Starting a remodel on our older home seemed like a daunting task. After meeting with a few…read morecontractors in our area, we reached out to Apex Remodeling by chance and are so glad we did. From our first meeting with Miriam, we knew her and her team were going to be a great fit. From our first consultation, design meetings, and supply purchases, all before the construction started felt very streamlined and smooth. Miriam was able to provide us with realistic and ACCURATE timelines for completion. Our project from start to finish was completed in the time she provided even with added work. With the age of our home and the large overhaul we wanted to complete between load bearing wall removal, electrical upgrades, plumbing upgrades, new kitchen, and a new bathroom Miriam was also very transparent with us on potential things we might run into, so we wouldn't be surprised. There were only two additional things we ran into that weren't in the original scope of work, and through this process Miriam presented us with solutions rather than problems, along with choices of how to proceed. The additional work was still completed in our timeline, and within our budget. Miriam was an amazing Project Manager, and all the crew with Apex remodeling treated our home as their own. Living in the home during such a large project was made so much easier by how the team paid attention to detail, and kept the mess and materials contained and organized. My family is in complete love with how the Apex team made the vision we had for our home come to life. I would recommend Miriam and Apex remodeling to anyone who wants a quality remodel, an honest transparent consulting team, and a team that will make you feel good entrusting your home too. We look forward to working with them on more projects in the future. -Below you will find some before and after pics of our home

Antone and his team at NS General Contractors exceeded my expectations. First, their proposal and…read moredescription of the course of works was clear and augmented by photographs and video. Easy to understand and appreciate. They expertly tackled a dry rot nightmare on the back of our house - a nightmare which we though had been remedied by another contractor years ago. Turns out that contractor made matter worse. Antone and crew were able to identify the sources of water intrusion - roof, gutter, a rotted window, wood siding, you name it. It took some time chasing down the dry rot, but the end result is that this side of the house looks as good as the time of original construction. The crew was punctual, neat and tidy, coordinated well with other trades, and they were fair in their pricing. All in all, a solid performance. I have referred NS Contractors to a work colleague, and will invites them back to address some fix-it items on the front of the house.

We worked with Jacob's company, S&L Remodeling in Walnut Creek, and from the very beginning his…read moreentire team made us feel like our project truly mattered. Even though this wasn't the largest remodel for their company, they treated us as if it were a million‑dollar renovation -- with care, respect, and exceptional attention to detail. Jacob was an outstanding owner to work with. He approved everything quickly, stayed flexible, and worked with us on a payment schedule that made the process smooth and stress‑free. His communication was clear, and he made sure we always felt supported throughout the remodel. From the project manager to the foreman, to the crew and subcontractors, everyone showed up ready to deliver. Jacob's team moved fast -- gutting the kitchen, updating the wiring, and completing an impressive amount of work within the first four days. The craftsmanship was excellent, and the workflow was organized and efficient. Jacob was involved with our supplier who handled all the materials, including our new cabinets and kitchen counters. They kept everything on schedule and made the selection process easy. There was no constant back‑and‑forth, no need for us to oversee every detail. The team stayed on top of the project from beginning to end, keeping the schedule tight and the quality consistently high. Even with the limited funds we had to work with, they transformed our old, dark kitchen into a bright, modern, beautifully updated space that is completely new. The results exceeded our expectations. We're truly grateful for the professionalism, consistency, and quality of work from S&L Remodeling. Jacob's leadership and his team's dedication made the entire experience exceptional. Highly recommend.

After collecting several quotes for a bathroom remodel, this company provided the most reasonably priced and thorough quote. After completing the project, we realized we received a real bargain as the company was reliable, did quality work, and communicated with us throughout the project. The bathroom remodel was for my elderly father, who recently became wheelchair-bound. It had been almost 40 years since the last remodel. Multiple leaks from the shower walls and toilet required replacing the subfloor along with adding a curbless shower. The project manager, Alejandra, kept me informed throughout. Rosalio, the company's contractor, was reliable. He showed up every day on time and followed my detailed layout design to the letter. His attention to detail was greatly appreciated.

I hired them more than three years ago and I paid for the full scope of work they recommended. My bedroom and closet have continued to leak every time it rains. I have given GMBC numerous attempts to fix the leak over the past 3 years, but the leaking persists. Two other companies have determined that GMBC did not do the work required to fix the leak and used improper materials. Moishe is the manager and refuses to resolve the issue. Horrible work. Horrible experience. Do Not Use them unless you just want to waste money!

A Nightmare Experience with GMBC: Poor Craftsmanship and Unreliable Service…read more Hiring GMBC for our renovation project was a terrible decision. The experience was a complete nightmare, with their shoddy craftsmanship and unreliable service leaving me deeply dissatisfied. We worked with Moshe and had numerous conversations about the quality of work but he did not care. The project initially estimated to take three months, dragged on for over a year. Here are the major issues I encountered: 1. Poor Quality Craftsmanship: The work done by GMBC was riddled with errors and executed in a sloppy manner. The foreman was rarely present, and when he was, he consistently overpromised and underdelivered. Their lack of skill and attention to detail was evident in poor flooring install, uneven paint jobs, and a complete disregard for precision. A few examples of their subpar workmanship, but by no means comprehensive: -A small deck featuring cracked spindles/railing. The wood was so discolored that we paid them more just to try to cover it up, with the end result looking even worse. -We paid them thousands to level our floor and install flooring, but the end result was warped and bouncy. After we pointed it out, they suggested drilling holes all over our new floors and trying to glue everything down. -A sliding shower door installation that was unlevel and featured a half inch gap all the way around. It was so bad that we couldn't even shower in the room without the bathroom filling with water. There were several issues such as drill marks and permanent marker drawn all over from where they made errors trying to install the first time. -We paid them to install soundproofing on a shared wall with our neighbor. Moshe himself noticed there was absolutely no change when he came over to check on the things, and could hear our neighbor's music as if it was in the same room. There was no suggestion on how to resolve or make the situation right on their end. We ended up paying thousands with absolutely no result. 2. Unreliable and Unprofessional Crew: The crew assigned to my project displayed consistent lateness and unprofessional behavior. The foreman was rarely around and the crew was often on break, resulting in wasted time. Their lack of professionalism extended to a disregard for my property and basic safety protocols. They installed a stacked washer and dryer without the provided stacking kit and when we were told it was ready for use, the washer ended up walking itself out of the laundry room and into a wall, further damaging the unit as well as the brand new floors we had installed. GMBC's reluctance to take responsibility for their mistakes and their laborers' inability to perform as professionals further added to my frustration. GMBC did eventually reimburse me for the dryer. 3. Missed Deadlines and Extended Delays: Despite GMBC's promises of efficiency, the project suffered from poor planning and an inability to adhere to timelines. The extensions of the project disrupted my daily routine and caused unnecessary delays. Inspections were missed multiple times, leading to wasted time and frustrated inspectors. I brought this up to Moshe and he told me the guy was in his car for one of the inspections and didn't see the inspector ring my doorbell. How is that acceptable? 4. Dishonest Practices: GMBC exhibited a lack of honesty and integrity throughout the project. They lied about placing an order for a specific closet door, stating that the one we had requested was out of stock but when we called the store ourselves, they had 5. GMBC just didn't want to admit that they had made a mistake. We had a similar scenario with the original shower door that they had installed where a subcontractor they sent to replace the original door stated that they had installed it incorrectly. Their poor record-keeping was evident when they failed to provide complete receipts for reimbursements. Additionally, they attempted to charge me for something I had already paid for. 5. Lack of Design Sense: They failed to deliver work of which they could be proud and omitted showcasing it on their website or social media. The solutions provided for an eyesore firewall and poorly done concrete work in the driveway were unsatisfactory. Their lack of effort to find acceptable options and costs left me disappointed and seeking help from other contractors. On top of everything, I was pregnant when the project started and then had a newborn when they were still working at the house. It was an absolute nightmare and so stressful. Moshe's attempts to fix things later were too late, and the inconvenience wasn't worth it. Eli got involved towards the end and seemed reasonable when it came to deducting items on the poor work that was done. My husband ended up fixing a number of things after they completed the job. Overall, my experience with GMBC was a disaster. Their lack of professionalism and poor workmanship make them a company to avoid.

2nd Review Addendum:…read more Miri, S&I owner, reached out to me to resolve the issues mention in the original review. She offered to discuss the issues and have workers come out to make things right. By this time, but I had encountered the issues mentioned in the first review addendum. I don't want her employees or day laborers anywhere on my property. After providing her with an advance copy of the first review addendum, Miri responded with a reimbursement offer of $3,000. I accepted the reimbursement. I still regret hiring S&I to work on my property. I recommend you do you extra due diligence before hiring them. I don't trust their high-star rating.
