FVA26 Design & Build

Look no further than this contracting company! I have had many contractors over the years, but no one compares to Freddy Vivas and FVA 26 Design & Build. He is not only extremely professional, but warm and friendly with a great personality as well. Living in NJ, it was important to find a Miami based company to gut an entire one bedroom condo and take it out of the 1960s. They needed to be trustworthy and reliable as the whole process was done pretty much virtually. Freddy not only designed the plans, but also offered amazing suggestions when we were unsure as to whether or not our ideas could be accomplished. Freddy came highly recommended by my realtor and I can see why. His patience, flair for design and great follow up resulted in a beautiful and contemporary home. We will be leaving NJ for our stunning new condo and we have Freddy and his team to thank for that. Contractors are a dime a dozen and most don’t even follow up with a proposal. Freddy is priceless.

Not being a resident of Florida I relied on Freddy's ( FVA26 Design ) knowledge and expertise in the remodelling of my condo. My husband and I are very happy with our beautiful renovation. The workmanship and quality were excellent. Freddy was a pleasure to deal with and we highly recommend his company.

Best quality of work, good timing, 0 problems, high quality material, full insurance, highest work experience, all the permits and plans.

Freddy and his team were very reliable and got the job done in a timely fashion. Would recommend them without feservations.

Freddy and his team, the best quality design-build in Miami! Freddy is a true professional in what he does - he is quick, efficient and always accessible with great communication. Freddy and his team handled our project from A to Z, he did the architectural drawings, engineering plans, obtained permits, and finished our entire gut reno project by the promised completion date. I can’t wait to work with Freddy again on new projects in the near future.

About 2 years ago I decided to embark on probably one of the most challenging projects of my life, a total gut renovation of my recently purchased 1939 home in the middle of a global pandemic... To paint the picture, my roof was falling in and everything on the property was destroyed... Termites, Cast iron pipes, ceilings falling into bedrooms, water damaged beams, exposed wires, etc... Literally everything had to go... After my plans were completed and approved by the city, I spent a good 3-4 months searching for a contractor that I could trust and had the style of work I was looking for... I made appointments with at least 10 contractors, less than 5 showed up and only 3 actually sent me quotes... Only one followed up, Only one saw my vision, Only one made me feel taken care of....And that was FVA26! Ben and Fredy were on their game from start to finish... They were both checking in constantly, visited my site a few times per week, dealt with supply issue due to covid and even acted as therapists for me when unexpected issues would arise that weren't budgeted for... I'm the first one to admit, I'm not an easy client... I like things done perfectly, I notice everything but they were always there to deal with anything I didn't like or wanted done a different way.... They've dealt with terrible city inspectors, found solutions and made sure things keep moving along.... Were pretty much at the finish line with my project and I couldn't be more happy... All the finishes we selected have come together beautifully!! The attention to detail and quality of craftsmanship is exactly what I wanted... I sold my condo in Brickell and wanted my house to have the same vibe... They knocked it out of the park!! Mission Accomplished and then some!! A+++++

thank you so much for helping out with the installation , Benjamin always suggested the best option. I highly recommend.

I would like to express my gratitude to Benjamin and his team; impeccable work; very professional in how they handled simultaneous high-end bathrooms in our Bal Harbor’s condo. From the material selection to the labor itself, everything was pristine. The entire team was fully synchronized….again many thanks to Benjamin and his team. Sofía Rothschild

FVA26 Design and Build did a fabulous job in the remodeling, or better yet, total remaking of my kitchen and bar. They also installed the light fixtures, removing the outdated popcorn ceilings! And repainted the whole apartment. We could not be happier with the result. Our kitchen although small, it's completely functional. Everything is accesible and fits perfectly without looking cluttered. Freddy showed me a few of his many previous job at 100 Bayview Dr. in Sunny Isles, and I was confident I was hiring the right designer for what I wanted done. Before he rendered the desing, he asked me what I wanted and he executed my wishes to a T. He was always responsive to my texts and emails (which may have been a little much! Lol) but he had all the patience to deal not only with us the owners, but also with his crew. Thank you Freddy!!

Freddy y su equipo trabajan de forma excelente! Renovaron todo el apartamento siendo muy eficientes en la gestión de permisos y cumpliendo con todos los plazos. Ademas fueron de gran ayuda y muy amables a la hora de seleccionar productos y terminaciones, con buen gusto y siempre dispuestos a asesorarnos en lo que necesitaramos. Gracias Freddy!

We highly recommend FVA26 Design based on our recent complete condo renovation. We needed 2 bathrooms, a kitchen, a walk-in closet, new floors, complete painting, electrical, plumbing and some walls relocated. The crew worked very hard; the demolition was quick and clean without much disruption to the other condo owners and with no damage to the condo corridors. Fred Vivas Agai drew up the required architectural plans, submitted all municipal required permits helped us with ALL our selections and made many useful recommendations and even shopped on our behalf. All renovations were ON TIME as promised. The quality of the materials workmanship was excellent. Throughout the renovations Fred kept us continually up to date of the reno progress and the billings detailing the work to date was accurate and followed the contract. All was professional. In our opinion we think that Fred and his crew are honest, fair and legitimately care about their reputation. Should we require any other reno projects we would not hesitate to use him again. Considering how many poor contractors there are out there, we feel fortunate we chose Fred.

Freddie se encargó completamente de la remodelación de nuestro departamento en Sunny Isles, ya que nosotros vivimos en Ecuador. El trabajo excedió nuestras expectativas, excelente gusto, se cumplió el presupuesto y el tiempo. No podríamos estar más felices con el resultado!

Excelente profesional para recomendar siempre, cumplidor, a tiempo con la obra. Y todo lo entregado en perfectas condiciones , nunca tuvimos inconveniente alguno la usar las cosas.

Freddy is professional and his team was great. If I were to renovate another Condo, I would use Freddy again.

I am very happy with Benjamin and his team for renovating my condo unit in SoBe, very reliable crew, love our new modern architectural design style; magnificent job!! Full turn-key! Many thanks

Excellent team!!! Our project needed a GC and Benjamin committed himself with full devotion towards our new home!! Magnificent work, very professional, high quality and elegance. Thumbs up

I highly recommend Freddy. He renovated my condo and did and excellent job. He was always on time Very happy client :)

I would highly recommend FVA 26. They completely renovated our condo while we were in Toronto. When we arrived we were thrilled with the results. I have already recommended to friends in the building who have hired them and are equally as pleased.

The experience I had working with Freddy and the FVA26 Design and Build team was outstanding. Freddy completely gutted and remodelled a very old condo unit in Sunny Isles Beach and transformed it into a beautiful, light filled, modern space. (You can see pictures of the transformed unit on the website under modern condo design). With Freddy's extensive experience, architectural background and excellent design ideas, he patiently helped me choose the perfect flooring, tiles, back splash, counters, faucets, lighting, dining fixture, faucets, wall coverings, and closet designs. This condo renovation along with the subsequent projects i have hired Freddy to do have always been completed on time, professionally, and within budget. What has been best about working with Freddy, besides his great personality, and honesty is that he always stands behind his workmanship. He will always return to address any issue, big or small in an effort to please the customer and make sure everything is perfect. I have already recommended Freddy to many people and would continue to do so without hesitation. He is the best!

FVA26 team with Freddy at the helm did a fantastic job completely gutting and renovating our condo in Sunny Isles Miami. From start to finish, I felt Freddy (who is also an architect) was completely on top of every detail and was very accommodating when it came to us choosing flooring/granite/tile faucets/shower etc. We took down and put up walls creating a beautiful light filled space. The project was completed on time and we are thrilled with the finished product. I whole wholeheartedly recommend FVA26 for your construction needs.

Working with FVA26 was a truly wonderful experience. Freddy and his ream were professional, talented, honest, and the overall Reno was amazing. With the condo being fully gutted in Miami, and us in Toronto, Freddy was accessible all the time, and made sure we were involved every step of the way! I would recommend FVA26 and Freddy to anyone who wants to work with a great team, and have a beautiful end result.

I highly recommend FVA26 team. They worked on designing my bathroom and kitchen and the work is beautiful. Very creative and highly professional.

They were excellent to work with. They understood exactly what I was looking for in terms of functionality and design. They were very attentive and listened to my ideas. Best part, they were able to keep within my budget and they did the job in the time it was promised. Thank you for such a great job!!

I hired FVA26 to do a full remodeling job of an old apartment. Freddy Vivas and his team members were diligent, very professional and most importantly trustworthy. They gave excellent guidance as to materials, options and managed all matters. My job limits my availability yet FVA26 made it an easy process. The work was of high category and if there were any issues Freddy and his team would manage immediately. I highly recommend their services.

FVA26 offered me a high quality service for a reasonable pricing; with attention to details and completing the job on time and on budget. Moreover, they were very good listening and understanding my requests and the final results were amazing. I highly recommend them.

Excellent attention to detail, trustworthiness and reliability. This company is extremely knowledgeable and efficient. I highly recommend them for any type of project.

FVA26 is a great team reliable and responsible-they do awesome Projects with exquisite taste. New construction and remodeling , kitchens , baths , wall and floor covering-I really recommend them.

Very serious and committed professional. Complies with dates and deadlines. Quality of work is a key element of his performance. Always open and willing to interpret one's ideas.

FVA 26 was an absolute pleasure to work with. Freddy and his team went above and beyond to make sure my requests were fullfilled. They completed a project at my house where a loft was coverted to a room. They matched the existing colors on the walls, ceiling mouldings, doors and hardware. It looks as if it was built with the house. I also hired them to remodel a medical office. Freddy made the best use of the space and gave us everything we asked in our wishlist. We are extremely satisfied with the quality of his work. Not only you'll get the best team of professionals but also Freddy's insights as an architect will take your project to a different level.

FVA26 did an amazing job and I would highly recommend them. I did a full reno on my miami condo which included moving walls, installing floors bathrooms etc. They are extremely professional and knowledgeable on design, not only delivered the project on time also on budget. It was a terrific experience and I would not hesitate to use them again!! Thanks FVA26

We had a complete renovation 3 years ago with Vivas company. Mostly we're satisfied, like our Florida condo and trying to come from NY as often as possible. All people visited us express sencere positive reaction and interest. We bought 30+ year old condo and after Vivas' job live in a modern welcoming nice Floridian condo.

We loved the quality of work and level of professionalism from the team. Our apartment is beautiful and exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend.

Had a great experience on our apartment renovation. Excellent customer service, would definitely recommend them and also work in future project with them as well!

Very good service. Quality results. We were lucky to have Freddy and his team work on our remodeling project. Thanks again for your help in making our dreams come true!
