I had a hole in the wall from a water leak that had to be fixed. Based on positive Yelp reviews, I messaged Vana Builders. Vazrik responded very quickly, asked for pictures, and gave me an estimate all within a day. We were able to get an appointment in a reasonable timeframe and Vazrik showed up on time. He performed high quality, efficient work for his quoted reasonable price. I'll absolutely call him in the future for any drywall repairs or other projects.

I am very glad to have found Vazrik. He is extremely professional, punctual, and does a very good job. I am really happy with the drywall he repaired and the painting job. I will be hiring him for any future issues I have. He is very responsive.

My name is Richard and about 4 years ago I purchased a property in Burbank. But my experience with Advanced Builders and Contractors goes back probably 3 years. Originally Nick came out about 3 years ago and looked at our property and gave us recommendations on what we should do to be able to take this old dilapidated property and at square footage so that our family could enjoy it. Unfortunately we didn't listen to Nick and we hired our own architect and engineer. They started with a set of what look to be beautiful plans but then we learned that this was actually a huge mistake because what they came up with we will not able to build and it would be way too expensive. We then hired another architect and engineer and got bids from general contractors including Nick. We thought that the prices of the general contractors including Nick's was over inflated and we decided that we will act as our own general contractor and build out the project ourselves using a bunch of subcontractors. This also was a mistake because we soon found out that the prices that they had quoted us and the time frames that they had quoted us was not realistic and putting together a bunch of different tradesman, that don't have experience working with each other was not smart. The foundation guys and framing guys were not communicating with each other the electrician and plumber and drywallers or not experience enough to take on a major new construction. And so on and so on.  I have to wasting 3 years of time and money. We decided to call Nick again. Just like always he had a great attitude and was very sympathetic to our situation. He explained to us what the mistakes were and how to remedy them. He agreed to take our project on even though the foundation had already started. He brought in his own guys and got busy right away. He redid our foundation and brought in the rest of his crew, this time around the framer knew exactly what to do electricians plumbers drywallers were all on the same page and would communicate with Nick and our architect. When a situation came up Nick would get in touch with the architect and engineer right away to make sure that the remedy would be a good fix and he would be able to pass inspection. Although I thought being a general contractor of my own house and being an owner builder would be easy and I would be able to put a group of builders together. I soon learned that this was almost impossible unless I took off work I put my family aside for about 2 years. I now have a new appreciation for what these contractors do and now understand how many little details there are before you build a complete house. When you can save yourself the trouble, I know my next project I will count on Advanced Builders and Contractors to make it happen.

We had a hillside property that was in very bad shape. Since home prices were up and the real estate market was doing very well we decided to build a new house on it and sell it. It took us quite a bit of time to be able to develop a set of plans and that itself was a whole ordeal because it was hillside and we had to do numerous tests and reports. We have to get soil and Geo reports. We had to get a structural engineer who could give us structural engineering reports and plans. We had to get an architect who would be able to design a modern home. And then after that and getting the plans approved by the city of Los Angeles. We then had to hire and look for a reasonably priced builder who would be able to build this hillside property and the hillside Pool within our timeline. We interviewed five builders and then narrowed it down to three builders. Nick was one of the three builders that we ultimately were serious with. I remember when we originally called him he kept telling us over and over again that he would need all these reports and all these plans before he could give us a realistic price. He put us in touch with the right people to be able to make this project happen. The entire process from planning to completion took about 2 years. But it was well worth it because at the end we were able to read the benefits and the profits. If we had sold the property as is we would barely break even. But because the real estate market was so hot we were able to take advantage and build a new custom modern home with a pool that ended up being a masterpiece. I'm currently looking at another property in the Hollywood Hills area so that I can try to build another modern home. Nick will definitely be my builder again.

Advanced Builders and Contractors was a complete dream to work with. They took our ideas and totally turned them into a dream come true! What I like most about Advanced is that they did things the right way not the cheap way. Everything was done correctly with precision.
This was our first hillside home, and we had no idea what we were doing. Advanced introduced us to the right architect, engineer, and geo engineer, so we could build our hillside pool correctly. Before finding Advanced, we had contacted 5 other hillside contractors. What was different about Advanced is the entire team valued our plans and told us exactly what to do and what not to do for our plans to be approved right away. They passed building city inspections on the first time. Nick helped us through this entire process. He was patient, answered all our questions, and in the event, he didn’t have the answer, he made sure to get back to us in a timely manner. Everything was done per Los Angeles building code and in a timely fashion. We did have a few issues, but Nick always made sure to communicate with us immediately and had a solution to fix whatever it was, so we could stay on time. We also love how Nick never tried to upsell us on additional things we didn’t need. Because of limited access to the property, it was hard to dig the caissons and remove the dirt. That didn’t seem to bother the Advanced team at all. The entire team always was able to think quickly and come up with solutions for every problem we faced. I am completely happy with the service Advanced Builders offered.
It was clear that the team truly cared about our project and went over and beyond to make sure we were satisfied. The team helped us stay in our budget and time frame. Our deck and Infiniti pool look amazing and have added tremendous value to our home. Our friends and family still can’t believe how they were able to transform our old, outdated deck into a modern deck and pool. My husband and I are so happy to have somewhere to unwind and relax from a long day. Advanced Builders has definitely earned our construction business for life!

I was amazed after working with ABC!! It was definitely a good thing for us. All of the contractors that came from them were talented and gifted in their own way. They all had their specific projects to do. There were many different teams that came and went during our home remodeling project. One set of crew would come and do the foundation then another set came in did electrical then another set of contractors came and did framing. Then another set of contractors came and did our drywall. And so on and on it was really great to see the progress on our home remodeling project. It seems like every week there would be a new set of contractors who would start a new project on our home. In the end yes we had to endure some hardships and pain and living away from home for some period of time wasn't easy. But it was definitely worth it to come back to a brand new home. With updated electrical and plumbing and drywall that didn't have mold. And with bathrooms that you could actually use with showers that actually gave you good enough water pressure and with modern kitchen cabinets and countertops. one thing I can tell you about ABC is that they definitely were not the cheapest I think actually the more the most expensive bid we got. But there were also the most complete from beginning to end. Starting with a quote that they give us, everything was included, there was nothing missing and they weren't trying to up-sell us at a later point. Everything that we had asked for was in the original bid. It was written properly and it did included all aspects of what was needed to complete this home remodeling project. A lot of the other builders that we spoke to did give us bids but they were either missing scopes of work, or for one reason or another things didn't seem quite right. I'm sure that they were also honest but ABC was a little bit different because it felt like they would do a great job on the project and would be a full service team for us. It's been about 6 months since we have moved into the house. And it feels great that things work properly, things look good and you can tell that ABC put in good quality products and used quality contractors to put the whole thing together. I have recommended them to several of my friends and you should too!!
