Best General Contractors in Arizona

Jacqueline is awesome! I'm SO glad we found her on Thumbtack. We recently "blended" our homes and were feeling overwhelmed and wanted the advise of a professional. Merging "his" and "hers" can be a difficult and sensitive process. In addition, I had difficulty trying to merge the color scheme of our blended items. I struggled to put it all together without seeing it visually. We needed someone to give us their expertise so that we could proceed. I contacted Jacqueline and she was able to squeeze us in for a consultation . She is VERY personable and professional. We love how she is no nonsense and did not give us "fluff"- She is direct and to the point during the consultation and very patient with all my questions. We plan to use her throughout our process for guidance. I am delighted that she seems as interested in creating my home as I am. She has been in contact with ideas since our consultation via text answering any questions I have.

I contacted Regal Bath & Kitchen for a remodel of my master bathroom. Let me start off by saying that I am actually happy with the quality of work that was performed. 90% of the remodel work was performed by an employee by the name of Eric who was professional & courteous the entire time he was in my home. The reason for the low rating was the Project Manager Rich was easily the rudest, most dis-respectful, & stand-offish Contractor that I have ever worked with. The remodel started off simple enough, pricing wasn't too bad, Rich did try to mark-up the Tile needed for the project to make a profit on it. Pretty typical for Contractors to try that, it balanced out when I told him that I priced out the Tile from their supplier & I knew how much they were paying for it, & I had selected a bathtub that was higher than my allotted price included the remodel estimate, so it evened out. The real issues started when some mold & termite damage was found under the old shower when it was demo'd. Rich did not want Regal Bath to take care of it, I'm guessing that he was worried about legal liability, but he did not have any info on Contractors to do this kind of work & I was left 100% responsible for taking care of everything without any help or direction from Regal Bath after giving them a $4000 deposit to start my remodel, & literally all the work that they had done so far was demo the old shower & tub. So after I called around & had a multitude of other Contractors in my home giving me estimates on the damage repair, I found out from a mold treatment company that per the EPA guidelines if the section of mold is less than ~10sq. ft. then anyone can take care of it. The mold was only on a section of my linen closet that was being demo'd to make room for us getting a bigger shower. After telling Rich this & texting him a link to the EPA info, he still had no intention of finishing the demo. So I demo'd the linen closet & treated the mold myself. Since I was wasn't about to pay for something that I had to do myself, I asked Rich how much he was charging me for the closet demo...$100 he claimed, I knew that he was full of crap, but in the interest of moving forward, I told him to make it $200 & just let it go. The Termite damage was repaired by another company who does damage restoration as well as remodels. So after 3 weeks of no progress on my remodel & my fiancee & I sharing a bathroom with our teenage children, Rich was ok with someone else signing off the repair work & progress could be resumed on my bathroom. After about 5 days worth of work, Rich was demanding another $4000 or the work would have to stop. I told him that the last I gave him $4000 the work DID stop on my bathroom, & I had plenty of other Contractors in my home who do remodels & they were wondering why he hadn't taken care of the repair work himself. I suggested a reasonable payment schedule to him of giving him $2000 the next day, another $2000 when all of the tile work had been completed, then dividing the final payment in two increments: one when the glass for the shower had been ordered & the last after it had been installed. Rich then lost his temper & proceeded to cuss me out saying that he didn't a s*%t what other Contractors said...& so on & so forth. He changed his tune when I didn't back down & told him that he could walk away from the project if he wanted to & that I would just hire someone else. He agreed to my proposed payment schedule & gave me a fake apology for cursing & losing his temper. I just wanted my bathroom done, so I agreed to let it go. They were also supposed to leave me the leftover Tile that I payed for once the project was complete, Rich had one of his guys pick it up knowing that I requested that they leave it, my guess is Rich wanted it for another project to maximize his profit. Some of the Tile was returned when I asked about where it went, but not all of it that was leftover. Even with all of that, I wasn't going to leave a negative review, I was willing to bygones be bygones & part ways on a friendly note. The final straw was when Rich came to pick up the final payment for the project. I gave him the final check & everything was paid in full, he shook my hand & proceeded to leave. I closed my door & was walking away when all of a sudden Rich rang my doorbell again. With a bad attitude & a complete change in demeanor, Rich claims "That check wasn't for the right amount, you are few thousand dollars short!!!", so he is accusing me of under paying. I told him that it was the correct amount & he needed to think about it for a bit, I had to recite all of the payments that were made to him. Then with another complete change in demeanor he says, "You're right, my mistake". Seriously...know how much money someone owes you BEFORE you go to collect it. So I would definitely Not rehire Regal Bath, just from my experience dealing with Rich. He either has some issues, or tries to take advantage of customers if they'll let him.

Jeremy the Handyman, of First Leaf Construction, quoted me $1,505.00 to hang several small sun shades in my backyard.  The work was completed a few months ago, with me providing the sun shades and Jeremy providing the miscellaneous hardware.  As you know we had some heavy winds the beginning of February and during that time the shades were blown down.  Several potted plants, cactus and strands of lights were destroyed, resulting in a few hundred dollars' worth of damage.  

I had two other contractors assess the installation.  Both contractors told me they would have installed the sun shades differently. Jeremy was contacted to access the damage and make the installation right.  Jeremy's solution was an additional estimate of $975 to reinstall the shades the way the other contractors would have done. I was not expecting any of the original damages to be reimbursed only that the shades be reinstalled and in a manner that they would not blow over in the next wind storm. I replied to the additional estimate of $975 with surprise and shocked that there would be an additional charge.  Jeremy then replied with "seek another vendor".
I then asked him to please come back and rehang the lights as they were originally.  No reply!
Today I received another email from Jeremy quoting a lower price on his 2nd estimate. After all of the above, he stated that he was clear on not being comfortable hanging the sails as others would have.  If he was not comfortable, why did he hang them initially and for 1505.00?

I feel I've been taken advantage of and am disheartened and disappointed that he did not stand by his work and make this small project right.
Unprofessional, not trustworthy.

I have recently had some renovation work done by Urban Element. I can't say enough good things about them. From the very start when Quentin came to give me an estimate to the finish of what could have been a very messy job, they excelled. I expected a big mess with tearing out a cast-iron tub ( a couple had told me they would have to saw it in half etc.) Not only did Urban Element get it out in one piece they also took out mud-based tile with hardly a fuss. If you have a job coming up that you are dreading, I highly suggest using Quentin and crew for a stress-free home improvement.

Urban Element goes above and beyond and I will definitely use them again for the next project.

After researching a few contractors, I chose Golden Bear contracting to do our 3 bathroom remodels. I could not have been happier with my choice. Mike did an outstanding job. He put in new countertops, sinks, faucets, flooring, mirrors, tile, reconfigured our shower, enclosed our tub, painted, etc. He was so easy to talk to, was always available to answer my many questions, such a hard worker, very responsible, and reliable. I am thrilled with my new bathrooms. If you have any doubts, read his reviews and hire him. You'll be so happy that you did!!

We used PHX Floors to redo the flooring and baseboards in our entire house. Mario and Victor were very responsive and did quality work. They showed up after hours and on the weekend to ensure the job was done correctly. We are very happy with the final result and everyone who walks in our home compliments our floors. They work with quality vendors and suppliers to get all their product.

Rick and his team (Mike and Kerry) were very professional and made my cabinet installation a breeze. Everyone knows remodeling can be very stressful, but these guys really work hard to mitigate issues and have the skill to handle complex installations. I would highly recommend Gaio contracting to anyone looking for a worry-free installation from a company that is trustworthy and qualified.

Great quality and patience please consider them for you next remodel. They won't let you down. They have great ideas and you won't regret the outcome. 10 stars personality and patience.

Requested a full remodel for our studio with Rene at Sunny View Drywall, recommended by a friend. We are very satisfied with the price, quality, and professional installation. Rene remodeled the studio in the timeframe that he promised. I will definitely be contacting Sunny View Drywall for any other services in the future!

One of the best experiences I've had with any builder here in the valley. Jerry makes the building process transparent and clear on what to expect and where to save money if you're on a budget for building a Luxury Home. He has an experienced and responsible team that includes, subcontractors, superintendents, front office personal, and designers.

I highly recommend Integrity Luxury Homes for all Custom new builds.

Tony his team literally saved me from a nightmare.  I hired someone who was getting their company up and going to make my brick wall higher in my backyard.  It was originally only 5ft tall and everyone could see in my backyard. This new company completely botched the wall and was not unstained it correctly.  I had to fire them on the spot but they've already created such a mess.  I contacted Tony to come check out the horrible job to see if he could provide me a estimate. He came out the next day and let me know what all needed to be done to correct the issue and finish the job.  The estimate was a fairly priced for the work ahead.  I agreed and he came back the next day with his team.  They had my wall done within hours which included reinforcing and correcting the problem from the first company.  He was super professional,  cleaned up their mess ALONG with the previous company mess  and the communication was great. I highly recommend Aldana Renovation

PLEASE NOTE:   Although my primary home is in the Tacoma area, this posting is about our second home in Surprise, AZ.

I wanted to do an widening of my backyard sliding glass door from 6 foot to 9 foot wide.   I am new to the area, so didn't "know a guy", but stumbled across Joe and Efficient Home Pro.   Joe came by and looked at the project and after talking to the window manufacturer, gave me a firm, fixed price for the project.   Now this involved removal of the old slider (with unknown issues about how it was installed), a new laminate header beam, new slider, and fix the outside stucco and inside drywall like it was original.  A complex project for sure.

I had the pleasure of working from home (thank you COVID-19) while Joe and team did the project.   I am pretty handy with home projects, so watched with interest as the team did their work.   I have to say that I have never been so impressed!   There were several points where key decisions had to be made and each were discussed, rationalized, and then acted upon.   To tell a long story shorter, they executed this transformation flawlessly!

But here is the best part.   Not only did they do the hard stuff with precision, but they also did the small stuff perfectly.   Every final opening was sealed with insulating foam, every piece of stucco was replaced and textured like it was new, and on the inside, it was impossible to tell that any work had been done (outside of paint).   And even better, the work space was cleaner than when they arrived.

Over the course of the project, I got the chance to talk to Joe about all his company can do, and I can say with confidence, that I now have a "Have a Guy".   And for far more than just windows.   Next step:  Replace the AC unit.

If you are interested in how real this posting is, please contact me.

We have had Interiors By Thomas (IBT) to our home for three different home improvement projects!!   Two bathrooms and most recently crown molding have been done.   WE ARE OVER AND BEYOND SATISFIED WITH THE  PROJECTS AND FINAL PRODUCT. Projects started on time, workers were there on time and when they said they would be there, everyone was friendly and extremely considerate and conscious of our needs, workers kept their projects as clean and neat as possible, Office staff is friendly and helpful and Tom and Randy are knowledgeable and demonstrate the highest levels of business integrity.  Well done IBT!  We hope we can think of another project for our home.  We would love to have you all back!

BUYER BEWARE - COMPLETE truth!

Qualizona... Haha they are hands down the absolute WORST contractor company in AZ (perhaps all of the USA!)

Yelp notified me of a fresh Qualizona review posted this morning by Cee T - right on Cee T! Truth speaker to the fullest!

I could not agree more with your assessment of Qualizona - they are the definition of a SHAM (due to Mike).

HIGHLY encourage anyone seeking contractor support for any project, any project at all, to make sure to NOT select Qualizona. Don't even think about it - they will do EXACTLY what Cee T said - steal your deposit, if Mike's involved, lies upon lies upon lies will be the hallmark of your communication through out your full engagement (until you just suck it up as a potential customer and realize Mike does not & will not perform work at all - then walk away realizing a fiscal & time loss, feeling beyond very dissatisfied).

With Qualizona, the only work done if Mike is involved at all, will be Mike working to test your patience & most definitely 'work' on more lies to tell customers, as well as his ability to not add any value to any project he had committed to.

Wish Yelp allowed for a ZERO star review for Qualizona - way to BLOW, Mike :)

Hope you're well, but you are an absolute scum bag & liar in all walks of business.

Mike - Please, please, please - reevaluate what you are doing to people's lives and their homes, as well as how you significantly contribute to the public's general distrust of contractors. We don't need any more negativity when we are searching for contractors to help fix problems that occur in our home's. You are the source of the problem, Mike.

Maybe find an entry level job (i.e. a janitor, where your work will be reviewed by a manager & not let the crap you pull continually slide).

Hassan - maybe you should do what Edge Restoration did & let Mike move on to something he is more suited for (entry level for sure & something which does not allow him to lie & victimize the public). Hopefully he hasn't yet done the inevitable & ruined your business!

I have pics, videos, emails, voicemails & more types of proof which fully aligns w/ Cee T's assessment.
Please let me know if you'd like copies of that proof.
I was going to go to the ROC & BBB & to seek civil & potentially criminal litigation (perks of free legal representation with my network).
But I didn't because I am busy, a positive energy person, and truth is, Mike is not worth even one more second of my time, nor my thought.

Mike - Good riddance, pal :)

I'll be done with sharing the truth (again ample proof exists if needed) - I don't plan to post it online because I don't think you (Hassan) are a thief & a liar with no morals & absolutely NO ethics, which is what Mike's being consists of (20 lbs of monkey poop in a 10 lb bag)

I cannot state how happy my house is with the work that was done to our home by Patterson Homes and there staff. It all started with a flood where we had to replace the drywall and carpets. I was out on vacation and my roommates let me know. I had remembered a recommendation from a friend for patterson homes and then got in contact with Chance McKelvie who was the project manager. He was amazing through the whole processes, he was quick to act and settled my mind when I was away from home. He made sure to keep both me and my household know what was happening every step of the way. My roommate a let me know how kind and helpful Chance and his whole staff were. When I got home it was all handled and it was better then when I left it. We liked the company so much we commissioned them for additional work such as our tile. That also was better than expected. We will continue using this company and as she definitely go above and beyond and make you feel cared about. We highly recommend the company and suggest you ask for Chance because he is amazing!
