What Our Customers Had To Say...

We love Danny. He's reliable, keeps you up to date, reasonably priced, and does great work. We recently bought a 1940s fixer upper in Palo Alto, which needed a lot of work. We hired Danny to oversee the project, and he was more than willing to work with a couple of contractors we had picked ourselves (cabinetry and windows – even though later in the process, we wished we had gone with his recommendations). We took out some walls in our kitchen, put in a new heating system, put in hardwood floors, expanded our bathroom, remodeled our other existing bathroom, and changed some closet configurations, and everything went very smoothly. Danny is great in that he keeps you informed of everything that's happening, and if a mistake is made, which is rare, he'll owe up to it and fix it. In addition, he does a lot of the carpentry himself, which probably brings down costs. He and his crew were always on time, and he often stayed late working on our project.

I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking to do an extensive remodel and would definitely use him again for other projects. He did a wonderful job.

As horrible an experience as a complete kitchen gut and remodel can be, Danny O'Keeffe made it tolerable, making suggestions not only on the design and construction work in his contract, but also helping us protect the rest of our home and our temporary living arrangements.

Services focused on kitchen remodel design and implementation, including mitigation of water and mold damage. Danny provided several bids as our plans evolved, connected us with a cabinet maker subcontractor and a granite countertop provider, and directed brought in electrical, plumbing, flooring, and painting subs. Of course, he oversaw the entire project personally, and did all of the rough and finish carpentry.

From my first contact over the phone with Danny O'Keeffe I was impressed with his open communication style and willingness to work with us. While certainly not the largest job he's done, he always delivered on his promises. I had the opportunity to watch some of his work, and his attention to detail and his pride in his (and his subs') workmanship was excellent.

He first submitted a bid to do a gut and remodel of our kitchen which had suffered water damage. When we had a couple of concerns over the bid (custom cabinets seemed overkill), he immediately suggested semi-custom, and connected us with an excellent vendor. He and the cabinet provider/kitchen designer collaborated on a complete bid, and cabinets were ordered. Danny then scheduled the job to begin so that the cabinets would arrived at exactly the right time. He estimated 6-8 weeks for the job.

Six weeks later they hauled away the debris box and the portable toilet, and we began to move into our beautiful, and wonderfully put together new kitchen. I would work with Danny again in a minute, and we have already solicited a bid from him to remodel two bathrooms!

I recently had a wall demolition project done by Daniel O'Keeffe of O.K. Contracting. Daniel is extremely professional and I am impressed at the great work that is performed by him. He was punctual throughout the construction and kept me informed of the project status and what was going to take place next.

Being in the quality field, I am very conscious about the work performed and I must admit that Daniel did a superb job. He is the first contractor that I have dealt with in a long time that really cared about customer satisfaction and customer experience.

I recommend Daniel and his company highly and I am very satisfied with the completed job.

~ Alka J. in Palo Alto, CA

OK Contracting and it's owner, Danny O'Keefe, recently remodeled our garage into a play room for our kids with amazing results. They also updated our family room and bathroom. My husband and I feel like we are living in a new home.

From the initial estimate process, Danny was responsive and helpful. I've heard all the old jokes about contractors but none of those apply to Danny. He's really great!!

Danny and his crew were timely each day, respectful of our home and completed each part of the project on time and to a high standard of quality. His costs were completely reasonable too as we were working to a strict budget. I never felt like things were spinning out of control. He also had great suggestions on the look and feel of things too. So, if you were stuck not knowing where to put things (for example a wall heater placement) he could help out with useful suggestions. I would highly recommend Danny.

Additionally, he did my sister's remodel which was an entire house re-do so no job seems too big or small. I look forward to working with Danny again!!!!

~ Brid K. in San Jose, CA

O.K. Contracting recently installed crown molding and painted our kitchen. They did a great job and were very pleasant to deal with. The owner, Danny, was very responsive and punctual. It should be noted, however, that the painters were not as punctual and would arrive about an hour after the appointed time. I would still give them 5 stars, however, because they did such good work and were reasonably priced.

~ Claudia S. in Redwood City, CA

We had a very good experience with OK Contracting when we had him come out to do an estimate for a medium-sized remodel. Danny was responsive and very accommodating with regard to our schedule. He offered valuable tips and suggestions for changes based on what he felt would look best and/or provide the best usability.

Please do note that we have not yet experienced O.K.'s construction services as we did not go through with the project above (not anything to do with OK Contracting). But from our experience with OK Contracting as compared to other contractors, we would definitely contact OK first for any future remodeling project.

~ Tushar M. in Mountain View, CA

All I have to say is Danny should change his title of O.K. Contracting to Great Contracting. Danny is fantastic! He was very quick to respond to my initial inquiry and had an estimate sent to me in a very short period of time. When I gave him the green light to start the project, he was on top of things. He is the first contractor I've EVER worked with that actually completed the project when they said they would.

I highly recommend Danny for any construction project and look forward to working with him again in the future.

~ Brooke B. in San Jose, CA

I've hired Danny twice and he has been excellent both times. Easy to work with, solves problems, gets his work done promptly and with a minimum of hassle. Reasonable rates, too.

~ Daniel L. in Palo Alto, CA

I've worked with many contractors and O.K. Contracting is one of the best. Danny O'Keefe is the owner. His estimate was reasonable and before finalizing our work he went over options with me so that I could Make an informed decisions. His work was impeccable and timely. He and his workmen put down tarps and cleaned up every night. I would highly recommend O.K. Contracting to anyone.

~ Dorothy S. in San Martin, CA

~ Aoife in Belmont

Danny is a true professional who works efficiently, meticulously and without surprises. We were particularly impressed with his ability to complete a project for us on-time and on-budget and would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone planning to do projects around their home.

~ Sean in Menlo Park

I am very pleased to recommend Daniel O'Keeffe from my experience with him on a project at my house in 2008.

I designed an outbuilding and hired Danny to build it. Since I'm not an architect, implementing the structure required more than a little creativity on Danny's part. He checked everything with me first, to make sure it was the way I wanted to go, and together we solved all the little problems that come up in any project. His work is careful and the result was great. I liked working with him, and would certainly hire him again. He and his helpers always left the job site clean, and their work habits were excellent. What more could you ask for in a building contractor

~ Daniel in Palo Alto

I highly recommend Danny O'Keeffe of O.K. Contracting. Beginning with our initial meeting and thru the completion of the kitchen ceiling and crown molding project, he was professional, organized, hard working and diligent in execution. His rates were reasonable, the work was completed on time, and I am extremely happy with the result. I would use him for another project in a heartbeat!
