Although necessary we had a contract, our project was based on trust and respect. His initial quote was a bit higher than my other quotes, but he committed to staying on budget and came through 100%, no hidden costs and actually added a few essential items during the remodel at minimal cost. His main on-site PM, Obed was innovative, gave constructive feedback, and easy to work with. Our project was slated for 4 months. Came in at about 4 1/2 with some materials delays not due to Pat's crew. Lastly, if you contact Patrick, feel free to ask for my reference, would be happy to show his work.

We have worked with Datum Builders (Pat) on two major remodels. His work speaks for itself. He is…read moredetailed oriented, thorough and most important stays on budget and schedule. His team is trustworthy. We always felt comfortable leaving any of his employees in our house. He was always a phone call away if there was a question or a concern. He worked with us on our time schedule and is fair and reasonable. His price may not be the lowest bid, but his work is impeccable and he comes in on budget unlike other contractors that come in low to start but then significantly overrun the project. His architecture background was key in both of our projects. We were able to utilize his expertise and spare the expense of hiring a separate architect. We can't say enough good things about Pat and his team.

Jorge and his team did a total remodel of our 1940's home, all the way to the studs, including new…read moreelectrical and plumbing. The project was daunting, so much so that flippers wouldn't even submit offers on this home pre-remodel. The design was ours, but the work was 90% done by his team or subs (except the roof, retaining walls, and some tile work). We would do it again with Jorge! He listened to my wife and I equally. He fixed mistakes they made, even if just misunderstandings. He made counter-recommendations to help us manage costs. His primary team Jose and David were always helpful and their cleanup was exemplary. It is important to be fair and communicate that he takes on too many projects, so the timelines proposed were not nearly close. As they say, "Good, Fast, Cheap; Pick two." He was Good and Cheap(ish).

We couldn't be happier with our experience working with Jorge and the entire Tierra Nexus Team!…read moreThey go above and beyond to ensure everything is done right--not just during the project but even after it's completed. Anytime we need help, they are there for us, always willing to fix things and make sure we're satisfied. The only challenge is getting enough time with them (which speaks to how in demand they are!), but when they're on-site, they give 110%. Great people, exceptional craftsmanship, and a truly reliable team. We remodeled our entire home with Tierra Nexus and highly recommend them!

He also has a great eye for aesthetics, just look at his portfolio compared to others.

When we initially purchased our home back in 2017 we hired Nabil to replace all of the flooring in…read moreour home. We only had a one week window from the day we closed until our movers were scheduled to arrive because our short term lease was up, which was really stressful. We needed over 3k sq foot of flooring installed and Nabil and his team did an amazing job. Not only were they able to get all the flooring installed but also all of the last minute requests that I came up with, such as, painting the entire interior of the house, installing new electrical outlets, hanging TVs etc. Nabil was very patient with me and was fair on pricing. After such a great experience we decided to hire Nabil again to remodel our master bathroom and build me a one of a kind detached home office. Once again he and his team exceeded my expectations and accommodated all of my changes and additions along the way. By the end, he completely renovated the entire master suite and he even built a gorgeous deck off the side of my office. Due to Covid related impacts to the global supply chain we encountered many challenges when it came to sourcing materials. Nabil and Shannon were there to help us navigate, pivot and find alternatives at every obstacle. Were there snags and unexpected delays along the way? Sure, but they were due to the manufacturing/sourcing delays and without Nabil's help it would have been far worse. Some of the delays actually ended up being a blessing in disguise because Nabil helped us find alternative products that we ended up loving even more than our original choices! I have worked with many contractors throughout my life and when you find someone that you can trust to do things right, with high quality workmanship and pride in what they do, it's worth every penny. I sleep well knowing everything was done to code and it looks amazing.

He initially did our…read morefloors in august 2021 while we were away for our wedding and he recently did our dream master bath in April 2022.

I trust Nabil and look forward to having him do our kitchen remodel and guest bathroom in the near future! He also remodeled my parents rental home which looks amazing! Thank you for everything!

He responded to my message immediately and even came out the same morning to measure my kitchen for new cabinets. The estimate was very reasonable, cabinets were ordered promptly and arrived sooner than expected.

The whole process took 4 1/2 weeks (which would have been shorter had we not gone out of town) when other estimates were at least 6 weeks. We're v happy with the results of our project!

Unfortunately, not his fault, it was not three days in a row since one panel was back ordered but is flexibility to come and work as soon as it arrived was very appreciated. Very thorough and careful workmanship. You will not find a better kitchen remodeling contractor! Make sure to ask him for recommendations for plumbing and electricity coworker- he does great work if you need stuff moved around before the cabinet work is done. Side note: these are mantra cabinets. One of the products he works with.
