Genius Construction

Amazing! Their team does pristine work. Bottom line, you get what you pay for in this industry, and if you want it done right, these guys will take the extra time to make sure it's PERFECT. For the bathroom remodel, there were some issues with our tile supplier, but the Genius team took care of the issue themselves rather than waiting on the tile company to do it. The bathroom is amazing. For the wood floors in the living room, we were told by multiple contractors that it would be impossible to have it flush even with the Travertine tile I have on the outer sides of the room. Of course, Genius was able to make it perfectly flush. They are familiar with all building codes too. If you want to ADD VALUE to your property, go with these guys and have it done right the first time.

This review should actually count for a dozen glowing reviews. Genius has completed many, many jobs for me and I'm only now getting around to writing about them. As a general contractor, Genaro is my go-to for any project. His crew has done beautiful brick work, gutters, plumbing, interior and exterior painting, stucco work, major electrical jobs, combined two small closets (in different rooms) into one wonderful closet and most recently installed new exterior doors. I love my doors! He picked them up from Urban Door which saved me money. This was a major job which required breaking the stucco. He cautioned the new stucco color may not match but it was perfect. He calls or texts to confirm appointments, shows up when he says he will, finishes when he says he will, pricing is extremely fair and the quality of work is always great. The crew is non-smoking and respectful. Clean up is thorough. Definitely include Genius in your bidding process. You'll probably end up going with them for everything too.

I hated those thick electrical wires that ran through the middle of my yard and when we decided to upgrade the original 1940's electrical panel we decided to relocate the panel as well. Genaro, owner of Genius Construction, had done this many times before and gave me a price on the spot. We were in a hurry to have it done and to make it happen, Genaro had a crew out over the weekend. Coordination between City Permitting and LADWP was smooth and the process was surprisingly quick. Of the three estimates, his was by far the best and the fact that he got the job done so quickly (and cleanly) was a huge bonus for us. Win win. I'd recommend Genius without hesitation.

Genaro showed up promtly for the estimate. The estimate arrived with in days by email and work started when promised. The result was a beautiful fence with gate. Exactly What I asked for. The workers were promt, courteous and quiet. The job was completed faster than promised. I will definately call this company again.

Both the Contractor and his office were extremely pleasant. We are still getting estimates for the work. This was out first contact for this job. We were concerned that the cost was high, however subsequent contacts have been in the same cost area. We are likely to ask him to do the work in the near future

Genius Construction is owned and operated by a wonderfully personable young man with a true artisan's sensibilities. Very reliable and determined, our contractor is easy to work with and always strives for perfection. His tile work is exquisite and exactly what we wanted! Because it is difficult to visualize, our contractor had his tile guy lay out several sample areas using our new B&W tiles to show us the various grout widths from which we could choose. He stuck to our budget (of course we did have add-ons, doesn't everyone -- when you're in the middle of the project and you figure you've gone this far, why not go for it?) and with the exception of one counter that was custom-ordered and took additional (unexpected) time, he stuck to his schedule. Doing a project this size, there are always snafus, but our contractor made every effort to make our kitchen, laundry, and walk-in pantry as perfect as he could. The end result is - we have a FABULOUS new kitchen with lovely granite countertops, and with a much better work flow than the original kitchen had, a walk-in pantry with new wider shelving, and laundry room that needed the wall extended and the doorway opening narrowed to accommodate the new front loaders. They did a beautiful, seamless job on the wall(s), new door, and ceiling(s), and of course, the tile flooring, and we could not be happier!! I would highly recommend Genius Construction for any kitchen, bath, (my friend had two bathrooms remodeled by them and they are GORGEOUS!) or other remodeling project. My neighbors are green with envy ;o) and we expect to enjoy our new kitchen for many, many years!

My large tile floor had a multitude of problems and because it had been laid improperly in 2008, the tiles and grout were cracking. I wasn't sure who I could trust to analyze the issues and correct them so I'd never have to go through this again. I contacted Genius Construction and two other contractors. Genius Construction provided the most knowledgeable assessment. They also did research on every question I asked. They determined several problems existed. First, my raised foundation needed to be shored up for stability. Then they discovered the sub floor had not been screwed down properly. In addition, they discovered the wrong backer board had been used and even worse, the wrong screws were used to hold it in place. Plus the thin-set had not been applied properly (and it was the cheapest product the original installer could have purchased). Add to that, the grout mixture was too thin and I had a perfect storm for tiles popping off, grout breaking, and tiles cracking. After shoring up the house and carefully doing the demo work, Genius Construction stripped everything out and repaired or replaced what needed it. They fixed the sub floor (even cutting out a squeaky section and replacing it). They floated concrete over the sub floor for added stability and painted on a thin rubber membrane to allow for slight movement. All other components were installed beautifully. Best of all, the tile layer was an absolute artist. I was very picky about how the pattern flowed and which tiles were placed next to each other. He understood what I wanted and was a master at installing. To eliminate having to seal my grout, I asked for epoxy grout to be used. It's very labor intensive and difficult to use, but they did it brilliantly. This was not an easy tile job. A 48" built-in refrigerator had to be professionally moved with very little clearance to get it out. The dishwasher was removed as well, all arranged, supervised, or done by genius. Needless to say, I am thrilled with the work they did and they have done numerous jobs for people (including family and friends) I've referred them too. I have known the founder of Genius Construction since before the company was founded - one reason I trusted them to fix this problem. Their pricing wasn't the absolute lowest of the three bids I got, but it was much, much lower than the highest and was exactly what I had estimated this job would cost to do properly. They did an AMAZING job! They told me I'd be happy and I am. I highly, highly recommend them for any contracting needs.

Genaro showed up with his workers everyday right on time. They were very punctual and completely the work in a timely fashion. The work was first rate and we are very to refer Genius to others.
