Erik Quiel Home Improvement

Among many projects, Erik did our interior house painting, various repairs, and completely remodeled our garage and our bathroom (down to the studs). Really, really excellent work and top-​notch service. I’d highly recommend Erik for anyone doing home improvements or if they simply need a project taken care of.

5 STARS for Erik Quiel Home Improvement! Erik was referred through a mutual friend. I was highly selective in looking for general contractors due to the work we wanted completed and in the time frame we wanted the work to be completed. Erik agreed to make the long trip down to Carlsbad and completed our addition in 3 months! The work included removing our foundation, plumbing, electrical, the remodel of the guest and master bathrooms, a walk in closet, an addition of a master bedroom, all new windows on the back of our house with new stucco, hardwood floors throughout the entire house. This list doesn’t even include all the extra details that go into finishing our home. Erik has also been available for all calls and returned answers within a timely manner. He has also said to make sure I call him if I thought something was not done right or if I did not like something… so far I haven’t made a call to him and I expect that I won’t. Thanks again Erik Quiel Home Improvement! We love our home!

Erik has been great to work with. His work has been top notch, and his estimates have been consistent with final pricing. He and his crew did a superb interior paint job, among other tasks like redoing closets. Work was completed in a timely manner. Overall, I would highly recommend Erik to anyone looking for a contractor who is both reliable and does high quality work.

I highly recommend Erik Quiel Home Improvement. Erik does great work and is reliable. He did an amazing job rebuilding our outdoor decks at our previous house in Burbank and can do add ons to houses as well. He helped advise us on building an addition to our home. He’s also helped with other projects around our current home in Burbank such as helping patch our roof. He is a great handyman and contractor!

Erik is awesome to work with. He does excellent work and is extremely reliable and honest. His prices have always been very fair. I’ve had him do numerous projects at my home and everything has turned out great. I highly recommend him!

He might be an amazing contractor, but, I’ll never know since he didn’t respond to my e-​mails. I chatted with him on the phone, he said to email me. Which I did. I didn’t hear anything, so, I followed up. Still waiting…

Erik installed a new mailbox at my business. He was quick to respond to my email and did a great job. He even installed it in a fashion that makes it much more secure than the instructions would of allowed. I’m sure I will be calling him often as more projects come up. Thanks Erik!

I called Erik about getting some drywall patched and painted on a Friday. Monday morning he came by to look at the drywall and also had him look at some cracked grout in the kitchen.
It’s now Wednesday and everything is done and looking perfect. He and his crew were punctual and polite, and kept us well informed of what the next steps would be. Will definitely use them again.

Couldn’t rate this guy any higher!
I had 3 different handymen come to the house and quote a fortune for an ancient dishwasher removal job before I found Erik. Everyone else swore they would have to rip up the tile in order to get the old beast out & put the new one in but Erik did it with no such fuss & at a fraction of the other guys quotes.
He was punctual, efficient & extremely generous with his time as the job longer then anticipated because I was missing a number of essential parts for the new instal. He did two runs to home depot & only charged me for the parts!
He also pointed out a major risk factor in the house that everyone had overlooked & may have saved me tens of thousands.
Thank you Erik!

Erik and his crew was very helpful in fixing my closet. He responded quickly to my inquiry, was able to quote me a price, and was able to be at my house 2 days later.
Once there they were in, fixed the closet and was gone within an hour. I will be calling him again when I need the help.

Erik just fixed two areas of dry wall on our ceiling. He was able to give us a quote from a picture I emailed, and then stopped by to ensure the best repair option on one of the areas (since it didn’t read too well in a photo).
He gave us a quote on a Friday and fixed the ceiling the next week. He and his guy did a great job. They were on time and thorough. There was one area that needed to be adjusted due to our own personal visual preference (nothing they did wrong) and he had his guy come right away and fix it, no questions. I think this says a lot about his business — that he was willing to return and finish the job, even when we said we could make the minor adjustment on our own.
Such a relief to find a good contractor after hearing so many horror stories. We will definitely use Erik again in the future.

We have a lot of choices when it comes to contractors. Who to call? Who to trust? There are so many horror stories, right? (I’ve lived through a couple myself) If you are turning to Unilocal for help in choosing a contractor, go ahead and get a quote from Erik. He is professional, knowledgeable, and his staff follows his lead. We recently hired Erik to repaint our 5-​year old daughter’s bedroom and redo her closet. He was more than patient with my myriad of paint color decisions, and made great suggestions for the closet’s interior design which will grow with our daughter. He help us select the shelving system and installed beautiful beveled, mirrored sliding doors. The rods are reinforced and installed so tightly my husband can do pull ups on them. Most importantly, he worked around our schedule and got the job done quickly and efficiently for a reasonable price, with minimum disruption to our home life. I’ve never had a job go so smoothly with a contractor. You can tell he genuinely likes what he does and takes pride in his work.

Very unprofessional since he does not return calls or emails, I recommend you don’t bother calling at all!

This review is based solely off a phone call with Erik. No services were provided.
I went to replace my bathroom hardware and realized I got hardware that required a different method than the last one.
I called Erik and he provided me with solid guidance on best path to take (and advised that if I continued down my current path, it would be a serious time and money situation).
He was polite and clearly explained things, and took the time to listen to me and understand the situation.
I will definitely keep him in mind when I need home improvement services, which will probably be in the very near future.

Great worker! Super fast and a job well done! Definitely hiring again for future projects!

I needed a new bathroom door and the first thing I did was to buy one at lowes and fix it my self. I figured I didn’t have the time, proper equipment, and experience. So I asked Lowes to fix it for me. They brought one of their guys over and he recommended to take the whole door frame out and to buy a door with a frame. He even said it would be more complicated to customize the door I just bought to make the right fit for the original door frame. They were going to charge me $ 250 just for the labor. Total rip off.
That’s when I found Erik through Unilocal and gave him a call since he had great reviews. Erik gave me a really great deal. Erik is fast, efficient, professional and reliable. He customized my door to fit, place new hinges, and clean after himself in under ½ and hour. I’d recommend him for any home improvement. I’d also plan on going to him for any home improvement in the future.

We picked Erik to repair some old caulking based on the other reviews
here. He was prompt, worked quickly, and the results look very
professional. His prices were reasonable. He seems knowledgable about
construction, and even fixed a couple of shower door issues at no extra
charge. We’ll definitely be calling him back in the future.

Erik helped us out after a leak destroyed our kitchen floor… He came over on short notice, gave us a reasonable quote and within a few days everything was even better than before. His crew did a great job laying the tile and he made sure all the leaks were fixed and helped out with a few minor fixes and improvements along the way.
As the other reviewers mentioned, he’s a licensed contractor, very friendly, his prices are reasonable, and most importantly he gets the job done right. Good contractors are very hard to find… glad I stumbled upon Erik on Unilocal and will definitely work with him again in the future.

I was in need of a handyman close to Sunland. I was in Burbank and saw Erik’s truck, I gave him a call and he was at my house the next day. I need the caulking removed and reapplied around my bathtub and outside of my tub. I also need a ceramic soap dish installed into the bathtub wall. He did a great job! It was very clean and neat, he cleaned up the mess from the previous person who worked on the tub. Erik was very friendly and has great prices. I would definitely use his services again. Thanks again Erik!

We needed some small help around the house (fixing doors that did not close), but didn’t know who to call. I had seen his truck from running around Burbank and I gave him a shot. He called me back the same day and also did the job the same day.
Erik responded promptly, did a great job and had very reasonable prices. He was a nice guy to boot! Oh yeah — he’s also a LICENSED CONTRACTOR!
We’re looking forward to using him again on our kitchen cabinets. Thanks Erik!
