BEFORE

A recent rain lead to a leak in my kitchen behind the high end stove and custom cabinetry. When the water remediation people got on there they had to cut the entire wall to the studs and treat the mold. I got multiple quotes on rebuilding the entire wall...WITHOUT having to gut the entire kitchen if you couldn't rebuild the custom cabinets and find tiles close enough to the 20-year-old travertine backsplash. Carlos took a look at the wall and the complications and then 1) gave me a more than fair price; 2) Found ways to significantly reduce the time of the project without sacrificing quality; 3) worked 8 hours a day 6 days a week; 4) Maintained excellent communication on a daily basis; 5) finished quickly and without going over budget. 10 of 10 I would recommend him to anyone and hope to hire him again for future projects.

Painting/floors/light/towel bar replacements

Carlos and his crew are excellent, he painted my living room, kitchen and bathroom, added vinyl floors to my kitchen/bathroom and a whole bunch of other replacements. The space had not had anything done for years.. and it needed a complete makeover. My space is completely transformed. Worth it!

Kitchen Cabinets refaced, new Kitchen Hood, New Tile Floors, New Sink , Electrical and new lights

Although this Review is a bit late , PLEASE take the time to read it Work was done in Feb 2018 Let me begin with how professional Carlos is, he came in to see my home gave me a solid bid and said he could do all the work in about 6 weeks. I wanted all the floors in all 3 bedrooms done, new kitchen floors, new living and family room floors. I wanted walls knocked down and paint throughout the house . Carlos was there 5 day a week on time, never late, stayed later at times to finish that days work. We has a bit of a Snaffu with the counter tops but Carlos came to the rescue. As the weeks went on , I kept adding additional projects like, ceiling fans in rooms, fix the bathroom fan, adding sconces to fireplace. Not once did he say no and to top off how wonderful I think he is. HE finished on time and I LOVE LOVE LOVE how my home turned out. If I could give Carlos and his crew a higher rating I would. He is soo reasonably priced and again one of the nicest people to work with. Trust me if you need beautiful detail work done . CALL Carlos ASAP . I included photos of some of the beautiful things he did Thanks AGAIN CARLOS ....

Initial framing.

If I could give 10 stars I would. I had a family room project that was too big and complicated for a handyman but too small for a general contractor. Carlos fit the bill perfectly. I wanted to build a sheetrock A-V and display cabinet for the family room and have a sliding door removed. Removing the sliding door, sheetrocking the interior, and replacing stucco on the exterior was a straightforward job which Carlos did excellently. Building the cabinet to my specifications was a different matter entirely. It required very careful framing and sheetrocking with rounded corners, appropriate texturing, and built-in strip lighting. I have attached photos of the framing and final cabinet (minus painting and glass shelving which I will do myself). The finished project speaks for itself. Despite a long commute to South San Jose, Carlos and Luis were on time for 11 straight days, and even worked one Saturday. Working through the exact details of the framing was complicated, but Carlos was always beyond pleasant. I just can't say enough about how pleased I am with how the whole project turned out.

We hired Carlos to remodel our kitchen and to put new new flooring throughout the entire house and to also take down a wall and add more outlets through the house. I couldn't be more please with the professionalism and workmanship of Carlos and his crew. Everything was done to above standards and on time. Carlos worked 5 days a week and was never late, even stayed later if needed. Always cleaned up after they left for the day and always respected our space if we were home during construction. By far exceeded my expectations. In love with everything that was done in my house especially the kitchen. Every circle on the backsplash is lined up perfectly. Little things like that I notice and can drive me and I couldn't find anything wrong. I wish I could give them 10 stars

See all

Terrible quality of work. I trusted him, and paid him in advance. He disappeared without finishing the job.

Could we find anyone willing to come out to the house on 1 days' notice, during a pandemic, help us choose bathroom wall color, and while they're at it, heck, just give us a color palette that works for the whole first floor of the house? Voila, Angelisse. When I called late on a Thursday, I spoke to Erin, the Office Mgr. who initially offered a Tuesday appt (impressive in itself.) I explained our time-dilemma, hoping we could get a consultation the next day, and thinking "no way is this going to happen." Erin listened thoughtfully, and asked if she could put me on hold a moment. She came back on the line with, "since you're a client of Carlene's, how would tomorrow at 10am work?" Wow! Angelisse spent an extremely productive 75 minutes in our home the next morning. She was able to take in the design scheme of our mid-century modern home, our style, furnishings, existing finishes, etc, (not easy to do with protective plastic sheeting everywhere!), take into account our wooded setting & outdoor space and come up with a cohesive plan that will work beautifully. She left us with a detailed written color schematic and large 8x10 color samples in our preferred line, Sherwin Williams. Her approach is focused, practiced, professional, intuitive. Can't recommend her highly enough.

She helped me pick the color for my house when i had it painted. Took her an hour to get it done…read more She's very good at what she does. I would use her again.

He did an excellent job reinforcing the damaged area and making sure the slats were properly supported and secure across the frame. The finished repair feels much sturdier and more stable than before, and everything was put back together neatly. The work looks clean and solid, not like a temporary patch. I'm very satisfied with how it turned out and would definitely recommend him for furniture or bed-frame repairs.

I decided to put out a bid on Yelp and received five responses. Stanislav stood out right away because he was transparent about pricing. He gave me a ballpark estimate upfront for the different scenarios I was considering: replacing just the two windows, replacing all the window screens, and replacing the patio screen door. That transparency and straightforward communication were what made me choose him. With my busy schedule, it was difficult for me to meet with Stanislav in person. Everything was coordinated through text messages, phone calls, and photos, so there was a lot of trust involved. Stanislav completely came through. The condo presented some unforeseen challenges, but Stanislav handled them without any problems. He completed the work on schedule, provided great service, and there were no issues or surprise costs. He did an excellent job, and the entire project was completed without us ever needing to meet in person. I really appreciated his professionalism, communication, transparency, and reliability. I would definitely recommend Stanislav to anyone looking for quality screen work.
