Second Floor Addition Builders in Capistrano Beach, CA

"My 91-year-old father needed work done on his house. The tile and grout on his second story balcony were no longer waterproof and subsequently, water leaked through the floor and caused damage to the garage ceiling. The garage was located directly below the balcony. After years of water soaking the rafters, beams, plywood and drywall, part of the ceiling collapsed. Upon further inspection, there was severe rotting of wood and material between the garage ceiling and the balcony floor. We noticed that Horizon was doing a very nice remodeling job on a neighbor's house. I spoke with a worker who referred me to David Eskin, a member of the Horizon management team. I also spoke with the homeowner, and they were very pleased with the work Horizon was doing. David came over, met with my father and me, inspected the damage and gave us a reasonable estimate. We signed a contract, which included proof of Horizon's contractor's license, worker compensation insurance and bonding. These were very important to my father; he wanted no liability for the project. We were more than satisfied with David and his workers. Everything that David promised was done. The project was completed in a timely manner and there were no add Ons or surprises. The workers quality of work was great; they were professional, friendly and clean. David constantly communicated with us and always gave us updates on the progress. If I had a concern, he immediately addressed it, with no excuses or upselling. The garage ceiling and balcony looks perfect, all of the stucco work and paint matches exactly to what it looked like fifty years ago when it was brand new. The experience with David and Horizon could not have been smoother. I mostly dealt with David by text and kept my elderly father out of the process to eliminate any stress on my father's part. I highly recommend David and Horizon for any home project. David is very professional, personable and responds immediately to any questions or concerns. They made our home project very smooth and with the least amount of stress as possible. We are very pleased with the finished project. I would not hesitate to use them again."

"I am writing this DETAILED review, because I am sure most prospective customers will welcome and appreciate it. BACKGROUND: How many times had we seen TV shows about vendors winning a job, then disappearing half-way through the project, leaving the homeowners with a mess everywhere. We were hyper-sensitive to this fact, so we really did our due diligence. We interviewed five separate contractors. Opulent Design Build (ODP) got our business, because: 1. They thoroughly reviewed our project plans and provided guidance (without making us feel like an open ATM). 2. They were the ONLY vendor to line-item each major project item cost. 3. ONLY vendor that came in upfront and said all material was cost+ 20%. Nothing more and nothing less. 4. They even welcomed us purchasing some of the materials on our own, saving us some money. For example, when we saw toilets on sale at Home Depot, we purchased three, saved the receipt and they deducted it from the project cost. 5. Reputation: After reviewing ODB's business records and job history, they truly out-shined the rest. We were confident they would still be in business throughout the project, unlike some other vendors that showed up with questionable records and spotty history. 6. Mgmt availability was impressive, in that when we had some questions and I requested to speak with the owner to wrap things up, he met with me the next day. Not many owners take personal ownership of their business like Eddie. PROJECT DETAILS: After a month of reviewing contractors, we were very tight with our timeline, as we had 2 months to get this full-house major remodel completed. a) Payment Schedule: ODB came to us with a payment schedule aligned to project milestones, something you don't often find in the industry. Often vendors just expect their payment on a due date, regardless of whether or not they completed their previously-indicated project tasks. We had eight payments set up, with the first being larger to allow for them to buy materials needed to start the project. Everything worked out as promised and we honored our side by making timely payments too. b) Workers: Right from the start, their Senior Construction Manager, Johnny S. was onsite managing the start of the project. To my surprise, he would show up onsite almost EVERY DAY in the morning to answer any questions his team might have. One thing we loved about Johnny was that we had direct access to him too, via mobile phone. My wife and I would easily text him or call with any concerns or questions. His response time was usually within the hour. The other thing that impressed me is that consistently, we had 2-4 guys on our job site SIX days a week for the FULL two months. In the beginning, Johnny even had 6-7 guys working for a full two weeks, since most of the heavy lifting fell into those initial weeks. Oh, and these guys were really great too. Very respectful of my family and property. No smoking, drinking or profanity. Although many spoke Spanish, there was always someone their that could converse in English if needed. c) Work Quality: Johnny told me that the reason all his guys were super talented in their respective areas is because he is extremely focused on hiring only the best. These guys were truly amazing, and the quality really came through in all aspects. Johnny would back me up too, if we mutually agreed that something was not looking right and he would instruct his guys to do it over, regardless of the additional time and money required at his expense. d) The Unexpected: Three-quarters of the way thru the project, after all the walls were finished and painted, we developed TWO slab-leaks. Johnny calmed me down and instead worked with me to ensure that the problem got resolved in a timely fashion and a reasonable cost. We cannot recommend this company enough! HIRE THEM - PERIOD! :-)"

"Have done multiple major renovation projects with Ignacio and IGS Construction over the years. They are always there, never change the budget, no hassle, no sales, finish in great time, just straight-forward, honest good people. I love the kitchens, bathrooms and exterior work Ignacio has done for me. Not only does he have an amazing eye for design and layout, he cares so much and is so fun to work with because he works so hard and loves what he does. I actually look forward to doing remodels with them! Since my background is in design, I know what I am seeing, and they do beautiful work. Very easy for me to recommend this company. 10 stars."

I couldn't be happier with the results!"

"everything was perfec and clean"

"I am so happy that after 2 years of interviews and interviews, I found Newland Construction Company to do the work. I was impressed from the beginning how meticulously Terry was. I finally found the people that I feel comfortable of putting our home into their hands. They know what they are doing, they worked hard and clean I will hire them over and over without any hesitation. I was impressed at every step of the work they did right from the drawing. The price and, the breaking down of payments was great. The communication was wonderful and I am very happy with my new bedroom and bathroom."

"We hired McCormick for a bathroom remodel, and the whole process was smooth and professional. Khaled helped us make smart choices on design and materials that worked for both our budget and style. Now, our bathroom feels like a spa every time we step in. I appreciate the quality and attention to detail. These folks definitely know what they?re doing!"
