My old retaining wall was damaged and needed replacement. I got several quotation and references and Firestone Builders came well recommended and had the lowest bid.

Joe the owner and the staff are very responsive and professional they delivered the retaining wall in a shorter period than promised. On a daily basis the supervisor dropped by to check if everything is progressing in the right direction.

We hired Firestone last year for our condo complex, which was in need of deferred maintenance, construction defect, and life safety repairs. As an HOA Board member who interviewed many different contractors to address these repairs (ranging from architects, structural engineers, and general contractors), we felt confident in hiring Firestone after meeting with Joe and discussing his proposal.

We stumbled across Firestone while they were working on a condo complex up the street from us. Joe promptly responded to our initial request to meet and was attentive during our walkthrough to address needed repairs. As a Board, we were overwhelmed by our list of repairs, what the correct sequence of repairs was, and our budgetary constraints. Joe was receptive to all of our concerns and quickly put us at ease. He stayed within our budget, provided a comprehensive construction timeline, and promptly answered any questions. We could not have been more grateful for his organized approach.

Firestone started work within a month and stayed on track with their timeline. The workers were professional and friendly, showed up everyday, and did a good job picking up the job site at the end of the week. Joe was frequently onsite and always available for questions. He kept the Board updated on any changes to schedule and change orders. The building had a couple areas of damage uncovered during construction that required change orders, Firestone was very reasonable with costs and how much time these additional repairs would add to our construction timeline.

The Board and homeowners are thrilled with the final results. From beginning to end Joe managed the
project efficiently, stayed in budget and on time, and addressed all of our construction needs. I highly recommend Firestone and would contact them again in the future for any other repairs.

Firestone Builders was amazing from start to finish with multiple projects of ours. They did a business build out for us which actually ran ahead of schedule the whole time and they were very responsive. They also did some residential work for us with a back yard remodel and turf installation which again turned out just like we wanted it. Lastly we have a gorgeous garage door that is high quality but the faux paint finish that the last owner had done was chipping of and we were considering replacement. Joe (Who is the owner!) came out and discussed repainting the garage with another faux wood finish first since the garage is such great quality. Amazing work and great communication skills!

We worked with Firestone Builders to do some significant remodels in our school classrooms. The entire process was made very easy with Firestone and the end product is amazing. The consultation in the design phase helped us to find the right fit for our community, and the communication connected with scheduling and completing the work as very helpful. I was very impressed that at the end of the project, the finish work was fully complete. There was nothing that I had to go back and address.

I personally was so pleased with their work that I choose to work with them on a personal project for my home.

We used Firestone Builders when we needed to renovate and extend a part of our kitchen and living area. They were professional, kind and prompt. I knew from the evaluation what to expect and what are the issue that we can run into. They finished the job on time as they promised and I LOVE the outcome. We had my daughter birthday party and got a lot of compliments on the change. I highly recommend them, you wont be disappointed!

Our HOA hired Firestone Builders on a few projects. The first was to replace (8) cantilever style balconies. Their work was impeccable from start to finish. Every detail from securing the area, daily scheduling and completion was spot on as indicated it would be by the crew and Joe. Their workmanship was beautiful. The second project involved a two story retaining wall. Probably more work than they anticipated. Again very happy with the end results. I would use these guys for any complex projects. They have also come through with providing recommendations on other projects. I will continue to build a relationship with this company.

Firestone Builders, Inc., was hired to do extensive structural and cosmetic upgrades to a 16-unit condominium complex built in the mid-1970's transforming a neglected ugly duckling of a building to a showcase property. Joe El-Maasri and his crew(s) were a pleasure to work with, communication throughout the project was excellent, all commitments made were kept. The project was done on-time and within the HOA's budget. I highly recommend Firestone Builders, Inc.
