“The house had four bedrooms but only one shower upstairs. With teenagers, that was becoming a daily problem. We took part of an oversized closet and used it to create another bathroom with a shower, then reworked the hallway bathroom so it wasn’t so cramped. Not the glamorous type of remodel people post before-and-afters of, but probably the most useful thing we’ve done to this house.”

“My wife and I have a small kitchen and were always struggling with the space. It has a sudo dining space that is also the pathway to the garage and fireplace area. We originally had a dining table there, but it just felt awkward and we were always really tight on storage. We finally decided it was time to figure out the space. We knew we wanted an island, some additional overhead cabinets, and a dry bar. Initially, we brought our plans to Home Depot to see if it was possible, but ultimately were not able to find anything that would match our existing cabinet color. We loved our cabinets and didn't see the point in replacing or painting them to match new ones. Home Depot was able to confirm the space for us and make some plans, but they did charge a one-time fee to get the process started. If we continued with them, that fee would have gone to paying for the cabinets but if you're stubborn like us then you're SOL.
Anyway, we eventually stumbled upon Elegant Stone & Cabinets. They have great reviews and we see something on their website that looks like it might be close to what we are looking for. They responded quickly to our email to let us know that they had that cabinet in their show room and were welcome to come take a look. We knew it would probably be a long shot and Elegant Stone even told us it wasn't an exact match, but we took one of our cabinet doors off, drove it over and sure enough it was not exact, but it was pretty darn close, actually the closest we'd seen yet (and we'd seen a ton).
We ended up working with Brigitte and she helped us with all of the details. We were even able to match our granite and cabinet hardware. There was no fee for plans and the quote was comparable to the others we received for the project. Brigitte made sure to cover everything, like how the cabinets would look at different dimensions, molding or flush mount, hardware suggestions, countertop overhang supports, outlet locations, existing trim - If you can't tell by now, we were impressed all the way through the process. The installers were professional and efficient, quick to ask questions for our preference on placement and all the little install details. Everything came out great, quality materials and quality staff. And the most important part, my wife is happy :P”
“We have had the absolute pleasure working with Jessica Flemming. She helped pick out all of our kitchen bells and whistles like the backsplash, the faucet and the beautiful lights that I call the earrings! She did such a good job we have just asked her to do our master bath as well!”
“Leila Douglah and her fabulous staff consistently exceeded our expectations during our 9-month remodel. With expertise, efficiency, and excellence they were able to create our vision for our retirement condo. We are thrilled we chose Douglah Design for our project.”
“I have nothing but Good to say about Mike and the crew at Concrete Exchange. Long story short, I had a sealer problem that Mike warrantied by sending out his crew to remove and re-seal a outdoor kitchen counter. Lot's of work, but now it looks great. I am very grateful and will continue to use the Concrete Exchange for any of my staining, sealing needs.”
“Carlos and Ivan did a beautiful job on our shower door! Not only were they early (I was expecting late based off of previous experiences with other companies) but they finished within an hour. They were friendly, professional and efficient. Thank you!”

“Thames Construction worked with Lynn at LP Designs on a recent bathroom remodel in San Ramon and appreciated her design vision on the project. Her drawings were clear and translated well into construction.
From a construction standpoint, working with a designer who brings a strong design aesthetic and thoughtful material selections is critical to a successful outcome, and Lynn delivered a well-executed design.
We’d be happy to collaborate again and would recommend LP Designs to anyone looking for a designer with a refined eye for finishes and overall design.”
“The most honest and amazing service. Fair priced and good quality work. They did a bathroom for me, floors, redecorating and kitchen work. Can handle and level of job. Totally satisfied and no hassle. Turn up as they promise. Will definitely use again.”
“We had an outstanding experience with Palazzo Kitchens and Baths on our master bathroom remodel. We wanted to completely renovate and modernize the space, including reworking the layout, but weren't sure what was possible. Palazzo's team made the entire process seamless and stress-free, from design and material selection to planning and construction.
Rebeca, our designer, was professional, knowledgeable, and detail-oriented. What impressed us most was her understanding of both design and construction. Because our project involved moving plumbing and walls, she ensured every design decision was both beautiful and practical. She thoughtfully guided us toward a timeless design, reviewed the estimate thoroughly upfront to set clear expectations, and remained involved throughout the project.
Arturo, our project manager, was wonderful to work with. He was experienced, dependable, and easy to talk to. It was obvious he genuinely cared about doing the job right. He kept the project organized and on schedule, stopped by several times a week to check on the progress, and was always available whenever we had questions. His leadership kept the project running smoothly, and we always felt confident that the project was in good hands.
The construction team - Rolando, Rodolfo, Cesar, Freddo, and Jorge - was fantastic to work with. They were always punctual, respectful, highly skilled, and a pleasure to have in our home. They kept the workspace clean and organized every day, and the quality of their work was excellent. Rolando and Rodolfo handled the demolition professionally, Cesar kept the project running smoothly and paid close attention to every detail, Freddo did a great job with framing, molding, and painting, and Jorge's beautiful tile work truly elevated the finished bathroom. Remodeling can be stressful, but this project never felt chaotic. Everything stayed organized, and we always knew what was happening.
The finished bathroom is beautiful, functional, and turned out even better than we had hoped. The project was completed on time and within budget. Throughout the process, it was clear that Palazzo is a well-run company that takes pride in the quality of its work and cares about its customers. We wouldn't hesitate to work with them again and would confidently recommend them to our friends and family.”
“Lisa, at Premier kitchens is fantastic she will help you find the perfect design for your kitchen. They have a really good selection of cabinets to choose from .The team at Premier Kitchen is Top notch ? I highly recommend Premier Kitchens”
“My bathroom was just finished and I could not be any happier....... Way beyond expectations....... From my first visit to the showroom, meeting Brittany and how she actually showed interest and listened to what I liked and wanted to helping me pick out the material and style and explain the differences between regular cultured marble and granite cultured marble to the size of the shower pan .......... Then, how it would all be done and the cost, itemized line by line.............Dan, the man who did the work,,, No words can describe his attention to detail and the incredible job he did and the care he showed and always asking me if I was happy with what was being done........... I was thrilled........ Brittany and Dan thank you so much ......... Personally, after thinking about doing my bathroom for over 15 years, I am so glad I wanted until I found someone I could trust, a fair price and not worry about the quality of the workmanship. I looked at tile, marble, quartz you name it but cultured marble is the easiest to care for, less expensive to install and looks amazing.............I can not say enough but if you are looking to redo your bathroom, you owe it to yourself to at least go out to this business and see for yourself before you decide............finished Aug, 5, 2022.DaveDave”
“Craig at Distinctive Cabinetry was a pleasure to work with. He advised me every step of the way from the floor up. From the cabinets, handles, light fixtures, appliances, the back splash, the colors , and the hood ect. He gave me a beautiful kitchen that not only looks good but is also very functional. He even designed the chair, railing around the windows in the kitchen. He will walk you through every step making it an easy process.”
“When I decided to get new kitchen countertops, I got a estimates for both the cost and time involved. As well as promising quick turnaround time (one day), Ran Valdez Stone gave me the lowest price. The workers were prompt, skilled, and tidy. I'm delighted with the result. If I could have given the company ten stars, I would have.”
“I recently updated our laundry room. One of the final touches was a quartz countertop for the sink cabinet. As the cabinet was only 42" my original plan was to have them use a leftover piece of quartz to fabricate the top to my measurements and install it myself. Eva was very helpful when I stopped by the showroom on two occasions. When the room was ready for the countertop I realized it would be much better to just buy a whole piece and let JQ do the measure and install. I am happy that I did! I had them use some of the leftover for a top on a wire shelving unit. The installer who came out did a stellar job. Very happy! IN 2018 JQ supplied cabinets and installed the countertops for a kitchen update that I did before selling my home. They are still doing quality work at affordable prices.”
“We recently sourced new wood flooring for our Walnut Creek home from Prosource which was recommended by our designer.
We had outstanding customer services from floor selection, purchase, final delivery to care/maintenance guide from Prosource team. Jimmy who helped us with our purchase was knowledgeable and understood our needs very well including price matching. His team also accommodated us to hold the new floor materials in their warehouse a more than a month due to our home renovation timelines. Dana was super helpful and offered her assistance/guidance where needed. All the staff at the Prosource office are very professional and care about their customers' need.
Overall, we are very pleased with our new wood flooring. We've received high quality flooring from Prosource with their expert guidance and customer support.
I would highly recommend Prosource to anyone considering floor replacement projects with quality products and on time delivery.”
“Chris and the whole team at Bay Area Tile & Hardwood are fantastic! I’m working on my third project with the team now. They are so supportive, responsive and knowledgeable. Can’t recommend them enough!”
“I found the expertise and professionalism of Kitchens of Diablo made my customized kitchen remodel go smoothly. The original kitchen from 1986 was transformed into a beautifully functional and updated one, and it will take us into the next 25 years. All communication between me and the kitchen designer, owner/contractor (Shawn Lober Construction) and his crew was open and they responded to my emails/texts promptly. The crew cleaned up daily and they were respectful of our schedule since we lived in the house during the remodel. We have recommended Kitchens of Diablo to our neighbors and friends. Our remodel was completed in 3 months in 2025, just in time for the holiday's!”

“Every aspect of our experience working over two years with Kim and her team to renovate our home was stellar. Our home is beautiful thanks to Kim’s sense of style, her vision, her attention to every part of the process and most, to her accessibility and keen listening.”
“I'd give her more stars I I could. Wendy and her entire team are Great. She gives you a full set of blue print plans that you can hand over to any contractor. She thinks of EVERY little detail and her measurements are perfect. She knows what's in and what's not, and he knows how to maximize space. We wanted an island and I thought it could be squeezed into the kitchen. After review the space, we realized it just wasn't possible. I felt much better going through the measurements to understand that! It showed me that she really knows how to build spaces, that work! Her team is fabulous and they are very helpful and responsive. Can't say enough about her and the team. I would recommend them to anyone, and I've referred many already. We would use her for any project going forward. She's busy and it takes a while to get on her schedule but it's worth it! Being busy shows that she's good!”
“Kelly and Nina are simply fabulous individuals that I love to work with. Their design expertise and tenure in the industry made us so at ease with the entire process of remodeling our home. I couldn’t imagine a better outcome than what we were able to create together. I was apprehensive initially to take on such a significant home improvement project, but working with them made this experience one that I will always be happy to look back on. Their level of design acumen in alignment with our budget created a dream house remodel. Thank you, Kelly and Nina for all of your help in making our home a place we love to return to day after day in the years to come!”
“I had my new Bryant A/C system installed by Otter HVAC in May 2025, and the whole experience was amazing. The team was professional, punctual, and very knowledgeable. They completed the installation quickly and neatly, connected everything perfectly, and made sure the system was running smoothly before leaving.
The equipment was supplied through Slakey Brothers, and the quality is excellent. Since the installation, the A/C has been working flawlessly and keeping my home perfectly cool.
If you’re in Concord and need reliable and skilled HVAC professionals, I highly recommend Otter HVAC. They truly care about quality and customer satisfaction. I wish I could give more than just 5 stars!!!”

“I recently had the pleasure of working with Jerald Miller at Jack London Kitchen and Bath Store, and I couldn’t be more impressed! From the moment I walked in, they greeted me with a warm smile and a wealth of knowledge about kitchen and bath designs. He took the time to understand my vision, offered creative suggestions, and guided me through every step of the process with patience and professionalism.
Not only did Jerald make excellent product recommendations based on my style and budget, but he also went above and beyond to ensure I felt confident in my choices. His attention to detail, friendly demeanor, and genuine passion for helping customers truly set him apart.
When I realized there was a missing part for my faucet, he immediately took action, diligently working to get the replacement part sent as quickly as possible. His commitment to customer satisfaction is truly unmatched!
If you’re looking for top-notch service and someone who truly cares about your satisfaction, I highly recommend Jerald Miller at Jack London kitchen and Bath in Walnut Creek.”
“So glad we saw Matt at Monark Appliance to help us with our purchase. He took his time with us and answered all our questions. We look forward to cooking and entertaining in our new kitchen. Highly recommend!”
“I had Cascade Cabinets make all of the cabinets for my kitchen remodel and a huge corner cabinet for my family room. That was 17 years ago and my cabinets still look incredible. Great quality and craftsmanship. I much prefer custom cabinets over ready made. No fillers and a exact fit. The owner at that time was Bob. ( I'm not sure if he's still the owner)”

“I have used several contractors over the years, some very good and some not so good. The folks at Insight Glass are among the best I have ever dealt with. I had 2 companies give bids for my shower wall glass. One measured the dimensions and assumed the walls were square. The person from Insight Glass came with levels and graduated shims to get the exact dimensions. The person from Insight Glass also knew the code relative to the required number of brackets and the thickness of glass needed for my dimensions. The order went in and was ready in just one week. The installer was a top notch, class act. The mats he put down to protect the area were clean. You probably never thought about this, but it is significant. No tools were placed anywhere other than where mats were placed. The glass was set and adjusted for exact placement. Holes were drilled through the quartz perfectly for the brackets and not a speck of dust was left for me to clean up. It takes a special talent to make a perfect bead of caulking around the glass and wall. This installer had special talent. He cleaned the glass, reviewed maintenance procedures and left the area spotless. He took about 90 minutes and was never in a rush, making sure every step was done properly. Thank you, Insight Glass!!”
“Dropped into Porcelanaso in a panic this afternoon. Needed some emergency layout advice for a project. Rita was amazing. So patient and calmly walked us through our options and we came out with a plan. She was fantastic. Thanks for saving the day.”
“Beyond excellent selection, I’ve found the staff to be exceptionally friendly and helpful. We’ve shopped tile, cabinets, and flooring and always felt welcome. Don L. in particular was able to walk me through the details of what I needed while treating me like an expert. Definitely our go-to store for home improvement.”
