Long overdue here... Tyler and team took care of our home in Glassell Park/Mt Washington area…read more Unfortunately at the top of the year when the crazy rains hit we had tons of water damage in our bedroom below an upper level deck. By the end of the investigation of problems we had every French door leading to a deck replaced and 50% of our hardwood floors. Tyler came highly recommended from our mediator and he wasn't wrong. Goodhand was very professional and kept us understanding what was happening throughout the whole process. They completely interfaced with our insurance company to get the budget for the build to the right level and would always go back to them when something new was discovered. To say there were road bumps is an understatement....what made us so happy was Goodhand would never settle for just OK. if they found an electrical problem when they opened a wall it absolutely had to be fixed. I know a lot of contracts who just sweep problems under the rug but not this team. Does the best come at a price? I think the answer is always yes. I'm sure you can find a cheaper alternative out there but if you want your project done correctly with professionalism this is your 1 stop shop period. Highly recommend!

We didn't think we'd ever need to hire a contractor. After all, the relator and seller of the flip…read morepromised everything was "brand new to the studs and only the finest quality!" But as multiple problems surfaced we found a highly recommended carpenter to help us out. He quickly determined that our dream house was a nightmare and that we would need more than a carpenter to fix it. He recommended the best and most ethical contractor he knew, Tyler, at GoodHands Builders. We had to wait a few weeks to get on Tyler's schedule, but once we met with him we were impressed with his creativity, knowledge, and honesty. He is a straight-shooter who carefully explains what work needs to be done and why. He worked with us to find the best solutions for our needs and budget. We gave him a list of over twenty items that needed fixing and he offered to charge us cost-plus since it would be so hard to estimate so many small jobs. That seemed very fair to us. Work began and we received electronic bills every two weeks with transparent details that aligned with what was happening at our house. GoodHands workers/crews/subcontractors were respectful of us and our property. They showed up on time, worked hard, and cleaned up daily when finished. We had two guys who worked at our house six days a week for over a year. I felt totally comfortable being alone with them and leaving them alone when I wasn't home. They demonstrated the same integrity that Tyler did. (They once returned a ten dollar bill they found in the street near where my son's car had been parked shortly after he had left.) In addition to the crews who were here, either Tyler (the owner) or Stephen (the project manager) stopped by daily to make sure everything was proceeding smoothly. When workers found problems (like a screw through the copper piping in the bathroom, walls that were supported by 1x2s instead of 2x4s, cracks in the foundation, showers that didn't drain because they were level instead of sloped, improper water proofing underneath the tile, concrete pavers that rose up causing tripping hazards because they were used to hide a decaying driveway, and a shear wall that wasn't) the crew communicated to management and together they worked to find a solution and only then would Tyler or Stephen bring it to my attention. So while each of these surprises cost us money to fix, by the time I was told about them there were already solutions for us to chose from and plans to fix it. At one point, we realized that we were going to have to tear out the entire primary bathroom and redo another shower because of the flipper's previous faulty work. We decided to borrow from the adjacent bedroom and make the bathroom larger and add a custom closet so we'd have something good to show for all of the time and money we spent on repairs. We discussed multiple layout options with Tyler and he would prepare drawings and estimated costs for each one. The end result is a truly stunning bath and walk-in closet. Everyone we know who has worked with a contractor says that it has cost them more time and money than they expected. At then end of their projects, they all talked about how much they hated their contractors. They were right--it did take more time and money than initially expected. Some of that was due to supply chain issues related to the pandemic, but most of it was related to the shoddy workmanship of the seller and the surprises he left us. None of it was due to the contractor. Before, during, and after the work was was done, we didn't hate our contractor, we felt incredibly grateful to have found him. He saved our house, our sanity, and our investment. When we found new problems we felt fortunate to have someone we trusted to take care of so many unexpected surprises. After the repairs and remodeling were done inside, we again hired GoodHands to remove a cheap plastic lattice and metal structure outside and replace it with a custom-designed cedar pergola stained to match the house. As I write this, we had an electrical problem in the kitchen and thought we needed a couple of outlets replaced. One of the crew checked it for us and found plastic pieces inside the disposal that tripped the GFI switch causing the outlets not to work. It was just a small example of how GoodHands continues to save us time and money. I don't know how they came up with the company name but with GoodHands Builders we really are in good hands!

The flooring team did an amazing job with the floors. My OCD could not find one mistake in their work in the bathroom.

After meeting with several contractors this summer and following up with references provided, I…read moredecided to go with Home Top Construction & Design for my three room addition. I initially met with the Project Manager, Yaron Cohen, who listened attentively to what I wanted and explained everything the addition would entail. He followed up on our first meeting with courtesy phone calls to answer any questions I had and to further clarify things I had forgotten and/or misunderstood. Prior to signing a contract with them, Eddie Nisali and Yaron both met with me to answer the additional questions I had come up with and explained every single detail of the process, time frame, and the payment schedule. They were both extremely thorough, very patient, and the cost for the three bedrooms was fair for all they were doing (raised foundation, three-room addition along with a walk-in closet and a pitched roof as well as demolishing a sunroom and a super thick 1970something huge slab of cement) and the materials they planned on using. I am a firm believer in "You get what you pay for." The demolition of my former sun room started in late August and the construction began in early September. We are now in November, and they are well on schedule despite a delay with the city and the amount of time it took to get our permit. The workers are here every single day before 7AM and work hard the entire time, except during their well-deserved lunch break. I am so impressed with the amount of work they do each day, their professionalism, and their commitment to excellence! Throughout the entire process, I have been in very close communication with Yaron Cohen. Any time I have a question, concern, or new idea he is ready to listen and explain what I need to know. Both he and Eddie are very easy to talk to, they're open, honest, and reliable. I am extremely happy with everything so far and look forward to updating this review once the project is complete. If you're considering any construction, do yourself a favor and include Home Top Construction on your list of fully licensed and insured contractors to interview.

They didn't put any support under this new expensive floor and installed it uneven what makes us to believe that they don't have a legal construction license like most of the small general constructions companies in the valley, they just use RMO which is paying other company to use their license. Don't use them in any way, there is no any control check from their management on their workers job , use a professional company for the specific job you need, ware in a process to dispute their payment and take them to small court claims.

Dealing with contractors is often not a great experience because you don't know who you can trust or who would do a good job, there are lot's of people after your money without actually solving your problem. But, I have to say, this is a guy you can absolutely trust with your project. He has such integrity from the little things I noticed throughout the project, and he always kept me up to date on progress.

So we decided to contact Howard for general contracting again. He guided us through the whole process. Howard was a total professional. He is patient, creative and so knowledgeable- and truly wants his client to be totally satisfied. I don't think anybody could ever say that planning a kitchen it's not stressful. However, I never got stressed with Howard! We met a number of times, often tweaking and modifying the plan and design of our new kitchen until both of us were confident we had everything we wanted. The entire process from start to finish was made to be as painless as possible. I am a bit over the top when it comes to details and Licensed Contractor Howard and project manager were extremely detail oriented, so we are "fit" They remove all old cabinets from the kitchen and particularly finished all demolition works very quickly. So, I would like to say that Howard Construction team completed such a very professional job with flooring! Our new hard wood floor looks amazing! Also our project included installation of dishwasher. Since we never had it on our kitchen they connected the machine to the pipes of the main water supply system. This part is more exited for me and probably for every women in the topic of having dishwasher in the kitchen. We were suggested by Howard that we could installed LED lights to make our kitchen even more modern. However, from the beginning our kitchen remodel project took only 3,5 weeks to complete it all. Can't say enough about design! They didn't just do a great job making our kitchen look beautiful, they and especially they were very fair with their rates and completed the project on time (these are some of the pain points with other contractors I have worked with). If you are looking for any home improvement or home remodeling contractors in LA, look no further. Thank you Howard! We will definitely be working together in future.

We were initially referred to Hector (owner) & his team by our pool builder (JM Pools) to do all the masonry, tile, decking, lighting, plants, etc. In the pool building world, there's so many horror stories about going over budget, prolonged waiting, expectations vs reality, etc. We didn't experience any of that working with Hector. Quite the opposite. We came in exactly on budget, finished earlier than expected, & we are absolutely thrilled with the results. I had a decent idea of what I wanted but Hector gave excellent suggestions on multiple design choices. I'm pretty picky when it comes to details & Hector never steered us wrong. His guys were always on time, very polite, never left work unfinished, & were genuinely talented at their craft.

Upon initial hiring for our pool remodel, I was assured the company knew how to remodel a pool, but…read moreI was wrong. They weren't able to remove tiles properly which resulted in it breaking and needing an entire retile. Then came the jacuzzi remote with the controller that was installed in the jacuzzi. After multiple times asking to not close the remote because we won't have access to the jets, the remote was still covered with tile surrounding the jacuzzi. Which I then had to purchase a separate remote for 800$ to buy myself which doesn't have the jet pool settings on it. They claim I have one year warranty with them, tell me why every week someone new comes to check the pool and do absolutely nothing. Same thing during the remodel. Rz Cost me another 300$ with a shed company who was working in the property at the same time because they couldn't get their scheduling in order. The tile guy they sent initially wasn't even up for the job. Cussing me out on camera for days until I finally asked for a new guy. A list of incompetent people nevertheless showed up each time. Fast forward to today,the company has duplicate accounts on yelp. once the reviews get out there they mark it closed permanently and start a new one. I have went ahead and reported them for that.
