I recently remodeled/upgraded nearly everything in my unit. I've lived here for over 37 years and decided it was just time to update everything. I did this over several years.
First came the kitchen: I kept the cupboards as they were changing the doors to soft close doors and replacing the drawers to soft close drawers. Countertops were upgraded to quartz as was the kitchen floor. Vanities in both bathrooms were replaced with soft close pull-out drawers. I had the original mirrors replaced with modern medicine cabinets. Then using the same contractor I had my hardwood floors refinished and the entire unit painted. Renova Builders was the contractor for both phases. Renova did an excellent job. To refinish the floor all furniture had to be removed. Some pieces are antique and had to be unassembled and then reassembled when returned to the unit. They disconnected TV and wi-fi then reconnected both.. Everything went smoothly. Contact Renova's owner OMRI DROR at 510-708-7774.
In addition I had under counter pull out drawers as well as the hallway coat closet converted to a pantry with pullout drawers. I also had my closets redesigned and closets added to the master bedroom. I will provide contact information as soon as I find it.
Lastly i replaced. all of my windows with a newly approved vendor, Custom Exteriors. They also did an excellent job. My contact was Jason Rugaard, jason@custom-exteriors.com/925-487-9694. They use fiberglass frames as opposed to vinyl frames.

Hi Ida, we purchased our carpeting through Costco over 5 yrs ago and were very happy with the price (about half as much as most of the "floor stores" for the same quality of carpet and padding, and the installers were great. I recommend them. (April, 2021)

French Bros. in Oakland. Primarily commercial and wholesale. But, they will consider a “large” residential job (e.g., whole condo). Meticulous installs and GREAT!!! prices. We’ve used them twice over the years and I know they’ve done others here at BYL.

We were highly pleased with the service provided by Gary Abel of the San Rafael FloorStore, and their installer Hector, and his crew. Gary made sure the special order carpet arrived on time and that it was installed on the date we selected. The work was completed in one day. The installers worked hard, didn't even take a lunch break, did an excellent job. I recommend them unreservedly. (March 2019)
