Thank you Danny and Debta and your amazing crew.

Thanks Danny & 1st choice builders! We recently completed a full house renovation with Danny & Debra: bathroom, kitchen, floor, recessed lighting, subpanel, fireplaces, and structural work too. We are happy with their attention to detail and effort on our home. They took care of everything, including the pesky permit issues in addition to working with a less-than-satisfactory structural engineer (we should have just went with Danny's engineer to begin with!). Their team is very straight forward in getting things done, being honest on what is possible or not possible. In addition, the price quoted was just as promised.
We now live in our dream home!

I would highly recommend 1st Choice Builders to my friends! We hired 1st choice builders for major remodeling of our house (2 full bath and full kitchen). Danny was very responsive every step of the way, for all the small polish requests. His team (Roberto and Hector) provided us high quality craftsmanship throughout the construction. We are happy with our results and, because of Danny's team, we were able to complete our remodeling during the inventory crisis safe and sound.

Danny's a bit intimidating when you first meet him, but he's actually a great guy with a sense of humor. Danny and Debra are direct, transparent, honest, and very responsive. Hector and his team worked on our house, and they're also very experienced and work extremely fast. We're very happy with the end result, and especially impressed with the cabinet maker and countertop fabricator. Our stove took almost a year to arrive, and Danny still made sure people came back to help install it. Danny even hired a photographer and shared the pictures with us.
some extra tips for those remodeling for the first time.
- renderings help a lot! the workers work extremely fast, so if you're unable to be there frequently, they will go off your renderings
- if you're going for the flush look with your appliances, make sure the crew knows ahead of time as it's very important where the outlets and gas pipes are positioned.
- be sure to let them know your paint texture ahead of time. we're not fans of orange peel, and if you can't do smooth, old world "light" is a nice alternative.

Working with Debra and Danny was a great pleasure during our large renovation project which was a complete gut-job on our old house. Things went off without a hitch. We had done our research on several companies, settled on 1st Choice Builders and were extremely pleased with their process and beautiful results. They were patient, detailed oriented and did fantastic quality work, going the extra mile and delivering creative solutions in times where and when needed.
Our project lead exceeded every expectation and made us feel secure through the transformative and high stress time.
Communication was excellent throughout the process. Things were explained in detail and we could sleep well at nights, knowing where things were at, at all times through their updates.
They had great tasteful ideas in places where choices could be made and executed on budget, on time and with excellent results. We will absolutely recommend 1st Choice Builders to anyone looking to renovate their space.

Can't thank you enough guys! I must say I had a lot of experience with construction companies in my life and almost each and every one of them failed me and my family.
After hiring 1st Choice to renovate my house in Wilton Ave in Palo Alto I had absolutely no doubt that 1st choice Builder will be my 1st choice when I wanted to build my 4000sqf house in Ravensbury ave in Los Altos Hills.. so I did and it was the best decision I made.
I can't thank you enough guys! Danny is an the best and he knows better then most how to treat clients when it comes to costumer service and communication!
They work clean, fast and efficient. They gave attention to the little details (my wife Natalie is crazy when it comes to details!), they have a solution to any issue that comes up on the plans and with the city.

Why Kitchen Remodel?
Benefits of Building Beautiful Kitchen in The Bay Area
Remodeling your kitchen is a smart investment that can enhance both the functionality and aesthetics of your home. A well-designed kitchen not only improves daily living by providing a more efficient and enjoyable cooking space but also adds significant value to your property. Whether you're looking to create an open-concept layout, update outdated appliances, or simply refresh the look with modern finishes, a kitchen remodel can revitalize the heart of your home.
Enhanced Functionality
A kitchen remodel can greatly improve the functionality of your space. With well-thought-out designs and layout changes, you can optimize the use of your kitchen, making it more efficient and convenient for cooking, entertaining, and everyday activities.
Increased Home Value
Kitchen remodels are one of the most cost-effective ways to increase the value of your home. A modern, stylish kitchen can significantly boost your property's resale value, making it an excellent investment for homeowners.
Increased Energy & Water Savings
Modern kitchen appliances and fixtures are often more energy-efficient than older ones. A kitchen remodel provides an opportunity to upgrade to energy-efficient appliances, lighting, and insulation, helping you save on utility bills and reduce your environmental footprint.
Improved Aesthetics
A beautiful kitchen can be the heart of your home. Through remodeling, you can transform your kitchen's appearance, choosing styles, colors, and materials that match your taste and the overall design of your home.
Enhanced Safety
Older kitchens may have outdated wiring, plumbing, or hazardous materials. A kitchen remodel allows you to address safety concerns by updating these essential components, making your kitchen a safer place for your family.
Eliminate Inconvenience
An awkward layout is hard to work in. It might be too small or cramped, maybe you can't even open certain cabinets if a drawer is open, either way you need a new layout. This can be fixed with when you hire the right kitchen contractor! We will reconfigure your layout, add storage and lighting, create a pantry area and update appliances. You would be happy you did.
