My experience with OC Home Builders was top tier. I wanted to install new windows to help soundproof my bedroom from my neighbor’s AC unit, and they helped me get the job done. America and Dereck were both friendly and skilled at their jobs. They were not pushy. The installation went smoothly without hiccups, and now I can’t hear my neighbor’s AC at all. I highly recommend them to anyone and will be turning to them for future work.

We had an excellent experience completing our whole home remodel with OC Home Builders. I have already recommended them to my neighbors, my closest friends and family. This is a hard working, honest contractor with talented craftsmen who take pride in their product. This local, family business came highly recommended from our architect and we could not be happier with how they brought our plans to life. Every aspect of our home was remodeled. OC Home Builders changed our floor plan, made our home structurally sound, replaced all plumbing and electrical wiring, replaced the roof, replaced insulation, new walls, new hardwood floors, bathrooms and a kitchen completely reconstructed-literally everything! OC Home Builders was always incredibly organized and kept me and my husband up-to-date on our options, the progress of the build and the next steps. Jim is a talented and experienced contractor who runs a tight ship and has great relationships with his team. I always felt like my home was being built to the highest standards, with attention to detail and with beauty and precision in mind. America was the project manager and the person we most often interfaced with. I cannot thank her enough for always answering my questions, helping me make informed decisions for all aspects of our home, and keeping me in the loop on all of the activity and improvements being made. They were always flexible with us as we made decisions and they were helpful when troubleshooting the issues that naturally arise in a project of this size. We now live in our dream home!

OC Home Builders, remodeled our entire home and garage. They have been professional throughout and communicated from start to finish. We are updated on our project progress with emails, text and photos. If there are any issues, we are notified immediately. We are happy with the work they have done and am optimistic that it will do great on the market. I highly recommend them.

I have used oc home builders before and would use them again and again. I needed the floors redone after a poor job by a different company. I could tell the difference at the end. The edge work around the transitions were so nice and even. The baseboards were taken off and put back on and they still look great. Amazing work.

I hired OC Home Builders Inc. to build an ADU for me. Their service has been great. Jim and America did a good job keeping the project moving and taking care of issues as they arose. In particular I felt they kept me well informed about what was going on with the job as it progressed. Jim made some great suggestions along the way to improve the finished product. This is a family company and I felt I got to know and appreciate all of them during the course of the project. They all work very hard to get the job done. As a homeowner, I highly recommend this company to anyone who needs a general contractor for major constructions work.
Julie L. | Huntington Beach | 10/6/2023
OC Home Builders, Inc. is a family run business. America and her husband Jim, split the job with America running the administrative financial end of the business and Jim running the construction. My wife and I could not be more thankful for the absolutely professional service we received from them. They were efficient, thoughtful, precise, well priced, and most importantly honest. The prices they quoted us did not change, and they were up front with any changes that had to be made and what if anything they would cost. OC Homebuilders, Inc., utilized their close relationships with suppliers to ensure the quality of all products was high and the cost was low. Our brand new kitchen could not look any better and it is all thanks to the work of America, Jim, their entire family and team. I would recommend them without hesitation for any upcoming project you have planned for your home!!
Rick N. | Fountain Valley | 9/5/2023
From day one, America was very patient and went above and beyond to explain how remodeling projects work. She assisted us in getting our building plans approved all without any commitment from us to select her company as our builder! Ultimately, we selected OC Home Builders because they checked all of our boxes: customer service, quality of work, great reputation, and competitive pricing. Throughout the process, America and Jim were very transparent. It was reassuring that changes to our project were warmly received by America and Jim, who stressed how important it was for us to be happy. The job was done exceptionally well, with minimal noise, dust and disruption. The crew (Paul, Derrick, Clay, Chase, David) was friendly, talented, professional and punctual, always taking time to explain where the project was at and what to expect. We are so incredibly happy with our new kitchen and open floor plan! So many more great things to say about OC Home Builders. Thank you again!

We remodeled our kitchen and vanity with OC Home Builders. The scope included new custom cabinets. America and Jim were great to work with. They always kept us up to date on what was happening next and any challenges. The work progresses smoothly and efficiently. They are a family business and a tight team so everyone knows what they need to do and when, with Jim providing oversight. The worksite was kept clean and orderly. I highly recommend them.
Mark B. | Huntington Beach | 10/26/2022
Excellent, communication, regular check-ins, flexible as project progressed. Would definitely recommend and use again.
Debbie V. | Huntington Beach | 10/20/2022
OC home builders are top notch. I’ve used them for major construction as well as minor
issue. I’m sure I’ll use them again in the future.
Sarah D. | Irvine | 10/19/2022
OC Home Builders did a fabulous job on my bathroom remodel. They have high attention to detail, great communication, they were very clean and consciences and do beautiful work. I am very pleased with my services.
Ken M. | Seal Beach | 1/3/2022
We did a major addition to our home. It was 2 stories, included a kitchen, new roof line, dining room, and facade. OCHB did the entire job, from the new foundations they poured up to the last shingle on the roof. OC Home Builders was outstanding. The reason they’re so good is it’s a team effort: the husband, Jim, is a detail-oriented, no-nonsense, high-quality contractor. And his wife, America, is the customer service. It’s a perfect combo. Jim gets it done right, and America makes sure you’re brought along, and your concerns are heard. Then they have their 2 sons doing a lot of the work, and they’re just great. Good, kind boys that are really hard working. Their other employees, David and Paul are also way above par. Good people and really detail oriented-no-shortcuts-type of folks. Anyway, we’ve used them multiple times and their work has never failed. From a cost perspective, we found them to be right in-line with the majority. Not cheap, but not expensive…but with the excellent product, it’s a much higher value.

Great. This is the second time we have hired Jim and America – they do terrific work.

Patrick | Fountain Valley | 11/01/2021
We’re 95% done and I’m very happy with the results. Some of the fixtures that I ordered are back ordered, otherwise we’d most likely be finished. But every step of the way, both America and Jim have been very professional and helpful. I’ve come to trust them and appreciate their suggestions! They’ve communicated well with me and have been flexible enough to occasionally work around my schedule. I will be doing more remodeling in the next couple of years and will definitely be calling them to do more work for me!
Drew | Long Beach | 10/31/2021
OC Home Builders remodeled the interior of our home (kitchen, two bathrooms, one laundry room, structural upgrades, fireplace) and everyone on their team worked incredibly hard to complete our project. They worked great with city inspectors and have great relationships with them. America and Jim were available whenever we had questions and always gave great value for their work. They were willing to work with other contractors and be flexible to adjust to our schedule. Their entire team takes a lot of pride in their work and they want to make their clients happy. We would definitely recommend to others.
Margaret | Seal Beach | 10/26/2021
We had OCHB remodel our bathroom. From the first meeting until the completion of the project we found them to be an excellent company. America and Jimmy were always available to answer questions and responded in a timely fashion. Their cost was reasonable, their work was excellent, and their communication was even better! Every step of the way we were informed about the next day’s project, when their staff would arrive and any adjustments in time that needed to be made. Their workers and sub -contractors were also very good. We enjoyed working with them and were very happy how the bathroom turned out. We highly recommend them.
Jane F. | Lakewood | 10/21/2021
Excellent. It was a long process but Jim and America Fischer were supportive and professional. America accompanied us on buying expeditions for tile and vanities and always found the answers we needed. Jim always took the time to answer our questions in an informative way, explaining details, code requirements, and the logistics involved. The project was finished in a timely manner despite the materials/supply chain delays we are experiencing these days. Everyone we worked with was professional, courteous, understanding, and knowledgeable.
Matthew D. | Costa Mesa | 4/8/2021
It was truly AMAZING to work with OC Home Builders! From the very start, Jim and America were extremely responsive and flexible about our plans and goals for the kitchen reno (and were patient while we re-worked plans with our designer which greatly impacted the scope of the project). They offered great guidance for workarounds to fit our design goals and were knowledgeable and helpful throughout. It wasn’t until we finalized all details and started the project that we could really appreciate the extent of the professionalism and communication – each person on the OC Home Builders team showed up to do their part as scheduled, we always knew what stage of the project we were in, and they were very conscious of keeping our house clean and the project contained (which was a major win because we continued living and working at home for the entire duration and my wife was extremely pregnant at the time.) We even added a few additional items to the overall project and they were clear about the pricing and timelines for those as well. There were never any negative surprises or “gotchas” with this team – and best of all, they finished ahead of schedule (on the day my wife’s water broke)!!! We are extremely happy with the results in our kitchen and look forward to working with OC Home Builders again when we tackle our next home project.
Mark O. | Fountain Valley | 1/8/2019
Great quality craftsmanship and easy to work with people. Three years later the
workmanship remains solid.
Anna D. | Huntington Beach | 2/21/2016
My husband and I had been dreaming about remodeling our tiny little beach cottage for the 4 years since we bought it, but were nervous because we heard horror stories of general contractors taking twice the time to complete projects as promised, overcharging for every nit picky item and coming in way over budget, and not hiring qualified people to do the job. We reached out to three different General Contractors before starting this project. One took a week to reply to us. One never replied at all, and OC Homebuilders replied within a few HOURS, with Jim at our door to give us a price estimate for the project within a couple of days. Every single concern we had about General Contractors Jim proved otherwise. His team finished the project on time, on budget, and most importantly, kept us completely informed the entire time so there were NO surprises and my husband and I felt comfortable while the project was underway. Jim’s crew were the nicest, hard-working group of people… from the tile guys Freddy and Chuy to the painter Dave and the Jack-of-all-Trades Paul, we trusted every single one of them and the results are fantastic. We love that OC Homebuilders is a true family business, with America keeping us informed and on track, and their two grown sons working alongside their Dad. They gave us hope for the future generation, because they were the two most polite, hard-working young men. We have already referred a friend to Jim for a high-end bathroom remodel, and hope to send many more his way. Thank you to OC Homebuilders for making our dream beach cottage a reality.
Bill S. | San Juan Capistrano | 2/21/2016
They performed great on all facets of the job, from estimate to completion. Always on time and cleaned up each afternoon. Excellent workmanship.
