Fahan Construction, quite simply, did an incredible job. That's the long and short of it. They…read moreimpressed, whether it was with the handling of inspections and inspectors, the transparency with financials, or the simply trade itself, John Shaw and his team were always on top of our renovation. Professional, respectful, and highly communicative, he was always there whenever we needed him, by text, phone, or in person, if we needed reassurance, advice or progress reports he always seemed to be right on the ball. It's hard to communicate just how important this is to keep the blood pressure down while undertaking something as life altering as a major home renovation, but we always felt Fahan had it under control. Our project was completed on schedule, 7 months to do a new kitchen, master bath, staircase installation, family room and deck, plus electrical and lots of small detail work around the house. Seven months is really something considering how easily big renovations like ours can go off the rails. Horror stories abound, and we, quite literally, had none. What a huge relief. In terms of costs, Fahan was transparent and upfront with us. They estimated and invoiced all expected and unexpected costs up front, and clearly stated any potential overruns. There were some, but none that we felt were from left field, and for each one we were given options to keep in line with what we were comfortable with. We understood and signed off on everything before anything moved forward, with a comforting degree of transparency. The only downside we could see was that the pricing tended to be high. It's not entirely clear however if this was due to the current economic conditions of '22-'23 or if it's just what quality work and workmanship costs. But as they say, you get what you pay for. Overall, we felt well-taken care of throughout the process, like there was an insider who knew the business, the pitfalls and the tricks. "I trust them", were words we uttered more than once. Most of the time we weren't even at the house, only catching up on the progress on weekends, but we always knew that the work would get done and with little to no issues along the way. THe house turned out amazing. We really couldn't be happier with the work they did. Fahan's just a quality outfit, contractors and subs, that you should trust with your house too. Just top-shelf all the way. Two thumbs up.

Highly recommend Fahan Construction (John and his crew) -- they were absolutely perfect and you…read morewill be extremely satisfied with their services too! We hired Fahan for a number of projects at our home in the Outer Sunset of San Francisco: building a new deck, extending power and plumbing to the back yard, replacing our leaky roof, providing access to the new deck from our bedroom and a number of other misc projects inside our home. All of these projects were completed on time and with superb quality. John was incredibly friendly, professional and responsive throughout the whole process. He was extremely thorough: from working with the architect to co-ordinating with all the inspectors, to introducing us to all the members on his team and what we could expect from them on a regular basis. He managed the whole project effectively by providing us with timely quotes, invoices and being diligent about addressing any follow up questions we had. If there were any unforeseen issues with the weather or supply chain issues, John kept us informed and worked around each of these issues while keeping the project on time. Every single day, his team would show up on time and work diligently while keeping us posted if they needed anything. When we wanted something updated or changed, they obliged us immediately. What was particularly impressive is that they pulled off a number of different projects working across 3-4 different groups of people! I will definitely miss them around our home. And will reach out to them we need anything built or fixed moving forward.

Nick has been available through the years to answer questions and to help our friends with home remodeling needs. Don't hesitate to choose Firth Construction. You can rest easily knowing that Nick will care for your house as if it's his own and he knows his stuff. He will solve issues that arise. You won't have to intervene and you will be very glad that you chose the right, conscientious contractor. In contrast, we undertook a major remodel with a different GC over the last year. We didn't use Firth Construction because of our scheduling and timing needs; however, we have major regrets that we didn't wait for Nick and his team to be available. We have had numerous headaches with the other company with many things having to be redone and having to settle with "good enough" because we had no choice. We had to bring in our own sub contractors to complete some work so we could feel comfortable that it was done correctly. In fact, we are still waiting for the GC to finish major work and are sitting in limbo with only one (of three) fully functional bathrooms, which is the bathroom Firth Construction did years ago. It's been extremely stressful, frustrating and disappointing. Renovations aren't always easy and unexpected things will happen; however, you can give yourself peace of mind and less stress if you choose Firth Construction. I wish we had and we are paying the price now.

We worked with Shai at Lion General Construction on a major home renovation that included a new…read moreprimary bedroom and bathroom addition, a basement and downstairs bathroom buildout, as well as electrical upgrades and interior improvements to our upstairs. From start to finish, Shai was incredibly thorough, honest, and communicative. What really stood out was his ability to strike the right balance between function, aesthetics, and budget. He never pushed unnecessary upgrades, but instead laid out options clearly, explaining the pros and cons of each so we could make informed decisions. His eye for design and attention to detail helped us create a space that feels both beautiful and highly functional. Throughout the process, Shai was candid and reliable--qualities that can be hard to find in the construction world. We always felt he had our best interests in mind, and he treated the project as if he were working on his own home. We're incredibly happy with the outcome and would wholeheartedly recommend Shai and Lion General Construction to anyone looking for a trustworthy and skilled contractor.

Shai built us a powder room during the pandemic, and came in right on time and on budget. Recently, he renovated our kitchen, laundry room, and back deck. Our house is old and full of surprises, and Shai takes it all in stride. He has great intuition for problem solving both big and small issues as they arise. He's also upfront when work is out of scope from the estimate so there are no unexpected expenses. He wants you to be happy with the end result and puts in the effort to make it happen. We are so impressed with his work and love our new space. Thank you Shai & team!

From the moment John walked into our home I immediately felt a sense of relief. We were extremely…read morenervous and overwhelmed because our baby had tested positive for lead, and making sure our apartment was safe for our family became our top priority. We had so many worries and questions, but John took the time to listen, explain everything, and put our hearts at ease. From that first conversation, I felt like we were truly in good hands. John and his team went above and beyond to make our home safe and beautiful again. The work they did transformed our place and made it feel brand new. What impressed me just as much as the quality of the work was how incredibly clean everything was when they finished. Given everything we had been through and how worried we were about our baby's safety, that attention to detail meant more to us than I can put into words. There were also a few areas we reviewed that remained potential concerns, and John and his team didn't simply walk away once the main work was finished. They made the effort to come back and address those areas on their own time because they genuinely cared about making sure everything was taken care of properly. You can truly tell when someone puts their heart and soul into their work, and that is exactly how I felt with John and his team. Their professionalism, compassion, integrity, and commitment to doing things the right way are exceptional. I am so thankful that our landlord chose this restoration company to work with. I would wholeheartedly recommend John and his team to anyone looking for a company they can genuinely trust. They didn't just fix our home -- they gave our family peace of mind during an incredibly stressful time. For that, we will always be grateful.

We worked with Phil to renovate two bathrooms, each of which had highly technical tile-setting requirements. He was careful and meticulous with how he approached each of the bathrooms. Phil's work included all of the drywall installation, custom shower pan fabrication, custom heated floor installation, tile-setting, and painting. To make sure that the tile layout was perfect, he built a makeshift table in our downstairs common area and then cut and laid out each individual piece of tile prior to install. Phil is also a great problem solver. We had several unforeseen issues arise (as they always do with construction) and Phil came up with really creative solutions. Last, Phil was very transparent and reasonable with his pricing. Overall, we couldn't be happier with Phil's work and really look forward to working with him again on future projects.

We have just finished our  home renovation with Superb builders, and I am ecstatic over the changes…read moreand the difference it has made for a home that has not been touched in over 50 years.  David has a skill in seeing what most other contractors or designers cannot imagine. Victor (project manager/foreman) has everything in control, day to day, and does not forget a thing.  We interviewed four other contractors, and they couldn't come up with the right floorplan for our kitchen. We did not want to settle.  David designed our kitchen and more than doubled the size.  No problem moving plumbing or switching to gas from electric and finding a better home for our fridge. Our primary bathroom was completely gutted to add a stand-alone tub, and Superb designed a walk-in closet and additional hall closet taking a foot from the adjoining room, which you would never be able to tell. He has a crew for different sets of workmanship, and they know exactly what to do in a strategic time frame. They do not waste any time and clean up the projects beautifully every day.  We had completely gutted our kitchen and primary bathroom. Had the whole house rewired, new plumbing, new LED lights throughout the house, all new flooring on the first floor, and refinished all flooring upstairs.   Superb builders accommodated every wishlist we had.  Their workmanship is precise, clean and the crew are very helpful and pleasant to work with from beginning to end.   Our biggest appreciation is that David and Victor picked up their phones or returned texts right away 100%. They passed every inspection every time, and they have done the work beyond the requirements. We are so happy to know that all the work has been done properly and safely. We will always call Superb builders for all of our future projects.  I trust that they will get the job done right, and David can help design or find a beautiful solution to any difficult home layout you may have.  They do not just remodel a space, they can build a perfect new space. Thank you David, Victor and all the wonderful crew at Superb builders!

I wouldn't have been able to come up with such a wonderful design without his advices. Additionally, the cabinet vendor he recommended had great prices and they assisted with designing the kitchen layout by providing computer drawn images using software. This saved a lot of time in the planning stage. Joe was our primary point of contact from start to finish, which made things go smoothly. During project execution, Victor was an invaluable point of contact for discussing and explaining technical details about our options, especially when inevitable complications arose. When we demo'd our old kitchen we found a major code violation that was concealed and they helped us correct the issue. It cost us extra but looking back I'm happy we worked with an ethically sound contractor who does things correctly and follows the city code. Those things can be huge problems later if you try to cut corners! Overall we had a great experience with Superb Builders and would definitely hire them again. They are very professional and do great work. We ended up with our dream kitchen for less than market average prices in our area!
