I called two local plumbers (Pristine and Poseidon) and left messages stating my problem (backed up toilet and shower) and where I lived. I didn't receive a call back from either plumbers. I called Cornerstone and received a call back in less than 5 minutes. They had an expert plumber out to me in less than 30 minutes. Dennis snaked the downstairs bathroom and was finished in an hour. I highly recommend CPS for all your plumbing needs. Thank you, Cornerstone Property Services for hiring expert plumbers who are both friendly and professional. Now enough of my review, I have a poopie bathroom floor that needs my attention! read more

Cornerstone Construction Property Services - General Contractors Near Me - San Clemente, California

We are very happy and truly amazed with the extensive restoration and remodel provided by Cornerstone Property Services that was completed in April 2015. Our 2 downstairs bathrooms and foyer closet were completely rebuilt by Cornerstone. We had contacted 3 other construction companies to obtain estimates on this project and decided to proceed with Cornerstone based on their reputation for quality work, reasonable price, and their outstanding customer reviews. While another full-service company was recommended by our home owners insurance, we found that the volume of local reviews for Cornerstone and their responses to our questions were clearly superior. Once the water remediation and air quality testing was completed by the original company recommended by our insurance company, we started to obtain reconstruction estimates for our home in Fountain Valley, CA. Then, after a reality check on the cost and time required to properly rebuild those rooms, we decided to re-pipe our home before proceeding with the reconstruction. Having an older home with copper pipes laid into the concrete slab and having had to reroute a hot water pipe 2 years ago in our kitchen due to a slab leak, it was the logical choice to re-pipe before attempting the 2 bathroom rebuilds. We had Ameri-Cal Repipe & Plumbing do the full house re-piping because that was their specialty and we were still interviewing construction companies for the full rebuild at the time. Ameri-Cal did an excellent job I am happy to say. By the time the re-piping was done, we had a tentative shopping list of the materials that we wanted for the rebuild of the 2 bathrooms and foyer closet. Steve Cederquist and his staff at Cornerstone helped us refine the list and keep the project within our budget. After I signed the construction contract, Cornerstone started the project the following week and that start date was ahead of schedule. During the project, his supervisors and work crew provided good communication and care in working through each phase of the project and keeping the worksite cleaned up on a daily basis. We had porcelain wood-like floors installed, new electrical switches & circuits, a new ceiling mounted Air-King heater, fan, & light combo, new composite bathtub, new subway style tiles in the guest bathroom, new curved bathtub shower rod, new master bath shower pan, new shower drain trap, hot mop for the shower pan, new shower tiles, tall shower pass-through doors in master bathroom, new Kohler toilets, Kohler sinks, Kohler sink faucets, new medicine cabinets, new vanities, new vanity mirrors installed, along with new drywall, primer paint, finish paint on the walls and doors, reconstructed door casings & door jambs, and new baseboard moldings. The Cornerstone project was completed in only 3 weeks elapsed time. We happily moved back to our home after our insurance company allowed us to stay free of charge at the local Marriott Residence Inn for 3 months while the materials testing, demolition, water remediation, air quality testing, re-piping, and reconstruction took place. read more

~Two months after my initial complaint, my situation is finally resolved. Steve (owner) seems like a nice guy but doesn't always follow through on calls/updates when specifically asked to do so( & he confirmed, blamed his staff=doesn't take ownership). Needless to say, disappointed in the leadership. Giving 3 stars because the staff is great. A-OK. read more

Frank E. took over ownership in 2018 as I recall. We contracted with him for a major remodel of our interior including a compete new kitchen, guest bath, enlarging master bedroom and adding additional closet space, plus more. There were several hurdles that came up during work and Cornerstone found ways to successfully correct each one. Cornerstone used high end products and all work was completed to our satisfaction. Each and every employee was a pleasure to work with at our home. Special thanks to Frank, Jarrod, and Teddy for their input and making our remodel shine. read more

Disappointing experience from Cornerstone Property. They must be really busy because from the point of initial contact to actually getting a call back took a week. This first call back was to ask about 10-15 questions about the project, the only question they forgot to ask was my social security number. Call back #2 was to ask the same questions again and to ask what my budget was for the project. Call #3 a week later was to inform me that they wont take the project, but almost a month later from my first call I found another contractor. Here are a couple of tips: If you don't have a minimum budget of $20,000 don't bother calling them. If your project can wait a month to go through a "consideration" process call them. If you are into taking chances try them out. My friend's house is having issues already from the work they did. read more

Cornerstone is a great maintenance company. Prices are fair, service is great. The office staff is prompt in scheduling and always friendly. I highly reccommend them for any of your maintenance needs. They offer plumbing, electrical, minor & major maintenance service. They came on time and the guys are super nice. Kamren at Cornerstone was very professional and polite. Its nice to have a company so personable and professional at the same time!!! read more

Just called and talked to Jennifer trying to schedule an appointment for them to come out and provide an estimate. I explained that they had come out before but since the property had asbestos and mold damage that it had to go through remediation. She said that they were too busy and that first it would be two weeks and then stated later it would be a month. I guess they don't want anymore of our business. read more

Because of my property management company I have had the pleasure of having work with Corner Stone on several occasions. Who ever comes to do the work is on time professional and thorough. The last time was just this week and Earl (electrician) and Dennis ( plumber) were outstanding. Dennis went above and beyond the call of duty to make sure the job was done right the first time. Earl explained everything and was beyond professional. Both these gentlemen and the owners/ management are outstanding. Also Crystal is amazing, professional and thorough also. Thank you all!!!!! read more

Phenomenal company and great customer service. I have dealt with crystal in the office numerous times. Very responsive and nice. This is hands down the best company anyone could ever ask to do on your business or house. I had them replace the AC unit on my business. It has never worked so good since I have owned the business. Thanks so much for the great work and your honest prices and great customer service. I will be using your company for many more things in the future. read more

Earl is the best electrician ever! This is your only place to go for all home repairs. You won't be disappointed with the owner Steve's exceptional service and caring about what he and his employees do. If you use anyone else, you'll be calling Cornerstone to repair the crappy job someone else did! All plumbers, maintenance staff are exceptionally great people and do an awesome job. read more

We initially called Cornerstone Property Services while in the midst of a project involving the uprooting of cement around our jacuzzi due to tree roots. The contractor we had originally hired for a relatively simple job found "problems," including outdated spa plumbing, that would increase our out-of-pocket cost from $2500 to upwards of $40,000. Concerned about the integrity of this individual, we reached out to Cornerstone Property Services to receive another bid. We spoke with Leeann, who scheduled a free estimate with Jeff, who was nice enough to add us onto his busy schedule the very next morning. Jeff's assessment was in great contrast to that of our original contractor. He concluded that our original contractor had recommended excessive and overpriced repairs. Jeff also advised us that this contractor's business practices (in terms of contract/change orders) were not in compliance with the rules of the contractor's board. Because Cornerstone subcontracts for swimming pool/jacuzzi repair, Jeff provided referrals to several different contractors specializing in swimming pool/jacuzzi remodels. Though we are still in the process of deciding who to hire, Jeff's wise counsel was instrumental in our decision to terminate our relationship with the original contractor we hired, and subsequently saved us thousands of dollars. Jeff went far above the call of duty in terms of the time he spent answering our questions and providing his expert opinion in regard to the issues we were experiencing. All the office staff, including Leeann, Crystal and Maria, were extremely polite, helpful, and efficient in all of our interactions with them. We will definitely call Cornerstone when we are interested in doing further remodeling work on our home. Clearly, this is a company that cares about their clients. Thanks again to Jeff and the entire Cornerstone Team. read more

I am in a deal with a Good Neighbor Next Door HUD Home. If you don't know that generally means the house needs TOTAL rehab.

Hands down the best contractor I have ever dealt with! Steve was absolutely amazing and such a pleasure to deal with. He sent his plumbers Ryan and Dennis to fix what another plumber destroyed in my house. They were professional, courteous, explained everything that they were repairing. Then Mark came out to fix the drywall and he did a fantastic job. Everyone at this company genuinely cares that the job is done right! I would recommend them to everyone! read more

The owner will not stop harassing me at my workplace. He has called my OFFICE numerous times, first apologizing and then threatening legal action when I refused to remove my Yelp review. They did not to seem to care so much about apologizing for their mishaps until I documented my experience with them on Yelp. Please understand that all our communications have been documented and my accounting of the facts are true. read more

If I could give 0 stars I would. Save yourself the trouble and don't use this place. I am not one to complain and hate that I am writing this review. I had a scheduled time slot of 3-5 today. It is now 6:30 and no one arrived. I called the office to see where he was(actually a little worried since it had been so long) and the office was closed. I left a message to have someone call me. A few minutes later I received a call from Steve who is apparently the owner of the company. He started by quickly asking me "what's up?" I said I'm waiting for a plumber who was suppose to be here by 5? He then cut me off told me to not yell? Which I wasn't I would be home either way? Cut me off several more times. I asked him if I could talk and he said " no " and hung up on me. Wow super unprofessional! Who knows about the workers but u would think they would call their appts if running over a hour and a half behind! Don't bother with this place !! Shame on u Steve!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

yes, 5 stars.. very unusual for me to give such a high rating, but Cornerstone never let me down! After seeing Steve Cederquist on HGTV's Flip or Flop show, I thought I would call and get an estimate knowing he would know what to do to "update" our home. I had no clue what to do but my husband and I knew it needed SOMETHING. We had a horrible experience with a contractor years ago and we were so hesitant on going thru this again.. well... it was FAR from what happened years ago.. Steve and his crew completely turned our home into a "showroom"... Every person who worked here, was honest, respectful, on time, and did a fantastic job. I have never imagined our house would be completed in such a short amount of time. And Steve was like having a personal Designer, he knew EXACTLY what was needed.. and he was absolutely right.... I will and have recommended Steve and his company to friends and family.. Thank you EVERYONE at Cornerstone for taking such good care of us and helping us turn our house into a home!! read more

Highly recommend this Co. They are always on time and get the job done! Eric at cornerstone property services came on time and did a great job! He was very professional and had a great attitude. Thanks to his knowledge and fast repair I was able to only take 1hr off work! read more

Recently our house got a plumbing leak that damaged our bathroom ceiling and garage. I was yelping to find a good general contractor. Luckily I found Cornerstone! I called in and the next day Steve (the owner) came out to assess the damage, he was polite and gave a fair estimate. He put my mind at ease saying it could be fixed within a week or two. There was small miscommunication with the technicians but Steve was very professional and set everything straight and sure enough him and his team got the job done in less than two weeks! Satisfied with the completed work! read more

One happy customer!!!! CPS did some remodel work for me in the past so when it came time to update my very small bathroom right before Christmas, I gave them a call. Crystal answered and was able to get me a very quick appointment especially at this time of year. CPS had some cabinets IN STOCK so there was no down time waiting for order to arrive. The workers( Kyle and either Carl or Earl...not sure) came and went over a weeks time (about 5 days from start to finish) getting the bathroom ready for a party I was hosting. Again....CPS came through! Thank you!!! read more

Cornerstone Property Services is truly fantastic. I was frustrated with other services not being straight forward, taking too long and overcharging. Then a friend of mine recommended Cornerstone Property Services, so I gave Steve a call. I set up an appointment for the following day and I have to say, Dennis was professional, friendly and fixed my plumbing problem without any issues. I love this company and will continue using them and definitely recommend them to my friends and family! 5 Stars for sure!!! read more

Professional and quick turn around. Had a gas leak at our unit. Called our property management which called them and within an hour they showed up at the place. They stuck around and did as much as they could within a day but they had to return the following day first thing in the morning. They even sent in their guys to start the job before the landlords approval to make sure the job gets done early. I recommend using their service. read more

I have to update my review. I am in ALL at the customer service by Crystal. And I mean that in a great way. On a Saturday, I had an issue with my shower, lucky for me Denise came. This guy gets the work done right, no questions asked. Respectful and honest working guy. Crystal had mentioned that she would call me back with a time frame. I felt bad because it was a Saturday, but she returned my call and told me that Denise would be coming at a certain time frame. I hope that I can provide the OUTSTANDING customer service to others in business the way she provides it for me. Hands down, she is the best of the best!!! I could take a few pointers from her as well!! read more

I met the owner, Steve Cederquist, through my now Ex-girlfriend. She had used him for her remodel and two of her friends were also using him currently. I was on the inside, or so I thought. Between my experience personally, as well as through her, I can tell you he is never on time (even after rescheduling and/or postponing) and does not return phone calls, texts or emails timely, if at all. Because of friends, I chose to ignore his other bad reviews online-Big Mistake!!! He was at my house 2 or 3 times, did his measuring, gave me his price estimates and we were attempting to schedule a start time since I had already picked out my specific granite and travertine. He assured me he could get me the same stuff I had picked, but cheaper, by using his stone buyer Ryan Musser. Eventually he told me to deal directly with Musser to save me time and money. The floor was first and they convinced me that the travertine I had already picked out was not good quality and had too much fill and shouldn't use it. Cederquist only saw one piece and Musser went to the store to check it out. Turns out that the place that sells it only sells retail so no spread for the middleman (I wonder if that influenced the decision!) Cederquist kept calling trying to schedule a start time for the project. I kept telling him that Musser had not found me the stone I wanted. Bad experience with Musser and two months later he eventually convinced me to buy something I was not happy with (I took his word for the quality). Took a few weeks to get delivered and while waiting, and after getting extra samples, I was convinced it was definitely not very good quality. Musser was not sympathetic so I called and emailed/texted Cederquist telling him I really needed him to come over before that next (delivery) week to look at the stone. He never showed up, called, emailed or texted until after the delivery about a week later. Now I was stuck and he was unresponsive so I fired him. He texted me back basically pleading with me to let him do the work and not to trust someone I didn't know. So I got stuck with two crates (out of six) of inferior tile that neither I nor the installers would even want to use. It was all low quality tile (exactly what they said they were saving me from) that was marked up drastically. I could not even complete my floor project even though there were still two crates sitting in my garage. Musser wouldn't stand behind it and said he could buy me more (at my expense) at an inflated price that he said was his cost. He lied, not knowing that I knew what he actually paid for it. When confronted with the invoice he basically told me to get lost and actually told me "Look, I don't do that many jobs so I need to make money where I can". I went back to Cederquist as the GC and laid it all out to him. Cederquist wanted nothing to do with anything, accepted no responsibility, and told me that Musser wasn't his guy and was just a "suggested resource". He then told me that he was not my contractor as I had never signed a contract. Remember, this was part of a group of friends and he kept calling me to schedule a start date on the project. He even called my GF to get her take but she was having an issue with him as well. I had suggested to both of them that I would be willing to give them the 2 crates in the garage that they could resell if they delivered one crate of good replacement stone to me. I said I would eat the difference. They both denied and refuted everything. In the end, I was overcharged for, and received, inferior quality tile ($11K+), which they bought way too much of, had to buy more tile just to complete the project, had to pay extra to my installers to deal with all of the sorting and extra work just to use what they could from the 6 crates. While this was still happening, my Ex had Cederquist do some kitchen work at her place. His guy broke 3 tiles in her kitchen and he wouldn't stand behind that either. He said she would have to pay to replace the whole floor if that's what she wanted. After complaining, and being friends, he then said he would supply the material of his choice (leftovers from another job I'm sure) and she would just have to pay labor. She still was not happy since his guy caused the damage to begin with. I'm not sure whatever happened with that situation but last I knew they still had not talked. FYI-she did not have a contract either. Her one friend that used him at the same time told me they were not happy and would not use him again. I guess he never even showed up at their job. In my experience and opinion, Cederquist uses dishonest/subpar subcontractors and is not even willing to stand behind their work as the GC. His moral compass is questionable as well. Looking at some of his other bad online reviews, it appears I was not alone. Deny everything seems to be his motto, assuming he ever gets back to you. Caveat emptor!!! read more

Had a bad experience with Cornerstone Property trying to get an estimate on some rehab work out in Temecula. After contacting them and sending out a work list, had great trouble getting them to respond and follow through. Each time I sent an email providing the work list or trying to schedule the on-site estimate I received no acknowledgement or response until I called the office to request some feedback. I even told them initially if they were too busy to accommodate me to just refer me to another local contractor. They said they could probably do the job quickly. After setting up an appointment directly with one of the project people to inspect my property, I never heard back two days after the visit was to take place. I emailed him again saying I assumed he had not visited the property as expected and was then told they normally schedule appointments thru an office system which no one had told me about. I told him this continual lack of communication is not the way to do business and had backed me into a corner by forcing me to seek another contractor at the last minute. I cannot recommend using them based on this performance. read more
