Jorge and his team did an amazing job fixing a significant ceiling leak coming from our deck! He was very flexible with his schedule and was easy to work with. Jorge is very personable and always available. I highly recommend him for any general contracting work for your house!

Jorge has worked on a couple of projects for us so far, including installing a range hood in our kitchen, updating some gas lines, and installing bollards. He’s really helpful, friendly, easy to communicate and schedule with and does great quality work. I’ll definitely be calling him again!

Jorge supervised our complete kitchen remodel over the summer of 2025. I wanted to hire him for this job because he was so detail oriented, timely and reliable when he installed new windows for us. I was not disappointed in the least! Jorge is meticulous about getting every last detail right.
