Greg, the project manager was so accommodating with my requests and helped me choose quality fixtures when I needed to make a decision. All the subs were respectful and focused on getting the job done in the confines of a condo. That had to be challenging. The project was completed in the time estimated even though the holidays were in the middle of things. > > I'm extremely pleased with the final results. It's relieved the stress of living with fiberglass and mold and I'm proud to have visitors. Several of them have already been impressed with the quality of the work. I would definitely recommend Edwards Contracting to my friends. **★★★★★ — Jeff M, Sept. 2019** > The Highest Recommendation to Mike, Greg and John. They nailed the vision I had for my bathroom remodel and did it in a professional way in every step of the project. Would definitely recommend Mike to family/friends. **★★★★★ — bill degrenier, March 2019** > Mike and John are very professional and knowledgeable. They are also on time and within any initial budget proposal.I have used them twice. Once to replace several fogged windows and doors. Also, to do a complete kitchen remodel. I would use them again. I highly recommend them. **★★★★★ — mlglaw1, Dec. 2018** > Edwards Contracting has worked with us for the past two years on both projects inside and outside our home in Rancho Santa Fe. Mike and John are skilled at a wide variety of landscaping, carpentry, electrical and related projects. They are reliable and professional. They have the personal and technical skills to get the projects done well and at fair prices. **★★★★★ — Jim ODonnell, Nov. 2018** > This company does it all and well. They built us a garage and rental unit from ground up with a ton of challenges. If you want it done right the first time then give them a call! Just remember, you get what you pay for. **★★★★★ — Frances Carrillo, Nov. 2018** > Michael was a pleasure to work with, he rebuilt a full kitchen, a wet bath and master bath. In addition, raised a ceiling, reworked beams that came out beautifully and just overall added great suggestions to the design process. He was attentive from the very beginning in listening to my ideas and concerns and providing a detailed budget to the follow through on the project. His crew Jon and Mikey were fantastic dealing with two people and a dog living in the reno space. They worked with me on many of the design aspects and purchasing materials that were quality and cost efficient. I am thrilled with the work that is done and look forward to work with them in the future. ## Selected projects - [Accessory Dwelling Unit](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/accessory-dwelling-unit-pj-vj~5528839) - Location: Encinitas, CA - Photos: 2 - [Custom Luxury New Home build - Hollywood](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/custom-luxury-new-home-build-hollywood-pj-vj~5022158) - Location: Los Angeles, CA - Photos: 7 - Description: Open concept, retractable doors, pocket sliders, vanishing edge pool, entry water feature. - [La Costa Condo remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/la-costa-condo-remodel-pj-vj~5493878) - Location: Carlsbad, CA - Photos: 7 - [Backyard Oasis](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/backyard-oasis-pj-vj~5423320) - Location: Los Angeles, CA - Photos: 4 [See all 4 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/home-builders/ecm-builders-pfvwus-pf~791408048) --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
