The ideal contractor excels at communication, while shielding the homeowner from the hassles of construction. Tal Kedmy of Sharp Builders serves as the one point-person dedicated to every project under his watch, whatever its size, from concept to completion. And, should the need arise, Tal calls upon architect Fernando Sevilla to create clean, contemporary, yet out-of-the-ordinary designs.

Tal has a dozen employees on payroll, from framers to painters. This gives Tal maximum control over the quality and timing of each project. Tal notes: “Our workers are hardworking and very responsible. They care about the property, respect the client, and know how to be safe.”

Sharp Builders also excels at green building and design. They retrofitted the Eco Station, a wildlife shelter in Culver City, and converted its large warehouse into a new school—all with eco-friendly practices and materials.

Tal’s ability to accurately bid a job was confirmed by his references. He explains, “I don’t want the client to have any surprises with the budget.”

We visited a home on which Tal was putting the finishing touches. The homeowner and Tal bantered easily, but when we asked about Tal’s work, she became serious: “Tal truly wants his clients to be happy. We came up with a plan together, and he has been fully committed to making it happen.”

Tip: Hiring a contractor is like having a brief marriage. It’s important to choose the right one for you.

I had interviewed several builders to refurbish our 1926 four-unit apartment complex and none seemed to be a good match for one reason or another. We didn’t have architectural plans and needed to address issues as they arose. We were on a tight budget as the complex is in a rent-control district of Los Angeles. I read about Tal in the neighbor2neighbor booklet and thought “why not?” From the start, Tal seemed honest and caring and was a “can do” kind-of-person. Throughout the process, Tal continued to be attentive and personable. Although the project took a bit longer than I had anticipated, we stayed on budget and are very pleased with the end result. He is representative of his staff and crew, who are also a kind and trusting group. The project turned out more beautiful than I had imagined and he is now assisting our tenants on their “move in” requests. His follow-up has been excellent. I recommended him to my neighbors and he is now building their two-story home on my street! They, too, interviewed several builders and felt Tal was their best choice. It was true what I read about Tal in neighbor2neighbor. He really does pick up the phone!

I adore Tal. He stands behind everything he does. My kids used Sharp Builders for their house and had such a good experience, I used him to renovate our place and do an addition. The architect made sure that the addition matched the rest of our house. The job came in on time and the pricing was very fair. His crew is courteous, very professional and clean. I’m a nut about cleanliness since I have babies around – it has to be safe for the kids.

Sharp Builders completely designed and rebuilt my home. I’ve used other contractors and we weren’t on speaking terms at the end of the job. With Tal it was an amazing experience. He makes everything ok all the time! You get a lot of bang for your buck. I traveled a lot during the remodel and I’d let Tal makes choices for me, knowing it would be done in good taste.

Sharp Builders designed and rebuilt our house. Tal really cares about his clients. Other builders may do a good job, but their egos get in the way. Tal is always available and takes the time to talk to you about your ideas and concerns.
There were so many old bits and pieces I wanted to incorporate in my home. He was able to be creative with us. We got so lucky using Tal!

We did a partial remodel with Sharp Builders. We were out of town, so it was great that they could handle everything from design to finish with one point person overseeing everything. They did a great job. Their architect, crews, subs, everyone. Tal was good at keeping it on schedule and on budget. If something unexpected happened, Tal would take care of it. I recommend these guys. My sister-in-law is using them now.

Sharp Builders did an almost total remodel for me. Everything was excellent. His workers were great, very tidy. He always followed up with any subcontractors. Tal always returns your calls promptly and has good follow up on the work. His pricing is competitive – a bit below some other bids I got. Whenever a problem arose, Tal would say “no problems, just solutions!"
