Innovative Construction Solutions
1.Custom Solar Panel Framework:
To overcome roofing constraints, LB Construction & Remodeling engineered a custom lightweight aluminum frame that supported the solar panels without compromising the roof’s structural integrity.
2. Ecological Impact Minimization:
Our team employed minimally invasive installation techniques to protect the local ecosystem, including scheduling work to avoid disrupting local wildlife patterns.
3. Aesthetic Harmony:
We selected low-profile solar panels and designed the layout to blend seamlessly with the existing architectural elements, satisfying both functional and visual requirements.

Client Testimonials for LB Construction
EXCELLENT Based on 27 reviews Saba Khalilnaji2024-10-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a great experience with LB. Tom and the crew did a fantastic job and went above and beyond to meet my expectations. The communication was on point, the job was quick and clean, and the price was right! Pamela Widmer2024-08-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am thrilled with my new walk-in shower bathroom. If you have lived in an older home you will understand why I hesitated to redo the bathroom. What would we find? Eventually I hired LB Construction and I must say I am happy I did. It was so nice to have the project coordinator, Eran, help me plan the layout and to give advice on items i needed.to buy. The walls were not straight, the door lopsided, old wiring, but this was expected. In the end the work was skillfully completed. It was a pleasure to have these workers in my home. Jorge, thank you for your commitment to finishing on time. Jenn Etheridge2024-07-09Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We just finished up a major home addition with LB Construction and I couldn't be happier. We removed a sunroom and added 600 sqft, including a few bedrooms and a bathroom, and I am so happy about our space! We first found Liran (David) and team through a neighbor, who had had LB completely renovate their entire home. They had been very pleased with the work and recommended him wholeheartedly, and let us tour their space. It was great for us to hear about their good experience, and gave us comfort as well that LB had experience with Eichlers, as we wanted to maintain the Eichler aesthetic with our addition. We did bid out to a few contractors who had been recommended to us, and LB was super responsive, had a reasonable quote for the project, and I appreciated that he understood what we were trying to do, and was able to give recommendations for some of the aspects that we hadn't made decisions about yet, or some things we hadn't even thought of (for example, in the bathroom, when they saw the tile we were choosing, they made suggestions around adding a shelf within the shower niche, the type of curb to use, options for the drain, etc). The price remained the same, there were no surprises -- and when we chose to add on replacing our HVAC with mini-splits throughout our house, David provided a clear quote and cost that remained the same even after it became a much more involved install process. Once the work started, David, Flavio, and team worked so quickly -- I was amazed by how fast demo went, how quickly so much of the work went. I remember one day when Flavio was asking my preference on trim, and once I made my decision, by the end of the day several rooms were already done exactly as I wanted! We had a bit of a delay in finishing, which was not their fault at all, because we needed to have PG&E do an electrical upgrade as part of the project, and PG&E quoted us 4-12 months to do it (!!!) but David kept on them, to try to get their part done as quickly as possible. I'm already thinking about our next project, re-leveling our living room and re-doing our kitchen, and will definitely plan to work with David and team at LB Construction again! Kate2024-06-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. LB construction is great. They built an interior staircase and also did a bathroom remodel for us. The quality of the work from Carlos and Miguel is top tier, and project manager Dan Peretz kept things running smoothly. They really work hard to ensure that at the end of the day the customer is happy with the work. Highly recommend for any construction project.

Tom Biel2024-05-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We used LB Construction and Remodeling to remodel our bathroom, rewire our house, install new flooring in 3 bedrooms, install a picture window and sliding door, garage entry door and a sink in our garage in our home in Pacifica. The work exceeded our expectations and and the cost fit neatly into our budget. Work was completed on time and cleaned to expectation. Eran the project manager was very professional, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. He helped with the design and helped us pick out needed materials, Actually meeting us at the store . His communication was excellent, responding within an hour of all our calls. ( and there were alot) The crew lead by Jesus were skilled workers who over came every challenge they were presented with to complete the project in a timely fashion. They were friendly, respectful and courteous. Answered all our questions and addressed all our concerns. I would use LB Construction and Remodeling again and recommend them to anyone looking for a remodel Cardum Penn2024-03-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently had the pleasure of working with Dan, the project manager, for our laminated bamboo and epoxy flooring project. Dan's professionalism, expertise, and dedication to excellence truly set him apart. From the initial consultation to the final installation, Dan exhibited unparalleled attention to detail and ensured that every aspect of the project was executed with precision. His communication skills were exceptional, providing regular updates and addressing any concerns promptly. Thanks to Dan's hard work and expertise, our flooring turned out even better than we imagined. I highly recommend LB Construction and Remodeling to anyone in need of construction services. Thank you, Dan, for your outstanding service! Ignasio Medrano2024-03-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After putting out 6 bids and being over charged by designs I didn't even use by a different company I finally found and chose LB Construction & Remodeling! David (Liran) was great to work with and from the get go was super transparent and honest in terms of the scope of the job as well as in pricing. No frills or upsells, just straight to the point in terms of my goals and desires for my bathroom remodel. Along the way he was super communicative and very accommodating, as several times I requested some changes be made. The original schedule was 4-6 weeks and we went 7 only because of delays for some materials and by no fault of David or the crew. Speaking of the crew....Carlos and Moises were awesome and from the beginning were super efficient in demolition right up to the end with all the final touches. They were super awesome to work with and the pride in their work showed with the final result. I am VERY pleased I chose LB Construction and will choose them again for future projects I have in mind. I am also very pleased with the final result of my new expanded bathroom! It looks great! Suzanne Nero2024-02-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is a terrific company! We have used David to do multiple different projects on our house from large projects (a complete demo and remodel of our bathroom), to house painting, window installation and our latest project-- redoing our driveway with stamped concrete. All have been terrific which is why we keep coming back. David always finishes his projects on time and on budget. He is easy to get a hold of even on the weekends and keeps you in touch on the progress of the project. David has great vision and provides helpful suggestions to make sure the projects look just like you want them to. We trust David and his crew to do a great job on our home. This definitely won't be our last project.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
