Make Your Dream Home Come True

We just completed a master bath remodel with Lumina Builders and they were fantastic. The sales/design person, Mor, was the best. As others have mentioned, she communicated with us every day of the job, usually stopping by to make sure everything was being done to our satisfaction. When giving us the original quote, she didn't try to upsell anything -- in fact, quite the opposite. She gave us a competitive quote that we later chose to add a couple things to. And the new quote still came out significantly lower than other bids we received. Before the project got started, Mor met my wife at various shops to help us choose tile and provide her contractors discounts on all our purchases. Both before and during the project, whenever we had questions or concerns, she was very responsive to calls or texts. Good communication like that provides great peace of mind. Alder was the contractor (a Lumina employee) assigned to our project. He was SO great! Respectful, kind, pleasant to deal with and truly wanting to do everything he could to make things perfect. He showed up every day like clockwork at 8am, and would be there till 5pm or 6pm, depending on the work being done. When we asked, he was very happy to tell us what stuff he was planning on completing that day. He checked with us on how we wanted the tiles laid out, specifically where we wanted our electrical outlets, etc. Always very thorough. Another important thing: In a different company's bid, they warned us that it might be best to move out of our master bedroom, while they do demo and work on the master bath. But Mor and Alder set up a floor-to-ceiling plastic zippered barrier between the 2 rooms. This barrier kept the dust and debris isolated, so we could still have the convenience of our own bed, TV, chest of drawers, etc. and stay in our master bedroom. When the job was nearing completion, Mor did a walkthru with us to find anything that wasn't perfect. She even found minor things that we didn't even notice -- or things we might not have mentioned to Alder. But she made sure it was on his todo list, and he was happy to do it and make it right. We just had our final completed walk-thru today, and everything looks great. We will absolutely use Lumina for any future remodels. Excellent pricing, good communication, quality work, and attention to detail. Thanks so much to Mor and Alder for making the process go as smoothly as possible.

Lumina Builders did a complete remodel, transforming my small galley way kitchen into an open, spacious, beautiful kitchen. I had the pleasure of working with David from Lumina Builders. David met with me numerous times before the construction commenced to go through the remodeling plans and to help me pick out materials. During the construction, David checked in with me every day to discuss the work schedule and the work being done that day, and to confirm I was pleased with the progress and the work. The rare occasion when an issue would arise, David would respond by saying "no problem, we'll take care of it," and they did. The Lumina team also made sure my home was picked up and clean before they left each day. I highly recommend Lumina Builders and plan on using David and his team for my upcoming bathroom remodel.

Had 3 bathrooms remodeled and could not be happier. Very professional and easy to work with. My personal recommendation, if you chose to use them, is to request Mor as your main contact. She is the best person I have worked with when dealing with contractors. She will treat your job as if it is her own home. The work was done as committed and on time. If I need future work done, I will definitely call Lumina builders first!! Highly recommend them!

Lumina worked on our house and did a wonderful job with our kitchen! They were always in contact with us throughout the project. We had Omri as our project manager and he excelled in every aspect. Recommend to everyone!

I Can't say enough about Lumina Builders and the owner David and his project managers and the whole team. They came in and made the 60s kitchen I'm living in that was once my grandparents into the most beautiful open kitchen!! They took down a wall, and completely gutted the whole thing and now it's modern, big and open! They're design team was awesome too!! He quoted me about 60 days to do the work and only because it was the holidays so there was down time, it was just a few days more!! They were polite, neat and cleaned up every day before they left! There's nothing in there that I would change!! I've called a few times since to ask questions about things and a few minor adjustments needed to be made and someone came out right away and fixed it, no questions asked! In the beginning I told him my budget and the whole job even came in a little bit under! I highly recommend this company to do whatever remodeling you need some!!

Lumina builders helped us out 4 years after our job was completed. They adjusted some flooring that had shifted over time at no charge. They also offered to correct some pealing that happened in a tub that had been resurfaced. Thank you Lumina for going above and beyond!

We did a fairly major renovation after a pipe burst, and really enjoyed working with Joey from Lumina Builders..........great guy who really cares about his clients, and that they get the best bang for the buck with their home improvement budget. He had great ideas on how to make our concepts into reality, and finished the job on time and on budget. We're very happy with the results, and glad that Joey led the project.

I had the honor of renovating the whole house with lumina, David is a professional, who knows how to give peace of mind during the renovation, the result is perfect and I am so satisfied. Thank you David for making my dream come true

We had a wonderful experience with Lumina Builders! We did a complete remodel of our 1963 home with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. Mor was our project manager and she was amazing. She made sure we got exactly what we wanted. She frequently checked in with us and updated us with information. She has great taste in style as well which was a huge help in our remodel! Admir, Carlos, and Ramon worked on our house. All three of them did amazing work. All three were extremely nice, professional, and very skilled at their job. Also, the time estimate Mor gave for how long the remodel would take was accurate, it did not take longer. I highly recommend Lumina. They will give you what you want with wonderful service.

Lumina Builders Review Once again, Tal and the entire crew of Lumina Builders came through ahead of schedule and with excellent results. After doing our small guest bathroom as a first project, we were so impressed with the entire process that we decided to use their services again and again over the course of 6 months to install a new roof with the replacement/installation of skylights, replacement and installation of new French doors and windows, and finally the remodeling of our primary bathroom. Every step of they way, Tal was outstanding as the project lead and I trusted his absolutely top-notch crew daily in completing goals and there were no major changes or issues. The communication and pro-active timelines was crucial in making everything run so smoothly. I intend on using them a final time next year for a planned kitchen remodel. Thank you again Lumina!

I didn't have anything done to my house but Lumina was my top choice for what I was looking to accomplish. They came out, walked right up to my door and said "I can't sell you anything because it would not be worth your time". Do to some city law or something, I can't build onto my house since the property lot is so small. I am giving a 5 star cause it was quick and he could have tried to sell me on like 50 sq feet but he was just honest and quick. If I ever need something, Lumina will be my first stop.

Lumina builders did a fabulous job on our master bathroom as you can see by these photos. Omri Motale was wonderful as a project manager. He was always coming by to insure everything went well. He worked closely with us to make sure the design was exactly what we wanted. Omri is highly knowledgeable about all aspects of bathroom remodeling. I would use this company again in a heartbeat.

We contracted Lumina for an extensive remodel on our duplex in San Diego – two kitchens, two bathrooms, hardwood floor work, window installs and outside painting. Lumina Builders acted as our GC and we were very pleased with their work from design through construction, and with the professionalism and technical skill of our Project Manager, Joey Dahan! All of Lumina’s subcontractors were professional, timely, talented craftsmen. Joey’s hands on management style, creative ideas and professional contacts in the city made the job go smoothly and according to spec and contract. We would enthusiastically recommend these builders for any project, large or small.

Can't put I words the amazing experience my wife and I had with Lumina Builders!! David was so professional. We have done a complete remodel of our kitchen , two bathrooms and new tile. He gave us a great deal and the whole process was quick , Clean and pleasant ! My wife is so satisfied ( the most important thing) and were are very happy we found this company . I give two thumbs up and highly recommend !! Thank you David.

Alon and Dor came for an initial consult (master bedroom build, insulation, plus installation of ceiling, sliding door, recess lighting, a/c)--we had a rough idea of what we wanted to do but needed a lot of help to figure out what was possible and what would make the most sense. They gave us some really good recommendations and a clear plan of attack. They were also very clear about the schedule of payments and the work to be completed, so we weren't blindsided by any huge costs. Once the work started, Dor was very communicative throughout the entire process and responded quickly whenever we had questions or things to change. The work was completed very quickly (on the shorter end of what they originally estimated), and we're very happy with the final product. Will definitely be using Lumina again for our next project and highly recommend them.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Lumina Builders on a new addition to my home, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Ron Gauzner and his team demonstrated exceptional professionalism, attention to detail, and a strong work ethic from start to finish. The quality of the craftsmanship is outstanding, and the project was completed on time and within budget. Ron communicated clearly throughout the process, ensuring that my vision was brought to life perfectly. I highly recommend Lumina Builders and Ron Gauzner to anyone looking for a reliable, skilled, and dedicated builder. Thank you for making my home even more beautiful!

We are very happy with our experience with Lumina especially working with Eden, our project manager! He presented options for our kitchen remodel, listened to our wants and needs and was flexible with our changes. He stayed in contact throughout the whole process and responded to our inquiries and requests, even late at night and on the weekends. He provided a timeline and stuck to it, which was important since we were expecting a new baby. Now the work, amazing! He took our 1950s house and made our vision for an open concept with a huge peninsula and beautiful floors a reality. We topped it off with complementary decor and we absolutley love our "new" house! Thank you Lumina!

Lumina fully renovated our master and guest bath and installed glass tile backsplash in our kitchen. They all came out beautifully as you can see from the attached pictures. Our Project Manager was Daniel D. He is extremely organize, gave really good advice on the design and materials, and great to work with. Daniel was very attentive to the project and was there everyday to check on the progress. If we had issues, he was right on it and was quick to fix it. The foreman on the project were JR and Osmond and they were also very receptive to all our requests. Also, they were respectful of our request for everyone to wear mask at all times. There were a couple of things that I would like to see improve below. I didn't remove a star for them since Daniel was very receptive to fixing them. 1) the clean up and leaving the trash in our side yard, blocking the walkway. We complained to Daniel & JR several times and it got better in the end. However, I found two filled trash bags in our garage after they left the job. 2) there were a couple of days where our master bedroom was very dusty bec they were cutting tiles in the master bath without properly hanging the plastic cover in the doorway. Daniel and JR were very quick to address this and we had our bed and bedroom furnitures covered with plastic for the remainder of the project. Daniel even offered to professionally clean the bedroom if it happens again. There are still a couple of things that Lumina needs to finish (fix shower due to bad part from manufacturer, additional grout in the guest bath & fixing a wood panel around a door) and Daniel have JR coming out tomorrow to complete them. Our experience with Lumina have been very positive overall and we are definitely using them again for future projects.

I recently worked with Lumina to have my bathroom remodeled. I'd say the after pictures speak for themselves. Omer, our project manager, was friendly and helpful throughout the duration of the project. He is incredibly prompt in answering questions, and makes the process as painless as possible with his insights and knowledge. I never felt overwhelmed or in the dark about anything. Basically, you buy the hardware/tiles/plumbing/lighting etc, and they take care of the rest. It's that easy. Shout out to Jason (contractor) and his assistant for absolutely kicking butt in getting this project done in a timely manner despite some plumbing setbacks (broken toilet, wrong rough-in size, and pipes that needed to be repositioned for the vanity.) Their work is quality, and I've gotten nothing but compliments on this transformation. For those of you aren't lucky enough to have an architect or contractor/construction manager in the family, I would recommend working with a designer or someone who has construction experience. There are certain issues/questions that may arise that someone without construction knowledge may not be able to easily answer or navigate. You simply can't beat Lumina's timelines and expertise in remodeling. From start to finish, they are professional and prompt. If a quality remodel is ultimately your goal, then there's no reason to look anywhere else.

We wanted to remodel the whole house as an investment. We checked a bunch of companies out online and called Lumina Builders. We have an older house that needs a lot of updating just to keep up with real estate values. He (Tamari) showed us how we could get the biggest resale return for our remodeling projects. Lumina Builders takes the time to understand what you really want. He steered us away from a couple of remodeling options that would have been great if we planned on keeping the place. Tamari's crew really did a great job. His supervisor is dynamite. Lumina Builders are a really knowledgeable company. Even better, they know how to finish on time and on the budget. We recommend Tamari and Lumina Builders highly!- Tim

David is from lumina builders was very friendly and professional.they turned my mother's old bathroom into a beautiful and amazing one of a kind bathroom. They came in with a really reasonable price. Did the job in a very timely manner and we're very good with cleanup. I would highly recommended builders they were by far one of the better contractors that I've ever worked with I will definitely use them again in the near future do yourself a favor and give them a shot.

We had the pleasure of working with Ron at Lumina for a kitchen remodel and installation of new LVP flooring. While Lumina's bid was not the least expensive, overall, we felt the most confident in Lumina. We are happy to report, our experience could not have been better. From inception to completion, Ron and his team went above and beyond to complete our project in a timely manner and actually came in under the expected time frame for completion. All of Ron's subs were professional, timely, clean and their work was impeccable. While we did have a few hiccups (no fault of Lumina), Ron was extremely proactive in finding a positive and quick resolution. Ron was always responsive to our calls and texts and never hesitated to get his hands dirty or help out if needed. We are very happy with the outcome of our new kitchen and would not hesitate for one second to work with Ron and Lumina again.

Thank you Lumina Builders and your fantastic team for making our bathroom beautiful. Joey took us from design to the final product and we love how everything turned out. The team was on time, kept us in the loop at every stage, and made sure that every detail of the development was to our satisfaction. Thank you thank you thank you.

Lumina just completed a garage remodel into an art studio space. I must preface this by saying that I have built two homes from the ground up and this was the first time that a contractor and their subs, said what they were going to do, did it on time and stayed within the fixed price contract. Mor was the construction manager, and she is on top of it, always stayed in contact to let me know the next step, easy to get a hold of with a question, their was not one glitch with Lumina. Mor is so professional and knowledgeable, even when we had a problem with a garage door company that "I" hired she was able to smooth things over and get the ball rolling. I plan on doing a master bath remodel this fall, and I will hire Lumina and insist on Mor as my construction manager. Thanks Mor, you are really good at what you do. Cheryl Criss

We have decided to remodel our 50 years old house in stages and we interviewed a handful of companies. We have decided to hire Lumina builders to begin with our master bathroom due to their expertise and good recommendations. Now after the project is done, we can say that we have made a great decision and we are extremely happy with our new bathroom!! Communication throughout was helpful to us as this was our first remodel. We were on the loop and knew exactly what was going on, on a daily basis. Our project manager, Shon, was great to work with and was very responsive to any questions or concerns we had. We are already planning our next project and we would highly recommend Lumina builders to others!

We hired Lumina for a complete master bath remodel after seeing work they did for a friend of ours. Shon was our project manager and was very attentive, was here everyday to inspect project progress, and did everything to ensure we were happy with everything. The crew was great, always courteous, and cleaned up so well at the end of every single day. We LOVE our new bathroom! We would definitely use Lumina for another project and would recommend Lumina to anyone else looking!

My husband and I met Lumina Builders at a home show in downtown San Diego September of 2017. When we looked them up on Yelp, they had lots of great reviews and we scheduled an appt with them. Joey showed up and spent 2 hours with us to discuss the remodeling of our house. We wanted to remodel our entire kitchen and two bathrooms, knock down 3 walls to have an open concept living room/kitchen. We also changed the flooring of our entire house in addition to painting the entire house, added recess lights in living room, kitchen, and one of our bedrooms. At the end of this project (and this being our first experience with a contractor), we were very pleased with the work. Joey is very reliable and responsive to text messages, phone calls, and emails. He likes to work with his clients when issues come up and resolves them. In addition, he beat the schedule of this project by 50% (finished it in 2.5 months). This included his crew working during Thanksgiving and Christmas weeks. We highly recommend Lumina Builders and especially Joey for any remodeling. This is one trusted contractor company that you can rely on and have a piece of mind that they get the job done.

Lumina Builders has my unqualified endorsement, as they transformed our never-been-updated 1957 kitchen and bathrooms into gorgeous, functional, light-filled spaces. Now I'm pleased and amazed each time I walk into one of the rooms. Every part of the process, from design to completion, went smoothly. Tamari used my style and color preferences and wish list to develop design plans that looked absolutely stunning in the 3D computer images, so we signed a contract the next day. He made it easy to select countertops, tile, flooring, fixtures, and appliances by shopping with me and steering me to choices he thought I'd like and that would make the rooms look perfect. Plus, he was always available to discuss the progress of the work or answer any questions we had. He'd come early each morning and then was also available by phone or text 24/7. And true to his word, Tamari made certain we were both satisfied with every detail upon completion. Since I tend to be a perfectionist, I was thrilled to work with a contractor who shared my idea of a job well done. The project was completed a week early and did not exceed the contracted price by even a cent. Again, Lumina Builders has my unqualified endorsement.

We hired Ella and Nico from Lumina builders for an extensive remodeling job at our home, the project involved reimagining and remodeling 3 bathrooms and redoing floors in our entire house. Ella and Nico and their crew were extremely helpful, proactive and creative in giving us a finished product that we are extremely proud of. Much of this work was done in our absence, this added the need for timely communication with us. Ella and Nico were spot on in interpreting and implementing 'our' vision for the house, they went out of their way to overcome any sourcing shortcoming and delivered an excellent work product.

Lumina builders is highly recommended, and very knowledgeable. Quick response and awesome customer service.!

Lumina Builders just completed a condo bedroom redo for me. It looks great and was completed in only 1 week instead of the estimated 2 weeks. They are very professional and know what they are doing using quality materials. Shon was my project manager and kept me up to date on each part. He took my "I want list" and made it happen with beautiful flooring, paint, window shades, shelving, closet doors and lighting. All the workers just came in and went right to the project at hand without wasting any time. Most companies only want to do big jobs and would not even consider such a small request. I am so happy to find Lumina Builders and would recommend them to others. Thank you for a job well done.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Lumina Builders for a complete home remodel, and I cannot express how thrilled I am with the results! The craftsmanship is top-notch! Every detail was meticulously handled, and it’s clear that they take great pride in their work. Throughout the project, I was kept in the loop with regular updates. My project manager, Ron, was always available to answer my questions and address any concerns, which made the process much smoother. I was impressed with how efficiently the team worked. They completed the project ahead of schedule without compromising quality, which is a rarity in the remodeling industry. I highly recommend Lumina Builders to anyone looking for reliable and high-quality remodeling services. They truly transformed my space, and I couldn’t be happier!

Ella came out to provide an estimate for a kitchen remodel and was amazing. She was so knowledgeable about renovation and design. She spent a lot of time and energy talking through what I was looking for and what my best options would be, offering her opinions about what might work best, and walking me through what the renovation process would entail step-by-step in an honest and thorough way. The quote seemed fair and accurate for the job. I received several estimates and would definitely put Lumina Builders at the very top of the list in terms of expertise, effort, honesty, and reasonable pricing.

With help from Ella and Nico, we transformed our 1980s kitchen and living room into a beautiful space. This was our first remodel project, but the entire process went smoothly, and the end result is even more beautiful than expected! My husband and I decided to choose Lumina Builders because during our initial consultation, Ella and Nico were very knowledgeable and genuine. They walked us through every step of the remodel process and made sure to address all the concerns we had. Ella was very transparent about the estimated cost and helped us explore more affordable alternatives that saved us some money. Initially we had a hard time finalizing our design, but Ella was very patient and explored many different options with us. We trusted Ella 100% with the design, and we are so glad that we did. She understood exactly what we wanted. Nico created an impressive 3D drawing of our kitchen and living room before construction, which helped us tremendously with furniture shopping. He also provided valuable insights into the architectural feasibility of our proposed changes. Ella and Nico maintained great communication with us and were very responsive. We felt very comfortable expressing any concerns we had as the project progressed and we received timely updates throughout. Ella and her team went above and beyond to accommodate our last minute requests. Our new cabinets, pantry, recessed lights, countertops, backsplash, fireplace, flooring and more are all of excellent quality and competitive price. We love our new place, and we are looking forward to a future bathroom remodel project with Ella and Nico. We highly recommend them!

We selected Lumina Builders to remodel our small galley kitchen. Our project manager, Mor, was exceptional...she regularly communicated with us throughout the 4 week project and consistently responded to our emails/texts/phone calls right away and took action, regardless of the issue. The work crew, Martin and Anthony, were professional, respectful, and courteous. Stephanie, who coordinated the building of our cabinets, provided excellent service working with us to get the custom cabinets we wanted. Voldemort, who installed the quartz countertop, was also excellent in his attention to detail and his commitment to doing a quality job.

Lumina Builders did a wonderful job with our fireplace remodel. We do not take home improvement projects lightly and we have wanted to re-do our fireplace for years. We read Yelp reviews and decided to get estimates from some of the top-rated contractors. But once we met Mor from Lumina Builders, we looked no further! Mor was prompt, friendly, and professional in every interaction we had with her... Low pressure as a saleswoman, but high expectations as a project manager. She made several trips to our home prior to starting demolition and was always direct in her communication and flexible in her approach to creating the perfect solution for our desires. Add to that her kind nature with our family and wonderful humor--it was a pleasure working with her! Mor chose Alder as our contractor and he did an excellent job. He arrived early every morning and stayed into the early evening when needed. He was careful with moving equipment and materials in and out of the house while he worked and always left his workspace clean, utilizing a plastic dust protection "room" for the entire project. Our project included a new fireplace element for him and he and Mor attacked the problem with a lot of creativity and persistence. We highly recommend Lumina Builders and look forward to working with them again on our next remodeling project!

After interviewing a few contractors for our kitchen remodel, we decided to go with Lumina because they met our price point with the quality of cabinets and material we were looking for. We worked extensively with Mor, who did an excellent job keeping us up to date on the project timelines and with addressing all of our ongoing questions and concerns. In the end, we were happy with how Mor addressed every single concern of ours without reservation. We are thrilled with our new kitchen and Mor definitely made us feel like we were being taken care of every step of the way. Highly recommended!

Lumina completed a whole house reno, and it is absolutely stunning. Amazing. But here's the real reason for a five-star. They didn't disappear after the project was over. There was a rather large issue that came up (unforeseen/unanticipated during the reno) but David stood behind Lumina's work and corrected it - even going out of his way to find the original material that was discontinued. This level of commitment is very hard to find in a builder. Highly recommend!

We worked with Lumina Builders for a complete remodel of our two bathrooms, which were damaged due to a flood. Our neighbor highly recommended Mr. David Lupu and his company, Lumina, and he provided us with the best estimate. He guided us through the entire process, demonstrating excellent attention to detail, professionalism, problem-solving skills, reliability, and guidance at every step. David and his crew were incredible. All of the Lumina workers were very attentive, polite, and friendly. It was a fantastic experience working with all of them. The two bathrooms turned out beautifully, and the quality of craftsmanship was exceptional. We highly recommend Lumina and plan to use them again for our home improvement needs. Thank you, David, for providing us with such an awesome experience. The Braga family

We have been in our house for a little over seven years and being a 22-year-old house, it comes with some issues, maintenance, and definitely needs updates. Didi, the project manager has been able to bring us his creativity, expertise and overall vision to help us get our family room updated. He could completely remodel and update our family room with custom made wood trimming, paint and an area we wanted tiled! Didi and his crew have been extremely trustworthy, kept us in the loop of what was taking place, competitive in pricing and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend Lumina Builders to anyone who needs anything done in their home! You will not be disappointed the overall craftsmanship or professionalism of the company.

Alon was a pleasure to work with! We had a leak in our shower and decided to redo the whole shower. He was faster than promised. Stood by all his words. And we are so happy after finishing the shower, we decided to do a 3D design with Alon for our kitchen to move forward with a kitchen renovation. Alon is super knowledgable and has made the process very easy for us.

Lumina Builders just completed removing a wall between our family & living rooms & we couldn't be more pleased with the process & results. Alon was our project manager & from the moment he stepped into our house for the estimate until the project was completed, he was helpful, knowledgeable & responsive. His communication was beyond all expectations. We weren't sure what direction to go with opening up space in our house, and Alon made great suggestions without being the least bit pushy. He explained the process & associated costs thoroughly. The outcome left our home transformed.The owner, David and the construction team headed by Ros were also fantastic. We highly recommend Lumina without hesitation.

after four bids, we hired Lumina Builders and we are so happy we did! We worked with project managers, Alon and Dor. with the other bids, I had to wait weeks just to get a quote but Alon gave me a quote on the same day he came out. He had some excellent ideas that the other builders didn't even bring up which really improved the look of our remodel. For example in the bathroom, he recommended getting rid of the little wall to open up the space, he suggested upgrading our ceiling lights, which made a huge improvement in the look of our home and there were other things he noticed that even builders who had designers come out did not bring up. Alon and Dor were both very easy to work with and always made changes when I requested them. for example, even though the project was pretty much finished, I noticed a tile in the bathroom that I didn't like the look of he had his tile installer come out and change it the next day.

We just finished our kitchen remodeling on 18-June-2016. We are very happy with our new kitchen. All the people who visited our kitchen gave it a "wow"! Dave and his team did wonderful job. Most of Dave's workers are excellent, taking pride in what they do. One guy was not particularly focused. He was taken out of the job and his work was redone properly by his replacement. Dave responded very professionally to our requirements. He did everything to make sure we are happy with the quality of the work. The cost is exactly the same as stated in the contract, no extra pennies. We will hire his company for any work in the future. Paul and Wenling

Thank you Lumina Builders! We have a beautiful new bathroom. Guy Madar is the best! He communicated daily and was very responsive to our concerns. He has a great eye for design and we are more than pleased with the outcome!

Our search for a contractor did not started well with really high quotes then the lower quotes which looked really shady. Placed our search on hold for a while till I found Lumina Builder on YELP! The reviews really helped, they were local too. Called them, David came out and listen to what we went through before. He was on it right away. The price was fair, they are insured, bonded, etc, and our project timeline was honored. David takes care of everything 🙂 He is reachable at all time (text, e-mail, etc) and makes you feel you are the only project going on, Alex, his main contractor knows his stuff... I learn a lot from them too! Would call them up again for any next project in the future. Thank you Lumina! Our kitchen the Fitz kitchen in the pictures above:)

We just completed a whole home renovation using Lumina Builders. Ella and Nico were our project managers and we couldn't have asked for a better team. Gutting your entire home is not for the faint of heart. Gutting it during Covid while your children are distance learning at home might just be plain stupid, but we did it anyways! Ella, Nico, Alberto and his team made our dream come true. During the design process Ella and Nico came up with ideas we never would have thought of. They routinely came up with solutions to the vast problems that come along with remodeling a home built in 1956. Especially a home that is virtually entirely brick. Brick everywhere...inside, outside....everywhere! The brick posed a lot of problems and the team always came up with reasonable, creative solutions. We lived in parts of our home during the renovation. This was not easy on the crew as they had to work around turning off electricity around our children's school Zoom schedules. They never complained and worked with us around our crazy schedules. The crew was very respectful about the fact that a family was living through the construction. They cleaned up at the end of each day and communicated what the work and schedule was going to be for the next day. Whether it be to expect loud noise the next day or the water being shut off or electricity being shut off. Ella helped us design our home during the entire project. She went shopping with me and helped me narrow down not only what would look good in the space but also how to keep the design flow throughout the entire home. When I purchased items online I routinely sent her links to the items to get her opinion. This part of the design process was invaluable. Our home wouldn't look as nice as it does if Ella hadn't steered me in the right direction for fixtures, hardware and colors. Nico, the ever calming influence of the group:) Nico always came to the rescue. When we ran into trouble with unforeseen problems with gutting an old house, he was always there to provide insight and solutions. One time after a huge headache occurred attributed to the age of our home, I heard Nico say..."It's OK. There's always a solution to every problem." Not only does he say that, he does it. He always found a solution to every problem. Ella and Nico...they were a part of our family for a year working on this project. Our kids, our animals, our neighbors...everyone got to know them and love them. They are those kinds of special people! Alberto and his team were so knowledgeable about the work being done. Alberto was a perfectionist in the work he completed and wouldn't finish the project, whether it be tile, flooring, fixtures, without it being up to his standards. Alberto was always available to help. He even came over last minute on a Sunday to help with a water leak that was occurring in an area of the house that he hadn't even started working on. That's the type of commitment he gave to our family and this project. We literally can't say enough great things about Ella, Nico, Alberto and the entire Lumina Team. We had a great experience from start to finish. As I said in the beginning, a whole home renovation is no joke. It's stressful, it's expensive, it's noisy, it's dusty...it completely takes over your life. However, if you have the right team to help you through it every step of the way and calm you down and do it the RIGHT way, you will get through it and have the home of your dreams. Lumina is the right company to go with. You will absolutely not regret contracting Lumina. And ask for Ella and Nico while you're at it! Thank you Lumina! Our home is beautiful and we survived the whole home renovation because of your team.

Great local company! They renovated our master bedroom and bath. Initially I had a different plan in mind but they offered a better idea which provided us with a better floor plan and more space. The tile work was amazing! Beyond that, customer service was great and it seemed as they really cared about our project. Highly recommended!

Lumina Builders completely remodeled my bathroom after I found I had a leak behind the tile. Guy Madar was the person in charge and because I am from out of state and unfamiliar with the places to purchase bathroom items he drove me around to pick out everything from a vanity to flooring. I'm so pleased with the results. Big thanks to Guy and Alder for their professionalism.

My experience with Lumina was amazing. Communication, budget, quality, craftsmanship, organization, cleanliness and honesty were superior. Investing into an addition of my home was something I've been wanting for a long time and Lumina was the best choice I could have made. It was a large and scary investment; but their knowledge and own communication for my 100's of questions put me at ease. Highly recommend this team.

Nice people

We hired Lumina Builders to remodel two of our three bathrooms and to update the shower in our master bath. Our project manager, Tal, guided us through the entire project from design, demo, build out, to final walk through. He provided creative ideas that elevated the look and functionality of the bathrooms. His crew was stellar in every way. They were always punctual and professional. Tal was very prompt in responding to all communications. On top of this, the job site was cleaned up every day. The job was completed in the time frame given. Thank you, Tal, and Lumina Builders for our beautiful new bathrooms. We will recommend you to our friends and will see you in our future projects.

I am a real estate agent in the San Diego area and I constantly have clients asking me if I know anyone I can recommend for remodels. I can say this from experience that Lumina Builders is everything they say they are and more. I have had the pleasure of working with Tamari and his team on numerous projects for various clients of mine ranging from kitchen and bathroom remodels to just recently adding a 1000 sqft addition to an existing home and did a beautiful job! My clients have all been very pleased with the work and have said nothing but great things. Tamari is very professional, reliable and fast! Not to mention the fantastic quality of work and very competitive pricing. Knowing I can trust in Tamari and his company to handle anything my clients ask for gives me a great sense of comfort. I highly recommend this company. Looking forward to more projects! Thanks

Beautiful full house remodel! Tal was commutative and always available. We are very pleased with the end product!

We hired Lumina for a bathroom remodel, window replacement, and floor refinishing in our 1920's craftsman in South Park. Amit, our project manager, did a great job communicating any issues that arose, had great customer service, and was very responsive. We are very happy with the work and would recommend to anyone looking to do a full service remodel. Some before and after pics are attached.

I worked with Joey Dahan to renovate our guest bath, master bath, fireplace, and kitchen we couldn't be happier with every step of the process. A couple key comments: 1) Joey and the Lumina team were very attentive from the initial contact all the way until the final payment. 2) Joey was also a great design consultant and helped us create some beautiful spaces. 3) The overall price was very competitive and below the industry averages despite high quality and attentive work 4) The crews were very respectful 5) There were no change orders or other hidden costs We have already recommended Joey and the Lumina team to multiple friends and would use them again in a heartbeat.

We hired Lumina Builders to do a kitchen remodel on our hundred yr old house in north park, after researching many companies. They did major structural and foundation work, rebuilt walls and a roof, in addition to the final interior work. We worked closely with the project manager, Mor, who was fabulous! Also the forman, Chase, and his crew were all very professional and communicated well. During our 3-month remodel we encountered numerous issues and city delays none of us could have predicted. But between us all we were able to put our heads together each time and figure out the best solution on how to proceed. In the end we now have a beautiful dream kitchen, even better than we ever imagined! Charles & Paul

We just completed a kitchen/FR/BA remodel with Lumina Builders Inc. and could not be happier with the results! The project manager, Tal, did an outstanding job coordinating the work from start to finish. I think there were only 3 days during the entire project in which we did not have workers in our house moving the project forward; friends and neighbors could not believe, given the scale of the project and the quality of the work, how fast the project was completed. Tal continuously came by the house to check on the progress; he was very hands on and immediately addressed any concerns or issues. We also appreciated that when Lumina bid this project they disclosed their costs up front; their costs were not buried in a total project estimate like the bids some other builders provided. Once the project started we naturally had several change requests, some of which were significant, but we were pleasantly surprised that Lumina was very fair with the additional costs for all of our changes! We were also impressed with the team of workers and their outstanding attention to detail and willingness to make sure we were totally satisfied with their work. The finished result is a credit to their workmanship and skill. The experience was so smooth that we are already thinking of a future project (upstairs) for our house and without a doubt, the only call we will make will be to Lumina Builders Inc.!

OMGosh, I had the Absolute BEST EXPERIENCE with this Company, the Representative of whom was the Project Manager Yedidiah "DiDi"!! I want to add that in the last 7 years, this is Only the 4TH time I was Inspired Enough to Sit Down and Write a Review! What makes this experience stand out, is the Amazing Mix of the Warmest Personality, mixed with Incredible Knowledge. He demonstrated Creative Problem Solving, offering an idea the other two Specialities that have assed my problem had not come up with. I'm awaiting HOA approval to see if his idea is one I can Pursue!! I am a 1st time homeowner, purchasing a condo with a problem that was not disclosed to me, resulting in Water Pouring down from my CEILING! I had NO idea who to call. It turned out that it was the Piping in my wall, and while I had a recommendation for someone to fix the Piping issue, they don't do drywall or other repairs that will be necessary. I logged onto Yelp, and Lumina had Consistently Good Reviews, So I called, and I'm happy I did. It's Nerve Wracking having a Complete Stranger Enter your Home, Trusting in this person to not only work In Your Home, but trusting they will be Knowledgable, Skilled in their Trade, and also trust they are Honest and Reputable. I've heard of friends having Just AWFUL experiences with contractors of this kind, so they could only offer who NOT to use!:) I Now have A Recommendation to Give Others!!! And I Will!! Yedidiah was so Incredibly Helpful, genuinely Kind, I felt Immediately at Ease, and while I realize my project is a small one, He treated it with great respect and importance. I actually didn't even realize that your company has a Minimum, until I asked of the typical projects your company takes on. Oh My Gosh, He made my Small Project seem...Just as Important as an Entire Home Remodel!!:)) So while I've only received an estimate so far, and my project might be to small for this company, I Had Such a Great Experience, I Felt Compelled to Offer My Recommendation for those of you looking for a contractor. I believe Yedidia is a Representation for what this company stands for, which is Excellent Customer Service!! He offered NO Pressure, Just Great Ideas, insights and feedback. He also asked what my budget would be, and offered NO pressure to spend "more" or do "more" but Rather It was clear he wanted to deliver the best ideas with Reassurance he would remained in a price range I was comfortable with. So what I can tell others, with confidence, is that this is who I want doing my Home Improvement Projects!!!:)))

We LOVE our new guest bathroom! The 5 star reviews speak for themselves..... Tamari suggested vintage style black and white tiles, we liked the idea and went with it. The results are awesome, unique, and beautiful! They also did work on the master bath which we are very happy with. Thank you Tamari, David and Sean for making my vision come to life!

I hired Lumina Builders to add a room to my house. I knew from the beginning that the project was very complicated because of the braining was they need to remove and the structural work involved. Because of the value of our house, we wanted a perfect job. The project Manager, Umri and the owner David ran the project very smooth. Everything was done exactly as we wanted it. Their subcontractors were very accommodation and always wanted to make sure everything is perfect. What I liked about the company is the great attention to details and QUALITY. I recommend this company for any project if you really want quality work.

Being a Realtor in the greater San Diego area, having a trustworthy contractor is a must. David is always my first contact for clients needing remodels, renovations, or all of the above. Response time is immediate, communication through the process is consistent and the finished product is always 100%. I highly recommend Lumina Builders and look forward to the continued business.

Lumina Builders did an excellent job on our bathroom remodel. Shon, our project manager was great at communicating. I appreciated that he let us know if the crew was going to be late or absent due to unforeseen emergencies. The crew was very professional, organized and efficient. They did a great job of cleaning up every day. Thanks to Shon, we had no issues or problems.

We worked with Ella and Nico on a pretty serious remodel - turning a small bedroom into a bathroom and laundry room, and combining the existing master and guest bathrooms into a single big master bathroom. This was our first major remodel and I was really nervous but they made it super easy. They came up with great designs (better than we had envisioned) but always deferred to our input and preferences. They gave a lot of guidance in the millions of decisions that are necessary, and I don't even know how we would have figured it out without this. The actual implementation was high quality, on time, and within budget. We were extremely happy with the end result (pics attached). I would recommend Nico and Ella without hesitation and we'll definitely use them for any future projects.

We added on 280 square feet to our house. Overall my wife and I really like it. We had some difficulties, but I think that's to be expected on a project this size. David missed a few things, but he made up for it by doing a lot of extra work free of charge. He works hard to keep you happy. One last thing I would recommend is if you're doing a big project, meet with him regularly to keep an updated list of things you need to buy in the coming week or two. There were a few times where we had to make purchases in a hurry.

Such a wonderful experience. We have met with David at the showroom to brainstorm kitchen and bathroom remodeling options. He put everything in order and made everything to make sense. Efficient feedback that made us change our architects plans. Gave us an analysis on how the process would take place and what to expect in each stage of the project. Looking forward working together.

I've worked with Lumina on a few projects now, and have only glowing things to say. I'm an Interior Designer AND also sell custom cabinetry, which makes me a tough crowd. These guys are on their game - extremely efficient, knowledgeable, precise, reliable and they always follow-through on what they say they will do, which I always appreciate, and which makes all jobs go so much smoother. Best of all, they're all upbeat and friendly so they're great to be around.

Just completed a full condo remodel and I'm very happy to report that Lumina builders delivered everything they promised. My project was completed ahead of schedule in spite of unforeseen delays and a couple of additional changes. Special thanks to Ron, who was the project manager for my project. Ron was very accessible throughout the process, provided updates on a regular basis and was very patient with any questions along the way.

We can not be more happy with our garage to ADU renovation and living room expansion. Our project manager Ron Gauzner exceeded all of our expectations!! He was so professional, creative, design forward and communicative. I could not recommend Lumina and Ron more highly. We chose Lumina Builders after another contractor became ill and could not start the project. Lumina had to save us from an architectural design flaw and worked tirelessly with the original architect who needed frequent coaching from Ron's team. Needless to say, Ron guided us through this project and delivered beyond our expectations. Our family loves our new home! We will only use Lumina Builders for our future projects.

Alon and Dor came for an initial consult (master bedroom build, insulation, plus installation of ceiling, sliding door, recess lighting, a/c)--we had a rough idea of what we wanted to do but needed a lot of help to figure out what was possible and what would make the most sense. They gave us some really good recommendations and a clear plan of attack. They were also very clear about the schedule of payments and the work to be completed, so we weren't blindsided by any huge costs. Once the work started, Dor was very communicative throughout the entire process and responded quickly whenever we had questions or things to change. The work was completed very quickly (on the shorter end of what they originally estimated), and we're very happy with the final product. Will definitely be using Lumina again for our next project and highly recommend them.

Guy, Elder, and Serafin did a fantastic job on my bathroom remodel. Guy was upfront with costs and very easy to work with. They got the job done quickly and efficiently. Guy is great to work with and was easy to communicate with. He was always responsive over email and text. Would recommend checking Lumina out if you are looking for a remodel.

David and his team completed a kitchen cabinet installation and the quality and responsiveness of his team was impressive. They arrived early, asked questions, did a thorough job in a very reasonable amount of time. They cleaned up and left the space so much better than when they arrived! Highly recommend.

From the initial estimate to the final product, Lumina proved to be an amazing company to work with. I had the privilege of having Ella and Nico as my contractors. From the initial meeting and estimate, both were the most professional and organized from the numerous contractors I met with throughout the San Diego area. They brought samples, previous reviews, proof of licenses, all organized professionally. Most other contractors just make scribbles and don't leave you with much after the first meeting. With their background as a designer and architect, they also were able to help me bridge the gap between my initial ideas and the final product. Most other contractors expect you to be there from the beginning. Watching HGTV doesn't make the average person a designer, and having their expertise helped elevate what could have been a pedestrian product into an amazing product. Once I chose Lumina, they helped simplify and reduce the stress of the decisions needed to be made. Remodeling a condo with an HOA is not an easy task. I forwarded the HOA requirements to Lumina, and they helped me fill out everything and ensured all the changes met all the building requirements. My application was approved without any issues. The extent to which Ella & Nico went above the minimum is worth noting. I did my remodel during the COVID-19 crisis. We never delayed once, and the contractors did a great job of pivoting and helping make quick decisions to keep things on track. They even helped with delivery and receiving of final products to help keep me safe. If we met, we always kept safe distances, avoided physical contact and used face masks. Many of the final products had to be purchased online due to the COVID-19 situation, and both did an outstanding job of helping me navigate online shopping and purchasing all the products needed. Constant communication is key with them. I never felt like I wasn't being heard and understood, and I was receiving constant updates via photos, videos, and live walk through via video chat. Ella & Nico's professionalism is their strongest quality. Being my first remodel, I probably was a demanding client, but they never wavered in professionalism and always kept a calm demeanor with me. Hiring a contractor was the most important part of my remodel, so stop searching, contact Lumina and ask for Ella & Nico. You won't regret it.

I had such a good experience working with them! David from Lumina Builders is so professional and I highly recommend working with him! Everything was done on time and in perfect order and quality. He walked us through every step of our renovation and was there to answer any questions or give a solution through the proses. Highly recommend!

I had my parents home remodelled in La Jolla. A 3bd 2bath David the owner worked directly with us and he was super helpful and very professional We are very happy with the outcome of this project Working with David was a pleasure and easy Highly recommended great job!!!

We have done 2 projects already through lumina, builders with excellent value for the services. Always very responsive and able to accommodate our requests. Our project manager Tal has been extremely helpful in coordinating the garage remodeling and kitchen slab/sink repair that we needed. Overall highly recommended and will trust Tal for the incoming house upgrades that we have.

We recently completed a bathroom remodel with Lumina Builders. Although this was far from the largest project Lumina normally takes on, we were treated as though it was. From David and Osman, our satisfaction was the primary concern. When the job was completed, and the final check was written, David’s last statements to us were: “If you have any questions or there are any problems, you let me know and we will make it right.” You can ask for nothing more from a contractor. We would definitely use Lumina Builders again, and would recommend them to any of our friends. Thanks guys, for the great job!!!

Best people Best Team Super awesome response Cant thank them enough for their fabulous service. Would recommend them to anyone looking for remodelling

We were very pleased with the quality of work done by Lumina Builders. We had a 1958 original bathroom that needed to be completely redone. David walked us through the entire project. He met us at the tile store, Lowe's Building Supply and guided us in our selections for our bathroom. We stayed completely on budget, which we were very satisfied with. David checked on the job daily, and gave up a daily update as to the progress of work being done. His workers were very professional, efficient and neat. We are looking forward to working with David again!

Guy, Amir, Alphonso et all at Lumina Builders did a great job adding a beautiful tiled shower to a small 1/2 bath making this a full fledged 2 bath home. The project was somewhat involved requiring #1. HOA Approval. #2. Architectural plans. #3. City of Chula Vista architectural plan approval. #4. City of Chula Vista permit issuance. All this prior to beginning the project. Guy was my project manager and very aware of this and a stickler for the administrative details. I would like to mention that after my permitting was approved by the city, Guy quickly caught something in the plans that he thought could be a problem. He insisted the architect re-contact the city and get a "green light" on this aspect so there would be no problems during the inspection. I was impressed and grateful as this could have been a BIG problem with the budget. Guy was easily available via text so communication was easy. Inspection from the City was handled by Guy and went smoothly. The quality of tile work is top notch.(Thanks Alphonso!) Everyone I encountered was courteous, professional and cleaned up their job site. I felt comfortable not being home. Amir acted as a "lead" for Guy and did a great job. The project started on time and the quoted cost for the project was maintained. I would recommend Lumina Builders to anyone.

I had to have an entire main bathroom redone due to water damage. My relatives had recommended Lumina Builders from their own experience. Everything they indicated was true. While not necessarily the least expensive to chose from, their work was impeccable. My project was not as large as they usually do, but they had a nearby one going, so they were willing to work us in. I worked with Ron (Sensitive Information Hidden), the project manager. He was able to get the project completed in time, and within the quoted budget. It was a pleasure to work with him and his crew. Ron communicated about every detail and did not leave until we were all satisfied. Highly recommend this company.

Exactly two years again, Ella and Nico remodeled our bathroom. We were extremely happy with the outcome. We love our bathroom as much today as we did then. They make a great team and it is such a pleasure to work with them. Fast forward, October 2020 they just completed the remodel of our kitchen. Another job well done. Because we were so pleased with our bathroom we didn't bother to get additional estimates for the kitchen remodel. We knew we wanted to work with them again. They presented us with several different designs. Once the design was decided on, we were able to incorporate an idea from my husband as well. Ella shopped with me every step of the way on all of the major materials. I never felt rushed or that I had to make a decision before I was really comfortable. When the time came to install the backsplash I was extremely concerned. Ella drew the pattern out on paper to make sure we agreed on where each tile would be placed. She was here when the workers started to make sure all the details were discussed and all questions answered. Only when I was completely comfortable did she leave. She kept in constant contact with the workers. Also, she told me to phone her if I had any concerns. With an additional suggestion from Nico, the backsplash is amazing. It turned out much better than we expected. We are completely satisfied with the outcome. Thanks Ella and Nico, a job well done.

Our master bathroom was desperately in need of an update which we had put off dreading the inconvenience and inevitable mess of construction. We knew the basics of what we wanted and I went to work pulling together the design. After researching remodeling companies Lumina really stood out along with their great "Yelp" reviews. We placed a call, scheduled an appointment and the next day met an absolutely wonderful project manager, Amit, the definition of serendipity. Amit had promised he would come by the site every day to check in, which he did. We trusted him and like any construction project there were a few hiccups which were immediately addressed and corrected. His customer focus is amazing. We were pleased with the project as it progressed and he quickly responded to questions or requests. He is a consummate professional and absolute joy to work with. Amit is an outstanding ambassador for Lumina, and we are delighted with our new master bathroom.

We hired Lumina Builders to do a complete renovation on our large master bathroom. Mor Hanson was our project manager and she did a great job. We met everyday to discuss progress on the project and she was always available (day or night) to discuss concerns as they arose. Mor was very committed to the project and seemed personally vested in making sure the job was done to our complete satisfaction. We did have a few issues that came up along the way regarding the professionalism of some of the crew, but Mor addressed them right away. Overall, we're very happy with our bathroom and appreciate Mor's dedication to making sure it turned out the way we envisioned.

We used Lumina Builders to create a 'fireplace wall' in our new home (stacked stone from floor to ceiling with electric fireplace inset below and inset for mounted TV above). We had a FANTASTIC experience and HIGHLY RECOMMEND using Lumina Builders. I showed Tamari a picture of what we envisioned and he mapped everything out with precise detail (including some design features that made it look even better than the picture I showed him). He made sure every tiny detail was taken care of. Lumina REALLY cares about their work product. When the foreman, Sean, was doing an inspection of the final product, he saw a detail that he didn't think was just perfect and insisted on having that piece re-done. They communicated well throughout the project and finished ahead of schedule. The end result is amazing - even better than we thought it would be! These guys really are pros - very knowledgeable, and incredibly nice to work with as well!! A+++++!

After having the most horrible experience of my entire life on a bathroom remodel (our ONLY BATHROOM) that took FOUR MONTHS, I was traumatized by remodeling/upgrading anything else in our home. I hired a contractor on a word of mouth recommendation (without online feedback) who once started, never showed up, twisted all scenarios in his own favor, was dishonest, etc. Let's just say that I was left to be the contractor for almost everything, supervising the workers, etc. You know, all the nightmares you pray won't happen to you when you undergo construction in your home. However our 1928 house was in dire need of a kitchen refresh and we knew we had to do something with a new baby coming in just a few short months. Right before Thanksgiving, I decided to conquer my fear and check yelp to see if there were any prospective companies that could help us. I sorted by most/best reviews and found Lumina. I made a quick phone call on a whim because I got good vibes from the other reviews and Ella (project manager) was at our house for a bid by the weekend. Nothing is normal about our lath & plaster beach hacienda home and that didn't intimidate her. She didn't try and up-sell us, but instead had a long chat with us to discover exactly what we needed based on our unique situation and came up with a plan for us. I was so relieved when she left but of course I was skeptical because of my past experience. The holidays were approaching and she was going out of town for Christmas, but we moved forward and she was able to squeeze in our entire project in the THREE SHORT WEEKS BEFORE SHE LEFT. I still cannot believe it. From first day of demo to the last day of cleanup, three weeks, exactly what was promised. Please know they are not the cheapest, but with my level of expectation and perfectionism I truly believe you get what you pay for. I paid about 25% more than other quotes I was given but in return, I got a responsive, honest, hard working, and friendly project manager/designer/architect in Ella and Nico. I did not have to be in charge because they handled everything, and this hands off approach to remodeling will keep my husband and I as returning customers for years to come in this house and future properties. I am beyond relieved to know that I have these two to help us in our future!

We have had a pleasure today to meet Petra to discuss our remodeling project in 92120 zipcode. Petra was extremely knowledgeable, funny and professional. She is the whole package you wish from your project manager. A wonderful first impression regarding the company and Petra. We haven't decided yet when and who will do our construction work, but because of Petra we have a strong feeling it might be Lumina Builders. Thank you so much for all your time, we appreciate it. Z.

Lumina Builders has just completed a whole house remodel for us. Joey Dahan was a pleasure to work with. Joey very clearly outlined expectations for budget and timeline, and worked with us to adjust and fine-tune both as needed. The weekly meetings during construction were very organized and efficient. Lumina Builders also partners very well with any subcontractors needed to ensure that the same level of professionalism and work ethic is provided. Joey and his team are thorough, and customer-oriented. We enjoyed working with the entire staff and highly recommend them as they are a very respectful and trustworthy company.

After a year of living in our dated Bird Rock home, we were finally ready to tackle a major renovation. We needed to completely remodel the kitchen, two bathrooms, a bedroom suite, plus new flooring and full interior paint. After consulting with several builders, we chose Lumina Builders. From the start, our project manager Oded Friedman was honest and resourceful in helping us navigate a major remodel and the dozens of design decisions required. He has a strong artistic sense along with deep construction knowledge so we always felt in good hands. Additionally, our construction lead, George, was a perfectionist about detail work so everything was done beautifully. We never experienced the issue of "change orders" jacking up the price. The only time we paid extra was when we discovered that all of our old plumbing was rotting. That wasn't part of the original bid so we paid for that directly to the plumber. With every other unexpected problem, Lumina absorbed the cost. Considering that we did all this work during Covid 19, it's a miracle we finished only a couple months late. To keep us safe, they staged construction so that we could remain in our house. For example, during those scary, early days of Covid, we stayed snugly inside an unused downstairs bedroom/bathroom while work took place upstairs and around us. We are now daily enjoying the beautiful look and modern comforts of our renovated home.

100% satisfied and appreciative. We did a complete floor to ceiling renovation in Villa La Jolla. Joey was our project director/manager. I live overseas and we did almost everything on the phone and email. We came in right at our budget and right on time. The design and execution was flawless. I have built a resort on an island and a home as well. Joey was so efficient and very easy to work with. Most importantly Joey took personal care in the project from the first meeting until the final door was installed. Great communication and he even took my mom shopping several times for some of the main components as I was out of the country. I highly reccomend and feel free to contact me regarding this review or company at uluwatuvillas@hotmail.com Sincerely, Steve Levine

Beautiful full house remodel. Tal was communicative and always available.

After contacting many companies, Lumina Builders Inc was the best price competitive for our home project. We hired Lumina Builders Inc for a second story Master bedroom with restroom and closet and a full patio with concrete. Alon R. was our project manager, he was amazing. Alon provided exceptional customer service and professionalism. He guided and explained every step of the process with us. Alon and the entire project crew were professional and great to interact with. All material used in the construction and inside (fixtures) were high-quality; service was quick and reliable; project crew highly skilled; and Alon was trustworthy and professional. In fact, a month later after the project was completed, Alon reached out to us and asked us if we were happy and if everything was okay. What company does that? Outstanding, Thank you Alon for providing us with a fantastic experience.

Last November, I called Lumina Builders for my master bathroom modeling, after seeing their ad on the home improvement magazine. Mor, the project manager, came to my house. She provided her idea of the new layout and her idea was actually what I had in mind. A couple of days later, Mor brought the contractor Sean to go over the details of the remodeling. I was very impressed with Sean's knowledge, I knew I was in good hands after that meeting. From demo to completion, it took just about several weeks. Mor and Sean took care of all issues that came up during the process. I now have a beautiful modern master bathroom and am happy to see it everyday!

Working with Lumina Builders for our 2 bathroom repair/remodel was the best decision we could make, after we made the unfortunate decision of originally going with a contractor recommended by our insurance company (who I hear is no longer in operation due to bad practices). While we dealt with unmet deadlines, unprofessional behavior, and shoddy workmanship with the first contractor, the Lumina Builders team was the TOTAL opposite, and they turned a very stressful situation for our family completely around! We could not have asked for a better outcome with our bathrooms--they are simply perfect. From the very first day interacting with our project manager Shon, he was extremely professional, punctual and excellent with communication. We knew our project was in great hands, and he seemed very caring and determined to help us complete our project in time, so we could move our family back home. The foreman he appointed, Marco, was equally professional and easy to communicate our design preferences with. The plumber, electrician, and shower door installer they hired were top notch as well. I highly recommend Lumina Builders, especially with Shon as the project manager, and I would not hesitate to work with them again for any future home improvement projects.

I reached out to Lumina Builders for a licensed contractor and believe it or not, the owner in the next 10 minutes was at my location to hear my project. He was so flexible that he started the project within next 48 hours to accommodate my timeline and he did an fantastic job which was above and beyond my expectations. I would highly recommend Lumina Builders for all kinds of home improvement work, they are reliable, fast, professional & above all cost effective. Excellent Job .

Best service I have had! Other I would contact would go around my questions or just plain out never return my calls. David was very attentive and cared about my remodel. He helped me every step of the way and would answer my many questions without hesitation. He was very honest with what was required for my remodel. He even went out of his way to assist me in selecting the perfect materials for my vision. He was also able to beat the prices of the companies that did actually calm me back and provided a quote so that was a very big plus! All said and done, my kitchen is beautiful and they made our remodel a breeze. Thank you!

Kitchen Remodel: I worked with my Project Manager Tal Borin. He was professional, thoughtful, and always did what he said he would do. He has good taste and was very helpful in helping to decide colors and tones for the rooms. He suggested little design tweaks that I would have never thought of. From the initial consultation, he was patient and clearly explained how the process works: - he comes in with his designer to gather input and discuss various options - they come up with a 3D CAD design to work out any issues - once we agree on the design, they order they materials and schedule the work crews to come in The entire process took about 10 weeks start to finish. Tal was in constant contact the entire time. Anytime a small issue cropped up, he took care of it right away. The quality of the workmanship is outstanding. The tile flooring and cabinets are especially well done. See the pictures!

We are very happy with the quality of the work done on our remodel which included the kitchen, laundry room, living room, office and fitness room. The Lumina project manager, Tal Borin, was very professional and responsive. He also brought many great ideas to project which improved the outcome in many areas.

Two years ago, we purchased a house that needed some updating, so we went looking for a reliable contractor. Based on family recommendations, we chose Lumina Builders to help us with the updates in our home. We were looking to have walls moved, bathroom remodeled, convert a laundry room into a wet bar and have some other things done. We worked with Mor who was our project manager. She was very knowledgeable and helpful with our needs. We appreciated that the pricing for what we needed was competitively priced and the quality of work exceeded our expectations. During any of the jobs, the contractors advised us on small improvements to make the overall finished job even better. I cannot express how rare this combination of attributes is. Over multiple projects, we have been very pleased with Lumina Builders. We are fans for life.

With a move planned to Pacific Beach, we decided to renovate our existing rental town home -- kitchen, baths -- to full time retirement living. We found Lumina via Yelp and I have to say that the experience has been every bit as good as the reviews here would indicate. The interaction with Tamari has been great as we worked together to plan our project from start to finish. He has provided excellent input and the professionalism and attention to detail is top notch. Lumina offers a variety of quality options depending on your pocketbook, from cabinetry to tile. We highly recommend talking with Lumina to anyone planning a home renovation project. Quality workmanship, follow through, accuracy and customer service are critical in a contractor. You will find all at Lumina.
