Mauri came out the next day to assess the job which was great considering it was a rainy week and we had a leak. He gave us an estimate that same day and they were able to permit and do the job within 2 weeks. He is super responsive and dependable. His team showed up to work when they said they would. Seemed like a very hardworking crew. At the end of the job, there were some areas that needed attention but once I pointed them out, Mauri had no problem coming back to fix them. The only other complaint I have is that their clean up wasn't always the best. Something else worth mentioning is that he came in significantly cheaper than all of the other contractors bidding on the job. So really, I don't have many complaints considering his price was that good and they did a good job

We used Mizen for a fairly full remodel and were incredibly happy with the results and overall…read moreexperience. For context on the scope of work, we moved our kitchen, removed a bathroom, added a bathroom, replaced doors, added skylights, and redid almost all of the electrical and plumbing in a house that was originally built in 1908 and hadn't been updated since the 70s. They went down to the studs on half the house and we have basically a new house coming out of it. We worked with Mark and Ciaran and the project took 6 months. We'd highly recommend working with Mizen and we'd use them again in a heartbeat. We feel like they delivered an excellent product, were highly communicative, stayed on budget, and we'll definitely be using them again for any future work. So the short of it is that Mizen was fantastic but below are a few more thoughts on specific areas.  Work quality - Mark and Ciaran are craftsmen and they have a strong attention to detail. We felt like they were thoughtful throughout the entire process. It was clear they were very focused on delivering an excellent project rather than optimizing for what was easier or faster for them. They sweat the details. There were also areas that we didn't know to ask for but they pushed on. As an example, they laid the tile in our kitchen such that the midline of the tile hit the center of our oven perfectly. That wasn't something we asked for, it wasn't in the architects plans, and I'm sure it required extra work, but they did it and it's one of the subtle details I most appreciate about the kitchen.  Budget  - My wife and I were quite focused on costs for our project. We found Mizen very reasonably priced and responsive to our budget. They were only slightly higher than some of the other options we considered but we felt like their work quality would be better. We also thought their cost estimate was more thoughtful and therefore less likely to be wildly over budget relative to the alternatives. We did end up going slightly over our original budget but for two reasons that were outside of Mizen's control. The first was around some unforeseen structural issues that they discovered upon opening the walls. We have an old house and anticipated some changes like this. It came out to ~2% of our overall budget and we ended up very glad that they addressed these underlying issues. The second area where we went over our original budget was for things we decided to add mid-construction. We ended up replacing some doors and making a few minor cosmetic changes while we were doing the other work. Again, we're very glad we did it and don't regret the increase. For all the change orders we added, we never felt like Mizen was pressuring us or doing it just to drive up the bill. We felt like they had our budget and overall best interest in mind throughout.  Timing - The project ended up going over our original target by 3 weeks. On a 6 month project that happened in the middle of the tariff blow up, we felt like it was a pretty great outcome. We feel like they made a big push at the end to get us back in the house ahead of a hard deadline we had.  Other - We felt like the Mizen team was also great about dealing with our neighbors. There were a few areas where they want above and beyond what the structural engineer recommended and didn't charge us for it. I've already recommended Mizen to multiple friends. They're fantastic and we'd love to work with them again.

Ciaran and Mark's team has helped me complete two projects in the last few years. One was a…read morecomplete rebuild of a Victoria home in SF; the other is a remodel in East Bay. We are very satisfied with both projects. In fact, my neighbors on the same block have selected them for similar projects right after ours. Here are the 3 key areas we have chosen them twice and will do so in the future. 1). High quality with reasonable price - Mark can solve all technical problems while Ciaran is very detail-oriented. They make sure their employees and subcontractors deliver high-quality finishes from the alignment of the tiles to the cut of the wood trims and beautiful paint job. They do it with a reasonable price discussed before signing the contract. 2). Excellent time management and communication - a rough project timeline is given during the signing of the contract. Spencer manages the project timeline well and keeps us informed about the schedule. In addition, if we ever have questions, he always answers within a day via text, call, or email. Great customer service! 3). A sense of respect and high level of integrity - when Mizen decides to take on a project, the whole team treats the project as though it is their property. They clean up at the end of the day, are respectful of the surrounding neighbors, and protect existing appliances or furnishing. You don't need to worry about neighbor complaints.

A complete gut remodel interior & exterior started in November 2024. The quality of craftsmanship and attention to detail throughout the project were exceptional--especially their tile & slab work, which really stood out. The finished spaces reflect the level of precision and care expected from a top-tier contractor. Like most large, complex renovations, this project came with its share of challenges and unforeseen structural discoveries. Kasas worked collaboratively to problem-solve and adapt as the project evolved, often stepping in to help fill the gap where our original architect was no longer involved. Their team maintained professionalism and a strong commitment to achieving a beautiful end result. As a client with a high attention to detail and a strong opinion in design, I appreciated how the team welcomed my input and worked with their subcontractors to realize the vision. They coordinated well with local inspectors to meet all regulations while still honoring the aesthetic direction I provided. While the overall timeline extended beyond the initial plan, the outcome demonstrates quality workmanship. Budget adjustments were consistent with what's typical for projects of this scale and complexity. In the end, Kasas Builders delivered a stunning, high-quality renovation. I often get compliments from visitors & requests about materials that I selected for the project. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a contractor capable of executing high-end work with integrity and craftsmanship.

Rod and crew are very professional and communicates with us throughout the whole process. They dealt with the permits and work needed to be done. There was no need for us to deal with the city because Pinnacle Construction did all the communication. They did a great job and is a very dependable company.

Rod and the Pinnacle team completed a large (for us) project that included extending the foundation…read moreof our house to add new living space, adding a roof deck space, building out a custom home gym in the new space, and refreshing the front and back facade of the entire house. Notably, the extension was built slightly below ground to provide for height clearance according to code, driving additional complexity in both the construction and navigating the inspections process. Rod knew all the SF city code questions that we would face from this complexity and we sailed through nearly every inspection along the way. We couldn't be happier with the final product, both visually and structurally. As the construction was happening, we could see the attention to detail and the rock-solid approach to connecting the new and old framing and the new framing to the concrete foundation. Rod was easy to work with and accommodated our scheduling limitations and priorities throughout the project. He was on-site frequently and showed passion for making sure we were happy and that everything was done right. He also showed great creativity in working around constraints and settling some of the decisions that weren't fully accounted for in our original architectural design. The crew was multi-talented and versatile, from prepping the foundation, to building the framing, painting the exterior and installing our gym fixtures. They also partnered well with our other service providers, taking direction from an exterior designer that created our color scheme and selected other finishes, and accommodating a window craftsman we had hired to match an original home feature. Pinnacle responded well to the inevitable surprises typical of large projects. Early on, we had to change direction on a key assumption: that our existing push-out would remain as-is with no structural changes and no updates to the interior. Instead, it quickly became obvious that the structure would need to be jacked up and leveled to allow the rest of the project to proceed. The jacking process had follow-on effects on our existing drywall and door frames, requiring interior remediation and refinishing. Pinnacle very fairly shared the costs of this unexpected change, given that it reflected both a scoping assumption gone wrong and the structural reality of our old house. So, while we did pay a little extra for the change, it could easily have been much worse with a more cutthroat general contractor. It was the right decision and made for a much more stable and visually appealing finished project. We would whole-heartedly recommend Pinnacle for your residential construction in San Francisco.

The bigger their project, the worse their experience. Amirite? I'm here to tell you, we are the unicorn that actually loved our contractor. We did a major remodel, addition and ADU project with Hubert / Plus One Construction. Which turned out more complicated than a clean tear-down and re-build. I shudder to imagine how it would have gone without Plus One. Hubert was a true partner. Someone we could trust had our best interests through all the surprises that inevitably pops up on a large project. We decided to go into this project without a designer. As it turned out, we were a bit in over our heads. But Hubert takes the time to outline all the options, pros and cons. Way more specific, practical and actionable compared to the dozens of reddit comments you might rabbit hole into when you're posing as a designer. Plus One is not the cheapest per se. We would know because we vetted and received proposals from over 10 contractors. And while I'm usually unreasonably cheap, we just got the right vibes from Hubert. And the vibes were correct. He doesn't ridiculously mark up the work that goes beyond scope. I am a sticker for not getting ripped off, it's almost a psychological hangup. And I never felt Hubert was pulling a fast one. In fact, he goes out his way to go the extra mile, even on things that should have been our responsibility. Even after the "end" of our scope of work, he had his guys come back several times to make sure everything was right. This alone might make him the best value in the long run, even if his starting proposal is not the cheapest. Hubert is pro-active i resolcing issues that might arise with an over-zealous city planning department. According to our neighbors, we live in such a city; but I wouldn't know, mostly thanks to Hubert. He knew our city's codes and how to work with them. In fact, he was offered a job by our city's planning department, they liked him so much. I suspect we got a friendly ref's whistle, so to speak, because our city planners just straight up liked Hubert. I write this after just completing a year+ long project with Hubert and his guys. And I'm not going to lie, we're a bit sad that they will not be in our lives anymore. Ask yourself, have you ever heard anyone say that about their contractor? We were lucky... but you can be too! Hire them and thank me later! (By the way, he did not ask me to write this. I felt compelled. The least I can do to return to return the favor. He did not build it; he made it happen.)

The work was structured in about 6 phases with 10% or 20% payments at the completion of each.

They started and finished right on schedule, stayed well within the quoted budget with zero surprise charges, and kept the job site impressively clean--with good dust control and daily cleanup. Slavic was highly knowledgeable and patiently answered every question we had. He handled all the construction materials while we supplied the finishes, and everything integrated seamlessly. His crew reinforced the structure before drywall went up, and we were able to witness every step. They sanded the drywall perfectly smooth before painting, with edges blending flawlessly. Attention to detail was outstanding--even the power outlet screws are aligned uniformly in the same direction! Beyond the main scope, he quickly fixed several small unrelated issues around the house (like a few doors that wouldn't shut properly, some power outlets/breakers, and a sagging fence) without any extra fuss or added costs. The finished bathrooms look amazing--top-notch workmanship with no visible seams, sloppy edges, or shortcuts. Communication was excellent throughout; Slavic updated us regularly and was always easy to reach. I would definitely hire AXA again and highly recommend them to anyone in the Bay Area looking for reliable, professional, and detail-oriented remodel work. 5/5 stars!

That turned into a complicated job because of the existing and new underground pipes and structures, but he handled it well and kept things moving. The team also did a great job dealing with the different Daly City inspections. I especially appreciated that Victor was not afraid to ask questions or challenge comments when something seemed unclear, while still keeping the project on track and looking out for the owner's perspective. Throughout the construction, the crew was patient, reliable, and punctual. We could hear our garage door open at 8 a.m. every morning and knew they were there and ready to work! Thank you again!
