Construction Company reviews in Riverside, California
-
I have never dealt with such horrible labor and unprofessionalism. In dealing with rob, my contract manager.
There was very little communication to me when I had to have a condo bedroom and downstairs rebuilt, because of a small fire. I was never informed of things happening. Ahead of time, only afterwards and I was treated as if I was a second class citizen. They were a referral from State Farm. I will never make this mistake again. Very, very poor service when it comes to their contract labor.
The only bright spot seemed to be was Deanna in the office and Sonia, the office assistant.
The people they hired to paint did a very bad job. They had to come back twice. And I'm still not happy with it. Please do your research when trying to decide if you want to use these people. I highly do not suggest using them. -
The downstairs bathroom toilet leaked and I had extensive water damage March 2025. Whenever I had to file a claim with my Homeowners insurance it was a nightmare.
First, I was blessed with an excellent insurance agent that recommended Prime Construction. Deanna from Prime and the insurance agent worked great together and I didn’t have to stress over ver anything. Prime paid my insurance directly which was awesome. The water damage included the lowers parts of 2 walls and part of a garage wall behind the bathroom. The wax ring of the toilet needed to be replaced. The toilet and vanity needed to be removed. Because of past experiences when other companies removed walks they ended up destroying the room. But Prime cut out only what needed to be cut out and they carefully removed and packed my toilet, vanity, sink, and mirror. When I had a problem with the separate plumber contractor, Prime stepped in and fixed the wax ring and hooked up my plumbing. The wall texture and matching the paint color was perfect.
If I had any concerns, Prime was quick to fix.
The job took less than 2 weeks to complete.
5 months later I had an issue with the main water line in my front lawn. My gardener broke the line. I called around but it was a Sunday and I had a hard time getting a plumber to come out. For whatever reason, I called Prime Construction to see if they could recommend a plumber. Since it was a Sunday, the office was closed, but the phone call went to Deanna cell phone, and she answered. She was kind enough to recommend a plumber that would come out on Sunday. She didn’t have to do this for me. My claim had been completed months prior. I was able to get a couple of quotes from 2 other plumbers but the one Deanna from Prime Construction gave me the best quote and wouldn’t charge me anything if he couldn’t fix the leak. I asked if he had to do more work then he quoted would he charge more and he said, “No”. Thank you Deanna! Thank you for going above and beyond. -
We highly recommend Alvarez Construction Services for home remodeling projects. They were referred to us when we needed major repairs in both of our bathrooms. Diego and the team handled everything—from installing a new shower pan and bathtub, to laying new tile, updating the flooring, replacing faucets, and repainting the walls. Later, we added more work, having them paint and put in new flooring in other rooms. Throughout the two weeks of the renovation, the crew was respectful of our home and kept things as tidy as possible. The pricing was fair and reasonable for the quality of work provided. Even though we had an unrelated electrical issue that required a separate contractor, the focus and skill shown in transforming our bathrooms and updating our floors made the whole experience very positive. Our bathrooms look fantastic, and we are thrilled with the results!

Our experience with Alvarez Construction Services for our complete home remodel was fantastic. We needed a full renovation, including updates to the kitchen, bathrooms, living areas, and even added a master bedroom upstairs. From the beginning, Norman and Gerald were reliable, communicative, and truly attentive to every detail. After researching many companies and getting several quotes, we felt confident choosing this team, even though their estimate was a bit higher—it was absolutely worth it! The entire project was finished ahead of schedule, taking only 8 months instead of the expected 10, and everything stayed perfectly on budget with no unexpected costs. Throughout the process, Norman was patient, organized, and always made us feel like our home was a priority. From the initial design and planning, to architectural details and city permits, to a clear payment schedule, everything was handled with professionalism and care. Even after the remodel was complete, Norman checked in to ensure we were satisfied and that everything was working smoothly. We feel so lucky to have chosen this team for such a big project, and we couldn’t be happier with our beautiful new home. We highly recommend them to anyone looking to renovate their space!

i have worked with another contractor before, but after my experience with this team, i would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for home remodeling services. gerald and his crew helped us build two adus on our property and also extended our master bedroom. from the first meeting, gerald was prepared with our engineer’s plans printed out and ready to walk through our ideas, even before we signed any contract. anytime we faced challenges, gerald always found smart and cost-effective solutions to keep the project moving forward while trying to save us money, even though home remodeling in california can be expensive. what really stood out for us was the clear communication, honesty, and transparency throughout the entire project. gerald delivered on all of those things. overall, we feel like we got a great balance of price and quality. our property turned out even better than we imagined, and we’re really happy with the results.

We hired a remodeling team to update both of our bathrooms, and we are really pleased with the results. The bathrooms were finished right on schedule and within our budget. We’ve relied on their services for several years now, and everything has held up perfectly—no issues at all. The craftsmanship is top-notch and both spaces still look beautiful. Later on, I contacted Diego to see if they could add a custom gazebo for some extra shade in our sunny backyard. They built it just the way we wanted, and it still looks fantastic. You can really tell they pay attention to detail in all their work. We’re very happy with everything they’ve done for our home.

As a new homeowner, I’ve really appreciated the help I got with my home remodeling projects. From checking things out before I bought the house to recommending and handling repairs, the team was always there when I needed them. Diego and Jeff showed up right on time, finished the repairs under my house quickly, and left the area spotless—like no one had even been there. When it was time to fix some issues the termite inspection found, they handled the structural work efficiently and made sure everything looked great before heading out. My house feels safe and sturdy now, thanks to their hard work. I was especially impressed that they followed up after the job to make sure I was happy with everything. That kind of dedication shows they really care about their work and their customers. You don’t see that kind of service with most contractors. I’ll definitely use them for any future home repairs or remodeling projects—I couldn’t be happier with their service!

Our home in Riverside needed a complete remodel, with almost the entire house stripped down to the framing. We had a limited budget, but Gerald and his team came out, carefully assessed the work, and provided a clear and detailed estimate. They managed to finish the renovation right on budget and even completed everything ahead of schedule. Throughout the process, Gerald shared great design suggestions that truly transformed our home and made the finished space even better than we imagined. Communication was always quick and reliable, no matter if we reached out by phone, text, or email. Choosing this remodeling company was definitely the right decision. They remodeled two bathrooms, the kitchen, three bedrooms, plus the living and dining rooms—our house has never looked so good. Gerald can even share before and after photos to show the amazing results. As first-time homeowners working with a contractor, we couldn’t be happier with our choice.

I recently hired Alvarez Construction Services for a soft-story retrofit at my rental property in Riverside and had a truly great experience. Gerald worked closely with my budget and made sure the entire remodeling process went smoothly and stayed on schedule. Norman handled all the necessary paperwork for the city and was very helpful in answering my questions. Before deciding, I got quotes from a few other remodeling companies, but I chose this company because they handle everything in-house, which made things much easier. Gerald even gave me a tour of their facility so I could see the quality of their work firsthand. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for home remodeling or retrofit services.

Alvarez Construction Services was wonderful to work with for our backyard remodeling project. Diego came to our home for the estimate, explained the turf installation clearly, and gave us time to decide without any pressure. He was very friendly and kept in touch to make sure all our questions about the project were answered. Gerald handled the scheduling and project details very smoothly, and the installation was set up quickly. The financing application was simple, and managing payments online has been very convenient. Jeff and the crew completed the artificial turf installation fast and with great attention to detail. The new yard looks beautiful, clean, and perfect for our family. They cleaned everything up when the work was done and were very patient while the kids were nearby. We are extremely happy with the whole experience and the finished outdoor space.

We hired a team to build a backyard ADU for our family, and the whole home remodeling experience turned out great. The planning process was simple to follow, and all of our design and layout choices were explained in a clear, easy way. Malik and the team were very responsive from the beginning, especially during the early planning and permitting stages, and communication stayed strong throughout the project. The construction phase also moved along smoothly. Diego gave regular updates both directly and through the project app, which made the build much easier to understand and kept us informed as homeowners. He was always willing to answer questions, explain the next steps, and keep the ADU project on track. His communication was clear, and the job site management was handled very well. Overall, we would highly recommend this remodeling team for anyone planning an ADU or similar residential construction project. They showed strong experience, solid craftsmanship, and a good understanding of design, scheduling, and permit coordination. The finished backyard living space came together beautifully, and the entire process felt organized, professional, and well managed from start to finish.

Alvarez Construction Services painted our older home with careful attention to every detail. The crew cleaned and coated stucco, wood, brick, and plastic surfaces, and they also handled small carpentry items that helped the exterior look complete and well finished. Gerald gave helpful advice when some of our original ideas were not the best fit for the project, including guidance on paint colors and finish choices that worked better with the home’s style. They recommended high quality paint and proper surface prep, which made a big difference in the final result. The team showed up early, stayed productive throughout the day, and kept the project moving smoothly from start to finish. Their workmanship was thorough, neat, and professional, and the finished paint and trim work gave the home a refreshed, updated look. Everything was completed as promised, and we are very happy with the outcome. We highly recommend them for painting, exterior repairs, and carpentry work.

I recently had a wonderful experience with Alvarez Construction Services. After searching everywhere for some replacement salt and pepper tiles to match the old ones in my kitchen, I almost gave up because most places didn't carry them anymore or only sold them by the box, which was way more than I needed. Since I had a day off from work, I decided to stop by and see if they could help. Even though I hadn't been able to make it over before, I was really glad I finally did. One of the team members, Norman, was incredibly helpful and friendly. Without hesitation, Norman checked and found exactly three tiles for me—the perfect amount to repair the damaged spots in my kitchen floor. The whole process was simple, and I left feeling really satisfied. It's not easy to find such attentive service these days, and it made my day!

I needed to get my bathroom floor and joists fixed quickly, but I wasn’t having any luck with other contractors in Riverside. Most wanted to charge a minimum fee before even seeing the work that needed to be done. When I reached out to this home remodeling company, Diego was very responsive and made time to help, even though his schedule was full. He sent his crew to check out the problem, and they were able to fit me in right away. The team repaired my bathroom floor and replaced the joists in just a day and a half. Diego kept me informed during the whole process, and his crew was polite, respectful, and paid great attention to detail. It’s hard to find an honest contractor, but I’m glad I found one. I’ll definitely call them again for my next home remodeling project!

After dealing with leaks in our old roof, we decided to hire a home remodeling crew in Riverside to replace it with a new Spanish-style roof. From the beginning, Gerald was incredibly knowledgeable, caring, and professional. The team worked quickly and skillfully, removing the worn-out tiles and installing beautiful new ones. Gerald made sure to keep us updated at every step. Now, our house looks amazing, and all the leaks are completely gone. Our neighbors were so impressed with the transformation that they decided to hire the same team for their own roofing projects. We are extremely happy with the results and the excellent service. The crew truly went above and beyond to make our home safe and beautiful.

We wanted to remodel our kitchen in Riverside without spending too much. Alvarez Construction Services was great about working within our budget and helping us get the look we wanted. Diego was in charge of our project, and he did a fantastic job handling the challenge of installing new cabinets on our uneven floor. The whole team was friendly and easy to talk to. The painters did a good job, and overall, everything turned out better than we hoped. The project stayed on schedule and the costs matched what we were told from the start. There were a couple of small details we needed to discuss, like the cabinet shelves being only slightly adjustable and some of the trim work at the bottom of the cabinets needing a quick fix, but these were quickly taken care of. Now, our kitchen looks amazing and feels brand new. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for home remodeling in Riverside.

Jeff and his team were always professional, showing up right on time each day and making sure to answer all of our questions throughout the remodeling process. Their workmanship was top-notch, and they really listened to our ideas and concerns, which made a big difference.

We hired a team to remodel our kitchen and update our cabinets from natural wood to a fresh white finish. Right from the start, Gerald was great to work with—he even did a video call to look at our space before giving us an estimate. The pricing was fair and honest. The crew’s craftsmanship was top-notch, and even when the weather wasn’t ideal, Gerald made sure the project stayed on track by being flexible with our schedule and working weekends. The whole team paid close attention to every detail, making sure everything looked perfect. We’re very happy with the results and the professionalism throughout the project. We’re looking forward to hiring them again for future remodeling work.
