Wise Builders - San Jose, California

Matthew R.

This was our first remodel and the reviews for Wise Builders looked good – professional and well managed.
Project manager Marc and the whole crew exceeded our expectations.
Our bathroom was stripped down and rebuilt after long term leakage destroyed the floor. Now it looks awesome, could not be more thrilled about the final results.
Marc kept us up to date on the work being scheduled, and the work was done to the highest standard. I felt completely supported with Marc and his collaborative style, he worked with us all the way from start to finish.
I’m still admiring the neatness and details that were finished in every part of the room.
Cleanup during after the job was completed was perfect. The entire crew were superb, polite, hard working and very efficient.
Definitely will come back again when I need more work done.

After getting 5 quotes from contractors to complete
major renovations to our newly purchased home, we went ahead with Wise Builders because they had
the best combination of knowledge, professionalism,
honesty and cost. We are so glad we went with them
because the entire process went very smoothly and everything looks great.
We worked with Michele Crawford as our designer and project manager.
She assured us from the beginning that she would manage the entire project and will make sure that we would be able to move in by our deadline (in six weeks). She kept her word, and her team worked hard to ensure that we were able to move in as promised. We did a full bathroom remodel, two fireplaces removal and renovation, whole house painting, demolished existing flooring and installed new hardwood floors, installed new recessed lighting (around fifty five) and removed some shutters off the wall, some major drywall repair.
Michele Crawford was amazing!
She was timely, very organized, and eager to solve any minor/ major obstacles.
She worked with us closely & listened to us and helped us procure all the raw material needed for the remodel.
In general, we had great dialogue about design choices plus materials. In terms of project management she was very proactive and responsive.
She was extremely professional, and a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process. She kept us informed every step of the way and was always available to answer any questions we had.
We had read great reviews about her and we had specifically requested for her to manage our project and we are so glad that we did.
Thank you Wise for putting her on our job.

The entire crew was very responsive, which is simply a major help in keeping the project on track.

The construction crew led by Tony and Daniel did an amazing job with the craftsmanship.
Tony did an amazing job with the recessed lights layout and install. He was so patient and showed us various lighting options and has a great design sense.
Daniel and his team did a great job with fireplace layout and whole house painting and flooring. Daniel was very patient and offered great solutions and gave very sound and practical advice.

The entire crew was polite, hardworking, and paid close attention to the details to ensure the final result was exactly what we had envisioned. The quality of their work is simply outstanding.

As expected with this magnitude of work there were some hiccups along the way. However each and every issue was taken care off.
Wise also contacted us few times to ensure that everything was going as per our expectations and asked for constant feedback.
The renovation was completed on time and the end product is better than we could have hoped for. My daughter is very thrilled with her new bathroom.We would highly recommend Wise Builders to anyone considering a home renovation project.
Wise Builders was a great choice for us.

I have the pleasure of working with Nathan from Wise Builders, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with this experience. Nathan is incredibly easy to work with and always accommodating, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. His professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to client satisfaction truly set him apart. I personally interviewed over 12 general contractors and decided to go with Wise Builders because I knew that I could trust Nathan. When our cabinets arrived, he found small details that needed to get fixed and quickly contacted the vendors to get things fixed for us. His attention to details is what sets him apart from other contractors. His crew, led by Mario, has worked quickly and efficiently. I would highly recommend Nathan and Wise Builders to anyone in need of a reliable and skilled general contractor!

I received proposals from two Chinese and two American remodeling companies and ultimately chose Wise Builders, even though they weren’t the cheapest. The deciding factor was the project manager, Marc Mata. From our first meeting, he was extremely attentive, courteous, and professional, much more so than the others. He thoroughly explained the process, Wise Builders’ capabilities, and helped me create a rough budget.

From day one, Marc ensured everything went smoothly and to my satisfaction. My kitchen had an oddly shaped pantry, and Marc and Michelle, who specializes in measurements, worked closely with my chosen cabinet manufacturer to ensure the dimensions/angles were accurate. Marc also brought in Mario, the lead, early on to assess the scope of work and discuss options.

One standout feature of Wise Builders was their willingness to help with material selection, from tiles to faucets, flooring to countertop, without pressuring me to buy from their source of suppliers. I was free to shop around, and Marc was always available to confirm measurements and ensure everything would work in my home.

Marc’s communication was exceptional. He consulted with me on numerous decisions, such as flooring orientation, bathroom tiling patterns, and drawer pull placements, often providing pictures to help us visualize. While my family was abroad for two weeks, Marc kept us updated with progress pictures.

I also appreciate Mario, the lead/foreman, who saved me from a major mistake. I had unknowingly purchased a high-end shower system with no cold water - the coldest being 75F. After Marc and I were told (from the manufacturer) it couldn’t be fixed, Mario took the initiative, adjusted the system, and got both hot and cold water working!

Overall, the experience exceeded my expectations. Marc, Mario, and the entire team—Luis, David, and others—were all professional and dedicated to ensuring our home was perfect. They went out of their way to ensure we were happy. I can’t thank them enough. Thank you, Wise Builders!

We have our dream bathroom thanks to Marc Matas and his crew! Marc walked us through every part of the process, and helped us weigh pros and cons of various choices without pressuring us. We even had a few design changes (on my end) near the end of the remodel and they took everything in stride to deliver a beautiful end product. We have been living with the bathroom for about a month now and I am still not over it - highly recommend Marc and his team!

We recently had full kitchen, living room and bath room remodeled. From the very beginning, Michele had been providing us a lot of useful information and working eagerly with us to meet our requirements and budget. When the project started, Michele managed it flawlessly and kept us updated with every detail. The crew was fantastic and professional, also very polite and tried their best not to disturb our daily life.
The design was also done by Michele, and the result can be used for any show room, truly showing her talent and reflected our expectation perfectly.
If you want a worry and stress free experience with exceptional results, Wise Builders is the company that you should use. Highly recommend.

We are very excited to embark on a full kitchen remodel and additional work with Wise Builders. From the moment I met with Aaron, our assigned project manager, his team and the company felt like a safe choice. Having been "burned" by a previous contractor on a past project, it was important to us that we felt that trust established from the beginning. When I spoke with past clients that had used Wise prior to our project, so many great things were said about the company, the quality of work, and specifically how amazing and detailed Aaron was throughout the project! Even though we have only just begun the process, I trust that it will be finished fabulously and I will be writing another glowing review in just a short while!

It has been a delight to work with Wise Builders on the remodeling of a large primary bathroom. I have worked with architects and general contractors on several remodeling projects as well as on a custom house development and I have to say that Wise Builders is at the top of the list when it comes to high-quality, meticulous, and customer-focused work.

From day one, our Project Manager, Nathan G., has gone the extra mile to ensure quality in every aspect of the project across concept development, through design, material selection, and execution. We have greatly appreciated the interactions with Nathan and the whole Team including the project architect, Roni, and lead contractor, Mauro. The approach has been highly collaborative and Nathan makes sure to work with us on the options selection, sequence of work, and keeping us up-to-date on the progress.

The Team has been extremely resourceful and I highly value the expertise, mastery, and excellence that each member of the Team brings to the project.
