The quote appeared reasonable and due to the Covid-19 pandemic outside work was the company's preference. To our surprise work started two weeks earlier than originally stated. The existing deck was removed in one day and trucked away. Some structural damage to the area beneath the original ledger board was identified and approval was given for the additional work. Structural repairs and construction of the new deck progressed smoothly over the course of two weeks. The crew was professional and a pleasure to have in our backyard during construction. We are very pleased with our new deck (including a complimentary addition of a bird house on the top of a deck post).

I received a recommendation to use Stan to redo my backstairs and landing with composite and…read moremaintenance free materials. Stan came over, saw my situation and right away knew exactly what I want. He saw that it was very narrow and said he can make it a little wider. While he was there, I mentioned that I want to have my foundation wall finished with stucco. He told me he has a guy who can do that too. Well, I got a couple of other quotes from others and I knew after that Stan was the right guy for the job. His numbers are very reasonable and I can tell he knew what he was doing. Stan has a great crew who showed up early and worked professionally. Good guys! The stairs, landing and the masonry work came out perfect!

Centuries old home with all the quirks that come with it and they handled the circumstances well. New floor, new stairs, new ceiling (that had to be changed so that people over 6 feet tall could actually use the stairs without ducking!) and new light fixtures, all helped to really transform the first experience people have entering our home. Stan was highly communicative throughout the whole process, with daily updates and always conferring on what work would need to be done and when. A great experience and would definitely recommend!

I cannot speak more highly of Mr. Eric Zhang and his team for a bathroom renovation. I would rank…read morethem more than 5 Stars if I could. Quite simply, they are the best. They gut renovated both of our bathrooms, which was no easy task considering the overall age of our house, size of our bathroom, and required customization. They are incredibly hard working and always checked with us about our needs during the construction period. We feel very fortunate that we hired them. The quality of work in our bathrooms is top notch. Their ability to proceed with care, efficiency, problem-solve, communicate, and their attention to detail is outstanding. We feel like we had so many tall requests for this project and they delivered on all of them.

The estimate came way below the other 2 we got. We didn't go with them because if price.... but the initial inspection. The crew of 5 guys were amazing. They arrived at 8 and got right to work after setting up. No radios, no one smoking and no breaks till 12 noon. An hour tonthe minute they were back to work. We had an issue with wood roof members and I decided to re apply the entire roof with new wood. We weren't taken advantage of and still came below the other estimates. Clean up at 6 each night WS done in a manner you'd never really know they were there. When we needed the additional wood it arrived in time for the install. Job supervisor dropped the job twice each day. I would highly recommend Better Built for your home repairs and renovations
