They are worth their weight in gold. I could not be happier with the outcome on my addition project. From our first meeting I could tell they were serious about delivering a professional service, and gave us a lot of insight. Every step in the process was seamless, and transparent. I was prepared for the worst, given all the horror stories with addition projects, to my surprise I found the best. Thomas, took the time to understand my vision for the project, and give me suggestions to the design to optimize budget. I ended up using their design-build service, and they presented to me exactly what I wanted, coming from an engineering background the whole process made sense. Once we were ready to start construction, their magic really showed. Their attention to detail, and commitment to quality was evident throughout. One thing that really surprise was their level of communication, but both onsite-and office staff. They were always quick to respond, and kept me informed. This was reassuring as I was living offsite during the process. Any of my questions or concerned were quickly addressed. But I think the thing that impressed me the most was their commitment to staying on budget, and finishing on the timeline promised. I could sense this from the top, down, but never cutting corners. Their work product speaks for itself. I can honestly say their commitment to customer satisfaction is something I have never experience in the construction industry. I am happy I worked with them, and thank them for transforming my house into the home of my dreams !

we recently had the pleasure of working with the pilla group on a second story addition project. We had a cape that we wanted to turn into a colonial. From start to finish the entire experience was nothing short of exceptional. From our first meeting, thomas, the consultant demonstrated a deep understanding of our vision, and requirements. Their team was professional, attentive, and genuinely committed to making our dream home a reality. The communication throughout the project was outstanding, we were kept informed at every stage, and any questions or concerns were addressed right away. The finished result came out better than expected. One aspect that particularly impressed us was the project management. The team stuck to the timeline, and the budget discussed during the design phase. We only learned of issues after they were solved. Their dedication to excellence, transparent communication, and commitment to client satisfaction, sets them apart in the industry. Thank you, for turning our vision into reality !

Best construction company hands down. From our first meeting I could tell they were the right firm for the job. The estimate was detailed, and professional prepared. My house needed complete renovation. They communicated at every step of the way. The work was top quality, and done quickly. Overall great experience.

It was a phenomenal experience working with the pilla group. I liked their up-front pricing. The quality of the work spoke for itself. They paid attention to detail. My house felt dated, and by the time the project ended it felt like a new home. They were professional at every step of the way. Me, and my wife asked for many changes, and they were more then accommodating, and patient. The project was done ahead of time, and on budget. I can say I would recommend them to anyone.

I would start by saying they are remarkable professionals. I first saw their work on a neighbors house, and they extended out, and it seem to be preformed so quickly. I ask my neighbor to tour their house, and the work was great. From the first meeting it was clear they were the right company for the job. I liked how they were upfront about all the cost, and the process. They provided me great advice, and I felt more confidence then with any other company. I hired them for the design build, they extended the ranch, and made it into a colony with a second story. The had told me the city would take a while to approve the permits, and they were right on the money with the timeline. However when it was approve, they flew. I have never seen something so amazing. I cannot emphasize how quickly the rough came together. In in the begging it happened in a serious of sprints. When the rough work was complete they transformed the interior space, so efficiently. It seemed like the actual was well planned out. The quality was top tier, but the best part is they stuck to our budget. This was always my biggest fear, as I know of some many horror story with additions, it stopped me from doing it for years. I am not sure what systems or software they use. I am grateful that everything turned out perfect, and wish all company were like theirs. True processionals who keep to their word.

The team at the pilla group was beyond amazing. I bought a dated home with the intend to update it. They were the far the most professional, only another company close. But I am glad I went with them, almost didn't due to the long wait time. It was the fact that they invited me to see their other projects, it spoke for itself. I had to wait almost 3 months for the project to actually start. However once work began the crews are by far the fastest I have ever seen. They worked at an unbelievably pace. It was like each sub had been trained to sprint their part. I was blown away. Normally when this happens it is due to shobby work but they were attentive to detail, and the finishes were perfect. They started early, left late, and worked all weekends. They completely updated the kitchen, 3 bathrooms, basement, and painted both all interior/exterior of my 3600 sq ft house. My sister had a similar project last close to a year by the company I almost went with, they were done in 6 weeks, granted mine was close 1000 sq ft larger. I don't think I could recommend them more highly.

It was a pleasure working with the Pilla group. I have wanted to turn my basement into usable space for a while. I was recommended to them via a family friend, who had work with them in the past. They quickly came out took my information, and prepared a detailed proposal, I compared it to a few others, and it was by far the most precise, and professional. I have a problem with moisture, and they gave me some options. I liked the fact they present me with a range of options, and kept me well informed. I had mostly used it for storage, but I gave them a few ideas, and they ran with them. They took care of everything, and all while being mindful of the budget. All their subs, were very professional, and respectful of my house. I thought the timeline seemed overly optimistic given the scoop, and size of the basement 1400 sf. But to my surprise they finished sooner, then their initial timeline. True to their word they stayed on budget. My basement is now beautiful, and it no longer feels like a basement. They built a bar, bathroom, and a walkout. Their idea for a mini split, and waterproofing did the trick for any moister. Eduardo was amazing to work with. I would hire them again, without a second thought.

I would start by saying they were the most professional of any company we interviewed. They have a very detailed proposal, which is very upfront about pricing. Their attention to detail was a good sign of their work. Overall very competitive pricing. I found them to be very concerned about the budget. The work was done very quickly, without scarifying quality. The processes overall was very efficient. I would recommend them for any home improvement project.

Top quality, all the way. They transformed my basement, and the project was done at the price agreed. I would say it was worth waiting. Great customer service, from everyone, from onsite staff to admin. The best part the project was done very quickly, without cutting corners.

I had a mostly positive experience with the pilla group, they had a detailed, and transparent estimate. They began on the timeline promised, and surprisingly beat their own project deadline. The different crews ran their parts of the job like sprinters. In particular the drywall guys were nothing short of amazing, a smaller drywall job from my kitchen remodel took 3 times as long. Makes me wonder if that company took so long to justify their prices, and change orders. This brings me to the best part, we stay on budget at the price agreed. Now to the bad, first I was given an estimate in April, I told them I still needed to get more quotes. I was told by the salesmen that the prices would not change, but when I went to contract them in June, I was given a revised estimate that reflected a rather large price increase. Second the lead time had gone from 3 weeks to 5 weeks. I felt this was a bit bait, and switch. Third at times, it felt like my project was minimized. My friend who referred me to them received a dedicated project manager, but I was instead given a site coordinator Eduardo was nice, but he was not the engineer pm my friend had praised so highly. Any big decision was dependent on the ops manager. He was only available by appointment, this is construction not wall st. When I finally talked to him, he gave me a spiel about how they were a micro firm, this was done to increase their bandwidth due to demand, and since mine was a simple project a pm could not be provided. I felt insulated, given it was not a simple project budget. If they are so busy, they should hire more project managers. In the end, the project turned out fine, but they should improve their customer service, and properly hire, if they hope to be a luxury contractor.
