"We just completed a complete renovation of our newly purchased, but original condition, 1926 Tutor-style home by Gil and Levy Kempler and, we will never use another general contractor other than these two gentlemen.
In the past 25 years, I have rehabbed 5 homes, and was never satisfied and never used the same general contractor more than once. However, this time, we are thrilled with the work of this company in every single aspect and phase of work you could think of. Gil was here every day and ensured that every sub had the proper number of men for the work that was to be done in that phase, and inspected the work EVERY DAY!! I never had to point out a problem or concern because Gil was always one (actually 4 or 5) steps ahead of me. (When you renovate, rather than build new, you never really know what problems you are going to find until you remove the old wall, plumbing, etc. and Gil always had several options for us to consider when we were faced with a new, unforeseen problem.)"
I never received an invoice for work by the subs which was not previously reviewed, and if necessary, corrected by Gil. And the work product is fabulous. So it really goes without saying that Gil and Levy are the finest contractors we have ever come into contact, and if you are looking for quality work, very easy people with whom to deal, fair price, and on-time and on budget completion, look no further. We really recommend them and will use them again."
" To hire Kempler Construction is to know that you have hired the best general contractor in the city or the valley.
This father-son team is very honest, professional, creative, well respected, and, most important, on time and on budget. Gil and Levy’s vast knowledge of the complicated rules of construction and remodeling, including codes, inspections, engineering, releases, and materials, is beyond compare. The subs that they hire are equally well versed in their respective fields, polite, and very pleasant to work with. Follow through by Kempler Construction is A++. Gil and Levy stand behind their work and are not satisfied until you are satisfied.
No question about your project is too trivial and no request too burdensome. If this is your first experience with a general contractor, they are very patient and explain every part of the process. You will receive, at a minimum, weekly updates from Gil and Levy by phone and/or email regarding the progress of your project. They always return your telephone calls.
During my extensive remodel, I was very grateful for all of the time, support and information provided by Gil and Levy. I highly recommend Kempler Construction, unconditionally, and look forward to working with them on future projects. Please feel free to call me with any questions."
"Hi Yagil,
I'd really like to thank you guys for being so on top of everything. Every time there is an issue, you have always been there to resolve it.
We are really close to finishing up everything, and J and I appreciate your updates on how things are going. ..
Anyhow, just wanted you to know.
Thanks much"
" Having been in the business of building and remodeling homes for many years, I have worked with several different contractors….always finding the words ‘contractor’ and ‘honesty’ to be incompatible.
Then came the Kemplers who proved otherwise. Their work ethic and honesty is incomparable. After completing my second job with them on time and on budget, I applaud these gentlemen.
They have rekindled my faith in the professionalism rarely found in this industry anymore. Without any hesitation I can wholeheartedly recommend Kempler and Company!"
"Kempler and Co built a house addition for me on a tricky hillside lot. They worked closely with my architect, structural engineer, and the city to assure structural stability while paying close attention to aesthetics.
Several neighbors have paid me compliments on the look of the new addition, which blends perfectly with the older construction. The neighbors also noted that Gil and the construction crew were sensitive to their concerns as well as mine, so the disruption for all of us was kept to a minimum.
In addition, Gil's attention to detail resulted in a beautiful interior as well as exterior. Problems were often resolved before I knew that they existed at all.
Overall, they provided reliable, prompt, and professional service of the highest quality."
"Dear Gil,
As I complete my second job with you I continue to hold you in such high esteem. In this fluctuating market, it is amazing to bring in any job on time and on budget, and you are two for two!!
You never hesitated to go beyond the call of duty, and your unceasing calm made it a pleasure to work with you. I am thrilled with the results and would recommend Kempler and Co. without any hesitation.
Thank you so much for everything you have done
"A pleasure to work with from start to finish. On time, on budget, and the project turned out great.
We look forward to working with the Kemplers again and would highly recommend them for projects large or small. Coming from a real estate attorney, that's quite a compliment.
