The entire team was extremely easy to work with, consistently professional, and committed to delivering high-quality results. We were kept informed at every stage of the process, which gave us complete confidence in the progress and direction of the project. The remodel was completed on time, and the workmanship throughout exceeded our expectations. The crew was respectful not only of our home but also of our neighbors, and they ensured the job site was clean and organized at the end of each day. This level of care and consideration made a meaningful difference during the construction period. The office staff was always courteous and efficient, making sure we were in regular contact with both our designer and project manager. Their communication helped the project stay on track and minimized any potential stress. Our designer was wonderful to work with. She guided us through the design of our kitchen and master bathroom and assisted with interior and exterior color selections as well as the choice of wood flooring. Her vision, expertise, and collaborative approach helped us create spaces that feel both beautiful and functional. The project manager kept us up to date on every phase of construction. He made sure we knew what decisions were coming up--from appliances and lighting fixtures to paint colors and finishing details--and his proactive communication ensured there were never any surprises. Overall, JRP Design & Remodel delivered a smooth, well-managed, and highly professional remodeling experience. We are extremely pleased with the results and would confidently recommend their team to anyone considering a home renovation.

I had a very specific vision on what I wanted and he really was able to take my vision and turn it into architectural design. All the while he would come up with clever ideas which made everything better. He really was an amazing asset in working with the city of Thousand Oaks. He knows about everyone there and would smooth things out when I would hit a road block. He was invaluable throughout my whole project. I can't recommend him enough. I wouldn't hesitate to use him again should I ever need an architect.

We had ADU drawings…read moredesigned at this firm about a year ago and the whole process from drawing to structural engineer to getting the city permit were all done here. I had chose RM designs after interviewing more than 7 firms. What stood out about RM was the knowledge that Robert had in the construction business and what the city wants. It seems that he is constantly educating himself on what city planning wants. He was very helpful in answering any questions we may have in regard to construction. Even though he is already done designing our project, his willingness to answer any questions and help us understand the process of construction had been very helpful. The value of the project is reasonable and their service was beyond what I expected. Thus, I highly recommend this firm in handling any of your future remodeling or builds.

We had an incredible experience working with Michael and Baldo at Bela Development. As first-time…read morerenovators, we were understandably nervous, but they guided us through every detail with patience, expertise, and care. They completed a full gut renovation of our primary bathroom and a renovation of our guest bath, and the results exceeded our expectations. The tile work is absolutely gorgeous, the attention to detail is next level, and the job site was kept impeccably clean--which was especially important since my partner and I were living in the house with our dogs throughout the project. That level of thoughtfulness made a huge difference. Baldo was amazing at problem-solving and offering smart ideas and workarounds, especially given the surprises that come with an older home (ours was built in 1977). Michael was equally outstanding--always diligent, responsive, and proactive in addressing any questions or concerns I had along the way. We were so happy with their work that we've already had them back to update our kitchen with new backsplash and tile work, as well as an outdoor bar. I can't recommend Bela Development highly enough. Skilled, trustworthy, and a true pleasure to work with from start to finish.

The project was finished two weeks earlier than expected, which was a great plus for us to be able to move in back sooner. When unexpected and unforeseen issues came up, Tom handled everything very professionally. He took the time to explain what was going on, walked us through our options, and helped us choose solutions that made sense - all without surprise costs and while staying within our budget. The quality of the work was solid, the crew was respectful and clean, and we always felt informed and comfortable throughout the project. We're very happy with the results and would definitely recommend Bela Development to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable contractor.

We hired Ron to do the architectural plans for the remodel of a fourplex. He came in with a fancy camera scanner to measure everything, a very efficient process. He was very much on time with the delivery of the initial draft. We discussed minor changes and submitted to the city, and they had just had a few minor corrections before approval, which is better than other architectural teams I have worked with. After we began work on the project, we discovered a beam in the ceiling was not pointing in the right direction, leading to the need for a revision to the plans. The engineer Margarito went on site and approved changes, which allowed us to quickly adapt. Overall this was a very streamlined process, I would be happy to use his services in the future and can very much recommend him.

It was also hard to find someone willing to take on a smaller project at a fair price, and they were very thorough. Even months later, they've still been responsive with follow-up questions from our contractor. Would definitely recommend, especially for smaller renovations or additions.
