WHO WE ARE

They are the best when it comes to remodel, additions, etc. This is not the first time I used them and will definitely not be my last time. JR came and did an excellent job in my project. I needed a pool to be demolished, garage to be demolished and rebuilt, complete renovation and addition to my property. The project was completed on schedule as promised. You know he is good when the city inspector requested his business card to refer to his other inspections. The project site was kept clean with no complaints from our neighbors. In terms of the workmanship, it was excellent. His design with lighting, color, and overall design and layout were exactly to our liking. Communications were also excellent. We have weekly on-site meetings to discuss what was done and what the plan is for the upcoming week. We were well informed with the status of our project. He was also very accommodating to our last minute changes. He is not just a great contractor, but a great designer.Read More

Trust me, they are the BEST. We had master bathroom & kitchen remodel with JR and his team and by far the most skilled, respectful, clean and trustworthy general contractor in LA. I worked with many other contractors for our property and the experiences with all of them were always near nightmare after spending so much money. On the other hand, JR, Angel, Junior, Catriona and all other people from Jamie's Kitchen & Bath are so patient, detail oriented and kind. The price is unbeatable. JR got a great taste in design, style and trend if you ask him opinion. He also has really good merchant networks that you can purchase with discounted price like tiles, appliances and so many more. Don't look further. Just go with them and you will not regret.Read More

Excellent, exceptional and impeccable! We are beyond grateful that we got J.R. Mariano and his team (Jamie's Kitchen & Bath) to work on our main ADU and junior ADU constructions after a very thorough research and after getting quotes from five construction companies. Yes, we did our due diligence of course coupled with lots of prayers for guidance and wisdom. We hoped for a hustle-free and stress-free process on our ADU projects since we have very busy work schedules. Jamie's Kitchen & Bath did not disappoint. One of the best decisions of our life indeed! J.R. Mariano is a man of integrity and character. He is very hard working, honest, professional, and detail-oriented which we really like. We super love the quality of his work and his suggestions are all brilliant. All our inspections passed with flying colors despite how strict and detailed the inspectors are in our city. That says a lot! Though it’s supposedly a six to eight months project since we are building two brand new units - a three bedrooms two baths main ADU and a studio junior ADU, J.R. Mariano and his team is able to finish the project in four months period. That’s really amazing! I would like to note as well that while our projects are still on-going, my neighbors, friends, and other extended families (cousins, aunts, uncles, etc.) have chosen Jamie's Kitchen & Bath for their projects as well. Some of them have bad experiences in the past from other companies or other contractors who couldn’t finish the project or who didn’t meet their expectations or who deceived and cheated them in different ways. Though their projects are still in the works currently with J.R., they are giving us feedback that they are already impressed with him and his team. They are speaking very highly of him and are excited for the outcome of their current projects. We are not surprised. In a heart beat we would recommend J.R. Mariano and his team. They exceeded our expectations. At the end of the day, we did not only meet a very good contractor whose work ethics is admirable, but we gain a good friend whom we now consider a family. Thank you Jamie's Kitchen & Bath! The word “thank you” is an understatement really. The Rapinan-Tanyag Family Alhambra, CaRead More

Having a deep experience with home renovations in our ZIP code (91104)- which JKB has in spades - was very important to us. JR expertly balanced our "wants" for our home project with his valuable experience/suggestions (which blended perfectly with the historical neighborhood architectural vibe). Having someone who "gets it" leading these projects (we've done 2 with the company so far) adds a lot of value. We'll be using him for all our remaining projects.Read More

We feel so blessed to work with JR Mariano for our ADU construction in Monrovia. It has been our dream of building an ADU in our property for 10+ years and we have heard so many stories about different experiences family members and friends have had with their contractors. We are so happy that we worked with JR and we would 1000000% recommend him to family and friends! He is professional and easy to communicate with. In the beginning of our construction every detail was made clear; during the construction JR was always one step ahead of everything which made the project as flawless as possible; and in between JR helped us make adjustments what we needed and advised us on the best options. He and his team are exceptional! JR's expertise really made THE DIFFERENCE! Thank you for helping us with our ADU construction journey!Read More

This was our second major project with JR, and once again, he exceeded all expectations. JR recently completed a full remodel of our home, and the results are nothing short of amazing. From the beginning, JR made the entire process incredibly smooth. We lived in half of our home while the other half was demolished and rebuilt from the foundation up, and despite the complexity of living through such an extensive remodel, JR kept everything on track, on time, and on budget. We added a new main bedroom with an ensuite bathroom, a powder room, and a laundry closet. JR designed custom features that have completely transformed our space, including a hidden pull-out clothes drying rack with a custom fluted white oak door and a floating white oak media cabinet that are simply stunning. The open office with its custom white oak barn door and airy windows is another favorite, and the kitchen renovation — opening up what was once a closed-off space to create a spacious, functional kitchen with a cooktop island — has truly improved the flow of our home. In addition to these indoor changes, JR also worked on the exterior of our house, painting it and demolishing the old shingle siding to replace it with a gorgeous board-and-batten look that contrasts beautifully with our lap siding. The exterior transformation alone has added so much character and curb appeal to our home. JR didn’t stop there. He also replaced our roof, upgraded the electrical panel, upgraded the HVAC and installed new windows, further enhancing the home's value and energy efficiency. His attention to detail and commitment to quality is evident in every corner of our home. One of the most meaningful aspects of working with JR is how much he genuinely cares about his craft and his clients. JR took the time to show and explain the work to my sons, teaching them about the building process. It's clear that he not only takes pride in his work but also values sharing that knowledge with the next generation. His team clearly respects him, and it’s evident that they all care deeply about the work they do. This is more than just a house; it’s a home built with love, care, and integrity. JR is the most honest, knowledgeable, and hardworking contractor we've ever worked with. His transparency and commitment to getting things right make him stand out as a true professional. Not only are we looking forward to working with him again, but we will also be recommending him to all of our friends and family. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your home with the same care and respect as you do, JR is the contractor you want. This is truly a house our family will appreciate for many years to come, and we’re so thankful to JR and his team for making that possible.Read More

I highly recommend Jamie's Kitchen & Bath. I've used them on two projects so far, and will use them again. JR, Cat, and the rest of the team are top notch, punctual, and go above and beyond.Read More

We were looking for a contractor to build an ADU. After getting a few quotes I was directed to Jamie’s Kitchen and Bath. Jamie’s Kitchen and Bath is a great company. Construction was fast. They executed the plans perfectly and when inspections were done by the city, there was never any need to fix anything. All inspections were completed successfully. The city inspector was particularly impressed and commented that my contractor was very good. Jamie’s Kitchen and Bath laid out a plan and schedule and communicated the execution of both to me regularly. Questions were answered quickly and expertly even when outside of regular hours. I recommend them to everyone and will be a repeat customer!Read More

I have worked with JR and his team on a multiple commercial projects. All of my experiences have been positive and pleasant. Throughout the projects, communication was consistent and I am always updated on status of the work. JR is quick to provide solutions and address any concerns that I have. His team is friendly, professional, thorough, and are experts in their field.Read More

JR and his team renovated our home and they did an amazing job. It makes things easier to have an experienced design and construction team both in the same shop. Pricing is very fair and his team are truly best in class at their craft.Read More

I've worked with Jamie's kitchen on a multi school remodeling project recently. They were super flexible when we needed to make some last minute design changes. They were hands-on in helping us through the entire process which was quite complex. This is the fourth project we have worked on together but the first time I have written a review. On the previous residential projects we had an amazing experience working with their design and install team. Materials used were top notch and install was relatively quick and on time. We are very happy and will continue to work with Jamie's in the future.Read More

JR and his crew did an excellent job of remodeling my bathroom. My 2 brothers highly recommended Jamie’s Kitchen and Bath after one had his kitchen and 2 bathrooms remodeled and the other had a bathroom remodeled. I really appreciate the quality of their work, JR’s recommendations for all of the hardware, the attention to detail to ensure everything met and exceeded expectations, that the crew showed up on time and that I was told in advance what time, who was coming and what work they would be doing. They even completed the job ahead of schedule! I also have to commend Cat for all she did to support this project behind the scenes. I will be having Jamie’s Kitchen and Bath back to remodel my kitchen and later to add another bathroom. As you can tell, I highly recommend Jamie’s Kitchen and Bath!Read More

Jamie's Kitchen is the best. This is the second whole-house remodeling projects we did with JR; one for my son's home and the other mine. Initially, my wife and i have some fears on the project as we don't have any experience with home design but JR guide us confidently throughout the project with great ideas and recommendations. He is very patient, helpful and fast response to all our needs. Most importantly, the complete renovation takes about a few months and JR update us on the status each week. In addition, he directs you to wholesale companies to acquire appliances, faucets, and any components for better discounts and pricing. His team of professionals delivered high quality of work. I will definitely use Jamie's Kitchen and Bath for any future renovation!Read More

From the moment we reached out to Jamie’s Kitchen for an estimate to the final days of our kitchen remodel, they were nothing short of professional and responsive. We knew immediately we had found the right person when we met JR in person and did the walk through. JR helped guide us through the process of picking our appliances, cabinets, tile, floors, and countertops. His suggestions were always helpful and he always helped send us in the right direction. We are not design experts, so it helped having someone with such amazing expertise and experience. Their team was professional, courteous, and clean. Always on time and quick, yet proficient. As tiny problems popped up, JR and team were always responsive and came immediately to solve them. In addition, JR would send text updates almost every day with pictures, even on the weekends! We still can’t believe how flawlessly everything came together. In the end, this is our dream kitchen and it came out better than we could’ve imagined! Thank you Jamie’s Kitchen and Bath.Read More

A dear friend of ours who recently worked with JR from Jamie’s Kitchen and Bath, highly recommended him for our single family home remodel. After talking to several other contractors, we found JR to be the most responsive and had many word of mouth recommendations. After checking out a couple of his finished works, we finally decided go with him for our project. From day 1, we have been very pleased with the service he and his team have provided. He made sure he understood what we wanted and worked within our budget without sacrificing quality. He was at the project site daily and sent me photos everyday of the progress that was made. He communicated with us everyday and made us aware of what the expectations were for the day or week. They made sure that they left the place clean at the end of everyday. He was very patient and very accommodating even when we made changes to the initial design and made other requests. The quality of the work was excellent! He also only used durable and high quality materials and the price he charged was very reasonable. These days, it is not easy to find a contractor that you can trust, who values customer service, quality of work and who will not nickel and dime you. But we found all of these and more with JR and his team at Jamie’s Kitchen and Bath.Read More

During the pandemic, we decided to proceed with an ADU that we had wanted now for several years. After our consultation with JR, we hired an architect and proceeded with plans and permitting. The process from the start to completion couldn't have gone any smoother. As the ADU was part of a multi-unit property that included trenching into one of our tenant's yard, communication was key to ensure that the tenant was inconvenienced as little as possible while also making sure that their dog was still able to access and play in his yard. JR and his team was able to work with the tenant and work around their schedule as everyone was also working from home during this time. Due to the small space of the ADU, JR's eye for design and understanding of functionality provided better kitchen layout to allow future tenants to better utilize the space. Lastly, with the pandemic and the delays with inspection, we were very worried that the project would be longer that anticipated. Not only did we finish 1 month earlier than we had anticipated, he stayed within the budget he originally quoted us which was very hard at the time with increasing material costs. We are very happy with the ADU and look forward to working with JR and his team again in the future.Read More

My partner and I purchased our first home at the end of 2020, and were referred to Jamie's Kitchen & Bath by a colleague shortly thereafter. JR and team did an excellent job renovating 2 of our dated old bathrooms into clean, modern designs. Being first time homeowners, the process seemed intimidating at first, but JR communicated fully with us every step of the way, and helped us navigate complicated design and fixture choices. Their employees and subs were all professional and courteous, and the work was completed on time and in budget. We're very pleased with the results, and look forward to working with them again in the future to renovate our primary bath and kitchen. I recommend them without hesitation.Read More

JR and team did an amazing job with our complete remodel of our kitchen and primary bath! I had been thinking about remodeling for some time but never had the confidence in a contractor to move forward. From our initial consultation, I knew JR understood my vision but I still had my reservations due to many friends and family having bad experiences. But JR was great through the planning and design process, then gave an honest and fair bid and we were on our way! From our inspiration photos and design consultations, JR guided us through the entire project through completion, helping to make our decisions as easy and seamless as possible by bringing samples to us and communicating each step of the project so we all stayed on task. Through JR's extensive knowledge and years of experience, he was able to provide us with a lot great ideas as well. Once construction started, JR and team were extremely professional and efficient, from demo team to electrician to the tile and countertop installation etc., each was a meticulous craftsman. We were particular about the details and we had a few changes along the way but JR was always patient, accommodating and was still able to complete the work within the quote timeframe (amazing!). Throughout the project, he made sure we were happy with the work being done, every step of the way. JR is a true design/build contractor who is honest, takes pride in his work and cares about his clients. Our kitchen and bathroom looks incredible and have already referred JR and team to friends and family. We're so thankful we found JR!Read More

Getting quotes for remodels can be a stressful process. Seeing eye to eye on how you want the design to be done can be challenging and stressful as well. Throw in sub contractors coming to your house everyday and you might as well guarantee that life during the remodel will definitely change. However, JR's attention to our style, needs, and wants made this all the more positive. Including that, his quote was honest and fair. He was able to bring out my wife's ideas to fruition. On top of all that, the crews that he brought into our home for the duration of 2 months were hard working, honest, and generally nice people. Although there were some minor hiccups, as this is common when you are doing as much work as we did, JR was able to relieve that stress through his prompt communication and immediate remedy to fix the issue. Overall, JR puts his full effort and is ALL in to please his customers. His advice on the design of our remodel from suggested paint colors to types of tiles were stellar. Daily communication and reliability were definitely exhibited. We knew what to expect because the plan was always shared daily and executed. The schedule of completion was right on target as predicted from day one. I've heard horror stories from friends when they did remodel work at their home, and I can truly say that there are no serious horror stories to report here. I 100% recommend Jamie's Kitchen & Bath for your remodeling needs!Read More

In November 2022, having hired Jamie's Kitchen & Bath in the past to perform a complete renovation of our large kitchen in a 100-year-old Spanish Colonial residence, followed in later years by the compete renovation of two bathrooms, we moved into a smaller home. Again we reached out to the company, this time to completely renovate an addition to the house that was used as an office into a bedroom with a half-bath. Across all three projects, JR Mariano and his trades completed the work on time, below budget, with utmost courtesy, and well beyond our expectations in terms of the quality. At our former home, the kitchen and bathrooms blended perfectly with the Spanish Colonial aesthetic. The new bedroom constructed in our current house, which was gutted to the studs by the previous owner and beautifully renovated, perfectly complements the design. We've owned several houses and always had problems with quality and service. The contrast with Jamie's Kitchen & Bath is startling.Read More

was referred to JR by a friend. What a find. The first project ]R did for me was a complete kitchen remodel. I gave him an idea of what I wanted and he exceeded my expectations. The time frame of the project and cost were exactly what he quoted me and the quality of the work was exceptional. The second project ]R did for me was an ADU from the ground up. Every city inspection passed the first time. When the project was completed he again exceeded my expectations. Can't say enough good things about ]R and his company.Read More

I have had the pleasure of having two projects completed by Jamie's Kitchen and Bath. The first was a gutting of our entire kitchen, floor to ceiling. Everyone who comes into our house remarks on the kitchen. It is both beautiful and extremely practical. Last year, J. R. helped me partially remodel and renew the Master Bathroom. Not as many of our guests see this area, but those who have are wowed. J.R. has an encyclopedic knowledge of the materials available and an eye for what will work well in a space. His electricians, painters, plumbers, stoneworkers and especially his cabinetmakers are all experts in their fields and without exception focused on making their part of the project measure up to what J.R. and the customer consider Excellence. J. R. also happily works within the customers' s sense of style and color, while recommending practical and stylist options. After many expensive mistakes in contracting, I can't believe my luck in having found J.R. and Jamie's Kitchen and Bath. My husband and I heartily recommend him for any work you might have in mind. You will be delighted!Read More

I have used Jamies cabinets in the past and have always been very pleased with his work. I called JR late in 2021 to replace my kitchen countertops. JR walked me through the entire process and always makes great suggestions. I picked out the quartz countertop I wanted. JR coordinated his team to come out and demo the current counter tops, keeping the existing back splash and install the new counter tops. His team demo the old countertops without breaking any of the existing back splash and installed the new counter tops all in 1 day. His team shows up on time, are respectful, clean up after themselves and JR was in constant contact with me throughout the process. I would not hesitate to recommend Jamies Kitchen & Bath for any project.Read More
