When it came time to remodel our kitchen, we did our research and decided to work with 5blox. From…read morethe start, I appreciated how proactive and communicative they were. Each day, they kept us updated on what was happening, who would be at the house, and what to expect. Any concerns or questions I had were answered immediately, and they worked closely with us to ensure we got exactly what we wanted within our space. What really stood out to me was their willingness to collaborate. They didn't just stop at the design; they helped us with everything, even coordinating with electricians and plumbers when needed. The daily communication was something I wasn't expecting, and it truly made a difference. Although the project did run a bit longer than initially planned--due to holidays and some weather delays--we are absolutely thrilled with the results. Our new kitchen is everything we envisioned and more. We couldn't be happier with 5blox, and I highly recommend them for anyone looking to remodel!

While the process could have been a major headache, 5blox handled everything for us, making it as stress-free as possible.

They even came up with a brilliant solution to squeeze an island into our small kitchen space, and we absolutely love the new layout of our home. Photo attached for reference! The attention to detail, creative problem-solving, and professionalism throughout the project were outstanding. This review is long overdue. I highly recommend 5blox to anyone considering a remodel.

I had a house fire and needed a CUSTOM WHOLE HOUSE re build. I had another contractor I was going to work with but heard one thing about Geovanny from a neighbor who had their house remodeled from him...they said he always fixes his mistakes if you find issues. That to me is GOLD in a day and age where contractors just leave you hanging dry. Geo gave me a bid and stuck with that bid. He didn't upcharge me as time went on. I am a designer at heart and everything in my house is custom...kitchen design, fireplace, kitchen hood, cabinet, bathroom showers, stairs....EVERYTHING...and Geo made it all happen. I hired a separate glass railing stair company who SCAMMED me but Geo helped me get what I could and came up with ideas with Tavo to make it work. Out of the kindness of his heart, Geo also gave me dream bathrooms at his expense. There's NO way I could have the house I have without him and Tavo. If you know exactly what you want, they can make it happen. Was it a problem free experience? It never is....BUT Geo will talk through issues and do what he can to fix every concern I have and continue to. Are they perfect? No human is, but what I was looking for is someone who would be willing to finish the work and not run away when issues arise. I would recommend hiring Sheena to help with all the design work and make sure that there is VERY clear communication between parties. Visit the project regularly to make sure everything is the way that you want it and vocalize any concerns you have. Geovanny has the best heart and I would hire him again.

We had a vision, and Mike brought it to life!…read more We've tackled our fair share of remodel projects over the years, but nothing quite prepared us for the leap into a complete, ground-up ADU build. We knew this wasn't a project to hand off to just anyone, we needed a true expert, someone who could steer us through every twist and turn with confidence. That's exactly what we found in Mike. From our very first meeting, Mike had a calm, reassuring presence that told us we were in good hands. He listened closely to our vision, asked the right questions, and laid out a clear path forward that immediately put our minds at ease. And trust us, our minds needed easing, we came to him with a steady stream of nervous, sometimes repetitive questions, and he never once made us feel like a burden. He answered every single one with patience, warmth, and genuine reassurance. Communication was a true highlight of working with Mike. He kept us updated at every stage, so we always knew exactly where things stood. What could have been an incredibly stressful, all-consuming process instead felt manageable, even exciting. He also took the reins on coordinating with city inspectors throughout the entire build, handling all the back-and-forth so we didn't have to lift a finger. That alone lifted a massive weight off our shoulders. And the icing on the cake? He finished the entire project ahead of the estimated timeline, without ever cutting corners on quality or care. If you're on the fence about a big build like this, let us save you the trouble: call Mike. He turned what could have been an overwhelming experience into one we're genuinely grateful for, and the final result speaks for itself. We couldn't recommend him more highly.

I reached out to MDM back in early 2025 and met with Mike right away so he could look at my…read moreproperty and walk me through what my wife and I wanted for our project. Throughout the entire process, Mike was very professional and the level of expertise he exhibited was obvious. Before Mike, I had met with 3 other contractors to compare services and quotes but what sealed the deal for me was the 3D render service Mike offered. It was affordable and it would be free if you end up going with MDM for your remodel. Mike was able to get the renderings to me very quickly and made adjustments whenever we wanted to change something. Seeing the details of the renderings really brought what we were envisioning to life and helped with the design process. Fast forward to beginning of demo/construction, Mike's employees were impressively fast and efficient at their jobs, but what really impressed me was how clean they kept our property after each day of work. And that stated true throughout the entire process of our 7 month renovation. During construction, if there were any last minute changes, Mike would always try to cater to our needs whenever possible. Even if subcontractors made mistakes with anything, Mike would make sure it is fixed and perfect right away. Keep in mind, you can't rely on Mike for everything (as much as you might want to). You really do have to do your research (in terms of design, finishing materials, sourcing those materials, and getting them delivered on time) and know exactly what you want and how you want it, that way, Mike can plan and put into action what needs to be done. After this entire process, we are extremely happy we got this project completed with MDM. What really sets them apart is the quality of work, dependability, and the great people that work for MDM. Shoutout to Mario! They really respected our home and were very considerate of us during construction. Even after everything was finished, they guaranteed that they would come back and fix anything that needed fixing. Cannot recommend them enough if you want to improve or build your new home!

They did a fantastic job and in 2021 I hired him again to upgrade my hallway bathroom. Again, they did a fantastic job! This year I called Rick to discuss the growing crack in my medicine cabinet and how best to fix it. His solution was a custom-made medicine cabinet that kept the mirrored door that I liked!! Now I have a beautiful medicine cabinet with no cracks!!! I also talked with him about a problem with the French doors in my garage. Leaves, dirt, and water would get in the garage because the bottom of the doors did not fit properly to the garage floor. Plus, since the doors were wood, they were falling apart. He came up with a solution I liked, and his company started on it. They replaced the doors with non-operation vinyl French doors, and they put a concrete curb in the doorway and covered it with a black metal flashing. It looks fantastic and nothing is getting into my garage from the doors! The Carpenter's Son Construction team are professional, talented, and the only construction folks I am interested in hiring!!

Elena guided me throughout the design process and worked closely with me to make sure I was happy with my choices. Their workmanship and attention to detail were top notch and they were very respectful of my property, as well as my privacy. Their crew was extremely talented, and Dmitry was very hands on and knowledgeable. As with any remodel, there were a few small surprises, but Pulsar came up with solutions and made any alterations necessary.

The project ran about six months. The short version: we'd hire them again. The longer version: Jacob, the design lead, is the reason we went with them. He has a genuine passion for old buildings and pushed to preserve original details that another contractor would have torn out without a second thought. That instinct matters when you're working on something irreplaceable. Ken managed the project more quietly but kept things moving. And when issues came up after the job was done -- after the final check had been cashed -- Jacob, Ken, and the owner Sage came back and made it right. That's not nothing. That's actually rare. Were there setbacks? Yes. If you've hired contractors in LA, especially on older properties, you know what you're signing up for. New Dawn isn't immune to that reality. They're not the cheapest option and not the most expensive either. But they're the kind of crew that stands behind their work, and in this city, that's worth writing a review about.

We began our Culver City project with a plan to renovate our existing three-bedroom, one-bath home and convert our garage into an ADU. What started as a 325-square-foot garage ultimately became a beautifully designed 705-square-foot one-bedroom ADU. Throughout the process, EG's consistently exceeded our expectations. The quality of the craftsmanship was outstanding, but equally impressive was the team's communication and guidance. Their insights helped us make smart decisions that balanced our budget with our desire for thoughtful design and high-quality materials. As the project neared completion, our confidence in the partnership led us to take on an additional phase--adding flexible living space to the existing home. Technically a JADU, this unique addition transformed our front home into a four-bedroom, two-bath residence, while also creating the option to close off the rear portion and generate rental income in the future. None of this would have come together without the collaborative approach of Eric, the owner, and the entire EG's team. Their professionalism, creativity, and commitment to doing things the right way made a complex project enjoyable and successful. A special thank you to Eric, Andy, Oscar, Lalo, Abner, Uriel, and Hugo, along with all of the expert partner contractors who contributed to bringing our vision to life. We are thrilled with the results and highly recommend EG's Built Construction to anyone looking for a team that combines quality craftsmanship with integrity, communication, and true partnership.

Our project was upgrading the cantilever balconies on 4 townhouses. We interviewed 4 different…read morecontractors and landed with Gilbert Rocha Construction. Let me add that we previously had the other 3 balconies done in 2022. These other 3 we took the lead on organizing the different contractors for the different work (i.e., demo, structure, electrical, plumbing, railings, flooring, stucco etc). The goal this time was not to be involved and have Rocha take point. Initially, it felt like we had made a good choice, but then we had a pause in having work done. Upon checking in we learned Gilbert was in the hospital. His wife Marie assisted with getting work moving forward. Gilbert was not seen for about 6 weeks. And during this time we had many days when no work was done. Once Gilbert was back he was not the same. We had to spend many hours tracking work and what needed to be done to keep the project moving, along with the bookkeeping, when he asked for a large amount over what was owed. The project took longer than initially projected, which we were ok with to get a good end product. Once the balconies were finished, final payment made, we asked for warranty information, Gilbert Rocha said he would forward. Warranty information was never received after multiple emails requesting. Not even 6 months later our railings are rusting at the welding joints. Gilbert Rocha's emails bounce back and the numbers are not in service. He may be out of business, but we still deserve to have a warranty to have the safety of railings corrected.

Gilbert coordinated the work to run smoothly and was available every step of the way. Emerson made my tiled floors and walls look like art. Héctor is a gem. He is the project manager who stepped in for various tasks. Everything Héctor did was done with precision and care. He and Gilbert made sure each team of workers left the area clean and made sure I was happy with the work. I made payments as the job progressed and knew exactly what I was paying for. The job ended within the time frame Gilbert had estimated, even with the extra work I asked for. Gilbert Rocha is a man of his word. I love my bathrooms!
