    Josh came up with the idea to build closets around our HVAC unit, our gun safe, and our water heater then beautifully executed.
    Joshua K.

    We bought a house that was built in 1979 and that only had one owner who never hired proper contractors for any projects. (as evidenced by the half-baked epoxy floors in these "before" pictures) It only took Josh one visit to listen to my vision for a complete overhaul, remodel, and desire for an attic. Josh not only captured the vision, he also gave us new ideas for the garage that we hadn't even thought of!! (check out the electric lift that we can load 300lbs onto without having to break our backs by carrying boxes up into the attic! #mindblown) We also didn't like that the water heater and HVAC system were completely exposed which made our garage look old and decrepit. We also had a gun safe that we tried to hide behind an old refrigerator so it wasn't visible from the street. Once again, Josh had an amazing idea to build a closet structure around the HVAC unit, the water heater, and the gun safe that came complete with door handles! Prior to Josh giving us the good news that it was possible to add an attic, Josh identified a very serious problem with the primary support beams with the previous owner's version of rafter storage. The issue was that there weren't enough of them to support any heavy boxes because the beams were spread too far apart and not up to code. (check out the rafter pictures!) One of the other reasons that I wanted the garage project started was due to an unfortunate incident where a rat had snuck up into the engine bay of one of my supercars that I had left outside one evening. That dang rodent did over $13,000 in damage to the wiring in a single night! With this new garage, Josh also showed me areas where he made improvements to prevent rodents from entering the garage. (we know they can get into any area they want, but it was good that Josh and team made it harder for them to enter) We had told Josh that we also wanted to get a Tesla at some point in the future, so he had his electricians also install a 240v wall outlet so we could add a charging station for a Tesla in the future. One last thing that Josh helped us with was our sprinkler system. The previous owner had the sprinkler system installed inside their homemade cabinets in the garage. Josh and team moved the sprinkler system controls outdoors into an all-weather box. It was a really nice touch. To top off the project, Josh referred an epoxy floors contractor who got the floors looking perfect for the fun-cars that I have parked there! At the end of the day, the garage turned out to be significantly beyond our expectations with some really epic features! (electronic lift, hidden closets, and future-proof electric car chargers!) At the end of the day, we all want a construction contract that we can trust. It's also amazing when you can find one, like Josh, that gives you design ideas that will make your project more beautiful than you had ever imagined. Well done Josh, we absolutely love our new garage!

    Protex Construction did a phenomenal job on our fireplace framing. Josh and Lisa are very professional and ensured we were happy with the finished product. It is hard to find a contractor who is timely, fair, pays attention to detail, and looking out for the customer and Protex does it all! Omar was polite, on time, and really took the time to listen to our concerns. There were some issues that arose during the job and Josh and them team really handled them well. I am so happy that we decided to hire Protex for the job and would definitely consider hiring them again! Licensed and insured with great quality work and customer service!

    We enclosed our formal dining room into an office space. Protex did a great job, for a reasonable price and in a timely manner. Working with the owner, foreman and workers was a pleasure. They were careful in my home and attentive to the vision I had.

    PROTEX Construction converted our living room/dining room into a downstairs master bedroom/bath. We like our home and our neighborhood and we didn't want to buy, sell, and move, and those stairs are getting a bit old especially in the evening. Josh and the PROTEX team were professional, timely and provided quality work. Josh added creative recommendations during the process and he was flexible with my surprise creative changes along the way. We found that any little concern that we raised was addressed quickly and resolved completely. We have had family, friends and neighbors tour our new rooms and we have received many compliments. Our ongoing thanks to Josh, Lisa, Omar, Art and the full PROTEX team. We recommend this team and we would definitely hire PROTEX again for any future projects.

    We went through a major Kitchen Remodel in the month of November 2019. We had water damage from our dishwasher and filter that burst which caused a slow leak that ruined our wood cabinets. We also decided to replace our tiles and redo our entire bottom floor including a mini bathroom remodel. We did extensive research and chose Josh Menshe, owner of Protex Construction and his team. Josh is a true professional who is honest and is focused on making sure we were comfortable with our new remodel and design. Josh asked what our goal was and we said to have more space for all of our kitchen items and to expand our counters/island as much as possible. Josh immediately had a vision of what our new kitchen layout would be. We were hesitant at first because it included closing up our existing windows, changing our sink direction, and adding two new brand new windows that would face our back yard. We weren't planning for such a major remodel but Josh reassured us that the new design would meet our goals. We instilled our trust in Josh and decided to move forward with the design. We encountered various obstacles along the way but Josh and his team completed our remodel and was on schedule. Josh coordinated all of our inspections, ensured that his team was always punctual each day, when we had issues, he had his team come resolve them quickly (even on the weekend and on Thanksgiving Day, which we appreciated). Josh was ALWAYS responsive, available via text and email, and stopped by frequently to checked in with us to make sure all was well. Special kudos to the most hardworking construction team that Josh has which included Omar, Art, Jesus, Rene, Mike, Lisa, and the rest of the guys! During the construction, we decided to add recess lights to our living room and our children's room. Although it was on top off all the other tasks the team had to deliver, Josh's team completed it and our kids were truly ecstatic with the additional lights! We highly recommend Protex Construction and we'll be contacting Josh for all our future house updates. Josh went above and beyond with our remodel and we couldn't be happier with our dream kitchen and downstairs remodel!

    First off, let me say that I've been in the world of construction and real estate for over 25 years and Protex Construction is by far the most professional construction company I have ever dealt with! Josh (contractor) is honest, reliable, communicative, pro-active, and very knowledgeable about his craft. His team wears company shirts so you know they are part of his crew and they do great work! We needed to add a 2 bedroom and 1 bath addition to our single story house due to family members moving in. Total addition of 587sq. ft came out better than we could have imagined! Total construction time was quicker than getting permits from the city. The minute we received the okay from the city, Josh was coordinating a start date and getting started. We never felt pressured to do something any other way than what we wanted or envisioned. Josh's costs were very reasonable and nothing ever seem "over-priced" for what he did or suggested as options. When the city inspector came to complete our final sign off, the city inspector told me he would hire whatever company (Protex) did the work because it was great! You can't go wrong hiring Protex Construction. You will be very happy with their "no nonsense, non pushy (sales job)" type of approach. Josh and his team will get it right the first time, stay on time, and with great craftsmanship! From Josh and Jose, to Omar and Jesus, and their inside office staff headed by Lisa, everything was great! Protex Construction is the right answer! Thanks again!

    We just recently completed a five (October - March) remodel of our home with Protex and couldn't be happier with the result. We actually were referred to Josh Menashe prior to purchasing our fixer upper. Josh was actually kind enough to come out and give us a bid while we were still in escrow and it really helped us get some concessions on repairs from the seller. Additionally, Josh did a great job in working with our interior designer, getting the plans drawn up and getting all permits with the city pulled so we were able to start demo the day after we closed on the house. The scope of work was quite large (we gutted the entire interior and remodeled all aspects of the house). Josh and his crew worked diligently and whenever the project would start to get behind schedule (not necessarily his fault - change orders, unforeseen inspection issues - he would have subs working even on the weekends to get the project back on time). In addition he worked real well with our interior designer to make sure the details of the design were executed. One thing I really enjoyed about working with Josh was the transparency. He was upfront about everything, including costs. He gave an extremely detailed line item bid, which made it really easy to follow to determine how much work had been done and when it came time to make a payment. Additionally, he didn't charge up front. I would make payments as work was completed. I couldn't have been happier with the result and pain free process Josh and Protex made what is usually an extremely stressful experience. I've added a few before and after photos to show the final product.

    Josh and his team are amazing! We hired them to do a bathroom remodel. Turned out beautifully. Everything was completed on time and exactly the way we wanted it! We had no issues along the way, everything was kept as organized and clean as possible and all of the employees were polite. I would trust them to do any remodel! Truly professional work.

    Ask the Community - Protex Construction

    Hi, what would be the average cost and time to remove a fireplace/chimney and convert the space (approximately 135 sq ft) into a bedroom+bathroom? Also, do you help homeowner to obtain permit from city?

    What city are you in? 135sf is not enough room for a bedroom and bathroom.

    Winpoint Construction - So nice

    (44 reviews)

    We had a tough time trying to find a contractor to fully remodel our kitchen. We interviewed eight…read morecontractors before we finally stumbled upon Winpoint, through the help of Yelp. There were many contractors with high Yelp ratings, but we found the majority of the ones we spoke with were outrageously expensive and beyond our budget. The few that were within our budget felt untrustworthy, based on conflicting information/advice other contractors had given us. Then, with met with Winpoint's owner, Jun Wang. At our initial consultation, Jun patiently spent a fair amount of time learning about the vision we had for the new kitchen. The communication was clear. His demeanor and conduct were professional. He explained what he could and couldn't (or shouldn't) do. At the end of that consultation, he submitted a quote that I thought was (finally) a good value and affordable. He said our project was going to take six weeks. When all was said and done, it took exactly six weeks to complete. No excuses for why they couldn't finish on time, despite whatever roadblocks they dealt with along the way. I appreciated that he pushed hard enough to stay on schedule. In the end, he did what he said he would do - there were no broken promises. That was important to me. Winpoint is a smaller company. It doesn't have all of the overhead larger companies have, which means, in his case, that lower operational costs get passed onto the customer. If you need something, you deal directly with Jun, not a telephone menu from hell, not a phone operator, apprentice or assistant project manager. While he did have other concurrent remodeling jobs, I found Jun to be responsive to our needs, questions and concerns and never felt we had to wait in line to get something done. Jun is very good at scheduling. We had no bottlenecks during our six weeks construction period. With the exception of cabinet and countertop installation, Jun does not use subcontractors. Electrical, plumbing, drywall, painting, tile installation, window installation, etc. are all completely within his control, which basically means that anything that doesn't go perfectly can (and does) get fixed by his employees right away and, more importantly, to his (and our) satisfaction. All of his employees are very good at their respective areas of expertise. Any minor imperfections were dealt with and rectified in a timely manner. Overall, I can recommend Winpoint for your kitchen or remodeling project. If you are looking for a good value and quality work, Jun is your man.

In the past, we've had issues with contractors being difficult to reach or completely ghosting us, but that was never a concern here--communication was clear and timely every step of the way. Jun and his team remodeled two bathrooms for us, including both the showers and bathtubs, and we couldn't be happier with the results. The craftsmanship was outstanding, and the attention to detail really shows in the finished work. Everything was done with care, and the final outcome exceeded our expectations. The quote provided was also one of the most competitive we received, which made the decision even easier. There were no surprises, and the project stayed on schedule. Overall, we're extremely happy we chose to work with Jun and his team and would absolutely recommend them for bathroom remodels or other future projects.

    If you're looking for a pool contractor who combines elite craftsmanship with true professional…read moreintegrity, I cannot recommend Waterfall Pools enough. Our pool remodel turned out absolutely beautiful. From the initial estimate to the final inspection, the quality of the work was top-tier. We specifically chose travertine and mini pebble resurfacing, and the final result is stunning. What really sets Waterfall Pools apart is the owner, Ensar. His communication throughout the project was excellent, and his attention to detail is remarkable. There was a moment during the project where he personally inspected some of the coping and decking work; although it might have looked fine to an untrained eye, it wasn't up to his high standard. He immediately had his crew redo it to ensure it was perfect. That kind of integrity is rare. A few other highlights from our experience: Reliability: Ensar stuck exactly to the schedule he gave us, completing the project right on time. Professionalism: He is genuinely a nice guy who makes the entire construction process much less stressful. Transparency: The pricing was fair and transparent, with a clear progressive payment plan based on project phases. If you want the job done right by someone who actually cares about the finished product, Ensar and Waterfall Pools are the way to go. 100% recommend them!

I have dealt with my fair share of contractors and most don't pay attention to the details - They aren't helpful, and when you're not looking, they cut corners. Ensar is different. He was always available to answer all my many questions. He took time to explain things. If there was even a minor detail I had a question about, he made sure to address quickly with his crews. It was clear he and his crews were in lockstep the whole time. He visited the site regularly. He seemed genuinely invested in making sure he delivered a good project for us. At one point, we had some issues due to the rain, and Ensar himself drove out on a weekend to help me out. His crews also work very hard. I was always impressed by their dedication and wanting to make sure things were taken care of. Schedule - He gave me an estimated completion time and I thought, no way. We had two major rain delays, about a week each, and somehow he still made the original schedule he projected. He sent his crews out almost daily. It was clear he did a lot of planning on his side to ensure the right crews were available at each step of the project. Budget - I got multiple estimates and his was very competitive. Makes you wonder is it too low? But as we went through the project, there were no sudden upcharges or surprises. His budget was real. Anything additional that we asked for, he was very reasonable with giving us a cost. Not pushy in any way, just gave us options. We're very happy with our pool and wouldn't hesitate recommending Ensar and Waterfall Pools.
