Remcon Design Build

Wonderful workmanship by Remcon Design and Build on our bathroom repair and remodel. Great attention to detail. Simo and Lia were very organized and had excellent communication. They provided advice on tiles, fixtures and accessories. I appreciate their straightforward and honest approach. High marks for Remcon and our bathroom looks amazing!

We just finished a big remodel, and Remcon made it enjoyable! Like many others, I started teleworking when Covid hit. There's nothing like staring at your walls 10 hours a day to make you get ideas, lol! I decided it was time to remodel my kitchen, maybe move one wall to open up the space (yeah, I watch too much HGTV), then why not do flooring, and my small bathroom as long as we're at it? My house was built in the 60's. We bought it freshly flipped in 2014. We are a few blocks from the beach, but the house was dark colors-reddish flooring, dark cabinets, granite countertops. I wanted beachy, sandy colors and design. I started looking for help managing this project. I tried interior decorators (too busy, and no contractors to do the work), then design companies. I had three bids, but after speaking with Simo Pinto, project manager from Remcon Design Build, a decision was made. Simo explained things about flooring, limitations to the bathroom design, and what my costs would be. The bid was significantly lower than the others, probably because he didn't promise me things that would cost excessive amounts. I would much rather be told no rather than yes if it will cost significantly more. I'm a bit of a cheapskate We committed, and the work began. Simo outlined what would happen, contractor by contractor, on a calendar. I knew my payment schedule. We went to cabinet stores and countertop manufacturers to find what we liked, and what was cost effective. I shopped nonstop for finishes, flooring, and paint. I sent pics to Simo as I found things so he could approve or redirect me. Each contractor who came to my house was professional, neat and talented. When I complimented Simo on his employees, he just said to wait, there were even more great people to come - and he was right. I'd say choosing floors was the hardest part, but paint came in a close second. Every decision seems sooo important, when you consider the cost, lifespan, and how it will look with all the other new things. Simo was supportive throughout, providing guidance, calmness, a sense of humor, and reassurance. One day he even brought his dog over to play with mine! The project took the designated time, and while Thanksgiving had to be cooked in the grill (hey, it's Southern California!) Christmas and New Years was spent in my like new, beautiful home. I cannot say enough great things about Remcon and Simo. I wish I could do even more design but for now I'm really really happy. Please message me with any questions, I'm a big fan!

We had Remcon remodel our 20 year old kitchen, laundry and bar area. We worked with Lia and Simo, and both were great. Both had a lot of good ideas during the design stage and helped us hone in on a final solution quickly. Simo helped us with the material selection. Lia checked all our appliance selections to make sure everything was going to fit okay. Lia had us work with a couple of different cabinet vendors to make sure we were getting value for our money. All of the staff and subs were professional and did quality work. As with any remodel there were a few things that went awry, but these were quickly remedied. My wife and I are very happy with the final work. We are more than happy to recommend Remcon for your next remodel.

We recently had our small condo kitchen remodeled with a beautiful quartz countertop, new sink, disposal and RO (Reversed Osmosis) along with updated plumbing. Sibella was awesome and helpful with ideas. We opted for a large island piece. This makes our small kitchen look bigger and brighter! Lia was great and I knew I didn’t have to worry about their work. All were friendly, professional and caring! The have their own crew and don’t subcontract out! They do great work and finished in four days! They didn’t even mind that our kitty when left out from upstairs after they left, tore up the paper taped on the floor to walk on. She thought it was fun to mess it up. I highly recommend Remcon‼️ Mikki cat approves to and gives two paws up!

Remcon is a truly great company! Every person we dealt with from start to finish was polite, professional, hardworking, efficient, excelled at their job, and was genuinely a good person. They cared about us as both clients and people. From the minute Sibella and Lia walked into our home for the first time and started spouting off ideas, we knew this was going to be a good fit. Not only did they come in on-budget, but they finished the project a full week ahead of schedule. We could not be happier with the company and the outcome. As you can see from the pictures, Remcon does A+ work. I recommend this company to anyone who needs work done on their home.

We're in the middle of remodeling our kitchen, master bath, guest bath, and two fireplaces and we couldn't be happier with Remcon and with our contractor Simo Pinto. We're just days away from Christmas and Simo has a full crew working on all areas of the house. He is extremely knowledgeable and is a master at coordinating every detail that goes into the job. Simo and Remcon have been very accommodating to us and our needs. Simo is always either on hand at the house, or quickly responds to a voicemail or text. We would highly recommend them!

We used Remcon to design and build our California room and are absolutely THRILLED with the results. Ronen offered creative suggestions when we were uncertain with what we wanted. Roy constantly checked in to ensure accuracy and quality during all phases of the construction. Luis did superb craftsmanship with multiple phases of the build. We changed a few things along the way and Remcon was able to adjust their plans and give suggestions to make it look just right. We would absolutely use them again for the next remodel!

We hired Remcon to complete a fairly involved remodel of our not-so-uptaded 1960s house. They did a 200SF addition connecting our house to our garage, put in a new kitchen, new powder room, remodeled two bathrooms, removed two load bearing walls, moved other walls around, installed Panoramic doors, new flooring, paint, etc. Ronen and Roy were great to work with. Because of the complexity of the project, there were definitely some bumps along the way but they were able to give us good options and solutions to the problems that arose. The best part was that the project length was way under estimate so we were able to move back into our home much sooner. Our contract said 5-6 month sand they finished in less than four! We would definitely recommend Remcon.

Remcon was absolutely great to work with. We had a very awkward layout in our upstairs bathroom and had several contractors come out to give us quotes and ideas to improve the "flow" of the bathroom. Sibella, had the best ideas and most competitive quote. We felt so comfortable with her that we signed the contract the same day we received the quote. Our project went extremely smooth and took no longer than they said it would. We are SO pleased with how it looks and will be recommending Remcon to any friends that plan to remodel their homes. Thanks Remcon!

Remcon worked with us throughout the whole process from design through completion and addressed our needs and exceeded our expectations as they arose. We stayed on budget and they even managed to finish a couple weeks ahead of schedule. We are very happy with the final project and how the new addition changed the flow of the house. Highly recommended!

We hired Remcon to remodel our 15 year old kitchen. To say they went above and beyond is an understatement. They take pride In their work and craftsmanship. They are on time, on budget and most importantly a pleasure to do business with. Our kitchen far exceeded our expectations and we asked for a recommendation on a couple very small projects we wanted done as well. They ended up refacing two fireplaces, rebuilding our outside fireplace and building us a California Room. They are by far the best in the business and stand behind their work 100%. We will be using Remcon again and have no problem HIGHLY recommending them to friends and family!

I emailed Remcon expecting a couple weeks, at least, for a consultation for a kitchen remodel. I met with Sibella literally the next day and demo started the following week. She was very knowledgeable on locations for well priced and quality material (cabinets and countertops) and also had a very good, space maximizing vision for my cabinet layout. Everyone on the team was professional and kept open lines of communication. They worked quickly and efficiently, completing the job in two weeks and I am very happy with the outcome. I will definitely use them when the time comes for my bathroom remodel.

Recently I renovated my master and kid's bathroom. I met with 4 different contractors before hiring Remcon. Remcon was not the most expensive, but not the cheapest either. While we had a good feeling from our initial meeting with Ronen, what pushed us over the edge was the fact that we had mutual connections. For that reason, we immediately had trust in Ronen which was important to us. Moving on to the project...I can be very challenging to work with because I'm slightly (or maybe more than slightly) OCD when it comes to details. Trust me when I say that I notice everything...and I expect that every little detail be perfect, especially when paying so much for renovation. I couldn't have asked for a better GC and Project Manager. Ronen and Lia are both 'laid back' which is exactly what someone like me needs. They are not argumentative or defensive and ALWAYS have the customer's best interest in mind. It felt like I had a punch list for them at the end of every day and every single time, everything was done or redone 100%, whether or not it was an oversight on the laborers part or I changed my mind part way through. Honestly, Lia and Ronen were the best to work with and made this job and pain free as possible. Not to mention their communication was better than I could have ever asked for....very responsive to my every text and email. That itself is worth it's weight in gold!!

We few years back we had Remcon convert a loft to bedroom. It was a smaller project and Ronan gave a us a good quote on the cost. Their guys completed the project quickly and they did great work. So last year after moving into a new house, Remcon was first on our mind for a larger bedroom addition to convert an open two story living room into a second story bedroom with loft. My wife and I had a vision and a design for the room layout and loft which also included a custom stair railing. The project was not without some hurdles along the way but Remcon completed the project in the time and for the price they quoted. Their guys did some really amazing work with the custom stair rail. The project overall turned out exactly as we had envisioned.

I contracted Remcon to remodel the 2 1/2 bathrooms in my townhouse, as well as to do some other updates to the upstairs (new linen cabinets, replace carpet, upgrade bedrooms, etc.). It was a pretty large project, and I was able to move out of my house while the work was being completed, which saved some time and money. I was very happy with not only the result of the renovation, but with the process of working with Remcon. Simo was my project manager, and he was fantastic. With all the horror stories you hear about contractors, I feel like I got extremely lucky. From the moment he came out to see the place and give me a quote (by the way, Simo made time on a holiday because that worked with our schedule!), he was a true pleasure to work with. He always worked to get me the best quality at the very lowest price possible. At every stage, he did everything humanly possible to make me happy and help make sure I get the results I want. The contract was very specific and laid out everything that would be done. They do quote the labor separately-- and then whatever materials and finishes you choose are purchased directly from the vendor. I think this makes a BIG difference in helping people save money. Unlike other designers and contractors, they don't take a "cut" or a "markup" on everything you purchase. They get a significant contractor's discount and pass on ALL of that savings. In addition, Simo took me shopping! We went all around town looking for tile, plumbing fixtures, and everything else we needed and he was helpful in choosing things that would look good as well as making sure all the specs would work. At every point, it was clear that Simo was doing whatever he could to help me save money and get what I wanted. But the best part was Simo's responsiveness and communication. We were in constant contact by phone, email, and text, and he came over almost daily to make sure the project was going smoothly and things were being done correctly. He always tried to work around my schedule for meetings and necessary appointments. Tony was the lead working on the project—he was a super nice guy who paid attention to detail and did a great job keeping things moving. All the guys on the crew were great, and that’s important when you have people hanging out in your home. Remodeling is stressful, obviously. There were various issues and problems that came up, but Simo was always reassuring and would do whatever it took to resolve everything as necessary. I was able to feel fully confident that everything was being done right and that no one was trying to take advantage of me, and that made a HUGE difference. Plus, Simo is just a super nice guy. His conscientiousness and sense of humor make him great fun to be with. I definitely missed seeing him once the project was over!

Working with Simo from REMCON Design was a very good experience for my husband and I. With no design or homebuilding experience, we were anxious to take care of some big house-wide cosmetic items quickly after purchasing our first home in October of 2018. Simo met with us 4 separate times to explain the process, patiently answer our questions, and put our minds at ease before we even signed the REMCON contract to begin. From then on, he was excellent at communicating with us every step of the way and was a pleasure to work with. He quickly answered any questions we had and was very diligent to correct any flaws or special requests we had along the way. Overall we were very pleased with the process and VERY thrilled with the end product! I highly recommend working with Simo at REMCON design, as my husband and I plan to do ourselves in the future.

We hired Remcon Design Build for 3 bathroom remodels in our traditional 115 year old house. They were professional, detail oriented and great communicators. Going with a design build company minimized our headache dealing with contractors/subcontractors, and the subs were well vetted and did solid work. They ended up on the job for close to a year because of the complexity of the plumbing and construction of our old home, and quite a few additional projects we tacked on. But Sibella (sales) was always friendly and responsive, and Lia (project manager) was patient, creative and a problem solver on our job. Although its probably more expensive to hire a design build company than trying to manage yourself, for us it was well worth it.

We interviewed several different companies for our kitchen remodel but ultimately decided to go with Remcon for a couple of reasons...and we couldn’t be happier. Ronen came to our house to give us the initial bid. He was very kind, knowledgeable and understanding of our wish list. Ronen remained our main point of contact throughout the project. We also worked closely with Lia who was absolutely fantastic as well. Ultimately, we chose Remcon because felt that Remcon would be able to help us create our dream kitchen and also say within our budget. While we did go over budget, Remcon certainly was able to create us one beautiful kitchen! The whole Remcon team worked so hard to give us a (mostly) working kitchen for the Thanksgiving holiday. Remcon was able to remove a couple of walls (one of which was load-bearing) without having to have any posts—they were able to hide the beam in the ceiling. This was a game changer for us! We love the open floor plan that they were able to create. They even were able to build us a custom hood, which we really love. Thank you so much Remcon!

My wife and I just recently completed a small room addition project with Remcon, and we couldn't be happier with the process and the final outcome! Ronen, Lia, and the rest of the Remcon team were great throughout the project, accommodating multiple change order requests. All of the crews that worked on our project were extremely professional, seemed very experienced, and hard working. Our project finished within the expected timelines, and without cost overruns, despite some of the setbacks along the way. Remcon staff were able to help with the design ideas, perfectly match some of the custom elements that we wanted to add through their network of vendors (such as custom glass barn door), and recommend quality vendors at very competitive prices (flooring). They generally treated this project as if it was their own property, and were very flexible and accommodating with our schedules and requests. You seldom hear of great experiences with a contractor, but Remcon is definitely an exception! We look forward to doing our next project with them, and both of us would highly recommend them to anyone that's looking to do a home improvement project, large or small!

We were very impressed with Remcon from the initial meeting until the project was done. They responded very quickly to any request, gave us a very detailed and reasonable bid for each of the 3 projects we want to do. They just finished putting a french door in a load bearing wall leading to the outside. I asked them to go above and beyond to make sure everything was structurally sound. They gave us a very reasonable bid for a job that turned out to be more complex than either of us imagined. I LOVE my french door and finally found a company that always showed up, always followed up (Ronen checked with me twice after the job was done to make sure I was happy) and did great work.

We hired Remcon to complete a room division in our rental property in San Diego. They were respectful, promptly responded to questions and suggestions. They finished on time and were a pleasure to deal with.

I love my new kitchen! Remcon Design Build did a beautiful job and stayed on budget. All of the workers were very professional and always showed up on time. Sibella was my designer and she kept me informed of the timeline of selecting materials and installation.The only problems were due my idecisions and change of mind. Overall, I would recommend Remcon and would use them for other projects. Sharon Burwell

The Remcon team from start to finish was great to work with--from the very beginning they listened to what we wanted to get out of our remodel, helping us execute our exact vision to create our gorgeous new kitchen. They worked with the materials we chose, provided insight on what was going to work for our needs and in our house, kept us informed on the status of the project and the schedule of events happening day-to-day, and were on top of every detail throughout the entire renovation process. The result is exactly as we had hoped it would turn out when we started this process. We would definitely use Remcon again for any future remodeling projects!

My husband and I did a lot of research on home remodeling companies. We had 6 quotes and we chose Remcon because the owner, Roy, was the only contractor that had a very creative solution to our idea that ended up saving us thousands of dollars and was by far, the best idea. His idea made our home addition look like it was always there and part of the existing structure of the house. All of the other remodelers would have had an extension that was noticeable with a beam in the ceiling. We could not be happier with the outcome! The quality is by far the best we have ever seen and my husband and I have been thru multiple home builders in our past. Ronen did an excellent job of project managing and providing us with details around who would be at our house and what steps were being completed throughout the project Most of the time, they were very responsive and convenient with our schedule. They even treated us to extra’s on multiple occasions, really going above and beyond to impress and ensure we were nothing but happy with the outcome of the project. I highly recommend them!

We decided to add 500sf to the side of the house, convert the existing master bedroom and bath to a rental unit and enlarge the kitchen. After weeks of self-designing and trying to work with multiple designers and collecting contractors quotes we decided to put our trust with Remcon Design Build. Prices were better than fare, they recommended an excellent architect that offered very efficient and practical solutions and helped approve the plans as quickly as possible. They used very professional workers and sub-contractors. Everything was as quoted and agreed and if a new issue was discovered like mold or engineering issue either they took it upon themselves or we got it agreed and resolved in a quick and fare way. They put attention on the smallest detail, pointed out the issues of requests and ideas that we asked about and helped us with every stage. I ended following their initial suggestions after insisting and trying mine sometime like living room paint, kitchen installation and so on. Roy has lots of experience and a good eye for detail. We’re extremely satisfied to have worked with Remcon Design especially due the communication, price, timing, experience and professionalism, quality and material used and help with the finishes. I would definitely recommend to anyone to work with RemconDesign Build for each of the reasons I detailed above. Perhaps what impressed us the most was that Roy cares about the project like it was for its own.

The Remcon team did a fantastic job on our remodel. They converted our 3 bedroom, 2 3/4 bath house into a 4 bedroom 3 bath with master en suite dream. The bathroom off of the Master was a small 3/4 bath with a shower and we really wanted an en suite. Ronen came to the house the same day we called, asked what we envisioned for the space, and had a bid for us the next day. Rene and is his team were extremely courteous and attentive to detail, providing guidance on potential improvements based on their years of experience, including going to the home improvement store with us and helping choose the best products for the projects. They arrived on time every day, even on the weekend, and always stayed until at least 5 o'clock, making sure to clean up before they left for the evening. We have small children and a dog and Rene's team took extra care to ensure the doors remain closed and locked while they worked, even when they had to go in and out for supplies. They did such a great job with the en suite, we asked them to convert part of the Master bedroom space back into a 4th guest bedroom. We asked if they could get it done within ten days as we had guests coming. Ronen had a quote within an hour and Rene's crew started the next day. It was amazing to watch them convert the space efficiently and quickly and have it done in time for our guests. We did not have a single moment of concern during these projects as the whole team was in constant contact with us every step of the way. Ronen called and stopped by regularly to check on progress and Rene led his team with amazing attention to detail and efficiency. I cannot recommend the Remcon Design Build team enough.

Thank you Remcon! Our bathroom remodel was fantastic! We started off with a really small bathroom and no closet and ended up with a beautiful vintage looking bathroom with a walk in closet. Our budget was a bit tight and we for sure thought we'd end up going over however Ronen came over and discussed all kinds of options; we ended up under our budget! Ya that like never happens! The consultation was very visual since he was able to put the lay out on his Ipad and we could actually see what it would look like. Ronen also went with us to pick out the tile and paired it perfectly with the look I wanted. I'm glad I listened to his opinion. There weren't any surprise hidden fees and he was very upfront about how much everything would cost. Again something that rarely happens! When the workers came the first and foremost impression they gave was clean; there was butcher paper and plastic in all the right places and when they were done, everything was vacuumed and left very clean. The project took 3 weeks, but mainly due to the bathtub and tile that we wanted being late. The workers were respectful and worked hard. We have contacted Remcon for another project in our backyard and I'm sure we'll be pleased.

Remcon has done two separate jobs for us. That's certainly a recommendation in itself. The first was an exterior freshening...replacing dry rot damage, painting, new exterior trim, gates, lighting etc. Lots of TLC. We brought them back for a complete remodel of two tired 70s bathrooms which are now lovely and new. We were walked through the design process by an excellent project manager and the process went smoothly. Workers were always on time and very neat. They were amenable to changes that needed to be made along the way.

I used Remcon for an extensive remodel of a home. Remcon did a fabulous job with the remodel of the kitchen, bathrooms, and flooring of the home. Lots of positive comments came during an open house of the property (years later) on how unique (in a good way) and great job was done for a really great price! All the construction was done on time and efficiently! I would highly recommend them.

From start to finish Roy, his staff and subcontractors have provided me more than I could have hoped for in timely action and completion. There were no challenges that Roy didn't have thoughtful options to choose from for a most satisfying conclusion. His personal involvement was most appreciated. I would readily hire REMCON for any future design build projects. My bathroom remodel was extensive, looks magazine ready and has piqued the interest of my neighbors.

We had our kitchen and our livingroom "designbuilt" by Remcon for our Pacific Beach home. We were very satisfied by the renovation which went on time and within the set price. The kitchen was designed by Alon who introduced us to some lovely and very practical Caesar stone material for counter tops. The overall minimalist design fits well with our life style and my love of French cooking. The project was managed in our absence during our summer vacation. Our home and its content was left to Remcon and their excellent subcontractors. When we returned we found our home clean and in perfect order.

Remcon Design Build did a complete remodel of our 3 bedroom home in only 6 weeks with only 4 weeks of lead time. This included the kitchen, 2 bathrooms, new plumbing, new wiring, moving walls and ceilings, electrical, some flooring, baseboards and painting. The crews were respectful and responsive. We did end up with some cabinet track hardware that was faulty, but Remcon is back out to replace them with no questions or hesitations. That was the only issue, so I highly recommend their work and expertise.

Roy accomplished a kitchen and Master bath remodel- on-time and within budget. The kitchen was a complete tear-out; ceiling, lighting, new appliance relocation, etc; the Master bath was a major make -over. Roy worked with us through all phases of construction and kept us up-to-date as to schedule. The work was (and still is ) beautiful! Pictures were used in his flyer.

Did a great job. Had some difficulties with communication, but those were cleared and overall did an excellent job. We love our new kitchen!
