We used Seabreeze Renovators for a front porch remodel (small project), and overall had a great experience. They responded quickly, came out to evaluate, and gave a reasonable quote. The person who did the work also walked me through design and material options. I originally wanted a Doric-style column, but they recommended a rectangular column using a durable PVC-type material (used for piping) and even reduced the price. I was hesitant, but it turned out to be the right call. They completed the job in one day and the house looks noticeably upgraded. Afterward, I noticed some movement in the railing slats. They explained it's normal since the railing is custom fabricated on site (not one solid piece), and similar to others in the neighborhood. Still, they came back out and glued them at no charge, and now everything feels solid. The finished look is beautiful--neighbors have already asked for referrals. Professional, responsive, and stood behind their work. Would recommend. read more

I appreciated working with the people of Seabreeze Renovators quite a lot and found their work to be of high quality. We are quite happy with the results of their work on our large remodeling project that required removing walls and adding beams. We replaced a bathroom, added a stackable laundry area, replaced our old knob and tube wiring, and combined our kitchen, dining, and family rooms into a beautiful open space with new cabinets, flooring, and appliances. No large project like this on an older home is without its surprises and stresses. The guys helped us through these unexpected "surprises" with reassuring competence and communication. read more

I'm not one to ever write reviews, but this company definitely deserves my review. From the start Al answered every question and helped me along the way for my shower remodel. Walter and Enrique did the most amazing job. They were clean, friendly, and definitely knew what they were doing. My shower is perfection. The price was definitely reasonable. I would recommend this company any day. Thank you Al, Walter, and Enrique. read more

I met with six different contractors before deciding to go with Seabreeze. I considered several factors to make sure I chose the best fit for me. First, I needed to feel comfortable with the people I'd be working with -- after all, they'd be working closely with me. Second, I wanted confidence that they could do the job well and deliver quality results. Third, the cost needed to feel fair. After meeting with Al and communicating with him extensively before signing the contract, I was confident that Seabreeze was going to hit the marks, definitely the right choice. Now that my bathroom renovation is complete, I'm very happy with both my decision and the final outcome. My dream bathroom is a reality and I am greatful that they worked closely with me to help achieve it. They were able to create some lovely arches that I insisted needed to stay in my design. Take a look at photos to see how nice they turned out. I highly recommend Seabreeze to anyone looking for a friendly, professional, and competent contractor. You will not be disappointed. read more

Christian and his team were so quick and efficient to get the job done ! Very helpful when expressing my concerns for my maintenance request. Please go to them for whatever you need.!!!! read more

Seabreeze Renovators just installed a small landing with stairs next to a new sliding glass door I had put in, as well a privacy lattice topper to an existing brick wall. The work came out great and I couldn't be happier. I was impressed that Al and Christain got back to me right away with an initial estimate and then afterward, any time I had a question. Walter and Enrique are friendly, professional, and do beautiful work.. they definitely know their job!! I highly recommend Seabreeze Renovators and plan to use them on any future work that comes up! Thanks guys! read more

Very happy to have selected Long Beach Building for my projects. Their team is super knowledgeable, easy to work with, and did an amazing job. They brought my design to life and worked closely with me on any last minute changes. Will definitely be working with them again in the future. read more

I manage a property in Long Beach for an out of town owner. We have been working with Seabreeze for two years on a challenging remodel with lots of high end features and custom details. This project has had long breaks to allow for the owner (a very busy person) to come out from the mid-west to view progress and make design decisions - and sometimes changes. For the above reasons, we are doing the project on a time and materials basis. Seabreeze certainly gets an "A" for flexibility in scheduling around our needs. Albert, his son-in-law Christian, and "the boys" (two crews, sometimes working together) are experienced top-notch pros. Myself and the owner are both very "particular" and we appreciate the high quality work, practical suggestions and the whole team's patience in working with us. I will update this review with photos when the job is completed. read more

As a busy property management company, we have been using Long Beach Builders & Restoration for almost a year on a daily basis. They are reliable, quick and very communicative. They have not let us down, whether it's a big renovation project or everyday maintenance, we 100% rely on their efficiency and friendliness! This company is strongly recommended! Our tenants love their team! read more

As a film/tv prop stylist and designer, my level of detail is high. This team not just met, but exceeded expectations in quality, professionalism, timeliness, and cleanliness in building a new bathroom. An on-site dream team all around of Ramiro, Hugo and Chris -- all who made it their priority to see to my demanding needs! And their attention to detail -- in the work and in the daily clean up -- is top notch. Owner Al addressed every issue promptly and professionally. In working in a 100-year old home there were several unforeseen issues, and yet everyone huddled to address and develop solutions with minimal impact to schedule and budget. I can't emphasize enough that LBBC is the go-to team for any remodel, addition, or overall beautification project. Half-way through the bathroom build out, I hired them for additional work elsewhere in the house! They're that good. On scale of 1-10 with 10 being superior service, this team is a solid 11. Again, being in a design and creative industry, my benchmark is high. Will be hiring LBBC for any and all future construction needs. Equally important: extremely competitive pricing!!! read more

Al and his team removed a load bearing wall, that seprated our living room and kitchen, transforming our space. They offered a fair price and were honest and transparent throughout the project. I would highly recommend LBBR Al and his team for anyone looking for quality on the area. read more

In August I had LBBR do extensive work on deck leaks. The crew was on time, tidy, and easy to work with. I later used a crew member Chris/Christian for a small project and discovered he was unscrupulous. He owes me money, could not provide receipts, and worst of all did not pay the people he used to do the work. If I use LBBR again, I will insist that Chris not be on the project. read more

Al and Obed and crew were all fantastic to work with. The quote was reasonable and we got a few. They started when planned and the work was flawless. Obed was so great about communicating with us, with beautiful work waterproofing our leaky balcony and repairing the drywall in our garage. We would definitely use them for other work on our house and recommend them to our friends and neighbors. read more

We had a leaking window, and Al responded to our inquiry promptly and professionally, even sending the foreman out the same day to assess the repair. The quote was very fair and we were worked quickly in to the schedule which allowed our repair to be completed before an additional rain event. We required both exterior and interior work and couldn't be more pleased with the finished result, as completed by Obed and his crew. It has held up to all additional rain wonderfully. Communication was excellent, courteous, and polite and we will definitely hire LBBC for any future projects! read more

We had some beams in the garage that needed to be replaced. We were very pleased with the quality of the work and the time it took was the same as was quoted. We were so pleased LBBC even added some shelving at no extra cost. Communication was professional and we felt the quality of work was excellent! We will hire LBBC for our next project. read more

This review is about their customer service. I can not speak to their work. I called to get a quote, they said they could come out within the hour, 4 hours later I was still waiting. I text and let them know their guy never showed up and they didn't even bother to respond, explain why, or apologize for wasting my time. I would not hire this company. Beware. read more

Al Sanchez and all of the workers in this company have been excellent! We have used them to remodel our home for the past 10 years room by room. Every single remodel of every single room has been beautiful. They have worked with us in a timely manner for each project and we are extremely happy with the wonderful results. I would hire them to do anything in the house from updating windows to completely gutting kitchens and bathrooms for full modern remodeling. We have referred friends and relatives to Al Sanchez and his workers and all of them have been very happy with their work!! This company is exceptional!!! read more

This is a great Contractor to do business with! We had water damage on our stairs that prevented us using it. They showed up every day till the job was completed. They cleaned up after themselves EVERYDAY! Our HOA was extremely satisfied with their performance and craftsmanship! read more

We needed a master bedroom with bath added to our house, a total of 499 Sq. ft. From the beginning of the project the wireless were prompt, respectful, and most of all, clean. Despite the scope of the work they made a concerted effort to keep the work area neat. As construction progressed (which was very fast) we were kept on the loop as to what they were doing and what was to come. Everything went as smooth as possible from the building side (the only bumps in the road coming from the city inspectors). In the end we ended up with more than we could have imagined. The plans did not prepare us for the finished product. Our master bathroom came out beautiful, only to be outshines by the master bedroom it was connected to. All the work was masterfully done with the utmost care. The crew was awesome. We cannot wait for our next project to begin. Very highly recommended. read more

I am a senior citizen on a fixed income who never had to hire a contractor until January 2024 due to water damage in my kitchen. I turned to Yelp for help and found 5 companies to interview. I settled on Long Beach Building Contractors for 2 reasons: 1) The owner, Al, promised that I could choose the materials I would like at a lower price if I paid for them, and 2) I liked Al's answer when I asked him to name his company's strength which was "skill level." So, I hired Al's company! I was so excited that I set him a picture of my dream kitchen! I was happy to pay for floor tiles, cabinets, countertops, and a porcelain sink which I had picked out at a lower price. However, my excitement started to fade and turn to disappointment for the six reasons listed below: 1) No real contract.- Al had me sign an estimate that I had printed for myself, and called it "the contract." 2) Sent me one worker, although Al had said during the interview that I was getting two workers. What he failed to mention then was that he had other work sites and he was spread thin. I was getting his "best" electrician. The second week, a newly hired worker showed up at my house, but he did not know much about construction. How did I know this? The experienced one had to teach him how to do things each step of the way, slowing things down. 3) According to Al, the working hours were from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm Mondays through Fridays. The workers at my house started at 8:40 am to 3:35 pm. 4) The "contract" stated that I was to pay a deposit and a payment "on the day work begins. The final payment balance would be due upon completion." I understood this, but what surprised me was that Al was charging me at the end of each week. When I inquired about it, the reason was that I had asked too much. Al should have informed me when I sent him the picture of the kitchen I wanted. 5) Al's "best" electrician caused electrical damage in my panel fuse box when he turned off the electricity in the entire house, then tried to turn it on again. The electricity in my bedroom, bathroom, workroom, and the east kitchen wall did not return. Even after two failed attempts by the employee, Al never came on site to see what the problem was. I had to pay a specialist electrician to repair the damage after 12 days of no electricity in those areas named above. 6) By February 16th, the floor tiles, bottom cabinets, countertop, and sink had been put in place. Yet, the kitchen walls had not been painted. Aren't the walls supposed to be painted first before the added items? I did not have a chance to ask the workers that questions because on that same day, my computer was hacked and a large amount of money was taken. I no longer had enough money to pay Long Beach Building Contractors. So, I had to let Al's company go, but before I did, I paid the last payments I owed, one in cash. ( I still have not received the receipt for the cash payment.) I don't know when this whole experience turned into a nightmare. It had started out well. In Response to Al: As mentioned above, I had to call on an electrician who specializes in residential & commercial electrical problems; that is higher than your employee. He did not say about my updating my electrical panel, but he did mention that 4 other fuses had been damaged and replaced those. That's when the electricity returned. Al, you did not even come to see the problem yourself. As to the problem you had about placing the workers I had let go, there really was only one, since the second worker was a novice and had only worked 7 days. If you really want to get a hold of me, send me an email, i still have the same address. You did not even respond to the last one, asking for a receipt for the cash payment . You have sent me receipts only for payments given to you in checks. Thank in advance and good luck to you as well! read more

We used LBBC to do a complete remodel of our new home. The timing worked out and Al and his team were just finishing up a job when we reached out to them. He provided us with a reasonable quote and worked with us when deciding what to do within our budget. He and his team, led by the amazing Walter, ended up: 1. Moving an indoor water heater outside. 2. Gutting and prepping the existing kitchen. 3. New paint throughout. 4. New flooring throughout - even did a fantastic job with our request for VCT in certain areas. 5. Installed recessed lighting. 6. Removed popcorn ceiling and wood paneling. 7. Closed up a large porthole that was between the dining and family room. 8. Created a custom laundry area 9. Installed shower doors and other bathroom fixtures. Walter and the other guys that worked on our house were fantastic. Walter's attention to detail was amazing. We appreciated their work ethic and overall great attitudes. LBBC will be our go to for any work we do in the future! read more

We are once gain very satisfied with the work LBBC did for our 200 sq. ft. addition.  We used LBBC 2 years ago for a kitchen remodel, when we bought our home, and now we trusted Al and his team to do another great job.  My wife and I did our part in the beginning - got quotes from other general contractors, asked lots of questions.  But once again, we chose Al and his team to take on a huge investment for our family.  Al is the real deal when it comes to someone that is willing to sit and listen and make the best recommendations when it comes to the work and financial aspects of construction.  We sat with too many "project managers" before, who don't personally do the work nor know the names of the crew they hire to do a job.  Not the case with LBBC.  Al make's sure that the work done is quality work, done by a team he has worked with for years.  The construction was not easy for our family to endure, especially because we had a newborn in our home.  But we needed the a third bedroom and 1/2 bath for our family.  Al kept our family's needs in mind throughout the process.  Financially, we were able to play our part and select materials and have a say when it came down to finishing details. My wife and I would highly recommend LBBC to take on either large or small projects.  They certainly made the construction process one that we appreciated and not walk away frustrated at the end of the day.  We love our new addition and our home is complete.  Thanks LBBC! read more

I had a leak in a second story balcony that needed to be fixed. The whole balcony needed to be repaired and resurfaced. I contacted Al for a quote and his pricing was very competitive. His team came out a couple of days later and took care of the problem in a matter of days. They did an amazing job, they were extremely knowledgeable, efficient and skilled. The balcony looks brand new. I would highly recommend Al and his team, and will definitely be using them for future projects. read more

Al and his team were very competitive with their pricing, set a schedule and stuck to it, quality of his work was top notch and the communication he provided was second to none. We are currently looking to hire his company again for further work around our building. Thank you sir. read more

We loved working with Al and his team! We removed two walls in our home, which required engineering plans and a permit. Al came in after the walls had been removed and helped us manage the permitting process. Of course, once his team got started, they saw that some of our engineering plans were off, and so then Al worked with the engineer to update the plans and resubmit the permit. It was all very tricky, but Long Beach Builders guided us every step of the way! As for the work - it looks beautiful. They ended up having to tear down our existing ceiling to reinforce all the joists. Al's team did this efficiently. They were always pleasant to have around, and now we have an open, beautiful, well-supported home. Thank you!! read more

True professionalism from the "job walk" and proposal, to the day they handed us back our keys. I've gone through several different contractors on several different jobs and I must say that none have ever passed my "test" much less my wife's (who is very detailed , picky and a pain in the ass) . The crew , was absolutely respectful of our property, very professional, punctual, and just experts at their craft. Their housekeeping was impeccable.There was never a mess during the project and left no mess after. We were left very impressed with the quality of their craft and the results were jaw dropping. It was a complete pleasure working with Al and his crew and plan to contract them for future projects and would highly recommend them. read more

Seabreeze Renovators - Before and after LBBC - General Contractors Near Me

LBBC really came through for us!!!! We were experiencing major water damage coming in to our guest room walls and windows from a horribly sealed and cracked balcony above our guest room. Rain water was getting into walls from cracks at the base of sliding glass windows and pouring down guest room windows and out of baseboards every time it rained (a problem we thought was fixed, but over time realize was not). My husband called LBBC last weekend and left a message about our problem. Al called back the next day and came by our house a day later to assess the problem. Our biggest concern was that a lot of rain was in the upcoming weeks forecast so we knew we had to do something fast. Super knowledgeable and very professional, but also kind, and understanding/sympathetic of our situation, Al gave us a number of solutions and made us feel like not only did he know what he was doing, but that he'd do good work for us, we decided Al and LBBC were the team we needed. That night he had a crew lined up for the day after. The team arrived on time, were extremely professional, and removed all of the tile, resealed and resurfaced the patio, and thoroughly cleaned up, all in a day (came back for about an hour the day after to paint). The rain started last night (and is expected to be consistent for the next 3 days) and there isn't a drop of water in the guest room (and by now there would have been). The wall is dry, the window and baseboards have no sign of water, the work of LBBC was a God send! I can't praise and thank them enough. We have several remodel projects on our list and we really do hope LBBC can take those on too. In a world of shady contractors that often over commitment and under deliver, if they show up at all, Al and is team are consummate professionals and I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND them. Thanks Al and LBBC, Z&Z appreciate your work! read more

Had the smoothest experience with this company from beginning to end.

We had a great experience with Al and the guys at LBBC during our recent kitchen remodel in Lakewood. As we explained our vision for a new living space, their company was able to bring it into existence. Throughout the process they showed respect for our time and home by being prompt each day, getting right to work, and maintaining a clean workspace amid the chaos. They quoted us fairly, guaranteed all their work, and rolled seamlessly with each of the many revisions we had. Communication was easy and always responsive, which showed when they happily returned more than once to make sure the work was done to our complete satisfaction. So if you're looking to be happy with the process and the outcome look no more, Long Beach Building Contractors takes pride in their work and their word, and we have a beautiful space to prove it! read more

Al is amazing! It is so nice to finally have a general contractor I can wholeheartedly recommend - I am very picky and pretty demanding in terms of the level of service I want and Al went above and beyond even my high expectations. From the very first time I called and he was able to come give me a quote the next morning, to the last day of work less than a month later (and exactly on the schedule he gave me, how often does that happen??) his communication was always super fast. We did a kitchen and flooring remodel so he did a fairly extensive demolition and replaced fixtures and prepped our space for the new stuff over about 2-3 weeks, and then came back and put in appliances and the new sink and did lots of lovely detail things like crown molding. (We had our cabinets and floor installed by other people because it was ikea cabinets and a specific floor we wanted from somewhere else but I'm sure Al would have done a great job with those too) His guys always showed up when he said they would (you'd be amazed how often that doesn't happen) and were professional, efficient and nice. Even when he was done with his part of the work, he would quickly send someone out to help if I had a problem that wasn't even his fault, which I appreciated tremendously. And he's also just really friendly and his rate was incredibly good for the service - we got several quotes and his was very reasonable and he's very thorough with his invoicing so you don't have any surprise fees later. I will definitely hire him again if I have any more remodeling to do!! read more

I was having a hard time finding a well recommended handyman, especially one who spoke English. I received a referral for Al Sanchez, of Long Beach Building Contractors. I was worried that a "Licensed Contractor" would be astronomically expensive and would also sub out the work. I couldn't have been more pleased with Al and his guys. I had them repair and refinish my deck, do electrical work and install an outdoor ceiling fan, and also repair my shed doors. His prices were extremely reasonable and Al was the guy doing the hard work....in 103 degree heat! I would highly recommend him to anyone and defintely hire him again! read more

My husband and I purchased a new home in January and contacted Al for an estimate since my brother has used him in the past. We needed a bathroom remodel and kitchen expansion and had a small window to get it done. The estimate was very reasonable and the team got started right away. In fact, our Amazon orders had trouble keeping up with how quickly things were getting done! Al, Walter, and the team did a wonderful job and we are so happy with the results! We ended up adding last minute jobs and Al and Walter were very accommodating to fit that into the schedule without any delays. We will be adding a bathroom to the master bedroom next year and look forward to working with them again. read more

LBBC started work on my property in Long Beach in April 2020. I decided to utilize the services of LBBC for the following: 1. Reinforce my garage with as the sides of the garage was blowing out due to the center beam and dropped. Due to the ceiling cover you can not see the visual evidence inside of the garage of the dropped beam, however it was evident viewing the garage roof from the exterior that the dropped or sagging center beam was the culprit, which in turn caused the sides to bow. This was a hazard and accident waiting to happen. 2. Cement work on the side of the garage to fix the foundation and provided a leveled surface to match the driveway and street level to help eliminate the pooling of rain water in the back yard. 3. Proper drainage in the backyard for any rain that could potentially accumulate in the backyard // garage area. 4. Removing and old warned out front gate (steel). This was replaced by a wooden gate. 5. Paint and repair the front porch. Wooden railing added to the front porch border. 6. Full bathroom with shower // bath tub combination, vanity and toilet, added to the rear bedroom. 7. Relocated the water heater in order to install the new bathroom. Al - was very responsive and even dropped his original quote by roughly $4000 from his original quote. Add'l work added: 8. Gutted out the garage. 9. Patched the garage floor with epoxy. 10. Added in wall panels, insulation, ceiling and new roof to the garage. Plus added new side security door (iron). Added new front garage doors with padlock. 11. Added shower rod & installed shower curtain to the old bathroom. 12. Added door thresholds to the front and back door. 14. Installed new door handle to the old bathroom sliding door (adjusted the alignment on the track). Overall working with Al and his team was great. Al effectively communicated with me regarding the work. There were some delays that were beyond anyone's control due to Covid-19 and the protest against police brutality. Siding on the side of safety was the correct decision. I have already recommended Al and LBBC to a few of my coworkers and will utilizing more services from LBCC after I save some more money for the household upgrades. read more

I hired Al to remodel my kitchen. Nothing but good things to say about his Foreman, Walter and his crew. They were all professional and took their jobs seriously. They were always on time and kept the work area clean and organized. Also appreciated that his crew were respectful of my home cleaning up every day at the end of the work day. I'm very happy with the way my kitchen turned out and you can tell that his crew takes pride in their work as all the finish work looks fantastic. I liked the work so much that I also ended up hiring Al for another job to repair a support beam in my dining room right after my kitchen was finished.

Our house needed some work and Al and Carlos were great. Al was very responsive and actually listened to us when we were describing our concerns with our bathroom and oven cabinet work. He offered a couple of different ways to approach the work which was useful because we had a limited budget. The quote was itemized and you knew exactly what you were getting. Carlos came and did the work and the quality was excellent! He too was a good listener and he was very kind -- which is important because nobody wants to deal with an unpleasant person throughout the day. My son is 4 and can be a little curious, and Carlos was a good sport about it all. Lastly, they also put in a couple of bathroom fans and my wife was concerned we might get some cheap crappy loud ones, but we are thankful they are very quiet and effective. Thank you guys! We will need more work from you in the future again I'm sure. read more
