Introduction: StarCon General Contractors has been building and renovating homes, as well as building and improving commercial properties since 1993. We specialize in custom designs which call for creativity and attention to detail. StarCon maintains constant communication with the architect and the property owner to help foresee problems before they occur. This also helps to insure a beautiful finished product completed on time and within budget. StarCon does much of the construction with their own employees. The remaining items are subcontracted. We have a strong group of subcontractors, all of whom have been working with us for many years. Because of StarCon's long relationship with its subcontractors, we receive a high level of quality and performance. All of our subcontractors are required to have Worker's Compensation insurance (as required by law) and General Liability insurance. StarCon carries both Worker's Compensation and General Liability insurance as well, with a minimum of $2,000,000 of coverage. StarCon also offers complete design and architectural services. We work closely with our architects and designers during the design and drawing phases to assure an accurate plan, and to keep construction costs in line with budget requirements. StarCon's attention to detail, organizational skills, and creativity, are what have helped make us the successful company that we is today. No detail is too small. The president of the company, Steven Margolis, has 30 years experience in the construction industry. His first five years were spent running and coordinating hotel additions and renovations for the company who owned Ramada and Howard Johnson hotel chains, and many Sheraton and Marriott hotels. This experience covered twenty-four cities and eight states. He then came back to Los Angeles to start StarCon.

StarCon remodeled our entire Woodland Hills house. Every room and major element (including pool and extensive hardscaping) was reworked and rebuilt. Steve Margolis was much more than a General Contractor. He offered valuable design advice, especially in the kitchen, bathrooms, library and pool remodel. His work at all times was excellent. He kept us apprised of his schedule on a weekly basis, and if adjustments were required was always in touch and available. He worked well with our architect, but did not hesitate to offer his independent input. If any unavoidable problems arose he was quick to suggest alternatives, along with the positives and negatives associated. He continually supervised his sub-contractors and insured that the property was kept clean and tidy throughout. His work helped us years later sell our house for a record price (total price and price per square foot). I have absolutely no hesitation in offering StarCon and Steve Margolis my strongest recommendation.

I have used Starcon General Contractors for several different remodels on my home. Each project went smoothly and was completed beyond my expectations! Steve also suggested different changes to my original plans which ended up as a much better choice than my first thought! I would not hesitate to use this company and in fact, would suggest that you do so!

StarCon has been excellent in the remodel of our kitchen and master bath. The design and the entire process of the remodel under the direct supervision of Steve Margolis was seamless on budget and completed on time. Most projects have some issues, none existed with StarCon with Steve's management of the project.

StarCon remodeled our kitchen, family room and did a great job at reasonable prices. They made tons of great suggestions that saved us time and money. I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants quality and value in the same package.
