Best Businesses in Arizona

I had mixed feelings about how I wanted to rate this company.  
The good- George is a nice guy, returned my message pretty quick and came out the next day to look at my yard and gave me a quote.  Took about 3 weeks from that initial visit for them to start my project (which I thought was great because at these times, most companies seem to be booked out for months and are not even taking on any new projects.)

The bad- once the project was started, the completion of it kept getting pushed back- he would text me on the day when he was scheduled to come, and would say he would come the following week instead.  This happened 4 times.
Our project consisted of paver placement to widen our driveway and to create a pathway to our side gate, as well as paver steps leading up to our front door pathway.  Design was great.  Quality of work was poor.  There wasn't enough cement applied on the sides of the pavers on the side pathway initially, so the pavers shifted. He did fix this, but when I also looked at the cement applied to the edge of the extended driveway, I have concerns that it isn't going to hold...we'll see how that goes.  There also wasn't enough sand applied in between the pavers- I ended up doing this myself.  The steps that were made for us looked great, but after he completed the work and moved all the rock back, I discovered later that evening that several of the pavers easily come off and were not glued in properly.  I told George about it and it's been 2 weeks and he never texted me back.  Oh and he says there's no surprise costs, but he tacked on another $75 at the very end without advance notice for the steps because it took more work than expected. He didn't even replant my agave that he said he would move for me in the beginning.  I ended up fixing and doing everything myself to make sure things were actually done right and done well.

I would be wary of using this company- they seem to start projects quickly, probably so that you're stuck using them, but quality and completion may not be as expected.

We asked Valleywide to come out and give a quote for quite a bit of demo work in our back and front yards that included haul away, concrete demo, block demo. Initially, Ben was so friendly and promised quite of bit on behalf of his company. His initial consultation with us even gave hope that he could eventually help us do some extensive remodel to the back door/patio of our house and the back wall of our master bedroom. When it came time to estimate the project, Valleywide advised they were equipped to do not only our demo and haul away, but also construct a new block wall, lay a new cement slab and install new gates for us. We were so excited to have found an all-in-one company, so we scheduled our project as soon as they were free.

Once the project started, it was downhill from there. They first advised they'd be a day late, then days late, then over a week late. Once they began, the demo went okay aside from a cracked drip line that we repaired ourselves. The pivot from demo to construction was atrocious. We were told a mason was scheduled to come out to construct our block wall. They didn't show for a week. After some serious questioning from our neighbors and HOA, we pressured Valleywide to get back out ASAP, and they ultimately did show up the following Monday but without a mason. Ben and his partner, who didn't appear to be masons, spent the better part of three days trying to figure out how to properly align our wall. They laid slab over the footings and ultimately created an uneven base for their project. We don't love the end result, but the wall was finally finished after the mason arrived on Thursday that week. In short, it as a sloppy finish that we'll have to sand down before we paint.

Lastly, the real kicker for me is in the details. From the beginning of this project, our biggest concern was installing new gates that properly fit the fence openings, opened and closed with ease (unlike our last RV gate) and did not offer any openings big enough for our small dogs to fit through. Late Friday afternoon, the final day of the project, one guy was left on the job installing the gates. They were installed with a substantial opening at the bottom that our dogs could easily crawl under. The gentleman was nice enough to adjust the height at the end of his shift. When I opened and closed the RV gate, i realized they overlapped slightly and will not close without some force. Worse off, you have to throw your shoulder into the gate to get it to open. And as if that's not frustrating enough, they used the smallest screws to attach the composite slats to the frame that do not go all the way through the slat. In less than 2 weeks, most of those screws popped right off and are completely incapable of holding the fence slats together. When I asked Ben about the construction and size of the frame, his answer was that's as good as we can get it. We'll be in the market soon for a properly fitted gate to replace the complete waste of money this gate ended up being.

If it isn't clear by now. I would not recommend allowing this company to take your money and contract out some truly terrible work. Their demo quality (the namesake of their company) was fine. Do yourself a favor and put in the extra leg work to have other professional companies do the rest of the job.

We got three estimates to have the exterior of our house painted. We chose Crash of Rhinos. They were not the most expensive or the least expensive. They were very reasonably priced and although each person gave us similar information, we really liked what Mike said and promised during our meeting with him.

One of the things we liked was their policy of not paying until the job is complete and Mike has done a walk around the property with the homeowner to make sure everything has been done right and to everyone's satisfaction.

We had to schedule about 8 weeks out but the crew showed up promptly on Day 1.
They were all awesome and conscientious hard workers.
Meticulous prep and cleanup too!

Communication was perfect.
We were kept in the loop via email and phone every step of the way and Kim came out to make sure the paint colors we chose were truly to our liking.

Everything went according to plan, although the weather threw us a few rainy days. Crash of Rhinos did an absolutely fantastic job on everything, the house, the gates the doors, the block walls, every single thing was done beautifully.

They even understood we have three large dogs who had to have access to the backyard several times each day. No problems. No concerns. We couldn't be happier with the results and have already recommended them to two neighbors who complimented us on how nice everything looks.

Our house is sixteen years old and looks brand new!!!
Two thumbs way up for Crash of Rhinos!!!

Phoenix Outdoor Living is awesome! Tom Moss, Director of Field Operations, was a pleasure to work with. They just finished my yard work and everything cane out perfect. We contracted with them to extend our property wall out by eight feet along the garage to allow for a door from the garage to the backyard. Additionally, they installed patio pavers to create a pad for my garbage/recycle cans, a walkway from the gate to the driveway, and steps off my the side of my front porch. The work was very professionally done, they cleaned up well, and they were very accommodating to any questions or requests I made. I highly recommend this company and I plan to bring them back on future projects. Thanks Tom & Team!

EZE Decor Concrete stained and sealed my 1,000 sf patio and walkway.  I am very pleased with the results. The patio looked old and worn and had a crack and they made it look new again.  ...Can't see the crack!  I would highly recommend this company.

Joseph and his crew at Falcon Landscaping did a great job on our backyard / side pavers.. Very professional and work was completed on time. Fully recommend their team!!

Efficient and professional. The driveway turned out great! Gave some good recommendations after to help maintain the concrete.

Completely dependable, willing to re-evaluate their initial resolution to correct a building poorly constructed (by a different company), A-1 Concrete created the needed remedy.    My job was relatively small, but still they chose to address my problem thoughtfully with attention to the aesthetic side to the repair as well.

American Materials came out and poured two sections for me. Footer for the back yard and front driveway extension. Guy was awesome and worked with us in getting the truck in the back to pour. Was recommended by Rock Solid. Keep in mind this is a mix on site truck and not a ready to pour truck. I guess it makes a difference in consistency for the cement. Either way these fellas did a great job and my finisher nailed it. Thanks fellas.

Scottsdale Concrete did a fantastic job with my concrete project. It was quite complicated and they knocked it out of the park. They are reliable, skilled and kind. Call them now for your concrete needs!

I have not used them personally but my experience with one of their drivers was uncomfortable

They apparently are doing a job here in our community in Buckeye.

Driving up Indian School in the middle of the day / this particular driver switched into my lane without signaling and very abruptly. Had I not of been paying attention and slammed on my breaks / he would have hit me. I hit the horn to get his attention / he started waving his arms around and gesturing at me. I was wondering what in the world made him get over like that. When I looked ahead about a 1/2 a mile the lane was ending but he had plenty of time without cutting me off.

As I passed him / he again gestured and was laughing while looking at me.

This is not a guy I would want representing my company so I wanted it out there. Bullying a woman alone in her car - not great

we had our dog grooming area done this weekend by Your Coatings Guys. They did an excellent job. I am hoping to have them do the rest of our floors very soon. There service was prompt and done in a timely manner. I highly recomment these guys for your flooring needs.

Tony was punctual and Crew was on time. Brick added to home and did great job. Follow up and contact was  awesome.

Scheduled a time to meet. They didn't show, didn't call, didn't text. My time is valuable and I dont appreciate moving my schedule around for no reason.

AIO delivered prompt and professional service as they remodeled my home. I definitely recommend this company over anyone else that I have worked with in the past!

The Owner has many family members who work for him & they are rude & unprofessional. They don't care about how shoddy their work is & they are sure to push off work onto non-family staff. Many jobs take longer than they should. The company charges more than other companies. Family is paid better & treated better than their other Employees. Sad to see small businesses run this way. It happens more than anyone is aware! Many people don't take the time to write a review. Please people do your diligent research on any company you want to hire for business. And ask other people you know, if they have heard about a business you could possibly hire! Word of mouth is important!!

BEWARE! Do not use this guy! He claimed he knew how to do stamped concrete with color and my patio and walkway looks like awful! He hasn't made it right and actually had the gall to tell me he took my trash when he left. Seriously he left trash at my home along with a mess, color on my walls, gates, footprints in the concrete and the edges aren't even. I gave him 3 weeks to come by and bn look at it and  fix it and no call no showed! See photos below of what I initially wanted and the subsequent photos of how it actually turned out...Now I have to find someone to fix this mess!
