Chris Grippi and his team are on point with their scheduling and work! Finished my project in a timely manner. Chris Grippi has a great personality and professionalism. He was straight to the point with everything. I would definitely use Chris and his team again for future projects. He makes the process go so smooth with his relations with the inspectors and his team. Our team and patiens at the Point Loma Patient Consumer Coop thank Element Builders for such a gorgeous job!

Chris Grippi and the Element Builders crew are professional and extremely hard working. Chris completed our project on time just as promised and there were no surprises or extra charges even though the job ended up entailing a little more work than we originally thought. Element Builders offers 5 star service/work and I have already recommended them for two other projects.
