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After beating out two other remodel bids, because of the team, vision, and value, Yari, Luis, and team transformed our outdated bathroom into a clean, usable, and comfortable space.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.
Sunnyvale offers a special blend of post-war habitats, infill development and properties that were influenced by decades of incremental development, similar to the neighborhoods around Sunnyvale Town Center and the historic Sunnyvale Heritage Park. Our group understands that the ADU planning in this area should consider the narrow side yards, small rear setbacks, and how the heat stays on paved residential streets throughout the hot summer days—a challenge well-known near the Sunnyvale Baylands as well. The change of the seasons leads to cooler evenings and short cold snaps during winter, which should also imprint how the spaces have to be planned to make it comfortable and effective.
We go to ADU design in Sunnyvale by beginning with the manner of site behavior instead of using common templates. The exposure to the sun, air movement and closeness to the neighboring buildings are considered early, which helps in making the decisions regarding the layouts. With these aspects in mind, we design ADUs that will not get too uncomfortable during warm years, will work effectively all year round, and will fit well in the developed residential landscapes.
Personalized ADU Design Approach
Each ADU project in Sunnyvale is subject to a design approach encompassing the design of the property and the household. Our group does not believe in standardized layouts but rather concentrates on solutions which react to the site conditions, goals of lifestyle and long term use. Individualization guarantees that the ADU operates in the desired direction instead of compromising in the future.
Adapting to Property Constraints
Design options are affected by lot size, setbacks and adjacent construction. We modify layouts to fit in these constraints. Sophisticated planning eases the approvals.
A Comfort and Efficiency Balance
The thermal comfort is also taken into account in personalized design. The placement of windows, the height of ceilings, and the orientation of rooms are some of the ways of controlling heat. There is no undue complexity in dealing with comfort.
Learning How the Space Will Be Utilized
Our starting point is the identification of the overall purpose of the ADU. Function is followed by design decisions but not assumptions. This transparency defines layout and spatial priorities.
An individual approach leads to ADUs that are being purposeful. In case design is based on actual needs, there will be better long-term satisfaction.

Practical ADU Layout Development
Practical layout development would be done before the finalization of drawings to ensure that the ADU works under real conditions. The layouts in the climate of Sunnyvale should minimize the heat accumulation in the environment, besides accommodating the daily activities. Layouts in our team are balanced in terms of openness, privacy, and efficiency.
- Clear Functional Zoning: There is distinct living, sleeping and utility space. This enhances usability and privacy. Planned designs promote everyday comfort.
- Natural Airflow Planning: Plans promote inter-ventilation where feasible. Breathing facilitates the maintenance of temperature. Without over-cooling, comfort increases.
- Efficient Movement Paths: Passages are kept to the minimum. The square footage available to usable space is increased. Movement is natural and instinctive.
- Future Adaptability: Layouts are meant to be developed with time. Environments are able to adapt to evolving requirements. The plan is preconditioned by longevity.
Experiential layout development eliminates frustration in the future. ADUs prove to be more successful in the long run when their layouts are based on actual use.
Small ADU Space Optimization
Space optimization is necessary in Sunnyvale where the ADUs cover a small area. We concentrate on the layouts that are most optimum in terms of area utilization and comfort and movement. Livability is supported by effective use of space without congestion. We decrease wastage circulation and partitions.
Open layouts enable movement of light and air into the space to a greater degree. The planning of storage, furniture placement and functional zones is done jointly. This combined design approach ensures that interiors are arranged and flexible. Even small ADUs will not be confined when the space is used properly.
Our Team Brings Experience to Every ADU Design
Our team combines practical experience of designing ADUs within such settings as Sunnyvale, where context of space, climate, and neighborhood collide. We know the influence of minor design choices in comfort level, approvals and the building's construction results. Through experience, we get to foresee the challenges even before they occur.
We liaise planning and design solutions and make sure that there is a continuity of ideas to the final product of layouts. Heat management, airflow and usability are not taken individually but as a single aspect. This will result in ADUs that are convenient, comfortable, and lasting.
