His entire team takes tremendous pride in their work. I had Tony as the Project Manager, and he's exceptional. I renovated...well, more like rebuilt an entire house other than three walls, which were intentionally left to grandfather the existing property lines. The project was more expensive than initially estimated, largely due to the cost of goods rising with the pandemic. I'm super pleased with the house. It's a modernized, beautiful beach house, completely gentrified from the former worn-out depleted place. This team is above board with the contracting model. They show you all the expenses and are above board on their costs, meaning the percentage they take relative to sub-contractors. I never for a second wondered about the expenses, as much as I was frustrated (like everyone else) with the 'price of lumber and steel' :) > I highly recommend Rellion Homes and hope to do another project with them again. **Comment from Rellion Homes:** > Thank you so much for your kind words, Evelyn! It's such a pleasure and honor to work with you on this amazing project. You are definitely one of best clients we have ever had. Great taste, quick decision-making, and quick responsiveness. Can't wait for another project with you! **★★★★★ — Kaaren Hall, Dec. 2021** > Rellion Homes has helped me several times over the years with projects in my home. Each time I receive a pre-work bid and we agree to that from the start. They have always honored their bid! The quality of their work is exceptional. They think of all the little details a homeowner may not think of like tile borders and matching molding. Their crew is polite and on-time. You don't always get that with sub contractors!! Of course, remodeling can be a mess, but the crew cleans up after themselves. I've never been left wondering about the status of the various projects. Their communication is above-average. I highly recommend Rellion to anyone considering a remodel! Top quality! **★★★★★ — janzahn, March 2021** > We worked with Lin He and Rellion, Inc. on a property in Newport Beach, CA. The home was a 1963 Mid-Century Modern that needed updating and rejuvenation. After Lin purchased the property with owner financing, he designed and built a beautiful new masterpiece that complemented the original style with new grace and luxury. We are very proud to have played a role in adding to the home's role in the neighborhood, and delighted to see the rewards of Lin's hard work. The financing was handled with pure professionalism, and the process was a pleasure every step of the way. We highly recommend Lin He and Rellion, Inc. as a person of great integrity, charm, ingenuity and style. We would very gladly work with him again should circumstances arise. > --Jan Z. and Tom P. **Comment from Rellion Homes:** > Thank you Jan! We loved working on this project and are grateful you are happy! **★★★★★ — Brian Kurnow, Dec. 2020** > It was a pleasure working with the whole Rellion team and will definitely use them again for future construction projects. Their scope was pretty significant, adding a new unit to my house along with a significant "facelift" of the existing house. The construction process took about 7 months with minimal delay and the end result looks fantastic! It not to say the whole process went perfectly as you can anticipate for a major construction job, but the Rellion team was always responsive and respectful and most importantly made things right with no hassle at all. Tony the project manager was amazing throughout the whole process, and Lin the company owner has a lot of integrity and runs a very respectable company, something that can be all to rare in the construction industry. > > In all, the Rellion team was nothing but professional, fair and responsive. > > Thanks for my "new" house! **Comment from Rellion Homes:** > Thank you Brian! We definitely enjoyed working on this project! **★★★★ — Chris D, April 2018** > We worked with Rellion on a house addition and full remodel. Tony and team were dedicated and did quality work. **Comment from Rellion Homes:** > Thank you Chris! The team here at Rellion loved working with you! **★★★★★ — Deborah Cuthbert, March 2018** > Very pleased customers! > > Rellion had two months to complete a partial renovation on our home and did so brilliantly. Contractor Lin He, designer Helena Zann and project manager, Tony Martinez, were constantly updating us while they researched, designed, and built a wine storage nook, entertainment wall, new kitchen countertop and island, new marble fireplace, completely redesigned bathroom and new flooring throughout the house. They also replaced all the hardware, painted the entire interior and designed and installed a gorgeous built-in barbecue. We are admittedly picky customers and their designs and craftsmanship exceeded our expectations. > > Helena was such a pleasure to work with. She made a point to be available each day to discuss, draw and fine tune design ideas, listening openly and offering knowledgable guidance with terrific attention to detail. She was able to find exceptional stone slabs and other materials for our project. > > Tony was great at problem solving, paid close attention to detail and was considerate and courteous at all times. > > Lin was committed to helping us keep within our budget and always offered complete transparency of all costs. > > We are absolutely delighted with Rellion's work, will definitely use them again and wholeheartedly give them a 5+++ rating. Thank you, Rellion!! **Comment from Rellion Homes:** > Thank you Deborah! We're so happy we completed this project in the time frame you requested! **★★★★★ — Marcia Holdsworth, Feb. 2018** > Great people to work with. They communicate very well and that is extremely important. And their response time is "right away". There are always problems in any remodeling work and good communication is key to keeping the work flowing and emotions cool. They excel at that. They also know what works and what does not and can advise accordingly. **Comment from Rellion Homes:** > Thank you Marcia! We appreciate the positive feedback about our team! **★★★★★ — Sognare Tile, Stone & Sinks Co., Feb. 2017** > I had an opportunity to work with Jonathan and his team for a project that they did in Corona Del Mar. Professionalism is the key to all business relationships and I was truly impressed by how professional the folks of Rellion Homes were throughout the entire process. At all times, they were in constant communication with me regarding their requirements for the project - it was refreshing to see the level of commitment and dedication that they had towards finding the perfect tiles for their client! It was an absolute joy working with Rellion Homes & I look forward to working with them again on future projects! **Comment from Rellion Homes:** > Thank you! It was great working with your company as well. Looking forward to more projects together! **★★★★★ — Infinity Concrete, Jan. 2017** > We had the pleasure of working with Rellion on a project a few months back. They reached out to get some decorative finish works done and throught the initial meet up to discuss scope of work all the way through install and follow up they had great communication, kept their word, very straightforward and honest which can be HIGHLY rare these days in the construction trade. I've been dealing with GC's/Builders/Developers etc for over 15 years and I will say they are top notch and I highly recommended them, and will work with them again any day!!! Thanks for being great Rellion **Comment from Rellion Homes:** > Thank you! We love getting feedback like this! We hope to work again with you soon! **★★★★★ — judymreyes, Dec. 2016** > I have had the pleasure of knowing and working with Lin He for over 5 years. Lin and his team are totally > professional and do quality work! > He is well known and respected in the community for his professional approach and finished product. When escrow opens you can be 100% assured that it will close on or before > the scheduled date. His success rate > Is also 100% closing all his transactions hassle free. Lin is a talented licensed contractor who can do anything from minor repairs/upgrades to a major remodel or add on to existing structure. > Lin is honest, reliable, talented and I highly recommend him!! **Comment from Rellion Homes:** > Thank you Judy! We're so happy to hear this, happy to know our hard work is appreciated! **★★★★★ — Francisco Sanchez, Dec. 2016** > FDS Electrical Contractors has had the pleasure of doing business with Rellion Homes and the experience has been excellent. The company is very professional, respectful and thorough. They are always on time and quality comes first over quantity. I highly recommend this company. **★★★★★ — JJAB Design, Dec. 2016** > I am a Building Designer and have worked with Lin for a year now and have had a great experience with him. **Comment from Rellion Homes:** > Thank you! We're looking forward to more projects with you! ## Selected projects - [Contemporary Coastal Craftsman Style Custom Home - Costa Mesa](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/contemporary-coastal-craftsman-style-custom-home-costa-mesa-pj-vj~756167) - Location: Costa Mesa, CA - Photos: 17 - Description: This is a ground up custom home build in eastside Costa Mesa across street from Newport Beach in 2014.
