After a kitchen drain leak back at the start of COVID, our kitchen was completely torn out and we…read morewere without a kitchen for 18 months. Desparate for a new kitchen, we came across Top Leader and their rep, Ilan Harir. Ilan was amazing from start to finish. He provided us a very reasonable quote for all of the work and got started right away. The project did get extended longer than we thought, but this was simply a function of the pandemic and not for any other reason. My wife and I could not be happier with the final product. We have a brand new beautiful kitchen, open air format into our new family room and our friends and family cannot stop raving about it when they come over. I would highly recommend Top Leader and Ilan and his crew. Particularly Milo and his son...they are simply the best in the business at what they do.

I have worked with many people before as I grew up in a home that always needed some TLC work lol,…read moreand I have to say JOA brothers were attentive to what this project needed and kept me informed of the status. The project here was to build a ramp and pour new asphalt, but we needed a licensed contractor. And let me tell you the quality of their craftsmanship was quickly noticed once the project was completed and we tested it out. They completed the project under projected time and we will definitely be working with them again in the near future, transparency and honesty go a long way in this industry and I wanted to share my experience with others because I know that finding quality and reliable contractors is not always easy.

WOW did I get lucky finding Miguel and his crew. I wasn't 100% sold with all of the other people I…read moremet with. in fact I was almost about to give up, but as soon as I met Miguel, I knew this was my guy to remodel my kitchen. He explained everything and made sure I really liked the ideas he had for me. Everyone else made me feel like it was an upsell, but with Miguel, he assured me that it wouldn't cost much for the small upgrades, and it would make my kitchen look much nicer. He was absolutely right, and I couldn't be happier with my beautiful new kitchen. The project took a little over 2 weeks to do, and that was only because of the pouring rain. Miguels crew worked very hard to get my kitchen done ASAP. I originally had marble counters, but I now have quartz which I love. Miguel sent me to a great place that had so many different options to choose from. I put new backsplash and beautiful new white shaker cabinets with lighting underneath. Miguel put on all of my handles to the cabinets himself the last night, making sure they were on just right and where I wanted them. He and his son didn't finish until 10 pm on a Friday night, just so I could have everything completely done like he promised me. Not only was pricing fair but the hard work and great guys that work for Miguel made the entire experience that much better. Everyone was nice, professional and worked very hard. Hopefully the next project with Miguel will be my bathroom.

I own a unit in Laguna Woods. I was doing a bathroom remodel to remove an existing tub to replace…read morewith walk in shower to accommodate my 88 year old mother who lives in the unit. I received a list of contractors from Laguna Woods permit department. I contacted Bobby at Elegant Home Improvement. He responded immediately and was available to give an estimate the following day. I did contact other contractors on the list, but received no response. Bobby and I discussed the remodel and he explained the Laguna Woods HOA and City permit process, which is lengthy. We then agreed to the terms and entered into a contact. Once he began this project he was responsive to any questions I posed. He is a general contractor, but has all of his own crew and does not sub contract any work (except hot mop), making him responsible for scheduling his own crew. His crew always showed up on time, were courteous and did their job. Although any remodel can be stressful, Bobby and his crew were pleasant to work with. My experience working with Bobby and his crew was very positive so I would definitely recommend Elegant Home Improvement.

The entire project was an extremely relaxed and collaborative experience. His assistants arrived prepared, on time, and were very polite. In short...they respect our home. My wife is a public school teacher and I am out of the home most of the day. We both felt comfortable allowing full access to our home while away. Paul made my wife's dream come true by creating an walk-in shower with heated floors. He also made my dream come true when he created an entertainment area with abundant area for thousands of record albums. The entire project ended in a lasting friendship.

Wow. Where do I start. Paul came out to do my kitchen and this was a big deal for us because you…read moreonly get one shot at it and we were super scared. This is where Paul comes in. First before I get started I have to say by far Paul is one of the nicest guys you will find out there. He is super honest and checks in often to see if your happy with the job. He has such a gift of creating things and reminds me of the lady on TV Devine designs but only he looks better. Back to the job. I told him what I wanted and what I invisoned my dream kitchen to be, and Paul made it happen. I get so many compliments on our kitchen even to the small details. I almost want to hide him from everyone because he is like a precious stone. Since then I have had a few more projects done including a major upgrade to the second floor which came out so luxurious I almost think I'm rich until reality kicks in and I check my pocket book. If Paul is available grab him quickly he is very busy and you won't regret it one bit. Thanks Paul for everything I am truly blessed to have met you.

I have no idea why a yelper here would rate this company so low. I have recommended Jason and his…read moreteam at 1st choice to several friends, family, and real estate agents. Who have all reached back to me stating how amazing his work is and how clean they work. I had two different places i lived at be remodeled by his team and he gave us a deadline for completion and met the deadline. He even came back once the job was completed to make sure we liked the final product and offered to change anything after the job was completed. To the lady Sandra S. who negatively rated this company shame shame shame. I would recommend and will continue to recommend Jason and 1st Choice to anyone who is in need of a remodel and or something small like installing fans. They are fast, professional, clean, and always on time. If you need a small or large job completed give 1st choice a call they will get you a great bid and always stick within budget.

If I could post a zero star I would. We had high hopes and confidence for this contractor who was…read more"highly recommended" and referred to by the "neighbor real estate agent" on our street. We did our due diligence by confirming there was a contractor's license with the state of CA. We were quickly disenchanted and dissatisfied with the contractor but tried to make the best of an unpleasant situation, thinking that we should give the contractor grace. This neighbor real estate agent asked me how it was going with her friend, the contractor. I told her he was abrasive, "very rough around the edges" and her foolish response was to make excuses for him defending that he would do anything for her. The experience and the attitude of the owner, Jason, to me and my husband was, at times, acrimonious, unpleasant, and caustic. The quality of the work appeared to be average (standard) but upon further inspection, the quality was substandard. We terminated the agreement of services at 60% complete. The monies that were given to the contractor were on a schedule at 70% complete. No matter, we absorbed the extra 10% so not to see him or his associates ever again. When I would ask questions about a detail or stage of construction, the reply would be,"You ask too many questions and you are too involved in the job. You do your job and I'll do mine." Funny, I thought I was the client. In fact, he did not do much except for sweeping. If I wanted dimmable lights or other items the response was "You don't need that". Of course he would say that. The lights he bought was not dimmable. If I questioned the alignment of something, the reply would be "Why do you care? You will be selling this home anyway." Or,"don't worry, we will take care of it at the end of the job." Reassurances, reassurances.... The "new" stainless steel sink that was installed in the kitchen was most likely a "second" because there were scratches alongside half of the left hand side of the sink when installed. When I asked about it, the response was that "all stainless steel sinks scratch". Although there were numerous inconsistencies, the final error was this "experienced" contractor intended to put in drywall at the base of the kitchen window (moisture point). This is mark of an inexperienced contractor! There were so many caustic, sarcastic, negative responses to my or my husband's questions that I could fill this page. In all, the work was shoddy, haphazard, and substandard. The contractor, along with his subcontractors, cut corners on most areas requested. My husband and I felt, by his actions and proof of work, that we were doing this contractor a favor. WE FELT THAT THIS CONTRACTOR JUST DID NOT CARE ABOUT OUR PROJECT. WE DID NOT TRUST HIM TO CONFIDENTLY CARRY THE PROJECT TO COMPLETION. After all, he repeatedly said that he did not do "handyman" work and proceeded to embellish the work that he did do - larger than our project. Guess our "little job" of refacing cabinets in the kitchen and bathrooms, and other items was "beneath" him. We felt he was doing us a favor because he knew the neighbor real estate agent very well. Since we have terminated the agreement we don't have to interact with the shitty contractor. The "neighbor real estate agent" contacted me after I terminated the agreement with her contractor friend. Her response was ridiculous: "Why didn't you let me know?" My reply? "I did not think you were his mother. After all, the agreement was between us and the contractor." There is much clarity now. Looking back, this "neighbor real estate agent" only was concerned about whether our relationship was amicable because she wants the listing of our home should we sell. She will not get the listing. Hard PASS. Inexperience begets inexperience. We have learned that hiring contractors from real estate agents can be dicey. After all, who does it ultimately benefit? As events unfolded, we have since hired another contractor with much more experience to redo the work that was done by that disappointing contractor. We realize that we we will be paying twice for the same work but that is one of life's lessons. Accidents happen. Hiring 1st Choice Construction Solutions was indeed an accident and a mistake. 1st Choice Construction Solutions should be named No Choice Construction Solutions.

We're a newbie when it comes to remodeling but Pete, our project manager started by giving us a…read morefair estimate for the work and listened to all of our concerns about the work throughout the project. He was straight-forward and to the point and most of all, a great communicator. He was friendly and made us feel very comfortable. He always made sure we were updated each day about what workers were coming and where we were in terms on progress. The city caused us some delays in attaining the city permit but Pete and this company helped us get through it. When we initially got estimates from other companies, we emphasized we wanted a city permit because we are tearing down a wall. The other companies gave us low-ball estimates because they felt a city permit wasn't necessary. Pete understood and worked with us and we got it. His final cost matched his estimate almost to the penny. We requested a few change orders and he was very accommodating. The workers were hard-working and made every attempt to not disturb us while we were in other parts of the house. I think it's important to note that Pete knew we had a budget for this job and made sure he stuck with his original estimate. We are retired folks so keeping to the budget means a lot. I think Pete knew this and made sure to make this happen. Thank you so much for the great job. We are very happy with our new kitchen and dining room. I've already recommended this company to a few of my friends. Take care and the best of luck.

They re-did our 2 bathrooms (from the 70's!) updated our master bedroom, tore out our whole house carpeting and laid beautiful composite flooring. They updated our family room, and modernized our red brick fireplace with beautiful large tiles and then painted the entire interior of the house. LOVE LOVE Mr Pete the project manager !!!! He is amazing. He guided us on what would work and not work and why. He never pushes you one way or another, just gives his advice if asked. I did SO MUCH research before I hired them so I felt really good going with these guys. A huge plus is they use specific guys for specific jobs. They have painters, plumbers, electricians etc. Believe it or not that is really important! Mr Pete is great at communicating and you can text him anytime he doesn't mind. I have referred many friends to them with ALL of my friends being very pleased with their service. One bit of advice, go into your remodel project with a realistic price range, its not cheap so you need to go into it knowing " GOOD WORK IS NOT CHEAP & CHEAP WORK IS USUALLY NOT GOOD ".
