Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 31, 2015
“I had the pleasure of collaborating with designer Kara Silkwood on a major residential remodel and addition located in Los Gatos, California. She was a tremendous asset to our design team as our small addition grew to a whole-house remodel and addition--approximately 3,000 sq. ft. single story home. Together, we transformed a simple ranch style home into a custom detailed, beautifully decorated craftsman style home inside and out. I would highly recommend Interior Designer, Kara for your project.”

“Great service and very professional remodeling company. We contact Mayer’s Construction and remodeling for a bathroom remodeling estimate. They were very nice on the phone and very respectful so we booked an early meeting including me and my husband. After receiving multiple offers from Others, they seems to be very knowledgable and gave us more logical ideas and more information about our future Bathroom Remodeling we had in mind. We hired them after 2 days of thoughts, and they came ready To work and showed us the exact schedule on this project. After less then a month we had a brand new remodeled bathroom. We are very exited to have this done with this professional people. We are happy we choose them for this kind of project and would like to recommend to other as well. Thank you very much. ———- Updating this has we have been hired again this great company, this time we choose to redo our front and back landscaping.

“I initially called Boutique Home Remodeling for a bathroom remodel. I had a reference from a friend so I said I would try them. They came in on budget, very responsive, great quality and it was easy to work with them. After completing the bathroom I decided to give them the rest of the job and it was great, big shout out for Tai! Tai helped us out throughout the whole process and even when I went for a weekend to Tahoe I got updates and knew exactly what was going on. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!”
Level Up Home Remodeling Inc
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Sunnyvale
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 19, 2017
“Our recent home project included the complete remodeling of the kitchen, 3 bathrooms and wet bar. My husband and I decided on Level up home remodeling following our due diligence process (having interviewed multiple contractor candidates) given the prior reviews, competitive proposal, and positive impressions following our discussions with Issac. Issac estimated 3 months to complete the project beginning in August 2016, and although there were the unknown but expected bumps in the road along the way during the project, was able to complete the job on a timely basis. Both quality of workmanship and timely completion of the job was important to us, and Issac and his team delivered on both counts. Those working on our project were hard working competent individuals, punctual, courteous and easy to engage in conversation. Issac was at our site on a daily basis both overseeing the project and hands on with regards to any task. He and his team provided professional, thoughtful and viable options and resolutions to each situation/issue as they arose. We have used other contractors in the past, but Level up home remodeling outperformed all the predecessors. We are pleased with the results and would not hesitate in bringing back Issac team for other construction projects going forward.”

“This team was contracted to do the architectural work on an addition to my home. I sketched out the overall design. Nong listened and offered his suggestions. At the conclusion, his overall design and improvements when far beyond what I had envisioned. He walk through all the paperwork and time needed to get all the permits which allowed me time to take care of the family and talk about the new look. The project is still under construction, but I know my family and I will be happy with what we both (myself and Nong) envisioned.”

“After doing extensive research and talking to multiple contractors I settles on Mr & Mrs. Construction for my bathroom renovation project. From initial consultion to design to picking of tiles and materials they were always there to guide us when we needed it. Lital was the project manager for us and she was a pleasure to deal with. Quality of work performed was great and the end result came out amazing. I would definitely recommend Mr & Mrs. Construction to anyone looking to get their bathroom redone in an affordable budget.”

Kohler Architects, Inc.

Average rating: 4 out of 5 starsJanuary 10, 2013
“Overall our experience with Kohler Associates was very pleasant. We did a major remodel in our house including a familyroom addition, bathroom, and kitchen update. Roger is very knowledgeable of the Palo Alto City's requirements and this helped speed up the permit process. Roger and his staff are extremely professional. Not only they delivered on time, but they were also open for questions. I wished only that they would be more involved with the details during construction, especially with the interior design.”

“Rich helped design and build two bathrooms and a walk in closet for our home. He came up with creative options to utilize existing space and keep the remodel elegant but affordable. He has a great eye for recommending the latest styles and colors, which without his help would have been overwhelming. We have also had the pleasure of seeing some of his custom built homes which are absolutely stunning!”
