Carlos has been a game-changer for us! **★★★★★ — Cesar Rivera, Aug. 2023** > I had fantastic experience with Ingenious General Construction.

Their meticulous attention to detail and efficient work left me in awe, and I'm now able to make the most of the remaining summer days. The happiness of my wife and kids knows no bounds. The dedication to excellence shown by Ingenious General Construction is truly commendable. I'm grateful for their exceptional craftsmanship and eagerly look forward to upcoming projects. Without a doubt, I will continue recommending their services to my family and friends. **★★★★★ — Diana, June 2023** > Carlos and his team has done an excellent job remodeling outside of our property: building a free standing wall, replacing grass with turf, repairing road in front of our property, repairing irrigation system, and planting trees. Everything was done in timely fashion and excellent quality. Carlos was always responsive to our questions and concerns and make helpful suggestions. Overall, strongly recommend. **★★★★★ — Kathy S., May 2023** > We needed to redo our backyard (mostly involving building a wood deck, retaining wall, turf installation, and cement pouring) and requested several estimates. Carlos was quick to respond and provided a bid that's in the middle among a few others. > Carlos was knowledgeable and professional and even made some good suggestion in the initial quoting process, which was why we decided to go with IGC. > Carlos and his team started the job fairly quickly and were able to finish on time. The deck and retaining wall work were particularly impressive. While we ran into a few small unexpected problems due to weather and previous house setup, Carlos and his team were flexible and resourceful. They were easy to communicate and always came up with effective solutions. > We would definitely hire them again for future home improvement projects!

Very happy with the results! Used to have a weed garden front and back and now proud to invite people to our house. Daughters are playing in the backyard constantly when it used to be wasted space. Communication with Carlos by text and phone is prompt and clear, pricing is fair and reasonable, and work is very good. Super fast too. I was a little skeptical of the timeline he gave us and he got it done. He is super on top of ordering materials on schedule so they are ready for his team to do the work. Carlos was good with helping us finalize our design ideas too. Minor problems came up as we were finishing and Carlos was quick to respond and fix them. I work with a lot of contractors and Carlos is one of the best. Looking forward to our next project with Carlos and team... keep up the great work! ## Selected projects - [Modern Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/modern-kitchen-pj-vj~7101627) - Location: Danville, California - Photos: 7 - Description: nice modern kitchen with custom cabinetry and organize storage,water fall calacatta countertops, hexagon backsplash and stainless steel appliances - [Small ADU project](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/small-adu-project-pj-vj~7159982) - Location: Oakland, California - Photos: 5 - [White Bathroom Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/white-bathroom-remodel-pj-vj~7102476) - Location: Danville, CA - Photos: 19 - [Pergolas](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/pergolas-pj-vj~7143708) - Location: San Ramon, California - Photos: 16 - Description: A contemporary design that incorporates simple straigh lines instead or more unamental look . - [White Kitchen Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/white-kitchen-remodel-pj-vj~7159945) - Location: San Francisco, CA - Photos: 6 - [Concrete Floating Steps](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/concrete-floating-steps-pj-vj~7143693) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - Description: Concrete Cantilever steps, also known as Concrete Floating Steps, are blocks of concrete in your yard that appear as if they are floating and not touching the ground.
