I'd I could give this a less than one star, I would. This contractor did work on a condo that I bought. Both the walls and the ceiling were not done to code, so they had to be redone. Since he had to redo the wall and ceiling, and didn't get paid to do redo the work, he didn't care what kind of job he did. He broke my closet door, scratched up my kitchen counters, and painted the walls 2 different colors. On top of that, he didn't pull the required permits and the city inspector came out to threaten me. The kitchen cabinets and microwave door don't even open all the way. He did a horrible job and refused to make it right. Avoid this contractor at all costs! read more

JR Builders - Sample in the kitchen where the walls were painted two different colors. - General Contractors Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I give Janik and team as many stars as there are in the sky. We had just come off of two horrific experiences with contractors. Janik came in and saved the day. He was there twice a day!! Made sure everything was perfect. Did our floors with Plank and Stone (brilliant one stop shop for everything tile or floor related !!) he designed two bathrooms from scratch that are nothing short of divine. He did our roof out paint our floors ... everything. My husband is a tough man to please and he was bowing down at the end of a wonderful experience. We literally miss him and the team. Can not recommend highly enough!!!!! read more

A perfectionist by nature, a skeptic from previous remodeling experiences, I cast a wide net for a contractor to install solid wood floors in my home. Having received conflicting "expert" information from several flooring companies, I had the good fortune to come across JR Builders - licensed, bonded, workman's comp. Janik, the owner, came over, spotted issues that other installers had missed. A good contractor is a good problem solver. A great contractor goes a step further - taking pride in his work and his word. Over the next two weeks, his crew (very polite, very professional) showed up on time, always cleaned the site at day's end. No surprises. No drama. No hidden charges. And the floor was installed to perfection. Unqualified thumbs up. If only all of life's tasks were this easy! read more

I was trying to find the right bar table for my new apartment, one that had the right rustic look, and would match with my other furniture. I looked at many table stores online, and also in commercial stores, but none really caught my attention. One day I was walking back from the Pacific Design Center, and I passed by this restaurant called Huckleberry's Place. I stopped in my tracks when I saw their unique looking tables, and knew I wanted this exact look for my place. The tables looked beautifully distressed, and were paired with a handsome metal base, which really made the restaurant look stylish. I dined in the restaurant and inquired where the tables came from. Of course, while dining, I examined the tables and saw that they were very well built and designed. The owner, Naomi came out and told me her husband Janik built all the tables, he pretty much personally built & designed the whole look and feel of the restaurant. Naomi graciously arranged for me to meet Janik, to discuss if a custom table could built for me. He explained in detail how he crafted the tables, and showed me videos on how he painted and burned them to make them look distressed, also drilling metal bolts on the side, which make a very unique rustic look. You could really see he is passionate for what he does. He got some table dimensions from me, agreed on a price, and noted how many days he would take to build me a table. He then delivered and installed the table within the agreed timetable himself. I cannot wait to share many tasty meals and funny stories on this special table. What a wonderful experience! I highly recommend Janik to anyone who is looking for quality, custom-built furniture, created by major talent with a very fair price. Thank you Janik! read more

Janik and his team were none the less such a pleasure to work with. They did the build out of my hair salon. He was so easy to work with. I can honestly say that this was probably one of the easiest contracting experiences I've ever had. The salon came out beautiful! Janik was able to finish it in the time he said he would. And there were no surprise costs during the process. I highly recommend him to anyone... I've had some bad experiences in the past and it was so refreshing to deal with someone so efficient and honest! He will definitely be doing my future locations! Thanks Janik!!! read more

JR Builders - Beautifully done by Janik's team! - General Contractors Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I honestly don't think too many people can say this about their contractor, but Janik is someone whom I consider as talented (has an eye for great design), honest, calm even under pressure, and extremely hard working. This is why I recently contracted with him again to remodel my and my fiancé's two-story, fixer upper home - and this is 3.5 years later, after he worked on my previous property which was completely renovated by JR Builders because it was flooded. And boy, Janik did not disappoint on our now dream home either! From selecting the flooring, tiles, counter tops, cabinets, bathroom/kitchen fixtures, and kitchen appliances, to designing our custom master closet and dining room (which both didn't previously exist), Janik gave us his valuable input and completed everything beautifully - and on time! Every time we have our friends and family members visit our home, they are so WOW'd by everything - and because of all this, my fiancé and I are forever grateful to Janik and without a doubt, HIGHLY recommend him. read more

Janik Roskovani and his team were fantastic in the complete bathroom remodel that they did for my Spanish-style house in the mid-city area (Spring 2018). They completely gutted it, moved pipes and fixtures, and installed everything (including working with glass/mirror people and stone cutters for my custom vanity top/back splash). He and his team built the custom vanity (I picked the general design, sink, and fixtures), as well as the metal window. He worked with me on my design and gave recommendations based on his experience with other projects and available materials. He was flexible to accommodate my preferences and schedule and even went with me to go tile shopping and marble slab shopping (in the Valley). His team was responsible, friendly, and trustworthy. My bathroom passed all phases of inspection easily, helped by the fact that the inspectors were familiar with Janik and his work. I am 100% happy and hope to work with him again on future projects at my place. I'm posting before [black tiles!! :-( ] and after [ :-) ] pics. You can totally see the difference. read more

Janick stands behind his work! Long after a job is completed if anything comes up that needs attention he is right there. Responsive and responsible. We hired him and his crew to remodel our high end condo and we are thrilled with the results. He is honest and decent and I highly recommend him! read more

Janik did a garage project where we turned a very big but basic 3 and a half car garage into a dream garage. This involved redoing the floors in a stunning finish, new garage doors, cabinets, hiding unsightly heaters and such and getting a tankless water heater- basically redoing the entire thing. Janik did the entire project for a fair price and not once complained about minor adjustments and changes. I always felt like he was concerned about how I felt and the quality of the work vs. his profit margin. We are very picky so there were a few things we wanted redone from OK to perfect and he redid them as we asked without issue- there was even one item that we complained about two years later and he came and fixed it- without charge. Janik is a good and honest person you can trust who wants to do good work and make his clients happy. read more

Stop! Listen! Read ! If you want to be robbed, cheated, lied to, lose money, and have unfinished work, In the slowest possible manner, then Janik Roskovani is your dude, and Design Edge Builders provides the torture. What makes it worse, is that I knew Janik, for years, from my gym. My 86 year old Mother and 84 year old Father trusted me when I told them about Janik. He met with my Mother. He talked a big game. We hired him to do a very simple job. The second story at our home needed to be finished. Flooring, Paint, Fireplace facelift, a butcher block table top, a shower glass divider, some hanging lights , and to connect the bath tub. The job was to take 3 to 4 weeks at most. The job was started towards the end of March 2016. Almost one year later, in January Janik and his ever changing crew just left. They also left about 20 bags of trash along the side of the house. For the first couple weeks Janik would show up every other day. Then he stopped. Leaving 2 or more often 1 worker. He quoted a price of 35,000. 3 to 4 weeks. We gave him a 6,000. Before he started. For "Supplies. He chose a cheap pine flooring. I came by one day, and his worker was drilling screws into the floor, because they were starting to raise. He said he was going to cover the screws with some wood putty. When he originally talked with my Mother about the flooring,he said he was going to personally sand, stain and make the floors look rustic. This never happened. Simply cheap Pine. Two women came to paint. They lasted one day. The stone fireplace came out well, but it was one of his rare hard workers. Although they covered the gas switch with stone. The glass shower divider was never purchased and the work never done. As the months went by, and we kept giving Janik checks for supplies , I asked him why he could not finish the job. I asked him why it was taking so long. I said , how about October. Can we finish by Halloween. He said yes. Did not happen. Then I thought surely, by Thanksgiving. A nice Thanksgiving. No. He could not finish. Ok. By Christmas. No. Did not happen. New Year. No. Could not handle it. One of the worst days ever was the day I came to the house and there was a bag of THC " Gummy Bears". I said " Mom. Where did you get this. She told me Janik had given them to her. He had seen the multiple bottles of medication my Mother had , and I guess he felt he needed to play Doctor and give her. T. H. C "Gummy Bears". This really should cost him his license. If he even has one. THC can cause the heartbeat to increase. Eating just one could have possibly caused a stroke or heart attack. After he was paid 28,000 dollars and not finished, he had the gall to tell me his "accountant " said he needed to get the remaining 7,000 to finish the job. Which would come to the 35,000. We kept asking. Janik where the butcher block table top was. He always said he was building it at his factory. Finally one day he was cutting a piece of wood in the driveway. This was the butcher block table, that he was supposedly working on in his "factory " It was thin and cheap. It split down the middle, in two weeks. As did the dresser top by the sink. We refused to pay the remaining 7,000. We had already been ripped off. I met with Janik 3 weeks ago, and asked him if he could just reimburse us for the butcher block table top and dresser. He said no. He said he would come in and put a granite top on. Nobody asked for that. This nightmare by Janik Roskovani. This 3 week job, that went almost a year, has caused aging and pain to elderly, good people. Run, don't walk. From the Janik Roskovani and Design Edge Builders. I'm sure the name will change again. As was stated by one of the last reviews. Janik is a Con man and will cheat, and rob you blind. Pictures and Checks can back this review read more

I am a realtor with Sotheby's International Realty in Beverly Hills for over a decade where my clients are buying and selling luxury real estate. On several occasions my clients ask for referrals of contractors. Janik is on my preferred list and on every occasion that my clients choose Design Edge Builders they are so pleased with the work done from small renovations to large projects. I continue to feel confident to refer my clients when I hear and see how their completion dates come in ahead of schedule and within budget with high quality workmanship. Thank you Janik! read more

Over the years, we've used several builders and contractors and I've never felt compelled to write a Yelp review before. It always seemed that we were doomed to work with flighty, over-promising, under-delivering bums - no matter how great they seemed during pre-project meetings! Janik Roskovani from JR Builders is an absolute exception. He is simply THE BEST. His work is creative, professional, and quick. We are talking about a genuine good guy. You'll quickly understand that working with him and his A+ team is not like anything you've experienced before. He does what he says he's going to do, he gets it done when promised and for the price you've agreed upon. He also provides tasteful design advice and economical ideas throughout your project. We completed major renovation work with Janik's team in 2018 and couldn't be happier. Working with them was easy. Because of this, I've already recommended him to everyone I know. Trust me, this is the team you want handling all of your projects. read more

My husband and I are familiar with the character and quality of JR Builders. We have visited several of the homes Janik renovated and we are impressed with his work.

I will definitely use this company with confidence read more

As a professional commercial and residential interior designer, I am always on the lookout for great design and good people to work with. I first met Janik at a charming café in West Hollywood. We got to talking, and I discovered that he is a contractor and designed and built that café. Having an actual example of his creativity and craftsmanship that I could experience, I suggested him for a residential remodel project that I was about to get started on. My clients, who looked at multiple bids from other contractors as well, decided to work with Design Edge. Janik and his team were extremely professional and timely. When any issue came up which needed some creative solution, Janik always contacted me to discuss. I have worked with other contractors who have made creative decisions on their own, sometimes ruining my design aesthetic. Janik and his crew never did that. We talked about everything, so that the end result would be as I and my clients wanted. The end result was so good that my project will be published! I have referred Design Edge Builders for several other jobs, knowing that they would do a great job at a fair price. I highly recommend them. read more

I am amazed that my review from two years ago is no longer listed here. Hmmph. I will be the second person to go after Janik's contractors bond. He asked for too much more money upfront, then never purchased half the materials he said he would buy with that money. our contract was to be completed in one month. After 4 1/2,months, and he wasn't finished, I fired him. He didn't put any moisture barrier in the shower. On a 10 floor condo that could have been disastrous. He ruined another friend of mine's garage redo, i am only saying this because this man was destructive not constructive in building. He still owes me $24,000 from me reporting him to Contractor's Licensing Board, a decision which was found in my favor. I don't know where these positive reviews came from, maybe a few are true, but I am highly doubting it. Go ahead, take a chance, you will get burned. Oh and the review from Naomi is actually from his wife. read more

Janik and his team are easy and reliable to work with. It is not easy to find a responsible contractor, builder and a designer as a one person in case of Janik.
