About
A Sherman Oaks contractor, built on clarity.
YB Builders Group is a Los Angeles design-build contractor. We help homeowners plan, permit, and build the projects that change how their home works, without the chaos that usually comes with construction.
Most construction problems don't start when the first wall comes down. They start earlier: unclear scope, rushed planning, vague expectations, and promises that were never realistic. We built YB Builders Group to do the opposite.
With over 10 years in construction, one thing is clear: anyone promising a “stress-free, perfect project” is selling you an unrealistic dream. Construction is complex. There are always variables. What we do differently is set clear, realistic expectations from day one. We focus on strong communication and high-level craftsmanship. If you want honesty, accountability, and a job done right, you’re in the right place.
We don't sell a perfect, stress-free fantasy. Construction has variables. Existing conditions matter. City approvals matter. What we offer instead is a clear process, honest expectations, careful planning, and craftsmanship that holds up, so the decisions you make are smart ones, made with real information.
As a design-build contractor, the same team that plans your project builds it. That keeps the design realistic, the budget honest, and accountability in one place from the first call to the final walkthrough.
YB Builders Group was founded by Yonatan Chen and Ben Oded, the Y and B behind the name. After more than a decade building across Los Angeles, they run the company around the way they wanted projects handled: clear, communicative, and accountable.

Why Homeowners Choose Us
The way we work
Communication that means something
You should know what's happening, what comes next, and which decisions need your attention, before they become urgent.
Planning before demolition
The best construction decisions happen before materials are ordered and walls are opened. We front-load the thinking.
Clear expectations
We explain what's realistic before work begins, not after the budget gets uncomfortable. Honest beats optimistic.
Craftsmanship that holds up
Good construction isn't just how it looks on day one. It's how it performs over years, inside the walls and out.
Local Los Angeles experience
City processes, hillside and coastal conditions, lot constraints, neighborhood character. We build with those realities in mind.
