News & Updates: Testimonials

Dear Jim: As you know, we recently sold our home. I just wanted to let you know how pleased we were with the house and how well it withstood eight years of use. First of all, we were very impressed with the quality of the construction and the attention that you paid to all of the subcontractors and to the materials used. It was clear to us that you really cared about building a quality product. As you know, I brought several people knowledgeable in the construction business by to see the house as it was being built, and they all agreed that the construction was topnotch. Additionally, we were...

To Whom It May Concern: I have known Jim Romani since acquiring my home in April of 1990. Mr. Romani was the builder and developer of my home as well as a few others in the Gold Hills community of Monrovia. In my association with Mr. Romani, I have found him to be an extremely reliable and conscientious person in whom I have complete trust as it relates to experiences in my home. As a builder/developer, I truly appreciate Mr. Romani’s extraordinary attention to detail and situations in which other builder/developers would not have the time or patience to become involved. Furthermore,...

Dear Mr. Romani: Talk about being an extremely satisfied customer! Just read the following. I want you to know how very impressed Marge and I are with your recent remodeling of our home. All the workmanship was outstanding and the quality of material used was the very best. One important fact was that all completion dates were met before or on time. We almost sold our home to purchase a new one, but we didn’t, and are glad now that we stayed here. In addition we almost hired another contractor before you came into the picture, and we didn’t, and we are very glad for that too. We...

To Whom It May Concern: This is a letter of recommendation for Jim Romani who built the residence we have been living in for a year. My husband and I had never wanted to build our own house – we were just too busy doing other things – so we entered this process rather reluctantly. We built to accommodate my 89 years old mother who was immigrating from Hong Kong. With just some vague ideas of the type of space we would need, we started to look for a builder. We were very fortunate to find Jim Romani, who had a house in Arcadia for sale at the time. We liked both the style and quality;...

To Whom It May Concern: We are delighted to provide a very strong recommendation for Jim Romani. The things that have stood out for us in our relationship with Jim are his integrity, his diligence in completing the job and the quality of his work. We contracted with Jim in December of 2003 to demolish our existing home and build a completely new home. We worked with Jim on a cost-plus basis, with Jim providing estimate bids of thirty-plus categories of budget items prior to construction. I mention the type of contract because Jim is scrupulously honest in working with his subcontractors to obtain...

To Whom it May Concern: I am pleased to write this letter of recommendation for Jim Romani, General Contractor in Arcadia, California who built our most recent residence. This was the third residence we have built, and was by far the most complicated and expensive home we have ever undertaken, over 5,000 square feet and costing more than 1.5 million exclusive of property. Because of these reasons we searched long and hard for a reputable contractor. Mr. Romani was brought to our attention by the loan department of Citizens Business Bank where I served as a director for some 25 years, because...

Dear Jim: We are writing to tell you how happy we are with our new house and to provide you with a letter of recommendation. The quality of the construction and your attention to detail far surpassed our expectations. Everyone who has seen our house has commented on the high quality of the construction and the beautifully detailed craftsmanship. Our friends are even more impressed when we tell them that the demolition of the old house to completion of the new house took only one year and was within budget. You provided many details and features we did not expect and which were not in the plans,...

To Whom It May Concern: I would like to express my appreciation to Mr. Romani who has carefully designed the comfortable house I am living in now. Nowadays, it is hard to find people who are reliable, honest and punctual. Mr. Romani has all of these qualities.

To Whom It May Concern: We bought this house built by Jim Romani in 1989 and still enjoy living in it. The house is well built and well laid out. It looks beautiful from both inside and out; we are always receiving complements from visitors, and even strangers come to our door and request a tour. Whenever I have a question about the house, I always get a quick response from Jim. I know he takes pride in his work. I consider this quality to be most important, especially in this day and age when most people choose to walk away from their responsibilities as soon as they are paid. I regard...

The best compliment that we can give Jim is to say that if we ever build a house anywhere in the greater Los Angeles area, he would be our first choice. Not only is the quality of his work superior, but his quick response to any inquiry or problem along with his patience and understanding with some of our smallest requests was outstanding. It seemed as if sometimes we had hardly put the phone down, before he was returning a call. His choices of sub-contractors were excellent, and if ever there was a problem with one of them, they were replaced quickly. His attention to detail and his willingness...
