Our Client Testimonials
They completed the project efficiently while maintaining high standards of quality and professionalism. The team paid attention to every detail and made sure we were satisfied with the results. I would definitely hire them again.
We finally brought down our master bathroom and started from scratch. The old layout had the toilet right next to the tub which was just weird. LeCut crew helped us rearrange everything so the space actually makes sense now. The shower is bigger, the vanity has actual storage, and the whole room feels like a mini spa. If I ever need some remodeling done right in San Jose, I know who to call
They handled my remodeling project with great care and kept the workspace clean every day. I appreciated their honesty, professionalism, and dedication to delivering high-quality results. I would definitely recommend them for any construction or renovation needs.
I was nervous about renovating our tiny San Jose bathroom, but LeCut delivered beyond expectations. They maximized every inch of space, added beautiful tile work, and finished a full week early. The crew was professional, cleaned up daily, and even helped us select fixtures that fit our budget.
We turned our cramped, dark basement into a bright family room and a guest bathroom. It was a big project, but the remodel contractor walked us through every decision. The space is so cozy now that we actually fight over who gets to hang out down there. It’s not just extra square footage, it’s become our favorite room in the house. Such a smart use of space.
My Mom had been wanting to remodel our kitchen for quite a while but after a bad experience with a different contractor our family was very nervous about starting the work back up. Guy with LeCut helped reassure us from the first consultation all the way through till the completion of the project. We really appreciated his transparency and clarity whenever we had questions.
Tal and Nir gave us a first class design experience, looking at Mom's inspiratons and working with us to nail down all the details like paint, materials, lighting, etc. Their full 3D renders got us really excited about the project, and being able to see exactly what the finished product would look like before construction began gave us a lot of confidence.
Sammy and the build team were fantastic. They finished everything from demo, paint, flooring, cabinets, countertops and more in just a month! They worked with Guy to flag and correct any issues quickly. From craftsmanship to making sure everything was up to building code requirements, their work speaks for itself - our family loves how gorgeous our house is now!
LeCut Construction gave us as stress free a remodel as I think you can get with stunning results. Really appreciate Guy and his whole team for their efforts, and would recommend them looking to do remodel work.
Experienced team creating clean finishes and delivering steady updates.
I recently found myself locked out of my house late at night, and it was a terrible experience. I called an emergency locksmith, and a technician came to my location in an incredibly short period of time, less than 20 minutes. He was very professional and polite. He quickly unlocked me into my house without causing any damage. The service was excellent, and the charges were reasonable for the emergency.
Working with this business for our bathroom remodel was a smooth experience. They listened to our ideas and offered custom home remodeling suggestions that fit perfectly. The end result feels really professional without feeling overdone.
My home addition fits so naturally that visitors think it was originally built that way. Their design ideas helped us avoid a lot of guesswork. I am really happy with how the project turned out.
New Almaden is home to foothills, old mining era houses and curvy roads surrounding the Almaden Quicksilver County Park and the historic New Almaden district. Our team is aware that the construction of an ADU here must be done in a manner that is sensitive to the terrain and climate. The climate in New Almaden is hot with dry summers, cooler in areas under shade especially in the vicinity of the hills and the nighttime winter temperatures sometimes fall to freezing. These are the direct aspects that determine the way in which an ADU ought to be designed to ensure that it is comfortable and durable.
We construct ADUs in New Almaden, which are environmentally friendly and thermally balanced. Heat may be trapped easily in small areas and evenings when it is colder require regular insulation and air sealing. Through consideration of sun exposure, changes in elevation, and airflow, we develop ADUs, which regulate heat efficiently, moisture in colder seasons, and reliably during transition periods.
Work-from-Home Areas in ADUs
ADUs in New Almaden are becoming more frequently used as workstations since remote work is becoming more popular. Our group creates work-at-home spaces that are conducive to concentration, comfort, and productivity and address local weather situations. A properly designed workspace enhances the day to day operations without interfering with the rest of the ADU.
Natural Light No Overheating
We have windows installed so that daylight can enter the house and the heat keeps out during hot afternoons. Shading and glazing decrease glare and fluctuations in temperature. This provides a working environment that is comfortable to work long hours.
Separation Acoustic and Visual
Such separation is beneficial to work areas even in small ADUs. Layout planning and sound control are methods that we use to minimize distractions. This is particularly necessary in quiet and hilly areas where privacy holds high esteem.
Thermal and Airflow Comfort
Concentration is facilitated by constant temperatures. Airflow is designed so that it does not become stuffy without the use of mechanical cooling. Even in hotter seasons, comfort is ensured.
Considerable work-from-home layout enables ADUs to operate as effective offices. Climate sensitive planning will make sure that these areas can be used throughout the year.

ADUs Outdoor Decks and Patios
Harmonious summers and breath-taking surroundings mean that we can use our deck and patios and enjoy a lot of room and comfort. Our team will develop outdoor spaces that will integrate with the ADU and adapt to the climate.
- Outdoor Heat-Managed Surfaces: The selection of materials decreases the heat intake during summer. This makes outdoor spaces comfortable in the direct sunshine. Durability is also backed by surface options.
- Shading and Shelter: The pergolas, overhangs, or partial covers are a source of coolness. Outdoor usage can be made in the daytime using shading. Material life is also prolonged.
- Assimilation to Natural Landscape: Patios and decks are created according to the contours of the site. This will decrease the grading requirements, and save natural character. Outdoor areas do not look artificial.
- Viable, Long Life Materials: Materials resist sunshine and changes in temperature. Less maintenance facilitates the extended usability. Realistic decisions save investment.
Small Bathrooms Solutions to ADUs
Bathrooms in small ADUs will need careful designs particularly in coastal climate that is humid. Our team develops bathrooms that are usable and comfortable without wastage of space. All the components are chosen with efficiency and durability. Efficiency of layout is vital. Space-saving fixtures and intelligent designs are used to ensure the absence of clutter.
Smaller footprints need not be cramped as they are to be planned. The key aspect of performance in bathrooms in Alviso is ventilation. Humidity can be controlled with proper exhaust systems and the chances of mold are minimized. Smooth finishes are also moisture-resistant which adds further protection against the damage of surfaces in the long term.

The maximum size of an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) in San Jose, Santa Clara, and Sunnyvale, CA, is typically governed by local zoning codes. For a detached ADU on a single-family lot, the general limit is often 1,200 square feet, though this can vary based on lot size and setbacks. Attached ADUs may have different allowances, sometimes capped at 50% of the primary dwelling's floor area. It is crucial to check specific city regulations, as they can change.
