When I had a question about who worked on my type of cabinets, Kim came out the next morning, on a very rainy day, to help with the problem as well as answering questions about the house that I had wanted to know. **★★★★★ — HU-76554639, Dec. 2018** > Nobel builders are not just conscientious GREEN contractors, they genuinely care about thier clients and their product outcome. They guide the vision of the homeowner in a very holistic manner. The Nobel touch and talent, style and creativity ultimately adds to the value and even "personality" of the home. Their remodel of 32 Almenar in Greenbrae gave that property prominence and it was snatched up in less than a week against 7 other marketed properties in the same neighborhood at the time. **★ — stephen hettleman, Aug. 2018** > My experience was much like the most recent one from March 2018. My experience was a disaster. Kim never showed up for any of the three different times he said the job would start. He finally began the project almost two months later. When he submitted a change order at 3x the original estimate for a small job (which eventually cost me much less with another builder), I fired him and paid him for more for the one day of work than I should have. He had completed only a 1/3 of the originally quoted work. His messages to me were nasty and insulting, totally unprofessional. After a year of not hearing from him, he tried to get me to pay by using a collection agency. Beware! I'd use any other builder out there but Kim. **★★★★★ — Karl Hittelman, Sept. 2017** > Noble Builders rebuilt the many steps of a long, deteriorated, winding garden path through my hillside yard. In a word, the work was outstanding. Each step of the process, demolition of the old steps; grading and prep for the new; selection and preparation of materials; installation of new steps (wood and stone); final touches and cleanup -- all were done with expertise and care at a level of quality that I expect can last decades. Kim's has vast experience and skill at what he does, and is totally hands on. I was impressed by his problem solving ability, knowledge of local sources for materials, attention to detail, and esthetic eye. He worked long winter and spring hours, taking advantage of every drop of daylight he could. The disturbance of existing plantings in my yard was minimal. > > I recommend Noble Builders without reservation. For me, it was a bonus to have a contractor who is not only a longtime resident of Corte Madera, but also one who is active in community affairs. **★★★★★ — Gregg Jabs, March 2017** > I'm a contractor myself and I've worked on quite a few projects with Kim and Quail. They've been in the business for many many years and they have a wealth of knowledge about all phases of construction. I've learned a lot from Kim and Quail along the way and I would work along with them any day. Aside from quality in design, craftsmanship, and customer service you'll be gaining a pair of wonderful friends with the opportunity to build a lasting relationship for all your construction needs in the future. **★★★★★ — John Hefler, Aug. 2016** > Noble Builders has done general home maintenance for us for the last 10 years, plus significant projects such as house painting (2012) , bathroom remodel (2009), and roof reconstruction (early 2016). We are very happy with the quality of their design and build work. They stand behind their work and are flexible and offer practical suggestions when plans need to change due to circumstances beyond their control. **★★★★★ — Ursula Hanks, June 2016** > Noble Builders exemplify quality end results of the desired outcome from their clients. Their service comes with professionalism, enthusiasm, and sincere commitment to their customers' needs and wants. Their follow through on every detail on the project and their positive customer care commitment is outstanding. **Comment from Noble Builders:** > Thank you Ursula. Kim and I enjoyed working closely with you, Harry and your family.
