My family hired Trace Hancock and THS Construction and Design in August 2024 for sealing, painting, and an awning installation. While some work was completed, there were delays, communication challenges, and parts of the project were left unfinished. By October 2024, progress had stopped, and despite follow-up attempts through March 2025, the remaining work was not completed. Some areas also showed issues such as peeling paint and window damage that were not addressed. Unfortunately, a very disappointing experience. read more

Trace was so professional and fantastic to work with. We gutted our kitchen and bathrooms and Trace appreciated our design requests and has impeccable attention to detail. He was on schedule with our renovation and communicative through out the process. His sub contractors also delivered beautiful and detail oriented work--there are no rushed jobs or cutting corners which we appreciated. Trace is also a kind and warm person the be around. He takes pride in his work and loves sharing details about the process with clients. We highly recommend working with TSH Construction read more

Trace is the BEST!!!! I just remodeled my kitchen and it turned out beautiful. Trace offered exceptional advise and paid a lot of attention to detail. All the contractors that he used were excellent and always showed up on time and never left a mess. Trace is always accessible by phone or text and is always on the location to meet with the crew to make sure everything is running smoothly. If you want amazing service and top notch advise I cannot imagine using anyone else but Trace for all my home projects. read more

Talk about exceptional!! Top to bottom perfection. Trace and his team go above and beyond. This team pays attention to every detail, listens to the clients and always is prompt to respond with any questions or needs we had. Trace is very attentive to us and the job. The team always showed up, on time, and ready to work. We never had an issue with scheduling or waiting on parts or anything for that matter. Trace even helped us in a pinch finding us a plumber on a Saturday with pipes bursting. Trace and his team are efficient, friendly, punctual, detail oriented and most importantly do an amazing job. We have always been very happy with his work and never disappointed with the jobs from start to finish. Laura W. read more

Trace Hanock of TSH Construction is absolutely amazing! My husband, Glenn S. hired him to remodel our bathroom. Trace was available from start to finish and even helped design and build custom cabinets for the bathroom. He took all of our ideas, added a few of his own and came up with a concept that exceeded our expectations. We are planning to hiring him again to remodel our kitchen and would highly recommend him to anyone! read more

This is an updated review, as I did not include the breaker box issue in the previous review. Even though it has been 3 years since the job was completed, the feeling of being duped with the breaker box still bothers me. One star since the bathroom functions, but no more than one star, due to the quality of work and overall experience. Trace (TSH Construction) remodeled a bathroom for us a couple of years ago. It looks amazing in pictures, and everything functions, but up close, there are still things that bother us every time we see them, and they remind us of our unpleasant experience working with Trace. Our main issues are: Poor attention to detail (bathroom doesn't look professional up close), and poor communication with Trace. Also just a note that Trace did not seem to be very interested in design ideas that weren't his own. It was hard to communicate with him, b/c he likes to talk more than listen. This quickly became very stressful. Also, on multiple occasions he said he was going to show up at our house to discuss elements of the job, but instead he would send a worker who didn't know what to do about our concerns, therefore we had to wait longer to get them fixed. Some were never fixed. Trace insisted that we get 3 new circuits/breakers, which I didn't understand, since we were upgrading to LED lighting. But we agreed to pay for it. Weeks later, as they were putting the finishing touches on the bathroom, I took a look at the breaker box. I didn't see the upgrades, and I asked Trace if his electrician could point them out. His electrician was never available to show us, and Trace wouldn't/couldn't do it himself. About a month later, we hired an electrician that we know to do some other work, and I asked him if he could identify anything new in our breaker box. There was nothing. We paid Trace extra for something we didn't get! It still bothers me a lot. Other items - poor attention to detail: -The brand new ceiling drywall that they installed was wavy and bulging. They were going to leave it that way and we had to specifically request to get it fixed, so we could have a flat ceiling. We didn't realize stuff like this was a special request, but similar things kept happening. -The new drywall wall behind our new vanity was not straight, and instead of making it flat, they just pushed the vanity up against the bulging wall, and left it that way. We had to specifically request that they come back out and make the wall behind the vanity flush, so there would be no ¾" gap behind the vanity/backsplash on each side. Quite a big gap to just ignore! Now the wall has a weird texture in the area they fixed, which we see every day; a constant reminder of what we had to deal with during the remodel. -They installed the bathtub filler pipes in the wall off-center by 1/2", and started to tile around them. We had to specifically point out to them that they weren't centered, so they could stop the tiling job and fix the valves. -There is a brand new small wall next to the door, which is crooked. It's only about a foot wide, and yet they managed to build it at an angle, which is easily seen by anyone using the bathroom. Kind of a bummer when you are showing off your new bathroom and there's a crooked wall that everyone can see. -Other hardware was not mounted straight. The shower head bar, TP holder, and towel holder were all crooked to the naked eye! Maybe they didn't have a level? I don't understand. -The sink valves were very crooked after they were finished mounting them. We had to adjust them ourselves, by unscrewing the handles and centering them. -After the job was done, he sent an "electrician" to our house, who had not been there before, to swap a light switch for a dimmer switch. The "electrician" was in the bathroom for about 45 minutes working on it, and ended up damaging our wall and leaving a mess on the floor. I'm no electrician, but when we realized that our lights were humming, I decided to try a different brand of dimmer, and install it myself, which took only 15 minutes, (and with no wall damage)! I really don't understand what happened with the guy that he sent, and why they didn't offer to repair the wall. Overall we feel that Trace's extremely poor attention to detail and lack of good communication are the reasons that we would strongly advise anyone against working with TSH Construction. We feel a little taken advantage of, since some of our concerns were never addressed, yet we gave him a lot of money for the remodel. It's been 2 years now, and he still has not addressed some issues. He never showed up to close out the job at the end. We hope we don't discover bigger problems in a few years. read more

Trace completed our JADU in March of 2022. I waited to write this review for a few months just in case issues crept up from the workmanship but we now have a beautiful JADU with top quality finishes. The quality of the work was very good and he completed on budget. I would not hesitate to recommend Trace to anyone. read more

It's interesting that TSH chose to answer my Yelp review 5 years later. As I said in my review, he didn't finish the job and negated our requests. He was paid and he was done. He didn't want to fix the problems. Period. Too bad he treats his clients without respect. He said it was our fault. He's right. We hired the wrong contractor. read more

Trace did an impeccable kitchen remodel for us. We couldn't be happier. It is now the kitchen of our dreams. He was reliable and detail oriented. I appreciated how clean he kept the work areas. He went over and above the call of duty when it came to helping us pick paint colors, countertops, backsplash etc. He was more than patient with my last minute changes. Our home is older (1950's) so there were a lot of electrical and plumbing upgrades needed and those were handled painlessly. If you want a professional contractor.....Trace is your man! read more

TSH Construction and Design - a kitchen with stainless steel appliances - General Contractors Near Me - Encino, California

Trace Hanock of TSH Construction is an amazing contractor! I would give him 5 stars across the board. Trace did a renovation project for me on a duplex in Echo Park, Los Angeles and I was extremely satisfied with the work. Trace came in and saved the day (literally) after I had previously hired a fraudulent contractor who did work that was unpermitted. Because of the fraudulent contractor, I found myself in a situation where two Los Angeles City Housing agencies were on my back to redo and/or fix all the work in the property that was either done wrong or unpermitted. Believe me I was stressed and at my wits end. That's when I found Trace, who came in and saved the day! He was extremely patient, educational and professional and his customer service was off the roof. He assessed my very complicated renovation situation, came up with a step-by-step game plan and literally turned a horrible renovation project and "bad contractor" story around into a beautiful property in a few months time. Trace restored my faith that there are still good contractors in the world. :) My wife and I are extremely happy with Trace's work, his level of detail, communication, and the way he kept us informed- every step of the way. Trace is a one of a kind contractor! I would definitely hire him again and recommend Trace to all of my friends and family. Trust me, you can't go wrong with Trace. You will be able to sleep peacefully at nice, if Trace is behind the wheel. - Kelvin Dickerson, August 10, 2017 read more

Trace was responsible for a major kitchen remodel 5 years ago and I so liked his work that I hired him to do a complicated bathroom remodel. I constantly receive compliments on the quality and design of both of these projects. Trace is highly responsible, thorough, competent, and easy to work with. read more

My partner and I flip homes and it's not easy to find a company that is reliable. TSH Construction did a full kitchen design for us.

Our experience with TSH was great! We had a contractor experience from hell prior to finding Trace and his guys. What a difference. Communication was always clear, concise and on-time. Work was performed as promised, on-time and on-budget. Pricing was extremely competitive. It's so nice to find a contractor you can trust. We will use TSH for any future projects and recommend them to our friends and family. We love these guys! read more

Trace is the Master of Change Orders. We contracted with TSH for a new master bathroom. What a Mistake! He also will not honor his warranty. Beware! read more

Excellent work with top of the line material and dedication to a job well done! I would not go anywhere else for any of my renovation needs. Trace and his team did an absolutely outstanding job on my remodel and I will recommend him to everyone I know! read more

I used TSH for a new roof and to cover my backyard patio. Trace gave me a price that was very competitive and completed the job within less than a week. He was very accessible and responsive whenever I had questions or concerns. I was referred to TSH in our local Nextdoor Group from a neighbor who was very happy with his work and pricing. I am happy to give him and his company a 5 star review and also highly recommend his services. read more

A man is only as good as his word. Trace is a good man. I put my house up for sale about a year after Trace had put a new roof on it. During inspection the buyer complained that it wasn't done correctly. I was upset and called Trace to figure out what he was talking about. It turns out it was just a negotiating tactic but I did not realize that at the time. Trace not only showed up at "group" inspection, but called the manufacturer who also sent a rep. The roof was without issue but the buyer still was unrelenting so Trace went far beyond what anyone expected of him and offered to sign a separate guarantee with the buyer and cover everything even the materials. Deal closed. Incredible. I will never forget him for that. Thanks Trace. read more

I just want to say a few words about Trace Hanock and his TSH construction. Trace recently remodeled our kitchen. We are so pleased with the results. The job came in only slightly over budget and on time. His work crews are very well trained, friendly and skilled. The mess was confined to the kitchen as they screened off the rest of the house with plastic drapes. Trace went with us to pick out the tile, granite and appliances. We could not be more pleased with the job. We highly recommend Trace for any remodeling job. read more
