What Matt M. said. We were going through a hard time and had to cancel our appointment. They didn't seem to care showing up at our door anyway. My husband and I were extremely nice to them and allowed them to look around while being open to hearing their opinions. We continuously reminded them that we didn't have the time or money to do any of this work but they kept going on. I was seriously holding back my anger especially when they finally left 3 hours later with an attitude. I was going to let it go but it pisses me off just thinking about how much time they wasted and how they wouldn't leave. I don't want anyone else to go through this bs. Efficient Construction: Don't ever show up to our door again or I'll call the cops. read more

BEWARE OF THIS COMPANY! I don't usually write yelp reviews but the fact that this company was so slimy I felt the need to tell of our experience. One of their workers came to our door and said he noticed the stucco on our house was cracking and if we would like someone to come out and take look to give us an estimate. My wife and I have talked about fixing the stucco before so said sure why not, the worker seemed like a nice guy. After going online and seeing reviews about the company we decided to cancel the appointment, which was easy enough, until they decided to show up anyway. The guy insisted that since he was here might as well take a look around and that it would only take five minutes. Ok what harm could that do? It'll be quick right? He took a quick look around at the stucco of our house and told my wife that he should check underneath our house because there may may be water damage. When he emerged he told us he had taken some photos and asked if we wouldn't mind waiting for his coworker to come by so they could chat with us about his findings, and that it would only take a few minutes. What followed was a three hour presentation of how our house was basically on the verge of falling down and that they needed to fix these problems ASAP, and that the cost would be $30,000. They did everything they could to try and get us to sign a contract with them on the spot, talked about knocking some money off, how we could do this special financing deal "today only!", and they even tried to throw in fixing our fence? (We'd pay for labor but they had an extra fence from another job or some nonsense) Both of these used car salesman type dudes were visibly upset/disappointed when we kept telling them sorry and that we just do not have 30k to drop all of a sudden. The comical part of this whole situation is that I had mentioned multiple times to tweedle dee and tweedle dum that I am in real estate and that foundation issues are something that come up often during inspections. What I did not tell them is that quotes from reputable foundation companies that I see for this type of work are usually in the ballpark of $5,000-$10,000 not this ludicrous amount they were saying. This is not how an honest company does business. TLDR; Showed up even after cancelling appointment saying they would only be there for a few minutes and proceeded to go into a three hour scare tactics style presentation in the hopes we would sign a contract with them on the spot to do work on our house that we do not need for an exorbitant amount of money. I worry for people who do not know any better especially the elderly which is whom these people are clearly trying to scam. read more

It has been an amazing experience hiring Efficient Construction. Our initial contact was Jose who sold us on multiple small projects for our home. I really appreciate the project management crew for always communicating and accommodating our requests. The painting crew who showed up also were punctual, knew what we wanted, and completed project on time. I will definitely recommend Efficient Consgruction for high quality work and competitive pricing!! read more

As a small business owner I understand the importance of a 5 star review. Efficient Construction deserves 10 out of 5 stars for the performance of quality work. I had my roof and stucco redone and they were able to finish on time before the next rain storm. My house feels new and more like the home I've always wanted. AMAZING job and thanks to the company read more

Super rude guy door to door, not by his tone, but certainly by his actions. I have not one, but two signs posted for no solicating. Someone came to my door and decided to ring my doorbell twice anyways. When I finally answered on the ring, this guy informed me that he had indeed read my signs but still decided he wanted to pitch me on a new roof. I told him I was not interested and he STILL persisted to then give me the "in my expert opinion". Poor poor sales. You have showed me that you have no respect for me multiple times with actions and words. Why the hell would I give you money and believe you would work with me as a client and not just mansplain me? 1 start for leaving a flyer, again despite my signs, so I at least knew where to leave a review. read more

We signed our contract with Efficient Construction on 12/17/22 to rebuild our gate. We paid our deposit at this time for Efficient Construction to come out and do the work ASAP. Fast forward - we are now midway through February. We texted and called Efficient Construction repeatedly to see when they would be coming out to do the work. On 02/14/23, almost 2 months later, Efficient Construction finally deigned to communicate with us that they were not, in fact, going to be doing any work. Our $5000 gate re-build was too low value and not worth it to them. 2 months after they signed a contract with us. 2 months after they took our money. Initially, they had indicated that they would compensate us for the delay. They subsequently notified us that, since they have not cashed our check yet (something we do not have any control over on our end), they were not going to help us out at all. If our home project was not worth it to them, the least they could have done is promptly inform us so that we can go out and look for another contractor to do the work. They never bothered to reach out to let us know and we were subsequently delayed by 2 months because we put our trust in Efficient Construction. We thought signing a contract and paying them would result in services being rendered, but evidently not. The lack of professionalism here has been disappointing, to say the least. read more

On April 2, 2024 I wrote ... Wow, I cant believe these guys came by our house AGAIN today! OK, back in year 2022, Efficent Construction (EC) came by and pitched my mom. #1. AFTER A 3 HOUR SALES PITCH I let my mom sign the documents just to get EC out of the house, knowing I would advise her to cancel within 5 days! #2. EC gave my mom a 3 day to cancel form, but the law provides for 5 days for seniors. (See California Civil Code § 1689.20 (2021)). I then went to check out the EC website and noted they didn't have one. #3. So, I called up to ask why no website? Their "IT department" told me they needed a "BUY"? a new server?! Well, I've been a software engineer since year 1990, and in two of my last three companies I programmed internet transaction software. And yes, in one of those companies, they had a room full of servers running at 50 degrees in temperture, but those servers were doing thousands of transactions per second and needed to stay cool. Um, I'm sorry but you can buy a POS $500 laptop to serve as a server if all its going to do as spit out an html page once an minute or so, which is what any EC website is going to do. And if you don't want to do that, just sign up with GoDaddy.com and pay them $20 a month. So, either they didn't want to spend $20 a month, or didn't know they could do that. #4. The finance papers they presented, well, lets be nice and say they "misheard" my moms income, that's must be why the EC rep typed in a higher amount than what I heard my mom tell him. #5. Then I found out, from the cslb website, that the State Attorney General was moving against them! (See results later.) #6. Fast forward to year 2023, somebody had the nerve to leave a EC flyer on our porch again! #7. Today, I was informed by my mom that she was going to have a company come over tomorrow and look at some stuff, she showed my the flyer, to my horror, it was EC! Case Violation Disclosure License Number 1049149 Contractor Name EFFICIENT CONSTRUCTION Case # N 2021 295 Date 11/02/2023 Status CURRENTLY UNDER DISCIPLINARY ORDER 3 Violations CODE Business & Professions Code VIOLATION 7123 DESCRIPTION Conviction of a substantially related crime CODE Business & Professions Code VIOLATION 7109 DESCRIPTION Departure from trade standards, plans or specs CODE Business & Professions Code VIOLATION 7110 DESCRIPTION Violation of the building or other laws of the state CODE Business & Professions Code VIOLATION 7154 DESCRIPTION Employed non-registered salesperson Documents N2021-295-20221216-Accusation.pdf N2021-295-20220902-Order.pdf You can go up on cslb website and get the accusation and order pdf files and read them yourself. Interesting thing though, so after I typed this up I decided to call them and cancel. I spoke to a guy there who actually took responsibility for things of the past. And said all he can do is ask for another chance. I did like that, not enough to consider doing business with them, but that was the best answer he could give. Oh, EFFICIENT CONSTRUCTION has a website now!!!! Powered by GeekForceWeb. But alas, GeekForceWeb itself has in invalid internet security certificate, so my anti malware software tells me to avoid their website!!!!! AND, I couldn't find their CSLB license number anywhere on their website. But now , EFFIECIENT CONSTRUCTION please do the following... 1. STOP trying to shave 2 days off seniors 5 day right to cancel. 2. STOP making "mistakes" presenting the finace forms for people to sign, especially seniors.. 3. STOP with the whole, "let me call my boss and see if he can put you on our 'surplus commercial order'" routine. All you door to door companies use that same line. 4. STOP posting fake reviews. Although you are posting less fake reviews than you used to, at least you got smarter and spaced them out a little bit to avoid the Yelp algorithmn. EC you guys used to have 5 reviews of 5 stars posted on the same day, by users who had no other reviews of anything on Yelp at all. Easy to spot those fakes! 5. STOP knocking on our door! Don't call us, we'll call you. On May 8, 2024, EC showed up once again! To his credit, the EC rep didn't knock on the door this time, he solicited from the sidewalk. I'm going to have to find a way to keep my mom in the house, or at least in the back yard. I checked the cslb website, EC is still under UNDER DISCIPLINARY ORDER 3. I assume the reason they don't list their website here on Yelp or their business cards is because the website does not show their license number. I assume that as long as they don't show the website on any documents they give to the public, they can claim the website is still "internal" or "not finished" and not being used for advertising. At this point, if you read this review on Yelp and you do business with this company, all I can say is "you were warned". read more

Our roof leaked with the first rains this year, our roof was done in August of 2020. We have contacted Efficient Construction they tell us they will come down and don't show up. Now we have damage in our kitchen ceiling I paid 28,000.00 for a roof that leaks. read more

Anthony noticed tarps on my roof (leaking) and asked if someone could stop by and give an estimate to patch or replace the roof. We agreed on time and date and Mike Kim showed up on time. Mike was knowledgeable and professional. Provided detailed bid and explanation of job and his role in project. Very comfortable in process. Haven't made decision of what we are going to do yet but would be very comfortable to have Mike manage this project. read more

I was very skeptical at first, but after speaking with Mike Kim, I decided to take the plunge. He convinced us both by the demonstration & he himself as a person. The crew was always on time & we aways felt prioritized. Everything happened just as Mike described. read more

Hello, Thank you for your response. We still have a problem that was not resolved. We've been calling and no one help us. The outlet in our backyard was busted. One of your employee use the outlet and never said anything until I was to put a charismas lights. We need someone from your company to check the busted outlet. This happened when you fix the garage roof. Sincerely, Ruby And Rebecca read more

The reps are good talkers but completing a good job is disappointing. I had been contacting them since mid November 2024 to fix a problem with a shower they did but until now nobody showed up. The shower is still not usable. read more

Honestly they did not do any work on my home. This review is based solely on their high pressure sales tactics. My mother and I live together and I work from the home. She is elderly and there was a knock at the door and we had a man stating his company "is doing roofing work in the neighborhood so my boss has me reaching out to the neighbors" as an initial sales pitch. I step in, but at this point my mom is already confirming that they can come out for an estimate. I do inform him a have a friend in the roofing business and we would go with him if anybody. I concede this guy is just doing his job whatever they can come. The next day we have a team of 3 men show up at the house to inspect and give us a pitch. I sat down with them and listened and asked questions. They used terms like this is an emergency roofing situation and we were given a ridiculous price. However, if we sign up right now they would give us a discount, but if they leave the number is off the table. These people even made fake phone calls to their boss to get us additional "discounts". After all thier discounts they were going to charge us 30K for 28 squares. Several years ago I worked for a roofing contractor and have a good friend that owns a roofing company so I have a few resources and a bit of knowledge . I called Joe told him the price quoted and the number of squares. He google earthed my home and came back at 17K. This was a straight price and not a friend discount. This company is not trust worthy and I think they prey on the elderly, They seemed to be throwing terms around that make no real business sense, but sound professional and plausible. I have a business degree and they are full of shit. read more

Last month Mike Kim came out to talk to my 84 year old grandmother about replacing her roof. After assessing the damage, Mike did a full presentation about what the roof repair would entail including showing samples of the materials used and showing videos of past jobs to walk through each part of the process. After interviewing several other roofers we decided to go with Efficient and I'm glad we did! The work was completed quickly and there was plenty of communication between us and Mike, Aaron, and George. We felt like we were in good hands. Our new roof is beautiful and our new gutters look amazing (all the neighbors were asking questions about it afterward!). They also worked hard with the city of Compton to get an inspector out to review and clear the work. Every step of the process was smooth and all of our questions were answered in a timely way. I will definitely work with them again for future home repairs! read more

PLEASE BEWARE THIS COMPANY AND THIER WORKERS. They pray on senior individuals and try to pressure them to sign loans!!! SCAMMERS and DISHONEST.

Efficient Construction negotiated with me for a price to fit my budget. Alvin and Dylan were very professional in their presentation of the companies' use of Owens Corning product. Ivan and his team started my roof as scheduled and completed it as projected. They made sure the whole area was clean before leaving each day. Ivan went above and beyond to clear some tree branches resting on the garage roof. Ivan did an excellent new roof installation. In my opinion, the character of this company is trustworthy. Customer satisfaction is a high priority. Shout out to everyone, Caesar, Thomas, Marcos and Jovan- Thank you. Keep up the excellent work. read more

Small update and noting I would give this company negative stars if I could! I recently found out they have several complaints filed in CSLB, all back to back from March-May 2022 including one complaint where they were issued a letter of admonishment. If you want to read up on the complaints here's the links (https://www.cslb.ca.gov/OnlineServices/CheckLicenseII/ComplaintDisclosure.aspx?LicType=LIC&LicNum=1049149) So glad I dodged a bullet! read more

This is regarding the Bellflower location. What started as an amazing experience has turned into a disaster. My husband and I chose this company specifically for the warranty and what we thought was a great company. Project Managers, David Apodaca and Christian Payan promised us the best service yet they never checked in. Our Production Manager, Michael Bello wasn't the best communicator from the start but I overlooked it and remained positive. First red flag was they ordered the wrong material which extended the construction another 5 days, but like I mentioned we remained positive. Then one of their workers dropped a pipe into our plumbing vent on our roof. $1075.06 to fix everything and they promised to cover the costs. Everything was a rushed mess. 1 month later and nothing but the run around and false information. Michael Bello couldn't return my text messages but he has time to view my TikTok account, (profile views don't lie) Not to mention we never received our warranty. The only helpful person is Dolce at the Gardena office, I will continue to give these truthful reviews every day of this crook of a company until someone has the decency to return my calls. DO NOT use this company!!!!! read more

We are absolutely thrilled with the work that Efficient Construction did to give us our dream kitchen! Thomas was friendly and communicated well through every step of the process of the remodel.

We could not more highly recommend Efficient Construction and will definitely work with them for any future home Construction projects! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! read more

Our house needed some major curb appeal... and now we absolutely love how the 'California Front' came out !!

And Orlando and his little crew ( his second crew) got it all done with great time !

Thank you all for your hard work ! read more

My sister had been putting off getting her roof repaired for a few years and almost waited too long So we got in touch with Efficient Construction after doing a little research on local roofing companies and l must admit it was a good choice. They are not the cheapest or the most expensive but I would place them near the top in product quality, workmanship and making the whole process seamless. The project manager Rome Juarez was there through every step to answer any questions or concerns. Their work crews were there on time every morning and were very professional and efficient. The whole job was completed on schedule and she has a beautiful new roof with a 50 year guarantee! So I would recommend Efficient Construction for any roofing needs. read more

I can't say enough great things about the service at Efficient Construction. In the past, I've been SO frustrated with contractors and how they treated me as a female with a home. I mostly worked with Joseph, who is a phenomenal communicator with a great attitude. I also worked with Jovan and Justin who were also very professional, friendly, and communicative. I had my house and gates repainted, and they replaced and painted the fascia board around the whole house (there was bad termite damage, I'd had the house tented a couple of years ago). To be perfectly honest, I spent more than I planned to on this project - HOWEVER - I really can see the difference in this paint. It almost feels like a baked-on ceramic coating. It's thicker than normal, and I don't know how better to explain it than thar it really clings to the metal (all the gating/fencing around my house). Plus, the paint has a "lifetime" guarantee (for the while time I live in the house), which could end up being a great savings over time. So, yes, I spent more than I expected to, but I'm so happy every time I come home to my beautifully painted house. Hands down 5 stars, I highly recommend their service and their craftsmanship. They're very thorough in explaining everything about the company, insurance, and what to expect, and they stayed true to everything they said. I would definitely work with them again. read more

Efficient Construction is part of my home remodeling life! I had their specialist come provide me a literally no hassle estimate and inspection on my property. It is an older house and needed much work done. The specialist provided me a very competitive price on my roof and windows and now that they are done I am having them come over to give me another quote on my stucco and central heating and air system. I've had other companies charge me an arm and a leg and this company treated me like family. Thank you and I will be looking forward to my house being upgraded soon. To anyone looking for home remodeling, I highly advise this professional company. read more

My neighbor used this contractor to replace their roof. Honestly, I liked the way it looked so I asked my neighbor for their number. I got the contact for Eppie, he was a super red flag so idk why I continued. We have received 2 quotes on the replacement of our roof and I wanted to get one more quote for good measure. Eppie seemed nice on the phone, when I scheduled the appt he was like, are you the owner or co-owner? Long story short, he was so adamant about my husband being at the appt bc he would be so uncomfortable without my husband there. In hindsight, he wanted both parties to be there at the assessment so it would be easier to scam us. Regardless, Eppie was not the one who came and did the assessment, it was Vincent. Vincent was very thorough and gave a great explanation/presentation. My low star review is because of how pushy he was. I find it ironic that Vincent stated that some roofers can be very aggressive and pushy and he was EXACTLY that. The roof they quoted us cost 45k. Conveniently, they gave us a 15% referral fee discount and 10% first time buyer discount. Wow, so nice. The brand they use is good, but so crazy to think that a roof would cost that much without solar etc. Anyways, if Vincent wasn't so damn pushy and respected my wishes to give me 2 days to think about it, we probably would have purchased their ridiculously priced roof. read more

In 2020, we had efficient construction install an HVAC system in our home. The first problem after installation the unit begins leaking inside the home. On two other occasions, we had them come out because the unit was not working with the thermostat. They came out to repair and install a new thermostat. Fast forward, we tried turning on the unit this summer, and it wasn't working again. We called American Home Shield to come to repair the unit. After two different repair companies coming out all say they same thing, there were a lot short cuts made in the installation, 50 amps fuse were installed in the unit, but only 30 Amp breaker were in the box. The unit was blowing the breakers because the Ampage was low. They jimmy-rige the wire the switch. This created a problem an even greater problem. In addition, all of that, I found out they used the existing intake duct, which has the unit operating and 60% capacity. Which inpact the air flow from the duct. have been calling them for two days, and all I get is :we are trying to find find someone to come out."Why did you take so long to call us?" Still, no one is returning calls. No one is responding. Instead of being called Efficient, the need to rename to the company Short Cut Construction. These are the names of the staff members who do a lot talking but do provide any follow through Jovan, Mike, Cesar, Thomas. read more

They came out to give me a quote and gave me a 3,500 dollar price for a quote that 2 other companies (licensed and bonded) quote roughly 1100.

When I say ten times, that includes four times they just totally failed to show up or call. They apologize a lot but will never put anything in writing. TEN TIMES. read more

When they have people going to your door that you don't know and you're not home but when you get home and see your package that was left at the door is missing and you see on the ring camera this company having a shirt on took it and I've been calling to talk to them and last thing one of them said after lying about their name " not my problem" but I already have police report in my lawyer working on this case there's more to this than just construction...

WORSE company I EVER hired. Anthony came into my home and overcharged me for a retrofitting. He signed me up through Goodleap (HORRIBLE FINANCE COMPANY) which keeps hitting my credit ever month and destroying my score. Even though the first payment isn't due for 16 months, it accruing interest the entire 16 months. I signed the contract for one balance and when I contacted Goodleap for the pay off balance, efficient construction added additional fees after I signed the contract. If you're considering this company.....RUNNNNNNN!!! Management for Efficient construction and Goodleap are working together so they will not help you fix a situation but they will make it worse. Horrible attitudes and very dismissive! read more

I really wish I could give a zero. This company took thousands of dollars from an 80+ year old woman under the guise of 'doing work'. The two bedrooms that were done both have issues; the ceiling is falling apart. The tiles they used are falling down. I wish I could post a photo. A friend has had to staple the tile back up; some we have just left down. They have been reported to the Better Business Bureau. Wondering if the positive reviews have been purchased? If you are a homeowner looking to improve the value and look of your home, consider another (ANY OTHER) company. This one is shady. read more

More like INEFFICIENT!!!!!! I requested that the owner of the company come out to see the type of work that's being done by his company after having representatives come out that were of NO help. Mr. Reilly comes out to our home says he has come to help and finally get it done and out of our hair but this guy had a chip on his shoulder once we started explaining our frustrations he had the audacity to say to us that we had buyer's remorse, I was floored.....
