Rex Valdez founded Rex General Contractor in 2004 after nearly a decade working for larger commercial firms across the greater Los Angeles area. He started the company with a simple principle: residential construction in LA deserves the same level of planning, documentation, and precision that goes into commercial work. From that first job in Culver City to a full pipeline of remodeling and addition projects today, that principle has never changed.
We are a licensed, bonded, and fully insured general contractor serving homeowners across Los Angeles, the San Fernando Valley, the South Bay, and the Westside. Every project we take on is permitted, every subcontractor we work with is vetted, and every quote we provide is detailed and fixed. Our 4.8-star Google rating across 28 reviews reflects what our clients find out when they hire us: we do exactly what we say we are going to do.
"I started this company because I got tired of seeing homeowners in Los Angeles get burned by contractors who disappeared mid-project or delivered work that failed inspection. Every project we take on gets my personal attention, a real permit, and a crew I would trust in my own home. That is not a slogan. That is just how we operate."
Every person on a Rex job site is a direct employee, not a day-labor hire. These are the core team members who lead our projects.
Licensed in California since 2001, Rex oversees all permit submittals, client contracts, and quality control inspections. He is on site daily during critical project phases.
Marco has managed residential construction schedules in Los Angeles for 14 years. He coordinates daily crew assignments, material deliveries, and inspection appointments for every active project.
Patricia produces every written estimate Rex provides. With a background in construction cost management and seven years at the company, her numbers are precise and her scopes of work leave nothing to interpretation.
Three principles guide every decision we make on every project we touch.
Every quote is itemized, every change order is in writing, and every budget conversation happens before the work begins. You will never be surprised by a number at the end of a Rex project.
We do not cut corners to beat a deadline. Our crew takes the time to do tile work, finish carpentry, and paint prep correctly the first time, because redoing poor work costs everyone more in the long run.
When something is not right, we fix it. Every Rex project comes with a written warranty on labor and workmanship. If a problem develops after we leave, we come back and make it right without argument.
Free estimate, no pressure. We will come out, assess the job, and give you a written quote within 48 hours.
