Best Businesses in Arizona
I contacted Homework Remodels a couple of years ago to give me a quote on a complete kitchen remodel. The owner of the company, Steve Shinn, answered my call and after some brief discussion, he offered to come to my home and look at the space. He was there the next day.
We first walked around a bit so that Steve could get a sense of the style of the home. He asked a lot of good questions about what I envisioned in terms of the remodel and he asked about my budget. We agreed that the kitchen needed to be gutted (it was an original 1956 galley kitchen - basically untouched) and that the goal should be to end up with a more open feel and a more contemporary look. I was adamant that I wanted the end-product to be a very functional space, as I am an avid cook and I knew it had to be a top-quality kitchen. Steve had some great ideas in terms of how to accomplish those goals.
One of the best things that Homework Remodels did was propose some flush-mounted cabinets. He explained that we would need to build into the wall leading into the laundry room in order to create some depth for the cabinetry. I thought that was a fantastic idea, as it would create additional storage space in my kitchen -- much of which was going away due to opening up the wall between the kitchen and the living room. I readily agreed to this proposal.
Homework Remodels also suggested that I use some type of glass on the new flush-mounted cabinets to lighten things up a bit. All of the cabinetry in that room is dark wood (espresso), so I thought the use of ribbed and slightly opaque glass would really look great. Great idea!
The project ended up being a bit more involved than originally contemplated. One issue was that, in opening up the wall between the kitchen and the living room, we learned that the footings in my 1956 home were too shallow to pass muster with the City. The footings were required to be deeper and Homework Remodels was able to handle it without a problem. We also needed to widen a door to accommodate the new french-door refrigerator that I had ordered. Steve worked with me in terms of coming up with a reasonable price to widen the door.
In the end, I now have a beautiful kitchen. Totally redone and totally functional. My opinion is that Homework Remodels did an excellent job on this project and I would recommend them to others.

I think its fair to say that a large percentage of remodeling projects end with either a desire for divorce, to torch your contractors truck and office, or both. Not so with our most recent significant remodel,
Working with our contractor, Jerry Nowell, his office and the highly skilled and good natured subs he employed, resulted in an experience and outcome that surpassed our expectations. Jerry is a standup guy who was always keeping us updated on all aspects of the project including the good, the bad and, on occasional, ugly. If there were hold ups he was very quick to let us know why and what he had done to address the related issue.. No surprises. When we found ourselves questioning how we wanted to proceed on some aspect of the project, his experience and good eye proved invaluable in the decision process. On many occasions he helped steer us clear of making unnecessarily expensive decisions ,often showing greater concern for our stated budget than we.
Jerry has the unique gift of bringing calm to even the most hectic and potentially stressful aspects of the process. In short we can't recommend him highly enough and or begin to express our true gratitude for his professionalism, honesty and patience throughout the process. Jerry, Yvonne and all the subs, sincerest thanks.

We had a flood at our rental. The complete destruction of our dining room happened. Red Eye Construction came in and did a beautiful job with the put back and with quality materials, and in a very timely manner. They worked so well with our tenant who is having a very rough time in his personal life right now. I highly recommend this company you will not regret this choice in hiring Red Eye Construction to do any remodeling you may need.

Now we bought a piece a of granite from another company and hired Apache Tile Outlet to pick it up and fabercate it for us and install it as well. Well first i had to locate the granite and arrange for its delivery. Then after it was installed i was accused of not paying them and a check bounced and they never recieved payment. After arguing with Shane the manager come to find out the installer was paid in full and was playing games. Then my extra granite is now missing and never returned and the broke the piece that was installed. I am now been fighting with them since November of 2022 and still not fixed or my granite brought to me. I am filing compliants with the ROC as well as with in the court system to get my money back for the granite and what it has cost me to get it done right. DO NOT USE THEM IT WILL BE A HEADACHE. Also will regret it as well.

I was extremely happy with the work TJC performed on my remodel. I'm a perfectionist which is challenging for anyone to handle. They met my super high expectations. I love my new bathroom!

My window job was small, (4 windows) but I am very pleased with the quality, professional workmanship, and overall install experience. Joseph and his crew were polite, knowledgeable, neat inside and outside my home. They were conscientious on all issues. I recommend this contractor!

We came across XLT Construction through the Home Advisor website. They have excellent reviews, other websites do, as well as the few on Yelp. Based on other reviews, we decided to go with them. While I'm certain they have hundreds of satisfied customers, unfortunately we are not one of them.
We hired XLT Construction Inc. to remodel our children's upstairs small bathroom and the initial estimate was competitive. Leonel was helpful in picking out plumbing parts (non-diverter tub spout, wall diverter, on/off valve & trim) needed two weeks in advance of the project. He stated that all the plumbing parts will be ordered and be ready prior to the start date. On the first day of the remodel, the workers did not have the parts with them, and we had to explain to them the three exact parts needed. Since Leonel didn't order the parts ahead of time, we couldn't get the designer tub spout we wanted in time.
They installed the decorative tile and grout the same day and ended up making the tiles uneven. We had to make them do it a second time. The second time, they did it right. See photos.
The workers' carelessness while working on plumbing caused smelly water to leak thru to kitchen ceiling downstairs and affected the base of new vanity wood panel that they just installed! The workers initially offered to paint over the ceiling, but I insisted they cut and replace the ceiling's dry wall as it left obvious stains. See photos.
Some welding had to be done outside the house and we now have permanent stains in the driveway. The worker asked for detergent and made an attempt to clean it, but the spots are still there. See photo.
After install of the new sink and cabinets, they did the plumbing. They tested them and said everything was fine. After they were gone, we did our own tests on both sinks, and both had leaks. At this point, we had enough of his workers and told Leonel we'll get someone else to fix the leaks. The workers contacted us and said they'd come back and work on it a second time. When they worked the right side sink, they changed one pipe part. Since they didn't have it in black, they installed a white component!? The left sink leak wasn't properly fixed the second time too, so in the end, the other guy decided to use pipe cement and made the pipe joints permanent?! Any adjustments to the pipes in the future requires cutting of pipe instead of simple removal, all done without informing me. I would have said NO to the pipe cement. We informed Leonel we'd get back to him after using the new bathroom for a couple of weeks. As of now, we still have a slow leak under the right sink. At this point, we are debating whether to let them come back and try again, or hire someone else since they already have tried twice to fix the right sink. See photos.
There were some discrepancies between the estimates and actual work needed; area needed to be tiled was more than stated in estimate; pricing of the decorative tiles would have been cheaper had I bought it myself. Before signing the contract Leonel said he would produce receipts at the end of the job. When I asked to see receipts, Leonel refused and told me there is no lowering of tile pricing. He stormed out of my house, slammed the door and drove away quickly; that was very unprofessional and rude in my opinion.
We then realized that when I had signed off on the first estimate on Leonel's iPad, the 2nd and 3rd adjusted estimate had my initial digital signature on all of them. Apparently, my digital signature was captured on Leonel's iPad and he was able to duplicate it on other paperwork that I didn't sign for.
On many websites its obvious XLT Construction has many positive reviews, however, our experience was a very frustrating and disappointing one.

Did a whole home remodel and couldn't be happier. Slade and Trinity Homes are the best of the best. High quality work, fair pricing, and very responsive. Slade is straight forward and easy to work with which is what you want when you're doing a stressful remodel. Our project was quoted as 6+ months by several contractors, but we decided to go with Trinity Homes and Slade and his crew came in and did it in about 3.5 months. That's pretty much unheard of for home remodels. A+ Highly Recommended
