They helped me get what i was looking for. They were professional, patient, courteous, and helped le get exactly what i was looking for, couldn't be happier. I strongly recommend giving them a call, you won't regret it!
The experience was wonderful as the work that was done was top shelf. They finished on time and on budget which is what I was hoping for.
Gain trust and grow your business with customer reviews.
A-List Builders is a family-owned Design Build Firm that wants to treat you right.
We know, we know – you hear that a lot, right?
Despite all the assurances, ours is an industry riddled with doubt and suspicion. Most people expect contractors to cut corners, tack on extra costs, skimp out on materials, and duck out on your questions.
We hate that – and we are here to make a change!
It hasn’t been easy, but from the very beginning, we have been working hard to prove that there’s still integrity in our business.
To do that, we first had to overcome the things that make you uneasy.
Our owner and founder, Ben Marciano, has dedicated his career to understanding the process of hiring a contractor and developed a nine point promise to our customers. The “Nine Cs” as we call them here, are the foundation of our business model and they are our promise to you:
Customer Satisfaction – we are committed to excellence through customer satisfaction, everything we do stems from this commitment
Communication – we rely on open lines of communication throughout our entire process to discuss ideas, make plans, and establish expectations to make sure you get what you want
Clarity – clarity prevents anxiety; expect endless questions, constant parroting & in depth explanations to ensure mutual understanding and help you make informed, educated decisions
Control – we might be doing the work, but you’re still the boss. We will be here to educate, suggest, and sometimes even disagree however; the final say is always yours
Comfort- it’s your house, and you should never feel uncomfortable in your safe place; therefore you will never deal with high pressure sales tactic or phony up-selling techniques
Consistency – a stable project manager and an orderly routine ensure you’re not thrown by new faces or irregular happenings
Craftsmanship – attention to detail from the preparation to the tightening of the last screw ensures top quality results; which act as live models of our abilities
Charity – we believe that everyone deserves to have a place they call home; therefore a portion of our proceeds is donated to help improve the lives of others in our community, while we help improve yours
Confidence – our confidence in our ability is not enough, we need your confidence; and that is something we are prepared to earn!
The “Nine Cs” influence our attitude, our design, our labor, our dealings with you, and our role in the community. They are the foundation of our success, and when you get to know our history, it’s clear why they are so important to us.
When Ben’s father, Jacob, arrived in America, he started helping neighbors and new friends around their homes. In the beginning, he mostly worked for free, not expecting much in return, knowing that word of his work would spread. He was right.
Jacob’s success was more than sufficient to support his family and build a future in a foreign land with better opportunities for his children. His commitment to integrity and quality never ceded; furthermore, these qualities would be instilled into his son.
From the day that Ben could pick up a hammer, he was helping his father work. As Ben got older, he became more than just a go-fer. At 16, he was designing projects and obtaining city building permits. By 18, he was working jobs from top to bottom. Only a few short years after that, he was acting foreman on multiple jobs simultaneously. For Ben, contracting runs deep.
When Jacob retired in 2011, Ben decided to start A-List Builders, bringing with him the lifetime of expertise he’d gained working with his father. Today, he is intimately involved with every aspect of his business. He designs projects, performs labor, and is usually the first voice you’ll hear whenever you call us.
In addition to working closely with customers, Ben also brings his family’s unique commitment to family, community, and sustainability. One of the shining examples of this commitment is our partnership with the local Greater Los Angeles affiliate of Habitat for Humanity.
