Welcome Renovation

We are so pleased with our new bathroom from Welcome Renovation. We had our other bathroom remodeled about 10 years ago by an independent contractor who managed to check the boxes for every negative stereotype a contractor could during the rebuild. It was a nightmare and we’ve been reticent to have any remodeling done since. I’m happy to say we had the complete opposite experience with Greg and his team at Welcome. As Greg said at the outset, “We’re not the cheapest, but we’re also not the most expensive.” We had the opportunity to use a contractor who was a friend of a friend for this job, and we would have saved some money going that route, but it would have required a lot more hands-on involvement and we just weren’t interested in playing those games again. We wanted someone to come in, fix our problems, make whatever repairs are necessary, and rebuild our terrible little bathroom. Once we settled on a design with Welcome, we paid them money, and they came in and cranked it out. There were no hidden or added costs, they showed up every day, they worked their asses off, did exactly what they said they were going to do, and delivered us a beautiful new bathroom as promised. The renovation was scheduled to take 4-5 weeks, but they did it in 3 weeks—apparently this was record time for the company? Zoom! What was once our “terrible little bathroom” is now our favorite room in the house and we’re considering moving our living room and bedroom in there. Huge thank you to Greg, Ladarius, Marco, and the rest of the team. We’ll be talking about the kitchen next.

We are so thrilled with our kitchen and laundry room remodel with the Welcome Renovation team! We started construction while I was 7 months pregnant (crazy, I know!) and they were able to finish the job before our baby arrived! Their team was professional, knowledgeable, considerate & just overall amazing. They helped us with every design decision, answering all of our questions and were patient with us during times when we just couldn’t make up our mind! They were extremely well organized- had zero “down days” from demo commencement until the kitchen was finished, and often worked Saturdays at our request. Everything was timed and scheduled perfectly. They sent us an end of day recap and plan for the next day so we knew the plan every step of the way. Their construction crew, cabinet & glass guys were some of the best we’ve worked with: from the attention to detail to their cleanliness- and everything in between- we were impressed! Living through a construction project is never fun- but they went out of their way to make it as easy & manageable for this very pregnant mama & her 2 year old! We finally have the kitchen of our dreams thanks to Welcome Renovation!

Our experience with Welcome Renovation was very easy and straightforward. Our designer Lucy was great at letting us know what to expect, and gave us status updates along the way. The workers building our kitchen were all very friendly and professional. Their work was top-notch! Our kitchen was finished in under 4 weeks, and the cost was what they told us it would be, no surprises. We are so glad that we found Welcome Renovation for our first remodeling. They created an amazing kitchen for us!!

We cannot say enough good things about our experience with the Welcome Renovation team. They were referred to us by friends who had a good experience and suggested we give them a bid. This was our first professional renovation and it really spoiled us. I wasn't sure how it would be possible that they could be onsite and in touch at the start and end of everyday or that they would bring and remove materials each day without storing them. Moreover, they tidied up each day behind themselves and truly were the most respectful of our space and belongings. The quality of the custom cabinetry and finishes is truly amazing, as well as the workmanship and attention to detail. They managed to deliver a flawlessly executed kitchen for a price that I'd argue was a bargain, all in 3 weeks time. Without question it was a great experience. The whole team was engaged from day one through the end of the project. We've heard some very real renovation horror stories, this was an absolute fairytale. Thank you to Greg, Lucy, Lukus, and Marcos for your profound professionalism and talents. We look forward to future projects and sharing our experience with our network.

After interviewing 10 contractors, Greg and Lucy at Welcome Renovation was number 11 and the one I decided to hire. I recently renovated a condo and had a terrible experience so I wanted to make sure I hired the right person. Greg stood out from the rest because he was not pushy and had a trust worthiness to him. It is important to note, Welcome is not a contractor, they are a project manager/ design team and work with one particular contractor for their all their jobs. I did a large scale full home remodel, full kitchen, 3 bath's, floors, and paint. I believe is probably the largest project Welcome had done when we hired them. The estimated completion was a little delayed but that is to be expected with such a large job. Welcome's upfront cost was what I was looking for bc if my previous negative experience of constant change orders. Greg and Lucy are responsive and pay attention to details. Overall I am happy with my remodel and am now 4+ months after completion. I've had a few items that needed fixing after the fact and Greg and Lucy would have the contractor out within a week to fix my issue, this peace of mind was well worth hiring Welcome Reno. Thanks Welcome Renovation!

Welcome Renovation is a sweet welcome after previous experiences with contractors who absolutely did not know what they were doing, took way too long, and cost too much money for frustratingly sloppy work that ultimately needed to be redone. Our experience with Welcome Renovation was the complete opposite: Greg, Lucy, and their team were highly professional, knowledgeable, prompt, efficient, meticulous, practical, honest, transparent, trustworthy, friendly, and just a joy to work with. Ours was a HUGE project. We wanted our kitchen, our master bathroom, and our powder room completely torn apart and redone because they were outdated and not as functional as we want them to be. We knew it was a costly, time-consuming undertaking, so we wanted a renovation company that we can trust. We found Welcome Renovation through word of mouth, and from the moment we met Greg, we got a good vibe. The guy knew what he was doing. One of the best points about Welcome Renovation is respect. They respected us. They respected our vision, our space, our time, our money, our needs. They listened to what we wanted, made some suggestions and advice, but ultimately worked hard to execute exactly what we wanted. They checked and re-checked and triple-checked things to make sure we are fully satisfied. And because they showed this respect, they earned our respect as well. They also did such a wonderful job. Our kitchen and two bathrooms were completely redone in about two months-- that's including tearing down everything, redoing the plumbing and electricity work, tiling, flooring, fitting in new appliances, painting, sticking wallpaper, etc. We feel like we live in a new house. And we love it so much. Thank you, Welcome Renovation!

Working with Welcome Renovations was the best decision we could have made when we purchased our home. We had a kitchen that had the original bones of a 1960s house and needed to be completely redone. I spoke with Greg at Welcome Renovations, and he gave me a quote and a timeline and said they could start right away. The quote that was given to us is what we paid, and Greg kept everyone on a strict timeline. The design and finishes are high end, and we are very impressed with the attention to detail. We plan to bring Welcome Renovations back when we update our bathrooms.

We recently moved to SoCal and were in desperate need to remodel the kitchen in our condo quickly. After talking to a big box store and a few other local options, we found Welcome Renovation. Greg was super responsive, detailed and provided a very competitive price with an all-in approach. We just completed everything and LOVE the results - top quality finishings, beautiful design work and overall a great experience that met our timeline too.

We cannot be happier with the outcome of our primary bathroom remodel project. Greg and his team helped turn our outdated and frankly decrepit space into a real sanctuary! Greg understood and creatively honored our need to maximize literally every square inch of our tiny space - while simultaneously ensuring the room has super airy, open feel. Greg and his team are professional, efficient, and a pleasure to have around. We are smitten with our new bathroom and Greg’s whole team!

I was amazed at how Greg Takeshita and his team at Welcome Renovation transformed my 30-year-old bland condo bathroom! Greg has a streamlined design process that takes the agony out of decision-making. The workmanship was stunning. I had a number of unexpected challenges, including building permit delays, Greg stayed on top of everything. He always kept me informed about what was happening. If he said workmen would be here at certain day and time, they were. I would highly recommend Welcome Renovation to anyone looking to renovate a bathroom or kitchen.

Greg and his company Welcome Renovation did an amazing job on a recent renovation of my LA loft. Greg and team were always punctual, courteous, and most importantly, exhibited an eye for detail and took great care in every aspect of the job. We completed the project on time and on budget; there were never any surprises and Greg was communicative every step of the way. I was never, ever nervous or concerned about anything. That's rare in the world of contracting and home renovations. Cannot recommend them highly enough.

Greg was an excellent partner for our condo's kitchen renovation. I loved having one person I could trust to take care of everything. On top of that, his all-inclusive rate was a lot less than other quotes I got. Design phase: Our original kitchen had an awkward double L-shaped layout, and I hadn't even considered the possibility of changing the layout because other people told us it would be more expensive to do so. But Greg suggested this new layout that made our space feel so much bigger and assured us it wouldn't be a big deal at all (and it wasn't). Greg also has good taste. I also have a design background, so I'm particularly invested in the design phase. It was great to collaborate with Greg on the elements that mattered to me (finish materials) and defer to his expertise on the rest. Construction phase: The majority of the project, from demo day to having a functional kitchen, was only about one month, which was great since we are also living here during construction. The contractors he used were all great at each of their specialties and very nice. Greg came by often to check on the project and was very detail-oriented, making sure everything came out perfect and catching things I might not have even noticed. There were a few small punch list items to get through at the end, but he handled it all with ease, and we're thrilled with our new kitchen. Greg is super easy to work with, and when we get around to updating our bathrooms, I'll definitely work with him again!
