Home Quality Remodeling

just need a plumber and electrician, not a full service contractor

I hired HQR for a small-ish job. They did a pretty good job overall, although there were a few instances where the plans weren't followed very closely, and we had to backtrack and redo some things to make it fit. (There was also an incident with a fire sprinkler discharging, which may or may not have been related to the work.)

Avi is very responsive as a project manager and great with customer service and communication. I think there's a bit to be desired though in terms of attention to detail and organization.

But overall I'm pretty pleased with the end result!

Home Quality Remodeling did amazing job with my bathroom. I was very lucky to have Amir as my project manager for the job. Highly recommended them!

Highest marks for HQR.

I contacted Rafi (Project Manager) after a disastrous experience with another contractor, who left us with a brand-new, leaking shower they refused to fix. Folks, very few contractors will step in and fix someone else's mess: it's just too much of a headache. But Rafi agreed to help us, thank goodness. He was delightful to work with and actually became a friend in the process. Having your house ripped up months after you've just completed a job is pretty traumatic: Rafi understood this and was really patient with our anxiety and all our questions. After he removed the faulty shower, he insisted that we test for mold to be thorough. I really didn't think this would be a problem after just a few months of leaking, but lo and behold, he was right. We had mold. Rafi helped us get it remediated quickly and then rebuilt our bathroom. He gave me a lot of good design advice in the process which the other contractor never bothered to do. Rafi is committed every step of the way to getting the job done RIGHT.

We are not just thankful for the good job HQR did, we are indebted to Rafi for taking on this very challenging project and making us smile at a really difficult time. Thank you HQR!

Shelly helped me find quality subcontractors right when I needed them most for a remodel project. She has an extensive construction background that will navigate the home owner through any challenge. Most importantly she loves to have fun throughout the process!

My husband and I were forced into an unexpected restoration on our home - due to a burst water pipe under the slab floor.

We had 3 companies bidding for the job, including Avi Edri a Project Manager from Home Quality Remodeling.

Right from the start, we knew we wanted to work with Avi and his team. He was very knowledgeable, confident and reassuring. Avi's communication skills throughout the whole process were exceptional. He encourages clients to reach out to him with any concerns or questions. Even when we could not immediately contact him he would manage to respond within 5 to 10 minutes. He's incredibly driven and offered multiple solutions to any problems or concerns we came across. He's flexible and detail-oriented. Avi had our backs every step of the way. We felt like Avi cared about our project as if it was his own property. He was able to finish the project one day before he told us it would be complete.

The HQR construction team lead by Miguel made what was once a mess beautiful again. Seamless drywall repair, gorgeous flooring, and paint were all on point and done with care. Simply put Avi and the crew at HQR care. If the customer is not happy, they are not happy. Avi is not only an exceptional Project Manager but he's also an incredible human being. Highly recommended! Thank you, Avi and team, at Home Quality Remodeling!

My wife and I couldn't be happier with our choice of HQR for our remodeling project. (We are currently towards the end of the planning process and have just pulled permits.) Our project manager, Eddie Stolik, has been simply outstanding. Truly, it has taken us 4 years of talking to various contractors, architects, and designers before we found the confidence to move ahead after meeting with Eddie. He is a wellspring of ideas and solutions as well as super-responsive in the many communications that go into planning a project such as ours. Eddie has also brought with him and managed so adeptly a great team of talented individuals.

Ron and crew did a complete remodel of my house that might as well be a new build. They built an 800+ sq ft addition in the back of the house while my family and I lived in the existing house. When they finished the addition, my family (wife, 4-year-old and 1-year-old) moved into the addition and Ron's crew completely demoed the interior walls of the existing house and built new rooms. They put on a new roof, new exterior, new floors, new everything. Not only did they do a fantastic job, but they finished 3 months ahead of schedule! A lot of things could have gone horribly wrong living in a house with a young family while construction was going on, but Ron's team handled every issue with care and consideration. I highly recommend Home Quality Remodeling for any project, large or small! We couldn't be happier with our new home.

I couldn't come to an agreement with Home Quality Remodeling. Nonetheless, I thought that they conducted themselves professionally and would be easy to deal with.

Terrific job by Fadil and Ben on our just completed remodel of two bathrooms and a bunch of tile flooring. Ron Poliker orchestrated a great crew, mostly Fadil and Ben, for the project and the results and the manner of work in our home could not have been better! We had to put the project on hold for four weeks because the planned tile didn't work out and the replacement had to be manufactured in Africa, but the crew was flexible and responsive while some might have become frustrated. Fadil and Ben were on time every day, very polite and communicative about the process, and basically wonderful to have on our project.

Working with Home Quality Remodeling was an easy experience for our master bathroom, all thing considered (we had major construction going on in our BEDROOM). Ronnie is an amazing contractor he took all our worries away. He was able to see my vision. I feel like he ended every conversation with “no worries”. Ronnie has an amazing work ethic, he was in my home checking work with every set till the very end. He follows through on his work, keeps you up-to-date on what is going on, answers phone calls or text, and will always answer questions in an honest way. The men Ronnie sent to my home were easy to work with and hard workers. I was very impressed with is tile guy, Juan, he did amazing work in my bathroom. I wouldn’t hesitate to call Ronnie again if I need to do anymore renovations in my home.

We didn’t end up selecting them for our project but they are very professional and organized. They are definitely worth contacting to get a bid for your project.

Our guest bathroom was just remodeled and we're elated with the result! We chose HQR based on reviews and their bid was not the highest that we got. Ronnie Ilan, our project manager, was the greatest. He recommended suppliers where we found exactly what we were looking for (we had looked around for tile and a vanity previously and it was overwhelming)! During construction, he constantly kept us updated and quickly responded to our needs. He truly wanted us to be happy with our new bathroom.

Although there were delays due to delivery of tile, the bathroom was completed ahead of schedule. At times there were 3 workers on site and they were polite, neat, and their work professional. The herringbone tile work in the shower is spot-on.

We were fortunate to discover HQR and are looking forward to working with Ronnie again. Highly recommend!

The remodel of our 1950’s era home remodel was just completed and we could not be happier with the result and experience working with HQR/Ron.

The experience Ron brought to the project, his overwhelming positive attitude, availability and proactive response to issues that came up (as with any project) were attributes that made the difference in our remodel. One of the attributes we came to value was Ron’s approach to mid-project plan changes; they were handled with minimal, or no impact to the process or schedule. His constant comment was that “at the end of the day, he wanted us to be happy with the remodel result and experience with HQR”, we came to realize was sincere and his actions mirrored that commitment.

Communication, work quality, schedule, professionalism and obviously cost were all important factors in our initial search for our remodel project. Fortunately for us all our criteria were met or exceeded by HQR.

Finally, we are way beyond pleased with the results of our remodel! Our old house looks amazing now! The difference for us is just overwhelming! Thank you HQR!!

On_schedule

We remodeled a master and guest bath, installed new wood floors and windows among other fixes that our house needed. We love the remodel - the place looks so new and clean. I'd highly recommend Home Quality Remodeling. Our Project Manager, Rafael Levi, was excellent. From the first meeting, he was really good at listening and coming up with a plan to meet our needs for the remodel. During the project, Rafael kept things moving in the right direction and had the perfect amount of communication without being too overbearing. We always knew the status of the project and Rafael ensured that things were done to our satisfaction. He went the extra mile at the end to make sure the last items were addressed appropriately.

I searched for several remodeling companies in the East Bay and Home Quality Remodeling has the best quality and reasonable price. I worked with Ronnie llan and he was amazing at laying out the project scope, responsive to our every small and large details, and follow thru. I will definitely use these pros again.

Ron did a big renovation work in my condo in Emeryville, and I have nothing but praise to give him for his amazing work.

In the beginning finding a contractor was definitely not an easy task, many come and tell you stories, or give you insanely expensive quotes. It's very hard to find someone authentic, with good prices, and especially someone trustworthy.

I was lucky enough to find Ron in the last second before moving states, and he was able to complete my entire renovation work from start to finish whilst I was completely away. He sent me updates and photos, and was super diligent and worked hard to make sure I'm 100% satisfied.

My renovation included adding an additional room, breaking load bearing walls, replacing the entire kitchen and all this while getting city approvals and HOA approvals.

Without Ron I wouldn't of been able to get my condo looking as amazing as it is today. I wholeheartedly recommend Ron, and will continue to use his expertise for future renovations.

Wanted a bathroom remodel involving moving a wall to make the bathroom larger. Went with HQR although they were higher priced than the nearest quote, I liked that they were reviewed as being fast, high quality, and finishing the job. My experience differed from the reviews. The main issue was a lack of planning/measurements which led to a smaller vanity and many delays. The delays were caused by additional tile orders, work that needed to be redone (at HQR's expense), and my search for a smaller vanity. So why the 5 star review? First, the end result was high quality; second, the management team ensured I was happy with the work; and most importantly, I'm convinced that problems that I experienced have been addressed by the owner Ron Poliker and the Production Manager Shay so it won't happen again. The project manager on my job no longer works for HQR, detailed drawings are to be approved by the customer, Ron is implementing quality checklists, and he conducted project management training. So, in summary, HQR provided high quality, exceptional customer service and, most impressively, Ron went the extra mile to implement customer experience improvements.

I was looking for someone to give me a bid on remodeling both of our bathrooms. After getting bids from various contractors 7 to be exact. HQR had the most resonable and practical solution. we had to upgrade our electrical as well. Haim suggested to upgrade my electrical first and foremost before we started the bathroom remodels. We had a total of 7 circuits for the whole house. Upgrading main electrical panel and new sub panel in the garage. Supply and replace existing electrical panel box with new 125 amp panel box to include breaker and wire organization. Installed new sub-panel 16/32 in the garage. They were expeditious with getting the proper permits from the city of Piitsburg Ca. and working with PG&E to get a work crew in a timely manner. Definitely 5 stars for HQR. Next the guest bathroom with a shower stall.

It was very pleasant however the original estimate we discussed was more than tripled (for architect and engineer fees along) so I could not afford to work with them on my project in the end.

This bid is too expensive.

I am very happy with the bathroom remodel completed by Home Quality Remodeling.
Haim Zonenhin, the Project Manager, assisted me from the beginning of the project. With his business connections and his good taste he helped me to pick out some beautiful finish products!
Jeff Anderson, the Contractor, completed the project from demo to finish tile.
He is very competent in all phases of remodeling and the bathroom looks beautiful!
Two employees of HQR installed the barn door. It came unpainted but they said don't worry we'll paint it for you. They did a great job and even installed the handles!
I would highly recommend Home Quality Remodeling for any home remodeling project!

If you want budget overruns and missing deadlines, HQR is not for you. With our multi-room remodel they finished right on budget (absorbed some extra costs to keep the numbers) and a full week before the initial estimated finish date. Their high ratings are well deserved. Aharon (their project manager) was great throughout our project. Detail oriented proactive problem solvers, great crew members. Very satisfied with the experience, will work with them again.

Good_communication

After getting 5 other bids, Home Quality Remodeling came in with a good price and a great schedule for my small-ish job. When doing the work, they were communicative and also adapted to dry rot that was worse than expected. They had no problems getting their work approved twice by the City of Berkeley. It was such a nice experience that I will ask them to bid on some of the projects I have coming up.

Also, I appreciated the project manager that I worked with: Assi Zvik. He was a good mix of experienced and practical which worked well for my job that had a tight deadline.

Haim and Home Quality Remodeling did a great job on my new roof; they were informative and prompt in communication throughout the project. When they encountered some issues with the gutter installation that required a change in plans and custom gutter fabrication and a bit of a delay, they were communicative and completed the project at the original agreed upon price.

From start to finish, Haim and his crew, Greg & Neil, were exceptional. They were very focused on the result I was looking for and freely made suggestions that resulted in a completed project that exceeded my expectations. Their attention to detail was amazing, they were truly artisans when it came to the tile work and design. With all the projects Haim had going, he never lost sight of my little bathroom remodel and was regularly on site monitoring the progress and quality of the work. The site was always protected and cleaned up daily. I could not have asked for a better partner or outcome. Haim and his guys are the best.

I think our initial talk was great.
Unfortunately, took nearly 3 weeks for a ball park estimate, not even a full proposal.
Also was very expensive compared to the other people I have talked to; was over average cost by $50k.

Just had HQR do a full kitchen remodel a few months back. This kitchen was nearly 100 years old. They got it back into tip top shape and were on call and ready to handle any issues that came up after. Highly recommend.

Quality Home Remodeling has done several projects for my father over the years on his house in Alameda. Based on his recommendation I have had them do work on my home too. I highly recommend the company.

Haim is an experienced general contractor and up on all the codes and permit process. He can even help with getting drawinga done. Haim can really figure out the best way to do the work and offered some great ideas that saved us a lot of money. His crew did a lot of protection work to keep other areas clean and protected while working. His workers were all friendly, polite and helpful.

I plan to call him again soon for a project I have in mind.

It took a long time for my husband and I to decide on a general contractor. The fact is there are just so many of them in Bay area. We had to compare 5 different bidders and evaluated based on the price, service, past records, Contractor license Board history and their personality. It was quite daunting given we were doing the whole house including kitchen, master bath, hall way bath and guest bath. We decided to pick Ron and HQR because we feel very confident and comfortable in his approach and he is always on time and fast to respond. He isn't the cheapest but his quote is very reasonable. You just need to work with him on your demands and budget.

Once the project started after July 4th weekend, everything flew fast. He has reliable crew that works in the house and he checks the progress a few times a week. Whenever we have questions or concerns, he is always able to solve the problem and provide a solution. Our project just wrapped up in the beginning of September and it came out beautifully. Ron and his team really delivered over expectations! They strive to solve problems, exceeded expectations and always looked out for the customers!

I will definitely recommend Ron and HQR to be your next contractor.

We had recently moved to the East Bay from out of state. The home we had purchased was outdated and in need of kitchen and bathroom remodeling. After several contracting bids and a long process, we decided that Quality Home Remodeling was by far the most qualified. They took time to really understand what we wanted our home to look like with the new additions. They made sure all their work added to the value and the equity in our home. We did eventually out grow that home. Our remodel increased the selling price by 30%! Thank you Quality Home Remodeling!

My bathroom was in total disrepair. I was told it would take 1 month and $20,000 to make it usable and the way I had envisioned it. I didn't know until speaking to Ron that the previous company I almost hired was overcharging by 75%! Ron was able to do the work for under $7500 and it only took 10 days. He has a vast knowledge of permits from the city, and called the right people to work on this (Plummer and electrician) he not only earned my trust but he saved be $12,500!!

Thank you for taking the time to stop by and for preparing the proposal. Unfortunately this over my budget.
Thanks again,
Doaa

Couldn't be happier!
I went to Home Quality Remodeling because a friend referred me and they helped me from the moment I contacted. Ron, the Project manager and everyone in the company were so efficient and helped me get exactly what I wanted, and more! I now have a beautiful new kitchen and a happy family. Great people to work with, quality and professional services. Would definitely recommend to anyone.

We had Ahron "Ron" Poliker as our Project Manager and his team that came to do our 800 sq. ft addition and remodel were A+++++ Ron kept everything organized, well-written out plan and stages, specific budget goals outlined and flexible with changes and timing. His team came everyday, on time, were quiet and respectful, cleaned up at the end of the day so we wouldn't have to deal with any messes while we lived in the house being remodeled. They took our cares and concerns seriously and left us with a beautiful home with quality workmanship and they also finished earlier than our timeline. If I had to do it all over again, I would, as I felt that we did not have a negative experience like other friends of ours had with their contractors. We highly recommend Ron and his crew! This is a team that delivers what they say. On Time. On Budget. And honest! (That is hard to find these days!)

I hired Home Quality Remodel to update my bathroom. Like everyone else , I was nervous about the process.. Ron was the Project Manager and he was very helpful, accommodating and listened to my concerns. The update went very smoothly! I was so happy with the quality of not only the materials, but the craftsmanship, as well!! Great job, Thank you!!

Ron is a true professional. I would recommend him and his team for any project. They built us a 900 sq ft addition and then remodeled the rest of our home. Everything is new except the original four walls of the house. They basically built us a brand new home and they did so 3 months ahead of schedule. We couldn't be happier.
