Our Client Testimonials
Adding a second story addition to our Santa Clara home felt risky until we signed with Lecut. They locked in our contract price before breaking ground, eliminating cost overruns. Their crew worked efficiently, completing structural framing ahead of schedule while keeping the job site spotless.
Our rotting porch in Palo Alto was unsafe, but Lecut completed a new composite deck building job in four days flat.
We had a great experience working with Lecut and Yari on our bathroom remodel. Yari was very responsive and easy to communicate with throughout the entire project, and Lecut did a great job with the installation and finishing work.
They were professional, reliable, and always willing to come back and take care of small details when needed. We're very happy with how everything turned out and really appreciate their hard work and attention to detail.
I had a consultation with Yari to discuss a potential home remodel. He spent a great deal of time understanding my goals, brainstorming different layout options, and explaining the pros and cons of each approach. I appreciated that he was thoughtful, patient, and transparent throughout the discussion. He followed up with a detailed summary of our meeting and a realistic preliminary estimate, which helped me make an informed decision. Although I ultimately decided not to move forward with a major remodel, I had a very positive experience working with him and would gladly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and professional contractor.
LeCut will ensure you love your renewed home.
After beating out two other remodel bids, because of the team, vision, and value, Yari, Luis, and team transformed our outdated bathroom into a clean, usable, and comfortable space. Working with Yari was a great experience, since he personally ensured we were 100% satisfied with the results of the project. Communicating with the team was smooth and the team was clean and respectful with with the rest of our house. Prior to completing the project, Yari did a thorough inspection with us to identify issues with tile alignment and grout finish. Yari and Luis brought the team back to rework the fit and finish items quickly, leaving us completely happy with the space.
We needed a kitchen update and a complete bathroom renovation in a smaller home. They maximized the space without making it feel crowded. Cabinets, counters, and tile all look custom. Communication was clear from start to finish and there were no last-minute extras. The rooms feel new and well built.
We remodeled the kitchen and two bathrooms as part of a larger first-floor refresh. The kitchen now works for a family and the bathrooms feel like they belong in a nicer house. Attention to trim, grout, and hardware stood out. They stayed on schedule and the final walkthrough was thorough. Extremely pleased with the results.
Our master bathroom and kitchen were last remodeled in the 90s, so we finally hired LeCut. The walk-in shower, dual vanity, and new kitchen layout completely changed how we use the house. Our project manager was on site almost every day and handled the permits without us lifting a finger. Workmanship is excellent and they finished a week early. Couldn’t be happier with LeCut!!!
We couldn't be happier with our experience working with LeCut Construction. Yari, Luis and the whole team were great to work with throughout the process. They responded quickly to every question, concern or comment we had every step of the way. They completely remodeled both our bathrooms and we love how they both turned out.
Lecut Construction completed a full remodel of our kitchen and master bathroom plus beautification of our garage. Yari Bardugo presided over the operation with skill, attentiveness, and good humor. All structural work was totally robust – we could see the quality being built in. Work on the finish elements was where Yari really shined. He checked for our desired positioning of lights and switches and the height of grab bars. When we were uncertain, he offered helpful suggestions. Yari also orchestrated various resources within Lecut (electricians and tilers) and outside (asbestos removal and HVAC). If anything wasn’t perfect the first time, Yari helped us improve it. He came to visit nearly every day, and we enjoyed our conversations very much.
Customized ADU Plans for Every Home
Each home has its opportunities and limitations, that is why the effective ADU design can not be based on the one-size-fits-all solutions, much like no two landmarks in San Jose—from the innovative exhibits at The Tech Interactive to the historic mysteries of the Winchester Mystery House or the natural beauty of Almaden Quicksilver Park—are identical. We design tailor made ADU plans, which are adapted to the layout, size, access points and the environment of our property. In a keen examination of the site at the very beginning we generate designs that are thoughtful, harmonized and, of course, give natural fit to the house they serve.
We do not see ourselves as just putting a structure into the space there is. We evaluate the relationship of the ADU with the principal residence, exterior space, and adjacent estates and that privacy, circulation, and orientation are addressed well. The window placement, building proportions and setbacks are perfected to develop a design that blends in without any confusion of independence.
Customization also entails strategizing on the way the space is going to be used in the present and future. Whether the ADU is supposed to be the house of the extended family of the customer, rental, or a changeable lifestyle, every plan is meant to be flexible, agreeable and friendly in the long run. What has emerged is a personalized ADU solution that adds value to your property, operates effectively and provides long-term value.
We Deliver Thoughtful ADU Design and Planning Solutions
Considerate ADU design is initiated with proper planning and decision making. We will get to know what the site is like, what your area needs to obey, and what needs to be accomplished, and then we will mold a design that will suit the requirements, regulations, and aesthetic clarity. This proactive attitude can enable us to solve problems before they emerge and develop solutions that are realistic, effective and thought out.
We have designed our process of planning in a manner to minimize uncertainty and simplify approvals. In the alignment of design, documentation, and planning requirements, we provide ADU solutions that proceed without fear of revisions, delays, and establishing a clear base on which the successful construction of ADU construction can proceed.

Questions
How is your ADU planning process conducted?
We evaluate your location, check and meet local rules and fit the design to your objectives before drawing straight forward, building ready plans.
Is my property qualified to be an ADU? Could you assist in the answer?
Yes. We consider zoning, access and setbacks and site conditions to ensure feasibility is determined at an early stage.
Do you help in planning approvals and permits?
We make ready conforming designs and documentation to assist in planning submissions and facilitate approvals.
At what age should I consider your team in ADU planning?
The earlier the better. Being able to detect constraints early enables us to deal with them early on before realizing that designs require a change of direction at a later date.
