    Remove window to downstairs wall, WIP for skylight, WIP large window
    Jennifer L.

    We asked Mark to help us renovate our nursery. This room was very dark with single paned walls, and a wall that had a window connecting to downstairs. We asked for a skylight, remove the window to downstairs, replace other window with larger window, make the walls double for shelving, remove a closet, add dry wall, and prep room for us to paint. They showed up around 8am every day, added paper to the floor to keep the house clean, worked very quiet, and completed the job in a couple days! There was a miscommunication once and they renegotiated so we only had to pay for materials, but removed a ton of dry wall and redid some of the walls to have shelving. I really loved working with Mark and his crew because they were nice, fast, and did a great job - we got tons of quotes and everyone was around 15K, then Mark gave us a quote of 6K and I'm glad we took the risk (because I didn't see any reviews on Yelp) because they did a great job! I would absolutely hire them again in the future when we renovate the rest of our house. We were able to save a ton of money that can be used on the baby and other nursery renovation needs. I'm just extremely grateful for Mark and his crew because the price was fair, they were professional, and I appreciate how quickly they got the job done. Thank you Mark! I hope this review gets you more future clients - you and your team are awesome!

    Old kitchen

    I would highly recommend YC Builders. From beginning to end, Mark was amazing to work with. He clearly explained every step of the process and the work being done. His communication was outstanding--he was always available by phone or text and consistently worked around my schedule, which I really appreciated. Mark also coordinated directly with my building's management company, making everything incredibly easy on my end. The entire process felt seamless. He completed the work incredibly fast, allowing us to move in much sooner than expected. Most importantly, Mark truly listens. He works with you to understand your needs and helps guide decisions around design, cost, and the overall scope so you get what's best for you and your family. Absolutely recommend!

    Bathtub that was replaced with a shower.

    Mark and his team are very efficient and provide top notch work. From meeting with Mark the first time, I could tell that he was an honest person. With his years of experience, he worked with me and informed me of what would work based on what I needed. He didn't try to upsell me on things that were unnecessary and impractical based on the layout of our bathroom. The quality of the workmanship was awesome. Every piece of tile and wood was cut and shaped perfectly to sit flush with the surroundings. You could tell that they have been doing this type of work for a while. When the pre-existing issues of faulty valves were uncovered when prepping to install the new vanity and toilet, Mark stuck to the originally quoted price and repaired the valves free of any additional charge. I appreciate the honesty and worksmanship of YC Builders and I would definitely recommend them to anybody looking to do any type of renovation.

    New with safety bats

    Mark was unbelievably helpfull. Remembered what I wanted from last year. Helped pick material with us. Very professional. Finished shower and toilet in 2 and a half days, while other contractors said would take a week. Shower is beautiful way better than I thought. I recommend them highly.

    Mark and the YC Builders team renovated our master bathroom. From the start Mark was attentive, friendly, responsive, and such a positive person we decided to go with YC Builders and we are so happy we did. The bathroom looks absolutely stunning! Renovating a bathroom from its original form since 1992 was a huge task which YC Builders met and exceeded. From the Tub removal to relocation of plumbing, new window install and cabinet/sink/countertop upgrades, the end result was absolutely amazing. Mark and team also opened up the space to afford more lighting, again with outstanding results. The team arrived daily on time, and was thoughtful to provide protection to the flooring, and cleaned up daily any residue from the demolition and installation. Mark and YC Builders has our absolute trust and the value of the work was also outstanding. I will definitely trust YC Builders for any future General Contractor jobs.

    Excellent service. Came right away although it was not an emergency. Honored quoted service fees…read more Stayed all day to complete the job.

    We hired E I Electrical to replace a few switches in our condo because our previous electrician was…read moreacquired by this company. They were able to come and inspect the work within a short notice and provided us with an on-site estimate. Everything seemed satisfactory until I was informed that the estimate would include a yearly fee for any future work. This fee would automatically provide us with a built-in discount for subsequent services. This was the first indication that something was amiss. Why would I want to pay an annual fee for work that had already been completed? Another peculiar aspect of their pricing was the flat rate fixed price for each item. They offered a similar approach to car repairs, where a flat rate is charged for parts like a quarter panel or hood. For an outlet in a switch, they had a flat fixed rate. They assured us that this included labor and materials. However, they failed to mention that they sourced the cheapest possible materials. They also stated that I could purchase the materials myself, but I lacked the time to do so. Consequently, I ended up having cheap switches, even though the price seemed exorbitant in my opinion. Given the urgency of the project, I had no choice but to agree. However, this is when the problems began. The project was initially promised to be completed in a day and a half or two at the most. Surprisingly, it took four days to complete the work. They arrived at the site by midday every day and proceeded to shop for materials for that day. Essentially, they had four half-day workdays. The workmanship was rated a 4.5 out of 10 on a scale of 1 to 10. The finish work was quite disappointing. They made numerous holes and neglected to save the drywall pieces to fit them back in, leaving me with a mess of mismatched drywall. They claimed they didn't typically put it back, but they didn't inform me of this when I agreed to hire them. To make matters worse, when I tried to reach the office staff or another representative they initially mistook me for a salesperson or someone trying to hassle me until I proved my identity as a customer. This was quite frustrating. It seemed like they prioritized their profits over my satisfaction. The phone representative kept talking and refused to listen. I don't believe he knew how to listen effectively. Fortunately, I received a call from the owner one day. He was quite pleasant, but it was evident that he has a personnel issue. I would never hired this company again and would never recommend them to anyone. On top of the shoddy work and unethical behavior, they attempted to double-charge me for my services. I noticed a second charge for a similar amount on my credit card, and initially, they denied it. I insisted they investigate the matter, as I had sent them a screenshot of my credit card. Eventually, they admitted to the mistake reversed the charges. Neither the owner nor the project manager called to apologize. In my opinion, their work, ethics, and overall business practices are extremely sloppy, unfriendly to customers, and unprofessional.

    Johnny Le of Grand Hawaii Electric is my first choice for electrical work. This was my third time…read moreusing his services, and once again, I had an excellent experience. A light in my rental condo's bathroom vanity was not working properly. Johnny provided a clear quote for diagnosing the issue and was transparent about the costs before arriving. His communication was excellent, and he accommodated a last-minute appointment change based on my schedule. He quickly diagnosed and repaired the faulty ballast, and I'm very happy with the result. Johnny is professional, reliable, responsive, and straightforward about pricing. I highly recommend him for electrical work!

    Amazing company and owner. Long story short, wasn't getting any power from the grid (HECO)…read more Luckily, I have a PV solar system that was powering my house for 5 days. Requested HECO to come out and discovered the 100 amp breaker melted the plastic behind it and basically fell apart. Requested an electrician on Memorial Day and Johny responded very quickly and came out right away. Obviously checked the reviews prior to requesting him. Anyways, by just providing him a picture he could tell just the breaker needed replacing instead of the whole panel, which would've costed thousands. Johny is super knowledgeable and friendly. He ended up checking all my breakers and if there were any overload. Basically made sure everything is safe and up to par. Got everything done within an hour including having HECO come back to reenergize my house. Everything is back to normal again. So thank you very much Johny and Grand Hawaii Electric. I will for sure be using their services again if necessary. Check the other reviews. You wont be disappointed.

    Excellent Service When We Needed It Most!…read more Sparky and Sons came to our rescue just 30 minutes after I called them, the morning after Hurricane Lala came through! I was dealing with an electrical crisis, and they were able to come out right away when so many people were understandably dealing with storm-related problems. As it turned out, the biggest issues were because HECO had not yet restored our full power. Even so, Sparky and Sons provided a safe temporary fix to get us through. They were knowledgeable, thorough, professional, and, best of all, genuinely pleasant to deal with. I will definitely call them again, and I highly recommend Sparky and Sons to anyone looking for great service, without having to wait until Christmas to get it! Thank you, Sparky and Sons, for coming through when we really needed you!

    Mahalo nui loa to Clayton and his team!! Excellent service with incredible attention to detail,…read morevery friendly and a masterful technician. We have a pretty sizable house that needed a LOT of work, and he was able to diagnose and educate us on what regulatory requirements needed to be met, very quickly. We had outlets replaced and updated as needed, assistance with light fixtures and ceiling fans, and a couple electrical issues corrected. Some of this happened to coincide with a power outage, so he even came back after it was over to double check everything! Mahalo for going above and beyond for us!! 10/10 recommend and will never use another electrician company again!
