When we started, we didn't know what colors we wanted to use, but Gregory was there to help us throughout the entire design process, present and creative, suggesting unique details like a wood-look painting technique on closet doors and a special artsy detail on the outside of our house- a beautiful rising sun. Our home is unique and colorful in the best of ways thanks to his consultation and guidance. His team is professional and friendly. Having children around we are always concerned about having professionals in our home who are respectful and trustworthy. His painters are exactly that. If you happen to find Gregory, consider yourself lucky- he's a gem in Santa Cruz!

Full disclosure: when Gregory first explained his process for picking paint colors to us, I was a…read morebit of a skeptic. My initial thought was "I don't need a therapy session to pick paint colors, I just want some shade of blue for the house and white for the trim". ‍ But then we had our paint picking session with Gregory, and it was SO helpful. (And no it's not a "therapy session" - it's just a very thorough conversation about color options where he helps guide you to discovering what is the best color choice for you). By the end of it, we'd decided on a color I had not initially been considered (a lovely blueish teal), which I had worried would be too dark, or too similar to the home's previous color. But it wasn't too dark at all, is definitely not too similar to the color we had before, and it looks absolutely gorgeous! We couldn't be happier with the results. Gregory was wonderful to work with, and his team did an excellent job. I'd highly recommend them!

She can envision what the outcome of a project will look like, before it's even started. She can read you and your taste very quickly and then has a way of putting different color schemes together that I never would have thought of.

Shannon helped us create an amazing design for our master bathroom remodel and deck construction, and we're completely thrilled with the layout and execution. We were consistently kept in the loop on all important decisions, and felt like our choices were all respected and honored. They are also genuinely kind and fun people to spend time with, and felt like part of the family throughout the course of the project. It's a privilege to work with such a top caliber team, and we'd highly recommend them for any work you have in mind.

Luis and his team spent about 30 minutes understanding my requirements and provided detailed and honest feedback. They explained that since my existing patio is built with Alumawood, enclosing it with a regular wood frame would not be appropriate. The proper options would be either to remove the existing structure and rebuild it from scratch or use a specialized Alumawood sunroom system. Even though iBuilders Design and Build could not take on my project, I truly appreciate Luis and his team for their transparency, professionalism, and willingness to provide honest guidance upfront. Their responsiveness and helpful advice made the process much clearer for me.
