Called Cornejo’s Builders after seeing their beautiful work on Tik Tok. Spoke to the owner regarding an ADU project. Alex always returned my calls, explained throughly how the project would be completed.
Love how his company is an all in one stop. They definitely handle everything from getting permits, architect, plumbing, electrical etc. Turn key ready, his prices are very reasonable and is willing to work around your budget.
Alex was very understanding when I explained why I had to put a hold on the the project. He definitely treats his customers like family.

Had a truly great experience with Alex. Cornejo’s Builders just completed converting my crawlspace/basement into an ADU (studio with new bathroom and kitchen).
What made the experience even more valuable was that the owner himself (Alex) came over for a consultation. Other companies just send their sales reps and most of the time they don’t even know anything. Feeling important is always a positive I can’t wait to work with them again.
I highly recommend them. You can tell Alex is passionate about what he does, his clients, and his company.
