We chose to work with HDR to bring to life a wonderful design that added character to our lovely but minimalist home. HDR was organized, thoughtful and easy to work with. That organization and their desire to please was consistent throughout. HDR made living through the project much easier than anticipated, with an attention to cleanliness and steady communication. They quickly worked through issues and were always available to make any corrections needed. The project transformed our home into a charmer that leans into its best aspects. I would highly recommend working with HDR.

We've had the opportunity to work with HDR Remodeling on various projects. And we've been so impressed with their work, their professionalism, and their commitment to making the customer happy, that when we moved to a new home, we used them again. In particular, we just called them to address an issue that had arisen with a patio door they had installed two years ago. Within a day, they responded, sent someone out to fix the issue, and then followed up to see if we were satisfied. This is consistent with how our experience has been with them. Even when work on the project was completed long ago, they still made sure to address any issues that arose. We highly recommend HDR to anyone in need of remodeling work or anything else they do!

HDR was truly an amazing company to partner with on our home addition project. They were on time, on schedule, and on budget - super rare in this space. The design is exactly what we envisioned and couldn't have been better, and the build team executed it to spec. The addition is top quality and we are so thrilled with it!

HDR helped us remodel our kitchen and two bathrooms. They were extremely professional and responsive throughout the whole process and did a beautiful job. They are a design-build firm meaning that they handle everything in-house - they employ both the architects and the contractors. They project manage everything. The whole schedule, all parts, all subcontractors, are all handled for you.
Our architect, Milton, was great to work with - very responsive to our needs and vision for what the spaces should look like. He did a lot of research for us and always presented various options for how to accomplish the look we wanted - and at various price points. He helped us make all the big and small design decisions. Our contractor, Alberto, was amazing. We met weekly to review progress and answer any questions. Any problems we noticed or things we wanted changed were handled promptly. Even our neighbors noticed how prompt and hard-working our crew was. These are not the typical contractors where you mentally double the estimates they give you for project completion. They estimated 4 months for our project and finished 2 weeks early.
I think you pay a premium for such a high-touch service and so you may take the gamble for someone cheaper who may or may not be as reliable, honest, or hard-working. But if you want the peace of mind for a project that will be on time, on budget, and high quality, HDR is a great option. I highly recommend them!

When we were ready to remodel our home, we interviewed 3 contractors with the intention of redoing our kitchen and two bathrooms down to the studs, plus additional upgrades to the rest of the house and garage. After meeting with Kevin, we decided without hesitation to go with HDR. He clearly spelled out their process and we liked their approach, a design/build firm that takes care of everything (design consultation, plans, permits, construction) -- the other contractors expected us to find and hire an architect and get the permits.
When things got underway, we had the pleasure of working with HDR’s architect, Milton, who patiently developed the plans always mindful of our wishes, making recommendations where appropriate. Once construction started, the team, led by our Project Manager, Julio, proved to be a no-nonsense outfit, staying very focused and busy throughout construction. Julio was crafty, coming up with great solutions when things seemed complicated, coordinating with the subs, trying to keep things on schedule. Not surprisingly, there were some frustrations along the way, delays with the permits, a few hiccups coordinating with subs, but HDR quickly addressed things. We also assumed they would discover some issues during construction, as our 71 yr.-old home had more than its share when we purchased it. This is where Alberto, the Production Manager, was particularly helpful. Whenever an issue arose, he stepped in and explained things clearly and made recommendations, frequently pointing to long-term benefits and efficiencies. Alberto was indispensable from beginning to end!
To sum it up, we are so happy to have hired HDR. They were responsive and skilled, from Cindy in the front office to all the guys and subs who worked hard to leave us with a beautiful end product. They did the work “the right way,” never cut corners, strictly adhered to best practices, as noted by the Berkeley inspections, and it shows! Importantly, they listened to us whenever we had a concern (another shout-out to Alberto, Julio, Milton, Kevin, and Chris!), and transformed a “funky” house into our “new,” comfortable, beautiful home! Thanks to everyone at HDR!
