All reviews for Elite General Contractor

Hello! I'm thrilled to finally share my 5-star review! This project was in the pipeline for over a couple of weeks from inception to finish! I engaged Brent, Ryan and a skilled construction crew in mid-autumn to overhaul our bathroom. Initially, I was a bit hesitant as I had about six or seven different alternatives on how to tackle the task. However, I finally chose to proceed with this team, mainly due to the seamless process they explained. Ryan created a detailed work plan that perfectly matched the design we had chosen. Brent supervised the entire project right from demolition to the final touches, ensuring all materials, permits, inspections, and labor were flawlessly coordinated. I'm absolutely delighted with the end result. Highly recommended!

I recently worked with an absolutely amazing contractor during our home remodel. We are two-thirds of the way through this 'top to bottom' project, and I can confidently say we made the right choice. The bidding process was spot on, and the pricing was both fair and accurate. The quality of work is incredible, and the attention to detail is impressive. We faced some significant challenges, including water damage and electrical issues, but the team handled everything expertly. They brought our house up to code and made sure it felt like a 'new' home when the work was done. They were accommodating with our tight budget and even offered assistance when we decided to take on some tasks ourselves to save costs. Additionally, they completed the job on time, which was a big plus. We are definitely planning to reach out again when we're ready to save for the next phase of our project with Elite General Contractor.

My partner and I selected a renowned team for our kitchen remodeling project in El Cajon and we couldn't be happier with their services. Brent and his crew were always punctual, swiftly addressing all our queries and needs. The subcontractors that this team used were equally skilled. Any concerns we had were promptly and responsibly managed by Ryan and his team. I would heartily endorse their services to anyone in need of home remodeling.

Before we started our remodeling project at our school in El Cajon, we requested bids from several companies. Others just sent quotes based on the plans, but Howard actually visited our site, walked through every phase of the four-part project, and was the first to provide a thorough, detailed bid. After reviewing all the options, we chose them because Howard showed real professionalism and had a lot of experience. From the first day of the project, everything went exactly as promised. Even though the remodeling happened during business hours, our operations were never disrupted. The team did everything on schedule and within our budget, with no surprise change orders. We continue to hire them for more remodeling work. If you’re a business owner who cares about getting quality work for your investment, we highly recommend this company.

first off, we want to say a big thanks to brent and the crew for a fantastic job. we recently had our floors redone, remodeled the master bathroom, and got the whole inside of our house painted. the team really made the remodeling process smooth and easy for us. brent was always in touch and the workers were really friendly and listened to all our questions and concerns. the end results look amazing, and we couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. if you're in el cajon and thinking about remodeling your home, we definitely recommend this team for your next project.

After a fire caused major damage to our house, we needed to completely remodel and rebuild our home. We talked to several contractors, getting recommendations from friends and family and looking up well-reviewed companies nearby. When we met with maxwell and ryan, we felt right away that they really understood our needs and concerns. Both of us are pretty detail-oriented and had a clear vision for what we wanted, and they listened carefully to all our ideas. maxwell and ryan did a great job explaining the whole renovation process, especially the extra steps and costs that can come up when fixing up an older home after a fire. Not only does our house look amazing now, but the construction process was much faster than we expected. Our insurance company thought it would take almost two years, but maxwell and the crew finished everything in about seven months, which was incredible. Once our plans were approved, the rebuild moved forward smoothly. Even when there were a few surprises, like extra repairs the insurance didn’t catch, they handled everything with care and attention to detail. Their thoughtful design work made our house feel like a home again. ryan was especially helpful in guiding us through floor plan options and working with us to pick out design details that made our space feel personal and comfortable. He also helped us find vendors with furniture and finishes we liked at prices that fit our budget. i would definitely recommend this remodeling team to anyone, even if you’re particular about what you want like we are. They truly made a difficult situation so much easier and brought our home back to life.

we had a fantastic experience working with elite general contractor on our big kitchen remodel. the project included taking out the ceiling and two walls to open up the space. ryan and his architect put together detailed plans that got approved really quickly. once things got started, ryan made sure that all the crews—plumber, concrete, electrician, framer, drywall, masonry, painter, cabinet maker, quartz installer, and flooring team—stayed on track and did high-quality work. everyone was very professional and paid close attention to the little details. ryan was always easy to reach, dependable, honest, and kept everything clean during the job. our new kitchen looks amazing and the whole process went above what we expected. i highly recommend this company for anyone thinking about a remodel!

After getting a few estimates, we decided to go with Elite General Contractor for our home remodel. Brent came over and gave us a lot of helpful information, explaining the entire remodeling process clearly and thoroughly. He really stood out as knowledgeable, friendly, and honest, and never made us feel pressured. We felt very comfortable working with him. The remodeling work was finished quickly in just a few days, and the crew made sure to clean up everything before leaving. They really went above and beyond to make sure we were happy with the results. It was a pleasure working with a team that truly cares about their clients’ satisfaction. We’ll definitely recommend them to friends and family, and we look forward to working with them again on future projects!

We had a fantastic experience with our recent home remodeling project, especially with the seismic retrofit work. From the beginning, Howard was extremely informative and patient, answering all of our questions and making sure we understood every step of the process. He provided us with clear estimates and explained the entire scope of work before the engineering even started, so we always knew what to expect. The engineering itself was excellent—Howard’s plan was spot-on, and everything was handled quickly and efficiently, including submitting all the necessary paperwork to the city. We ended up needing to do much less work than some of our neighbors, which saved us a significant amount of money compared to other quotes we had received. Throughout the construction, the team was always accommodating and worked quickly without cutting corners. There were no surprise charges or hidden fees, and the project supervisor, Maxwell, was always onsite to help with any questions we had. The site was kept safe and clean every day, and our tenants were happy since parking wasn’t blocked overnight and everything stayed tidy. We’re extremely pleased with the results and love how our building looks now. I highly recommend this company to anyone in need of home remodeling or seismic retrofit services!

Elite General Contractor recently finished a fireplace remodel at my house in El Cajon. This was the first time I did a big home improvement project, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. The team was always professional and did excellent work. Sometimes, they had to adjust their schedule to fit mine, and there were even days when Ryan and the crew stayed late to keep the project moving along. Whenever I had questions, I got quick answers from the office, and Ryan always explained the process and gave helpful suggestions, which made things a lot easier. Even though remodeling a single wall was a big investment, I’m really happy with the new look and quality of the work. There’s a small tweak needed for the recessed lighting, but I trust they’ll take care of it soon. Overall, the experience was smooth, and everyone was friendly and easy to work with. I’d definitely recommend them if you’re planning a remodel in El Cajon.

We are happy to share our great experience working with this remodeling team. Devin and the crew just finished renovating the bathroom in our 100-year-old bungalow home. From the very beginning, Devin was always professional and quick to respond to our questions. He made sure to understand our ideas for creating a new space with the classic bungalow style, and the whole crew paid close attention to every detail. When unexpected repairs came up with the structure, electrical, or plumbing, Devin explained everything clearly so there were no surprises. Even with the extra work, they finished the bathroom right on time. We’re looking forward to having them remodel our kitchen next and won’t hesitate to call them again.

I had a fantastic experience with my recent kitchen remodeling project. From the first meeting to the finishing touches, the team was both friendly and professional. Howard took the time to listen to my ideas and worked with me to design a kitchen that turned out even better than I had hoped. Communication was clear throughout the entire remodel, and I always knew what was happening with the project. The quality of work in installing the custom cabinets and choosing top-notch materials was excellent. My new kitchen is now both beautiful and practical, going above and beyond my expectations. What I appreciated most was how approachable and caring the whole team was, making the remodeling process smooth and enjoyable. I highly recommend them for their great service, skilled work, and positive attitude.

I want to share how satisfied I am with the outstanding home remodeling service I received from Elite General Contractor during my recent renovation in El Cajon. Ryan and Brent truly went above and beyond to make sure my whole house remodel turned out even better than I hoped for. From the very beginning, they showed a high level of professionalism and skill. They listened to my ideas and were always quick to respond to any questions or concerns I had along the way. Ryan took extra time to understand what I wanted and also gave helpful suggestions that made the final design even better. The finished remodel is absolutely beautiful and modern—every detail was handled with care and the craftsmanship is top-notch. I’m very thankful for the hard work and dedication from Ryan, Brent, and the whole team. If you’re looking for a reliable and skilled company for your home renovation, I highly recommend this team.

after a rough start with our first contractor, who just couldn't deliver the quality we needed, we decided to pause everything. we’d rather have nothing done than pay for poor work. a neighbor then suggested we reach out to another remodeling team. devin listened to what we wanted, took time to get all the details right, and quickly provided a clear quote. the best thing about working with devin and the crew was the amazing quality of their woodwork and the attention to detail throughout the remodel. they showed up on time every day, which was a big relief, and really respected our schedule. my wife and i are so happy with the results—it’s a huge change from how stressed we felt before. the new team finished our home renovation right on budget and even wrapped up before the timeline we expected. we’re thrilled with how everything turned out!

i really don’t get why some people rate this remodeling company so low. the whole time they worked on my kitchen and bathroom remodel, i had a great experience with them. every time i needed to reach out, ryan was super friendly and always willing to help. their pricing was also very fair, which is a big deal around here. sometimes, folks might not treat their homes with care after a renovation and then complain about things later, but honestly, if you respect your space, you’ll have a smooth experience with this team. from what i saw, they always took care of everything and made sure clients were happy. don’t just go by the bad reviews—give this company a try for your home projects. my cat loves the new space, and so do i.

We talked to at least five different contractors before choosing maxwell and his team for our home remodeling project. we had three bathrooms that needed a full renovation, plus some other updates around the house. maxwell was great about walking us through the whole process, from the initial design ideas to picking out the right fixtures. he gave us clear and accurate quotes, and was very flexible whenever we wanted to make changes. we’re really happy with how everything turned out and are already planning to have the team remodel our kitchen next. honestly, i used to enjoy staying at hotels just for the nice showers, but after our remodel, even high-end hotel bathrooms don’t compare to what we have at home!

we really appreciate working with maxwell. he's dependable, communicates often, charges fair prices, and does top quality work. we recently purchased an older home in el cajon that needed a complete remodel, and hired maxwell to manage the project. he was very flexible working alongside a couple of specialty contractors we had already chosen for cabinetry and windows, even though later we realized his recommendations probably would have been better. for our remodel, we removed some walls in the kitchen, installed new hardwood flooring, upgraded the heating system, expanded one bathroom, remodeled another, and reconfigured several closets. everything came together smoothly and without stress. maxwell stood out because he kept us in the loop every step of the way, and if any small issue came up, he was quick to address it and make it right. he handled a lot of the detailed carpentry himself, which helped keep costs down. maxwell and his team always showed up on time and sometimes stayed late to make sure the work stayed on track. i would absolutely recommend him to anyone planning a major renovation, and i'd definitely call him again for future projects. the results turned out fantastic.

We recently hired a local home remodeling company to install a whole house fan in our El Cajon home, and the outcome was fantastic. Since we've used their services before, I reached out again for an estimate for our new place. Maxwell came out personally to assess the home and help us choose the right fan size. After his initial visit, he returned and suggested that a smaller fan would actually work better for our space, showing a lot of attention to detail. Maxwell also shared some really helpful homeowner tips specific to El Cajon, which was great since we're new to the area. He ordered the new fan for us and then sent Brent, his experienced crew member, to handle the installation. The workmanship was excellent, and the installation went smoothly. Throughout the process, the support from Maxwell and Brent was impressive—very attentive and far beyond what I expected, even as a returning customer. I’m extremely pleased with both the quality of their work and the whole experience.

We reached out to get our siding replaced, remodel our master bathroom, fix some drywall in the master bedroom, and put in new windows downstairs and in the master bedroom. Maxwell gave us our first estimate, and then Devin came by to give us an updated quote after we added a few more projects to the list. The remodeling crew was always professional and respectful. During the demolition, they made sure to keep us informed about anything important they found. The quality of the work was excellent, and we’re very happy with how everything turned out. If we have more home remodeling projects in El Cajon, we know exactly who to call.

I can’t say enough great things about this remodeling team! They truly went the extra mile in every way—quick responses, honest advice, top-notch workmanship, and real professionalism. I reached out for a quote to have two bathtubs in my El Cajon home repaired and completely refinished. Devin helped me from the start and made sure everything went smoothly. The technician, Maxwell, was fantastic too. Their attention to detail really stood out, which is so important for bathroom renovation projects. Customer service was excellent throughout the process. I highly recommend them to anyone needing home remodeling work, and I’ll definitely call them again for any future bathroom upgrades.

The entire team, from the first consultation to scheduling, permitting, and installation, was fantastic. Everything went smoothly and was handled with real professionalism. Communication was clear and timely from everyone involved. Ryan, the lead installer on my home remodeling project, was especially impressive—he noticed some potential issues with my existing gas line, took care of them, and made sure I understood what was happening every step of the way. Having worked with various contractors and service providers over the years, I can honestly say this home remodeling crew stands out. I wanted to choose a local El Cajon business I could trust to be there for future maintenance and quick support if any issues ever came up. With the hot weather and occasional power outages in California, it's a big relief knowing my home improvements, like my generator, are reliable and expertly installed. I feel much more secure and comfortable in my home now.
