CGI Home Solution LLC

new Kitchen and new Bath

Gus returned my call quickly and worked me in to get the job done in time. They are very professional from the top down. The men that work for them are very courteous, friendly and professional. I enjoy having them in my home. I had gotten a quote from another painter and CGI came in at half the price. I would not hesitate to refer them to friends and family. They are awesome!

First appointment they didn't show. Second appointment they sent a representative woman who was not going to do the work but evaluated the extent of services needed and was supposed to get back to me with a site visit but never called.

We recently had CGI remodel a bathroom in our home which was built in 1960. They were professional, courteous, and easy to work with. The proposal they gave for our estimate was incredibly detailed and included a breakdown of each line item, reflecting estimated time to complete the task, cost of materials used and, where applicable, the SKU# and description of the materials (vanity, hardware, light, etc). Gus was great about emailing me and copying his team on any issues they encountered and any questions he had. They quoted 17-19 days to complete the bathroom, and finished in 14. We noticed a few minor issues after completion of the bathroom, and Gus had them taken care of within 48 hours. We would absolutely recommend CGI and will likely use them again for future projects.

Very well.

Power washed tops of two chimneys of mold and mildew, power washed cedar siding on rear of house, power washed exposed aggregate walkways and steps. Adjusted two doors to avoid scraping on threshold. Wok was performed by David who has done work for me before and is a perfectionist.

Removed, repaired, painted and reinstalled French doors. Removed the French door threshold that was leaking, installed a new threshold sealer and reinstalled threshold. Installed a new screened porch screen door that I had purchased. Removed and reinstalled a bathroom mirror that had come lose from the wall. From the beginning, the estimator Eduardo arrived promptly to estimate the job and promptly emailed the easy to read proposal to me. I replied that it was acceptable and asked that the job be scheduled. Gustavo (Gus) came to the job the following week with David to personally see and start the job. David spent the day accomplishing the above work and returned the next morning to finish up a few small items. David is clearly a master craftsman who takes pride in his work. While the job fell under the "handyman" category, CGI Home Solutions ( Eduardo, Gus and David ) are accomplished home builders who bring that level of expertise to the job. Don't bother calling anyone else.

The CGI workers treated each aspect of the build with an incredible attention to detail and respect. ?They worked on my project the same they would have if it was their own home. ?Their work quality was outstanding every step of the way. ?I have no hesitation in recommending them. There were a couple of issues with the permit requirements. ?CGI had solutions in place before I even knew there might be a problem. ?The entire project was as stress-free for me as could be expected. Because CGI was contracted through Lowes, I should add that Lowes made it easy to get my basement bathroom build completed. ?I was walked through the project when I didn't know where to start.

Excellent Service Very good workmanship Easy to communicate with On time Highly recommend REasonable estimate

Israel, Saul and David were the primary construction workers.? They did a fabulous job demo'ing out the current bathroom, installing lot of tile work, building out an architectural shelving feature, and they were prompt and always on time. They helped us decide on some features we were unsure about.? We intend to go through Lowes again and ask for the same guys.

Set up was easy and picked a time to have the service completed. They came on time and began the work. They were friendly and easy to work with. Some parts were a little slow and unable to complete in the allotted time so extra was purchased over the phone easily enough.

As mentioned above we went through a major retailer since they were helping us select the new cabinets, floors, and countertops. A separate review is provided for the retailer ? they were also excellent. Since we were going through the major retailer we didn?t get to meet CGI co-owner Israel Munoz until he came out to for the measurements needed to ensure our new cabinets would fit, to generally get a handle on how to do the job, and to provide the basis for the retailer?s labor estimate. During the initial measurement visit Israel spent a lot of time investigating a number of possible problem areas in addition to the cabinet installation. He took a careful look at the existing Pergo floor and the subfloor in order to determine what is was going to take to create a smooth transition from what would be our new ¾ inch solid cherry wood floor to our existing oak floor. He carefully assessed the area of doorframe leading to our dining room as it would have to be shifted to accommodate somewhat larger cabinets on one side but not so much as to impact the new pantry design on the other side. He assessed how a new natural gas line was going to have to run from our furnace in the basement to our new gas stovetop. We were also concerned that there might be an issue with installing the new floor under a room dividing archway that we previously installed over the existing floor; he assured us that his guys would have no problems inserting the new floor under the sides of that archway. Lastly, he considered how to best customize the selected oven cabinet with our new stovetop and convection oven. Once the contract was signed and the cabinets on order there was about a 6 week hiatus before work began. During that time we agonized over the type of LED recessed lights we wanted. The design coordinator at the retailer selected some nice lighting hardware but we weren?t quite happy with the recessed lights. We met with Israel at the store and he helped us select recessed housings and bezels to our liking. The remodeling effort commenced the end of May. The demolition phase went well but took longer than expected because removal of the old floor left thousands of staples sticking up that had to be pounded flat before the new cherry floors could be installed. This would have worried us except that Israel apparently knew this was going to be the case and had included it in his labor estimate. Next we got to meet David who is both a registered plumber and electrician. David completed the initial electrical rough-ins which included the recessed light fixtures and running 3 new circuits from our electrical box, through the garage ceiling, down to the basement, and back up into the kitchen walls. He also relocated the 220 circuit from our former island location to the location for the new convection oven. The rest of the electrical installation had to take place as the cabinets and appliances got installed so we saw a lot of David on and off throughout the job. We next got to meet Alex and his work-mates who filled all the holes and smoothed out the work areas in the ceiling and walls. Alex and his crew thrn did a fantastic job installing the floors ? we really loved what we saw ? and were sad when they (necessarily) covered them all up with protective cardboard. At about the same time we met David and Alex we got to meet CGI?s great cabinet guy, Eduardo. We probably saw more of Eduardo than anyone else as that cabinet installation was more involved than we ever would have thought. Eduardo needed to do a lot of custom work on the new island, had to customize the oven cabinet to fit the large convection oven and the new stovetop, and he had to do lots of trim work that was essential but which we hadn?t really thought that much about. One area that took a lot more effort than we envisioned was leveling and aligning the cabinets and then making the top surfaces sufficiently flat for the countertops. After the island was installed over the new floor it was determined that the hole in the floor for the island wiring was exposed. Israel called in the floor crew and we were amazed at how perfectly new wood was installed ? we couldn?t tell where the repair had taken place. The wood experts also replaced 2 pieces of wood which we and Israel thought could have a better appearance. Once the cabinets were installed the new drawer-type microware, the new sink and faucet, and dishwasher were installed and tested. At about week 4 the retailer's countertop contractor came in and in one day installed the countertops. The next day David installed the gas stovetop, Alex and his crew came in and did some more finishing and painting ? and at last we were able to start using the kitchen again. We loved everything we were seeing but back during the cabinet design phase, we had elected to remove a valance over the sink that would have matched the one over the stovetop into which the new decorative hood was installed. At that point we decided we were mistaken to have removed it and we worked with Israel and the design coordinator at the retailer to get the parts on order while we went on our 4th of July vacation. When we got back the installation of the convection oven and the new valence over the sink were completed. The oven nstallation was always a worry because so much modification had to be done to the oven cabinet and so much care had to be taken to route wiring to it and gas piping to the gas stovetop positioned above it ? everything fit fine. At the very end we all notcied that some of the duct work recessed behind the crown molding was showing too much - Israel agreed and he and Aduardo did a great job to move it and hide it. Lastly it should be mentioned that we were impressed by the politeness of all the skilled workers and by how nicely they cleaned up before leaving each day. Right at the beginning of the job they installed plastic doorways at the kitchen entrances which were very helpful in minimizing the migration of dust into the rest of our house. All of the cutting was done in our garage which they swept up every day before leaving. Eduardo, David, and Alex were very attentive in making sure they were doing things the way we?d like ? often one of them would ask us to come in and look at the different ways they could do things and give us a choice on how to precede. Every day Israel would come by and inspect the progress and address all of our concerns and questions. We absolutely love our kitchen and have been totally enjoying every aspect of it for over a week now. We are extremely satisfied with the Work of CGI Home Solutions and heartily recommend them.

As before, Gus gave us a thorough estimate with fair prices very quickly, with good advice about the best way to get things done. And as always, his crew was versatile and extremely competent, able to handle all kinds of problems with professionalism and speed. ?They are unfailingly prompt, polite, very fine workmen. I recommend them with enthusiasm to friends and family.

cgi was recommended to me by a very good friend. i cannot brag enough about them!! there was a delay due to a mix up with the granite supplier so, to help make things right, the men started work on a saturday. all the workmen came at the promised time and worked non-stop until time to wrap up for the day. when they left, everything was stored nicely and broom clean. all men were extremely polite and courteous. this is the first time i was doing this type of major renovation and relied on their help in making some design choices. they did not feel this was a burden or asking too much of them. additionally, the job was completed in a timely manner-- 5 or 6 work days as promised. we will be doing more home improvements and there is no hesitation -- i certainly will use them again. also, i plan to recommend them to my friends.

They were amazing! I would use them for anything I needed done. They were punctual, neat, and extremely professional. They worked really hard to find a way to get to some of the pipes without having to add major remodeling to the job. They repaired the drywall and painted where they had to cut to get to pipes - you cannot even tell that any drywall was impacted. They are definitely the company to use for any home repairs or remodeling!

I was very impressed with the professionalism, speed, craftsmanship, and remarkably positive attitude of the team of workers that came to my home every day for several weeks. Both Gus and the team Foreman on the job were exceptionally conscientious and helpful, with a "can do" attitude that was a pleasure to work with. They dealt with changes and additions from me with promptness and efficiency. They were creative problem solvers. They responded quickly to my emails and calls. I was very happy with the excellent quality of all the work they did. They were careful and respectful of my home, and left the house clean and functional every evening. The schedule was met with time to spare, and the price came in to the dollar quoted. Specific extra jobs I requested were also done expertly, and for the price quoted. I intend to use them in the future whenever I have need of a contractor.

We have been working with Israel and his company for over 5 years. We have never been unhappy with his work or the process. He is prompt and takes time to understand our needs and gives us great estimates. The people he uses to do some of the work are great. They show up when they say they will and get the work done on time. They can be trusted to work in our home even when we are not home. Their prices are reasonable. Their workmanship is excellent. Israel is a very nice person and very easy to work with. No job has been too small or too big for CGI. On one occasion, they were able to complete a job in 1 day that included installing scaffolding to repair a two-story high ceiling and that they had estimated would take 1 1/2 days. The lowered the price of the job due to finishing early. I highly recommend Israel and CGI for any household project.

We really could not be happier with their responsiveness, attention to detail, and quality work! Gustavo and his team were a pleasure to work with and are without a doubt the best general contractors I have ever worked with.

Excellent.? The owner really cares about building a long-term relationship with the homeowner, and he will do jobs big and small.? He has experts he can bring in, to do certain special skills, as well as his regular crew, which are very hardworking and trustworthy. ?

Contact CGI to do some handyman finishing work on installing a bannister and railing and the finished product came out amazing. They were timely, professional and on budget throughout the process.

All work was done to our satisfaction!

They were easy to work with. The owner of the company came to our house every day. He was acquainted with his contractors. They were very clean. They cleaned up well after themselves.

They were very professional. We were 100% satisfied with their services.

We have been using this company for several years and I don't know what we would do without them. They came at the appointed time, did the jobs we agreed on, and cleaned up. They charged a fair price for their excellent work.

He made good suggestions. His price was about $7000 less than any one else. It did take him six weeks but, we were not in a hurry. He always let us know what his schedule would be. He is hard working and reliable. I have had a stranger stop and ask us who built our deck and now there is a deck like ours a half of a mile away. This was the best experience in this area that we have had.
