Drömhus General Contractors

Stanford, CA General Contractors

August 12, 2015

“I am an architect and have worked with Dromhus on several projects over the past 10 years. I have always enjoyed working with them as they are professional, courteous, client and service oriented and endeavor to deliver high quality work to all of their projects. My clients have also been very happy with them and I try to recommend them to my clients whenever possible. I look forward to the next project that I get a chance to work with them on. Patrick”

Merrick Construction & Design

Stanford, CA General Contractors

December 27, 2019

“Justin and his team were fantastic! Merrick Construction and Design are a fast, efficient and professional service. We called Justin to repair an old broken window. The job was done professionally and correctly. I work for a non-profit agency and it is difficult to find honest vendors. Justin and his team are amazing to work with and we will definitely hire them again for any other home repair.”

Century Bay Builders Inc.

Stanford, CA General Contractors

April 23, 2020

“We hired Century Bay Builders to remodel 3 bathrooms and a laundry room. I was impressed with them right off the bat - the office called to confirm my appointment for an estimate and our awesome project manager Ariel arrived on time and was very professional, thorough, detail-oriented, and had a good sense of humor (very important when doing any remodel!). He was very responsive to emails and texts and always reassuring when issues came up. His crew (Carlos, Fredy, and Marcos) were courteous, meticulous, and did beautiful work. We were especially amazed at how quickly and cleanly the demo went and appreciative that they kept the dust to a minimum since we were living in the house during the remodel. Everyone always checked with me regularly to make sure I was happy with everything. The finished bathrooms are magazine-worthy and we couldn't be happier. When I'm ready to do my next project I'll be happy to work with Ariel and Century Bay Builders again.”

Palo Alto Building Company

Stanford, CA General Contractors

April 24, 2019

“I highly recommend Palo Alto Building Company as a general contractor. I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Chris Loops on our home renovation in 2015. I can recommend him highly and without reservation. Throughout the course of the renovation, Mr. Loops was a consummate professional. He was accurate in his initial assessment of the scale and cost of our project. He was clear in his record keeping and time log. He chose and managed the sub-contractors well. There was no better intermediary for ensuring our renovation projects were always running smoothly and at peak times. He was a great coordinator and leader with his subcontractors to follow his lead. This is because Chris exudes a level of knowledge and expertise that simply inspires trust. Our job was done with care and precision. He is a gifted carpenter and the custom cabinetry he designed and executed are perfect. What I appreciated most about Chris was his keen ability to get answers. What he did not know off the top of his head, he knew exactly where to go. I never waited more than a few minutes to hear solutions about location, equipment, cost of materials, labor and time management. With Chris on site, my day-to-day operations were always in good hands. In addition, he is extremely clean and tidy in the workplace. Chris along with his professional staff never left the worksite in disarray. They vacuumed all drywall dust daily. Mr. Loops took special care to prevent any of the job dust from trailing throughout the house. The only complexity in working with Mr. Loops is that, as he himself will tell you, good work takes time to complete. Patience is required when you work with a perfectionist. Our project took time to complete, but the estimation was 100% accurate. Palo Alto Building Company under promised, and over delivered in every aspect of the project! We had a wonderful outcome and a work of art to enjoy now.”

TC Construction Services

Stanford, CA General Contractors

January 23, 2013

“Bob and Cassady Monsen did a complete remodel on our ranch-style home in San Jose in 2009, including a new kitchen, bathroom, front of the house, and second story. They transformed our small house into a spacious and comfortable home we adore. Bob and company completed our job on time with great attention to detail and superb quality, both in materials and craftmanship. Bob is a man of the highest integrity, and we have recommended him to many of our friends and colleagues. He has remodeled no fewer than four of our friends' homes. We were also pleased with the quality of his crew and how he so quickly dealt with issues that arose. We are so pleased to have Bob and Cassady as our life-long family friends.”

GR8WORK Builders Inc.

Stanford, CA General Contractors

May 29, 2014

“We recommend GR8WORK Builders and Bob Rosenberg without qualification as outstanding remodelers at the Vi of Palo Alto. We obtained a Carmel Valley unit this January. We had the opportunity to meet with three contractors from the Vi list and had two bids on the project. Bob's bid was complete, detailed and understandable with a fixed price and completion schedule. We had weekly meetings on site to review the work and outline the future work. Billings were timely and clear and the price was as bid. Bob and his crew are true professionals working in a difficult environment under close contact by the Vi. Bob had great ideas and his suggestions were very helpful. Bob's longstanding work relationship with the Vi's engineering department made the job run smoothly throughout. We wouldn't hesitate in using Bob again or recommending him to others.”

Latala Homes

Stanford, CA General Contractors

September 19, 2016

“We hired Paul Latala and Latala Homes to help us rebuild our entire home after a house fire. We wanted to get our home back and built as soon as we could and Latala Homes not only rebuilt our beautiful home, but they rebuilt quickly and in so many aspects, what was a seemingly tough job became a wonderful experience. Paul and his staff are timely, professional and kind. We enjoyed working with not only Paul, but his subcontractors as well. We loved the attention to detail, we loved Paul's guidance with where-to buy fixtures, tile, windows, even trusting Paul when we would simply show him a photo and he knew where to go. Paul worked with our insurance and our budget and was always cautious of the end-dollar amount as well as keeping in mind our personal style. We cannot say enough good words about Paul, Latala Homes and Paul's extreme talent. We made it back into our special home within 6 months of giving the job to Paul and we are forever grateful. He kept us on track, kept us smiling and got us home...I would recommend Latala Homes to all!!!!!”

DH Remodeling

Stanford, CA General Contractors

December 1, 2019

“No 2nd quote! Yes! I signed my first ADU contract with DH! Either Sam and his team are too good, or I am too blind trusting, and so far, I think it is the former. Sam took me to work sites, and had me meeting designer Shon, on phone with his manager, Idan. The team works very well together. I like that. Sam has the ability to remove all the doubts and questions I have, and he is a creative problem solver I did not mark a 5 star because we just started. Sometimes, Joey don't reply my text right away, I understand that everybody is busy, and I don't immediately reply everything either, and on issues gating the progress, Sam is very responsive. All in all, things look good.”

IBA Builders

Stanford, CA General Contractors

November 1, 2017

“My parents recently celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary and I wanted to have their master bathroom renovated as an anniversary present. Genesis Pro Builders sat down with me and listened to all of the ideas I had for their room and managed to work almost all of it into the designs. When my parents saw the finished product, they were both speechless. It looked amazing. They laid new floors, painted the walls, and installed new countertops as well as cabinets and light fixtures. I really appreciate the work this company did and how special they made my parents’ anniversary.”

Home remodeling contractors are a must for successful completion of a renovation.
