    Jeremy was great to work with for my project. I needed a finished office/bedroom above my garage insulated, as it got up to 95F on sunny days and I was tired of wasting money and energy with my window A/C unit. I decided to find a permanent solution. I got quotes from about 5 companies to insulate it. Insulation Solutions was very quick to reply and their price estimate was reasonable and they asked a ton of questions, which was a good sign, so I decided to go with them. They were able to schedule me very quickly and their team was very professional and courteous. I even bought them lunch, since they were working so hard. Jeremy followed up to make sure everything went well. Now even on sunny days, the room doesn't get above 74F, a HUGE improvement! Great work by this company.

    We are very happy with our new attic insulation. The estimate was thorough and product is very good. Only negative is our attic trap door for access doesn't close properly now; I think it got tweaked. Update: the issue with attic closure was resolved quickly and expertly

    The crew at Insulation Solutions were thorough and extremely helpful. They removed all the ancient insulation in our attic, cleaned and sealed the entire area, then installed new fiberglass batting in the attic and underneath the floor. They did this all in 5 hours and returned the next morning to finish up installing netting under the floor to keep the insulation in place. The next day it was 93 degrees in the afternoon but inside it was 74 — ten degrees cooler than usual. I’m super happy that we choose to work with Insulation Solutions and give them my highest recommendation!

    Very strong positive experience, the technicians clearly are capable & they assessed where insulation was most needed, explained different insulation types. I was helped guided to weigh the pros and cons for my older home. The workmanship was solid.

    We had a great experience with Insulation Solutions! We needed insulation removed for electrical work, and they coordinated seamlessly with the project. Afterward, they re-insulated our attic, crawl space, and exterior walls, and even did patchwork—all completed in just 3 days.

    Communication and scheduling were prompt, flexible, and easy from start to finish. Pricing was very reasonable, transparent, and clearly itemized. The crew was efficient, considerate, and polite, which we especially appreciated since we were both working from home during the project.

    Overall, excellent service, fair pricing, and a smooth process. Highly recommend!

    I couldn’t be happier with the results from Insulation Solutions Walnut Creek. The team was friendly, knowledgeable, and responsive to all my questions (lots of them — I’m no expert on insulation!). They gave me advice I didn’t even know I needed. Since installation, I’ve noticed my furnace runs less in the winter. Great customer service, fair pricing, and really great results.

    Insulation Solutions earned a 5 Star rating from me! I had several bids for installation of a vapor barrier in my crawl space, as well as replacing insulation, due to rat damage. Insulation Solutions had a representative come out for a free inspection. The representative was knowledgeable, professional and courteous, as were all the workers who worked on my property. They even did some ‘extra’ work that was not written in contract to better protect my home. I recommend this company highly!

    Hired Sergei through Home Depot Pro Referral. He was quick to respond and generate a shopping list for me. Very responsive and straightforward. He confirmed our appointment and showed up on time. He and his partner Eli did a great job and cleaned up the area when they were done. Will hire him again when we need other work done.

    Sergei's work is detailed and very professional. He even sent a 3d design print out to help us with the design and offered suggestions and took our suggestions. He resurfaced 2 of the decks at our home and completely rebuilt one. He listened carefully to what we wanted, checked in with us regularly, built exactly to our specifications with lots of useful suggestions on how to make it better. He came every day and showed up when he agreed to and worked the full day. We were so happy when the back deck was done. He and his assistant even helped carry our heavy potted plants back on the beautiful shiny deck! We recommend him very highly.

    With appreciation for his excellent work, attitude and work ethic,
    Bret and Sheila

    Sergei installed a Type 2 EV charger, a separate outlet and a light switch inside my garage about 2 weeks ago. When I searched for professionals who did this type of work, Sergei responded almost immediately. Late at night I provided him with details of my projects and within 30 minutes we consummated the agreement to do business. After speaking to him, I was confident he was "the guy". I took no additional calls for my project. He was also able to come to my home the next day, on time and ready to get the job done. He took time to ask questions, assess the layout, review the charger I purchased to determine whether it was sufficient enough for what I wanted and lastly he determined the best place to install the charger.

    His craftsmanship and knowledge is superior. He knows what he's doing. His fees were quite reasonable and he took his time to get the job done, perfectly. I feel very luck to have found him. I could not imagine anyone doing a better job. Needless to say I am thrilled that the installation is complete, which was done perfectly. I am unconditionally recommending Sergei to anyone seeking an EV charger installation and other electrical work. He is now my Lifetime Electrician ... I will never use anyone else. If you're in the market for these services, call him you will be happy you did.

    Sergei provided a competitive estimate for building our shed. He communicated well, arrived on time and worked long days in the heat to finish on time.

    We will hire him again for more advanced projects in the future. In a world of lowered expectations from service providers, Sergei and his partner stand out... hire them....you'll be happy.

    Sergei is awesome ! Very professional, very helpful in installing a 240 A to allow for an electric oven installation. We’d gladly use him again !

    Sergei was very professional and provided a competitive quote for my project. Overall the project went very smoothly. Sergei always arrived on time and worked diligently and efficiently. There was an issue with the installation and I bring this up only to highlight that Sergei was Very responsive and accountable in fixing the issue completely. I would recommend working with him on your next project.

    Sergei quickly diagnosed our outdoor electrical outlet issue as well as our dead skylights in the house. Our house has a quirky electrical system, but Sergei was able to map out our wiring and find a solution. Sergei is responsive and knowledgable, and I highly recommend his services.

    Sergei is a pro! He wired our EV charger with the greatest of care, attention to detail, and at a very fair price. And he left the area cleaner than on first encounter. Once he started the 5 hour job, we left him to allow focus and he worked straight through. We look forward to having him do more electrician's work for us! He is highly recommended!

    When the plumbing in both of our upstairs bathrooms failed, we opted to expand the space and redesign the layout, which required also making adjustments to the front of our home. Thank goodness we opted to work with YBB on the project. We cannot recommend them highly enough.

    From the very start, the YBB team demonstrated an exceptional level of professionalism and expertise. They took the entire project down to the studs, completely reimagined the layout, and delivered a finished result that exceeded every expectation. What truly set them apart was their ability to manage every moving part seamlessly, from navigating the permitting process with the City of San Ramon with ease, to coordinating an outstanding architect, to keeping the daily schedule running like clockwork.

    One of the things we appreciated most was being able to see real, visible progress every single day. It gave us tremendous confidence that the project was in the right hands.

    A very special thank you to Edgar, Julian, Phil and Sam, four of the knowledgeable employees, whose attention to detail, project management execution and deep knowledge of building codes and regulations made all the difference. Their expertise was evident at every stage, and their commitment to doing the job right was apparent.

    If you are considering a remodel and want a contractor who will handle every detail with care, communicate clearly, and deliver beautiful results, look no further than YBB. We were one of their smaller projects. I can only imagine the peace of mind they provide with a total home renovation. Thank you, YBB team - we love our new bathrooms!

    We couldn't be happier with the experience we had with Cam and the team at YBB for our whole-home remodel. A project of this scale is a massive undertaking, and while there are always going to be a few hiccups along the way, Cam’s planning and execution were top-tier.

    The biggest thing that sets them apart is the **quality of the work**. The attention to detail in our house is honestly outstanding, and the finished product feels incredibly high-end. You can really see the pride they take in every square inch of the build.

    Two other things that really surprised us (in the best way possible) were the timing and the budget:

    * **Reliable Timing:** Cam estimated our move-in date accurately to within about a week. Given how often construction projects drag on, we were incredibly impressed by that.
    * **Budget Accuracy:** Our final costs were within roughly **5% of the original estimate**. It’s rare to find a contractor who stays that close to the initial numbers.

    Part of what made this work was the **detailed Gantt chart** they provided. It made the entire process feel completely transparent; we always knew exactly where we stood on a weekly basis and had a clear view of what was planned for the weeks ahead. It really took the guesswork out of the project and kept us extremely well-informed throughout.

    YBB definitely isn’t the cheapest option out there, but in our opinion, they are absolutely worth the money for the peace of mind, the accurate scheduling, and the superior results. All of their subcontractors were fantastic to work with as well.

    In terms of advice for future clients, just be ready to make a ton of decisions! Cam and Sam were incredibly helpful in navigating all the choices we had to make, and we found that being ready to make a call on things fairly quickly was a big part of what kept the project on track. Also, while we could always get things done over email and text, jumping on a quick call or meeting in person was usually the best way to dive into the finer details.

    If you’re looking for a team that delivers high-quality work and actually hits their deadlines, we highly recommend Cam and YBB.

    Our family lost our home in FountainGrove in the 2017 Tubbs Fire. We ended up finding a contractor from Walnut Creek called Younger Brothers Builders (YBB) who is absolutely amazing. We heard all these horror stories about contractors and it honestly scared us a little. We interviewed close to 15 different contractors and ended up choosing YBB because we connected on many different levels. Cam Younger is the owner and he built our home up to our standards and the process was pretty flawless. We are so grateful for his exquisite work, patience, thoroughness and professionalism. Cam is laid back, friendly, humorous and kind-hearted. He’s honest and we always felt he was on our side, not trying to rip people off. We have not had a single bad experience with YBB. They helped us stay on budget (very transparent), we actually came in a little under budget and never hit our contingency. We had a great experience working with him and his professional team. We LOVE YBB and are so grateful for this positive experience! Thanks a million for getting us back into our home. As parents ourselves, we understand the importance of time spent with family, Cam could have looked at our location and refused the job based on the distance and time away from his family, but he chose to help us. Thank you YBB, we feel indebted to them.
