To Whom It may concern:
Working with CalAsia Construction was a great experience. Trustworthy, efficient and dependable, they took care of us every step of the way. This being our first project we had a lot of questions and concern but they made us feel comfortable and we couldn't be happier with the results. Even though our project was small (only 700 square feet) they were completely dedicated to helping us realize our dream. The space turned out exactly how we envisioned it, and we will be going to them first on all future projects. A big thanks to John. our project manager Ernie and the rest of the CalAsia team. their knowledge and attention to detail makes them a superior choice.
Sincerely,

Dear John,
I wanted to take the time to drop you a line and thank you for your efforts in getting both the Pizzeria and the Osteria up and running. It was a daunting task to decide on a contractor for this project since we were coming out of New York and had little more than references on builders local to LA. We are glad we made the choice to use CalAsia. You helped us get the permit through the city early, worked well with the local architect of record and aided Lisa our designer throughout the process. There were changes and additions made and we found CalAsia to be helpful in vetting out problems and executing the changes with minimal headaches. We have since referred CalAsia to other associates going to LA and would gladly do so on the future. Thank you again John, Sean, Maria and the gang.
Sincerely,
Alex Munoz

Re: Cal Asia Construction
To Whom It May Concern:
I have been using John Murawski and Cal Asia Construction for approximately four years for various small projects. The largest and most significant assignment involved the reconstruction of a retail storefront building on North La Brea Avenue. This job was completed on time and on budget. Subsequently, John has completed several remodel and repair projects in both retail and residential condominium structures. The work is always handled in a professional and dependable manner.
I expect to continue to use Cal Asia in the future because I have found them to be:
• Honest and trustworthy
• Dependable
• Competitively priced
• Professional workmanship
If you have any questions, you're welcome to contact me.
Sincerely,

Dear John and Todd,
On behalf of the homeowners at The Malibu and as Board member in charge of
the project, I'd like to express my deep appreciate for a job extremely well done.
While I realize that this was a relatively modest size job for you, there was
certainly nothing simple or straightforward about it.
You gave us an extremely fair price for the scope of work, didn't look for ways to
hit us with change orders as it "evolved" and, very importantly, didn't cut corners. I believe we received a tremendous value for our expenditure. This was also a bit of a logistical nightmare with 24 different owners arriving and departing, and sometimes being difficult, at different times. There were also existing service providers whose efforts needed to be coordinated with your own crews. None of this could have been accomplished without Todd's (calm) presence on site. This required unwavering, close supervision and coordination combined with uncommon patience-the iron fist in the velvet glove. Everyone I've spoken to is thrilled with the final product and proud to show it off which is all the more impressive given the tight budget we were working with. I was quite pleased to have the chance to work with you again, John, and commend you for assembling a tremendous team-Curtis, Todd, Chris and, of course, Myrna. I hope we'll find another project to collaborate on but, in the meantime, would be more than happy to recommend you to others seeking a highly qualified, honest contractor who delivers a lot of "bang for the buck".
Sincerely yours,
Stephan D. Smith

Dear John
I just wanted to thank you again for doing such a terrific job on my restaurant. The construction
was top notch, and this was the first time in my life that working with a contractor actually seemed
simple rather than complicated with endless frustrating details.
In addition, your professional advice regarding such crucial operations elements as the flow of
space, choosing the proper POS system and the BOH equipment for maximum efficiency, as well
as the overall design (including your great recommendation for the big screen TV showing upscale
food images), were invaluable. I feel like I got a business consultant as well as a contractor for the
price of one!
Anyway, thanks again. I'll be back in touch soon, as we're already starting to plan our second
location.
Best regards,
Mark Kulkis
President
