We hired Jerry and Pacific Coast Stairs to redo our stairs. We had typical wooden stairs, balusters and rails. They came in and removed our old stairs and installed the new wrought iron balusters, wooden rails and stained to match our wooden floors. All in 2 1/2 days. We couldn't be happier with the finished result. Jerry is awesome and his crew super professional. They protected the contents of our home and cleaned up daily. I would give more than FIVE STARS if I could. I highly recommend Pacific Coast Stairs.

Jerry and his team at Pacific Coast Stairs were terrific. We needed a handrail to run opposite our banister for safety. Their work was professional, done in a timely manner, and done the way we requested. The banister is sturdy, well anchored and well stained and finished. We could not be happier. I highly recommend Pacific Coast Stairs without hesitation.

If I could give Brian at Pacific Coast Stairs 100 stars I would!!!! Definitely a 5 out of 5 home run experience and have no regrets going with Pacific Coast Stairs for our banister work. Brian actually came highly recommended by Eric at Venetian Flooring, who we went with when we chose to replace our outdated upstairs carpet. From the start, Brian was amazing to work with. He came and gave an in-person consultation and later provided a very very detailed quote. We sat on it for awhile because we always like to get 2-3 quotes from various contractors. Redoing banisters is not cheap or easy, but his quote was one of the most competitive and we felt good going with him because his quote was so detailed and covered every aspect of the job from the opening of the wall to the skirting, and even the exact dimensions of the rails. Then the week before work began, he emailed me with a clear breakdown of what the plan for each day. If you are also redoing flooring along with banisters this is what you can expect: 1. 1-2 days before floor install - Brian's team had to come to cut open the walls and cut the white risers. 2. Floor install 3. Then after floor install, Brian's team came back to install the banister and posts the first day, and paint and stain everything the second day. Brian even went above and beyond for me because I saw another inspiration post a few days before the actual banister install, and he was able to accommodate the change request! He didn't sound annoyed and was ever so patient and kind. I also made another change and went with white paint over the original plan to stain the banisters, and again he was able to work with me and make it happen without showing even a hint of frustration. He responded to texts and calls throughout the project and was always very responsive. It's a very good feeling knowing you can trust your contractor to give you his best because god knows we all know a horror contractor story or two. Reliable, responsive, hard working, patient, and kind with impeccable skill. What more can you ask for? Their work really speaks for itself as shown in my uploaded pictures. Really fantastic and quality work. I love love love how modern and clean my new banisters turned out. Opening up the walls was a good call because it really opened up this space. Thank you again Brian and team for everything!! You earned every bit of praise and recognition and I mean every word!!

I just had my handrail, newel posts, and balusters installed yesterday and I am so happy with how it turned out. Jerry was extremely helpful when I first reached out. He answered all my questions and helped guide me through the process of picking a design to match my Pinterest inspos. When it came time to installation day, Jerry and Brian were professional, prompt, and their workmanship was outstanding. They paid great attention to detail and ensured everything was perfectly aligned and secured despite a few hiccups due to the way my stairs were built by a different contractor. Their painters were also great and helped me pick the perfect stain color for the white oak handrails and newel posts to match my floors. Overall, I am over the moon with how my stairs turned out and would highly recommend Pacific Coast Stairs.

My builder original old set of stairs. Tried to improve these over the years but never right.

I had been looking to remodel my stairs for a while and had reached out to a few companies. I did not feel the other companies were a match for what I wanted. Simple but classic and quality. When I contacted Jerry at Pacific Coast Stairs he responded right away. Once he came out and saw my stair job I could tell he was the guy. He told he was weeks from being able to do the job. I felt it was worth the wait to get my stair remodel from his company. He knew exactly what I wanted and I did not have to go into much detail. The job he did was amazing! He has fairly quick (about a week). I love my new stairs!!' Subtle but such a showstopper- first thing one sees when they open my front door! Thank you thank you. I recommend 100%!

I hired Pacific Coast Stairs to build me a new stair handrail. From my initial contact to job completion Jerry and his team was great to work with. I spoke with a total of four companies, including Pacific Coast Stairs, and Jerry was the only one to come out, measure, and explain the work he'd be doing. This is one of the reasons why I ultimately decided to go with Jerry. At one point the project hit a little snag, which was out of Jerry's control, but he made sure to rectify the issue. Jerry is honest, trustworthy, and cares about the quality of his work. A true craftsman! I wouldn't hesitate to hire or recommend Pacific Coast Stairs for any future stair projects!

Brian and Jerry at Pacific Coast Stairs were wonderful to work with. I mean the end result speaks for itself, but the entire process was awesome! I was redoing the floors at the same time and had flooring delays due to the current supply chain issues, but Brian and team were flexible and communicative. Every day was spelled out for me and they were on time, set clear expectations and clean! I just have some paint touch ups remaining in one little spot and it will look like a whole new house!

Very impressed with the work done to my stair railings. The quality of work and every person that worked the job with Jerry was great and worked respectfully in our home. Had the wood balusters removed and replaced with wrought iron.And upper wood rail was sanded and stained to match the existing wood floor. The staining of the wood was done by a painting company that works with them. So pleased that it was all coordinated by Jerry and they worked seamlessly together in completing the job in the stated amount of time. I compared quotes with three other companies and the quote was competitive but a fair price when factoring in: Time in completing the job Reliability Quality I would use this company again and would recommend to friends and neighbors.

Look no further! Go with Pacific Coast Stairs! I provided Jerry with a couple of inspiration photos and he was able to execute flawlessly. I ran into a hiccup with my flooring contractor and Jerry dropped what he was doing and came to my house to help with the situation. He was able to find a resolution within minutes to keep my flooring contractor moving forward. Suffice to say, Jerry went above and beyond to make sure things turned out perfectly. The staircase install took 3 days from start to finish. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

First off, thanks to fellow Yelpers for the helpful reviews! I don't review often but Jerry & Brian are beyond deserving of this 5 star review. They are the antithesis of the standard contractor -- responsive, organized, reliable and most importantly, top notch craftsmanship. The finish on my new stairs is impeccable, everything is perfect and as promised. Also, if you're concerned about exposure during the pandemic, I can confirm that all the workers wore masks the entire time and the area was plastic'd off to other areas of the house to keep it isolated. They worked very efficiently spending no more time in the house than necessary. Thank you Jerry & Brian!!

Jerry & Brian came out today to upgrade my staircase railing. They arrived on time and completed the project efficiently and very professionally. I love how it turned out. Now, time for the hardwood floors.

before above after below

Jerry, Brian and Miguel were absolutely stellar! I had a concept I had designed for the stairs -- me not being a "stair designer", but aesthetically i knew exactly what i wanted. Jerry was VERY up front a the possibility that my vision might not be structurally possible. however, when it came down to the final finish it was even better than what i had designed but 100% true to the design intent. i couldn't be happier with their workmanship and work-ethic. Thanks to the whole crew! you guys did an outstanding job - i smile big every time i use our new staircase.

Jerry and his team are amazing! We went from quote to project in under a week. It's hard to find good reliable people but Pacific Coast Stairs has figured it out. They do really good work, they are respectful to your house, and they are reasonable. I highly recommend them. You won't be sorry!

Jerry and his team did an awesome job replacing a drywall railing with this beautiful baluster railing.

We were so satisfied with our master bathroom remodel by OSH we immediately put our kitchen remodel…read moreon the calendar. We just completed a 3 room remodel (kitchen/laundry/bathroom) and are super happy with the results. Permitted with our city. We had 2 walls removed to extend our galley kitchen, giving us more room and allowing the design to be more functional. Stripped down to the studs, insulation, fresh walls, tile flooring, custom cabinets, clean ceiling, electric, plumbing, the works. Sergio and his team helped us overcome a few hurdles and made our journey as smooth as possible. You know how some kids don't play well together? Well, OSH plays very well with others. Other who mess-up, other contractors, other's options. Sergio is always on your side for design, functionality and safety. When we had unique requests they did all the could to accommodate us. The team was always on time, friendly and professional. Actually they were very fun to work with. Thank you to The OSH Family. God bless.

Of all the many reviews I have written, this company would be at the very "top of all my ratings"!!…read more Sergio and OSH Construction is by far, my most pleased of services, particularly when it comes to home remodels! I discovered Sergio after I saw his incredible work/remodeling to the house next door to me. We arranged our first meeting whereby he bought his laptop, and provided numerous options and designs for my bathroom remodel. Fortunately, Sergio has great ideas and suggestions, making the process of decision making, ie. what materials to use, design options, etc. The process started right on cue, and the ETA for completion of 4-5 weeks was righty on the money! The guys that work for OSH are ALL exemplary, professional, prompt, and courteous! From the demolition guys, the carpenters, the electrician, the painter, the glass guys, I could not have asked for better! The thing that stands out for me, is the fact that these guys were consistently prompt, and did not skip a beat. Unlike most contractors, whereby days are missed, job gets delayed due to spreading themselves too thin with other jobs. None of that with Sergio, he was spot-on prompt with moving this job along as scheduled. My bathroom remodel also included a steam-shower installation, which took on extra diligence, but well worth it! This remodel has improved my home, as if it were a complete add-on to my house, considering I rarely used this guest bathroom (even though it is adjacent to my office). To all the Yelp audience reading this, trust me, you could not get a greater, more skilled and considerate Contractor than Sergio and OSH! I cannot recommend him enough, and I guarantee you will appreciate this review once you hire him. *** Take the time to review all of my photos that show the step-by-step process for this job! Also note that I used "single slab" porcelain, for my shower, versus individual tiling. This process was a much more challenging and labor intensive install, but well worth it, and Sergio's team pulled it off perfectly!!

We recently worked with OC Builders Group, (particularly Sade, Mike, and Casandra) to build a ~323…read moresq. ft. attached ADU, and we couldn't be happier with the results. From the initial planning phases to the final inspection, the entire team was professional, transparent, and incredibly skilled. Maximizing a smaller footprint (around 320+ sq. ft.) requires smart design, and they nailed it. The craftsmanship is excellent, though the project was delayed (primarily because of additional nuanced city requirements), their communication throughout the construction process kept us at ease. Though not everything went smoothly, they appropriately addressed and rectified any issues that popped up during the construction process. If you are looking to build an ADU in the OC area, save yourself the headache and go with this team. We gladly recommend OC Builders to family and friends. We were incredibly satisfied throughout the build process and of course the results are beautiful, and will definitely go with this team again should another project come up. They deliver high-quality work and true professionalism!

After meeting with several contractors, we selected OC Builders since they offered the complete…read morepackage, provided a thorough outline of what was going to be done, and seemed quite capable handling our scope of work. In short, we had a good overall experience working with them and are happy with the end product. We would definitely work with OC Builders again as well as recommend them to our friends and family. Our Scope of Work (Whole house renovation): Remodel kitchen, bathrooms, added a powder room, took down a couple of walls, replaced all hot/cold water lines, new gas line for the kitchen, replace AC ducts, remove asbestos popcorn ceiling, added storage area to garage, new insulation in the ceiling, upgraded the electrical panel, installed new high efficiency windows, replaced all doors, replaced sliding doors to French doors, new LVF and tile flooring, remodeled the staircase, new landscaping (pavers and privacy wall) in backyard and around the property, new rain drainage, new drip irrigation lines, and complete interior/exterior paint. Working with the team: Sade, our main point of contact, initiated the process and stayed with us throughout the whole project (even when he was on vacation). He was easy to work with, responsive, and offered helpful suggestions for areas that needed troubleshooting. Due to the age of the house and lapse in maintenance there were a few change orders that were required but at each step Sade provided options and explanations, but never gave a hard sell. The work crew led by Robert and Eric did a good job getting all the work done. Both were easy to work, took the time to explained what was going to be done and answered any questions. Both were also quick to return any texts and kept the work moving forward. Quality of Work: We are pleased with the quality of work and final product. When a mistake happened or when something wasn't done correctly, didn't look right, or did not turn out how we wanted the team would repair or replace the item with no fuss. They cared about making sure things were done correctly and to the satisfaction of the customer. The weekly walkthroughs really helped address any problems/concerns early before they became larger problems. What we would've liked done better: Schedule Communication/Coordination was lacking at times. At a couple of stages in the project there was a lack of clear communication on timing of when certain tasks would begin so that various materials would be on order. We had to chase down answers when the schedule indicated one thing but speaking with the crew gave a different answer. We brought up our concerns with Sade who passed it along to the rest of the team and the issue was resolved. Then as the renovation neared completion there was an outstanding item that needed to be addressed and special parts needed to be ordered however we weren't informed of the delay so our initial expectation of when we would be able to start moving in had to be adjusted. A heads up would've been appreciated and allowed us to better accommodate our own schedule. Closing: From initial meeting to final signoff the total project took almost exactly one year. This is quite reasonable considering the scope, approving the drawing plans, meeting with designer/suppliers, pulling permits, demolition, asbestos removal, and actual renovation work (including all city inspections). The interior and exterior of the house look great. The backyard and landscaping look brand new and greatly improved. The home essentially feels like it had a refresh back to day 1 except more modern, efficient, and welcoming. We look forward to enjoying it for many years. Despite some issues that came up we would hire OC Builders again.

So I called a few other roofers to come and bid on the project. Kenny Jr came out and quickly detected the issue and gave me a detailed project plan. I decided to go with KLC mostly because I found Kenny to be very reliable and knowledgeable. Him and his team worked with me through this complicated project that involved some wood repair by them, re-stuccoing by my contractor, and them coming back to finish and seal the roof. I had a lot of anxiety about the project but Kenny's diligence amd collaborative spirit made it all go so smoothly. The office (Elsa) is also great and very flexible, making sure that the project works well with my schedule. After the repair was done, we did some water test, but saw some water inside. Kenny came back to inspect and found that its not the roof leaking, but the chimney wall, which he fixed right then and there. We water tested again and no leak :) I have worked with a lot of contractors, but KLC is definitely top tier in terms of reliability, attention to details, flexibility, and diligence. I wish everyone was like them, but unfortunately thats far from truth. Thank you Kenny and I wish you all the best with your business. I will be sure to give you guys a call if any future repairs are needed.

Like many homeowners, I heavily rely on photos to make decisions, so I'm sharing my before-and-after pictures to help anyone looking for an honest team. QC went above and beyond. After tearing down the damaged wood, the owner, Kristof, discovered massive, hidden termite damage. Instead of ignoring it to finish quickly, he immediately stopped the project, informed me, and recommended I treat it first. Since I live in a condo, this gave me time to coordinate with my HOA management to get it treated properly before QC resumed. They installed proper insulation--which the previous contractor completely skipped years ago--and finished everything beautifully. To save a bit of money, I chose to handle the final coat of paint myself, but Kristof made sure everything was perfectly primed and ready for me. I initially reached out last year but was too indecisive to move forward; I'm so grateful Kristof was patient, didn't ignore my message when I finally followed up this past June, and completed the job beautifully.

What was once a tired and dated 2-bedroom house is now an adorably modern and expansive 1-bedroom, complete with spa-like bathroom and vaulted ceilings.

Unbelievably, the project came in on time and on budget.

One plumber could install a gas line only, another plumber could install a gas line and the gas cooktop but not the hood, and an appliance installation technician could not install the cooktop because he could not cut into the existing granite top. So I found Max of MRI Construction and Remodeling on Yelp, and he said that he could do the work within that original scope -- cooktop, hood, and gas line -- but that we should anticipate a backup plan in case the granite cracked during installation. Because we plan to live in this house for as long as possible, we decided to go through a full kitchen renovation. We had a prior experience with another general contractor who was impossible to get a hold of and who could not ensure the quality of the subcontractors he hired, and interviewed another general contractor who gave us the impression that we would have to engage with suppliers and subcontractors more than seemed feasible. We are happy to say that we just finished our kitchen renovation last week! And it was finished a week earlier than scheduled. We are thankful to Max and his team of subcontractors! We are really happy with the final kitchen, given how much we cook at home. And surprisingly the process was easy despite its size and time of 6 weeks. Max has the strengths and qualities you want for your construction projects: he's incredibly responsive, honest and communicative, and willing and able to troubleshoot issues that come up, as they invariably do, both small and large. He makes recommendations if you ask and gives you options for decisions for which there are too many options. He works with an amazing group of subcontractors who are experts in their craft. There was an exception with one subcontractor but Max was able to get that course-corrected so that the project finished strong. We appreciate his integrity and his willingness to ensure that the project meets your needs and expectations. We are grateful that we found Max on Yelp and for being able to work with him on a kitchen that we love and also within budget!! Thank you, Max and MRI Construction!!

An Architect's Review…read more As an architect, I work with contractors on a regular basis and needless to say, I was probably more particular than most when it came to choosing someone to work on my own home. Word of mouth and research led me to ARC / Armando... and I'm glad I went with him! From the beginning, communication was clear and straightforward. We went through the scope of work, my requirements and budget. I had some very basic drawings prepared to communicate my ideas. Along the way, Armando made suggestions to work with my requirements and budget. His pricing was reasonable and, most importantly, he completed the work within the budget we originally agreed upon. Anyone who has done a renovation before knows how easily costs can start creeping up once work begins. That was not my experience here. The scope and budget were established upfront and Armando stuck to them. And this was very important to me as I had no way of accommodating an increase in cost. The work was for a garage renovation, it included interior demo, replacement of an exterior window, addition of a new exterior door, vinyl wood flooring, drywall and installation of a new gypsum ceiling. Work progressed efficiently and to my expectations with no unnecessary delays. Communication throughout the project was excellent, and mostly Armando initiating the conversations to keep me updated. He was also very easy to work with on finishes and hardware. Some items I provided myself while others were sourced by him. Again, he made recommendations to work with my budget while not compromising on quality. Speaking of quality, the quality of the work was exceptional. It has now been over a year since the renovation was completed and everything still looks as good as the day it was finished. Absolutely zero complaints! His attention to detail was very much appreciated. He constantly made suggestions when he felt something could be improved. For example, he suggested a more random tile pattern for the vinyl floor instead of the more regular stagger I had proposed. We went with his suggestion and I am very pleased with it. Armando is knowledgeable, reliable and a pleasure to work with. Coming from someone who deals with contractors professionally all the time, I don't make that recommendation lightly. Definitely highly recommended and he will be my first call for future projects!

I knew enough about construction and engineering to seek professional input and reached out to Alpha Structural. They were pretty booked out, however when I explained the gravity of the problem (people in a home office below the tub area), Franchesca worked her magic and got me an appointment in 2 days. Damien showed up promptly at the 9 Am start time. We walked around the property while I explained my concern, and noted several other possible issues. Damien was extremely through, asking numerious questions and providing input and advice along the way. He took the time to explain causes for the different issues and was personable, professional and extremely helpful. Luckly for me, my problems traced back to normal settling, a recent solar panel and roofing job and normal aging. It's no wonder why Alpha has so many 5 star reviews- They absolutitly deserve every one of those. I only wish other businesses were as well run, and with such amazing people like Damien and Franchesca.

I bought a house that is 96 years old. For a house this age, it is in very good condition. It just…read moreneeds some TLC to reach its full potential. One issue, however, was that there was differential settling. This is where Alpha Structural comes in. I feel the entire process went well. Ken came out to survey the situation. We had a good conversation and came to consensus on the scope of work; and I feel I received a fair proposal. David Gonzalez (supervisor) was good at communicating once the job started. He provided an accurate timeline for Alpha's part of the rehab project (so that I could schedule subsequent contractors). When demolition revealed new things, I was informed. And he provided a good debrief when work was completed. Matteo and Dennis spent three days on the project. Whenever I visited the worksite, they were busy. I don't think people realize what is involved when re-leveling a house. These two demonstrated a lot of skilled work. I (and my neighbors) also appreciate the company's "clean as you go" process. Regardless of the work happening, the worksite was always neat. Going forward, I feel I have a good (new) baseline understanding of what is happening within my house.

The finished product (bathroom and living room) was well done and what we had envisioned when we hired Shorebreak construction. I would definitely hire them for future planned and unplanned work.

I met Chris when I reached out to a few contractors about the shower in our primary bathroom that…read morewas leaking, which had only been redone a few years before. Of everyone I spoke to, Chris took the time to thoroughly look at it, explain to me why it was leaking, present options for short and long term repairs, and was super communicative after. So when we finally decided to finish out our garage, we knew who to call. They're the best! We've had various projects done by contractors over the years and I've just always been searching for one that seems to genuinely care about doing it right, like it was their own home. That's Chris and his crew. They clearly explain what they're doing, what options you have, the pros and cons of each, and price differences. Super responsive and communicative and trustworthy. And they do a great job! We're really happy with our garage now. It actually feels like a nice living space now because they were very detailed with every step, ensuring the construction is solid and also looks nice. Can't recommend them enough! We've found our guy and will always work with him and his team moving forward.
