“Edgar and Diego Barajas do superb trim work.”

I worked with Edgar and Deigo in 2023 on a custom home I had built in West Des Moines. It is a very contemporary home with some unique custom trim features, that required extreme precision to execute. They worked with the framing and drywall conditions they inherited and did a flawless job with the custom trim and cabinetry, resulting in a unique finished product. I was able to convey my design ideas to them and they worked diligently to create the one of a kind look I was after.

We were also on a tight construction schedule, and they worked late nights and weekends to keep the job on schedule, as well as helping police the other trades in the house so they could complete the project. They did such great work that I’ve had them do some additional custom closet work for me after moving in.

I’ve had 8 custom homes built for me in the last 20 years and worked closely with all the trades on them. Edgar and Deigo are by far the best sub-contractors that I’ve worked with on any of the homes. They are polite, attentive, and have the skill and vision to create a true custom product. They also trimmed a friend of mines contemporary house after mine and did a fantastic job for him too. Very nice guys who take pride in their work, and we also enjoyed a few Coronas together after working hours. I highly recommend them for your custom trim work.

“We had the pleasure of working with Edgar and Diego of Barajas Construction during the construction of our new home.”

Building a new home can be a stressful experience, filled with many decisions and sometimes setbacks. This was not the case for us. Edgar was a pleasure to work with and was always willing to listen to our input and help us turn our ideas into realities. He showed a level of caring about the details and quality of home that equaled ours.

His professionalism, attention to detail, workmanship, and quality of his work are very difficult to find today. He custom crafted several elements of our home. From built in shelves, custom closets, decorative wall trim, and faux barn doors, Edgar showed no limitations in his abilities.

We would definitely work with him again if we were to ever build another home or start any additional construction projects.

“I had started a kitchen remodel and was over my head.”

I ordered 5 pallets of RTA cabinets and had no plan for install. Edgar came highly recommended by a friend, and he saved the day. Edgar and Diego are extremely reliable and detail-oriented. My cabinets are gorgeous and the trim work looks amazing. Hands down, they are the best and I’ll be using them for all future projects.

“Our builder only used the best, and the quality of work Edgar created was unparalleled.”

I met Edgar when we built our dream home a couple of years ago. Our builder only used the best, and the quality of work Edgar created was unparalleled. We still get compliments on the custom cabinetry, along with the extra projects we asked for that weren't in the original plans. He made it a point to get to know us, was incredibly kind and caring, and made sure the finished product exactly met our vision. I was very impressed with the professionalism and attention to detail his company exhibited, and we would certainly recommend them to anyone seeking only the best for their building needs.
