Carlos and his team did an incredible job on my space! They did a commercial remodel for me at my…read morebusiness, and I can't say enough great things. They remodeled my floors, demo'd some walls, did a full paint job, hardwired & installed new lighting, built new walls with custom shelving inside the walls, created arched doorways, installed wallpaper on the ceilings, built & tiled a custom desk, and so much more. See photos attached! They were easy to work with and got the job done in a reasonable amount of time, considering all the hurdles we had to jump. My landlord wouldn't let us demo the floors, so Carlos came up with a creative solution of laying new flooring on top of the old so we didn't have to demo. Every obstacle that came up, the guys were able to work around it and still do all the things I wanted to do with the space. Carlos made great suggestions along the way and I felt confident trusting his judgement and took his recommendations on which flooring would look best, or paint colors, materials etc etc. I highly recommend using Mendi Custom Builders if you need any remodeling work done. I am so grateful, Carlos and his team really brought my vision to life!

I am very embarrassed that I have to write this review which could have been prevented if I did…read moremore work screening a contractor. Let me explain. I researched contractors on Yelp and found one that I wanted to hire. I clicked the button to request a consultation and Carlos called me right away. He had good sales skills and offered to come to look at my bathroom remodel project the same day. It turns out that when I submitted a request for a consultation it went to many businesses, not only the one that I was interested in. I finally realized that this was a different business. I looked at William S' review and decided to give them a chance. The business started in January 2022, yet the review that I read stated that they had two bathrooms, a gigantic kitchen, a brand new ADU unit, and 7 televisions in the course of the 3 months since the contractors license was obtained. I later found out that William S is a Mendi Builders employee and that it is a fake review. But I took the bait. I was desperate to get the bathrooms working and planned to be out of town for a week. Despite the vague and expensive proposal Carlos created, I gave him money to begin our project because of his availability and promise to work while I was out of town. In retrospect this was such a bad idea. The very first day that the team came to demo the home they forgot to cap the water underneath the vanity. They left water dripping on a Friday night and had no plans to return until Monday. Fortunately, my son came home and heard the dripping and stopped the leak and bailed out the bathroom. From that day forward every single thing that they touched was a disaster. Broken Tile: I had some special tile installed by an old friend who is no longer working that I asked him to protect. He destroyed that tile and did not alert me or attempt to repair it, instead he tried to conceal it. Plumbing: He changed a plumbing valve and left a huge glob of some sort of wax inside the pipe which was only discovered by the plumber that I had to hire to redo all of Carlos' work. In addition, they were so sloppy that they punched a hole in the wall behind the shower and into my family room. Mess Containment: Construction is always messy and Carlos promised to use plastic sheeting to contain the mess when doing drywall work. Instead of protecting my home, his team took a huge fan out of my garage and blew the construction debris into my family room and garage. This bathroom contained an exterior wall and Mendi employees started installing the drywall without adding insulation to the wall. In addition the workers made no attempt whatsoever to clean up any of their messes and left debris on my roof, throughout my home and garage, and even threw their drink containers in my garden. Their employee drove over a retaining wall and left it down in my driveway. Safety: Mendi removed two toilets there was no attempt to seal off the septic system and the home reeked of sewage. Sewage gasses are not only disgusting, they are dangerous. Mendi switched out a bedroom fan and did not clean up any of the debris. They let a bowl full of screws fall 8 feet down onto the new flooring in my son's room, which he stepped on. They also turned off all circuit breakers in the home and failed to turn all of them back on, so when I returned from my trip there was only one functioning toilet in the home, but the bathroom had no electricity for two days. When I fired Mendi I incurred many expenses and it cost me thousands of dollars to repair the damage they caused. It is hard for me to believe that Mendi was able to obtain a contractor's license. The amateur staff was unsupervised and clearly did not follow best practices of the trade. This construction company is dishonest and does shoddy work with no concern for their work product or customers.protecting my home,

This will be such a positive review that I want to clarify: I am not associated with JVS Premier…read morePainting Inc., and I was not offered a discount or incentive in exchange for leaving a positive review. Jose at JVS Premier Painting Inc. was recommended to me by the team that replaced our roof. We had a good experience with that roofing team, so I took the recommendation seriously and called Jose. From the first call, Jose was friendly, communicative, and knowledgeable. He provided a quick, no-pressure estimate for the project. As we walked around the house, Jose pointed out certain items and asked for my feedback. He was willing to provide his own advice or options as we went along. Once the project began, Jose remained communicative, and he + his team were always on time and worked full days. We were up against an insane heat wave during this project, and despite the 100+ degree temperatures, this team didn't cut corners or rush. In fact, they were far more thorough than my wife and I expected them to be. The final results truly blew us away. The more we walk around the house, the more we point things out to each other like, "Oh look -- they even painted/fixed THIS." We have a 1950s home that has needed a lot of work. In the last few years, I've had to hire a roofing team, a plumbing team, an electrical team, etc. Of all the teams I have hired, I can say confidently that I have had the best experience with JVS Premier Painting Inc. -- I will be recommending them to anyone who asks. If you're poking around reviews right now and looking for a team you can trust to do things right, and even think about things you haven't thought about/don't understand re: house painting, this is your team. It's a great feeling to put money into a house project and, at the end, say, "Man, I'm REALLY glad I chose that team for this project." You won't be disappointed.

The attention to detail was impeccable, and the quality of work is outstanding. They were professional, communicative, and kept the job site clean throughout the entire process.

So when it came time do do my own home (it was just fully renovated), I did not have the time to paint the entire interior (as my full-time job takes me to the Middle East about 50% of the time). So I had to find someone who would do as well or better than I would - did not think this was possible. I phone-interviewed about half a dozen painting companies and narrowed the search down to 3 whom I in-person interviewed. No one even came close to Alberto and the AMK team. When I told Alberto that "I am a hobbyist painter and I would be very critical of his work", he simply smiled and said that he looked forward to the challenge. Every day now I look through my entire renovated home and my favorite thing to see is the incredible detailed and literally perfect paint job that AMK did. Walls, closets, doors, trim, ceilings, they do it all and they do it better than anyone else. These guys take caring for your home seriously, they value what you value and it shows. Don't regret choosing a 2nd tier painter, it's not worth it. Call Alberto and give him and team the opportunity to prove me right. Thank you for taking the time to read this, you won't be sorry if you make the call to AMK. Russ

I ended up finding three contractors that all looked excellent from those reviews and called each for a bid. One said he was familiar with the model and didn't need to come out to quote it. I asked him to do so because there were a couple of repairs that we wanted done at the same time. He asked us to send pictures because he was too busy. I scratched him off the list. The next said he couldn't come out for two or three weeks and that he could give me a call. I passed. I called Straitline Painting next and was pleasantly surprised when someone actually answered the phone. I spoke with Cody, the president of the company and he told me he was very interested in quoting the job and wanted to know if it would be okay if he came out the next morning. We met and he walked the house with us. He was on time and as we walked through the house pointing out some of the areas that needed some extra attention he was very engaged and seemed genuinely interested in giving us the best advice he's could after many years in the industry. He gave us a professionally prepared detailed and fair bid within 2 days and we gave him the job . He even helped us finalize the paint colorto take into account the way the sunlight comes into the home and took the time to show us some of the differences room to room that paint color selection can make. (We ultimately selected a color based on his input.) He and his painter Jerome took a little less than a week to finish the job but I could tell from the beginning that they were pros. Rosin paper down all around and everything masked to prevent any over spray or damage to our property. They spent a good amount of time on that but it clearly paid off. The house was cleaner when they left then when they started. I'm attaching a handful of photos of the finished product but I will tell you we could not be happier with the work that was done or with the interaction that we had with Cody - very responsive and pleasant to deal with there is no doubt in my mind that his very first priority is to make sure that his customers are completely satisfied with the work his company has done for them. We will absolutely call him first the next time we have another painting or drywall patch/repair job to be done. Thank you Cody for the good work and your input in making this job a success. It was a pleasure doing business with you.
