A sleek standalone tub surrounded by crystalline green tile beckons, while a glass-enclosed shower replete with Grohe fixtures and teak wood flooring promises a luxurious bathing experience.” See the project. Selected ReviewsWell-deserved reputation“Levitch Associates has a great reputation which is well deserved. They managed a major remodel of my small house, including complicated permit issues, reconfiguring and improving most of the interior spaces, fixing structural issues, adding a small addition, deck, fireplace, …beautiful kitchen and master bath and other special features that I enjoy daily. Maurice has so much talent and integrity that it was easy to trust him and his top notch crew with my home. The design, project management, and work quality were excellent; Maurice is supportive, thoughtful, creative, good humored, very experienced and knowledgeable – just a real pleasure to work with. All the Levitch’s in this family business are great to work with, as are their skilled and considerate work crew. This company really cares about their work and clients, and the whole process was a very positive experience. I look forward to working with them again in the future!” J. L. See the project Remodeling from 500 miles away “We recently completed a remodel that touched in some way every room of our house. When I told my friends that the remodeling would be happening while we were living 500 miles away, they thought I was insane. But we had confidence in Maurice and it was not misplaced. Our expectations were high but he and his team exceeded them in every way. The process was astonishingly smooth and we are thrilled with the result. I would do a project with Levitch again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!“ J. E. See the project Design/build for top-to-bottom remodel “We used Levitch Associates for a massive remodel of our Berkeley Hills home. We worked with Maurice and crew from design concept (which included a new foundation and the addition of a second floor to our aging house) through completion. We are very happy with the results and Maurice did a great job accommodating our very particular tastes. It was important to us that our house fit in with the natural beauty of the site and Maurice knocked it out of the park. Also would like to add that every member of Maurice’s crew was a pleasure to work with and we enjoyed having them working around our house. All took great pride in their work and craftsmanship.” A. S. See the project Preserving our home while upgrading “Maurice Levitch, and the whole company, is AMAZING. I would highly recommend this company to anyone seeking to remodel or build a new home. Levitch came in and proposed a great new design for our whole 2nd floor. Maurice led the great design process focusing on what could be preserved, safest for our young sons, have as much light as possible and be a warm home. The whole project was done in just the time promised, they always cleaned up well and were available to us regarding changes, concerns and any questions that came up. In short, Levitch Associates, particularly Maurice, is the best.” D. M. Under construction on a stormy night “I am writing to express my sincere appreciation of the work you did to build a second story addition to my house. The work was major, including installation of a steel moment frame that rises vertically 3 stories, from the basement to the roof…. Everyone visiting my home since the work have been extremely complimentary… the new spaces are light filled and integrated creatively to make my home both function practically and feel very welcoming and comfortable. I wish to state emphatically that all the work is of top quality . . . with Maurice Levitch as the principal architect and master contractor. As just an example of his care and thoughtfulness, I wish to give the following example. While most years the month of May is rain free in the Bay Area, this spring was an exception. One night at about 2 a.m. there was a large downpour. As the new roof was not complete, I noticed some rain coming in through the temporary tarps. I know it was the middle of the night, but felt comfortable enough to call Maurice at his home to ask him to come and help me with the tarps. As it turns out, Maurice was not at home; instead, I heard his truck pull up outside my house. He was already on his way before I could even call him.” P. Z.
