    Kitchen with Acacia countertops

    This business is not closed. This contractor does stellar work! He has done so much in my house I have lost track. Artisans like him rarely exist these days.

    It came out amazing, we get tons of compliments and we haven't even painted yet.

    First- his work is the best. I mean flawless. He will tell you what you need what others are doing, what IKEA will tell you and how to respond to them. He knows the products inside and out, better than the employees at IKEA. He is also a perfectionist. Your cabs will come out amazing, I mean really good. Work ethic is just as good. He always was there 10 mins before he said he'd be there. Robert was always waiting on me instead of vice versa. His IKEA plans are spot on as well. Feel confident that when the employees question what he has on the list, the employees are wrong, not him. The stand out moment was when he did a re design at night while I was at the store, to accommodate what they had in stock- IKEA sucks with their stock during their sales... It's really terrible, but he makes it as tolerable as possible to deal with IKEA. Personality wise very cool dude. Easy to talk to and you can be open about what you want, like and don't like. We had him do so much stuff in our kitchen... Raised ceiling, demo, wall removal, cabinets, appliances, design twice, lighting in cabs, ceiling, and under cabs... We had him do everything and it all turned out AMAZING. We had some scheduling problems and he made sure to follow up and complete everything we had agreed to and we are VERY happy with the outcome. First class all the way!

    Our Kitchen-- before and after.

    I was a little worried about finding a contractor for our kitchen remodel, since you always hear horror stories about lousy contractors, but once my husband and I found Robert, we were trilled to find someone competent and trustworthy He was very clear and up front about his prices (which are really good)-- very prompt in his communication with us-- and obviously cares about the quality of his work. I highly recommend Robert not just in yelp-land but also to my friends. We love our kitchen and totally plan on calling Robert the next time we need work done at our house.

    Roberts work completed! He isnt in charge of my countertops, but his cabinet work is amazing!

    He really is a 5 star guy! I'm always a little weary when I see a Yelp profile with 5 stars on every single review, Robert absolutely has earned and deserves every single star on this review. I setup an appointment with Robert and he came over the same day that I had taken off to meet with the guys(Signature Services) from IKEA, flaked. He looked at my kitchen plans, looked at all of our prep work and gave me a rough quote. Like others have said, he has a great personality and is professional. Robert emailed me later that evening, told me the dates he would be working and when the project would be finished. He was there when he said he would be and the project was done when he said it would be! Robert installed all of the cabinetry, the over the stove microwave, set the refrigerator and dishwasher and even installed our sink/faucet temporarily until we get our counter tops! Robert really came in and wowed me. If you need someone to install your IKEA kitchen, he is definitely the man!

    All the rave reviews about Robert are TRUE. He is great at what he does and very pleasant to work with. Of all the service providers I have found through Yelp, I can say without exaggeration that he is the best find by far. GREAT WORK. This past summer, Robert installed all the cabinetry, appliances and lighting for my kitchen remodel using Omega cabinets. I've attached a few pictures that speak for themselves. He cleaned up after himself each day and always locked the doors if he was leaving before I got home. Having worked with him for some 3 weeks on the project, I can say with complete confidence that I would recommend him to my family and friends. HONEST. After working with Robert on the kitchen, I basically wanted him to do everything else in the house....but unfortunately Robert is the go to person for some local kitchen designers so he is very, very busy. I was lucky enough to have him install some bathroom vanities for my bath remodel and you know what, this was the first time a contractor ever asked me to pay less than his quote. Robert had given me a flat quote for the vanities, which price I already thought was reasonable. After he saw them and did the work, he said it did not take as much time as expected and reduced my price. I happily paid him before he changed his mind. (I live in Newport Coast so most contractors think that's a license to double or triple their price...it's sad but true). GOOD ATTITUDE. I'm a picky person and notice everything and Robert is detailed oriented, so we make a good team. Robert is also very patient and if I wanted something changed from what we originally talked about, he did it, with no attitude. He also has great suggestions and ideas on how to solve design issues and is always eager to help. He showed up to the job with a smile and worked efficiently. RELIABLE. Now that I've found Robert, I feel I can accomplish many of my remodeling goals without worry. Having remodeled most of my home in the last year, I've worked with many different contractors and always felt stressed on whether they'll show up when they say they will, honor their work such that they'll come back to fix a problem, etc., the feelings of frustration and anxiety go on and on. But Robert actually makes me feel at ease and I know if I need something later on, he'll be there. Don't hesitate to text Robert, but maybe do it in three months after my to do list is completed?

    I have been meaning to write this review for quite some time now. Robert installed our entire dream kitchen, appliances and backsplash included. We bought a fixer about a year and a half ago and endured an extensive renovation which involved many contractors. Robert was by far our favorite in the process. Not only did he do an incredible job with attention to every little detail, he was professional, knowledgeable, and extremely helpful throughout the process. He offered us ideas that we hadn't even thought of and really made it a good experience overall. He is also competitively priced and affordable. I highly recommend his services! Thank you, Robert and sorry it has taken us so long to post this review. We love our kitchen! It is the highlight of our home.

    Robert did our kitchen cabinet/backsplash install, we were super pleased by his work. He had fair pricing, was upfront about any additional costs, and he is just a very friendly person. It is nice to feel comfortable while someone is in your home. He also went beyond just our cabinet install and found two leaks in our kitchen, which he fixed and ultimately saved our new kitchen from water damage. We would definitely hire him again to do our bathroom remodel next year! Thanks Robert!

What started as a dark/worn space is now a modern and bright home that we've received countless compliments on that the transformation can hardly be believed! In addition, some additional highlights from working w/ George/Tixan Construction: * [Great Communication] - George was an excellent communicator throughout our renovation. He provided timely responses to any texts/emails/calls throughout which greatly helped explain and minimize our concerns 1st time home owners. * [Excellent Prices] - George and his team provided excellent pricing for all work performed. Close friends/colleagues familiar with construction confirmed the competitive pricing provided for the work performed. * [Service] - George provided great customer service as he was very willing to provide his expertise and opinion on design and material selections to ensure we maximized the quality within our renovation budget. In addition, he works to ensure excellent quality in his work. As an example, we had some challenges with our stairs creaking and he was willing to revisit free of charge until the sound was either eliminated or minimized as much as possible. Overall, I highly recommend George & Tixan Construction for. He is truly a stand-out General Contractor amongst the crowd.

On top of that, part of the project had to do with our insurance; we needed a contractor that would be willing to provide exactly what the insurance needed. We typed the proposal up, and Jeff filled in with what the insurance requested. We wanted to remove light fixtures in the living room and replace it with a pendant fixture, as well as recessed lights. The shades we bought ended up not being the perfect fit for the new fixture we wanted to use in the dining room, but Jeff and Chase were patient and knowledgeable to know how to "sand this, and cut that " and made the shades work and look beautiful! We are very pleased with their work and will definitely be using them again for all things home repairs. As a perfectionist, it's hard to find great contractors like them.

Jon is a local general contractor since 2002 whose projects are almost entirely from word-of-mouth. I got to know him professionally during my friend's kitchen remodel; during which she couldn't be home for 6 weeks due to unexpected surgery, hospitalization and rehab. During this time I regularly observed Jon's dedication to complete her job to perfection to ensure she came home to her new kitchen. Sure there are contractors with expertise and experience but this one really cares that his clients are satisfied and he did everything and more to make my dream a reality. When a sub incorrectly installed my countertop on a Friday, Jon got back here in 30 minutes getting it corrected over the weekend and reinstalled on Monday. Know that this review is coming from a perfectionist. The biggest value to me is that I did not have to worry about anything going wrong because I knew that Jon Would Make It Right. And that my friends, is Priceless.

    Bill is a true craftsman! I've had a wood gate that has needed rebuilding for the last 8 years…read more Pieces of the wood gate were rotting. Over the years, I've had other handymen pass on the project. I had a handyman who was able to fill the rotted areas with wood filler, sand it, and restain it. I've even had a gate company tell me that they could not save the gate; it would need to be completely replaced. Bill was able to cut out the rotted pieces of wood, replace them, and restain the whole gate (he also repainted the decorative hardware on the door as well). Moreover, he discussed the project with a buddy of his and they determined that the gate was sitting over a muddy part of landscaping which is probably what facilitated the deterioration of the wood. We found some leftover pavers in our storage shed and Bill extended the pavers so the gate would sit over pavers instead of mud. Before he embarked on the wood gate repair, Bill also installed a valance/shade over a window. He made the necessary calculations to ensure that the valance/shade would be centered on the wall and window. He also made sure that the valence was leveled. Bill is honest, meticulous and detail-oriented. If you want someone to treat your project and your home, like it's his own, I would give Bill a call.
