"Really happy about my bathroom renovation. Working with these guys was great! Their project manager, Zamir was transparent to me and my family about prices and costs, and he also brings a creative edge to his work. The rest of the team are just as great, they all have great humor, and really get to job done. Jose on the tiles in particular really stood out. Overall very happy with the work, idea came to life!"

"Yes. The remodeler was on time, worked efficiently, cleaned up after himself, and because Eric was experienced in remodeling, he knew exactly what to do so everything went smoothly. Thank you. The bathroom looks great!"

"We hired Bayside Builders to do our home renovation project because we needed some help with designing and building a new outdoor fireplace. They were able to come up with an impressive design, plus they did such a great job with the construction! The pergolas they built for us are doing wonders in keeping the backyard cool- we love them! We would definitely recommend this company as they provide high quality service at very reasonable prices."

"hired Mark Brand Architecture to design an extensive remodel for my house in San Francisco. Mark and his staff gave me a lot of help during the remodel, especially when it came to working around or through problems that the old structure of the house posed including working with the project engineers. When I had to temporarily stop the remodel due to health issues, Mark and his team stepped in to make sure the job was kept on schedule. I feel they went above and beyond the call of duty with this project."

"Idan and the crew from Bear Remodeling were professional from the beginning to the end of the project. Idan communicated constantly and throughout the project and the results were better than expected in the full remodel of an upstairs bathroom. We will be using Bear Remodeling for our next project!"

"They deserve 10 stars. Simply the best in every way. The entire team - Marlyn, Gilbert and Gus - were lovely to work with, even under stress and pressure. Their professionalism was unwavering. We did a complex kitchen remodel with structural changes, and they were thorough and detailed in their work, provided white glove service and kept the project moving, staying ahead of schedule and within budget. They were transparent about change orders and did not nickel and dime us. Although they weren't the cheapest, they weren't the most expensive and were spot on on their original budget and quote. Worth every penny. Communications was terrific, service was 5 star, and the craftsmanship is superb. I would work with them and recommend them at every opportunity."

HomeAdvisor makes it easy to connect with pros near you. You can read reviews, get quotes and book appointments all in one place.
Depending on the type of project, you may find subtle differences in the hiring process. Here’s a look at task-specific advice.
You can use HomeAdvisor to help evaluate a contractor’s qualifications. We put pros through a screening process, and award badges to high-performing contractors. You can find these badges on a pro’s HomeAdvisor profile, and sometimes, his or her website.
Your research doesn’t stop here. Once you’ve found a few prospective companies, make an call to ask a few questions about work history, licensure and more:
In most cases, the responses you get to these three questions will give you a very good idea of the right pro for your project. If you have more than one front-runner, these additional questions can help you narrow it down.
Any good contractor will answer these questions, and most will appreciate dealing with a client that takes such an active interest in finding good service. On the other hand, if a contractor gives you a hard time with these questions, you probably want to find someone else.
