All Star Team Construction

Wen and his team, including Martin and Mario, worked on both Mom & our condos to get them done in the nick of time for our third trimester~ a last minute request with a very short time frame. Quote was quick and painless. The work that was done remodeling our condos were beyond our expectations and it was very easy to discuss plans, give, and get feedback from Wen. We are grateful for the recommendations he gave to assure our place was functional, fit for our lifestyle, and worthy within our budget!

Did not respond to text, voicemail or emails. It’s been several weeks of waiting. I’ve given up and hired someone else.

After reading the reviews posted on Unilocal I emailed All Star Team Construction with details for a duplex remodel project and a request to coordinate a meeting. I did not receive a response for 2 days thus I attempted to call however no one picked up and the voicemail was full. I attempted to call for 2 days and the voicemail continued to be full and nobody answered the phone. I sent a second email requesting follow up and still did not receive a response. I understand everyone is busy, however this inability to setup a process for customer response is a red flag for me and I was very disappointed with my experience with this highly rated contractor.

Wen and his team remodeled my home earlier this year. He was extremely knowledgeable of everything related to remodeling — flooring, tiling, bathrooms, kitchens. He never tried to ‘sell’ anything, but rather provided information to help us make the right decision and we really appreciated that. When something was not in his core expertise (i.e. carpeting), he was also very upfront about it.
What impressed me most about Wen was his work ethic. He really did whatever he could to make his clients happy and help make sure we were on schedule. It was not unusual for him to continue answering my questions even past midnight, so that the project could continue on the right path by morning time. This kind of constant attentiveness allowed us to complete a project of demolishing some walls, re-​doing our tiling, removing carpet and putting in new flooring — in only one month’s time. That’s amazing!!!
One last story I will leave you with that I felt went far above and beyond. I had re-​patched a wall in my home with new wall, and had wanted to find paint that matched the rest of my walls, a light cream color. Wen and I both tried color-​swatching at various paint stores and testing it on the walls, but the color always varied a bit. I pretty much gave up at the end and told Wen that’s fine maybe just leave it as a slight accent wall — but to my total surprise, the day we went for the final walkthrough, he surprised me with a wall that looked identical to the rest of the house! He knew I wasn’t happy with the prior results, and did whatever he could to make sure it was fixed.
Go to Wen and All Star Team Construction and you will not regret it!

Wen and his team are awesome. Super professional. Very responsive. Very open mined. Very honest. Very dependable. Great at implementing a vision. Respectful of neighbors and neighorhood dynamics. I would use him over and over and over again. His team did significant work remodeling several rooms and baths in my home, including plumbing, electrical and structural.

Impressed by so many very positive reviews, I chose to work with Wen and his company. Wen came out to give me a free estimate, and we worked out a plan where his team would come in and do the work while I was out of town for 3 days. When I came back, the floors were beautiful! I was very happy with the workmanship. He also moved back some of my furniture including my heavy bed so that I had a place to sleep that night when I arrived late from an evening flight home. Even afterwards, when I had some questions, Wen was very responsive to my emails. I highly recommend All Star Team Construction.

Wen & his construction team helped remodel our whole downstairs (kitchen, family room, and front sitting area). The kitchen was gutted and walls knocked down to open up our downstairs. They did it efficiently and on time for our move in. We highly recommend him and his crew. Since we were first time homebuyers budget was a high priority along with the workmanship of our new property. I have to say his team delivered. We are waiting to find more $$$ so we can have him remodel our master bathroom.

Wen and his team remodeled our kitchen including countertop, appliance installation. They are good communicators, and very patient.
They are very good at backing up their work. If anything goes wrong, they are willing to come and fix it.
Highly recommended!

I highly recommend All Star Team Construction. Wen and team has just completed refinishing my hardwood floors yesterday 12÷14÷12. Oh how beautiful those hardwood floors are now! The team was on time, efficient, nice and cleaned up behind them selves. This has been one of the best experiences that I have had with any home repairs EVER! Wen always kept in communication with me and worked around my schedule. Wen can to my house today to follow up and do some touch up work. It felt like talking to someone I’ve know for years. Good luck to you and much more success!!! If you want a quality, reliable, honest business to use please use ALL STAR TEAM CONSTRUCTION.

Wen should change the name of his business to «Way Above and Beyond Construction»!
Wen and his team came to my rescue to fix water damages in my San Francisco loft last week. I had a tenant living in the unit, and some substantial work was required to make the unit habitable again.
Here are a few reasons why I think Wen and his team went way above and beyond:
1) Value: Best deal out of all the quotes I received
2) Flexibility: Weekends/​holidays were not an issue — he was ready to do what it took to get the job done. He proactively worked with the tenant to schedule the work. I was out of town most of the time, so Wen coordinated all the logistics on his own
3) Fantastic Attitude: Super friendly, worked really well given the time constraints involved, took time to figure things out, accommodated additional work within the time frame without any issues
4) Quality: Excellent work — completed the work within time and within estimates
I walked off very happy after seeing the finished product. And my tenant is delighted.
Wen — it was such a pleasure working with you. Thank you enough for everything, and look forward to working with you again at some point in the near future.

I highly recommend All Star Team to anyone who needs a contractor.
Our rental property was affected by a fire in the building, and we needed to get it in tip top shape as soon as possible because we had new tenants moving in.
We met with several contractors, and one of them was Wen Lin, the owner and manager of All Star, who was highly recommended by a friend. After meeting with him and reviewing his proposal, we went with All Star.
We are so happy with our decision because they did an excellent job. And they completed everything in 16 days!
The place is about 1,700 square feet — they did a ton of dry wall repair, painting of the entire place, refinishing of 2 levels of hardwood floors and a lot of other items. Our floors had burn marks from falling embers, and everyone else we met with proposed ripping out the floors and installing new ones. Wen sanded them and re-​finished them, burn marks were gone, the floors look amazing. And he saved us a ton of money.
They were reasonably priced, professional, fast, resourceful, high quality of work and great customer service even after the project was completed. There was a light dimmer that needed to be fixed, and he took care of that as well.
They made a potentially difficult renovation into an easy and stress-​free experience.

Let me just say that Wen and his team met our lofty expectations and surpassed them with his work ethics and the all around ease of the whole experience. I have a rental loft in SF about 1700 sq feet and it was fairly damaged by a fire. Sprinklers turned on too so there was a fair amount of water damage. So I had an empty loft which needed a ton of dry wall work, holes in the roof, burned & water damaged floor and now in bad need of a paint job. I also needed it done in under 3 weeks because I had new tenants coming in.
After getting quotes from 3 other GC’s and several specialists for each specific job, Wen came in the most reasonable and he was doing everything. We live close by so we came by quite a bit and I was very impressed with how on schedule everything went. We discussed the sequence of the jobs prior to them beginning and gave ourselves some leeway for problems. Anyways everything worked out perfect.
Salvaged our floors which was huge. Sanded and refinished them so they look new. The other guys all told me to replace the floor or at the very least have big sections cut out and replaced. No more burn marks, no water damage… like new. BTW They are engineered wood, floating. Drywall was done right, paint done right and best of all everything done on time. I could not lose another month’s rent or the tenants. Wen put me at ease and guaranteed he’d finish on time or he’ll hire more people to get it done. Wen finished in 2 weeks & 2 days.
I highly recommend the All Star Team Construction and Wen. This is a great find because we all know good work is hard to find. Throw in honest, reasonable and resourceful and that’s even slimmer. This is not a hard sell, this is my experience with the guy. I know I’m going to be using him for any new house work I’m doing.
Good stuff and thank you Wen!!!

This team should be named as Five Star construction team. We lucky to find Wen and his team for this project. When we decided to do complete remodeling for our recently bought home, we were started our search for contractor who can deliver project with flexibility, reliability and quality and I should say that Wen and his team were delivered on all three. We were on very tight schedule and looking for someone we can trust with such a big project. After getting references, reviews and interviews, we selected Wen for our project with fingers crossed. Later we realized, it was best decision we made.
It was a big project which includes complete kitchen remodel, all three bathroom remodeled, fireplace, interior paint and much more. There were around 6 people working 7 days a week on our project. As with any big project, there was some delay due to kitchen cabinet delivery and fumigation. Just to make up to deadline, for last week of this project, Wen and his team were working till 10p every day! I was amazed with dedication and professionalism by his team. Even while working diligently, they were making sure, no minute details to be missed or quality to be compromised.
Wen was flexible and accommodating with tweaks and changes to the project including repainting walls few times, changing tiling design. While his team working on our project, they also did various add on like wall mounts, light fixture etc. without any hesitation or additional cost. Before next day’s house warming ceremony, I wanted front yard to look good. And guess what his team was doing 11p night before — spreading mulch on front yard.
We will definitely engage Wen for any future project and would recommend this team to anyone who is looking for a team to trust on their time and money!

Wen and his team made a highly competitive bid. Completed all work on time, and came in at estimate. A rarity when working with contractors. He is honest, works non-​stop and Saturday’s and even when we had a small problem with one of the renovations he was there that night to fix it. He stands behind his work. Would refer him for all jobs. He renovated two bathrooms, a kitchen and fireplace and we are happy with all of the work.

Wen and his team are really patient, considerate, and professional.
Wen were very responsive including answering my phone calls late at night. Wen also had promised to come on a Wednesday or Thursday however, he didn’t make it till Friday, but him and his guys worked Saturday and late too. My husband and I had to practically kick him and his crew out because we had an event to attend. How great can this guy be!!!
Not only was he responsive, but his work was magnificent. He knew exactly what I wanted once I sent him a picture of my ideal fireplace. He custom built it from scratch. I love my fireplace!
I would recommend him in a heartbeat to anyone of my friends and family for renovations.

As the name suggests, All Star Team Construction is made up of professionals. Wen and his team are true experts of their trade. They were extremely responsive to all of our questions and also provided the most competitive bid. He even picked up our phone calls with project scope changes late at night. I would recommend him for future projects without hesitation! He is definitely the best.

I picked Wen to quote a project for me since he had a stellar Unilocal rating. Wen provided me a quote and I did not select his bid, but since I liked the guy I figured I’d give him a shot at my next job. So, I reached out to him and asked him to do some laminate flooring in a relatively small room (~ 240 sqft). He had seen the room previously from the first job walk, so he had an idea of the space and had already quoted me a price. So, I was ready to move!
The job was completey his, no bids, no competition… his. The afternoon of Tuesday ³⁄₂₇ we tentatively scheduled to meet that evening from 6:30−7PM, and around 2:00PM he told me he would confirm «ASAP». Then, just around 5:50PM he texted me with «Hey probably meet you tomorrow morining… pouring right now. Call you ½ hours away.» So I was like OK (even with a bullshit rain excuse), because we had previously discussed 10AM Wednesday morning as an alternate meeting time. I informed him that I had a very busy Wednesday with several meetings, but would accomodate that 10AM meeting. He told me «OK, no problem», so I figured we were good to go for Wednesday at 10AM.
So, in order for me to make that 10AM time, I went to work at 6AM, which is about 2 hours earlier than my typical start time (hey, I’m a Director so I pretty much start when I want, typically around 8AM). So, at 9:30 I left my office in order to be there at 10AM. At 9:40 (exactly nine forty AM) Wen texted me «hey need to reschedule with you… cant find my sample this mornin».
Really? He cancelled 20 minutes in advance after I made accomodations to meet on HIS TIME, not MINE. I’m sorry, but 2 excuses is far too many (first the rain, then cant find his shit). I think that is a complete joke.
What is it with contractors? This is the 2^nd flooring guy who ended up being an absolute flake. So now I sit here tired from getting up early, pissed because I was just flaked on, and still needing to find someone who I can generously pay to do some work. It is contractors like Wen why we all have such a bad impression on contractors, and for him to have such a quality Unilocal rating is bullshit. I don’t care what type of work he does — he is too much hassle to work with in my book.
Shitty that I had to post this about a fellow CSUH alumni, but you all need the truth! It’s 2012 and I’m 0 for 2 on flooring contractors — guess the recession is over!

I have used Wen on many jobs. He has installed tile, wood flooring and countertops in several of my properties. He has a great attitude and is excellent to work with, always a joy to be around. Oh yeah, his work is good too. I am very picky and he meets my standards every time. Not only has he done several jobs for me, I have recommended him to many people and all have thanked me for the introduction. I will continue to hire Wen on future projects, he is honest, does what he says, completes the project in a timely manner and has very competitive pricing… that is not easy to find in the bay area.

Wen has been very responsive via email and phone, which I find to be rare with contractors who usually require «chasing». His was the most reasonable of the multiple bids we received for re-​tiling our master bathroom last June.
And the most impressive part of all… I emailed him last month (a year after he completed the job) to let him know that one of the tiles had cracked and the grout had come loose. He fixed it free of charge and didn’t even charge us for time or materials to purchase additional grout because we couldn’t find the original grout he’d used. He went above and beyond and stands behind his work. I’m impressed! Thanks Wen!

I needed to remodel my two bathrooms, kitchen, and flooring. I got some bids from other contractors but a friend told us about Wen and his crew. He showed up for a bid and his bid was a lower than the others. I was stunned by his friendliness and professionalism. I felt at ease with him. I didn’t feel like I was getting ripped off.
I got granite for the kitchen, tiles and new showers in the bathrooms, and nice bamboo hardwood flooring. The work was spot on. Nothing to complain about. Everything looks great. We and his crew was professional and finished everything in short period of time. I was expecting like 3 weeks to finish but they got it done in less than 2.
Last time, I had a problem with my dishwasher. I called him and he showed up that night after working another job. Sure enough, he even fixed that.
What a great guy to work with all around. He is definitely my go-​to contractor for any future projects. I highly recommend him. He deserves my business and yours!
***He is a licensed contractor now.
