Introduction: We are a fully licensed and bonded company, but most importantly, we are a company that cares about your home as much as you do. With a combined over 40 years of experience and hundreds of kitchen and full home remodels/redesigns, we offer a high quality experience and every project receives an assigned designer. Please see our FAQ section for pricing guidance. Home improvement is a passion. We’ve assembled a team that truly knows the satisfaction of maximizing the potential in a space. Whether you’re updating your kitchen design or adding a bathroom to your home, 5blox becomes fully invested in any project that comes across our drawing board. We specialize in whole home remodels or home redesigns, kitchen remodels and kitchen redesigns as well as bathroom remodels. Before we were 5blox, we gained our fair share of experience working for some of the largest companies in the home improvement industry. While there was a lot to learn about home remodels including kitchen remodels, bathroom remodels and everything in between, we became disoriented by the pushy sales tactics and poor customer service employed within the industry. Intuition taught us to believe in the value of communication and cooperation when creating a client’s vision. When it became clear that the rest of the industry didn’t agree with us, we decided to try things our own way. Five years later, we have yet to regret that choice, and we think our clients would agree.

We used 5blox for our Master Bathroom Remodel and it turned out beautifully. As first time home owners, we don't really know a lot about how things work, local codes, what looks good, etc. Fortunately, 5blox helped us through every step of the way. Look, 5blox isn't going to be super cheap, but you are going to get a team that will explain everything to you, stay in constant communication, and will even provide an interior designer to help you digitally build something so you know you'll love it before the work even starts. Everyone has to weigh their options carefully, but we are very happy that we chose 5blox!

We worked with 5Blox to remodel our primary bathroom and couldn't be happier with the result! Not only was the overall workmanship top notch, but the assistance in design led to some features we love that we wouldn't have considered ourselves. Additionally, in the thick of the renovation they were quick to take ownership and make fixes to any work that was done out of spec. From beginning to end, the 5Blox team was very clear & accurate with their pricing estimates and flexible in working around our schedule when we had travel come up during the project. From Barak, Tal, and David as project managers to Edgar and Orlando working on-site, everyone was extremely kind and considerate with their time (and particularly in handling our excitable dog throughout the process!) We recommend 5Blox and would love to work with them again on a future home project!

I was impressed with 5Blox from the first time they came to my home to discuss my Kithchen project. They did a detailed estimate right at my table. It clearly showed what was covered under the contract and what would be my additional expenses. They sent me a 3D design which I was able to make changes to be exactly what I wanted. They were fast, efficient and the work quality we very good. I just love how my Kitchen what a change from my old kitchen. I highly recommend 5blox

When I first reached out to Smart Homes, I received a phone call from Josh in a span of a couple of hours. He was friendly, upbeat and easy to talk to; all signs you want to see when establishing contact with a general contractor company. The following day, I met one of his colleagues, Gal, who happened to stop by my property to go over some of the projects I was interested in pursuing. Gal was exceptionally professional but also very personable. He talked at length about his process and shared advice on how to approach the renovations. The conversation felt smooth, easy and most importantly, collaborative. Obviously, as a layperson, I have no clue on how renovations/construction works. I just have an idea on what I want the final product to look like. That said, Gal does a great job of bridging his expertise and experience with what you want without condescending to you; a story that I have heard all too often from other friends with their contractors. I was quite impressed at the length of time he spent with me. He showed me photos from several projects from several stages to help me conceptualize how my project would unfold. Not once did our meeting ever feel rushed nor did I get the feeling that he was too busy to answer my questions. What really struck me the most was the fact that he was very upfront about how communication and respect was very important to him; that it’s incumbent for both parties (homeowner and contractor) to be able to work with one another in a professional manner. Gal made it clear that it doesn’t matter how much money is being offered to him to do a project. If you’re the type of person who is going to micromanage and create an environment that makes it difficult for him and his crew to do their job effectively, it’s not worth it to him. The point being, Gal made it clear that Smart Homes is based off of building relationships and selectively choosing projects that are a good fit for his team and of course, the homeowner. He’s not going to take a project for the sake of taking a project because of the money. I respect that as it is a core trait I look for in a contractor. My wife and I ended up moving in a different direction with our interior renovation. However, we’ve got an ADU project lined up in the near future. Given this company’s experience and expertise with ADU construction, we absolutely intend on reaching out to Smart Homes to potentially help us build this unit! Thanks Josh and Gal for a positive experience. I am sorry that we were unable to work together on this particular project but I am hopeful that perhaps we can collaborate on the bigger ADU project.

I was very pleased with my bathroom remodel by 5blox. Their price was not the highest of the bids, but their work quality looked the best. They were very hands on and transparent about planning and costs. They did a 3d rendering for me, based on my design specs and provided costs broken out by stage/milestone. They planned the project start and finish to align with supply chain delays around getting the materials, so there were no unnecessary pauses in construction. The finished product came out better than I expected.
