Constraction reviews in Encino, California

We had never done a major home renovation before, so we were sure to meet with several contractors. They all gave similar speeches about work ethic, quality, etc, but David from IND seemed really trustworthy and thorough. He walked us though the whole process, explained how they work with specific architects, and assured us that they had handled jobs just like this in the past. The scope of our project was to extend two bedrooms, add a bathroom, and remove a kitchen wall.
Throughout the whole project, David was in constant contact with us through WhatsApp. It was great because his entire team was on the same message chain. Any issues that popped up along the way were quickly figured out and resolved with the rapid communication.
Although David himself wasn’t at the worksite every day, his foreman Carlos was. It was very reassuring that any day I was able to talk in person with someone about the job.
When it comes to the quality of the work, well, I can be a pretty picky person. I have no problem getting into the attic or crawling under the house to check things out and make sure things are done correctly. In fact, there were a couple thing that I wanted done a little differently and they took care of it right away.

I’m sure if I really tried, I could be nitpicky about some things, but overall David’s crew did great work. They didn’t cheap out and cut corners and we couldn’t be happier with the work. They also finished the work on time. A few things at the very end were delayed due to the covid19 lockdown but that’s totally understandable. 99% of the work was finished before then. They also stayed very close to the budget. Only one or two extra things came up, and then of course there were the extra things that we decided to also do in the middle of the project, which David was extremely accommodating with.

If you take anything from this, it should be that David is an honest contractor who does good work and really strives to make the customer happy.

David and his team are true professionals !

they remodeled our kitchen, master bathroom, flooring, electrical, plumbing, painting throughout the house and more...
They did exactly what we wanted and we are very happy with the final outcome.
we started out with 3D renderings of the remodel and David and his team guided us step by step all the way to completion, which includes all permits, ideas, finish material selection and purchase.
the workers are just amazing, each one of them, they are good people, good manners, very respectful, trustworthy and fun to work with (we used to enjoy the Latin music in the background:)

we absolutely love our new home and enjoying it every minute.
David has a great team of workers, subs and onsite manager (Amir) which made our overall experience very pleasant.

I can't say there were no issues during the project (which we expected), but every time we had a bump in the road we would call David or Amir and they jumped right on it.

thank you IND, we LOVE you All !

We have a house on the hillside in Sherman Oaks and wanted to fully redesign and modernize our kitchen and do it so it would take advantage of our great valley views. The job has just been finished. Our new kitchen is everything we hoped it would be and more.

We hired IND Construction. The quality of their work was first rate. The workers were invariably highly skilled, friendly and considerate. The job was completed on budget with no surprises for extras. Erez Shifferman, IND’s Senior Project Manager, and Allan Pineda, IND’s foreman for the job, guided us through all aspects of the renovation with skill and kindness. Whenever we had to choose designs, Erez and his team advised us well, demonstrating their extensive knowledge of this business. Whatever we asked to have done was done just as we requested. Whenever issues arose, Erez and Allan resolved them patiently and effectively.

When a major kitchen renovation is in progress, there is a risk living in the house will become intolerable. Everything Erez, Allan and IND could do to minimize inconvenience for us was done effectively. The workers cleaned up carefully after each work day. We were surprised our lives could continue with a minimum of upheaval.

We could not be happier or more grateful. Our high expectations for what our kitchen would become have been exceeded. We love how it looks, how it functions and how spectacular the views from it have become. It has been a great pleasure to have IND build it for us.

At a moment when we were just about to seriously start looking for a contractor to renovate the kitchen in our old home, we found IND Construction from Yelp. That was 2-1/2 years ago & we have used Mike & IND Construction on a number of renovation projects both in our old home & new home. Mike & his team are very open about work to be done, potential issues that might surface & able to work within the bounds of our budget(s) & timeline(s). Some of those potential issues did arise during our kitchen remodel but Mike & his team were able to work with us on the right solution for the quality, budget & timeline. I was traveling internationally during this time & getting in touch with Mike during this time was not a problem. They make sure everything is to code & I was truly amazed at how they were able to keep city inspectors on schedule especially with the numerous bad/horror stories I've heard about city inspectors from friends & neighbors. Because of their great work in our old home, we were not only very happy with the result but we also got much over our asking price when we sold it. In our new home, we're continuing current renovation & future projects discussions to make our new house feel even more like home. I can truly say that fate is a funny guy as he introduced us to Mike within hours of my wife & I finally deciding we needed a contractor. I would absolutely recommend IND Construction, Mike & any of his team to anyone looking for a top notch, to-code renovation project.

IND Construction treated us like family and our home like their home. They converted our 2 car garage into a beautiful, efficiently designed, ADU. Additionally, we renovated our small awkward kitchen and turned it into a gathering spot for family and friends (or will be once we can gather again!), we landscaped, and more! Every step of the way, IND made certain that we were happy and when issues arose, we worked together to problem solve. David, Ehran, and Ben are honest, kind, and integrous. Gina, in the main office, is top notch, always ready to dive in and help out, wonderful to work with, and gets the job done. They stand behind their work and went the extra mile to make sure we were happy with the results.

We hired IND Construction for a complete kitchen remodel in my 1940 home. This is the second time that we hired IND Construction. IND Construction completed a fabulous main floor bathroom remodel for us two years ago. We were so happy with the results of our bathroom that there was no question as to which contractor we would use for the kitchen. David and IND Construction were our guys!

IND completed a full kitchen remodel for us which included custom cabinets, custom floors, granite countertops and backsplash, replaced windows, new plumbing and electrical, recessed lighting and the knockdown of walls which separated the kitchen from the dining and family rooms.

David is extremely knowledgeable and offered suggestions that were helpful and in tune with our taste. His workers are craftsmen who are well healed in their trades. They also were reliable, honest and trustworthy which is equally as important. Davids bid was very reasonable for our remodel especially given the quality and level of craftsmanship that he continually delivers. The project was estimated to be completed in 3 months and was actually completed a week early.

We are thrilled with our new kitchen as you can see from the beautiful pictures! We have a master bathroom remodel coming up in the near future and you know who our contractor will be......David and IND Construction! Thanks again David!

We just finished our Kitchen and floor remodel project with IND Construction. Avi and his team did an exceptional job and we are super happy and excited at the final outcome. Our home almost looks like a brand new one now! They exceeded our expectations in every aspect of the project. The company logo says "constructing hearts" and I truly believe that they 100% live by that value. Avi is a true professional and a man of high integrity, honesty and humility. He is very organized and gave us a detailed phase-wise plan at the outset of the project. His team then not only stuck to that plan, but the best part is, they were able to complete the project 3 weeks ahead of schedule. I couldnt have asked for anything more!! Avi told us that he treats every project, how big or small it is, as if it is his own home and at the end of the project he hands over that home to his client. I think thats a great work ethic and I can see the results of that attitude and sincerity in the quality and workmanship of what he and his team have built for us.

I must also admit, that I am not a very farsighted and organized homeowner myself which meant that there were several last minute changes I had asked him to do which were not part of the original scope. For instance, all the demolition work was part of the day 1 schedule, but only after 95% of the job was completed, I had a change of mind and wanted a center piece in the family room removed as well :D. Avi not only took care of it within a day but also repainted the wall where the piece was installed. There are several other such big and small instances where he and his team were very patient and accomodatve, went above and beyond their scope and delighted us with great end results.

As homeowners, a remodel project when we are living at the property is not easy to handle. We literally had to live out of our upstairs bedroom for 4 weeks, but IND constructions and all their construction staff ensured that the project was as hasslefree as possible. They employ very professional, smart and humble staff and they have a clean-as-you go policy after every work day which is great.

I must also give a special shoutout to Ana, our wonderful interior designer who was recommended by Avi to design the kitchen. We have a small-ish kitchen with an awkward nook area. It was Ana's wonderful design that got us hooked to proceed with IND construction. Ana is also super friendly and professional and stayed with us throughout the completion of the project giving us valuable design suggestions at every stage. She has become our go to person for any design recommendations in future!

If we ever plan another remodel project for our home, I cant think of any other group than IND and I will highly recommend them for any of your remodel projects too. We are super delighted and we cant wait to make more memories in our dream kitchen now!

We found IND construction through my sister over 2 yrs ago & it has been an absolute phenomenal experience. They worked 6 days a week nonstop for over 7 months in transforming our kitchen, 3 bathrooms, 2 kids bedrooms, & our master bedroom into "a brand new house". With his project manager & David always in constant communication with us for all details, we found this experience to be more than expected. Small "bumps in the road" always occurs with major remodels but David & his crew were more than willing to fix them without hesitation. David help us find an architect for the designs which matched our wishes completely. David help us find many subcontractors who worked very hard in transforming the work smoothly. We even asked David to help us design our landscaping & hire a great workers to finish our landscaping in less than 2 months. Quality was excellent. For major construction for inside & outside, we can always expect issues that came up but David's crew were more than willing to fix them in short time. Thank you David & Thank you IND construction for your wonderful work. You are all truly professionals!!!

We hired IND to do an almost complete interior renovation. We'll let the pictures speak for themselves, but overall, very pleased with IND! On time, on budget and very high quality work. Most importantly, this is a company and crew that you can trust. David is very thorough in explaining all the aspects of the project and great about making himself available throughout for any questions/concerns. Between David and his project manager, Henry, we always felt like we were covered. Lastly, IND also provided us with great referrals for interior design and media/entertainment, which really helped pull everything together. We would definitely work with again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a quality contractor!

We hired IND construction to build a 120 sq ft loft and open up a wall, remove a chimney and install a pair of large sliding glass doors. This involved structural work and a very detailed blueprints.
Our site manager Dorel was great to work with and always responsive to our needs. He visited the job site daily (sometimes more) and communicated progress along the way. The final product was everything we had hoped for and the finishing work to match some pre-existing elements of the house was spot on. The job was done in a timely fashion (once we worked out some issues with the city) and the cost was inline with the contract we signed.

The contract was clear and concise. The price was competitive. The Project Manager Tomer was attentive and professional. Ruben, the lead worker, and his crew were punctual, extremely hard working, meticulous, and polite. The work, (a patch, repair, and paint job on a 117 year old craftsman home) was done beautifully. We are truly pleased with the outcome. IND will be the first contractor we call when we do another home project. Would highly recommend IND construction for your construction needs.

We recently completed a full kitchen remodel with IND Construction, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. After 25 years in our home with the same dated kitchen, we knew it was time for a major upgrade—and IND delivered in every way.

From day one, Gal and Guy, our project managers, were incredible partners. Gal was especially helpful during the design phase, working closely with the cabinet company’s designer to help us envision a space that would truly transform the heart of our home. One of the biggest changes was removing a wall that opened up the entire kitchen to the living room—and it has completely changed how we live and entertain. Now, when we're cooking or grabbing drinks, we still feel connected to everything happening in the living room. Our dinner parties have never been better!

The entire team was professional, kind, and communicative throughout the process. They set up a dedicated WhatsApp group for our project, which included multiple departments, so we always knew what was happening day-to-day. Gal and Guy were also always available by phone if we had any questions or concerns, which really helped take the stress out of a major renovation.

When we hit an unexpected snag—a surprise load-bearing wall—IND acted quickly. They brought in engineers and reworked the plan efficiently without compromising the design or timeline more than necessary. We felt confident and supported the entire way through.

The final product is stunning: brand-new cabinets, beautiful new lighting (including under-cabinet and toe-kick lighting), and sleek appliances all came together to create a space that’s both highly functional and gorgeous. The job site was kept clean, and everyone who came through our home was courteous and respectful.

We originally found IND through a Google search, and seeing their flawless 5-star rating made it an easy choice. Now, after going through the process ourselves, we completely understand why. We would wholeheartedly recommend IND Construction to anyone looking to remodel their kitchen—or any part of their home, really. They were a dream to work with.

We hired IND Construction for several projects in our house including major bathroom remodel, replacing entry doors, replacing patio doors and windows, exterior paint and siding. We had worked with many contractors before and IND is definitely the one we would use for any future projects.

The pricing is reasonable, quality of work excellent and there were no surprises along the way. The work was done while we were living in the house but everything was kept clean and contained.

We are extremely happy with our project manager Dorel, who was a pleasure to work with, always on top of everything, asked the right questions and provided good advice when needed. He helped us find great material options that worked out perfectly with our design! Highly recommend!

Thank you! My bathroom looks like it was right out of a magazine.

First class service, I highly recommended this company. In the future I will certainly use them again.

I needed a job done on short notice. Kamran accommodated me and did a great job

I absolutely encourage you to work with this group! Punctual, ethical, professional, considerate, neat. . . I can't say enough about how easy they made the installation of my windows and doors for me. And, simply delightful people to work with👍😊

Kamran has completed many jobs for me, from putting up shelves and hanging art to rebuilding the corner of a stucco home which had plumbing and electrical requirements. His number is one to keep handy!!!
