That alone gave us a lot of peace of mind. Aldo, the structural assessor, was especially helpful throughout the process--patient with our many questions, clear in his communication, and thorough. Erick was consistently responsive as things came up. On site, Gilberto did excellent work with the team and provided steady, capable support through the build.

What more is there to say? There's too much money, too much unknown when you're renovating your house, and trust is the most valuable asset you can have in a contractor. Trust that they are working doggedly for you. Trust that the work is great. Trust you are getting way more than your money's worth. Well, we trust Art and Extreme Home Addition intrinsically. You should too.

I specifically requested a civil engineer to look at the drainage situation at our house, along with the waterproofing at our exterior doors.

In my case, however, they sent a structural engineer and he didn't have a whole lot to say and was apparently unable to comment with any level of detail about the concerns I had regarding drainage or waterproofing. It was honestly just an $1100 waste of time.

We had a major renovation in my condominium complex in Hermosa Beach In 2024/25. We were undergoing…read morea $3 million renovation when it was discovered that we had serious structural issues in the rear portion of our building. Our contractor recommended KCE/Matrix engineering company with whom he had lengthy experience. This countermanded the advice of our architect, who wanted to choose his own architect named YT Engineering in Palos Verdes. It turned out that YT engineering didn't fully understand the issue, & proposed that we'd have to go through a seismic retrofit process in order to secure a permit. We decided to call in KCE/Matrix engineering and they provided a rather simple process to solve the problem and not over complicate the issue. Not only did it solve the specific structural engineering issue we encountered, but additionally, KCE/matrix engineering calculations, and felt that we might be able to solve some other seismic issues at a minimal cost based upon their findings. Their extra work saved us untold amounts of money, complications, time and future frustrations!!! This Isn't an exaggeration, it's a fact! As impressed as I was with the work that they did, it was backed up by the tone, the conversations and the professionalism with which this organization operated. I give particular credit to David Paiva at KCE/Matrix engineering: he was a pleasure to deal with, he was always calm, measured and followed through with his promises. Everything I asked, for within reason he provided without any problems or headaches. David Paiva and KCE/Matrix engineering were a pleasure to work with.

But now I'm very happy that Sam decided to take on the job and develop the structural calculations and drawings for removing a load bearing and shear wall at my Condo. The Project started in September 2025 with initial submittal of permit application package to the City. It went into construction about four (4) weeks ago and was successfully completed today (5/8). During the process, we developed trust for each other. I contacted Sam numerous times for questions, problems and consultations and he was always responsive. He and my architect friend worked together to develop the initial design but had to modify it to overcome a major obstacle that came up during the construction. He came over for construction observations and gave instructions to the contractor how to strap the beams together for maintaining structural integrity of loading and shearing. His fees were much lower than another builder whom I also got a bid from, and his approach to things was much simpler and yet conservative to that from the other firm. I told Sam, whether it is good or bad, I don't usually do reviews for others. But for him, I will do one. I'm thankful to have a great team of Sam (the engineer), my architect friend, and excellent construction crew to help me complete this project.

Sam is easy to work with, responsive and explains things very well - even to someone like me who doesn't have an engineering or construction background. He gave me a time frame that he needed to complete the drawings and stuck to it, which I really appreciate. He communicated well with my contractor and considered different options for how to approach the structural challenges. I've worked with other structural engineers over the years, and I found Sam to be the most professional. I've had engineers disappear mid-project, deliver weeks/months after they said they would, and/or bill more than initially agreed upon - not Sam. He does what he says. Definitely would use him again.

I got about five bids for my whole-house remodel, and Creative Innovation Developers stood out for…read moretheir great communication and solid references. Their pricing was comparable to others, but the ability to visit their in-progress projects gave me confidence. I'm very very particular, and while no remodel is perfect, Creative worked to bring my vision to life. My advice: plan everything in detail beforehand--or hire a designer. To save costs, I handled all the design myself while working full-time, which was highly stressful. Having everything mapped out helps avoid delays, last-minute changes, or compromising on your vision. Golan and Jordan were fantastic--Golan handled planning and communication, and Jordan ensured everything stayed on track. They always responded to my texts in a reasonable amount of time. Their tile crew was exceptional (I often bumped into them because they worked long hours and weekends to complete my home and were really nice and respectful people), and they tiled nearly my entire house beautifully (we're talking 2000 sq ft of flooring, 3 bathrooms, and a fireplace). I appreciated that Creative didn't nickel and dime me for small changes, and when a gas leak was discovered (due to careless cabinetry work), they fixed it--and more (we found more leaks during the repairs)--without extra charges. Despite delays beyond their control, they completed the full renovation in about six months--from pulling permits to final inspection. Major work included a new kitchen, three bathrooms, tile flooring throughout, interior paint, a new electrical panel, and whole-house LED recessed lighting. Even after the job was done, they returned to fix small issues without hesitation. That kind of follow-up is rare in a world full of disappearing contractors. I would recommend Creative for any remodeling project, big or small.
