Our Client Testimonials
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.

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...

Nestled near landmarks such as the Dumbarton Bridge and the Union City BART station, Union City is located between the bay coastline and residential districts to the inland areas, and there are regions along the Alvarado, Decoto Road, and the foothill borders that have dissimilar climate of the year. These factors can be warmer summer seasons, intermittent humidity of the coast, and colder winter nights, which can all influence the performance of the detached structures with time. These aspects in small ADUs tend to result in overheating and lack of even indoor comfort or the retention of moisture when these aspects are not considered at the early stage. When working on any project, our group has a clear idea of the impact of the location and weather conditions of Union City on small residential buildings.
Sun exposure, wind patterns and the development around is studied to make decisions on orientation, layout, and the choice of material. Structures and planning are used to deal with heat control and airflow as opposed to dealing with it at the last moment. This makes up detached ADUs that are comfortable, efficient and reliable in seasonal fluctuations and they blend naturally with the Union City neighborhoods. Our Detached ADU Services in Union City are designed in accordance with actual environmental pressures, instead of using general solutions.
ADU Development Expertise
Successful development at ADU starts with the ability to comprehend the impact of planning decisions on the performance of the long term. Our team also introduces order and direction to the initial part of the development, making sure that each of the projects has a sound base.
Site and Use Evaluation
The way the property will facilitate a detached unit is evaluated by taking a close look at the points of access, the extent of spacing, and the manner the space will be utilized on a daily basis. Such early analysis assists in determining the possible constraints and avoids clashes in the process of construction and minimizes the necessity of making changes in the future.
Climate-Informed Planning
Layouts are also well thought out in terms of environmental exposure. The direction of the sun, the concentration of heat, air circulation, and shading all play a role in designing at the onset.
Co-ordinated Development Strategy
Our team has coordination of planning steps in a rational manner to eliminate delays and unnecessary revision. These stages are consecutive and do not slow down or become lost in the continuity.

Small Convention Construction, Residential
The construction of small residential units must be precise and well-coordinated. Our group is involved in building construction keeping in mind the site limitations, material performance, and environmental timing that is typical in Union City. This method advocates quality and efficiency.
We also supervise construction stages to stay on track with the progress. During the build, the heat exposure and moisture control, as well as curing conditions, are monitored. This practical management assists in sustaining the performance standards and keeping the projects on schedule.
We Guide You from Concept to Finished ADU
Our group helps to make a decision based on the initial ideas to the final building of the project and each stage remains in line with your objectives, the state of a property, and local needs. Explicit and predictable communication makes the expectations realistic, makes it clear what to do next, and assists in staying confident throughout project phases.
Remaining on site also enables our crew to react fast when situations evolve or when a problem occurs in planning or construction. This helps us to make changes because we are involved throughout and will not have to slow down on a strategy and we will not affect the quality. This practical engagement assists in safeguarding the sanctity of the work and can assist in reliable findings you can trust even after finishing the ADU.

The cheapest option for an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) is typically a prefabricated or modular unit, often called a "garage conversion" or "junior ADU" (JADU). These options minimize costs by using existing structures or smaller footprints. A JADU, which is limited to 500 square feet and can be created within an existing home or garage, avoids the expense of new foundation work and extensive site preparation. For homeowners in San Jose, Santa Clara, and Sunnyvale, CA, working with a local expert like Lecut Construction can help you navigate these cost-effective choices. Standard detached ADUs are more expensive due to separate construction, while attached ADUs fall in the middle. Always compare material and labor costs for your specific lot.
When building an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), homeowners often underestimate the complexity of local zoning laws and building codes. A frequent mistake is failing to secure proper permits before construction begins, which can lead to costly stop-work orders and fines. Another common error is ignoring setback requirements or maximum height restrictions, which can result in non-compliant structures that must be altered or removed. Many DIY builders also overlook the need for separate utility connections and fire safety upgrades, such as smoke alarms and egress windows. For a deeper look at these pitfalls, please refer to our internal article titled The Most Common Code Violations In DIY San Jose Remodels. Lecut Construction recommends consulting with a licensed professional to navigate these regulations and avoid costly errors.
For a standard 400 sq ft Accessory Dwelling Unit, the total timeline typically ranges from 10 to 14 months. This includes 3 to 4 months for design, permitting, and plan checks, followed by 7 to 10 months for actual construction. Site conditions, utility connections, and contractor availability can affect these durations. For specific guidance on local requirements and efficient project management, we recommend reviewing our internal article titled Accessory Dwelling Unit Services in Fremont. Lecut Construction emphasizes that thorough pre-construction planning is the most effective way to avoid delays and keep your project on schedule.
