Did an amazing job replacing my 20 year old HVAC and AC units, something several people kept bidding me up for. GroundUp was very fair and efficient, will always recommend them.

I'll let the pictures speak for themselves on how impressed I have been with the results of my back yard. It was a pleasure to work with field manager Adi Aiish, who when we started this project held true to his promise to come back and fix any issues that may come up. I highly recommend GUB for two reasons: 1 All construction projects will encounter some unexpected hurdles and issues. I've learned this through my experience with GUB and also other companies. But what I am most concerned about is the willingness to resolve the issues. Adi promised me that on day 1 and even after 3 months following the completion of the project, they stood to that 100%. Not only did they own up, but they didn't make me jump trough loops and hoops to resolve the issues. 2 Communication with Adi was amazing! If you're like me that you want to stay involved with the project but not want to project manage, then you'll appreciate Adi's ability to keep you up to speed every day. At times I would get heated, but Adi was my Zen master through all this. After all is said and done, and having the experiences with GUB (both good and not so good) I would hire Adi and his crew 100% again. I have the backyard I've always wanted and thanks to this team, it's now a reality.

Ground up Builders did a great job on our kitchen. Beginnongvwoty the initial meeting with Peter our project manager, my husband and I knew we would use them. The workers cleaned up after themselves, polite and did a great job. Our outcome super exceeded our expectations. Thanks again!

Ground up builders is an immaculate firm for all your home improvement needs. My aunt wanted a backsplash and some work done in her kitchen. They came out gave her options on what she wanted showed pictures of other work they have done along the same lines of work and gave her a great bid. We called them back after a few days to go through with the project and the work was done in no time. We have since had non stop compliments from her friends and neighbors they love the upgrades her home is older so definitely an improvement! Thank you ground up for everything we will definitely recommend you time and time again.

Talked to 4-6 builders in the area before finally working with Sean on building out our dream home in Pasadena . Finest quality builder and took no short cuts at all! Highly recommend!

MRI Construction & Remodeling

MRI Construction & Remodeling

(39 reviews)

Our electric cooktop and hood broke many months ago, and we thought that replacing it with a gas…read morecooktop and new hood would be straightforward. It turns out that was not true. One plumber could install a gas line only, another plumber could install a gas line and the gas cooktop but not the hood, and an appliance installation technician could not install the cooktop because he could not cut into the existing granite top. So I found Max of MRI Construction and Remodeling on Yelp, and he said that he could do the work within that original scope -- cooktop, hood, and gas line -- but that we should anticipate a backup plan in case the granite cracked during installation. Because we plan to live in this house for as long as possible, we decided to go through a full kitchen renovation. We had a prior experience with another general contractor who was impossible to get a hold of and who could not ensure the quality of the subcontractors he hired, and interviewed another general contractor who gave us the impression that we would have to engage with suppliers and subcontractors more than seemed feasible. We are happy to say that we just finished our kitchen renovation last week! And it was finished a week earlier than scheduled. We are thankful to Max and his team of subcontractors! We are really happy with the final kitchen, given how much we cook at home. And surprisingly the process was easy despite its size and time of 6 weeks. Max has the strengths and qualities you want for your construction projects: he's incredibly responsive, honest and communicative, and willing and able to troubleshoot issues that come up, as they invariably do, both small and large. He makes recommendations if you ask and gives you options for decisions for which there are too many options. He works with an amazing group of subcontractors who are experts in their craft. There was an exception with one subcontractor but Max was able to get that course-corrected so that the project finished strong. We appreciate his integrity and his willingness to ensure that the project meets your needs and expectations. We are grateful that we found Max on Yelp and for being able to work with him on a kitchen that we love and also within budget!! Thank you, Max and MRI Construction!!

After interviewing and receiving quotes from a number of contractors we chose to work with Max at…read moreMRI. His bid was in line with the scope of work and very detailed and importanly his management experience and the level of communication were important factors in our decision. Communication continued to be excellent and responsive. This was an extensive remodel including taking out old plaster popcorn ceilings and walls and completely redoing a galley kitchen and two bathrooms with updated plumbing, electrical, insulation and mechanical systems. I was especially impressed with the the highly skilled, conscientous and thorough subs for all of the critical trades especially drywall and painting, cabinetry, flooring and finish work, tile, electrical, plumbing plus personnel for some specialty work. The result was a satisfactory finished project and I would use MRI again for a project of this size. I am doing some final DIY on the project (locks, bathroom mirrors, etc) and hope to upload more pix later. Max was very helpful with some of the unforeseen issues, large and small that came along and was patient and flexible managing the trades schedules and also keeping us on task with selecting finishes and accessories. The project ended up taking a couple of more weeks than layed out in the contract timeline due to a couple of critical issues with some beams, asbestos ducts, termite treatment, but was pretty much on track as estimated.

Kuarto is the right blend of modern minimalist! Located on one of the busiest streets of Long…read moreBeach, Kuarto is situated in a quaint little building that be easy to miss. Once you're inside however, it can feel like you're away from the traffic and it gives off a very calming atmosphere. All the items are neatly and particularly placed. The store carries a variety of home products to self-care goods. Since it's a novelty store, you can expect that some of these items are not "budget-friendly." With that being said, you can tell that all of the items are of immense quality. They carry some noteworthy brands like Aesop and Kinto. If you're choosing to make a purchase just based on quality, you've made a great investment. I had a chance to speak to Arianne and she was well-informed about the products. I wasn't prepared to make a moderate purchase upon first visit, but I am keen on coming back! I only purchased their lip balm and it's currently my favorite product to use. If you're ever in the Long Beach area, I recommend paying this store a visit!

Here you will find lots of very high quality decor for your home, office, bedroom or a gift for your minimalist friends. There are ceramic bowls for your Palo Santo or White sage, which they also carry here, and large pots and tableware items. All of their scented items like incense, soaps, oil diffusers, candles, room sprays are all unique, irresistible, and sophisticated-smelling. They will definitely set the ambience in your room to new levels. There are some unique items here that I don't really want to share with the internet just yet. Lol. You're just gonna have to go in and find out for yourself. Welcome to Long Beach, Kuarto, and can't wait to see what else is in store.
