Quick review: Pablo and his team brought our kitchen vision to life! Fair quote and time for the project. Pablo really takes on a lot to ensure that we (as his clients) didn't get burdened with stress that comes with renovations. Highly recommend Real Vida to anyone looking to renovate their home.Â
Long review: Alright so this was our first journey into renovations. We asked around town, got a couple quotes and Pablo gave us the best quote. He's funny and communicative which made this process a whole lot better since this was our first time renovating. He doesn't have design services

After purchasing a condo in downtown, San Diego I met with several general contracting companies, but I never found anyone that could beat the value, professionalism, and punctuality that I found with Pablo and his team at Real Vida Remodeling.
He installed new flooring throughout my unit and did a complete remodel in my kitchen. The results speak for themselves.
If you are looking for a family-owned business that will provide you dream project results you've always wanted, look no further than Real Vida Remodeling.

We met Pablo while he was working on another remodel in our building.
He showed me his work and I was very impressed.
We hired Real Vida Remodeling to re-tile our guest bathroom.
His crew was quick and they kept our condo spotless.
They vacuumed the area as they were working non-stop as they
knew we just repainted our place.
Very professional team! Thank you :)
The tile job is perfect, your team was very respectful, and kept everything clean during this job :) Highly recommend.

Pablo and his crew do excellent work. Pablo helped improve the bathroom design and sent us to great suppliers for tile and hardware. Then, he went to bat for us when some of the tile wasn't right for the niche. He's really fun to work with and we loved every member of his crew. The project took a month, off and on, as we waited for backordered parts (which we expected). The guys were on time every day, cleaned up every day, and left us with a fabulous new bathroom. I wish I had a picture of the old one, with a standard tub and shower combination, so you could see the transformation. We

We were in serious need of a remodel on our kitchen and bathroom. We searched Yelp and found 3 different companies to come take a look at our house. And let me tell you Real Vida Remodeling set the bar so high we didn't need to look any further. Pablo came over and gave us his thoughts and ideas which is exactly what we needed since we didn't know what way we wanted to do it. His communication was amazing and top notch!! Now mind you our house was built in 1941 so we knew there would be some challenges with the remodel but Pablo and his crew conquered every one of them. His crew was on

We recently remodeled our kitchen, bath and laundry with Pablo and he exceeded all our expectations! We met with Pablo on several occasions to discuss our ideas and what we wanted and he was very easy to work with. One of the things we like most was his communication, he is upfront and would let us know what they will be working on next. There were times where he went out of his way to pick up fixtures to help since we were so busy with work. It was nice to not stress about the project and because Pablo was so reliable. His team is experienced and extremely skilled in what they do. They were

We are in love with our brand new kitchen! Pablo and his team did an amazing job remodeling our small and outdated kitchen. We had several contractors come out for quotes but decided to go with Real Vida because Pablo was very knowledgeable and we felt like he knew what he was doing, his down-to-earth personality that made us choose him for the project
This was our first major remodel and the process was quite overwhelming, however, Pablo was very helpful in guiding us throughout the project with his recommendations. We had a few changes throughout such as the layout, countertop choices, custom

We highly recommend Real Vida Remodeling!
We needed our two bathrooms renovated and found Pablo (owner) on Yelp. The 5 stars are definitely valid. He was the only one out of the five contractors we looked at who
- had a reasonable price
- who didn't try to sell us a bunch of other things
- who was honest and genuine when asked for advice.
Pablo and his crew were amazing! They always showed up on time, they stuck to the plan and contract discussed, I always was informed on what's happening each day and the following and they always cleaned up and tidied up before they left for the

I used Real Vida Remodeling for a 1 Bedroom Condo remodel. See below for pros and cons and overall at the end of review.
Pros:
* Pablo (The Construction Manager) and his crew did an excellent job on the remodel, see pictures.
* Most affordable bid out of all contractors.
* Was flexible for our design and timeline.
* Completed construction in amount of time stated in bid.
Cons:
* Pablo says he is very busy, and will forget things that he has said to you earlier in the construction process. He acts so busy that it makes you feel like he is not giving you his 100% time and effort.
* During walkthrough

I have had two condos remodeled by the owner of this company, complete down to the studs in 2009. Now at my other condo he has just completed my kitchen remodel with his company Real Vida Remodeling. I am extremely happy and satisfied with the professional job completed. I trust them to provide the results desired and they came through again. I would not be returning for service if I had not been secure with the previous remodel.

Pablo completed the remodel of a bathroom and kitchen in my Mission Hills condo. Both the bathroom and kitchen were dark closed off spaces and involved removal of walls and moving of plumbing/electrical. The bathroom was also converted from a bathtub to a step in shower. Along the way there were unexpected issues that surfaced, but we worked through them and I am happy with the end result. Pablo was always willing to meet to go over the progress and checked in frequently to make sure I was satisfied throughout the duration of the renovation. The bathroom and kitchen are huge improvements from

We hired Pablo at Real Vida to do a bathroom remodel in our downtown condo. We removed a tub and replaced it with a step in shower and replaced the tile flooring. Real Vida was the lowest bid out of four contractors. The project went
very smooth thanks to Pablo's excellent communications with us and his very skilled subcontractors. His tile, plumbing and glass contractors were perfectly scheduled and they did an amazing job. I highly recommend Real Vida for any remodel project you might have.

Recently, Pablo and his team remodeled my bathtub and tiled my bathroom and they did an outstanding job. From start to finish, I have never worked with a more considerate professional group of tradesmen. The prep, the setup so the rest of my home would not be disturbed by their work was beyond impressive. His workers were always polite and never messy. Pablo was always calling me, letting me know of timelines and what his team was doing. The old idea of remodeling costing double your budget and taking twice as long? Pablo's contract price was exactly what we negotiated and he finished when

We used Pablo and his team to completely remodel our outdated kitchen and it turned out absolutely stunning. Pablo's visual diagram he presented to us was exactly as we envisioned and more. His estimate was fair and he used good quality cabinets, quartz countertops, and farmer's sink. During the remodel Pablo was respectful to our home while we were at work and we had an open line of communication throughout the entire process answering our phone calls. I would recommend him to family, friends, and to anyone who needed a new kitchen or any contracting work.
