Brett and Frame2Finish team transformed my house and turned ideas into reality. For me that meant updated, reconfigured master bathroom and guest bathroom, painting, tiling floors, showers and backsplashes, adding ceiling lights, renovating the fireplace, and adding a beautiful glass railing. The Frame2Finish team, Brett, Alex, Victor are trustworthy and experienced, they know how to work with an HOA, how to scope the work needed so that there were no surprises later on (and no surprise change orders), they know how to choose skilled contractors for plumbing, electrical, etc. that are efficient and effective (and most had worked with them before). The Frame2Finish team know that little details matter. They helped me identify what was most important. They were transparent with pricing. When there was a change, they communicated what needed to be done and if there were additional charges. They were clear in what I needed to provide. They were helpful in answering questions or educating me in new areas. I am extremely happy with the outcome of the project and I highly recommend them. read more

Brett and his full-time team built our house all the way from tearing down our old house to digging out a basement to putting the final touches on our gorgeous Palisades home. His team is amazing and highly knowledgeable and I actually miss them. His subcontractors are top of the line. I would build my next home with them again, no contest. PS -- a bit suspicious that the unfavorable reviews only have initials, don't you think? read more

I could not have asked for better contractors than Frame2Finish! I've heard horror stories about remodel projects, so I interviewed widely before settling on them. The whole team--Brett, Alex, Michelle, Cindy and all the subcontractors--made it truly a pleasure to remodel our home. They guided me through every step of the process, answered Saturday night calls, and honestly became friends by the end. I have already recommended them to others who are currently using them for their own projects. They deal with you straight, attend to the details, and hire the best subs for each job. I would recommend them wholeheartedly to anyone looking for solid work. read more

Brett never finished the work we paid him for and he was extremely unprofessional. The work his guys did do was really sloppy. We would never use him again. read more

Don't remodel unless you have Frame2Finish make it happen. I am using F2F for a second time because they are amazing craftsmen. F2F is a professional operation; from the initial encounter with Brett Harwin, the owner, through to the last finishing touch applied. The crew and the subcontractors ( Oliver Electrical, plumbing, stone) are meticulous. We all hear horror stories about remodels gone bad. No nightmares with F2F as Brett sets extraordinary expectations of himself and his crew. Everyone is professional and respectful; you will fall in love with all these " guys and office gals". Their timely results are fabulous. I wish I had before and after pictures to show; you wouldn't believe your eyes. Call Brett right now; don't wait another minute! You will thank me; I promise. read more

During the course of the last 50 years, I have worked with dozens of contractors doing a variety of projects ranging from teardowns to re-modeling kitchens and bathrooms. I have never used the same contractor twice nor have I ever recommended one ---- until now. Brett Harwin, owner of Frame2Finish, and his team are simply amazing. At the end of 2020 a huge pine tree (with a 40-foot canopy) fell on our home, severely damaging our dining and living areas (approximately 1000 sf). We contracted with Brett who assessed the extent of the damage and worked hand in hand with our insurance company to repair our residence as quickly and efficiently as possible. We needed major re-construction: everything from a new roof including some new rafters, to structural engineering of the walls, to replacement of drywall, new stucco, painting, and the list goes on. My wife and I (along with our two dogs) lived in our home during the entire construction process (the pandemic complicated matters). Brett's team sealed off the damaged area with a temporary wall protecting us from most of the noise and all of the dust and debris. The workers were extremely conscientious, courteous, competent, and neat. They all followed the ABCs of cooking--Always Be Cleaning. Can you imagine a construction site being called immaculate? They went way beyond the call of duty, taking extreme pride in their workmanship and cognizant of the fact they were in our home. They didn't merely do what was necessary, they made other repairs that our 70-year-old home needed. Brett's attention to detail was clear in the manner in which he approached the project and in the vetting of his vendors, who were as conscientious and professional as Brett's team. The work was completed in a timely manner and our home looks better than ever. Brett kept us apprised on a regular basis of each step of the process. He listened to our concerns, took notes, noticed additional items that needed attention, and was highly responsive. I can't thank Bret and his Frame2Finish team enough for turning a disaster into a pleasant and even enjoyable process. read more

I've always been nervous to hire someone for ANY work around my house. Usually they show up late or not at all, or worse, do a bad job that someone else needs to come and fix. I'm SO happy I reached out to Brett and Frame 2 Finish for some work around my condo in Brentwood. Not only did they arrive on time, cleaned up every area they worked on, were careful with moving pieces around my house but they are VERY detail oriented. It's a relief to have someone I can now call on and count on for jobs both big and small. I even had them hang my TV (seems small but trust me you can mess this up easily) and they brought items that even my TV mounting kit didn't come with, hung it up beautifully, helped with advise on where/what as well. OH and this may sound small but they asked if I'd like them to remove their shoes before coming in. A BIG change from workers I've had who tracked muddy foot prints across my house (ridiculous, I know). Will be calling them again when I look at remodeling my kitchen at the end of this year. read more

This is one review we are happy to write. It has been a joy working with Brett, Michelle and their crew. Everyone was so professional --- always polite and accommodating. From the signing of the contract, to the design/construction phase and ultimately our beautifully completed home, we thank you for your exceptional work ethic and high quality work product. Iris and Roger. read more

the worst experience of my life- stay away!!! frame2finish (or frame2NEVERfinish) as I like to call them, should be shut down immediately. nothing but huge problems and mistakes from day 1, workers have zero skill, zero qualifications, everyone is clueless. the blind leading the blind. do not hire these guys, i promise it will be the biggest mistake of your life!!! thieves, scam artists, complete frauds. read more

Brett, Neyra and the whole team at Frame2Finish did a fantastic job on my mom's new condo. Everything that was done had to be done from afar. My mom lives in Philadelphia and I live in Seattle but coordinating with Frame2Finish was a breeze. They are very honest, reliable, and explain everything upfront from billing to final cleaning to all the details in between. They were also very patient with the draconian bylaws the condo association asked them to abide by. In only a few months my mom's condo was completely renovated into a beautiful space that shows off its light and views. My mom has had many years of decorating and renovating other homes so when it came to this one, where she plans on retiring, she had some specific ideas that Frame2Finish was able to bring to fruition. I highly recommend them! read more

This review has been a long time coming. Sorry for the long delay, Brett and Neyra. Neyra, was always available and always checking in and making sure the projects going on were being done correctly and to the best of the experts abilities. Brett, came over a few times to check on things as well. Both Neyra and Brett were great to work with and really cared that everything was done right. If there was even the smallest correction, they would have it re done and fixed properly. My husband and I are loving our new tiled powder room, the back splash on our fireplaces and our LED lighting (thank you Carlos and crew for helping with replacing all of our lights (over 80) with LED's). Frame2Finish has an awesome and honest, crew. They are fast, reliable, fair with pricing, and their team seemed available 24/7 to help. Can't wait to use them again when we redo our bathrooms and entry floors. read more

Run away fast! You'd be better off having your child's home room class work on your house. Bret and his company Frame2Finish were contracted to renovate the first floor of our two story home and a year later we're still trying to mitigate the damage he caused. His workers and subcontractors, with the exception of his electrician, were of the lowest quality and skill. He was constantly trying to cut corners, gave poor advice and as a General Contractor he is totally lacking in any project planning or management skills. There was absolutely no oversight from management what so ever. The only time we saw Bret, the owner, was when he wanted to collect a check. We quickly learned that Bret and Frame2Finish rely on the old contractor's approach of underbidding to get a project and then upcharges at every turn with exhorbitant "Change Orders" to pad his profits. He argued against performing leak tests on shower pans that we needed and later came back showing positive leaks. He couseled against leveling a ceiling in our kitchen until after he'd torn it down and redrywalled it back up. This guy is bad news! In the spirit of providing a balanced review, he does answer his phone and he sends me a nice "Happy Father's Day" text message. read more

Great contractor - have used them for 2 separate remodeling jobs and also an addition on my home. Excellent quality workers and workmanship, very courteous and a pleasure to have in my home. Brett, the owner pays great attention to detail and obviously takes a lot of pride in his projects and the way he treats his staff. Highly recommend. read more

I used Frame2Finish for my gym I leased 5 months ago. They redid everything, and saved me a ton of money by using a wood file cabinet that was already in the space as a standing desk by the front door and a desk for my office. They laid down my gym flooring, built my custom desks, put a 1 way mirror in my office, redid the entire bathroom (flooring, toilet, installed a new sink, etc), and a million other things I can't remember. They are super friendly and super fun. I was there most of them time when they were working and we had a blast. Oh, did I mention they got the job done 3 days earlier than expected? Love these guys and have already referred them to all my friends and clients. read more

Frame2Finish just did our F45 Training Center in Venice California. Brett and his staff were amazing! They were fast, did quality work, were super fair with fee's, and no hassles or stress whatsoever! As having built 4 Menchie's Frozen Yogurt shops over the past 6 years as well as remodeled my home and rental home, I can honestly say Brett has exceeded my expectations and is by far the best contractor I've ever worked with! I will be highly recommending Frame2Finish to everyone I talk to who needs a contractor and will be using them for our next F45 project next month in Pacific Palisades and more to follow! read more

Brett Harwin, General Contractor from Frame 2 Finish, could see the thousand-yard stare in our eyes when my wife and I first met with him after discovering that a leaky pipe and ensuing black mold required us to gut the designer kitchen we'd remodeled only a few years prior. Our thirty-plus year marriage has given us two kids, eight dogs, and a case of Post Traumatic Contractor Disorder from the six home renovations we've somehow managed to survive. Brett listened as we recounted our litany of horror stories. There was the roofer who told us our new roof would be done in "eight working days." Eight working weeks later, there was still a mountain of construction debris in the middle of our driveway, and plastic tarps where the roof should have been by now, as winter rain threatened. Next was the contractor who sued us for the unsafe work site that he was operating on our property. At the top of the list: the construction crew that just up and left one day, disappearing for two weeks because the contractor had landed a gig on Extreme Home Makeover, a discovery we only made while camping out in front of the TV in our half-built family room. "With Frame 2 Finish on board," Brett reassured, "your long nightmare is over." I managed a sardonic smile and mumbled something about "deeds not words." My wife and I had heard it all before. We soon realized, however, that we were face-to-face with a unicorn: Brett Harwin is a general contractor who keeps his word. Instead of the usual song and dance about "materials on back order" and inspectors "down with the flu," there were actual deeds done, executed by his team of sub contractors, each of whom is first rate. Cabinetmakers, plumbers, framers, painters, and electricians--all master craftsman, and a pleasure to deal with. Brett presented us with a bid, a schedule, and honored both. The kitchen came in on time, on budget. Workmen showed up when they were supposed to, and left our house and grounds spic and span at the end of each day. Unforeseen problems arise on every job, and ours was no exception, when a motherlode of asbestos linoleum was discovered under the existing floor. Most contractors would welcome a delay like that to catch up on the other nine jobs they are juggling. But Brett and the Frame 2 Finish A-team are problem solvers and immediately got out in front of it, allowing us to finish on time in spite of this curve ball. Unlike those contractors who over-promise and under-deliver, Frame 2 Finish specializes in bespoke work, old-world craftsmanship of the highest caliber, done in a professional, sure-footed way that emphasizes quality and courtesy. It is our great pleasure to recommend Brett Harwin and Frame 2 Frame with our unqualified endorsement. read more

Quality work, reliable crew, constant communication and helpful guidance! Brett and his team have done an excellent job at my house. I was so impressed that his crew, they show up early, do their job and clean at the end of the day. Neyra and Brett are helpful and professional. I am so impressed with Brett, his staff and the end results that I highly recommend Frame2Finish! Amazing!!! read more

Excellent job! From initial consultation to implementation and final details. Our project was a master bathroom remodel. Took about a week. Everything went great. I would defiantly recommend Frame2Finish to anyone looking for a construction contractor. Rachel and Ron read more

Frame 2 Finish came highly recommended by my broker. We had them change the location of the front door, install new windows, repaint, re-finish floors, and put in drywall in a garage, when we moved into our house. It was a modest size job. Having been in the business before I was so surprised that they finished the job on time, with their guys showing up to work conscientiously everyday. The quality of the work was high and they like to be known for cleaning up the job site well. We are very happy with the results. We had to make some small change orders and they were very reasonable about them. I recommend them highly! read more

Great quality for an excellent price!! I am very happy to have found Frame 2 Finish as they are friendly, efficient and skilled at any sort of home improvement or repair. From now on Frame 2 Finish is my very first call! read more

After working at F45 Training Venice, I saw the incredible work that Brett and his staff did. So once the opportunity to open my own training centre arose of course I was going to use them. They were recommended so highly. Unfortunately due to costs of the job Brett provided me the opportunity to use a contractor directly instead of him subbing the job out and costing me more in the process. He sacrificed making money because he wanted to see my job completed and my business succeed. Brett showed the utmost honesty and integrity by doing so. Those are incredibly hard traits find these days and I am incredibly grateful to him for that. If you're looking for a contractor who not only will do the job to the highest standard but also give you the piece of mind that in no way will you be taken for a ride then Brett and Frame2Finish are the people you should use. read more

Excellent work! They actually finished the job on the day they promised to be done. As we all know that doesn't happen all the time, and this was during holiday season!! Their work quality is great and they are very professional, efficient and friendly. I highly recommend them. read more

I can't say enough positive things about Frame 2 Finish and its owner, Brett Harwin! I couldn't have asked for a faster response to my construction issue or a more talented, courteous and professional crew that tackled the issue. I wish I had known about Frame 2 Finish in the past but, I guarantee, I won't use anyone else but them in the future! read more

We hired Frame 2 Finish 2 years ago for hour major home remodeling project. We completely gutted our kithen, added new doors and windows everywhere; gutted a 2nd bathroom, added square feet to our master bedroom, and completely added a new bathroom and master closet. We did flooring, everything from beginning to end. We checked at least 4-5 references, saw their work, asked lots of questions. I didn't want to make the mistakes I heard from so man people with their contractors. We were thrilled with the quality of work, and professionalism of the owner, Brett Harwin, and all of his crew. They showed up every day, on time, worked hard, and cleaned up way better than could be expected each and every day. There were no surprise change orders, they completed the project on time. We also did an extension in our bedroom; and had to move in before it was completed. I could see each day how hard the crew worked. After we moved in and the project was completed, we had some minor work that needed to be done, and again, Brett would call back immediately, and come out and take care of whatever needed to be done. Overall we are thrilled with our home, and we've referred Frame 2 Finish to many of our friends. read more

F2F was recommended to me by my brother who had used them for some relatively smaller projects, and I was looking to re-do some elements of a recent home purchase - new floors, painting done right, exterior painting, new kitchen cabinets, new roof, and an overall professional look around about what was needed as opposed to "must have" based on the inspection report. I had very tight deadlines of about a month to finish the work before I was moving out of my old house with my dog into my new house, so there was no where else to go. F2F did a fantastic job, both on time, on budget, and first class work all around. The main thing was that they were very communicative the whole time. My interior designer was also impressed with this unique quality. Great quality and well-priced, and nice guys/gals to boot! Would definitely recommend to anyone if you are looking for first-rate work. read more

We are very happy with the lasting quality of Frame2Finish! We gutted the majority of our upstairs (we were even able to live downstairs during the 4 month project thanks to their noninvasive work and crew!) and feel the work was excellent and done in a timely manner. Brett is great to work with, as well as his staff and crew. They all made the process easy and affordable. read more
