"If you are looking for a knowledgeable, hardworking and trustworthy company, not to mention a kind, respectful, good communication and good person, Vitaliy owner of AVD Construction is who I highly recommend. Our project started as an owner build ADU garage conversion. We interviewed 3 subcontractors for each initial trade. Vitaliy was initially interviewed for framing, it was immediately evident that he was very knowledgeable about construction and codes. His pricing was fair and within other quotes, so we hired him. After a couple visits, and reviews of blueprints we discovered that Vitaliy was a general contractor. Since we were early on in our project, we would have him bid at each step, which we would choose him every time. As the project progressed Vitaliy would catch errors, by other trades and engineering. Most of these catches saved us time and money. There were times that he would fix some of these errors to help us out and save time. There is a specific example that comes to mind. Concrete sub had just poured their concrete, they took off the garage side door and our larger garage door wouldn't close. I was feeling very uneasy about having access to our garage and home from the street. Vitaliy pulled the door out of the pile of trash, cut it down to fit in opening, put hinges back on and wired garage door closed. I think he could see how happy and grateful I was, I remember saying "I think I'll be able to sleep tonight." Vitaliy said "treat other people's home like it's your own." That really stuck with me. Vitaliy made suggestions along the way, that made sense and often was overlooked by our novice eyes. He explained things, so that we could understand, he taught us so much. We are so grateful and lucky to have found him. We went on to hire AVD Contruction to frame, drywall, tape/mud walls, completely tile 2 bathrooms (floors and showers), Install 2 French doors, windows, all vents, stucco entire sides where new doors and windows were installed, plumb our kid's bathroom. Vitaliy was there for every inspection. Every job he took on, he and his workers were respectful, communicated each step of the way and they always treated our home like it was their own. If I had to do it again, I would have hired AVD Construction to do the whole project."

"Absolutely awesome to work with..... the bid was detailed and complete. He listened to what my vision was. I was impressed with the dust control, the crew cleaned up their area every night, including vacuum the dust, which kept the migration of the dust to a minimum. Everyone was friendly and courteous, Paul's experience came through as we came across "surprises" and he quickly identified solutions. From tear down to completion my master bathroom was done in 2 weeks and 2 days and I just love it..... Thank you Future Generation Construction... :-)"

"We had waited for 20 years to have our kitchen remodeled and we didn't know how to get started. Crystal Oak Builders provided us with an exceptionally great remodel experience. They remodeled our kitchen, laundry area, 1/2 bath, and windows. Their communication was excellent with frequent check ins, great care for our well being (we stayed in our home during remodel), respect of our time (we work full time from home). They stayed on the project timeline with no major delays, and they were responded promptly to our questions. They clearly communicated the financials and helped us make good choices with material costs to align with our budget as well as our design wishes. From design to execution, Crystal Oak Builders provided complete fulfillment for our remodel, and it was an easy and smooth experience. We are so happy with our remodel by Crystal Oak Builders!"

"After contacting a number of companies we decided on Best of Remodel. They were wonderful to work with and very flexible with some of the changes we made. We felt their pricing was very reasonable and the crews that came to our house were very nice, respectful and talented. Best of all we love our bathroom. It is beautiful. Special thanks to Arthur and Alex They were always just a phone call away if we had questions. A great company."

HomeAdvisor makes it easy to connect with pros near you. You can read reviews, get quotes and book appointments all in one place.
Depending on the type of project, you may find subtle differences in the hiring process. Here’s a look at task-specific advice.
You can use HomeAdvisor to help evaluate a contractor’s qualifications. We put pros through a screening process, and award badges to high-performing contractors. You can find these badges on a pro’s HomeAdvisor profile, and sometimes, his or her website.
Your research doesn’t stop here. Once you’ve found a few prospective companies, make an call to ask a few questions about work history, licensure and more:
In most cases, the responses you get to these three questions will give you a very good idea of the right pro for your project. If you have more than one front-runner, these additional questions can help you narrow it down.
Any good contractor will answer these questions, and most will appreciate dealing with a client that takes such an active interest in finding good service. On the other hand, if a contractor gives you a hard time with these questions, you probably want to find someone else.
