We interviewed six general contractors for our kitchen remodel and decided to award our contract to Avi of Concord Construction. As soon as he walked through our door, he presented us with his contractor's license, bonding and insurance and a set of references (all of whom I vetted, and they were happy with the quality of Avi's work). During the interview, Avi listened to what we wanted and offered several thoughtful suggestions to flesh out and improve our concept. He was forthright with his suppliers, including his kitchen cabinet manufacturer (which we visited to inspect the quality of the product and were very pleased with what we found). When it came time to sit down to draft our contract, Avi listened to what we wanted and we came to an agreement on the job's specifications; the contract was very detailed and we felt secure that it reflected specific language of the job. BTW: Avi wasn't the cheapest bid; we had multiple offers that were lower than his, but we appreciated his honesty, his willingness to work with us and his promise to complete the job right and within his projected time. Every time I've reached out to Avi, he has responded promptly; I have never felt ignored. When something needed to be adjusted, it was; I never had to ask twice. Since beginning, we have added several changes to our original contract (i.e. installing a new waterproof subfloor, repositioning a wall to add 10 inches of space to our tight galley kitchen, and updating our electrical panel from 100 amp to 200 amp); I ran all surcharges by my brother (who is a commercial general contractor) and all price estimates were more than fair considering the present market value of materials; so we agreed to expand the scope of the job and are glad we did. We are four weeks in, and so far everything has gone smoothly. Avi's employees have been courteous, knowledgeable and punctual; they always clean up at the end of the day so the space is accessible. We feel we made the right decision going with Avi; it's never easy inviting a contractor into your home, but Avi has worked hard to ensure we are happy. I trust Avi, and so can you. So far, he has delivered our vision, and I cannot wait to see the finished product. I will update this review upon completion of the job. I have attached several photos of the progress for your observation. read more
