Rachel5/5

We built a fully custom home from the ground up with Goral Construction and cannot recommend them highly enough. From start to finish, Arturo Silberstein was exceptional. He is extremely communicative, solutions-oriented, and genuinely invested in the outcome. There was never a moment where we asked for a change or addition to the project that wasn't met with enthusiasm and a can-do attitude. He navigated unexpected challenges with professionalism and transparency that you rarely encounter in this industry, and our trust in him never wavered. Daniel and Arturo's vision and standards are evident in every detail of the finished home. The craftsmanship is outstanding and completely tailored to our needs. If you are considering building with Goral, do it. Arturo and Daniel will be your partners through it all We hope to be able to work on more projects in the future and wouldn't think of going anywhere else.

Jason5/5

Building a custom home is often described as stressful and overwhelming — but Daniel and Arturo made the experience a collaborative and rewarding journey.

We interviewed multiple builders but I knew right away that Daniel and Arturo were the guys. Daniel is not only a builder but also a trained architect, which gave us an incredible advantage throughout the design and construction process. His eye for detail, functionality, and aesthetics helped shape our vision into a home that we could not be happier with.

Daniel and Arturo approached our project with the heart of PARTNERS, not just a contractor. They walked us through every decision, big and small, with care and clarity. If they said they were going to do something, they did it and then some. Their long-standing relationships with quality subcontractors ensured the project ran smoothly, stayed on schedule, and came in on budget.

I can honestly say I do not think I would build another home with anyone but Daniel and Arturo. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found them, and we are forever grateful for the integrity, talent, and heart they brought to our project.

S.5/5

We hired Goral Construction for a major remodel of our home, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience and the final result. This was a complex project with multiple subcontractors, city building department approvals, and plenty of unknowns along the way.

From start to finish, the Goral team helped us navigate every step of the process. Communication was clear and reassuring, especially when unexpected issues came up. Daniel and Arturo were incredible to work with—they were always thoughtful, solution-oriented, and genuinely committed to making sure things were done right. It felt like they had a solution for every problem, and they consistently went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and satisfied with the decisions being made.

What really sets Goral Construction apart is that their support didn’t end when the project was finished or when final payments were made. They’ve continued to be responsive and helpful with follow-up questions and requests, which we truly appreciate.

In the end, they delivered a beautifully executed remodel that we’re very happy with. We would absolutely recommend Goral Construction to anyone taking on a major renovation or new construction and looking for a team they can trust.

Wendy5/5

When we were looking for land to purchase to build our home, Daniel Silberstein was always our first call to take a look and advise us. We would not have embarked on this project without Goral Construction being right there with us and building for us.

Daniel and Arturo are first and foremost trustworthy, honest and dependable. Daniel is an architect as well as a builder and is therefore able to give immeasurable advice and solutions to issues that may arise on site. Often, what is on the plan does not always transfer to the construction process easily, but they are right there finding a solution to best and safely construct the area to achieve a stellar end result.

They visit the property every day and manage and guide their contractors expertly. Their contractors are extremely reliable and capable and have worked with them for many years.

We absolutely loved this process, unusual as it may sound, but only due to the expertise of Daniel and Arturo who were right by our sides from beginning to end. They truly leave a piece of their hearts at each project they undertake and there is no other construction company we would have done this with.

Tamara5/5

We recently had the pleasure of working with Daniel and Arturo at Goral Construction and were extremely satisfied with the results. Everything was handled professionally and efficiently. They paid great attention to detail and made sure my vision became a reality.
Communication with the them was excellent throughout our project. They were always quick in responding to any questions or concerns I had.
The project was also completed within the agreed-upon timeframe which was very important to us .

Sharon5/5

We had an INCREDIBLE experience with Goral construction. From initial consultation about our project to the final walk-through, everything was professional and smooth sailing.

We really appreciated the excellent communication; always responsive throughout the entire project and kept us informed every step of the way.
They were truly able to capture our ideas and deliver our dream home within our timeframe and budget.

Would highly recommend Goral Construction—true professionals who are committed to delivering top notch results.

Rafael5/5

Goral was great in every aspect of the work performed on my house. They provided exceptional service and completed their work ahead of promised timelines. I was very pleased with how the project turned out.

Mark5/5

We received 5 different bids for our home remodel. Ended up choosing Goral Construction. Choosing Daniel and his son Arturo was the best decision we made all year. From design choices to keeping us on time as well as in budget, Goral Construction made the experience great. They were involved in every aspect of the project. Attention to detail was evident throughout the project. We have been back in the house for 3 months now and still amazed how great the house looks. I actually miss the the team from Goral. Can’t wait to one day use Goral again. Best, Mark

PS— This is the only review I have ever done. They were that great!

Cary5/5

Goral construction was everything I hoped for from a general contractor for my first home build. I wanted to be involved from a design and budget perspective and not involved when it came to sourcing sub contractors, overseeing work, project management etc. They were able to provide exactly that and I have no doubt that they would have been flexible with whatever level of involvement I wanted.

Reliable, honest, detail oriented, client focused, organized are just a few words I would use to describe Goral. They have an extensive rolodex of subcontractors that meet their lofty standards of professionalism, skill, and pricing fairness. I always knew that I could trust them going up to bat for me from step one all the way through to final inspection. Building or remodeling a home is often the biggest investment one will make in their life and I can virtually guarantee that you will be in no better hands than Goral for whatever your build entails.

Soraya5/5

I hired Goral construction in 2017 to build my custom home in the Del Mar Mesa community. I interviewed 3 other builders and settled with GC. Daniel showed genuine interest in helping me with pre-construction hurdles I was facing to get my lot graded and plans approved by the city.
He spent a great deal of time meeting with my architect, my concrete frame contractor and my project manager before I hired him. This showed me how caring and trustworthy he is.
Throughout the whole construction process, Daniel was present and available. He held my hand the whole time, making decision making easier and the process clear and predictable. He uses
the best sub contractors in the industry, delivering quality work every time.
I will definitely rehire GC for my future construction projects.
