Our designer recommended Udi to us as we researched general contractors, based on the quality of his finishes. As part... of our process, I also called 2 references, who further recommended Udi and his team. The scope of our project was significant:- Executing a full earthquake retrofit of the ground level of our house, including re-bolting to the foundation and introducing sheer walls- Introducing a new floorpan, including a new bathroom with a shower- Demoing and refacing our existing fireplace with tile, and ensuring it was properly set up for the gas insert we purchased- Bringing our den into this century by removing the wood panelling and replacing it with drywall. This part of the project also involved removing the built-in grill and wet bar and seamlessly repairing our wood floors.- Addressing many, many smaller updates and needed maintenance At every step, we found Udi a great partner in the remodel of our home. He was always responsive, flexible and clearly cared very much about the quality of the work that he and his team completed. Furthermore, we felt that he was always fair and reasonable with us, both in terms of the initial estimate and additions to scope we made throughout the project. Udi often made recommendations he felt would drive better results. For example, we had believed we needed to remove our 2-story fireplace for earthquake safety; after checking again with our engineer, he confirmed Udi's suggestion that it was not necessary, saving us that cost. As another example, we had planned to build a small closet in our crawlspace. However, Udi recommended that we actually use another location, which allowed us to have a much larger, nicer closet than we had initially anticipated, adding huge storage to our house. Lastly, we were reassured that Udi knew and followed the State of California's rules set by the Contractors State License Board.read more

Udi is great! I call him first whenever I need something done, and done right.

Recently, major damage occurred in the guest bathroom on main level so I needed to get it repair quickly before the... holiday. I met with Udi from Lion Group Construction to discuss remodeling of the guest bathroom. He was very prompted, efficient and hardworking throughout the project and we were able to get the renovation completed just in time for the holiday. I can't ask for a better outcome than this. 100% satisfied.read more

I've done numerous hours on researching and interviewing many contractors because it was very important to me to find... the "Right Contractor" since I was going to trust them with my house for some time. It was a MASSIVE WHOLE HOUSE Project involving installation of over 20+ recessed lightings, removal of popcorn ceiling, whole new painting and wood flooring for living room, family, room, kitchen remodel including cabinets, sink etc, installing new patio door and modifying/painting existing brick fireplace (CHECK OUT THE PICS).I'd give 5000000** STARS if I could!!! I'm so HAPPY and GRATEFUL to have Udi as my contractor for many reasons but there are 3 main reasons why I think he is THE BEST: (1) COMMUNICATION: communication is the very important key for everything and Udi was THE BEST PERSON when it comes to communication. I was able to get a quick response from Udi about anything (progress, colors, materials, designs etc) via text messages, phone call, photos with comments or even Videos!!! Since this was my first renovation, I had many questions about the project. When I asked for his expertise, Udi was there to give me professional advices and recommendations. To be honest, I felt bad for asking him 1000s questions but he always answered them quickly without any irritations 🙂 For example, I was going to add chandelier on high vaulted ceiling but Udi recommended adding 6 recessed light (dimmable) instead--THE BEST IDEA EVER!!! (after my decision to hire him, of course 🙂 (2) WORK ETHIC/PUNCTUALITY: Udi has been working with his team of employees for many years--very important factor for me since they're NOT just temporarily-hired workers for short-term (a big no-no for me). His team of experts (painters, cabinet fabricators, repair guys etc) all enjoyed working on this project and they had very good work ethics. All the guys always arrived on time to work and even worked late hours to finish up the project if needed. Even when I stopped by to check on things, they were more than happy to answer my questions and kept me updated on what's going on. (3) FLEXIBILITY: Before starting the house renovation, Udi gave me a very realistic scopes of project in order with price for each step (**HUGE PLUS since you PAY what you AGREE ON--NO HIDDEN FEE). Udi and his team executed each step superbly within reasonable time. Even when I added some additional projects (painting etc) last minute, he was very professional about it and was able to accommodate my requests flawlessly. We all know renovation can be very stressful. Before I met Udi, I heard so many horrible stories about contractors being shady and untrustworthy. Not only Udi was able to make my dream-home come true with his great workmanship, but he also gave me peace of mind throughout this rather stressful process with his professionalism and expertise. Knowing that I was in great hands made this experience very pleasant and the renovation result was astonishing! (check out the Before/After Photos!) Any contractor can fix the house the way you want but that does NOT guarantee the quality of work or more importantly, peace of mind. I sincerely appreciate Udi and his team for their great work and I would definitely recommend Udi for anyone!read more

I loved working with Udi. I'm very satisfied with his workmanship. He's professional, efficient, and well-organized. He... sticks to the schedule, communicates well with others on the team as well as with me, and has a skilled crew. He pays attention to the details and is good at solving problems that pop up and is generous and fair with his time. I would strongly recommend Udi for any home project.read more

Udi and his crew were a pleasure to work with. They did excellent work and Udi had great design ideas for our small... space. Udi and his team remodeled our bath, installed a new roof, and built us a new front porch. I plan on having him come back for more extensive projects in the future!read more

Udi and his crew were professional and their workmanship is fantastic. They did a lot of work on my house and yard.... They installed new drainage, upgrades in the crawl space, a new garage door, a new wood pool deck, new deck lighting, interior and exterior electrical work including electrical panels, lighting fixtures and fans, repair on exposed wood beams and interior patching and painting. Udi will make sure the job is done promptly and professionally. I am planning to have them come back to help me with additional projects.read more
