Stud Construction

When our elderly parents’ home was flooded in April, we made the decision to move to Mission Viejo to facilitate the clean-​up, demo, and remodel of their home as they live in an assisted living facility. Since we were not from the area, I began to ask neighbors for recommendations, but they only had people who did one aspect of the work and we really wanted a trust-​worthy, dependable contractor to come in and handle the job from start to finish.
One night, in the wee hours, I came across a rave review on
for a company called Stud Construction. Well, I loved the name because it is so clever, and I was impressed by the before and after photos of work they have done on homes which were far more damaged due to floods and fires. I decided to start with them, but intended to interview several contractors.
When Andrei arrived, it only took a few moments for me to realize we were definitely going with Stud Construction. His knowledge of handling insurance claims, as well as his ability to quickly put our minds at ease by assuring us that he would be with us every step of the way to make sure our home was repaired to meet our expectations made our decision very easy.
Due to issues with our insurance company and a few hiccups along the way — none being the fault of Stud Construction — our project took over 4 months, but full-​on construction was more like 3 months. We were so impressed with each member of Andrei’s team that we began to consider them more like family. Alex would often break into song while working. Christian always arrived early to chat for a bit and then worked so diligently and with such perfection. Radu went above and beyond in helping me with clearing away clutter and helping with design ideas. Andrei was available ²⁴⁄₇ and literally became like a little brother to me, walking us through the process, step by step and ultimately creating a home that far exceeded our expectations. Kurt’s designs were always right on target for what we wanted and, like Andrei, he was always available to answer any question and help make the entire process run smoothly.
Unfortunately, while our home turned out absolutely beautiful, my story does not have a happy ending as my partner passed away suddenly on October 16^th, just as we were finished with the interior of our home and beginning work on the exterior. Andrei and the entire Stud team were so supportive of me and our family during this tragic time. I will forever be grateful to them. They continued to finish our home and it is everything Alan and I would have wanted. More importantly, they are men of integrity and honor and compassion and kindness. Their skill and craftsmanship is beyond the 5 stars Unilocal gives, but their generosity of spirit and loving kindness would receive an infinite star rating from me.
