Cabido Design & Build

JCabido was great. They handled all of the details without fuss. The workers were completely on top of everything, they came in on budget and on time, even after having to make a few design changes. We're planning on hiring them to redo our kitchen and our backyard.

After a brief consultation, we worked with Cabido to develop a floor plan to finish the basement. They provided an itemized list of duties and costs, which made it easy to get work done within our budget. Prior to the work, I had searched for three bids for the work and Cabido beat them all. Payment was easy and electronic; the payment was made from a bank account and I couldn't figure out how to pay using just a credit card. The guys who did the work were professional and easy to work with. They were also easy to work with whenever unexpected issues arose. I would suggest working with these guys for general contracting, including plumbing, walls, and ceiling.

The team was great. Very friendly, communicated clearly throughout the process and did a very nice job. I asked a lot of questions along the way which they answered thoroughly. They took the approximate drawings I had done and made them a reality. Very much appreciated!

J Cabido was amazing to work with! We asked several companies for a bid and J Cabido came back with scope & pricing the same day while others took days or weeks to respond. They were extremely affordable for the work we had done, started immediately (on a weekend no less) and had people at our house every day and most weekends to ensure they finished everything within the very tight timeline we had. They also accommodated several additional projects (or let us know in advance if the additional work we asked for would push us past our deadline). They were available around the clock via text, phone and email and were always very professional. I’ve already recommended them to friends and family and will continue to do so because they were so pleasant to work with, did an amazing job with close attention to detail and were very affordable.

We reviewed several bids for the remodel of our bathroom. J Cabildo was not the cheapest but they were the most self assured and professional and we were looking for quality for this particular job. Bernard knew what we were looking for and worked with us to set up. We had a few hiccups in the contract process (mostly because of travel) but once we got going, it was smooth sailing. What sets this company apart was the way they communicate with the clients and how responsive they were to our inquiries. Gui gave us regular updates, and through every phase, he let us know what to expect and he anticipated needs down the line. Super pleasant to work with and the crew was respectful of our house and cleaned up daily. The end result was absolute quality work. We had a pretty serious tile job and it was superb workmanship from demo to the final fixtures. We've hired a lot of companies in the DC area for various remodeling jobs.Though Cabildo might cost a bit more, I would rather pay more for quality and less drama than deal with some of the reindeer games we have experienced with cheaper firms. Highly recommended.

There aren't enough good things to say about J Cabido remodeling. Every step of the process was smooth, efficient, transparent, and headache free. Bernard arrived promptly to provide a quote. He worked with us as we tried to figure out what to trim down to help with costs. Before the project started he brought his team on site to give them an overview, work out some of the design elements, and make sure everyone was clear on process and expectation. The 2 gentleman that were assigned to our project were GREAT! Rob was the lead. One thing that I really loved and appreciated about the process is that the same 2 gentleman came to our home every day until the project was finished. If they weren't going to be on site, ex. when the electrician was working, the Project Manager informed us in advance. The team was on schedule despite the number of requested change orders. They were flexible and patient with us as we changed our mind on the kitchen design multiple times. Every step of the process went smoothly. This is the third contract I've worked with for major home renovations and I could not be happier. I love our new kitchen and family room. I would highly recommend J Cabido. I will definitely use them again for any future projects! So great. So so great!

The contractor never returned call to me regarding setting up time for an estimate.

JCabido did a full inspection and gave a ton of details before starting the work. They helped us find a structural engineer to judge what was vital or not to do. The quote for the work was very clear. The work they did on our house was very thorough and they did a great job. The finished job looks fantastic and the workers were polite and cleaned up every day. We did not have any inconveniences while they worked on our house and we are extremely pleased with the outcome. I would recommend them highly. The cost is a bit high but it was worth it for a job well done, professional communications and solid work.

Excellent. Before I chose the I looked at three other companies and JCadibo presentation from estimate to completion was very impressive.

They did a good job. Showed up, worked hard, cleaned up neatly behind themselves. Everyone was pleasant. The only thing that could be improved is communications. When I called to ask when the work was scheduled to be performed, I was told the Project Manager would call me with a date and time. I didn't hear from the Project Manager until after the team arrived.

I had an extremely difficult time finding a contractor who was willing to take this job. Despite some scheduling issues, I was ultimately satisfied with the very solid reinforcements JCabido installed in my garage ceiling. Bernard and his team were responsive both to the initial inquiry and to the necessary adjustments that had to be made to the engineering plans guiding the repair.

We hired J. Cabido to finish the basement in our 1936 home. The job involved framing, electrical, sheetrock and painting, flooring and instillation of doors and windows. We were impressed by their attention to detail and ability to perform the work on time and on budget. The crew was very courteous and cleaned up each day. We are very pleased with the finished product and would not hesitate to recommend J. Cabido for a project of this nature.

We hired JCabido for two separate jobs. Their work was excellent in all respects. The teams were thorough, professional, and courteous. The quality and care they put into the work was obvious. They cleaned up every day and respected the space. I would hire them again without reservation.

The job turned out beautifully and we really enjoy the new space created. Jcabido was very helpful in correcting minor issues that we pointed out and was dedicated to leaving us with a job well done. As the job progressed there was some increase in the scope of work which they readily accommodated with an increased cost.

Our experience with the entire JCAbido team was extremely positive. The estimate and work appointments were completed as agreed. The price that we paid was extremely competitive. The agreed upon price was the best received from a full service company. Cheaper options existed, but I preferred to have the job done professionally and correctly the first time. I appreciated their attention to detail and their desire to know our preferences as opposed to just assuming how things should be done. I'm happy to finally have a trustworthy go-to contractor for any needs that arise in the future.

We had a project manager to work with plus a two man crew who were here most every day. Electrical work, flooring installation and carpet installation were performed by separate crews who specialized in these areas. All of the work done has been amazing. Everyone who worked on the house was professional and an expert at their job. Requests/problems were handled as quickly as possible. They will be working on renovating our kitchen in January and then will do our basement area in the spring. My husband and I are so happy with all the work done. My one reminder to anyone embarking on major renovations to their house is to remember that it is disruptive – noisy and dusty for days on end. For about two weeks I did have to live mostly in our kitchen during the day. Also remember that sometimes changes have to made – so roll with the punches. If I could give them an A+++++++ I would. I will take some pictures and post them later.

Excellent work. The crew was terrific, on time, polite and professional, cleaned up every day. Quality craftsmanship throughout. We will definitely use JCabido again on upcoming projects.

The team showed up on the scheduled date on time and were very professional. They replaced and painted a 10x30 section of ceiling drywall. I was pleased with the work.

We took time off work to be available at the time agreed with the office as this team only works during normal office hours. After calling the office at 1 pm on the same day to confirm the meeting, and rushing to be home on time, nobody showed up and we received no phone calls. This was unprofessional and disrespectful.

Bernard was super responsive and helpful when we had questions. He and his team offered helpful suggestions and worked with us to keep the cost down. Their estimate was pretty close to the final cost and they got everything finished on time. We would definitely hire them again.

JCabido's team was great. They were thorough, meticulous and left everything cleaner than they found it.

They gave me a fair price and did the work as promised. There were a few hiccups along the way as would be expected, but they were very fair about those and stood behind their work as promised to correct any issues. This is about all you can ask for, in my opinion, it is inevitable that hiccups occur on any big job. The important thing is how the company handles them. In this case, they resolved all issues. We sold the house and my understanding is that a problem came up with the new owners and that J. Cabido went back and fixed the problem at their cost. I would use them again.

J.Cabido was the most expensive of three estimates I received, but the professionalism of their quote made it easy to choose them. They did the work exactly as promised, even patching some walls before repainting. I would definitely choose them again.

I cannot say enough good things about JCabido. I was updating several rooms in my house prior to moving in. I laid out my needs and had to supervise the project remotely from another state. Despite not being on site the work got done on schedule and very well done. Bernard kept me updated on the project as it progressed sending pictures and asking questions every step of the way. Our project manager Arthur paid close attention to detail and was able to recreate the looks we wanted from photographs. We had some final work done after we moved in, and the workers were very respectful. I was particularly impressed with their tile work on our fireplace and bathroom, the hardwood floor installation and the painting they did throughout the house. I would definitely use JCabido again and highly recommend!

I did not use this company but got a good impression for customer service and how they have followed up on the requests of information.
