That's all folks! Our ADU project with A+ Construction & Remodeling is complete. Yay!…read moreBuilding an ADU in California involves obtaining permits, going through various inspections, connecting to utilities and making various corrections along the way to meet the city's requirements. Once construction began, it was fun to watch week by week as things progressed. The house at the framing stage was tiny and awkward in the yard but once finished it had transformed into a small home that was always meant to be there. The construction crew was very professional. Sergeii and his team maintained a very clean work site throughout the entire construction process. I was worried about this prior to starting construction but they did a great job maintaining a clean work site. This is going to be a great addition to our property!

We hired A+ for an ADU project and our experience quickly turned into a nightmare before they even…read morebroke ground. We were specifically told solar would NOT be required for our ADU size, and that if we signed before tariffs took effect, material prices would not increase. After taking our deposit and multiple payments, they later claimed solar was suddenly required and attempted to pass the added costs onto us. After we pushed back and pointed out the misrepresentation, the company became extremely adversarial instead of acting like a contractor working for their client. They then started introducing change orders, additional fees, and attempted to replace the original agreement with a new contract containing major changes to homeowner rights, stricter payment terms, increased fees, and language designed to protect the contractor -- not the customer. At this point we've had to retain legal counsel and file a complaint with the Contractor's State Licensing Board I strongly recommend that anyone considering this company carefully review every document, verify every verbal promise in writing, and consult an attorney before signing anything.

I didn't have repair done, but was very happy with the service call. I can't confirm the quality…read moreof work that Nancy wrote about. I had a pipe burst inside a wall. Because there was mold. my contractor suggested I contact C-Tech to assess. They tried to fit me into their after-hour schedule, but they couldn't. I appreciate that! They came first thing in the morning however. After assessing the damage, they recommended that I don't use their service and save myself some money because the affected area is not that big and that any contractor should be able to take care of it. Very professional! And I appreciate the honesty!!! And no cost for the assessment. They could have done their usual mold abatement process and I would not have been the wiser if it was required or not. I would use them again if the need ever arise again.

I have lived in a Lennar home for three years now in Rancho Cordova. Same homes as the EDH, just…read moredifferent location. Lennar shuffles their employees around the region and uses the same contractors. The sales staff is wonderful and informative. Before moving in, we went through an inspection and I had to have things corrected like improperly wired items. When the house was done, there was issues with the water draining (it clogs up), the toilets not flushing, cracks in the ceiling and water damage through vents. My main issue is that there have been three customer service techs assigned to the area in three years. They make you submit a claim online and then they ignore it or tell you that you're the problem for your issue. It's a new home-- it's clearly issues they need to fix, especially when the neighbors get together on websites like Nextdoor.com and realize they all have the issue. I don't like being shined on from a minimum-wage paid service tech. Calls to corporate go unanswered and I'm shuffled around throughout their organization. I get lots of letters in the mail from lawyers who are soliciting clients for a law suit against the company and although I've never been they type to seek resolution through litigation, I may have to consider it. Just overall, poor, poor service.

We used CCEDA to apply for a $40k CalHFA ADU grant and it was dispersed using Dixieline. After…read moreextensive research and collecting several quotes after site inspections, GJ Gardner was chosen for our build because they had the most experience building house-quality ADUs, were the most affordable for this type of build, and were the only ones familiar with the process required to utilize the grant funds. Despite the all-too-common construction delays throughout the stages of the project, including large staffing changes, Lisa and Aaron worked closely with us in providing detailed updates and remaining available for calls/text/emails when needed urgently. Many surprise obstacles had to be dealt with, including old burst pipes that flooded the site after a storm, but they worked with us and our insurance adjuster, as well as the city, to get everything covered and back on track. We love how the ADU turned out! We had custom changes made to the Irvine model so that it had a proper laundry room, was ADA friendly with a special tub and spacing in the bathroom, and we also had a lot of extra cement work which Lisa/Aaron helped contract out for us after collecting bids. Absolutely thrilled with the results - helping make the longer build time a distant memory!
