Big thank you to Mike Garabedian and his team. We absolutely love the guest bathroom remodel and new wood flooring in our house. Everything went so smoothly, and Mike's team was so accommodating. We look forward to working with Mike Garabedian again when we start painting later this year. read more

Our experience with Mike Garabedian and the staff at Garabedian Properties has been Fantastic. We have been in our Garabedian house for over 3 years. I can't comment enough on the Quality of the build and the Design of our home. We constantly have people driving by to take pictures of the outside. It is just a stunning home. In the February 2021 freeze and blackout, ours was the only house on the street that did not reach freezing temperatures inside. No pipe bursts as Garabedian designed the home to have all of the water heaters and water running through the home on the interior walls and within an encapsulated attic that remains the same temperature of the home. We have had several high-end Home builders in our house and ALL of them have commented on the remarkable quality of the products used and the overall build. Throughout the past 3 years in our home, Mike has reached out to us on several occasions (as well as during the freeze and blackout) to check on us and see if we needed anything. Once you buy a home from Garabedian, its like your a part of their Family. Always checking in and letting us know they are there if we need anything. We could not be happier with our home. Thank you Garabedian Team and Mike! read more

Mike is a pleasure to work with and has a great deal of knowledge and experience. He works well with our architect and has tremendous attention to detail and design as he makes certain our plans exactly fit our needs and desires. We appreciate his methodical approach and availability for any questions. He lets us know the pros and cons of our suggestions, no matter how out of the box they may be, and leaves the final decision to us. After doing two remodels and one new construction build we realize how badly things can go. We give Mike our highest recommendation without any reservations. read more

I'm a return client of Garabedian Properties. This project was a demo and rebuild of our master suite, due to freeze storm water damage. The work done is of excellent quality with attention to detail and cleanliness. I'd use them again! Many thanks for a job well done! read more

Mike and his team worked tirelessly to remodel a home for a Building Homes for Heroes Veteran and his family. Their quality of work, attention to detail and commitment to excellence was evident in the completed project. Mike was hands on during the entire project. Even when we encountered speed bumps - Mike was always ready with a solution. The Veteran and his family were completely overwhelmed with joy when they entered the home. Thank you for support and contribution!!! read more

$420,000 dollar judgement on this builder for the defective house he built us which is currently as of 11/19/17 unpaid. The judgement is public record now and searchable. Multiple code violations on our dream home, 50 windows were never flashed or installed according to install instructions, no sealant behind any window and tyvek done completely wrong which actually directed water inside. Brown water rained into dining room before we did destructive testing because the water has hit the OSB behind the sheathing. Masonry deemed imminent life safety hazard due to lack of brick ties in upper stories. Fireplace also doesn't have enough brick ties to code. Multiple building envelope defects such as bridging mortar and missing weep holes so wall cavity cannot drain properly. All that plus two shower pan leaks, in addition to backer board that has seams and gaps allowing water to pour into the wall cavity for years and grow mold. Mold, drainage issues, foundation differential movement and the builder did not obtain a site specific soil test, despite contracting for one in our PSA and telling us he was doing one. Mike Garabedian was very challenging to reach and at times not responsive (I have texts to back this) when this first got going in 2014/15 and put us off for months despite having tons of mold from the pan leaks. Our engineering reports state that to properly repair the house we need to remove all masonry on 100% of the house, remove wet insulation and wet osb and WRB that was damaged as well as replace Windows and then put it all back together again. And that is just the outside, the inside is a whole other issue. Getting to this point has been a long road - 3 years now - and the builder blamed homeowner maintenance in writing (I have all the letters) for the vast majority of our time dealing with him starting in 2014. It wasn't until we took off the front masonry off in September of 2016 and exposed the defective work, that we discovered the truth. We had to go through arbitration because the builder never offered mold remediation, and his fix for the repair was to drill upwards of 50+ helix ties /anchor bolts in the entire exterior of the house which our engineers deemed unacceptable for a variety of reasons, like creating 50+ more water penetrations in an already defective building envelope and the probability of locating a stud that many times could damage our framing structurally. Not to mention the stigma of a house with nuts and bolts in the exterior that would require ongoing maintenance to avoid water penetration... in addition to the visible patches everywhere! The builder's expert - who had the lowest bid - won vs ours so when we contacted his expert to repair the house like he told the arbiter he would, he was suddenly too busy and has ignored my emails and just this week I received a cease and desist notice from the builders attorney to stop contacting the builders expert... I couldn't get so much as a recommendation from the builders expert on who could do the repair. Now we can't find anyone to do the work or the type of repair (no one I've contacted has ever done it on an entire upper story of 5K square but mainly small areas)...Not to mention finding someone for that low price! Now even if he does pay his judgement we can't even fix the house properly without being out hundreds of thousands. This has been so incredibly difficult on my family and I wish we had never met him or trusted him to build our house - that we'll likely lose b/c we can't afford to repair all of these issues. Truly heartbreaking and it's not even over yet. Our children have paid the ultimate price for this builders actions. Having to battle my husband's brain cancer with the added stress of a home we haven't been able to live in for over a year bc of aspergillis and fear of complications while my husband is undergoing chemo and is immunocompromised has been difficult. Two Christmas' we will not be in our home and cannot sell easily either bc of the nature of the defects. We pray every night that the builder does the right thing for our family ..who welcomed us to his family in the very beginning and who we trusted would build us a safe forever home that we could live in. The builder stated in response to this review that some of what we've posted is untrue - but we would NEVER put anything in writing that wasn't true and can back everything in this review. In fact, my dad reached out to Certified Master Builder not knowing Garabedian is the president of that group - and Garabedian had his attorneys communicate that the pictures of our house my dad sent from destructive testing were "actionable", so putting something untrue in writing would not be a risk i'm ever willing to take. The truth is the truth. read more

See all

Mike built a commercial property for me in 2016 and over 2 years later fixed for free a small roof issue we were having that insurance wouldn't covered and other roofers wanted to charge a ridiculous amount!! Mike has gone above and beyond his 1 year guaranteed contract service agreement to ensure our satisfaction and quality of his product. It's not often you find a builder who will continue to earn your business even after they've already done the job years before. To say we are happy with the quality and service is an understatement. Highly recommend. read more

Credible and reliable firm. Family and guests that see our home always compliment the high standards and materials that were used to build our home. Service after the sale is terrific and consistent. read more
