Carlos and his crew did a wonderful job on redoing our kitchen. Dependable, on time, reasonably priced. Carlos always stayed in touch with us and made sure everything went right. Highly recommended.

We hired Avila Construction for several jobs: bathroom addition, replacing large windows, removing wall heater and installing pergo flooring. They were fast, on-time and on budget. Carlos and his crew were easy to work with for minor changes. We would definitely recommend Avila Construction for any job needed... I'm sure we'll be calling him for our next project.

Our contact with Avila Construction and its owner, Mr. Carlos Avila, occurred quite by chance, or was it truly just by chance?In the first week of October 2023, we had hired a recommended handyman with painting experience. He assured us that he could get the entire interior painted, including installing crown molding throughout the house, before our son’s visit for Christmas on December 20. However, on December 3, we took steps to find someone to take over the job.A hurried search turned up a local painting contractor who had nine “verified reviews” on Home Advisor, averaging 4.7. We met with him in the evening of December 3, and he was available to get started the next day, which was a Monday. Given the shortness of time and the unavailability of other contractors, who could finish the project by our deadline, this appeared to be a reasonably safe choice.So much for typical “Internet reviews!” This selection brought us the “Contractor from Hell.”After the first day, our cozy, well-kept home had been reduced to shambles and resembled a construction zone. There were small piles of sanding dust and paint remnants all over the papered floor upstairs, waiting to be tracked all through the house, as we were occupying the house. The dust storm was primarily in our master bedroom and wardrobe area where we had stored high quality clothing. There had been no plan to contain the dust or to even vacuum it up before leaving at 4:00 PM, which should have been a “no-brainer” given that we were planning to sleep in the house that night.There was so much dust settling out of the air in the evening that neither my wife nor I could breathe easily and certainly could not sleep. So, we got up at 12:30 AM and worked nonstop throughout the night until 9:00 AM to clean up the mess. My wife continued working until 1:00 PM that afternoon. The previous day had truly turned into an unthinkable assault on our serenity and health that could not be restored easily even days later.In the aftermath of the disaster of December 4 that had left my wife and I shocked and reeling in disbelief that we had let something as stupid as this happen to us, I had reached out for urgent help and had left a message on a website that listed contractors. Carlos Avila had responded within an hour or so, and I ended up talking to him by phone and laying out the whole, dirty, distressing project and our dilemma in getting the place ready for the Christmas holiday. Carlos had surprised me with the warmth and empathy that he had expressed, as well as the information that he supplied. Though busy, he was willing to try to help us get to our goal on time.The happy ending to my tale is that Carlos and his lead painter, Christian, were phenomenal in stepping in on December 12 with well thought-out plans and execution that resulted in wrapping up things by the end of December 17, three days before his goal. This was a perfect example of under promising and over delivering. He met the goal by astutely and effectively splitting our project into two phases, the last of which was postponed and completed January 15-18.Needless to say, Carlos is a master of organization, attention to detail, and punctuality. His crew works efficiently and quickly to complete highly professional work. He takes pride in his ability to accomplish a project with minimal disruption to the homeowners’ lives. We did not have to worry at all about our furnishings and other belongings in the home. And, most importantly, each day after work, he ensured that our home was left clean and orderly, something that we greatly appreciated.We are tremendously pleased with the results delivered by Carlos and Christian, and we are grateful for their willingness to work congenially and effectively to achieve what we wanted. We will turn to them with peace of mind in the future when we have other projects to undertake. Further, we highly recommend them as professionals to other homeowners for whom quality and high standards are paramount.
