We got quotes from several pool remodeling companies and Smart Swim came in right in the middle. We are strong believers on "you get what you pay for," and opted to go with them even though they were not the cheapest. From beginning to end, the guys at Smart Swim were easy to work with and truly wanted our project to come out great. After 30 years, it was time for our pool to have a remodel! Through the remodel, it was uncovered that we had many severe leaks, down to the rebar that needed to be fixed in some areas. Sam was great at making sure we understood the severity and that we were okay with any new costs that needed to be added. Not only did they do our pool, but also installed turf by the pool area and put pavers all around the pool and yard area. We also got the new gray gate installed from them as well, to replace the wooden fence in the yard (between the pool). **Noting that the perimeter wall/wooden top was painted black and sanded/stained by a different company. We truly appreciate their hard work and even when we had an immediate death in the family during their time working on our project, they were very respectful and gave us some space as needed.

WORST COMPANY you could ever hope to find. If there were a reality show for the most incompetent…read moreconstruction company with the lowest ethical business practices, Vitoli would win by a landslide. Speaking of landslides, the infinity spa they built on our hill was done incorrectly so needs to be rebuilt so as to not send chlorinated water rushing down the mountain with each use. For now, we have to limit to two people despite its 10 person capacity. Yeah, and that's just the beginning. We had a $220,000 budget to build a dream yard in an estimated 6 months, but they built all of the retaining walls incorrectly so add an 18-month delay as we sorted out problems with permitting, during which time much of the existing part of the yard was damaged. They forgot to run a water line to the sink and ice maker in the outdoor kitchen rendering them useless, put the incorrectly built walls in the wrong place entirely, built a fence that fell down...for a more complete list please see attached photos. When we hired them, they promised a foreman would be on site at all times but in fact, they had a project manager on site only about 10% of the time and I'm being generous. We loved the workers and I would wake up early each morning to bake breakfast treats and brew coffee for them, however they would often come to us in confusion for direction without a foreman, but we had a language barrier even my best intentions couldn't overcome and grave mistakes were made. Each attempt at demanding said foreman only yielded increasingly angry calls from the owner, who went so far as to call us racists, sometimes with threats of leaving the project or suing us. We paid in full as projects were completed as per our contract, all $220K, but were not refunded for the many parts done incorrectly, and were instead made promises that simply weren't kept. With no less than $50K left to do, we finally kicked them off of our property when they started refusing to complete items -- we simply decided to remove the toxicity from our lives. Particularly evil was their pool equipment installer Bernardo who we caught in multiple lies and who was wont to covering his high level of incompetence by accusing us of "sabotaging our own project." Absolutely ludicrous, yes, but the owner went with it, I suppose it was easier than dealing with more wretched errors on their part. Meanwhile, if there was a corner that could be cut, they found it, and always at our expense. When we first were shut down by the county, I looked here on Yelp and to my dismay, found many negative reviews. They have since disappeared somehow so before writing my review, I reached out to YELP corporate, who assured me mine would remain. As I try to enjoy my unfinished dream yard, it occurs to me that all I can do at this point is protect as many people as I can from falling victim to companies such as Vitoli. Had I been smarter I would have asked for references or gone with a company recommended to me. Beware The Home Mag as they don't vet their advertisers at all, they don't even require proof that photos used are actually work done by said company, they need nothing but the ad copy and money to qualify and so I would argue that the companies that advertise in The Home Mag are ones whose work doesn't merit a good referral and so they advertise instead. Vitoli often graces their cover, which makes sense... The owner promised to fix it all, said he'd take care of us and we believed him to be sincere. But now all I have left is an unfinished yard and no funds to finish it. Shameful, but all true. I believe I know exactly what the response to this review will be, but I will endure it for the sake of helping others. Please note my other reviews, as they are a healthy mix of good and bad -- that is what I understand the purpose of Yelp to be.

They transformed the outside of our home, and it now looks and feels like a magazine spread! Just today, I received compliments from two separate strangers on the front yard. We constantly get compliments on the appearance of our home. Samantha was the landscape architect who created the design, and it was amazing to see her lay out the vision. She saved us space in ways I definitely couldn't have conceived of on my own. She said the remodel would be like doubling our living space, and she was right! Scott oversaw the construction from start to finish. He was very attentive and obviously cared about and was fully invested in the success of the project. He had an expertise with plants and gave great guidance to give me the colors I wanted in plants that would work for our space and the SoCal heat. I am constantly smiling at the plants Scott suggested. They are thriving, and I wouldn't change a thing. The crew was respectful, clean and did a beautiful job. It was a long project, but Pacific Outdoor kept their initial timeline. Our main reason for going with Pacific Outdoor was that they were a one-stop shop. They could do everything. They truly delivered, and it is better than we ever imagined! It was so easy to look at their choices and select what we wanted. They had a wide variety of design choices. We replaced most of the grass in the back with their pavers and used the same pavers for our driveway. They look fantastic. We have a neighbor that had Pacific Outdoor build them a firepit that they love. We received great guidance and attention from the full team all along the way. They didn't quit until the project was finished to our satisfaction. As I float in our beautiful pool and eat tangerines off of my new tree, I feel like a queen and couldn't be happier after choosing Pacific Outdoor! Our family highly recommends them!

I wasted thousands of dollars having them do a terrible job on my pool deck, and had to have Pacific rip out their work and fix it.

The entire project took about nine months, with roughly half that time spent navigating Los Angeles County's permitting and approval process.

Luis and his crew removed our old pool in a neighborhood where heavy equipment wasn't an option, so most of the work had to be done by hand. Their skill, professionalism, and attention to detail were impressive. Once demolition was complete, a talented team of craftsmen brought our vision to life. They poured new concrete, built a beautiful stacked-stone retaining wall, and installed stunning travertine pavers throughout the patio. The quality of their workmanship is outstanding. Our project manager, Jorge, kept both the demolition and construction phases running smoothly. Like any major project, we encountered a few minor challenges, but every issue was resolved quickly and professionally by Jorge or John Durso, the company's general manager. Special thanks as well to Max, our electrician, and Brian, the quality control supervisor and all-around problem solver, for their dedication and attention to detail. The final transformation is incredible. What was once an aging pool is now a beautiful, inviting outdoor living space where our family loves spending time together.

True, they're not that rare in LA, but they were planted by my parents and hold much sentimental value. Being able to see them grow and do well has me count his services as a solid ROI alone. Gardening is an art and a science. We're so grateful to have found a dedicated pro who has been able to provide us solutions for all things plant-related here in LA!

I interviewed 3 contractors before deciding on My Cali Builders. I was referred by a kitchen designer I met while wandering into a store looking at kitchen cabinets. I asked her for a contractor referral if she knew of a good one. She told me she does most of her jobs with My Cali Builders. All the contractors I interviewed were good and I felt competent and would do a good job but I felt a connection with Danny Raz, the owner. I felt during a few interviews he listened to me and assured me he would be with me every step of the way since I had never done a full complete remodel on my condo before. I believed him. It was a 5 month remodel because I had to even out my slanted flooring. Danny did not disappoint me at all. He is a perfectionist as I am. Every decision I had to make he explained the pros and cons whereby I could make an informed decision about what I wanted. He always showed up on time, he never canceled, and all of his workmen were respectful, knowledgeable, worked clean, and I was more than satisfied. I love my condo now. It is stunning! The finished product exceeded my expectations. I have heard all the nightmare stories of contractors. I got lucky in meeting Danny Raz at My Cali Builders and without hesitation I would recommend him above all others. I am thrilled! read more

We absolutely love how our backyard turned out! The new overhang and outdoor living area has completely changed how we use the space. We spend so much more time outside now, and it has become one of our favorite parts of the house. We also entertain quite a bit, and the new space allows us to comfortably host a large group of family and friends. Almost everyone who comes over comments on how great it looks and how much the overhang transformed the backyard. The entire project was a great experience. Everything was completed on time and on budget, communication was excellent, and he was consistently on-site supervising his team and making sure everything was being done properly. He was genuinely a pleasure to work with from beginning to end.

Danny was professional, responsive and very nice. He maintained communication throughout the project. His crew are professional and respectful. We were quoted with a 4 to 6 week timeline but they were finished way before that. My patio looks amazing and I couldn't be happier. read more

Eric suggested pouring a large concrete patio with a walkway connecting it to the side of the house, and wow, it completely changed the backyard.

They were professional, hardworking, reliable, and communicative throughout the entire process. The team maintained a clean and organized job site and executed the work with great attention to detail. Scope of Work: Demo existing concrete that was being uplifted by the trees rootball and re-poured concrete while expanding the size of the trees planter. As a landscape designer, it's essential to partner with top-notch contractors, and Miguel's team exceeded expectations. Both my client and I were extremely pleased with the quality of their work and the way the project was handled from beginning to end. I highly recommend Miguel and MAD Concrete to anyone looking for quality concrete work. I'll definitely be partnering with Miguel again on future projects. - Patrick Moreno, Landridge Designs

From tricky issues like what to do with our water heater to some unexpected stucco challenges, Miguel came up with solutions that were both practical and innovative. Beyond his skills, Miguel is just a genuinely great guy. At one point, he paused our meeting to take a call from his five-year-old on an Apple Watch (rad dad moment!). Great value for the quote he gave us too. All in all, I wouldn't hesitate to hire him again. If you're looking for someone who knows their stuff and brings a little personality to the job, Miguel's your guy!

We talked about pricing for about 15 minutes, and the work started the very next day. Jose's pricing was very reasonable, especially considering that he specializes exclusively in concrete work. On top of his excellent communication, his work ethic and professionalism really stood out. Before starting, he provided a clear and detailed estimate, along with his license number, insurance, and workers' compensation information. The work also comes with a 10-year warranty, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. The entire project was completed within 5 days, exactly as promised in the contract. On top of that, Jose even helped us install a gazebo at no extra charge, which was a huge and much-appreciated bonus.

This has been by far my greatest experience working with any Contractor in my lifetime. Solomon delivered on all of his promises and now I have a wonderful studio to work in. At the onset of the project I was told the job would be completed in less than 20 days and it only took 6 days for them to complete!. The team was very organized and Solomon's communication skills are beyond reproach. He and his team are very professional, knowledgeable and hard working. Solomon stayed on target with his quote and there were no changes in cost throughout. His quote was right on target with what I'd hoped to pay for this project. Extremely fair and right in my budget. I would recommend J & I Home Design to anyone looking for a very honest and qualified builder. A++ in all aspects of my project!

Honest My wife found…read moreSolomon on Yelp. This will be long because I think it's important to get an insight into our journey. Solomon's commitment, professional insight, meticulous attention, and hands on approach during the planning and execution has been invaluable to us. While he will execute your vision, he would also provide his own insight to help us think through any considerations as to why or why we shouldn't do something. Whether it was just not worth the cost, add value to our home/lifestyle or a find potential alternative/balance. The statement of work he provides is fully laid out and he explains line by line to ensure we're on the same page. Payments were scheduled for specific milestones. This was our first major remodel endeavor, so quite an exciting and scary process considering the potential investment and living adjustment during the process. We initially reached out to Solomon regarding adding square footage to our home. A 4' bump forward, adding an additional bedroom, and bumping the back of our house for a new kitchen. He was very clear up front of the overall process, timeline and expectations to ensure we knew the order of sequence of how the project would roll out. He spent a good 6 months with us during the planning and design phase, from engineering, blueprinting and permitting. We also visited some of his previous customers and talked to his customers and they all shared the same sentiment of his approach and quality of work. While we did not end up moving forward with the remodel, as we decided to purchase a new home, we did however need to get our home rent ready. This included a new roof, new gutters, stucco, paint exterior, retaining planter wall, new porch and backyard deck. Without question we stuck with Solomon and he was more than happy to work with us, while a smaller scope of work it was still quite a lot of moving parts. All while also re-leveling and tiling my mother in law's balcony. It's important to understand that any significant project requires a partnership and open communication. Bumps are expected but the open communication we had was all it took to make sure both parties were on the same page. It's also important to note that it's also my responsibility as the customer to be available and respond in a timely manner to ensure his teams stayed the course as key decision points. The end result was exactly as we expected. While we continue to search for a new house, we are now leveraging Solomon's expertise and he's assisting us in vetting houses that we may be interested in to ensure it's a sound investment I without a doubt highly recommend Solomon for any project you may have in the pipeline.
