The Founder
Jorge Aleman started Transforming House To Home after living the very problem he now solves. Like many homeowners, he struggled to find someone he could trust for the projects that pile up around the house — and that experience became his purpose.
Over the past four years he trained alongside an experienced general contractor, learning the importance of quality work, clear communication, and treating every customer's home with real respect. After two years in business, he brings that experience directly to homeowners across the South Bay.
Jorge is currently working toward his general contractor license — so for now he focuses on the handyman work he loves, and when a project calls for a licensed specialist, he helps connect you with the right professional through his network.
He's not just working on houses. He's helping people turn their houses into homes — and he'd be glad to help with yours.

Respect First
We Listen
Where It All Started
Like many homeowners, we found ourselves needing help with projects around the house and struggling to find someone we could trust. That experience introduced us to a general contractor who took us under his wing and gave us the opportunity to learn the trade.
What started as a personal need became a passion for helping others.
Over the past four years, we've gained hands-on experience working alongside an experienced general contractor, learning the importance of quality work, communication, planning, and — most importantly — treating every customer's home with respect.
After two years in business, we're proud to bring that experience directly to homeowners who need someone they can call, trust, and count on.
More Than Just the Work
We believe homeowners shouldn't have to figure everything out alone.
Whether you need a repair, a home improvement, or simply someone to help you understand where to start, we're here to listen, explain your options, and help you find the right path forward.
And when a project requires a licensed contractor or specialist, we can help connect you with trusted professionals through our network.
Honest, everyday residential care — South Bay homes
Customer Service Comes First
For us, it's not just about fixing something or completing a project. It's about listening to you, communicating with you, respecting your home, and making sure you feel taken care of.
Because we're not just working on houses. We're helping people turn their houses into homes.
What Drives Us
We cover floors, clean up, and treat every space like our own. Your home is never just a job site.
Transparent quotes, clear communication, and no pressure. We help you find the right solution — not sell you something you don't need.
From the first conversation to the final cleanup, the small things matter. That's what turns a house into a home.

"Jorge is very experienced and detail oriented. We hired him for IKEA furniture assembly for our closet. He came on time and diligently finished the work fairly on time. His attention to detail and quality of work was impressive. He also gave us suggestion and called out some issues with our original design. He took care of hauling as well. 100% recommended!"

"I've had Jorge build a few custom pieces for me (I'm an interior designer) and have been very happy with what he's made for us. His prices are fair, he is incredibly attentive, and he works quickly and quietly. We live in an old home (100 years and counting) with beautiful details throughout. Having Jorge's custom pieces added really makes me feel like we are honoring the integrity and history of our home, rather than adding cheap trendy furniture that we'll throw away in five years. It's so worth it to pay a little bit more to have something built by human hands, made with care, specifically for you and your space. He even designed around a floor vent that we had blocking the space I wanted our bench - something I hadn't thought of in my designs I gave him. He comes up with very creative solutions. Heirlooms, baby! Last thing to mention: he wrote us the sweetest card and gave us a potted plant when the project was done. Such a nice person to collaborate with. Hire Jorge, you won't regret it!"

"Jorge reviewed our work carefully and provide us a very solid estimate. He is responsive and honest. During the installation, he asked our thoughts before installing the cabinets instead of just doing it his way. We really appreciate this so the installation is done in our way in our minds. The garage cabinet was installed in a very solid and sturdy way. We love his team helping this out. My husband and I would never done it by ourselves."

"The communication was great, very punctual, and communicated very well on the status of the build. Additionally, the haul away of the old bed frame, the box springs, and the boxes and styrofoam that the new furniture came in saved me a ton of money and time of disposing of it myself. I definitely recommend them. My cats approve as well 😊"

"Jorge is great to work with! He helped us install holiday lights - he did a great job at a very reasonable price. Arrived on-time, brought some extra clips just in case they were required. He made sure that lights were properly covering the right areas, checking with us regularly. He even helped us install a few things inside the home as well (which we hadn't mentioned about it earlier) Overall, great experience working with him! Highly recommend!"
