“He also installed a new cable railing on our stairs and removed a half wall with a matching railing, all of which came out beautiful. He is great to work with, gave honest feedback on a few issues he found when he ripped up the carpet which we appreciated, was punctual and friendly. 100% recommend!”

“Max explained complete procedure thoroughly in an understandable manner. He listened well to what we wanted and succeeded in accomplishing our needs. He is calm, pleasant and easy to talk with. The railings were completed and installed within 2 weeks. I highly recommend Ramirez Iron for your projects.”

“Adam is an artist and a pleasure to work with! He helped with the design of our custom 15-foot railing at the front of our home. He built it on-site and had great ideas for its design. He had it powder coated in a beautiful bronze finish I selected so it will be maintenance free. He installed it a full week ahead of schedule and we are thrilled!”

“We are very happy with the new bathrooms! Whoever visited our home recently have been saying, “Wow!” Job well done!!!”

“His painting skills are also really great, I couldn’t even tell he used a paintbrush to paint the trim. I would highly recommend them for any wood work you need done.”

“We engaged with Terranova to remodel the kitchen and two bathrooms in our loft in SF. My wife is a commercial interior designer with exacting standards for design and quality of work. It was a fairly complex and, at times, challenging, project, including a kitchen from FORM, with which the Terranova team did not have previous experience.Overall, the Terranova team did a good job. We are happy with the results they delivered. A few little things came up post-completion, which Steven and team resolved quickly and to our satisfaction. Terranova's one-year warranty for their work is definitely reassuring, as is knowing that they won't disappear after the last invoice is paid.Positives:The project was finished on time and on budget.Communications were very good, with informative from-the-site explanations of challenges and questions via pictures and videos.The quality of work was very good, with some real excellent craftsmanship in construction, cabinetry and flooring. Some of the work, like bathroom tiling, was downright superb.The team came up with many creative solutions to challenges that arose along the way and delivered solid execution on the chosen options. This team has a wealth of knowledge about functionality of things, which came in handy for merging design and function to create numerous great outcomes.The team excelled in working with the kitchen manufacturer (FORM) to assemble and install a complex kitchen. And came up with a creative under-the-floor electrical wiring for the island with minimal work and no trace on the floor after completion. Beautiful work.Steven's connections with outside vendors were super helpful as we needed a few custom-made items like doors and jambs. The quality of those items was very good.The work site and the common hallway in the building were kept clean and organized. The hardwood floor was well protected, escaping with only a few minor dings.What could have been better:The main thing is that crystal-clear communications is a MUST. If you have a very specific vision for your project, explain clearly, then repeat, then check. Mark it up on the spots. Avoid any ambiguity and don't leave anything un-spec'd. These guys are excellent with their hands, but they're not designers. Understand that fact, don't leave anything to "creative interpretations", and your creative vision will be faithfully brought to life. Exact locations of fixtures, exact tile layouts, exact sizes of things. Of course, if you're less picky, their solutions will be completely satisfactory to a design layman; just not to an award-winning interior designer.We did need to ask/remind the team to better protect (cover up) surfaces like floors, walls and installed cabinets. Nothing got damaged, but better safe than sorry.Bottom line: would hire again, keeping in mind our own advice above. Thank you, Terranova team! Enjoying our upgraded spaces.”
