; Brandon often seemed surprised that something (for example,a new window, replacement tub surround) needed to be ordered and so we had to wait weeks. If the item had been ordered when the job started (and thus when Brooks Worthing, owner of the company, knew it would be needed), the job would have been completed quite a while ago. We have been told the items arrived, that the items had not arrived but were expected, that only one of the items arrived, etc. Another big problem has been Brandon's seeming inability to comprehend that we would like to know when workers are coming and when they aren't. No one has worked on the job for two weeks, but this morning guys started work without our being given any notice. The workers were contacted last Friday, but no one from Worthing thought we might like to know. The flip side of today's situation is the many days when we were told workers were coming and either no one showed up that day or they were hours late. As for Bill McKenzie, he has almost never shown up when Brandon said he was expected. Early in the job, he pulled my husband aside and tried to convince him to make a unilateral decision to add more work (and more expense) to the project. Bill installed a skylight window in our bathroom, but we still don't know when he did it. He never showed up at the times he was expected, but instead did it on his own schedule. And, the reason they were at our house today way to remove and replace siding they had installed incorrectly, not aligning the grooves in both sections. They also purchased low quality siding with a very rough texture, so that will have to be sanded (after already being installed and painted) and repainted. Of course we will not pay for them to fix these mistakes but we are having to put up with the extended time having our house in shambles and we are very unhappy about the wasted materials that will end up in landfill. I suggest you use almost any other contractor than B.A. Worthing and McKenzie Construction. read more

This is definitely an unsolicited review!!! B.A. Worthing, Inc. recently completed construction of an expansion of the kitchen dining nook at my home. The total price was just under $10000. From start to finish I could not have been more pleased. Not only was the project finished in a timely manner - 2 weeks total from permit issued to final city signoff - it was completed in a professional way in every respect. The scope of the job required the following activity: draw up complete set of plans, cut out part of a cement patio, install rebar for new foundation, pour cement slab, reroute rain gutter down spout, demolish 3 outside walls, frame in the new walls, install 3 new windows, put matching stucco on the outside walls, install drywall on inside walls and ceiling, paint drywall to my color request, move electrical outlets and ceiling fixture, and lay new hardwood flooring to match existing hardwood floors. Also included were requests for and handling of the city inspections. To me, the key factors of success were: Accurate estimate and disclosure of the costs of the project; The project area was cleaned up after each day's activity; The Project Manager always kept me informed of the next activity to take place; The workers always showed up when I was told they would; The high quality of workmanship and professionalism of the entire crew; and the care everyone took to keep my home as construction-proof as was possible. There were simply 'no surprises' - I liked that!!! All the guys were good, but I would specifically like to give kudos and special thanks to Chris Meier, the Project Manager. He was simply great. He always kept me informed of progress, he was responsive to my special requests, he got the crew there when he said he would, and he handled the little details as well as the large details expertly and professionally. Wonderful job Chris - thanks. As to payments. Checks were written as the project progressed. The first check was required only after the first 20% of work was complete (foundation poured). Other payments were made as the work hit certain completion points. Payments were always after the work had been done to my satisfaction. Payments included all parts, materials and labor, insurance, workmen's compensation, and of course their profit. There were no 'hidden' charges. I would absolutely and without reservation recommend this company to friends, family and everyone who needs a contractor. Robert (Van) Van Hise read more

We had the crew at BAW do a second story addition for us and from design all the way through to completion, we couldn't have been happier with everyone involved. Brooks himself was extremely knowledgable and easy to work with in the design and early stages and his Project Manager that we had, Chris Meier, was the epitome of professionalism, reliability and an eagerness to make sure ech step of the job was done efficiently, properly and that we were happy with it. I cant recommend them highly enough and it really made an arduous process (6 months) that much easier and the results are exceptional. They, and all of their subs they use, really listen and take pride in their work. An easy 5 stars to give. read more
