We had our bathroom & kitchen & windows fully renovated by Elite Builders & Design. Gabriel walked us through the process, was attentive and quick to reply, and his years of experience was invaluable. Additionally, the foreman Santiago was a pleasure to work with.

We're happy with how the work turned out. We asked for something nice and simple and modern, and that's exactly what we got. Recommended -- we'd work with Gabriel again.

We worked with Elite Home Builders on our ADU, which was a two car garage conversion in our backyard, and we’re really happy with the final result. It’s now a flexible guest room and office that also doubles as an indoor/outdoor entertaining space. The custom layout we came up with together works perfectly, and the passthrough window and outdoor bar have already become the star of the backyard. Guests keep commenting on the workmanship, the attention to detail, and how thoughtful everything feels.

A special shoutout to Sharon, who was fantastic to work with. He kept everything organized, stayed in close communication, and made the whole process feel manageable even when things got complicated. Gabriel was great too and really helped us think through finishes and the smaller details that make the space feel complete.

Like any construction project, we hit a few bumps along the way. The project took longer than expected, mostly due to a subcontractor delay and a very nit picky inspector who required a lot of extra steps. To their credit, Gabriel & Sharon stayed on top of both issues and chased everything down until it was resolved. The final price stayed within the contingency we planned for and the main overages were tied to the inspector’s requirements.

They were also super accommodating with the smart home upgrades I wanted to do myself. They ran low voltage conduit between the main house and ADU, let me pull ethernet and speaker wire after framing, and even coordinated timing with an external HVAC specialist so we could install the complex minisplit setup I wanted.

Every crew member who came through was courteous, respectful, and careful. The finishing work, especially the painting and drywall, was excellent. In the end we got exactly the ADU we envisioned and we’d happily work with Elite Home Builders again.

I used Elite home builders to do my ADU, they quoted me a price that’s nominal and everyone who saw their work were happy. Gabriel and Shannon were clear in their communication. Robert the construction guy and his crew were very focused and very knowledgeable.

We had the opportunity to work with Elite Home Builders. Overall, it was a very positive experience working with Gabriel and Sharon. Communication was excellent throughout the process. We would receive a photo, text, email and/or phone call from Gabriel in a timely manner. What we liked most about Elite was that they were transparent from the get go. We wanted someone that would be upfront which is how they operate. Upon our first meeting, Gabriel spent over 90-minutes with us going over the project. Of course, other hiccups came up along the way, however, they were taken care of. The final product is gorgeous. Their work is exemplary. We highly recommend Elite Home Builders for anyone looking to remodel their home.

Gabriel and his team recently did a complete remodel of our master bathroom. We couldn't be happier! After reading their reviews and meeting Gabriel in person, I was convinced that Gabriel, Sharon, and team would deliver an excellent finished product - and they did. Every one of their workers was amiable and we felt comfortable with them in our home. Gabriel and Sharon demonstrated integrity and honesty every step of the way and any concern we had was always properly addressed with no BS. Thank you for a beautiful remodel, gentlemen! We will definitely be contacting Elite Home Builders for any future work.
