Featured Reviews for Builders in Santa Ana, CA

Sea Pointe Design & Remodel
Builders in Santa Ana, CA
Average rating: 4 out of 5 stars1 March 2014
“Can recommend Sea Pointe w/reservation. The end result was just what I wanted...getting there was somewhat of a financial surprise. Originally, I asked that the master bath remodel be consistent w/other (3) bathrooms (Siematic cabinets, imported Spanish tile). Two walls were taken down to studs and shower stall removed. I had assumed new shower doors were included since shower was torn out and this was a remodel...it did not (+$ for glass doors). (What average home owner would know that shower doors are considered "fixtures" & "fixtures" were not included in Sea Pointe's estimate.) I had assumed that my baseboards would be tile (consistent w/my other bathrooms, as originally requested). Specific baseboard material not identified in estimate (+$ for baseboard tile). Bottom line...stand in front of your wall and identify each and every detail and make sure it is specified in Sea Pointe's est.”
Cutler Construction Services, Inc.
Builders in Santa Ana, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars13 July 2014
“Cutler construction renovated three bathrooms for us, two on the second floor. That included tile flooring (with special materials to avoid cracking), custom vanities, granite counter tops, lighting, exhaust fans, and mirrors, as well as painting. They replaced several ceiling fans, all of our smoke detectors, and added CO detectors. Their work was professional and high grade: no bs, no missed deadlines, no cheating on quality, just total honesty and great craftsmanship. We are extremely pleased and will use Cutler construction in future projects.”
Mr. Build Construction
Builders in Santa Ana, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars25 June 2014
“Having worked with many contractors, I found Mr Build to be exceptional in their ability to communicate in detail about the costs, materials and time frame of the job. The management of the project was very professional with attention to staying on a timeline, workers being prompt and issues being handled immediately to my satisfaction. Mr Build's employees are very respectful, clean and accountable. I cannot say enough great things about the company.”
Pacific Coast Builders, Inc.
Builders in Santa Ana, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars16 January 2017
“Pacific Coast Builders, Inc. (PCB) did an excellent job of turning my single story 2,000 square foot home into a beautiful two story 3,100 square foot home. PCB and its employees were very good at listening to all our requests. They put in extra effort to make sure we were completely satisfied with all aspects of our home, both big and small. They have a vast amount of experience and were able to assist us in making good decisions. We would recommend this company. We love our new home.”
James David Custom Homes
Builders in Santa Ana, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars4 June 2015
“We hired James (JDL Construction) to do numerous projects on our home, including a very large outdoor pergola and several wood finishing projects (including painting) inside our home. We were extremely happy with both the quality of the work his team did and the professional manner in which he and his team always conducted themselves. My husband and I are both perfectionists and really appreciated James's great attention to detail. They also finished within the promised time frame, which I believe is very rare in the world of construction! As a mom at home with young kids during the project, I also really appreciated how friendly, polite, and considerate his whole team was. They were all a pleasure to work with and I'd highly recommend them to anyone.”
DYM Builders Group, Inc.
Builders in Santa Ana, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars30 April 2021
“I've used DYM on approximately 9 apartment modernization/upgrades. Pricing is reasonable, work is excellent and they are always responsive to the unique challenges working within an 87 unit apartment complex. Would highly recommend them for any upgrades you may be pondering.”
Patterson Custom Homes
Builders in Santa Ana, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars30 May 2012
“I have built two homes with Patterson Construction, a duplex in Corona Del Mar and a luxury bay front home on Balboa Island. I chose Patterson Construction after a competitive bid process with many other custom home builders in the area. Both homes were built on time, on budget and to exacting quality standards. I was impressed with the management at Patterson Construction and believe they represent a new generation in custom home building bringing a level of professionalism, flexibility, and ongoing customer support not usually seen in the industry. For example, Patterson Construction's billing and accounting, home specification documentation and warranty binder are comparable to what one would find in a Fortune 500 company, not a local builder. And Patterson Construction's "open book" policy provided a level of trust and honesty that made my decisions about design/construction modifications easy to make with full confidence. And finally, what truly impressed me about Patterson Construction was their commitment to stand behind their homes by providing continued professional, timely support for both warranty and on going maintenance issues long after my homes were completed. I highly recommend that anyone planning to build a new home, put Patterson Construction on their short list.”

Builders in Santa Ana, CA

Dwellify
Builders in Santa Ana, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 January 2019
“My wife and I had pleasure of working with Dwellify on our kitchen remodel in Farmington. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and turn-key process is superior. We were able to meet with a designer to hand pick each detail of our kitchen and customize not only materials but the new layout as well. Then their team came to our house and did all the right things – they covered our floors, kept the work space clean and finished on time. Best service in the market.”
Memar Inc.
Builders in Santa Ana, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 March 2022
“Matt at MeMar is great. They did a complete remodel of our master bath and we love it. Neat, on time, and efficient. Matt was in constant contact, so we were well informed of progress and what to expect each day. Also had MeMar do a few smaller projects, carpet, outside wood trim, and vent install. We were happy with everything and will definitely use MeMar again”

Builder FAQs
There are several reasons why you should hire a local builder in Santa Ana:
  1. Local builders will be familiar with your local authorities building regulations, being able to advise on any relevant permits you need before work can begin.
  2. Builders near you will be aware of the climate of your area, and can recommend materials and construction methods suitable for your area.
  3. Building firms nearby will provide quicker responses and quotes compared to contractors outside of your local area, as they are nearby, they will often drop in to talk to you about your project and view the property.

For home builders, you will usually receive a quote for a building project instead of daily rates or hourly fees. The cost depends on various factors such as the type of job, builders experience and length of the project.

Expect to pay less for a small maintenance job such as brickwork repair or an extension of an existing wall than a new build project such as a kitchen or bathroom renovation and home extensions. After you’ve found a local builder for your project, speaking with them in detail about your project will help them give you an accurate estimate for the work required.
If you hire a home builder for a lengthy project, such as an extension, your builder may charge a daily rate. You can expect to pay around £350 per day for this. If your builder charges this way, ask for an estimation of how long this will take so you know roughly how much the total cost will be.

It is often a good idea to play devils advocate and ask what the builder will not be responsible for. Be wary of unusually cheap quotes.
