He was very easy to talk too and very accommodating. The crew did a great job and our house looks great. I also appreciate that although the project is over, they stand by their quality and if we have any issues I just contact Saul and someone comes over to address the issue **Comment from Atlas Construction:** > Thank you so much for sharing your experience, Haley. It’s wonderful to hear that Saul and the crew made your renovation process smooth and enjoyable, and that you’re happy with how your home turned out. Your appreciation for the ongoing support means a lot to Atlas Construction Inc, and we’re grateful for the opportunity to be part of your project. **★★★★★ — HU-880027874, May 2026** > For our home renovation, we very much enjoyed working with Atlas team and Saul, our PM. Saul's crew did a great job and it was very easy to work with them throughout the entire process. Their service is high quality and they were very respectful. We could trust them to do the work right. We would highly recommend them to anyone. **★★★★★ — Sara Garretson, Oct. 2024** > We had the immense pleasure of working with Atlas Construction to build our home, and the experience was extraordinary. From the initial consultation to the final walk-through, every member of their team demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and a genuine commitment to our satisfaction. > > Special thanks to Nathan, who expertly guided us through financing and design while keeping us within budget. Bethany provided invaluable assistance with selecting countertops, paint colors, and finishing touches, ensuring our home was both beautiful and cohesive. Our project manager, Shay, went above and beyond, adding unexpected extras to make our home not only stunning but also functional and secure. > > Atlas Construction delivered an exceptional home, and we are incredibly grateful for their dedication and care. We wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking to build their dream home. **★★★★★ — Sandi Yamada, Sept. 2024** > Atlas Construction took care of us through every step of the process. Josh helped us with the initial phase, and was a great collaborator as well as Jeremy, our planner. They were very knowledgable, met with us weekly listening to our ideas, all while keeping it within our budget. Our selections designer Bethany was also amazing and brought my dream kitchen and bathroom to life and was a joy to work with! Our project manager Shay was nothing short of exceptional. She addressed our concerns day and night, resolved issues in a timely manner, and was in constant communication with us. She is a perfectionist which is exactly the person you want building your house. Our family loved working with Shay and I cannot express how appreciative we are to her and her team. Atlas staff takes their customer service to another level and takes pride in their work which is reflected in our beautiful house. Thank you, Atlas! **★★★★★ — Daniel Igawa, Aug. 2024** > Worked with Shay and Mika from Atlas on an addition. Shay provided excellent customer service; communicated well, attention to detail, follow through, and insight on our project all contributed to an overall positive experience. It’s always the individuals that make the experience, Atlas is lucky to have these two! **★ — Kathy T, April 2022** > Demolished old structures built a new home. Everything “seemed” good but that all changed once I signed the contract. Follow the advice of the resources available. Hire someone who is looking out fort your best interest. I now understand the value of hiring an architect or hiring an engineer I chose. Someone to oversee the construction would have been money well spent especially if you don’t have a reputable and knowledgeable lender involved. **★ — Al M, Feb. 2021** > VERY long story but years go by w/o keeping promises and poor quality workers that do show up on weekends...major many errors, never followed through on promises and made great publicity at my expense (whole article on helping me 'with volunteers" to help the..." that NEVER HAPPENED. Promises to try and help me after another contractor made so many errors, took my money and left the job requiring legal assist to try and get it back. He promised to help, got my hopes up...promised to send workers I'd pay by the hour to HELP ME RECOVER from the rip off. I am 100% combat disabled. He had that huge article and it was ALL LIES as nothing ever happened...and I waited for years. A worker on a Saturday doing poor work is NOT 'an army of volunteers'...And then charged $1700.00 for materials not even for this job that sat for years now, un-used, wasted money...16' wood that I Paid $200.00 to have moved behind the house (huge hassle requiring using neighbors yards as my backyard is steeply terraced) and off the front lawn when they never came back to pick it up (as promised and then was charged for it)...and when I emailed him a list several YEARS later 2020 to 'clear my mind' of this humbug so I can MOVE ON...I never heard back. Something has happened to this company--bit off more than they can chew? His Dad had a GREAT company; the son took it over and what happened? I have had to rehire others to repair and replace EVERYTHING they did--from cracking a window, hanging a barn door incorrectly (crooked), electric not done correctly (they still do not light when you flick the switch and I have not had the $$ to hire someone else to repair it) ; plumbing issues (hot water on demand heater with no wash out valve installed, leaky toilets...it has not been fun. Until they clean up and start looking at what is wrong--as there are many one star reviews now, this will never be resolved. They ARE a family business and seemed to me to be genuine nice people but WHAT happened here? To me, they owe me the $1700 back and repair the errors I still have not repaired. I have said my peace and will end this now but I in all honesty cannot recommend this company anymore. IT TOOK ME YEARS TO EVEN WRITE THIS I AM SO DISAPPOINTED AND SAD. **★ — Lloyd Arakaki, Oct. 2020** > Relatively small (230 SF), 2-1/2 bathroom renovation expected duration 3-4 months stretched to 449 days. They were not the “low bidder” costing $630/SF. Poor communications and unclear scope of work. Schedules were not timely or relevant to actual progress of work (after awhile no updates were made). As schedule slipped, no mitigative action or explanations. Lack of on-site supervision exacerbated coordination, quality control issues, and material delivery. Poor progress of work, inefficiently scheduled. Productivity obviously an issue. COVID was a brief issue but only accounted for 2 week delay. Quality of work was acceptable after corrective action but suffered because of lack of oversight and coordination. There were 16 specific material supply problems, mostly incorrect type, not counting supply delays. Final “punch list” of corrective or incomplete work took over 3 months. They are not a high-touch or high-end type contractor, pretty pedestrian design assistance if you’re looking for product selections or quality. **★★★★★ — Andy Pohl, June 2016** > Outstanding company…customer focused! Although my project was relatively small (new walkways and patio; repaired spalling foundation), Atlas Construction centered their energy on my project. > Saul, a superb planner with great interpersonal skills, was my project manager. He met with me multiple times before I signed on the dotted line providing keen insight about concrete, suggested ways to improve my project (without added expense), and ensured my concerns were fully addressed. Foremost was Saul’s pro-active demeanor. He introduced me to the Atlas team on the first day and was frequently at my house throughout the project (including day of concrete pour), and remained in contact daily via cell phone. In other words, Team Atlas just didn’t take my money and run, they were on-site or on the phone with me to ensure my satisfaction and that the project was completed as desired. Even after the project’s completion, Saul came to my rescue orchestrating Team Atlas in the resolution of issues/problems caused by other contractors. One word summarizes Saul attributes…OUTSTANDING! > Ramon was the concrete foreman during my project. WOW! Meticulous, organized and tireless, Ramon is without doubt the hardest worker I know and I have extremely high standards. Ramon treated my project as his own identifying potential problems and offering solid solutions that included a drainage system. He made sure the walkways and patio were slightly sloped to allow water drainage away from my house (his typical exacting nature). On the day my concrete was poured, Ramon mandated that his team measure up to his high standards making sure all finish work was accomplished to his satisfaction. My concrete project was completed on-time and on-budget. I dare any company to produce a concrete foreman that exceeds Ramon’s talents! > Joel was Atlas’ electrician. Although tasked to install a few electrical outlets, he was Saul’s go-to guy to fix an electrical issue after another company gave up. When the other company said my underground electrical conduit was blocked and they could not pull the electrical wires through Joel said “CAN DO” and completed the work to code and within two hours. This was essential as I paid for the underground conduit in order to hide my air conditioners wiring and improve the aesthetics' of my house. Without question, Joel is the epitome of a master electrician. > Francis, Atlas’ carpenter, also came to the rescue to repair the other company’s mistakes; specifically, a piece of house trim removed to facilitate installation of my air conditioning system. When the other company essentially said they would have to research and order the materials Francis stepped in and fabricated and installed the piece of trim. What would have taken weeks was completed in three hours...and you cannot even tell there was a repair to the area! As a master carpenter, Francis is a true craftsman. > Anyone looking to accomplish home improvements need only to seek out the amazing folks at Atlas Construction. The next time I renovate Atlas Construction will be my contractor of choice for ALL work; not just concrete. I was thoroughly impressed; you will be too…satisfaction guaranteed!!! **★★★★★ — mistykaolelopono, Nov. 2015** > Atlas construction is the company to call to build your dream home or do an addition. They are a great company you work with and very professional. We will definitely use them again. Thank you atlas. **★★★★★ — Brian Tow, Sept. 2015** > Atlas is currently remodeling our home. Kitchen, 2 baths, garage conversion, windows, wet bar and more. I adore them, we have come to enjoy having Scotty, Bruce and Danny here. > > Aside from the work they are doing which is superior, and how organized and professional they always are, it's the little side things that make them shine. > > Our AC leaks water on the lanai. Danny overheard me talking about how it was not safe. He put a hose and made it drain into the garden. Never even told me, I just noticed it. > > They care about safety and comfort of our pets, always ensuring they are secure and happy. > > They help my older parents carry in groceries and other things they see them struggle with. > > And finally was an incident where my dog was surprised by Danny being in the yArd. He didn't recognize him right away and nipped at him, biting him in the stomach. He never said anything, i found out from one of the workers sons. I asked Danny he said it was nothing no worries but I mad him show me. It was a noticeable night, it broke skin. My dog is huge so it was a big bite. We felt horrible and offered to get him treated, etc bit he refused, even defending my dog for guarding the house. **★★★★★ — sumi41, Aug. 2015** > Atlas Construction assisted my family in designing, financing and constructing our home renovation three years ago. From the very start, we felt very comfortable and trusted the President, sales representative and all company employees who were involved in our project. Their desire to sincerely help families with home renovations was definitely obvious during the entire process. Our questions were always answered immediately and handled with much professionalism. We are extremely pleased with the outcome of the construction process as well as with the renovated home! ## Selected projects - [Palisbo](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/palisbo-pj-vj~1769811) - Location: Honolulu, HI - Photos: 12 - [Kuroda](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kuroda-pj-vj~1769921) - Location: Honolulu, HI - Photos: 11 - [Oshiro](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/oshiro-pj-vj~1769901) - Location: Honolulu, HI - Photos: 12 - [Mililani Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/mililani-renovation-pj-vj~667422) - Location: Honolulu, HI - Photos: 7 - [Makakilo Master Bedroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/makakilo-master-bedroom-pj-vj~667395) - Location: Honolulu, HI - Photos: 9 - [Iwata](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/iwata-pj-vj~1769928) - Location: Honolulu, HI - Photos: 3 - [Nestel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/nestel-pj-vj~1769911) - Location: Honolulu, HI - Photos: 8 - [Sukita Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sukita-residence-pj-vj~1769620) - Location: Honolulu, HI - Photos: 5 - [Latest Projects](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/latest-projects-pj-vj~404215) - Location: Honolulu, HI - Photos: 4 - [Wong Sato](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/wong-sato-pj-vj~2435460) - Location: Honolulu, HI - Photos: 17 - [Craft](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/craft-pj-vj~2494637) - Location: Kaneohe, HI - Photos: 7 [See all 11 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/home-builders/atlas-construction-pfvwus-pf~403426439) ## Ideabooks - [Wish List](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/159794932/list/wish-list) — 1 idea - [Wish List](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/159794931/list/wish-list) — 1 idea [See all 2 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/rodney-kim) --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
