Our Client Testimonials
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.

My Husband and i absolutely thrilled with my newly remodeled kitchen by LECUT CoNSTRCTION / Yari, I had a very specific vision for a clean, minimalist, all-white kitchen centered around a beautiful island, and they brought it to life perfectly. The team was professional, communicative, and truly respected, specially Yari and Louis, my home throughout the entire process. The quality of the finishings and the attention to detail exceeded my expectations. If you are looking for a team that can execute a flawless design, I highly recommend them!"

These guys handled my bathroom in a very special way. They did an overall renovation on my bathroom and it looks great now. I would highly recommend them again and again.
The best ability is availability. I originally chose LeCut after interviewing with a few local Referred construction people. My decision was based on, simply looking at the yelp and Google reviews first. Then, Yari, who became our consultant, showed up and spent some time discussing the project with me. We set realistic goals for a timeline. He shared some ideas that the other construction team members did not share. I didn't feel like I was surprised during any point in the process. One of the things that Yari did really well is maintain communication and pretty much a daily basis. There was times when he was proactive, but there was times when he was responsive to my calls. Doing a big construction project has a lot of small intricacies. I felt like the communication was pretty fluid throughout. This was even when Yari was on a family vacation up in Yellowstone. He was proactively communicating with me. Edgar was our foreman and he did an excellent job of showing up every day and working on rhythm. I don't think he took a day off. Overall, I would say very professional between my two point people. The owner of the company, Michael showed up and did a friendly check in when Yari was on vacation. Overall, we are happy with our new kitchen and living room floors. Thank you guys! Keep up the great work...

The combination of the older residential neighborhoods, infill lots, and newer developments in San Jose presents an extensive array of design and planning challenges to the ADUs. Starting with small parcels around Downtown, including near landmarks like San José City Hall, the Tech Interactive, and the historic Winchester Mystery House, up to massive parcels in other locations such as Evergreen and Cambrian, our team understands that the effective planning of ADU begins with the knowledge of how the various sites operate in their own environment. The nature of the local conditions such as long summer heat, fluctuating humidity, and colder winter nights affects the manner in which spaces are to be planned initially.
Our attention is on ADU planning which is efficient, comfortable, and longevous. Considerate choices in the layout process contribute to the minimization of heat accumulation in hot seasons, whereas the wise planning of insulation and ventilation facilitates the maintenance of the comfortable house temperature throughout the year. Our work in the upfront design stage assists in making sure that the ADUs in San Jose are viable, sustainable and adaptable to our daily lives.
ADU Design and Planning Services
Planning clear and informed projects at ADU leads to effective projects. In San Jose, the possibilities are determined by zoning regulations, lot restriction and climate conditions. The design and planning work that is offered by our team makes it conform to regulations, site conditions and practical application.
Site Analysis and Feasibility
Site size, access points, and structures are evaluated prior to the design. This assists in uncovering the constraints at an early stage and avoiding redesigning at a later stage. It is also at this stage that climate exposure is checked.
Code-Aware Design Planning
The layout, height, and setbacks are affected by the local requirements. We design ADUs that do not violate the rules at the expense of usability. Compliance ensures that there are no delays in approvals.
Climate-Responsive Layouts
Layouts are built in a way that helps in minimizing the accumulation of heat and enhances air circulation. The arrangement of the windows and even the room orientation is to be done purposefully. The design does not include comfort as a later addition.
Powerful planning develops a smoother process. With a decision-making process based on local conditions, the design decisions are less impeded.

Professional ADU Planning Services
The issue of older housing stock, insufficient utility capacity, and close proximity are influencing factors in the way that the ADU projects would need to be planned in San Jose. These variables are discussed in our team in order to have the process being controlled and predictable.
- Utility Integration and Capacity Review: Electrical, plumbing and sewer systems are tested to ensure that they have the capacity to sustain the additional demand. In case of upgrades, they are detected at the planning stage and not in the middle of the construction. This minimizes waiting time and hidden expenses.
- Site and Neighborhood Coordination: The lot access and nearness to the adjacent buildings, as well as the current site conditions, are examined. These are the considerations made to staging, scheduling, and construction flow. Premature coordination will prevent inconveniences during the construction.
- Climate-Aware Scheduling: Construction sequencing takes into consideration the temperature variations in season and heat patterns in San Jose. Phases are heat sensitive and will be used to protect materials and workmanship. Timing is a factor that enhances efficiency and quality.
Custom ADU Design Solutions
The custom design is highly needed in such a diverse city like San Jose because the lot sizes, the style of homes and the needs of using them may vary greatly among different neighborhoods. Our group creates the ADU designs that directly react to the individual properties, lifestyles need, and the environment instead of using standardized designs.
We perfect the designs to help us in our daily life without violating the thermal equilibrium of the ADU. The height of the ceiling, proportion of the window, and the location of the rooms are modified to mitigate heat accumulation in the rooms and promote natural ventilation when the weather is hot. Even the choice of material is tailored and the finishes and assemblies are selected to be able to withstand the heat exposure and seasonal temperature variations.
Budget and Timeline Alignment
Planning reconciles design choices and viable budgets and schedules. All phases are outlined in order to minimize uncertainty. Acute sequencing facilitates smoother project implementation.
ADU development is structured and foresighted with professional planning. Our group supports the progress of ADU projects by focusing on utilities, the situation on site, weather, and time schedules to make sure that the projects are developed in a confident and consistent manner.
