We hired Nestore Cabrera as our GC from this company and unfortunately it was a big mistake. Things got so bad (no show, very bad craftsmanship, drinking on site, massive delays, etc…) that the owner, Sol, had to get involved and eventually fired Nestore and his team from our project. The new contractor, Elias, was good and did his best to finish our project and fixed Nestore’s mistakes but unfortunately some couldn’t be fixed. We were very grateful that Sol took over this project however disappointed that he let things go on for so long before he got involved. This experience was extremely difficult and in the end we didn’t get what we were hoping for. We ended with poor quality, average cost and it took way more time than scheduled. As a result we do not recommend Re-Model Design & Build.

I don't usually write reviews unless it was a service that absolutely exceeded my expectations. In this circumstance Re-Model Design & Build gets all the praise for a full-scale remodel they did on my residence in San Jose. I was originally working with a different contractor and I had concerns that they weren't going to be able to meet my needs. That is when I met Tal Braun and he took in all of the information. There was zero pressure and he was very informative and insightful. He took me to see a project that his crew was working on in SJ and when I saw the crew working I knew that they were the right company for me.
The most impressive part of the process is the communication amongst the teams. Despite supply chain issues and delays, they were still able to hit all of the timelines because we had to move out of the house for the construction. I won't belabor the review, just know that you can trust Tal and his team. He was straightforward and trustworthy throughout the process. I have already referred him to several friends. If you have any doubts, drop them and go with Tal!

We recently got our home remodeled with Re-Model Design and Build and we have had such a great experience working with the team, especially with Tal Braun. From Day 1 Tal was very organized, detail oriented and very effective in communication. He ensured the whole process was smooth and a great experience for us. We were very impressed with how they finished work faster than the timelines we had set. So we redid the garage , 2 bathrooms, side yard and the whole house painting interior & exterior. The team did a very good job and Tal suggests a lot of improvements and ideas and we incorporated them and it ends up looking so much better for your house. Quality of work is amazing , they take care to ensure every thing is perfect and if we notice something and point it out, they fix it for us right away.
Tal and team are very flexible and we ended up getting more work done that we initially planned to and they were very accommodating of the changes.
We are very happy with the outcome and the house turned out to be more beautiful than we imagined it to be. All thanks to Tal and his Team. I highly highly recommend Tal Braun and his team from Re-Model Design and Build for any remodel work for your home. All our friends were very surprised to see how quickly they got all the work done for us with very great quality. I also recommended them to few of our friends and we plan to call them soon for roofing and other addition to our house.

We hired Re-Model, Design and Build to update our new home. We used them to:
1) remodel three bathrooms
2) replumb the entire house
3) install hardwood floors throughout
4) install a new water heater and EV charger
5) tile a fireplace surround
6) install recessed lighting
7) replace all interior doors
8) paint the entire house
We interviewed several companies, but we ultimately decided to go with Re-Model, Design and Build because of our project manager, Adi. We had a great rapport with Adi right away and felt we could trust her. She was upfront with us that our initial timeline was unrealistic, but she did everything she could to make sure the work was done as soon as possible. The quote she gave us was clear, and there were no overage or add-ons,
This was our first experience with extensive renovations, but Adi walked us through the process and gave us a detailed timeline so we would know what to expect. Communication was excellent throughout the project.
Our designer Anne did a great job helping us find materials and avoid rookie mistakes.
Our foreman was David, and he and his crew went above and beyond. We have been in our new home for several weeks now, and I am thoroughly impressed with the workmanship.
I wouldn't hesiate to use Re-Model Design and Build again for my next project.

Nothing less than 5 Stars for Remodel Design & Build
We just finished our home improvement project, We added 300sqft to our backyard and built a new kitchen, converted our existing kitchen to a bedroom and added a new bath room as well. We are really happy with the way it turned out Thanks to Sol and his company.
We interviewed several contractors and decided to go to Remodel Design and Build. Sol was there right from the first time we met him to explain the project until the very last day.
My experience working with him was great. He patiently heard what we wanted and made sure we were satisfied and happy. Any issues we had at the site was addressed and resolved immediately.
Sol will treat your project like his own and make sure its delivered the way you want it.
I would definitely recommend Remodel Design and Build for your home improvement project. We wish Re-model Design all the very best!!

When I started my Bathroom construction I contacted numerous contractors. After the interviews I selected Re-Model & Design. From the start they were very professional. The hard part was obtaining the building permit from the City. After they obtained the permit the job started on time and the work was done in a timely manor and completed to my satisfaction.
I requested the bathroom be transform into a handicapped shower which was no problem for them. I was very satisfied with the work and top of the line material was used on the job.
The price we agreed upon came in what was submitted. The work has been completed and I am satisfied with the completed results.

We worked with Tal, David & folks from Re-model Design for:
1) A complete remodel of our kitchen
2) Upgrades to 2 bathrooms
3) Recessed lighting/fans for the entire house
4) Painting for a few rooms
We loved that we were able to discuss all aspects of the work and got a very clear quote on the work and Re-model design had the best quote and their timelines also were super efficient.
The project took around 2 months to complete and we were blocked by city inspections but the team itself worked extremely fast to get things moving to help us finish on time.
The crew is extremely professional and special shout outs to the tile work and the painting.
We did have some issues with what we ordered, measurements taken incorrectly among other things but the team worked with us to help resolve it and find alternatives. It was a lot of extra work to communicate the designer's plans with the actual team each time a new piece of work was picked up. We also think staying on top of things and double checking everything helps to make sure both sides are on the same page for the project.
Overall, super happy with the end result and would not hesitate to use them again for big remodel projects in the future.

We recently purchased a house. Initially, we had a very rough idea of remodeling, which was limited up to building a storage space for the books and, at the most paint the kitchen cabinets. We were introduced Tal and David by Jong. In a very first visit, Tal gave us several suggestions that were hard to ignore. They all were making sense to our ultimate goal of adding storage space. As we moved through the project, we were amazed at the quality of the work Tal and his team put into our home. We were planning to move early by the end of the year when most of the holidays coincide. Tal and David worked extra hours to make sure we can move-in on our planned moving date without sacrificing the quality. We appreciate Tal and David for their help. I want to get back to them if I have any additional remodeling work in the future. I highly recommend Tal and his team.

I'm in the business of flipping houses. I interviewed with multiple general contractors in the region. I got a total of five biddings. Their bid was the reasonable price range. Senior manager Tal came out for an estimate and stayed about 2hours to communicate with all the detailed scope of work. Most of the other contractors just spent 15-20mins. He provided an estimate in two days without missing any details. Based on my experience, it was very impressive because I usually had to wait about a week for an estimate. Tal and the general manager Sol arranged a tour for us to go to see one of their current projects. We liked the quality of the job, so we hired them for our MV condo renovation. It was an extensive renovation including kitchen, two bathrooms, a new decorative fireplace, new hardwood floor, new doors, new texturing to remove the old popcorn ceiling. They finished the job as they promised on time and on budget. The foreman David was in charge of the whole project and tried to coordinate well with our requests. The final jobs finished with the finest attention to detail. We hope to continue this on our next projects.

It's now been 3 months since they finished our project and we couldn't be happier with our remodel and our decision to work with Re-Model Design & Build Co. My wife and & I know many people who have recently done remodeling projects with other contractors and we have compared our experience to theirs with respect to cost, schedule, workmanship and professionalism and our experience was superior (in some cases, far superior) in all of these areas. We had a complete remodel of our kitchen and 3 bathrooms as well as a new electrical service panel and numerous other small projects throughout the house. It feels like we are living in a brand new house.
We found Sol (the owner) and Tal (project manager) both very fair and helpful before, during and after the project. I can't think of anything they recommended that didn't turn out to be a good idea in the end. Many of these recommendations ended up saving us a lot of money. Also, they were very fair and timely in resolving unexpected issues (e.g. termite and dry-rot damage) and always very respectful and courteous.
The team of workers (led by Nhi Nguyen) were exceptional in all areas including plumbing, electrical, flooring, carpentry and tile work. These guys were great! Great attention to detail, and very patient and understanding when we changed our mind about something. They really took pride in their work and it showed in the results.
The last job we had done on the project was done by a different company (Superglass in Campbell ... also excellent!). They came and installed a custom shower door. The installer told us that he is typically the last contractor to work on remodel projects, and he typically does 2-3 of these shower doors every day.... so he decided to do a short, informal survey of customers in which he asks three questions: 1) what was the scope for your project? 2) how long did the contractor estimate that the project would take? 3) how long did the project actually take? I responded that they estimated 3 months and it took 3 1/2 months. He said that we were extremely lucky ... none of other 100+ customers he talked to had reported that the project was completed in the estimated time, and, in most cases, projects like ours ended up taking 2 to 3 times longer than the estimate.
Thank you Sol, Tal, Nhi & company!

We worked with Re-Model Design & Build for our kitchen remodel and we're very happy about our new kitchen! Although we had an idea to transform our old kitchen to new one with open floor plan, we're not sure where to start. It was our first remodel experience and we needed to deal with a load-bearing wall to make the floor plan open. We're overwhelmed but they helped us with the design and very detailed proposal. We interviewed several contractors but their proposal absolutely stood out others. Turns out our project was finished on time with no hidden costs. Their foreman was also very responsive and easy to communicate. Thank you all Re-Model Design & Build team!
