Why American Reliable

Nothing about your project should be a surprise.

A remodel changes how a household lives for years. That is why we care about the process as much as the result: clear answers, a clean site, a team accountable for the details behind the drywall.

About the company
  1. 01

    A written scope before a single tool comes out

    Every estimate is itemized — materials, labor, allowances, schedule — so you can compare it line by line and nothing changes once work begins.

  2. 02

    Permits pulled and inspections met under our license

    Plans, plan check and every inspection with LADBS or your city building department are handled by us, under CSLB #1155602. You are never sent to the counter.

  3. 03

    One coordinator who knows your job by heart

    A dedicated project coordinator runs the schedule and the trades and is your single point of contact from the first walkthrough to the final punch list.

  4. 04

    Built for how a family actually lives

    Many of our projects create room for more than one generation — a suite for a parent, an ADU for an adult child. We design for daily life, not just the photograph.

How We Work

Five stages. The same on every job.

A single bathroom or a ground-up ADU follows the same path — so you always know what happens next and who is responsible for it.

  1. 01

    Consultation

    We walk the property with you, listen to how you actually live in the space, and give straight feedback on what is realistic for the house and the budget.

  2. 02

    Design & written scope

    Layout, materials and selections are locked in, then priced line by line. You approve a detailed written estimate before anything is scheduled.

  3. 03

    Permits & approvals

    Plans, plan check and inspections are handled under our license with LADBS or your city building department — including hillside and ADU reviews.

  4. 04

    Construction

    One project coordinator runs the schedule and the trades. Floors protected, dust contained, site cleaned daily, and you hear from us before you have to ask.

  5. 05

    Completion

    Final inspection signed off and the punch list closed with you in person. Warranty available. Call for details.

“We recently completed a room addition along with a full roof customization, and the results are amazing. The team was professional, organized, and easy to communicate with throughout the entire project. The new room looks like it has always been part of the house, and the new roof was installed perfectly. Highly recommend their services!”
