We are very happy and truly amazed with the extensive restoration and remodel provided by Cornerstone Property Services that was completed in April 2015. Our 2 downstairs bathrooms and foyer closet were completely rebuilt by Cornerstone. We had contacted 3 other construction companies to obtain estimates on this project and decided to proceed with Cornerstone based on their reputation for quality work, reasonable price, and their outstanding customer reviews. While another full-service company was recommended by our homeowners insurance, we found that the volume of local reviews for Cornerstone and their responses to our questions were clearly superior. Once the water remediation and air quality testing was completed by the original company recommended by our insurance company, we started to obtain reconstruction estimates for our home in Fountain Valley, CA. Then, after a reality check on the cost and time required to properly rebuild those rooms, we decided to re-pipe our home before proceeding with the reconstruction. Having an older home with copper pipes laid into the concrete slab and having had to reroute a hot water pipe 2 years ago in our kitchen due to a slab leak, it was the logical choice to re-pipe before attempting the 2 bathroom rebuilds.
We had Ameri-Cal Repipe & Plumbing do the full house re-piping because that was their specialty and we were still interviewing construction companies for the full rebuild at the time. Ameri-Cal did an excellent job I am happy to say. By the time the re-piping was done, we had a tentative shopping list of the materials that we wanted for the rebuild of the 2 bathrooms and foyer closet. Steve Cederquist and his staff at Cornerstone helped us refine the list and keep the project within our budget. After I signed the construction contract, Cornerstone started the project the following week and that start date was ahead of schedule. During the project, his supervisors and work crew provided good communication and care in working through each phase of the project and keeping the worksite cleaned up on a daily basis. We had porcelain wood-like floors installed, new electrical switches & circuits, a new ceiling mounted Air-King heater, fan, & light combo, new composite bathtub, new subway style tiles in the guest bathroom, new curved bathtub shower rod, new master bath shower pan, new shower drain trap, hot mop for the shower pan, new shower tiles, tall shower pass-through doors in master bathroom, new Kohler toilets, Kohler sinks, Kohler sink faucets, new medicine cabinets, new vanities, new vanity mirrors installed, along with new drywall, primer paint, finish paint on the walls and doors, reconstructed door casings & door jambs, and new baseboard moldings.
The Cornerstone project was completed in only 3 weeks elapsed time. We happily moved back to our home after our insurance company allowed us to stay free of charge at the local Marriott Residence Inn for 3 months while the materials testing, demolition, water remediation, air quality testing, re-piping, and reconstruction took place.
