What North County Homeowners Are Saying
5-Star Rated on Google, Yelp & Houzz. What North County homeowners are saying about our bathroom remodels in Encinitas, Olivenhain, Leucadia, and the surrounding areas.
"We had a great experience working with Alejandro and his team on a full remodel of two bathrooms and our kitchen. From start to finish, the project moved quickly and stayed on schedule, which we really appreciated. The team was on-site every day, clearly committed to getting the work done right and efficiently.
Everyone was respectful, professional, and easy to communicate with throughout the process. They paid close attention to detail and made a real effort to keep the work areas as tidy and organized as possible each day—something that made living through a remodel much easier.
We’re very happy with the results and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, hardworking contractor."
Grace Hua, Carmel Valley (via Google Reviews)
"We have worked with Ambar Builders not just once, but twice. We first hired Alejandro and his team to remodel our master bath shower, and we were so happy with their work that we hired them again to do a larger remodel to add a shower to our half bath and wall off a bedroom downstairs. Not only does their work look great, but they have also come back to take care of any small issues that have come up after they completed the job. We really appreciate Alejandro and his team for taking care of us and working with us to achieve the results we wanted!"
Jeff Yin (via Google Reviews)
"Ambar builders are very fairly priced, do excellent high quality work, and do what they promise. Their specialists are very respectful of the property and always tidy up after the work day. The owner always stays in constant communication with the customer. We highly recommend them to neighbors for any bathroom and kitchen upgrades. After having our master bath bathroom upgraded some 3 years ago, we hired them again for two additional shower upgrades and they did not disappoint us. If you are considering an upgrade or remodel you will be remiss if you don’t invite them to give you a free quote!!"
Bob Blanco, Carlsbad (via Google Reviews)
"Alex and his team have remodeled my bathroom, installed my kitchen cabinets, replaced all my doors, installed windows. All of the work has been done very professionally. It has been a great experience working with Alex and his team especially Lazarus and Jonathan."
Patrick Tamae (via Google Reviews)
"I honestly can't say enough about how amazing these guys are! They have remodeled a guest bath, updated our fireplace, and remodeled our master bath! They are all incredibly kind, quick to respond to questions, on time, clean and fast. Not to mention the top notch quality of their work! I've recommended them to a number of people who have all been equally satisfied! Thanks again and we'll be calling for our kitchen soon!"
Lindsay, Carlsbad (via Yelp)
"We recently hired Ambar Building to remodel our shower. It was a little tricky being on the second floor and having walls that were not quite straight. But the work done was exceptional. Easy to work with, very responsive, figured out how to do anything I asked for. I couldn't be more pleased with the results and the whole experience. I have already recommended them to several people."
Sheila (via Yelp)
"Alex and his team did a great job helping us transform our cramped and outdated bathroom into a spa-like and spacious place where we can joyfully begin or wrap up our day. Alex was great at managing our expectations at every part of the project and made sure we were satisfied at every turn. I am truly blown away by how life-changing this upgrade has been."
Cami (via Yelp)
"The quality of the work speaks for itself, but it was their thoughtful approach and excellent communication that really made this project stress-free and enjoyable. Highly recommend Ambar Builders if you're looking for a contractor who delivers on time, is reliable, on a reasonable budget, and does great quality work."
Cullen, San Diego (via Yelp)
"Alejandro and his team did an amazing job with our bathroom remodel! His team helped us turn our old, dingy bathroom into the bathroom of our dreams. Everyone we interacted with was very friendly and always willing to answer our questions. We highly recommend Ambar for any home remodel/renovation projects!"
Robert, Escondido (via Yelp)
"Five stars for Ambar Builders! Alex and his crew remodeled two full baths and a powder room in an early 90's townhome that we recently bought in Fallbrook. We needed someone that we could trust implicitly since we wouldn't be onsite for most of the demo and build. Ambar exceeded every expectation."
Rondi, Fallbrook (via Yelp)
