Reviews for Los Angeles bathroom remodelers
Recent success stories from people in the Los Angeles area.

I had some pavers loose on my patio that needed to be fixed. He responded quickly to the quote request and came out to my house just as fast. He was able to power-wash the patio (driveway, and my opposite side walk/stoop) to prepare the area, then come two days later to fix the pavers. He is extremely nice and provided a competitive price. Would for sure use again when I need a new home project completed.

Master builders is absolutely the best of the many contractors we have hired in the past 30 years.Based on our excellent experience when we
first hired the company two years ago to do a significant remodel of our home in Pacific Palisades, we again hired Master builders in the
last few months to do substantial work on a condominium unit we purchased on San Vicente Blvd in Santa Monica. The unit required new windows, bathroom fixtures and other
improvements and--most significantly-the kitchen and dining room had been flooded after a plumbing failure and needed substantial new flooring, cabinets, counter tops, wall, tile and more. Joseph--who was in charge of
the job for Master builders --is a knowledgeable, organized, trustworthy and engaging fellow
with an excellent eye for design and detail. He has particular skills in picking the best experts
(e.g., in tling, flooring, cabinetry etc.) and in efficiently scheduling and overseeing their efforts. In the end, the finished condominium unit is absolutely beautiful. There is no higher
praise that we can offer than this: Joseph applied his considerable skills in a way that he would if he was building a home for his own
family. We enthusiastically recommend him
