"Dream Builders remodeled our whole house. Prior to selecting Dream Builders we interviewed three other contractors including numerous references for each of them. We picked Kathe and Mike for our project for two reasons. First, their previous clients gave them overwhelmingly positive recommendations. Secondly, after a couple meetings with them and their staff, it was obvious to us that they were committed to providing a comprehensive service that would meet our needs and desires as well as our budget. Based on the innovative design, meticulous planning and scheduling of the project, and the quality and craftsmanship of the construction, we are very pleased with our new house and glad that we chose Dream Builders."

"We could not be happier with the way our kitchen remodel came out. When we started, we thought it would just be different to look at, and probably more easy to work in. Now that it's done, it is so much more than that. The additional space, the more usable surfaces, the more practical locations for everything, and the removal of the overhanging cabinets. It is more beautiful than we imagined. And, all of the DreamBuilders Team of Kathe, Mike, Christina, and Paul were there to help out immediately, whenever there was a snag. We could not be happier." Jim and Laurie Beck, Rancho Murrietta, CA
Our kitchen remodel is stunning and we get nothing but positive comments from friends.
When details didn't work out as originally planned, DB immediately made it right, no complaints or questions asked.
When our extra replacement wood flooring came, it used a different system to snap together. They told Mike that it wouldn't work with our outdated style. Not one to take 'NO" for an answer, he personally reworked the pieces at home until they fit exactly.
Kathe and Christina were so patient and a delight to work with. Kathe helped us wade through the sea of choices and was ever mindful of our budget when making suggestions. Nancy Ottum and Bruce Wright, Davis, CA

We loved our river view home in Folsom, but for ten years we fantasized about the time when the interior ambiance would suit our taste. Kathe and MIke helped turn our dream into a reality, creating fantastic home decor in harmony with us. The process was not only fun, but resulted in gaining two new friends.

"Before we started the project, DreamBuilders gave me a list of people that they had done projects for and all of those people highly recommended them. Now that DreamBuilders has put this whole new space in, I can truly entertain in the style that I want to. It's part of me because it was designed with me in mind. DreamBuilders truly makes your dreams come true!" -Linda and Gary Cook, Citrus Heights

Client Testimonials
How often can you hire a contractor and they do such a good job and are such great people that you consider them friends afterwards? This was our experience with Kathe, Mike, and the crew at Dream Builders. We decided to renovate our kitchen, but we were leery of the procedure as we had heard many horror stories. After receiving several bids that were way out of our price range, we almost gave up on the remodeling idea. Then we were fortunate enough to meet Mike and Kathe Russell of Dream Builders at the Home Show in Sacramento.
Kathe came to our home and gave a free consultation. She spent quite a bit of time and discussed how we could work at maximizing space in our fairly small kitchen. One of the things we really liked about Dream Builders was they offered a lower-priced option where you select from a limited number of high-quality cabinets, granite counter tops and appliances, which they buy in bulk in order to get the price down. We loved the choices and the quality and it was nice to not be burdened with hundreds of options that can bog down the decision-making process. Certainly we had enough choices to pick what worked for us and our situation, but Dream Builders took much of the guess work out of the procedure. We then met with Mike and Kathe at their offices for a further consultation and proposal. Every last detail was put out on the table by them so there was no guessing or worrying. Their quote came in considerably lower than the others we were given. They made us feel like they were protecting us even before the project began. I believe, far too often, when hiring a contactor it can be an us versus them relationship. Right from the get go Kathe and Mike make sure you understand and feel it is a team effort to accomplish a mutual goal.
When the work started, Mike was right on top of things. He had a very precise schedule and watched over and ensured every detail was done correctly. There were numerous subcontractors, yet Mike always made sure they were there, did their job, and did their job well. Invariably on a project of this size issues come up, but Mike always resolved these immediately kept us informed and updated on every aspect of the project. As an example, at one point the hanging lamps we had picked out did not come in as promised by the light company. Kathe and Mike worked and pushed behind the scenes. In order to keep the project on time, they had us select a more expensive light that was more readily available and they paid the difference in cost.
Mike carefully picks his subcontractors, takes care of them, and ensures he oversees and takes responsibility for their work. We never had a problem with any subcontractor. The quality of their work, the products (cabinets, appliances, etc.), and the quality of the work of their subcontractors was superb. They are just good, honest, and trustworthy people. They truly care about their customers. They truly care about their work, their reputation, and your happiness. We cannot recommend them highly enough.

I did a complete kitchen remodel. Mike and Kathe took the stress out of the whole experience by being there and really listening to what I wanted. Sometimes I walk into my kitchen and I'm in awe as to how beautiful it really is. Kristie Philips, El Dorado Hills, CA
