Daniel Lugo Construction recently remodeled our bathrooms, and the results exceeded our…read moreexpectations. We received bids from three highly rated contractors, and Daniel's combination of price, experience, and professionalism made him the clear choice that we're very glad we made. The craftsmanship was exceptional across every aspect of the project--from the tile work and plumbing to the electrical and glass installation. The team worked efficiently, stayed on schedule, and delivered beautiful results at a very competitive price. If you're looking for a contractor who combines quality workmanship, speed, and value (& is just a great guy) I enthusiastically recommend Daniel Lugo Construction.

A rite of passage for new homeowners is to deal with a major repair. Less than a year after moving in, heavy rains led to water from outside making its way inside without invitation. Noticing some damaged wood that was likely to blame, we called on Nelson to help. Of the various contractors we solicited for quotes, Nelson was the most through and punctual. And throughout, Nelson and team were reliable, communicative and provided expert work for a job which started as a "minor" siding repair but expanded (to our dismay) in scope as increasing amounts of rotting, structural wood from the previous owner was uncovered. Although it was disconcerting to see how much damage we would need to address, Nelson was sympathetic and assured us that it would be straightforward to fix and advised on a couple of different approaches, which we agreed to. His team arrived on time every day and worked around weather conditions to perform carpentry, waterproofing, and offered continuous updates. We also hired Nelson's team to paint afterwards, and are very happy with the results. By the end we started dreaming about other projects or repairs we could accomplish and started getting his feedback on those as well! One thing we learned is that it's necessary to make sure the discussions are thoroughly documented-we had a couple of misunderstandings about what was included or not after verbal discussions, which we either resolved through the contract, or realized after the fact that it was something discussed but never written down so we let it go. But making the agreement itself was a breeze, and Nelson is good humored, flexible and was easy to work with at all of the stages of the process. We would certainly work with him on future repairs.

I've done three major remodels, and if there's one thing I've learned, it's that choosing the right…read morecontractor makes all the difference. After my first major remodel, I was firmly in the "never again" camp. There's a steep learning curve, and there are always unexpected issues. Once you've gone through it, you understand why people say remodeling is not something they ever want to repeat. But about a decade later, I decided to take on another major project--and this time I knew I wasn't going to choose a contractor based primarily on price. I once saw a sign that said, "Only rich people can afford to hire a cheap contractor, because they're the only ones who can afford to do it twice." There's a lot of truth to that. What you're really paying for is knowledge, experience, judgment, problem-solving ability, and communication. I've learned that finding a contractor who is truly good at all of those things is rare. That's why I hired G Family Construction. Jon Grabham is one of the smartest people I've encountered in the industry. He has extensive experience and runs a company large enough to have both the resources and strong relationships with vendors and subcontractors. Just as importantly, he is pleasant to work with and an excellent communicator--whether by phone, email, or by using technology to mark up plans and photos, submit documents for approvals, and keep a complicated project moving. Jon is also extremely responsive and reliable. When you call or email with a question or problem, he gets back to you and talks you through the options. Construction inevitably brings unexpected issues, and Jon's strength is that he finds solutions. If he doesn't immediately know the answer, he knows how to find it and figure out a workable solution. Most importantly, I trust him. I subsequently hired G Family Construction again to build a JADU and install an elevator, this time on a time-and-materials basis. To me, being comfortable doing that says a lot about the level of trust we had developed. Jon provided a budget, and although unexpected things inevitably came up, we worked through them. He was reasonable and, at times, flexible in helping me make the numbers work. There's another benefit to finding the right contractor that people may not think about: it can become a long-term relationship that extends well beyond the original project or warranty period. When something related or unrelated comes up, it's incredibly valuable to have a trusted contractor you can call for advice. For example, I recently had a very difficult-to-locate underground irrigation leak that was costing me thousands of dollars in water bills. My handyman thought we might have to start breaking up concrete to search for it. Instead, G Family Construction had specialized leak-detection equipment that many plumbers don't even have. Jon worked with my handyman to locate the leak and get the problem resolved--saving us from unnecessarily tearing up concrete. I highly recommend Jon Gragram and G Family Construction for remodeling and construction work. I have found Jon to be knowledgeable, resourceful, responsive, and trustworthy.

Two years ago, they completed our upstairs master bedroom addition and remodel, including a beautiful new master bathroom. They also remodeled our entryway and front porch, giving our home fantastic curb appeal and making a great first impression. We are still absolutely loving the results today. The addition exceeded our expectations and has truly transformed both the look and functionality of our home. From start to finish, the team was professional, attentive, and delivered outstanding craftsmanship. The quality of their work has stood the test of time, and we continue to enjoy the improvements every day. What has impressed us even more is the continued support after the project was completed. Recently, we experienced an issue with a tub leak and reached out to John. He responded promptly, sent his plumber to assess the problem, and discovered that the tub fixture was still under warranty. A brand-new replacement fixture was ordered and installed, resolving the issue quickly and professionally. John is excellent with communication, follow-up, and follow-through. He truly stands behind his work and takes care of his customers long after the project is complete. We also have to give a special shout-out to Ladybug, John's friendly dog, who always brought a smile during the project! We highly recommend John G. and G Family Company to anyone looking for a contractor who delivers exceptional craftsmanship, professionalism, reliability, and outstanding customer service.

You want someone who doesn't bullshit you. You want someone who is kind of like a Sherpa guiding you. Here is my personal experience: We had an outdated kitchen that was not up to code. I used to love to cook but I'd come into the kitchen and quickly wanted to step away. So I initially went to Home Depot thinking ok great they have everything in one place! Because I'm not a DIY nor have any knowledge in this I felt half way through that I needed a bit more direction. I work 12 hr days and wanted someone who understood what I wanted. But what's interesting about a remodel is sometimes it's beyond your imagination! Green Bay had a 3D model which they tied into appliances and helped to see how the kitchen would look! Noy also had tips and tricks and advice along the way. But here's the thing - it isn't always butterflies! In any relationship there is misunderstanding, impatience and a difference in communication. Noy knows his shit. You just have to trust that. July 6 was demolition. sept 11 we moved all our stuff back. Now I just walk into the kitchen and just stand and breathe and thank Green Bay and Noy for being my Sherpa to the Mount Everest I call kitchen remodeling. I'm looking forward to using them for projects down the road!

The bathroom was completely transformed. What started as a very dated space is now modern, clean, and beautifully finished. The attention to detail in the tile work, fixtures, lighting, and overall layout really shows the quality of their craftsmanship. It honestly feels like a spa compared to what we had before. They also repaired and rebuilt sections of our deck where there was structural rot. The work was done carefully and correctly, and the finished deck looks fantastic. A special thank you to our project manager, Ari, who was excellent throughout the process. Renovations inevitably come with a few surprises, but Ari handled everything professionally and made sure issues were addressed quickly and properly. His communication and follow-through made the whole project run smoothly. Overall, we had a great experience with Green Bay Remodeling and would definitely recommend them to anyone considering a remodel.

Not only did they paint, but they also repaired necessary areas, were considerate of our property, and stayed well organized every day (this including non-cooperative Sausalito weather). This was the best experience, so much so that I can recommend this well-organized company without hesitation, and certainly appreciate their competitive pricing. GREAT! In Sausalito.

The bookshelves…read morethat he designed, built, and installed really add much-needed warmth and life to our living room! BACKGROUND: We wanted bookshelves installed above a built-in cabinet unit in our living room. I sent Jitendra a sketch and described what we wanted. From my chicken-scratch sketch, he created a design and mock-up, then measured our space. While measuring, he flagged all existing flaws in the space (uneven/slanted walls) so that we were aware of all inconsistencies upfront. He has amazing attention to detail! RESULTS: We were simply blown away by how well he was able to match the custom shelves to our existing unit; all of the wood looks like it was manufactured at the same time! It truly looks like it was all constructed as one piece from the very beginning, which is exactly what we wanted. In addition, we really appreciate that he took initiative to incorporate crown molding/extra detail on the top of the shelving unit. This is something that I would never have thought to do. WHY YOU SHOULD HIRE HIM: There's good reason why the word "artisan" is in the name of this business. He goes above and beyond on quality, service, and workmanship, AND he's very personable, patient, and kind. I HIGHLY recommend working with Jitendra and his crew; worth every penny!

I'll definitely be working with him again in the future. Can't recommend him highly enough.
