A pleasure to work with. Jeff and his team did a beautiful job renovating our walkout basement space. Great design sense. Competitive pricing for high-quality work.

While this review is vastly overdue, I wanted to share with you my experience with Yousef.
He is very good at his profession and takes great care in what project you are trying to complete. In my case, it was home repair and renovation, but even if you wanted to build something from scratch, like the pyramids at Giza or a medieval castle like the one in Europe, Yousef can and will help.
What I look for is the entrepreneurial fortitude and character to want to work and he does represent that, and his price is fair and competitive. He is very creative and can easily mesh with your own creative ideas. It’s fun watching him stare at a project work area and you can see the imagination, (or the gears turning), as he is thinking, processing, and envisioning what you need and want done. It’s almost like watching a child or an adult experience a wondrous moment, or when an athlete or musician gets into the zone, and you are just there to witness the moment.
Don’t let the white Mercedes and Yousef’s lack of a tool belt throw you off. At first glance one may think “this guy?”…….”Is going to create, fix, and or repair?” Yes, my good people. He will. No tool belt at first meeting is easily replaced by his congeal demeanor and nice shoes. He does carry project pieces in his car but does have a truck and crew (often referred to as my people) at the ready. Perhaps, if you get the fortune to discuss beyond work…..the car, just like people……has a story.
We talked about topics like the challenges of dealing with teens abiding by family house rules and financial discussions that involved deep dives into commercial banks and credit unions. As they say, I laughed and cried…..the times I cried internally was when I looked at the amount the projects would cost. I still look back, reflect, ponder……..and shed a tear. But I take comfort in those memories and moments, because I felt at ease when Yousef would look at me and simply say, “don’t worry”.
To say that I endorse Yousef is obvious and an understatement. I also endorse and commend you, my fellow remodelers, repairers, renovators, and creators alike. Were it not for you to invest your time and resources in such endeavors, what hope would we even have to remodel, repair, renovate, and even create in our personal lives.

Hector's team did great work ahead of schedule but what I appreciated more were his project management skills. He made this renovation process so much easier than I thought it would be.
1. He listened well (one of the reasons I chose him over other good contractors that gave me a quote).
2. Pleasure to speak with. working with my vision but letting me know if he didn't agree.
3. Gave me options for design pieces which made it a lot easier.
4. When I changed orders he was flexible and understanding.
5. Gave a realistic price and stayed on budget and let me know upfront in the quote of one risk in particular that may cost me much more so I budgeted for contingency.
6. Didn't nickel and dime whenever there was a non major change or pick up.
Highly recommend.
