Victor (project manager/foreman) has everything in control, day to day, and does not forget a thing.  We interviewed four other contractors, and they couldn't come up with the right floorplan for our kitchen. We did not want to settle.  David designed our kitchen and more than doubled the size.  No problem moving plumbing or switching to gas from electric and finding a better home for our fridge. Our primary bathroom was completely gutted to add a stand-alone tub, and Superb designed a walk-in closet and additional hall closet taking a foot from the adjoining room, which you would never be able to tell. He has a crew for different sets of workmanship, and they know exactly what to do in a strategic time frame. They do not waste any time and clean up the projects beautifully every day.  We had completely gutted our kitchen and primary bathroom. Had the whole house rewired, new plumbing, new LED lights throughout the house, all new flooring on the first floor, and refinished all flooring upstairs.   Superb builders accommodated every wishlist we had.  Their workmanship is precise, clean and the crew are very helpful and pleasant to work with from beginning to end.   Our biggest appreciation is that David and Victor picked up their phones or returned texts right away 100%. They passed every inspection every time, and they have done the work beyond the requirements. We are so happy to know that all the work has been done properly and safely. We will always call Superb builders for all of our future projects.  I trust that they will get the job done right, and David can help design or find a beautiful solution to any difficult home layout you may have.  They do not just remodel a space, they can build a perfect new space. Thank you David, Victor and all the wonderful crew at Superb builders!

Superb builders remodeled our kitchen in January 2020. Joe helped me to select the materials and…read moredesign, and he was very knowledgeable. I wouldn't have been able to come up with such a wonderful design without his advices. Additionally, the cabinet vendor he recommended had great prices and they assisted with designing the kitchen layout by providing computer drawn images using software. This saved a lot of time in the planning stage. Joe was our primary point of contact from start to finish, which made things go smoothly. During project execution, Victor was an invaluable point of contact for discussing and explaining technical details about our options, especially when inevitable complications arose. When we demo'd our old kitchen we found a major code violation that was concealed and they helped us correct the issue. It cost us extra but looking back I'm happy we worked with an ethically sound contractor who does things correctly and follows the city code. Those things can be huge problems later if you try to cut corners! Overall we had a great experience with Superb Builders and would definitely hire them again. They are very professional and do great work. We ended up with our dream kitchen for less than market average prices in our area!

PLEASE READ: I wish I had listened to Craig A., Senior…read moreProject Manager at Realty Builders (not a salesman -- a true professional), when I was planning my kitchen and bathroom remodel. I spoke with six GCs. Most were cheaper -- roughly $20k less for the kitchen, $10k less for the bathroom. At the time, it looked like savings. It wasn't. Craig A. explained the importance of: * Proper wall blocking for cabinets and hood venting * Replacing old copper hot and cold lines while walls were open * Installing flooring correctly wall-to-wall under cabinets * Pulling permits for inspections and proper workmanship Others focused on cost. Permits weren't necessary, they said. Now that the remodel is "finished," the shortcuts are painfully clear: hood vent vibrations, leaking copper lines, uneven cabinets. To fix it, cabinets, drywall, flooring, and some finishes must be removed and replaced, and some items can't even be reused. The fix is now $43,538 -- far more than the $30k I thought I was saving. Craig wasn't trying to sell me extras. He was protecting my investment. If you meet him, you'll see he's genuine, professional, and honest. I was too focused on the upfront price to appreciate the value of his advice. Lesson learned: a remodel can look beautiful on the surface, but what matters most is what's behind the walls. Cutting corners isn't savings -- it's deferred expense. I'm actually kicking myself because I took everyone off Angie's List and considered only the other lower bids. Craig was a referral from a close friend who told me upfront, "They may be a little more expensive, but you'll be happy in the long run." They were right. I hope others can learn from my experience. When we're ready for our backyard deck, we'll be calling Craig A. and Realty Builders.

We also sometimes realizes permit drawings for other designers who would rather not go through the challenges of assemble drawings and legal documents required by cities to acquire building permits. Such was the case was the when I received a phone call. "I'm Christopher Gates and I'm working on the O. project in San Francisco and I think we're missing a real opportunity." Chris went on to explain that the upper and lower levels of the project were connected by a set of non conforming stairs, which were grandfathered in by not touching them, but were't the most enjoyable to navigate. The previous designer had elected not to touch those stairs. But Chris suggested something extraordinary: "Perhaps we can carve out some space from the adjacent closet, a bathroom, and a light well, and make a set of beautiful stairs with a skylight above that unifies the home right when you walk through the front door. Are you interested in checking it out?" As one who wants my clients to really love their new home, I was a little embarrassed that I'd miss the opportunity myself. But even more, I was super grateful for Chris's suggestion as well as his palpable enthusiasm, especially when so many architects and builders are willing just to gloss over it just to get it done quickly. "Hell yes!" I said. We scheduled a time to meet, trouble shot the challenges, and over the next 10 days, co-created an amazing solution together. Yesterday, nearly nine months since that first meeting, I had the chance to check it out the (nearly) finished project. Chris and his fantastic team had totally transformed the place, from a chopped up, piecemeal layout to a spacious, light-filled home with all the essential amenities a family needs.

The bid we received from Bay Remodels was not the least expensive, but based on our interview and subsequent follow up conversations I felt confident that we would be able to communicate with Arsen in a straightforward way and was impressed that during that process, he returned calls and showed up when he said he would. Fortunately, it was that way through the whole project. It was a difficult project with many unforeseen structural issues. Arsen and his project manager, Emilio, were responsive to every question and I always got immediate call backs or texts. Arsen has an obvious passion for craftsmanship and design and takes a real interest in assuring that the outcome is aesthetically and structurally sound. He went above and beyond to make sure things looked right even if they weren't specified on the plan. We have contractors in our immediate family that we would naturally rely on if they were in Northern California, but at the end of the project we felt like Arsen and Emilio looked after us like family. Our house is beautiful and we are thankful that we went with our gut feeling.
