Rani ben Ezra

Basix Design & Remodeling

8885 Venice Blvd. Suite 205

Los Angeles, CA 90034

877 422 2749


Rani is one of the few contractors out there that give the profession a really good name.  His company of dedicated, talented hard-working craftsmen are professional, skilled, considerate and easy to be around.  I can speak to this because I "lived" with all of his employees at one point or another during a six month remodel of our house. The process itself is never fun, but his team made the situation so much better.  They were good natured, cleaned up completely every single day and tried hard to be accommodating.  Rani was incredibly easy to get along with, flexible, always three steps ahead and problem solving at all times. He delivered the project on time, on budget, with no surprises - what else can you ask for? The experience was so positive, he will be my go-to man for the next project.  I recommend him without reservation.
