  The following are the 2 reviews I wrote for GBU on Yelp. Really annoyed the Yelp won't publish both of them. Instead, Yelp asked GBU to advertise on their site. I have several projects with GBU and want to provide a more thorough review of them. 12/08/2020: Our project has several phases involving 2 properties across the bay (complete renovation of an existing home to a smart home, attached garage addition, detached prefab ADU, 800sf basement ADU, complete renovation of a 2-story house). This is the first installment of my reviews of GBU. In short, GBU is superb. His crew does great work, professional and diligent. What makes this company special though is its owner Yosi. After working with him for 8 months, I can say Yosi is very quality minded. I feel that mind set comes from a place of caring and integrity. There were numerous examples where he went out his way to ascertain the subcontractor's skill levels and fair pricing. One example stuck in my mind that exemplifies Yosi's style/approach. Early on our project, we were evaluating foundation options. My neighbor came over and inquired about a job that needs cement work. Because it's a relatively small job, it's not cost efficient for them to hire a big load of cement. Yosi right away said he'd let them know when our foundation work is getting on its way. Then he could include their job without them having to buy the extra cement they don't need. There were several examples like that. We started out with a contract that just covers the first phase of the work. After 8 months, we have zero hesitation and feel fortunate that Yosi can schedule us in with the rest of the work. 6/15/2021: Now that our second project (basement ADU) is well on its way, I thought I give an updated review. Unlike the first project, where no one lived in the house being remodeled, I live upstairs while they work on the basement. Everyone comes at ~8am, work all day except 1 hour lunch, and leave ~4pm. Day after day. I can see progress every day. I'm not handy, let alone understanding construction. The work looks so neat and professional to me (see pictures). They pass inspections the first time, easily. Felipe, the project manager, keep things moving and work with me when there had to be interruptions (like turning off water). There were so many examples of their professionalism and quality workmanship, from the guys who dug holes for the deck to carpentry, framing, plumbing, and electrician. Everyone I interact with are professional, polite, and VERY COMPETENT. It was first time for me to live through a remodeling on-site. I'm amazed at the amount of skills and knowledge and hard work that go into building construction. Definitely gave me new perspective and appreciation for the home and all its functionalities I took for granted. I'm so grateful to have found Yosi to do our projects. There are many nightmare stories about remodeling. My experience with GBU has been really positive. He and his people are just top notch.

  I called GBU Construction Development to do a bathroom and kitchen remodeling that went spectacularly with my time line and budget. I was more than impressed by the outcome. My kitchen has more natural light with the larger windows and more space with the taller cabinets, so beautifully finished. I am so happy with the final price and a job well done.

  Could not recommend this business enough. Jordan is a rare gem. Professional, reliable and honest. He helped me navigate through my first (crazy) home renovation. After meeting with multiple contractors I finally found one that truly cared about meeting my needs and expectations and was honest with me throughout the whole process. He helped me save money along the way and everything came out ever better than I dreamed of. Definitely will call Jordan again for any future work.
