I highly recommend Judy and her team. She did a tremendous job remodeling the bathrooms in our…read moreNapa County home. She took us from a one full, one half bath to two fulls and one half bath - remodeling two bathrooms and adding a half. Throughout the process Judy was an incredible communicator. We first met at the house where we talked through our goals, style and potential design ideas. She provided quotes and - once agreed on a scope - managed much of the process digitally, making the process very seamless for us. Judy took in our Pinterest design ideas and used them to help in her designs. When we first had concerns with code compliance, Judy took the time to visit the County, getting written assurance that the plans would pass code. I trusted Judy so much that over the three month process we relied solely on her pictures and email updates to keep apprised throughout the process. While there were some hiccups along the way - everything from a former builder using OJ boxes for ducting to surprise rot - Judy kept up the proactive communication and helped us along the way. The end result is incredible, and Judy's attention to detail shines through. Everything from perfectly aligned subway tile to little things like motion sensitive lights help to make our bathrooms a space to admire. I will definitely use Judy and team for our next remodel.

She has been fun to work with, with a positive, problem-solving attitude, lots of great ideas, and comfort with our choices when they differed from her suggestions. She listened carefully, and really used our tastes in the design. Of her many great qualities, I'd say that her design eye, problem-shoving ability, and the superb craftsmen she employs are high points-as well as being great fun to work with. She and her team were organized, on-time and on-budget. The construction and finish work are exquisite. Her and her team's finest moment occurred at the outset, though, when a water main was discovered in a location completely different than was indicated in the blueprints. I despaired, it looked like the linchpin of the remodel was impossible, but she just said "don't worry, we'll figure this out", and called me back within an hour with the solution. She appreciates her team, too-very important. Every time I walk into our gorgeous home, I thank Judy. You should see what she did for us!

Before I explain my bad review, just know that if you hire this guy to install a granite…read morecountertop, he does not have a truck, so you'll have to pay for a Uhaul (which cost me over $400 because of how far he had to drive). On top of that, he has no helpers and will expect you to help him lift a 1000 pound granite slab out of the truck and in to your house. So I hope you're young and hit the gym regularly, otherwise you're screwed. I already was a little turned off by all the effort and money I had to put in myself on top of what I was already paying him (Renting the Uhaul for $400, then returning it, then having to sneak out of work and drive 30 minutes to meet him at my house to help bring this super heavy slab in the kitchen), but I figured as long as he does a good job installing it, I'll be happy. He did do a great job installing it I will say, but he never sealed it nor asked me if I wanted it sealed (I didn't know sealing granite was even a thing which is why I didn't bring it up myself, but apparently most granite installers seal the granite after install to keep it protected). I ended up ruining it with Apple Cider Vinegar just a couple days later (which most likely wouldn't have happened if it was sealed). I asked him why he didn't offer sealing it and he said that most installers don't do that because the pre-fab slabs should already come sealed and that it's the granite company's fault for not sealing it. I didn't want to play the blame game and at the end of the day, I was the idiot for getting ACV on it, so I just took the blame and the loss and told him to please just install another one. Ended up spending another total of $2500 on another slab plus install. He sealed it and then immediately covered it with tape and paper because I was having the house remodeled and didn't want dust getting on it. Once I removed the paper, the slab he bought looked HORRIBLE. Dull smudgy marks literally everywhere. I don't recall it looking like that when he brought it to my home, but I only looked at it for a second before going to work and then paid my tenant to help him bring it in the house since I couldn't leave work. When I told him about it, he had no answer for how this could have happened but assured me he could fix it with sealer that's meant for black countertops. He applied it and texted me that it fixed the whole problem. When I came home to see it, it looked exactly the same. I was super annoyed but trying my hardest to stay calm about it. He told me maybe he could try buffing it but wasn't sure if that would fix it and started complaining about how the buffing pad costs $85 though. I told I would pay for the pad. Then he told me the place he thought would have it didn't have it. At this point, I had a granite restoration company look at it and they told me he may have ruined it by covering it with paper right after sealing it instead of letting the sealer cure for 24-48 hours. When I presented their theory to him, he told me they don't know what they are talking about and that I should not be getting opinions from a granite repair and restoration (when literally what I need is granite repair and restoration to be done smh). Then when I told him I just don't know who to believe and am just really frustrated and want this fixed, he told me I was being disrespectful for questioning his knowledge about granite. I told him that at the end of the day, whether he caused this or whether the slab has always looked like this, this falls on him because I trusted him to buy me a slab that was brand new and looked brand new and those are literally the only two options of how this could have happened. Either it looked like this when he bought or he ruined it himself. There's no other possibility for how this could have happened nor could he even give me another possibility, yet he still refused to take any accountability and was just deflecting, being manipulative, and gas lighting me. Even had the audacity to tell him he did so much stuff for free and that I was super unappreciative. When I asked for one example of what he did for free, he just listed everything he did that was already part of the quote he gave me lmao. Didn't care at all that I've now spent over $5000 and still ended up with a horrible looking countertop. All he cared about was how me putting the blame on him was making HIM feel. He kept saying he would take care of it, but wouldn't tell me how when I kept asking what the plan is if buffing it doesn't work. Then he eventually just ignored all my messages. At the end of the day, the guy does decent work, but is definitely not professional and if any mistakes are to occur, he refuses to take accountability for them. I now have to look elsewhere to get his mistake fixed and spend a bunch of more money.

We had used Javier over 15 years ago to completely remodel a 1940's era kitchen in our Alamo home…read more He also did some seismic repairs as well. We were completely happy with the work he performed. We recently contacted him again to do a complete make over of a 700 sq. ft. space that we use as a guest room. Once again we were completely happy with the work performed by Javier and his excellent crew. The highlight of the work performed was the stunning redo of the bathroom. It was a complete demo of the old bathroom and the results were fantastic. Everyone who has seen it and remembered the old bathroom were amazed at the results. Some specific highlights of the work performed on the project: All of the workers Javier used on the project were outstanding. They were, polite, skilled and cooperative. Javier was always available at critical points in the project. We were especially impressed with the painting that was done. It was equal to that of any painting contractor. They always completely cleaned up and hauled away all trash. Not a trivial item. They performed several tasks that were not included in the work order. In one case a sofa bed delivered by Ikea for the room was left unassembled even though we had paid Ikea to do so. (still have not resolved this with Ikea). Javier's workers put it together for us. In another case; we had ordered carpeting from Home Depot and they were to move the furniture out of the room and remove the old carpeting. They showed up a day late with only one installer. It was clear that one person was not going to be able to do all of that. The installer left without notice even though Javier's crew offered to help him. In order to keep on schedule Javier's crew removed the old carpet and moved all of the furniture out of the room. Home Depot did show up the next day with 2 installers and because they didn't have to any other work got the carpet installed. Probably would not use them again. In conclusion we would not hesitate to recommend Javier to anyone who wants a quality remodel experience. Pat and Pam M

Problem solved! 5 years later, the flange was leaking and the ceiling downstairs is dripping. The toilet was glued to the floor with RTV and that was hiding a massive leak! Turns out they shoved in two wax rings on top of each other, and there was a cone that restricted the drain down to about 3". The cone prevented a flush from dropping immediately down the drain, and the wax ring sandwich leaked! The cone also caused a lot of clogs over the years. Now I have an almost $6,000 plumbing repair, I have to patch my ceiling, and I have a mold issue! There's never time to do it right, but there's always time to do it twice! I also found old cans of Modelo in my attic after the flip!
