Silicon Valley Builder

We made a great decision in picking SVB to build our house in Menlo Park. They built a quality house at a pretty reasonable price and the kids absolutely loved it! Qiming, the general contractor, was very communicative and detail oriented, making the building process very smooth and stress free. We highly recommend SVB to any prospective customers.

Highly recommend Qiming. We’re working with Qiming to build our new house and ADU on the Peninsula. She is very responsive, detailed-oriented, and most importantly, a trusted and honest builder. Qiming provides us regular updates on the home’s progress, answers our questions, and advises on material selection throughout this process. We interviewed several general contractors before going with Silicon Valley Builder and Qiming stood out from the rest for her responsiveness, details on the contract’s scope, and her knowledge in building high-quality custom homes. If you’re looking for a quality general contractor, look no further than Silicon Valley Builder.

Qiming was transparent and on time. She was very detail oriented and provided a lot of recommendations that were valuable in saving time and reducing costs. We couldn't ask for more.

I recently completed a project with Qiming as my general contractor, and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. She is honest, transparent, and incredibly knowledgeable, with extensive experience that shines through in every aspect of her work. Qiming’s standards for build quality are exceptionally high—sometimes even surpassing my expectations. She treats each house as if it were her house, always striving for the best possible results. Moreover, she is very responsive and keeps the job site impeccably clean. Even my neighbors noticed her dedication and commented on the excellent job she did. I highly recommend Qiming to anyone seeking top-quality construction services.

It has been an amazing experience working with Qiming on our new construction. Qiming is very candid, experienced, detail oriented, and most of all she treated the project as her own house. We had done a few small remodel projects before, and we were sometimes struggled to move things forward and felt we had to constantly keep an eye on the site. Those experiences made us a bit hesitant with building a new house, but Qiming has made it a very pleasant experience. She takes great initiatives with excellent planning and coordination skills; the construction phases connected smoothly, and we don't even need to push or check in. The projects are of high quality, we are building a small house and were worried about dimensions which turned out to be quite accurate. Our neighbors also speak highly of how the constructure site has been managed. Qiming built her own houses so she can really think and speak from the owner's perspective and provide constructive suggestions and feedback. I definitely would recommend SVB to any of my friends who wants to build a high-quality house in the area.

Great service! Qiming is a very nice, professional, thoughtful and stick-to-details contractor. She always thinks about things ahead, and gives me really great advices about my house. Highly recommended!

The Silicon Valley Builder is very reportable for our new construction project. We keep very good communications. Also the builder often gave us some good suggestions during the construction and helped us to improve the design. And timing, they keeps the project process on schedule, even faster. I trust them.

One of the best and organized contractor to work with. Always professional customer oriented and super organized. happy to be part of her team.

I purchased a new home built by SVB/Qiming that has exceptional quality and detail throughout. Although I was not her primary client in the build (the developer was), she has very willingly and helpfully engaged directly with me on many issues to help finish off all open items in the home. Her most impressive qualities as a GC are: (1) her lightning fast responsiveness to any question, always going above and beyond (2) her helpfulness in coming up with solutions for clients even if not directly financially impacting her (3) most importantly, her willingness to stand by her work and show up to fix even the most minor detail if not perfect (she does not avoid or make excuses like many other GCs I've worked with). I have already, and will continue to highly recommend Qiming and SVB.

SV Builder is great and reliable - we moved in our new house a year ago and wanted to write a second review. Just calling out a few positive experiences. Project Timeline. We started the project in summer 2019 and then pandemic hit. There was understandably some delay but they made a tremendous effort to help us move back in before Christmas 2020. Pricing & Billing. Throughout the project, their pricing and billing have been transparent and reasonable. I recalled there were things we decided we didn't want (e.g., no more glass next to the kids bathroom) and they proactively told us they were going to take off an amount without our asking. Fixes after move-in. We moved in a year ago. They continued to be responsive and accommodating to our small issues and requests.

We hired Qiming to rebuild our house based on a friend’s recommendation. Qiming is professional, easy to work with, and familiar with the local building codes. Qiming managed to complete our project despite the challenges of a pandemic. Qiming paid attention to what mattered to us, and went the extra mile to bring our visions to life. I highly recommend Qiming.

I have had the immense pleasure of working with Qiming in my previous firm. She is uncompromising in her quality of work and craftsmanship. She is conscientious with regard to budget and time. The one thing I most appreciate her for is her ability to follow the plans provided by the architect which is appreciated by the owner and architect alike. The owner and the architect spend a considerable amount of time to come up with the design and it is a joy to see all the details come alive when one visits her project site. I would highly recommend Qiming to homeowners who are looking to build their new home or remodel their existing home.
