Featured Reviews for New & Custom Home Builders in San Mateo

Boutique Home Remodeling
New & Custom Home Builders in San Mateo
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 2, 2022
“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!!”
Golden View Renovation
New & Custom Home Builders in San Mateo
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMay 15, 2021
“Hi :) my name is Annabelle and we are from Sunnyvale California, I just finished a new renovation, and I would like to share with you guys my wonderful experience, we started the process with a lot of fears because of previous experience that we had with another contractor two years ago, from the first meeting with Asi, me and my husband felt the honesty and integrity right away, we describe to her what we would like to achieve in our kitchen remodeling project and together with ideas that came from her designer we decided on the final layout, We needed a new kitchen renovation for our home ASAP, we are all working from home, my husband and I and our older daughter, and the kitchen became much more important, it was very surprising but we succeeded to pass all the inspections on time, The communication part was great, personally I preferred to communicate with Asi directly but they are working with a personal online portal that some people will find useful, we needed a few times that Asi will come to us to discuss on a few changes and we always felt comfortable to share with her our concerns and ideas, and eventually we are very satisfied from the end result!”

“Had a great experience with Ofer and his crew. Came as scheduled, completed the job in 5 months. Everything looks great - The work went without a hitch so it ended faster than I imagined it would be too. I have more jobs planned for next year and I will use them again and I highly recommend using them for your next construction work!”
