We hired Dan to completely remodel our bathroom and a few other small items around the house and…read morecould not be happier with the result. He was courteous, on time, fair in his pricing, and meticulous in his work. He was more than happy to work with us through difficult portions of the remodel (it is a very old house) and develop achievable solutions. I could trust his assessment of conditions and recommendations on how to move forward. We had many requests throughout the process and he was able to implement them all. I would, and will, hire Dan again for anything around the house and have recommended him to many of my friends. It is tough to find a good contractor in the Bay area these days and Dan is it.

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.

Antone worked with us to define an ambitious but deliverable scope of work including a new roof, exterior painting, refinishing wood floors, skim-coating and painting the entire interior, and replacing the kitchen floor.

Yaniv managed a major renovation on our home that included expanding the second floor, remodeling…read morethe kitchen, permitting the 'iffy' spaces, and updating several other areas. It was a complicated project with neighborhood hearings, permits, inspections, and a seemingly endless number of decisions, and he did a great job helping us navigate all of it. We didn't use an architect or a designer, meaning we relied entirely on Yaniv's expertise to brainstorm layout and design ideas. He was a great sounding board, incredibly clear in his communication, and an expert at navigating the complex web of California building codes and city permits. He made it explicitly clear what decisions were required on our end and guided us through what I thought was an overwhelming process. We also appreciated how accommodating he was while we were dealing with construction during the pandemic with a baby. We had to move out temporarily for the demo portion, but Yaniv worked hard to accommodate our schedule so we could move back in sooner rather than later. Any large construction project is going to have its hiccups, but my wife and I are still very happy with the finished product years later. I'd absolutely recommend Yaniv to anyone looking for someone knowledgeable, practical, and easy to work with.

I've stumbled on a fabulous contractor!…read more Our home is 8 years old, and we shouldn't have had the water leakage we had. The shower in the second bath had been leaking, causing extensive damage. We had to completely replace the bathroom due to water infiltration, as well as some sheetrock in the dining room and the second bedroom. When I was in my 20s, I would have repaired myself, but now I'm in a wheelchair and decisively, not 20!! I was referred to a contractor from Concord named Yaniv Taragano, of Taragano Design and Build, and that was the best referral ever! We also had other projects in mind: replace the kitchen sink with a copper one, replace the under-cabinet lights, install two ceiling fans, add "can lights" to the main bedroom, add a pot-filler, replace the bathtub, add a door to the laundry room, and re-paint the interior. Yaniv saved us a bunch of money throughout the project. For instance, he color-matched the wall paint exactly, so only a touch-up was necessary to achieve beautiful walls! He's bonded and insured, and most importantly, he and his people are very careful. I also checked out his license, and there was not a single blemish. He was very timely, and he or his foreman came every day on time. His workers were very cognizant that we still lived in the house and carefully cleaned up every day. If you need, call Yaniv Taragano at (925) 388-6365, or visit his website: https://www.taraganoremodeling.com/ On top of everything else, he and his lovely wife Katie are just genuinely nice people!

We were in an absolutely desperate situation when we found Chris and his team. Our home renovation…read morehad turned into a nightmare -- our previous contractor left our house completely gutted, uninhabitable, and in total disarray. We had lost money, time, and hope. Then, out of nowhere, we came across Chris, and from the very first conversation, he showed compassion, honesty, and genuine care. He couldn't believe what had happened to us and made it his mission to help us get our home and our peace of mind back. Chris and his crew started immediately and went above and beyond in every possible way. Since we were living in the home during construction, he built us a makeshift kitchen, secured areas without windows, and made sure we were comfortable and safe while the remodel was underway. His workmanship and attention to detail were outstanding -- he not only fulfilled our plans but added thoughtful extras, like a beautiful half bath we hadn't even imagined could fit. He stayed within our budget, communicated clearly, and treated our home as if it were his own. Beyond his skill as a contractor, Chris is an exceptional interior designer. His vision and creativity transformed our space into something truly stunning. His team was professional, respectful, and a pleasure to have around every day. After such a terrible experience before, finding Chris felt like a miracle. We can't recommend him and his company highly enough -- they didn't just rebuild our house, they restored our trust and made it a home again.

From the very first design conversation to the finishing details, they were professional, responsive, and easy to work with.

My previous contractor had disappeared after demo (no calls, no texts for over a month, left their tools behind). Dan put together a detailed estimate and took the time to explain and talk through different options for the things that needed to be done. Throughout the project, he was prompt, communicative, and fair. Sterling and Phil came in and tackled all the quirks of a 100 year old house with experience and humor. When there were additional challenges (previous homeowner had screwed sheetrock over plaster in some places so the walls and ceiling were uneven, counters were not square or level, filled mismatched molding joints with putty) - they took the time to fix the old work and redo it correctly. They worked efficiently, paid attention to detail, and everything turned out beautifully. All three were professional, kind, and respectful throughout. I will definitely call on them in the future.

Workers come on time and work hard to finish the project, also they pay attention to most of the details. Several things that made me took off 1 star: 1. The window Dan asked me to purchase is different style than all my other windows and not sure why it took the team to install 1 window per day! 2. There are 2 times that I tried to provide concern or feedback on the project and Dan yelled at me in a disrespectful manner, basically he told me to step out of his way and he had the right to do whatever he want because he runs the project. This made me pretty unhappy and felt disrespected as a homeowner. His office manager is much nicer to talk to and maybe she communicated with Dan and it did not happen again. I would give 3.5 stars if Yelp allows, the overall experience is good except for some frustrating moments.

Mark did a fantastic job on our bathroom and was an absolute joy to work with. Having Mark do our…read morebathroom made us realize that we had never truly worked with a real general contractor in the past -- and we've done quite a few large projects. All of his sub contractors were absolute professionals and masters in their trades. I can't think of any unexpected change orders and he came up with a ton of great design calls along the way. The project was done faster than expected as well, which is pretty much non existent in this industry.

Mark completed a major remodel on our home on budget and a month ahead of schedule. He added a…read moreprimary suite with full bath, expanded a living room, expanded our kitchen with full remodel (new cabinets and skylights), added a patio, put in new floors throughout the interior, put in new HVAC, and painted all the interior and exterior. All told, there was an additional 600 sq ft added to our home. Mark was timely with estimates and priced fairly. His crew worked hard and interacted with our family respectfully. He recommended excellent vendors. His subcontractors were extremely professional and timely as well. Whenever we hit a surprise (there weren't many, which is saying something given the size of the job), Mark handled it calmly and confidently. He has continued to be responsive even after completing the job. He has an eye for architectural details and made helpful recommendations to our design. Remodeling a home requires hundreds of decisions and he navigated us through them, never overloading us, but pacing them out and keeping us on a reasonable schedule. He showed his project managing skills both with how he organized his subs and with how he kept us on task. His direct and honest communication impressed us greatly. We have recommended Mark to several friends and will continue to do so.
