Construction Company reviews in Bothell, Washington

Jose Cruz was an excellent contractor choice for our complete kitchen remodel project. Jose is experienced, a clear communicator, and he was responsive to our questions and requests at every turn from planning, demolition, and installation. His team worked with our schedule and demonstrated care for the worksite. Quality is of utmost importance to Jose. For example, to maximize both form and function, the cabinet layout that Jose and Brittany worked out was not only beautiful, but has been incredibly practical. In addition, the budget process was clear, and his team adhered to that. Jose guided us through a number of product choices and design elements, which truly helped us in our decision making. It was very easy to discuss additional items at our request that fell outside of the budget. We were very appreciative of the entire process, and would use Cruz Construction & Renovation to do any additional work on our house in the future.

Cruz Construction has been amazing to work with. Jose is super responsive and his team works fast. I’m grateful for the work they’ve done to convert my carpet floors to hardwood!

We hired Cruz Construction to remodel our basement, which included a great room, laundry room, bathroom, new stair case and build out of a small office. Jose and his foreman, Rodrigo, made up the primary team - and we really couldn't have asked for a better group to be in our home for the three-month project. We were continuously impressed with their attention to detail and with the respect they showed our home.

We had an initial vision for the space but once work was underway, there were some unexpected challenges. Jose and Rodrigo brought creative ideas and consulted with us along the way. They walked us through the work they were doing and why. There was no cutting corners around many of the foundational things. In the end, the finished basement exceeded our expectations.

Before this project, we really dreaded the idea of hiring a contractor in fear of all the renovation horror stories you hear. Our experience was so painless and now we have basement that is cozy and functional. If you're planning a renovation, you are great in great hands with Jose & team!

I cannot give enough praise to Jose and his team at Cruz construction. I reached out to him in late August to get a bid for a full bathroom remodel. He responded quickly and was out to give us an estimate within a few days.
I was amazed at not only his professionalism, but how easy he was to talk to about the project. He listened to my ideas, and presented a beautiful design.
From the time we agreed to the project, he was in continual communication with us. We were able to fully start the remodel in January, but even before then, he assisted us with picking out materials, helping us choose items from from different vendors, and working out details that we had thought of. Unlike other contractors, very small details matter to him. He is attentive to the most minor inaccuracies, and will go back and correct them until he and I are both happy.
In the past, we’ve had difficulties not having a project manager onsite. Not the case with Cruz Construction. Jose was here almost daily (M-F), unless he was picking up materials, which was always communicated to us. We also appreciated the additional security provided by having a lock box for the key to our house. He didn’t even seem to be bothered by our dogs, who were kenneled, but can be very vocal.
Jose gave us a dream bathroom, down to the detailing on the shampoo shelves. I would totally work with him again on future projects, and will be doing so for my daughter’s bathroom in the near future.

TL;DR: Hire Cruz Construction and Renovation

This project has been in the works for over a year. We initially asked Jose to come out and estimate a much more expansive remodel for a master and guest bathroom. This would've been our first remodel as homeowners, and we were looking for rough numbers that we could start setting budgets to. Jose was very detailed, methodical, and offered a number of ways for us to conserve budget, while still getting the space we wanted.

A year later, and with expectations properly set, our guest bathroom still needed a lot of work. With young son and one on the way, we needed a tub to replace the shower as no bathroom in the house has a tub. Jose took our designer's plans and we worked with him to make it executable. We were responsible for buying all finish materials and had them ready for him on just about day one. His crew set out flooring protection and wall protection to keep as much dust contained as possible. Jose and his team, who were fantastic, accommodated our desire to remove and blow back in nearly new insulation in our attic to raise the ceilings to match the rest of the house. They laid large format tile on the floor and executed a ¼ offset tub surround tile, while adding beautiful vertical blue tile behind a floating vanity. Tile really was the standout part of this project and Jose nailed it with flush, flat, surfaces on three different tiles. The shower niche is a lowkey highlight as the way Jose was able to cut the tile reduced grout lines and he even set the shelves at a slight angle to let water drip out.

The project turned out amazing, and Jose's attention to detail was great; he hit is completiondate to the day. I expected to have a long punch list as I'm quite detail oriented myself, but it was surprisingly short with all the finishing touches, sealants, straight paint lines, and care with the finish materials. I would 100% work with Jose again and look forward to our next project together.

We hired Jose & team after deciding to stay in our home a bit longer. In order to do so we wanted to expand our home to the outdoors with a significant deck. We interviewed about 6 different contractors and decided to go with Jose, and WOW, he did NOT disappoint. He worked with us every step of the way trying to figure out the best options to stay within our budget. He customized (and built) everything from the railings, stairs, privacy wall and the roof. We will use him going forward for every project that we have, no doubt. If you are looking for someone creative and reliable, Jose and team are the right team for you!

Jose and team did a phenomenal job on 2 large projects for us: a complete shower tear down / renovation and repairing of our hardwood floors in a room which had buckled ~2 feet high and split due to water damage. Jose worked with us to customize the shower layout. He was also able to salvage much of the damaged floor and re-use it which we greatly appreciated as a close match would likely not be possible. Billing was itemized and clear and aligned very well with initial quotes. His crew were extremely professional with high attention to detail and cleaned up spotlessly when their work was done. I have recommended Cruz Construction to my friends in the area and I will definitely be using them again for any future projects.

Cruz construction and Renovation LLC has been a breath of fresh air to work with. We contacted a number of contractors to do a complete remodel of our kitchen before ultimately deciding to go with Jose and his crew. This was one of the best decisions we have ever made! From the very first interaction with Jose, he has gone above and beyond, well exceeding our expectations throughout the entire process.

Jose stayed true to form ensuring he would not sub contract this job to others. Unlike previous experiences with other contractors, Jose personally worked on our kitchen from day one. He kept his crew small and efficient. Our biggest concern with any contractor was communication. Jose consistently provided us with updates through the kitchen remodel. Nothing was done without first communicating with us. As far as the design on the kitchen, Jose was encouraging and mirrored our enthusiasm. He gave us great suggestions when we weren’t sure about design aspects. He never pushed his own agenda, but rather wanted to make our vision of our kitchen come to life. He provided sound suggestions along the way.

Lastly, Jose and his crew exemplified professionalism and excellent craftsmanship. They were punctual, on time, and always cleaned up at the end of the day. Their attention to detail is what really set them apart. During installation of our backsplash, if a tile was slightly off, Jose would not stop until it’s precisely aligned or he would simply redo a section of the kitchen until it was perfect.

If you are on the fence or unsure about which contractor to hire for your home improvement, I urge to contact Jose and Cruz Construction. We will be hiring Jose again for our guest bathroom in the near future. You will thank me later.

Jose and his team were amazing! I talked with at least five different companies but Cruz Construction was the best. If you see this review, you do not need to talk with another companies. His price was fair. His quality is good, and also his communication was great as well. Strongly recommend Cruz Construction.

We worked with Cruz Construction and Jose for an extensive, year-long home remodel, and we are very happy with the result. After talking to over a dozen contractors, Jose immediately stood out as kind, honest, transparent, and easy to talk to.

The scope of work was massive and complex, including nearly 2000 square feet of tile and heated floors, layout restructuring, full electrical and plumbing changes, custom millwork, and the installation of our kitchen cabinets and appliances. This project had many moving parts and also, naturally, required change orders as we made design adjustments midway.

Jose's flexibility was crucial. He was always willing to accommodate our design changes and put his best foot forward to get the job done exactly the way we wanted it. Cruz Construction and Jose take pride in the quality of their work ans craftsmanship.

A major strength we observed was Jose’s ability to collaborate and manage the job site. Since we hired a designer for this project, effective communication was essential, and Jose was great at working with them to prioritize creative decisions. Furthermore, we occasionally had other specialized contractors on site (for masonry repair, countertop installation, and railing installation), and Jose always managed the logistics smoothly, giving them the necessary space and access to complete their specialized work without interference.

We highly recommend Jose and Cruz Construction for anyone undertaking a large or complicated renovation.

We started off talking about a kitchen remodel and ended with updating the whole first level. Jose was patient and accommodating. We added a little from the original job, like putting in the french doors. Jose is highly skilled and knowledgeable, helping us make decisions when we were having trouble. Attention to detail is a key component to what he does.
Jose is a man of his word and easy to communicate with. If he says he will do it, it will get done.
His crew is kind and respectful and I would like to thank them also.
We are grateful to have met Jose. He was recommended by a neighbor. He took very good care of us. We will call him again most definitely. I have added some before and after photos, I hope it does some justice because it’s a job well done and we are very pleased. Thank you Jose!

We experienced a plumbing emergency, and Steven arrived within an hour with the necessary replacement part to resolve the issue. We have relied on him multiple times for various home repairs and have consistently received excellent workmanship. We highly recommend Steven from Emmanuel Construction.

Did excellent and quality work

Found Steve to be very knowledgeable, resourceful,, and prideful of his work which was evidenced in his finished product in which I was very happy and satisfied.

Steve is wonderful. Very professional and on time. Does good work.
Also, very handsome!

Steve aka Emmanuel is a sweatheart I've used him for help with my washer I will continue to go to him for help with projects around the home I happy to have found him

I hired Emmanuel Construction Inc for installing cabinets while I was out of town. The job was completed on time and to my satisfaction. I will be hiring the team again and in fact have a pending quote for a bathroom refresh.

Steve is professional and a fair value. He has great all-around knowledge of all house repair jobs. He painted our house both inside and out. I rely on him for all handyman jobs.

A roof problem appeared just prior to the rain forecast and Steve responded to fix the problem in late afternoon just at dinner time. When rain hit the next day there was another problem that we didn't suspect---same thing, he came again and solved the problem at dinner time. That is what good service is all about. I highly recommend Steve---you'll get the same great attention that I received..

Emmanuel Construction is very transparent and communicative during the bidding process. Furthermore, they alleviated pressured sales you see so often these days, and we went into the project with confidence and a peace of mind. We were so pleased with the end result.

We had a great experience working with Steven on a project we needed done quickly after some damage to our home occurred. Now you can’t see what was damaged, as Steven did a beautiful job. We will definitely call again!
