Also...for the first two projects we got quotes from other companies and Good Life was the best. For the third project we didn't bother looking around. Jason has been our main point of contact, and he is absolutely amazing. He is a great communicator, always comes up with smart solutions to any issue, and genuinely cares about the quality of the finished product. His customer service is top-notch. On top of that, the guys on-site, Yaro and Everett, were both fantastic to work with and did incredible work. Even the staff answering the phones are helpful and friendly every time you call. They work fast and actually stick to the schedule, but the main thing that sets them apart is their honesty. I think it's rare to find a contractor you can 100% trust, but they have earned that trust completely. We love this company and will absolutely keep using them for all our future projects!

1 Star: The Patio Looks Nice, but That's About It!…read more While I will admit that the finished patio looks nice, that is honestly the only positive thing I can say about my experience with this construction company. The construction has been ongoing for months at Greenhaven Oaks Apartments, and the lack of professionalism, communication, and respect for residents' personal property has been extremely disappointing. During construction, workers damaged my children's belongings, including my daughter's baby carriage and my child's bicycle. Nobody even had the decency to notify me that my child's bike had been broken. They also put a hole through my living room wall, which was eventually patched but left unpainted and unfinished. What is especially frustrating is what happened to my children's recycling. I have been teaching my kids responsibility by having them sort and separate our recyclables on their own. They worked hard to organize everything, separating the materials and bagging them up properly. We had seven bags of recyclables ready to go. The following weekend, we lost access to our backyard because of the construction, and we still have not regained access. Now, only one bag of glass bottles remains. I have no idea what happened to everything else. This was not just a pile of recyclables. It was something my children took the time and effort to organize as part of learning responsibility, and now their hard work has essentially disappeared without any explanation. I have already reported these issues to my apartment management, including the damaged baby carriage. A nice-looking patio does not excuse damaged property, missing belongings, poor communication, or a complete lack of accountability. Residents should not have to discover damage to their belongings or repeatedly complain just to have their concerns acknowledged. At the end of the day, the patio may look good, but the way this company treated residents and their belongings was anything but professional. The finished product might deserve five stars, but the overall experience deserves one.

Just stop it, because I did that, too. No one else had 1) photos of impeccable work (look at that tile perfection - it looks better in real life), 2) expertise for plan and recommendations (I'm no design major), and 3) integrity to do the right thing each step of the way. Pricing wise, I was talked by salesman and pressured to sign a contract, "I work with my sons! "My tile guy is ready next week!", not with David. David knew my goal with my home (not my dream home) and thankfully we were able to stay within budget. If you want to know specifics, message me.

I was assigned Anna as the project manager for my project and Olga to obtain the permits and schedule the required inspections. Both of them were very easy to work with and handled everything for me in an organized manner. ADU specs include a large kitchen featuring a variety of full size appliances, lots of storage in the cabinets, and an island in the kitchen that will provide a lot of additional counter space. Stacked washer/dryer is located near the kitchen for easy access by tenants. The bedroom is good sized with ample storage in the closet. The unit is very bright and open. The exterior of the unit is very modern and sophisticated in color. It's understated and does not look like it has been over-accessorized. This will be used as an investment property and I'm very happy with how the unit turned out. Anna, Olga and the rest of the A+ team were great to work with and I have no complaints at all.

When John came…read moreto our house to quote the job, he was pleasant, down to earth, knowledgeable, no BS and he was all about supporting our vision for the room rather than trying to impose his own, unlike the other contractors we met with. So we chose him, and we're very glad we did. John and his team were skilled, professional, respectful and easy to work with throughout the project. Communication was excellent. And the project was completed on time and on budget, despite a couple of unforeseen setbacks (it's an 80 year old house). Now we have a beautiful, well-built master bath that's exactly what we wanted. And we weren't charged a penny over the estimate, which was very reasonable to begin with. We couldn't be happier. Burns Construction will be getting our business again next time we have a construction or remodeling project.

It's not fun at all to live through a remodel, especially when you lose your bedroom and bathroom and are sleeping in a guest room or living in a short term rental. But they did a great job accommodating us and respecting our family and our space. The quality of the workmanship was very good as well. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Burns Construction to a friend or family member.

5 stars all the way! Omar saw our "complicated" project, and let us know he could do it and was…read morehappy to take on a challenge. We are very happy with Omar and his company. I have done a lot of work over the years and am happy to say that if you live in this area, he is your guy. He was fair and honest from the get go. The price he gives you is the price you will pay. I never received any surprise "change orders". As contractors go, Omar was VERY open and communicative. No problems ever getting him or his crew on the phone. He had great suggestions on all things we discussed. Always seemed to know a lot about his work and various things people like. The project was a big one, and I am super happy with how fast it went. He even got started for us over Thanksgiving and Xmas, and his crew would show up on Saturday or Sunday sometimes to keep on working (which was fine with us!). There were no subcontractors involved... everything was through Noor Construction. If we had any minor issues that needed correcting, Omar would come and look at it and tell his crew what to do. We really appreciate the details, crown molding and trim was superbly done, and the tile was just amazing, we are very impressed with his team. I mean seriously anyone who has attempted to do crown molding in the past knows what I am talking about. For details if you've made it this far, our story: Where shall I start. I suppose we start with the idea: build a bedroom in the second floor space of our "great room" which has really tall ceilings... like 30 feet plus. So basically add a bedroom in the second story "empty space" above the first floor. Easy right? Well, after getting ghosted by several contractors, I finally called Omar. He informed he thought we were probably getting ghosted because the architect had told him that footings were needed to support this new bedroom which would be sort of like an island in the middle of the house. We live on a hill, so these support columns would have to go through the first floor, basement, and then under the house. This added to the cost, but we really wanted a bedroom in that space. Omar gave me a price. I told him no thanks, my wife and I thought well maybe we changed our mind as the cost came in higher with the footing work. After a few weeks, we talked it over, changed our minds. We really needed the bedroom. I called him, thinking "gosh he probably won't want our work". Omar came back, no change in price, same deal as before, he didn't even bat an eye, he was ready to go, and this was like 4 weeks later after I told him no. So yea, it was project that I was told was too much for people, everyone didn't want to go get permits or deal with the footings... Omar told us what to expect and stuck to the plan. He dealt with the County and the inspector always came and said even himself "these guys know what they are doing". We passed all inspections. Omar even was super flexible about adding things to the project as we went along, as you know I get ideas about what I might want, we added some carpeting and shelving, and additional tile work that he added at no additional cost to him. He really just knows what he is doing and is super on top of things. So go with Noor Construction if you have the chance, you won't regret it!

We used Olive Homes as our prime contractor for a full renovation of nearly our entire house in…read moreFolsom--kitchen, living room, master bedroom, master bath, laundry room, new floors, rewiring, and replumbing. It was a massive project that stripped things down almost to the studs. Overall, it was a 5-star experience and we're really happy with the final result. One of the things they did exceptionally well was the upfront planning. They scanned the house and worked off our Pinterest boards to build a digital 3D model first. Being able to iterate on that digital model before any demolition started meant my wife and I could nail down the aesthetics and know exactly what to expect. Once construction was underway, jobsite cleanliness was great, and living through the disruption was about as tolerable as a major renovation can be. Olive Homes handled all the Folsom city permitting and inspections without too much friction on our end. Whenever unforeseen issues popped up--as they always do with major renos--they came to us proactively with solid ideas and solutions. On top of that, they actually finished on budget (slightly under budget, in fact), which is pretty rare for a project of this scale. The main downside was the timeline. The project took longer than both we and Olive Homes expected. Their primary team and main subcontractors were top-notch, but some of those main subs hired secondary subcontractors below them. That extra layer caused communication breakdowns--there were days when secondary subs didn't show up when expected, and some of their work was lower quality and had to be redone. The prime contractor was very empathetic and considerate throughout, stepping in to ensure re-works were handled properly, but those secondary sub issues definitely caused delays. At the end of the day, the finished product turned out beautifully. The craftsmanship is high quality, and we've gotten a ton of compliments from family and neighbors. We've made our final payments and expect to do our 1-year warranty checkup punch list soon, but we are genuinely very happy with our home and would recommend Olive Homes to anyone looking for a solid, honest local contractor.
