Creation 7 Builders

Highly recommend working with Creation 7 for any renovation to your home! Eyal Matalon and Avi Matalon were very personable, knowledgeable, honest, reliable and professional! Not only did they provide quality work but were constantly in touch with me with the status of my renovation! Which I really loved because it gave me a peace of mind so I never needed to worry or chase after them. It was a big remodel so I did a lot of research and interviews with many contractors but so happy that I went with Creation 7! We did a 5,500 SF renovation with the style of Mid-century modern, it was taken down to the studs and rebuilt by their professional and knowledgeable team! They did Structural modifications, Re-piping and re-wiring, New flooring throughout the house, new drywall, 2 kitchens and 5 and a half Bathrooms, All windows and sliding doors. I was amazed that all this work only took 4 months!

When we bought our Saratoga house last year, we already had many ideas brewing in our heads on how we could transform it into our dream home. We were very fortunate to find Creation 7, an award-winning design-and-build firm. Step-by-step, we worked closely on the project with Eyal Matalon, his brother Avi, project coordinator Asaf and their team over the past year to turn those ideas into reality. We made major changes to the interior layout, without altering the house’s external footprint. We chose Creation 7 after seeing their previous work and interviewing 6 other highly-rated design firms, renovation specialists, and builders. After design consultation with Creation 7’s team and structural engineers, we were able to replace 5 large Greek columns supporting the main living space with a single 50-foot-long steel girder. In the same vein, an unnecessary bookshelf wall was removed and we also opened up a kitchen wall. This ended up creating an incredibly expansive great room. Stepping into the house now is like entering a broad, yet inviting museum hall. Two aisles of windows atop of the 15-foot-tall entryway provide cathedral-like lighting. Overall, the house went from 4-bedroom/3.5 bathroom to a 5-bedroom/4.5 bathroom with much improved feng shui and logical flow. From the original sunroom, we created a new master bedroom suite, complemented by a large master closet. We added a 3rd bedroom to the main floor and added new in-suite bathrooms to each of the suites. The bathrooms feature radiant floor heating and walk-in curbless showers. Leading to the downstairs are modern open “floating” stairs. The original stair orientation was from the side of the kitchen. With the new design, the stairs start more sensibly from the main hallway. The new kitchen has all top-of-line appliances and an adjacent pantry room. We are very pleased with the waterfall kitchen island concept suggested by Creation 7. We took care to select our favorite cabinets, lighting, and tiles from both online and local stores with help from Creation 7. Throughout the house, we added 7 skylights, which help brighten and accentuate the open contemporary feel of the home even more. We re-located the laundry room as well as the guest bathroom, which gets compliments from all our friends and visitors as reminding them of a 5-star hotel. We now have energy-efficient recessed lighting, LED fixtures, and fast-charging capability for electric cars in the garage. In retrospect, our project was a major undertaking, since it involved almost every aspect of the house, from a new roof to new air ducts, electrical and hardwood flooring. We really appreciate all the effort the construction teams put in. We thank Creation 7 for all the extra above-and-beyond help they provided, such as moving heavy items from one level to the other and providing last-minute labor when needed. It was quite an exhausting year, but well worth it! Now that the

Great crew, they let me do the finish work that I had wanted to do, some contractors want to control everything, but they worked with me and the product was wonderful.

CREATION7 remodeled my kitchen, and I am very happy with the results. Eyal gave me a quote for a summer kitchen remodel with a tight timeline. my tenants were moving out in June and we were moving in in August of 2017. There were several changes made to the first quote as I realized that there was more unforeseen work that needed to be done older house. Eyal quoted and re-quoted several times without issue. At one point, it looked like the repairs may exceed my budget and he worked through every line item with me and we were able to make trade-offs that made sense. They then got to work, starting demolition expediently. The project took ten weeks to complete, and that included demolition of the entire kitchen and adjoining room as well redoing lots of plumbing and dry wall as we uncovered issues with the older house. I now have an open concept space with the kitchen and dining room as one large area. Every step of the way, they went through the issues with me, carefully evaluated the cost, addressed a bunch of unforeseen issues and still got things done on time. My project manager, Yaniv, could not have been more helpful. He was patient as I asked many, many, questions, included me as he came up with ideas and suggestions, took into account my own ideas and desires, and designed a beautiful space. He gave me recommendations and helped purchase the cabinets, countertops and windows and made good suggestions on how much to spend on each one. He spent a good deal of time working out issues that came up with the cabinets I chose, some of which were unexpected. He also made new drawings for the city to accommodate last minute changes. The workers were polite and friendly. The lead, Jo Jo was meticulous and always available to explain what he was planning to do. Yaniv and Eyal told me they would create a beautiful kitchen for me, and they really did! One of my neighbors stopped by and liked what he saw and had his kitchen redone by them as well with the same results. I highly recommend this company.

My kitchen remodel has just been completed by CREATION7, and I am very very pleased. I called the company on August 1st of 2017, and three weeks later we signed a contract. Two weeks after that we started demolition. The project took twelve weeks to complete, and that included demolition of the entire kitchen as well as tearing down a wall and a fireplace. My project manager, Yaniv, could not have been more helpful. He was patient as I asked many (many, many) questions, included me as he came up with ideas and suggestions, took into account my own ideas and desires, and designed a beautiful space. He gave me recommendations on where to buy appliances and approximations on how much to spend on each one, as well as suggesting where to look for backsplashes, countertops and flooring. He drove me down to the cabinetmakers to see the cabinets. The workers were polite and friendly. The engineer was meticulous and always available to explain what he was planning to do. Yaniv told me he would create a “gorgeous” kitchen for me, and he really did! I highly recommend this company.

We hired Creation 7 after a 200-year-old oak tree fell on our rental house destroying the laundry room, kitchen, family room and sunroom. Avi Matalon of Creation 7 was our savior. He worked with our insurance and us through the whole project, was quite a project, but we are so very pleased with the results. Great customer service! I would highly recommend Creation 7 for anyone who needs a major construction project to be done on time!

Working with Creation 7 for our kitchen remodel was a very positive experience. Eyal Matalon and Yaniv were very professional in their communications, thorough and attentive to questions and details of the project. The project's timeline was met, and we would give five stars for the effort and final results. Family and friends say the kitchen is "incredible!" A job well done. - Victor & Josie

We hired Creation 7 for an extensive remodel of an older home we had just purchased. Avi Matalon helped us in creating our wish list and gave us stunning ideas for the renovation. His crew was on the job every day and the work progressed on time and on budget. Thank you Avi and team for a job well done.

Creation 7 is the contractor of choice for building my small home (ADU) from the ground up and I feel so fortunate to have found them. Excavation was difficult, the permit process somewhat frustrating, coordinating with PG&E a challenge; but they worked out all the problems with tact, persistence, and cooperation. The workers were excellent, skilled, hard working, on time, and cleaned up each day. Eyal's team assisted me with shopping for finishes, flooring, appliances, and helped so many details that I did not need a designer. The entire team was amazing and finished the house within four months as estimated. It was a pleasure working with them on this project and now I have the beautiful home of my dreams.

We hired Eyal Matalon from Creation7 for our kitchen remodel. We are so happy with our decision and with our new kitchen! The whole process was made simple and Eyal was very helpful throughout the process. We were able to stay on a budget we were happy with and the end result is amazing. The crew working at the house was friendly and quick.

very professional

Eyal was a doll. He was friendly and helpful and I felt comfortable with him.. Jose, the foreman did an excellent job for me..

Quality- 5 stars! Customer service- 5 stars! Workmanship- 5 stars! Communication- 5 stars! Product- 5 stars! ZERO Headaches- 5 stars! Price- Competitive; and after seeing the end result- 5 stars! Satisfaction- 5 stars! If I can give Eyal and his team more stars I would leave 6+ stars. I can't stress enough how happy we were with Eyal and his dedication to our projects. My husband and I hired Eyal and his team to remodel our master bathroom as well as our guest bathroom. We did the typical online search for the right contractor. We received multiple quotes and followed the typical recommendation for what it took to spot the right person for our projects. And to be honest I HATE SALESMEN! The most difficult thing about the whole process was hearing what we wanted to hear from those we met with until we had our first meeting with Eyal. Eyal was very honest about the remodeling process and gave us a completely new perspective on what it took to get what we wanted. It was hard to not hear what we wanted to hear but at least we were able to understand the construction process. And with that said Eyal gained our trust from the very beginning to the very end. Both of our bathroom projects ended up looking AMAZING!!! We are now considering remodeling our Kitchen. Or as I like to say, "MY" kitchen. Eyal along with his team will once again be hired for our new project. 5 stars, 6 stars, or 10 stars, no matter how many stars there are, Eyal will always exceed your expectations!

Firstly, thank you Eyal and Creation7 team for providing us conscientious and detailed work. As well as addressing all my concerns about remodeling the kitchen! When my husband and I were looking for General contractors to update our kitchen, I was looking for organized and flexible workers who were careful with our old living space. Eyal’s organized and careful approach immediately put me at ease. The main thing was just making our kitchen modern, and the team achieved that efficiently. I liked that they gave me options too. I also, of course, appreciate that they were affordable and worked within my budget. I am forever grateful for that. Every concern I raised to them was addressed and respected making the entire process anxiety-proof for me. And I'm a generally anxious person, so kudos! The Kitchen floor, the cabinets, and the countertops were all installed perfectly, and the finish on everything is beautiful. I couldn't be more grateful. We were so impressed that we plan on using Creation7 to renovate the bathroom as well. A+ contracting work that I totally recommend.

Master Bedroom addition, Lafayette - Creation 7 build the master addition on our house. It is generally understood that having major remodeling done your house can be a frustrating process. It's noisy, messy, and usually goes over budget. I can honestly say that almost none of these were true for our experience with Creation 7. The men were so respectful of our space. They cleaned up at the end of the day - no mess was ever left. The construction generally stayed within budget. These guys were a pleasure to be around also. They were funny and nice, but also respectful of our need for privacy. Also our completed addition! It's so gorgeous! Everything is in perfect working order. Their eye for detail and overall craftsmanship is amazing. I really can't say enough how great our en suite master bedroom is. It has transformed our house from an old boring space into our dream house. I highly, highly recommend Creation 7!

First and foremost I do have to say that home remodeling can be one of the most stressful things you can ever do. Finding the right person/company can take as long as 2-3 months or sometimes longer to find. A few years ago I needed my kitchen remodeled and I decided to look for a reputable contractor with excellent experience. I'm a very picky person when it comes to choosing and/or buying things. I look at quality more than anything and I understand that sometimes with quality you have to pay the price. This is why finding the right person was very important to me and it took me a very long time to find that right person. A couple of months into doing research and meeting different people I was fortunate to come across Eyal. I first had the great pleasure to meeting Eyal when he was still partnered with a very large and reputable company a few years ago. Our first meeting was better than expected since most of the other contractors I met prior were more focused on making a hard sale then helping answer any questions that I had at the time. You have to understand that I'm a skeptic so promising me the world is not the best route to take with me. Eyal's approach was much much different. At one point I even forgot that I was meeting with a contractor. Rather than talk about how great he was or how great his company was we focused more about my kitchen. We shared ideas, solution to problems, different scenarios, and not once did we ever talk about the price or budget. Eyal's priority at the time was to help answer as many questions as possible. By doing so he was able to show me his past projects on his laptop and explained the kitchen remodeling process in detail from the start of the project to completion. During our meeting I was able to understand that Eyal was interested more in providing exceptional service than making the sale. This was a great sigh of relief. And. Cause of this I knew that I was able to trust Eyal. Our first meeting ended taking up more than a couple of hours. We then scheduled a second meeting to go over the more important details in which I soon after came to a conclusion that Eyal was going to be the perfect person for my kitchen remodeling project. During the kitchen remodel I was amazed at how clean my home and the construction site ended up being. I know that this is what was promised but what I saw during the remodel exceeded my expectations. Eyal always stayed in communication with me and was always ahead of schedule. I'm sure you know that with any construction project there will always be hurdles to overcome. We did come across a few issues that we couldn't see prior to demolition but all of this was communicated to me prior to beginning the project. The best part of all was that I was prepared for the worst and Eyal set best case scenarios/solutions in case we were to face any issues. Fortunately for me they weren't major. Eyal truly did make a huge impact on my day to day life. Not onl
