We recently converted our garage into an ADU and used "Better LA GC #2" after getting a few different quotes. We could not be happier with the results. A few main things stand out for us. 1. Their workers were always incredibly friendly, and took care of any issues that popped up. They took care to not disturb our neighbors and us living inside the house. 2. They were responsive to any changes we requested and add ons we had, but didn't try to push a bunch of extras on us once ground was broken. 3. Most importantly, they finished AHEAD of schedule. While not trying to jam a bunch of things in at the end, they ended up finishing early and we couldn't be happier. And they are still responsive to coming back if we notice any small things that pop up. They usually have someone there to fix the issue within a day. All told the entire project was much easier than we thought it would be and would recommend "Better LA GC #2" to anyone. They might not be the cheapest option you find, but it's worth it to have peace of mind that the people doing the work will respond and listen to issues that arise. - Tom B., Aug 21, 2023
Super professional from start to finish. The entire team was fantastic. We turned our garage into an ADU unit for my mother in law and she is so happy with the finished product. We will definitely hire "Better LA GC #2" again. Highly recommend. - Arlene C., Apr 29, 2024
"GC" remodeled our bathroom in 2019 under another company. I liked his professionalism and work ethic so much that we end up hiring him in 2020 to start our ADU project under his own company, "Better LA GC #2". Although our ADU ran into some unexpected challenges and delays, "GC" and his team stayed true to their promise by completing our project to our satisfaction to the very last detail. Our ADU turned out beautifully. We will work with "Better LA GC #2" in future projects. - Livia W., Oct 22, 2021
It was great working with "Better LA GC #2". They helped us build an ADU attached to our garage. I'm quite happy with the results. "GC" and team are very responsive and always patient with my questions. I have worked with different contractors in the past with different remodeling projects. "Better LA GC #2" is the best i've worked with. Sure there were issues here and there as with all remodeling work but what stood out about them was they were always willing to fix it. Was this completely hands off for me? No, but I don't think hands off remodeling exists unless you are willing to pay the money for someone to do that for you. Overall though they were great to work with. Even after the project, they are willing to come out to fix things for me which is really great and helpful. - Christine Z., Oct 27, 2023
I have the kitchen of my dreams, thanks to "Better LA GC #2". The team gives you service that you just can't find anymore. We have done small and large remodels over the years, and we have never received service like we did with this top-notch team. From the beginning of design to the end product, they worked with us every step of the way. "Project Manager" was great about letting us know what they were doing and when they were doing it and was always available if we had questions. The team were unobtrusive and left a clean workspace every night. They are professional, experienced, trustworthy, and service-oriented. We will be using this team in the future. I highly recommend "Better LA GC #2". Overall, we are very pleased that we chose "Better LA GC #2". We know that our home was built well, with quality products, and we are so happy we finally did it. _- Ali N., May 2, 2024
I highly recommend AP Remodeling! I have collaborated with them on several projects as I am in the property management industry throughout Southern California. AP is not only professional, but honest, straightforward and produces high quality workmanship! - K L., May 17, 2024
I love love love my new primary bathroom that "Better LA GC #2" made for me. Daniel, Josh, and the rest of their team were a DREAM to work with! Not only were they extremely nice and very professional, but they were very easy to work with. They had excellent communication skills, provided solutions when issues came up, and were always happy to answer any questions that I had. Additionally they were extremely efficient with their work streams and finished everything on time. I 100% would work with them again and will be referring them to friends and family! - Carmen-Rosa W., Apr 29, 2024
We recently had our guest bathroom remodeled by "GC" and the team, and couldn't be happier with the entire experience. From the initial consultation to the final walkthrough, everything was professional, smooth, and exceeded our expectations. The quality of the work is outstanding. It's clear that the team takes pride in their craftsmanship, and the attention to detail is impressive. The project itself was completed in exactly 4 weeks, which is exactly what they promised. The crew was punctual, courteous, and cleaned up meticulously each day. Communication was excellent - they kept us informed throughout the process and were always happy to answer any questions we had. We were so impressed with their work that we've already booked them to remodel our master bathroom! We can't wait to work with them again. If you're looking for a reliable, professional, and skilled contractor, look no further than "Better LA GC #2". Highly recommended! - Becca K., Mar 18, 2024
These guys were amazing. I have worked with construction companies before who quote you 6-8 weeks and then take 9 months (actually happened) or to whom you give only one specific instruction regarding what non-toxic stain you would like them to use and then, of course, they don't and won't fix it (also happened). So needless to say, I was skeptical starting my kitchen remodel, but honestly, these guys did an amazing job. They showed up every day to work on the kitchen (which may not seem like much, but is when the others guys won't show up for sometimes weeks at a time) and were careful and through. They would talk to me and keep me updated so that nothing was missed and to double check, if not triple check, to make sure nothing got screwed up. They quoted me 4 weeks and finished in 5, where the only real delay was caused because I went out of town and couldn't finish my part timely (I wanted to do the painting with a particular technique for lime painting to match what I had previously painted). Even after the project was finished except for one last small part, and they had already been paid in full, they showed up to finish the job right away when the piece came in. I highly recommend these guys if you ever need construction work done. - Kat Q., Apr 18, 2023
I hired "Better LA GC #2" for my home addition and renovation project. We added on square footage, took down walls to make the space more open concept, renovated the kitchen and one bathroom and built a master en-suite. I chose them based on the project manager;' attention to detail, excellent communication skills, reassuring vibe and his apparent willingness to go above and beyond. We interviewed 3 contractors and he was the only one who created a 3d design to help me see the potential for my project. Daniel was great in that he gave me a list of all the finishing projects I would need to purchase and this helped me to be able to research for the finishes I truly wanted and was able to obtain them in a timely manner to keep my project on track. Throughout the reno we had unforeseen issues such as weather (extensive rain), needing to rent a temporary power pole, a very particular city inspector, and waiting on steps needing to be taken by the utility company that delayed my project. "Project Manager" was very helpful, responsive, solution-focused, reassuring, and calmed me down when I was worried or stressed. Every time I had a question he would address it that day and was always willing to meet or speak about my concerns, then to help with problem solving. I love my newly renovated home and I would work with "Project Manager" and "Better LA GC #2" again! I highly recommend them!!! - Aisha W. July 7, 2023
