Testimonials

“We have done two projects with Marty and his team. Marty has high standards and does outstanding work. He also has a good eye for design and makes helpful recommendations along the way. He communicates very well and stays on top of things. Best of all, he is trustworthy, has a terrific sense of humor, and finishes the job. We consider him a friend.”

“The project was a complex and thorough remodel and addition to an older 5000 sq.ft. house. The existing structure was almost completely demolished, and new underground plumbing installed. All new electrical, HVAC, walls, roof, and floor finishes. New baths and a fabulous kitchen were installed. Landscaping was revitalized and new irrigation installed. This was a complicated project, but it came in on budget and on time, and the quality of the work is excellent. MPX's running cost accounting kept us apprised of all costs continuously. There were no unwelcome surprises. We had a very good working relationship with Martin Prideaux and remain friends to this day. Very highly recommended!”

“Five years, three major projects and one contractor, Martin Prideaux, the only person we trust with our home. Marty provides the "complete package.” His eye for design, understanding of the client's sense of style and work ethic is complemented by his crew, who also take a genuine interest in the outcome of the job. We found Marty to be accurate with estimates, flexible with regards to challenges presented by the job and truly a pleasure to work with. We are looking forward to the next opportunity to enhance our home with Marty.”

“I hired MPX to renovate a 1926 Spanish Colonial home and am so glad I did! From the get-go I let them know that I wanted to bring the house back to its “glory days.”  There were certain details that were of important to me.  In particular, I wanted all the exterior architectural features retained and preserve the picture window sightlines and the hardwood floors.  The latter were in horrible shape but somehow, miraculously, they listened and then delivered! Marty and the site manager, Tom, would lay out all the options and let me sleep on it if I needed to, but they also let me know when they needed my response so we could keep the project moving. Through it all, Marty, Tom and the crew always exhibited a sense of humor that made the whole experience so less stressful for me. Is a five-star rating enough?  Nope.  A constellation of stars would not be enough!!! I will always be grateful to them for a home that is truly a dream come true.”

“My husband and I worked with Marty on a remodel of our cottage style home in Montecito. We remodeled the kitchen, master bathroom, living room, bedroom, hallway, and laundry room. After the remodel, our home is not only beautifully transformed, but more spacious and much more practical for our family. Marty has excellent craftsmanship and a holds a high standard for his work, which is evident in his finished product. Throughout the remodel process, Marty was extremely helpful and knowledgeable in the design process and was happy to accompany us to select finishes. Additionally, he was very knowledgeable and extremely helpful when we encountered unforeseen structural and permitting issues in the remodel process. He knew exactly how to properly handle these issues and address them as quickly as possible. Not only was Marty very easy to get along with and a pleasure to be around, but he was a very responsive communicator throughout the process. Additionally, his subcontractors were professionals, had excellent work product, and were a pleasure to be around. We are now comfortably enjoying our beautifully remodeled house thanks to Marty! I highly recommend him!”

“I couldn't be more pleased by the beautiful and thoughtful details Martin put into transforming the duplex where I now reside. I am 92 years old and recently downsized and moved to Silver Strand, to live next-door to my daughter. Martin transformed my new home to meet my long list of needs. It had to be attractive, both inside and out, be handicap accessible, have space for my drum set, and be designed to take full advantage of the harbor views. I also have nothing but the highest regard for Martin's crew who always showed up on time, cleaned up after themselves, and worked tirelessly to complete the job in the time frame I needed. Honestly, I didn't think I could love a home as much as the one I left, but MPX Construction created such a high quality and stunning house that the only difference was changing from a mountain view to ocean.”
