The owners were knowledgeable, easy to work with, and involved throughout the whole house project they did for us. Every and I really mean every employee they had at the house was professional, were excellent craftsmen, and they really focused on the details, left nothing undone. They were wonderful and patient while working with me on making tile, flooring, paint decisions. > > I can say we did not have one negative experience with the owners or employees. I would use them again and again and give their contact information to anyone what asks. > > Thank you guys!! ### All 17 reviews **★★★★★ — HU-436722005, Feb. 2026** > We hired 126 Builders to tile our entire home as well as add a few windows. Ricky and his team were very professional from start to finish. They arrived daily at 7:30 and would finish by 4. The crew was prompt, professional and friendly. During the process, if we had questions or additional needs that required a supervisor, they usually were on site or would return or calls/texts immediately. Overall the project turned out even nicer than we imagined. 126 Builders exceeded expectations at every opportunity and we will be using them again in the near future! **★★★★★ — Rosemary Danon, Dec. 2025** > Very pleased with the high level of quality in construction…very organized … excellent communication. Came in on schedule as well. **★★★★★ — Rosario Alvarez, Dec. 2025** > Working with Ricky and his team on our ADU project was an outstanding experience. The finished result is absolutely beautiful and the process was smooth and completely stress-free. We trusted Ricky from the first time we met him, and he consistently proved that trust with clear communication, reliability, and quality craftsmanship. We are extremely happy with the outcome and would absolutely recommend 126 Builders to anyone! **★★★★★ — Miguel Alvarez, Dec. 2025** > We are very happy and satisfied with 126 Builder Inc for the construction of our ADU. It has been a very positive experience entrusting our project to this company, as they have exceeded all our expectations. They are a serious, detail-oriented, and very punctual company. **★★★★★ — Steven, April 2025** > We had a fantastic experience working with 126 Builders Inc! Our goal was to build two Accessory Dwelling Units . First ADU would be a detached 2 bedroom 2bath and second ADU was a garage conversion 1 bedroom 1 bath. We also remodeled 3 bathrooms from our main house and much more. This would be the biggest construction project we’ve ever had. > > Ricky and April were transparent from the very beginning. They were clear about the process, pricing, and timelines. The quote we received was fair and detailed. We requested multiple quotes and decided to go with 126 Builders Inc. > > The project manager and crew were consistently punctual, respectful of our time, and kept the project moving smoothly. Communication was top-notch—any questions or concerns we had were addressed promptly and clearly. > > Big huge shout out to William our project manager! What really stood out was his professionalism at every stage. From the initial consultation to the final walkthrough, we felt confident and supported throughout the entire build. William deserves a raise! > > We highly recommend 126 Builders Inc to anyone looking for a reliable, honest, and skilled home builder. **★★★★★ — Dave & Kathy, June 2024** > Excellent contractor! High quality work, fair and reasonable pricing. Professional installers guided and helped us on design decisions. We love our new bathroom. Would highly recommend and would hire again for future projects. **★★★★★ — Jill Blutinger, May 2024** > Ricky was great to work with, from our first conversation till the very end. He and his team did a fantastic job on the refresh of our rental townhome. They removed all the carpet and repaired the subfloor, laid down tile, removed the fireplace and dry walled over the space, painted the entire unit, and other repairs. They were on time each day, kept a clean workspace and there was absolutely no need to micro manage. We will definitely reach out to Ricky and his team for our next project. **★★★★★ — snaslund, March 2024** > We have used 126 builders twice and have a great experience both times. The first job was a remodel of our master bedroom and bathroom in April 2023. Everyone showed up on time each day and cleaned up every day. We love our new room. The next job was some exterior porch repairs, stucco repair and painting the house and garage. Again, everyone was there bright and early and cleaned up at the end of each day. A great experience both times **★★★★★ — Naomi, July 2023** > We had a great experience working with 126 builders !! We did a full kitchen / window / flooring remodel. Everything was so smooth from start to finish. This was a hard project, they had to remove load bearing walls, install a giant beam, ceiling work, relocate electrical, plumbing, & water lines, redo our stucco, reframe windows, redo roofing, install all new cabinets, counters, new floors, & paint. It was a beast of a project and they finished ahead of schedule by almost a month!! There was little to no downtime, they were here everyday working! Their crew is excellent, on-time, and respectful. The owners April and Ricky are great communicators. Their response times to texts and emails is 30 minutes or less. They are also very accommodating with change orders. Their superintendent William is also great, very helpful explaining all things construction. Our remodel came out beautiful and far exceeded my expectations! If you’re on the fence about who to hire, pick 126 builders! They won’t disappoint !!! **★★★★★ — Fireplace Built-ins and Mud Room, June 2023** > Team was great at working with us to create the vision we had for our fireplace and built-ins and our mud room. They were efficient and thorough and I would definitely use them again for another renovation or home project! **★★★★★ — E.R. (Eric) Burgess, Sept. 2022** > Over the years, I’ve hired many builders to work on our house before we found 126 Builders. I don’t expect to ever hire another one. This amazing company has my business for good. > > From the beginning, 126 Builders’ CEO April showed her commitment to customer happiness. From bringing along a team member for questions during our initial visit, to working out a budget that made sense for us, to delivering consistently excellent work throughout the project, this is a well-run company with great communication skills. April has an ideal partner in her husband, Ricky, who is similarly devoted to high-quality work and happy customers. > > It’s clear that April and Ricky’s passion for quality inspires their workers, too. Every day, we could see progress and could tell they spent the time to do things right. Throughout the project, their team of experts were professional, precise in their timing, and respectful of our home (like keeping our cats inside). They worked hard but meticulously. We couldn’t be happier with the stunning results. Plus, we always knew what was happening through proactive communications from April. We got daily updates on who would be coming and what they’d be doing. If they were running late, we got a text. This is such a relief to know they are on top of everything. > > They transformed our ugly bathroom into a gorgeous oasis of peace and beauty, crafted specifically to my wife’s design (with April and Ricky’s help). While 126 Builders were at it, they even rolled with the punches when we asked for a few changes, always coming up with good ideas to help us realize our vision without breaking the bank for add-on work. > > I heartily endorse the work of this excellent company. We’ve already booked them to come back for another project. I’m glad to never have to find another builder again because we already found a company we know we can trust to deliver exceptional quality and great value, which is so important when you are spending a significant amount of money to upgrade your home. Trust 126 Builders to deliver. We sure do. **★★★★★ — RaeAnn Mosley, Aug. 2022** > 126 Builders was an amazing company to work with. Their crew was very professional and our bathroom looks amazing. They worked with us on budget and communicated the progress every step through the construction process. We are already planning on them working on our second bathroom. **Comment from 126 Builders Inc.:** > Thank you RaeAnn! It was a pleasure working with you and your husband. **★★★★★ — Rosie, July 2022** > They did a wonderful job on remodeling one of my bathrooms! They were able to make my thoughts come to life and were able to help me out with any questions I had. Wish I was able to have them do more work on my house before I moved. They will however, be the first people I go to for any future remodels at my new house! **Comment from 126 Builders Inc.:** > Thank you for the kind words! Just give us a call whenever you're ready for your future projects! **★★★★★ — Greg Anderson, June 2022** > 126 Builders remodeled my bathroom and I absolutely love it! They were able to make it custom and include everything I wanted. They also provided amazing service! Ricky and April are a power couple that make sure all your project needs are met. I will definitely be using them again for future projects **Comment from 126 Builders Inc.:** > Thank you so much! It was such a pleasure working with you! **★★★★★ — Shirley Johnson, Dec. 2021** > 26 Builders is without a doubt the best contractors in Los Angeles! Im so happy I found them. Their remodel of our West Hollywood home was top of the line and they were a pleasure to work with every step of the way!! **★★★★★ — User, Dec. 2021** > I couldn't be happier with my kitchen remodel! The team was incredible at transforming the space into something that is truly beautiful and functional. Accurate, Amazing Quality, On time, Great Communication, Wonderful Customer Service, Stress free! We are now working with them on our bathroom remodels.
