It's not often that I want a 6th Star, but Noma deserves it! Let me start by saying that I've done…read more4 new construction houses, so I'm familiar with dealing with contractors, punch lists, etc. Noma was exemplary and fantastic to work with from start to finish. They are professional, courteous, and extremely knowledgeable. As with any construction project, nothing is perfect, but Noma handled all of the issues that were encountered in stride and with seemingly no regard for their bottom line. I've never worked with a contractor that happily and eagerly fixed every single punch list item without question. It was clear that their ultimate goal was to make sure we were happy with the work they did. And we couldn't be more excited about our bathrooms. The project was made even more difficult by being in a high-rise condominium, something they handled very well working with the HOA and providing all the necessary documentation. For reference, we took both the primary and the guest bathroom down to the studs, replaced the tub in the primary bathroom with a large shower and a linen closet. They are not the cheapest quote that you will get, but they also won't be the most expensive, and I will put their work against any other contractor in San Diego, and argue that the pride in their work is second to none. I'm not ready to even begin thinking about doing the kitchen, but if and when we're ready, we will definitely be calling them.

When life gives you lemons, Noma (Mike, Yuki & the entire crew) to the rescue!…read more After an unexpected water intrusion, I found myself having to renovate my kitchen. I shopped around for quotes and was given some pretty outrageous estimates. So glad I stumbled upon Noma! The quality of work paired with the value was unbeatable. Materials were top-notch too, from the soft-close cabinets to the luxury vinyl plank flooring. They definitely kept quality, functionality, and durability in mind. I'll admit, I was a little hesitant at first, especially with their office being in a residential area. But Mike (the owner) was down-to-earth, easygoing, straightforward, knowledgeable, and very understanding, especially when it came to working around my work schedule. I still remember the first day he came over to take measurements, and he immediately showed me his contractor's license without me even having to ask. Little things like that go a long way! He also looked out for my best interests, even adding a water shut-off valve for my fridge hookup. Yuki (the project manager) was also great with keeping me updated and making sure my needs were met. I especially appreciated how involved they were throughout the entire process. No detail was overlooked, and everything came together with my preferences in mind! The project took about 3 months for my little condo kitchen, which I quickly learned to be just part of the process. My only feedback would be to perhaps work with a different insurance claim adjuster or referral partner for clients needing help with supplemental claims. I initially worked with someone they recommended, but unfortunately, that person eventually ghosted me and stopped responding to my texts. I understand this may be outside Noma's control, but having a more reliable referral would definitely make the process smoother for future clients. Otherwise, I'd absolutely work with Noma again for any future projects and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to family and friends!

I couldn't be happier with the results of my recent remodel project! The entire experience was…read moreseamless from start to finish, thanks to an incredibly talented and professional team. My designer, Mary Jennings, listened closely to my vision and translated it into a beautiful, functional layout that exceeded my expectations. Once construction began, Project Manager Marcel Moore kept everything running like clockwork, ensuring the timeline stayed on track and keeping me updated every step of the way. The craftsmanship is top-tier. Construction Tech Isaias Sanchez laid a flawless foundation for the work, and Finish Carpenter Ben Hawes executed the detailed woodwork with absolute precision--his attention to detail is truly impressive. Additionally, Javier Madrigal, the electrician, was efficient, neat, and made sure all the lighting and electrical elements were perfectly placed and up to code. If you want a team that delivers high-quality work, communicates well, and respects your home, I highly recommend Mary, Marcel, Isaias, Ben, and Javier at Remodel Works Kitchen and Bath. I am already planning for my next project, and they will be who I choose. Thank you all so much!

UPDATE -- IN RESPONSE TO THE OWNER'S PUBLIC COMMENTS…read more George, your response unfortunately reinforces one of my central concerns about Remodel Works: rather than addressing legitimate complaints professionally, you appear more interested in arguing with customers and questioning their credibility. Let's begin with your claim that you called me and I didn't answer. That is categorically false. YOU personally assured me someone would call by the end of the day. I was specifically waiting for that call, which never came. That's precisely why I texted the project manager shortly after 5 p.m. Portraying me as someone who ignored a call and then demanded answers is simply untrue. Instead of acknowledging that missed commitment, you sent a condescending video criticizing me for contacting your employee after hours. You didn't introduce yourself or identify your position. I initially had no idea who was addressing me. Regarding the video, yes, I shortened it. I shared the portion specifically relevant to your manner of communicating with a customer. I never represented it as the entire video or a complete account of our remodeling dispute. The excerpt accurately reflects your words and tone. Suggesting I edited it to deceive people is speculation about my motives, not fact. Regarding signed drawings, they don't erase our detailed conversations and instructions. We specifically discussed clear glass and having the shower door open in EXACTLY the same location as before the original glass was removed. We even showed your project manager photographs of a shower at another property to clarify what we wanted. Nevertheless, your company installed a different, awkward configuration, with hinges positioned near the center of a large glass section. Other experienced contractors, including the professionals who corrected it, raised concerns about that arrangement and whether the glass was adequately supported. This wasn't simply buyer's remorse. The installation did not reflect what we expressly requested. And what about the cabinets? They arrived incorrectly and were installed incorrectly. Nobody from your company appeared to recognize the problem until I pointed it out. Where was the quality control? Despite these issues, your company would only correct the glass installation if we paid full retail price. We ultimately hired another contractor who corrected it for substantially LESS than you proposed charging us. You mention that nearly two years have passed. What does that have to do with the validity of our experience? Is a bathroom remodel only expected to last a year or two? Homeowners invest significant money expecting years of quality and durability. Time doesn't erase what happened. Your comments about my other reviews and honesty are equally irrelevant to the workmanship and service issues. And your sarcastic reference to my "Positive Vibes" shirt was especially disappointing. Having a positive outlook doesn't mean accepting poor workmanship, broken commitments, or disrespectful treatment. To me, positivity includes accountability, honesty, and respect. Mistakes happen in construction. What matters is how a company responds and whether it stands behind its work. In our experience, Remodel Works failed on both counts. Regardless of how you choose to respond, I believe anyone who reads this exchange can see why I described your approach as defensive and argumentative. Rather than acknowledge the problems and make them right, you've focused on attacking my credibility and insisting you're correct. I stand by my account, and I trust prospective customers to judge both the work described and your response for themselves.

Everybody who came into my house was respectful of me, my family, and my property. The quality of work was exactly what I had hoped for. It was done quickly and competently.

Review Update (2026)…read more I am updating my original 5-star review from a few years ago. At the time, we were very happy with our kitchen remodel and the overall experience working with Creative Design & Build. The project turned out beautifully, which is why I originally left such a positive review. Over the years, however, I noticed that one section of the flooring felt slightly soft when walking on it. At first, it did not seem serious, so we continued to live with it. Recently, the problem became worse and a section of the floor began to noticeably sink when stepped on and eventually a few edges of the flooring broke. At that point, I became concerned that it could become a safety issue. Because we still had plenty of spare flooring boards left over from the project, I attempted to replace the affected board myself. Unfortunately, I was unable to get the new board to fit correctly due to the locking system, and I could not restore the original board either. I then contacted Creative Design & Build for assistance. One reason I reached out was because our original project manager, Oded, had told us that if we ever had any issues, we should contact the company. I left a voicemail and later received a return call from a staff member. After I explained the situation, she said she would check with management and get back to me. A few days later, I received a text message stating that the warranty had expired and that no repairs would be covered. This was disappointing because I had never been informed that there was a four-year warranty period, nor was I able to find any reference to such a limitation in our contract. When I asked for details regarding the warranty and whether they could recommend someone to repair the issue, I did not receive any further response. There were two other issues relating to electrical and plumbing, however we decided to live with that until we had a major problem we needed fixing. I still appreciate the work that was done on our remodel years ago, and our kitchen remains a space we enjoy. However, I have been disappointed by the lack of follow-up and support when a problem arose. My advice to future customers is to make sure all warranty terms, coverage details, and expiration dates are clearly documented and understood before signing a contract.

Very happy with the quality of work performed by Champion Restoration. Paola is the real deal,…read moreand what you see is what you get with no hard sales pitches or fanciful promises. She's very meticulous, organized & conscientious about providing high quality work. An upstairs bathroom flood required us to go through the insurance water damage restoration process for a flooded bathroom and kitchen. We met Paola during the flood mitigation process, and right from the start, I was impressed by her professionalism & experience. On the first day we met, she assessed the scope of work required in both the bathroom & kitchen, and also noted some damage in the hallway that I didn't see. She did a very thorough accounting, and then returned the following morning to meet with the insurance adjuster to answer the adjuster's questions. Not only did I think her pricing was fair, but my insurance company considered her scope of work to be an excellent value. Paola manages teams of skilled labor, including tile flooring, drywall experts, painters, cabinet builders & general contractors. She also stayed in regular communication with me, dotting all the i's and crossing all the t's throughout the entire process. I was also pretty happy that she stayed on top of her timeline estimate, and the entire project started April 26 and completed June 12. There were zero surprises, and I'm thrilled with the high quality of work both upstairs & downstairs. The bathroom never looked better, and the kitchen is absolutely gorgeous. My new kitchen cabinet construction is actually better than original, with solid wood shelving to replace the sagging contractors grade shelves original to the house. The painter also used premium quality urethane alkyd paint for a durable & smooth finish. 100% transparency - I'm not a professional reviewer & didn't receive any money, discounts or benefits for posting this review. I'm just a satisfied customer who had an unfortunate bathroom flood that turned into a beautiful new bathroom & gorgeous kitchen. Very satisfied with the service & workmanship and highly recommend Paola and her team at Champion Restoration.

We went with Forever Builders, who also did some demo for us when we first moved in. Among other things, we 1) stripped and replaced the floor, 2) demoed the built-in tub and replaced it with a soaking tub, 3) replaced the vanity countertops, 4) installed a chandelier and sconces, and 5) installed a custom shower door. Steve was our project manager for the entire project, which took 3-4 weeks. We are so incredibly pleased with the result, and just as happy with the service and professionalism we received from Steve and his team. Steve managed every aspect of this complex project flawlessly, stopped by frequently to check progress and QC each phase of work, and was consistently responsive and professional. He took my calls on nights and weekends, and I always felt taken care of and valued as an important customer--such a rare occurrence these days. The craftsmanship was flawless too. I am a detail-oriented person and tend to demand perfection, and Forever Builders exceeded my expectations. As a bonus, they also installed a floating vanity for me in a secondary bathroom, as a complimentary part of the project. Since then, I have also asked Steve and Forever Builders to patch up a huge portion of ceiling drywall at my mom's house that was screwed up by another company, and they did an amazing job with that as well. You will not find a more consistently exceptional company. I'm a customer for life.

I'm kind of floored that there aren't more reviews like ours. So they either pay Yelp or we've been…read moreREALLY unlucky. We hired them to do an addition on our home in BayHo in late 2022 (you've probably seen it on their socials) Our first project manager Nathan was horrible. He never communicated and when he did he'd ensure something would get done, only for it to never materialize. Thankfully we were assigned to Ben when I said I was just cancelling the project all together. The company pushed us hard to hire their "engineer/architect" and BOY was that a mistake. The plans were horrific, the project was delayed and it wasn't until I reported him to the licensing authority and threatened litigation that he responded to the city's request for changes. We found out later that multiple requests we'd made for the plans (pocket doors, arched doorways, etc) were never included and thus couldn't be included without starting over. At this point our project was already delayed over three months. Once work did begin we were hopeful but the project was wrought with issues. One being a MASSIVE leak during construction into the current structure of our home. We had a newborn baby and were forced to move into a tiny part of our home during this. The entire side of the house was left open and exposed for weeks which was incredibly unsafe. The project ended up being completed and almost immediately had issues (not to mention a number of frustrating things during the build I don't even have space to discuss). Grout was disintegrating, cracks were forming all along the drywall, we'd notice issues with the flooring and tiling in the bathroom. Then during the storm in San Diego in 2023 the ENTIRE addition began to leak. Water was POURING in at every point it joined the existing structure. It's now been a month and still the damage hasn't been repaired. Work was supposed to begin 9/26 after two random men I'd never met showed up and walked into my bedroom through an exteriowithout knocking (on 9/22) to "check it out." At 1pm after contacting Dor (owner) and Ben (old project manager) we were told they'd "come tomorrow." So the entire day we took off to be here to supervise the moving of our very expensive light colored furniture I was point have every bit of communication from this company so please spare me the gaslighting response. Then- in early 2025 our sliding door began leaking. We contacted them and they said it was just a "caulking issue." They came and put silicone all around the door and left it at that. They didn't repaint or fix any of the interior damage from the leak. At the end of 2025 our drain in the shower stopped working. A plumber found no obstruction but said the drain wasn't installed properly, so we have to leave the drain cover off to use the shower. Absent tearing the shower out, there's no fix. Fast forward to today- what do you know? Another leak! This time, during the most recent rain, water began coming in where the addition meets the living room. No way I trust them to be honest, so I hired a licensed roofer. He came out and said where the addition meets the original home wasn't actually sealed (and assumed a roofer didn't actually do the work). They apparently put silicone gel down where the two roofs meet, instead of firing the roof and melting it together. We'll be seeking reimbursement for this repair or eventually filing a claim in small claims court. If it gets to that I'll probably be asking to have all the shoddy work repaired. I could never in good conscience recommend this company now. I'm disgusted by the lack of communication and poor workmanship. I honestly don't even trust them to repair their work at this point.
