    Wood shavings IN our washer because no tarping of working areas
    Jill C.

    Realty Builders Inc., and NOmentum Construction Inc. (name changed due to contractual reasons), are run by the same owner with the same working crew. They are operating under two separate names to win more bids. I learned this because while working with NOmentum, the project manager slipped up multiple times. First, they asked me to make out a check and write "Realty" on the envelope. Second, I received a google drive file access request from a Realty builder email address. The project manager told me she didn't know why that happened, but I'm not stupid. I cross-referenced Realty reviews and the crew names and owner names referenced are the same. I reached out to a Realty customer and validated phone numbers match. I received a Realty estimate from Craig. I should have picked Craig, because our project manager at NOmentum was incredibly rude. He completed work without telling us it would be a change order of $1k+. I said we should have been notified before proceeding, and he literally yelled at me that this was "not his job". The owner of the company had to get involved to make it right, which we appreciated, but the experience was extremely negative and jarring. I bet Craig would have been nicer. Our job was a kitchen remodel, plus garage conversion to laundry room and bathroom. The kitchen and laundry room are satisfactory but required a lot of project management. Biggest complaint is they did not complete the tile under the shower bench, so our shower is effectively not waterproofed. They ghosted us for a month until I posted online reviews. This should not have passed final inspection. Our job started in January, and was finally completed in November. The crew was nice. We liked the foreman, plumber, and all the other guys... but the rotating crew of subcontractors left a mess every day. I was third trimester pregnant and my husband and I were shop-vacuuming / wiping up dust EVERYDAY. They would repeatedly perform work without tarping, even though we reminded them multiple times. We ended up with wood shavings in our washer, dry wall dust on our couch & bed! The owner promised to get a cleaning crew in at the end of the job and never did. They offered a cleaning crew in November again, but we declined because we already cleaned it ourselves-- we weren't going to live in filth for months waiting for them.

    Realty Builders did a masterful job building my new ADU from the ground up. In addition, they modernized my master bathroom, and added a walk-in closet to my master bedroom. They helped me through every step of the process from architectural work, to working with the city to obtain permits, and even made suggestions on where to obtain the finished products (bathroom/kitchen cabinets, 3 panel folding door, windows, skylights etc.). They are a seasoned team with experience, expertise, and patience (I tend to ask a ton of questions). In terms of cost, they are not the "lowest in town", but they are fair and honest. The team of Avi, Stacy, and Alex (and his brothers) quickly became part of the family. I would highly recommend them for any of your construction/renovation needs.

    New pantry area... I installed that cat playground for our kitties
    An S.

    Our project originally was to build a shower in our half bathroom by connecting the pantry as part of the new full bath. As the demolition started, we discovered rotting floors and water damages, including electrical issues. The project became three times bigger. A full gut from our laundry room, through the kitchen, and dining area had to be demolished. Fortunately, Realty builders took care of it, got the new permit from the city, and coordinated with me as we move forward. My favorite part about realty builders is their communication. The whole new project finished in exactly 99 days despite all the holidays that was added into the timeline. The staff was so friendly. Shout out to Avi, Shai, Shirel, Viktor, and everyone else in the team. Also, shoutout to the contractors who were amazing and very knowledgeable on what they do, especially Manny, Cesar, Edwin, Carlos, Angel, Frederico, Miguel, Oscar, Luis, and Hugo. I love my new downstairs. I definitely recommend this company to anyone. In case you do use Realty builders, be advised that sometimes unexpected things can happens. For example, some special materials are not available or backed ordered. Well, the fastest way to resolve issues is keeping an open mind to other options. Remembering that these people are professionals and they have ideas that could make more sense for more functional areas of your project. I hope this helps for anyone who has an upcoming project in the future.

    More cupboards and they matched the trim to the rear of the house.

    We just finished our kitchen remodel with them! Our house is old (built 1867) and I won't say the remodel was pain free or seamless. There were glitches and periodic problems and we got an electrical panel upgrade, which added to the expense. But, they were professional and worked through all the glitches and issues with us. I am very happy with the work and the overall experience. I definitely recommend and will reach out to them when we are ready for our next project!

They worked with me on figuring out how to hide a sump pump pipe and navigating through our neighbor's concerns. The build quality is very nice and the crew was great about making adjustments for issues we discovered during the build. They even made the back of the fence look nice for our neighbor by covering the sump pipe. Communication with Wilson and his onsite crew was great. They also did a very good job cleaning up. They didn't have the cheapest quote but I felt this is one of those kind of things where you get what you pay for. For something we see every day I wanted it to be right. Great job A1!

From the first visit to the final walkthrough,…read moreMatt and his team made both my home project and my mom's fence replacement completely stress-free. Homeowner experience I hired A-1 Fence to replace an aging fence at my house, and the difference is night and day. Matt took the time to walk the property with me, explain options, and give a clear, detailed estimate with no surprises. The crew showed up exactly when they said they would, worked efficiently, and left my yard cleaner than they found it. The new fence looks fantastic, feels solid, and has already gotten compliments from neighbors. Work on my mom's house After seeing the quality of their work at my place, I had A-1 Fence come out to my mom's house for a much-needed fence and gate upgrade. Matt was incredibly patient with her questions, never rushed her, and helped her choose something safe, secure, and attractive. His team treated her property with real respect, checked in with her at every key step, and made sure she was comfortable with the plan and timeline. Knowing my mom now has a sturdy, professionally installed fence gives our family real peace of mind. Matt and his team Matt is the kind of owner you want on any project: responsive, honest, and deeply knowledgeable about fencing and gates. He returned calls and emails quickly, kept us updated on scheduling, and personally checked the work when it was done. His foreman and crew clearly take pride in their craftsmanship--every line is straight, the posts are set perfectly, and the finish work is meticulous. You can tell this is a long-standing, family-run business that cares more about doing it right than just getting it done fast. Why I'd recommend them Between my home and my mom's, we got consistent, top-tier service, fair pricing, and beautiful results from A-1 Fence. They handled everything--from removal of the old fence to the final cleanup--with professionalism and courtesy. If you're in the Bay Area and need any kind of residential fencing, I would not waste time shopping around; call Matt at A-1 Fence and you'll be in excellent hands.

Ignacio, who came for the site visit and identified himself as the owner, was very easy to communicate with both in person and over the phone. However, Jackie, (not clear to me if she's the co-owner or Ignacio's wife) finalizes pricing and pretty much runs the show. For our project, we had picked IVS to do the work, but the price kept increasing by thousands of dollars. I asked to speak with Ignacio since these changes were inconsistent with what I discussed with him and put them week above our other quotes, but Jackie said that's not necessary since she decides the pricing. They also charge tax on materials, which no other fencers do (since they're already paying tax to Home Depot, etc.). These business practices felt disingenuous to me and like bait and switch. I've had issues in the past with businesses like this that once the work begins they'll change order you again and ask for more money. So we did not use them. For this fence, we received multiple quotes. Two companies were in the $9-10K range and IVS was around $12K. All were licensed and bonded. We went with the lowest quote and are extremely happy with our fence.
