Feraru & Associates tackled my large exterior project in the Berkeley hills this summer, which involved: Exterior siding removal & replacement on 3 sides of my 3-story home. Dry rot removal & repair Remove old & replace 6 new construction windows Permit acquisition & approvals, addressing all requirements such as installation of an earthquake emergency gas valve Painting the house As this was my first time embarking on such a big project, and my first time working with Feraru & Associates, I was cautiously optimistic yet nervous when we began. However, throughout the duration of the 8-week project, Sorin Feraru built up a level of trust through his responsiveness & follow-through that I, as a client, felt increasingly reassured that the job would be completed successfully. Construction started on time, and was indeed completed within the expected time frame. I really appreciated Sorin’s good communication throughout; I felt I was informed of what to expect in advance of it happening. He was calm, reassuring, always available to answer questions and was incredibly quick to respond to any concern. On a project of this magnitude, inevitably new problems were discovered: Sorin & crew were able to tackle issues as they arose and offer good solutions. Sorin displayed excellent problem solving abilities and would call in the right personnel when needed to resolve the issue. I also appreciated that they worked smart & safe. Sorin brought in an extensive scaffolding system to keep the work environment safe. The friendly and hard working crew would dedicate themselves each day with energy & commitment. At the end of the project, they cleaned up the area nicely and disposed of all debris. Overall, I’m pleased with the result and feel the price I paid was fair and reasonable for the scope of work required. I’d be happy to call on Feraru & Associates again for any future construction needs!

Sorin and his crew completed an extreme makeover to our beautiful home. The project was finalized in almost 4 months. His designer/architect was a real problem-solver and a very talented designer, and she helped us with city permits. The crew was just amazing to work with; responsive and easy going, always on time, and eager to please. Sorin was also a fantastic problem-solver—we received good advice, and the overall cost was more than reasonable. We are happy we decided to work with him, and we are happy to recommend him.

We just completed some home renovations using Feraru and Associates as our contractor. They did an excellent job and were very easy to deal with. Sorin Feraru worked with us to explain and scope the project, and the main supervisor of the work Valeriu was wonderful to work with throughout the project. I highly recommend working with them.

I highly recommend Feraru & Associates for renovation projects. I worked with Sorin + Valeriu for a few months on a kitchen remodel in my home in Berkeley, along with an architect that I hired as well. I evaluated a few firms in the area and chose Sorin based on his work nearby and his professionalism in talking about the needs of this particular project, and the competitiveness of his bid. Valeriu and his crew did excellent work and were extremely professional in the several weeks that they were in the house. They answered every one of my questions or concerns promptly and professionally. They also managed me, letting me know when materials were needed or where there were gaps in my specifications or other “uh-ohs” that came up in the work. I’d definitely work with them again for remodel work, and would recommend you do, too.

I recently had the pleasure of collaborating with Feraru & Associates Building and Design for a major renovation project on my home. As a family-owned business, their commitment to quality and personalized service stood out to me from the start. Before making my decision, I carefully researched and compared several construction companies, and Feraru & Associates Building and Design consistently rose to the top. Leading the team was Sorin Feraru, a highly skilled contractor whose professionalism and expertise made the entire process smooth and stress-free. From the initial consultation to the final touches, Sorin and his team exceeded my expectations every step of the way. The project itself was quite complex, involving a complete overhaul of my kitchen, bathrooms, windows replacement, and installation of a new roof. Despite the challenges, Feraru & Associates tackled each aspect with precision and care, ensuring that every detail was executed flawlessly. What truly impressed me was their dedication to fairness in pricing without compromising on quality. I found their rates to be competitive, and the value they provided was unmatched. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome of the renovation — every room feels transformed, and the craftsmanship is exceptional. Throughout the project, the entire team maintained a high level of professionalism and respect for my home. They were punctual, courteous, and always took precautions to ensure a clean and safe work environment. Whether it was wearing masks or covering floors, their attention to detail was evident in every aspect of their work.

We just completed a large project in Berkeley with Feraru & Associates Building and Design. We finished a second story addition, added a master suite, remodel the existing kitchen and the existing bathrooms. They made the entire process painless and we are happy to recommend them. From the first site visit, through the planning and construction they offer solutions and responses to all of our problems and questions. They were able to offer the full package that covered planning, interior design, permits and complete construction. The entire team was amazing and easy to work with, always on time, respectful, and ready to help.
