Overall, we're very pleased with the high quality of service and level of professionalism provided by Home Front Build. We spent the last 2 years building out a ~300 sq ft addition to our home consisting of adding new foundation, plumbing, HVAC, and more. Home Front was always willing and flexible to make modifications along the way to the design or even add additional services (i.e. retaining wall, re-stucco the house). Goli did a stellar job at the design work for the project and her experience really shined as she was able to predict and navigate several situations that we would have not known any better to consider. Eduardo was our on-site general contractor and responsible for working with all the 3rd parties to get work done on time and ensure our expectations were met at the end of each segment. My only point of frustration has been that 90% of the project moved very quickly and progress has been made every single day, however, the last 10% of the project has taken months to finalize. While these items are small it can be a bit exhausting to keep tabs on the last final pieces and we're ready to start enjoying the work done and have the project complete. I highly recommend Home Front Build to anyone and know you will get a very high quality level or work, communication, and team!

Home Front Build understood this project right off. You wont be disappointed.
I have lived in a very unique, wooden, California craftsman home for the past 43 years. It is a great home with some wonderful, interesting history, but in need of a little care. Rebuilding an entire driveway portico and fence, refurbishing the front porch deck, replacing shingled siding etc, as well as a complete four color paint job.
I interviewed several builders for this project. Some were very cavalier and cheap sure no problem! Some were scared wow, theres lots of wood!! but Steve and Sam got it immediately.
From top to bottom the whole team was fantastic. Steve and Sam understood and appreciated what the house was and what it needed, helping me make informed decisions throughout the whole project. Juan and the entire on site team were great. Showed up everyday and most importantly left the job site clean and tidy, very much appreciated and a sign of conscientious workmanship. On the operations side, Miguel and Anthony kept me updated on the costs, all paperwork etc. All a pleasure to work with.
I am so pleased to have found a terrific group of craftsmen and cannot recommend them highly enough.

We recently completed two bathrooms with Home Front Build, a guest bathroom and a bathroom shared by our three daughters.
Originally the cost of the remodel was a big deterrent. Its hard to believe the cost is so high these days. With that said, we finally decided to take the plunge and the biggest reason was probably our pleasurable experience working thus far with Goli. She has a wonderful, cheerful attitude and she knows her stuff.
A big plus for the whole company was their attention to detail. Both Goli and Adriana were exceptional to work with. While some of their sub contractors were less than stellar, they made sure to correct any mistakes until we were happy. Working with a reputable company ensured that the work was done in a timely manner. I appreciate that both Goli and Adriana seemed to genuinely care about our project and wanted the best outcome possible.

Home Front restored our Victorian house and its stone walls. They were able to use historic salvage lumber to rebuild our window sashes, they used original style paint in the original colors and applied it with a brush (so it looks completely original). They built a cleverly hidden modern foundation and were able to leave our historic stone foundation intact for visual purposes. They matched stucco and stone finishes inside and outside the house perfectly. Every person on the crew was a pleasure to work with and to have around. And they had creative ideas to implement what we proposed and stay on budget. I very highly recommend them. Services: Stone, brick, & stucco design, Interior painting, Millwork design

I worked with Home Front on project involving a major kitchen and master bath remodel in my 90-year old Spanish style home. The quality of the existing construction was top notch, and I wanted to maintain that standard, as well as to maintain certain existing features within the context of the update/remodel. My project was interrupted, right before the intended start date, by the advent of the pandemic. During that 2-year delay period, as I rethought certain aspects of the original design, the Home Front team was patient, respectful of, and creative in addressing my evolving thoughts and wishes.
Because I was planning to - and did - live in the house throughout the remodel, it was critical to me that schedules be adhered to, deadlines honored, and spaces kept clean. I was fully satisfied in all these regards.
One of the things that makes Home Front unique, and one of the main reasons I chose them, is the fact that they assign an onsite foreman to their projects to manage the daily work flow, coordinate subcontractors, etc. This was a critical element not only in obtaining permits and meeting deadlines, but also in making the whole process as low stress as possible. There was always one expert person I could go to with questions and concerns, who also was responsible for ensuring daily clean up, lock-up, addressing punch-list items, etc.
Home Front stands by the quality of their work and that of their various subcontractors. I never had a punch list item questioned, and even months after project completion was able to request small tweaks and fixes. The quality of workmanship and the level of both professionalism and courtesy were exactly what I was looking for, and I am delighted with the results.
