HCL Construction Inc

I have known Christian for many years now, as he has done a couple of projects for my parents (who live close by to me). The first project was a very extensive remodel of their San Francisco home. The second was a smaller/​partial remodel of a condo that I was living in (though I did move out while the work was being done). Both projects were done nicely and were finished on time and within budget.
My husband and I embarked upon our own remodel of a home we purchased this year (2014). We were kind of taken by another contractor, so hired him to do the work. What a mistake. Our remodel has been a complete nightmare — seven months over due and over two times over budget. I never realized someone in this profession could be so unable to estimate time and cost or be this disorganized. Christian has been incredibly nice, talking me through things and giving me some options during some critical junctures. I have so appreciated it. Why did we not hire Christian!!!

If I could give no stars I would. Worst contractor ever! Liar and cheat to my clients, I only recommended him because I needed someone quick and he was on the job for a colleague/​friend of mine at the time so I thought he would be ok. Terrible decision on my part, workmanship horrible, the only photos I have ever had to photoshop. He low balled the project to get his foot in the door and then jacked up the scope of work by claiming they needed a new roof when they only needed a small repair but he’s a guy with a tool belt so they believed him.
He also takes design credit where it’s not his (typical), the photo on his site should take down, it’s not his design and he never has given credit for the design to the designer nor the photographer, he lifted it from my web-​site without asking. Typical unprofessional attitude on his part and one of so many reasons why no one should ever work with him.

We’ve done three renovation projects over the years, and I am pleased to report we have now found the company we will use for future projects. HCL Construction is the top of our list due to quality, satisfaction and creative solutions. Christian Lind has a great design sense, a huge bonus in hiring him!
Christian and his team converted our old style back of our house and garden to a beautiful modern indoor/​outdoor California living space. We lived in the house throughout the project, and the workers were tidy and kept the dust to a minimum. On time and on budget is a rarity in construction, but we found it here.

Christian Lind and his team at HCL Construction were our contractors on a recent remodel of our home. They did excellent work with a high level of professionalism and honesty. We were living in our home throughout the duration of the project and I appreciated the care and extra effort the team exhibited in keeping the dust from escaping to the rest of the house. We are incredibly happy with HCL Construction and the home they created for us.

On behalf of Sunny Hills Services — HCL is a remarkable company committed to our community. They stand behind their work, show up on time, do more than expected and for us — all for the good of children. Hire them! They are exactly the kind of contractor we all love to work with.
