Best General Contractors in Phoenix, AZ

Original Review from February 2013:

Thanks to the "Homework" team for doing a fantastic job on our bathroom (complete remodel) and kitchen door to our 1920s "historic neighborhood" home. My wife and I are thrilled with the craftsmanship and attention to detail. The primary contractor, Rod, is just a great guy and clearly cares about the satisfaction of each customer. He noticed a few slight imperfections that we didn't even notice and fixed them himself ---and its that kind of attention to the little, tiny details that really makes a difference.

During the planning process we received several estimates from different companies, but we were impressed with Steve's straight-forward approach. When a delay on our end meant that he could not finish the job as initially promised, he was upfront about that, and didn't fib or downplay it just to get our business. We found that refreshing and hired your company. A decision that we are glad we made. My wife and I give you our highest recommendation

DECEMBER 2015 UPDATE:

A few months ago we realized we had a serious leak in our bedroom.  The remediation company thought the causation was the air conditioner and removed the heavily damaged wood flooring in our bedroom.  As they continued remediation efforts we noticed "new" water pooling in our bedroom closet and realized the problem may be our shower.  We called Steve at Homework Remodels and told him about the problem and asked him to come out and take a look.  Steve came out the next day with his team and examined the problem.  We couldn't be home due to work, so we "trusted" Steve to let us know the problem.  Steve removed part of the wall between the bathroom and the closet to examine the shower that his company had put in a few years ago.

Steve then called me at work to tell me that the problem was a big leak in the shower that his company put in.  It seems the subcontractor made a serious mistake in order to get the waterproof "liniing" in and made it vulnerable to leaks.   Steve then assured me, without being asked, that his company would fix the problem and fix everything.   My wife and I were estatic to find that when something goes wrong, there are still folks who stand completely behind their work and their promises.

Now a few weeks later, the leak has been repaired and the shower completely redone (correctly).  We are very happy the work and the continued integrity of his company.  Keep in mind, we weren't home when he inspected the leak and he really could have blamed it on anything --or even applied some sort of "quick fix" to the leak and covered it up.  Instead he was completely honest and fixed it the right way.  I have complete trust in Steve, Rod, and the Homework team and highly recommend them.

Brad has done 2 projects for us, he built a Casita on our residential property.  We had been working with another contractor that had drug their feet and Brad and his team came in and got the job done quickly, during the beginning of the COVID issue.  He really came through for us.
The second was a commercial project, he remodeled our office, at our business in Chandler.  We had a quick deadline to get it done and they did an amazing job, excellent price and it was done on time.  
Highly recommend Brad and his team!

We asked Distinctive Construction to help us turn a seldom used bedroom in to a mega closet and they didn't disappoint. They did a phenomenal job and we're extremely happy with the work. Everyone was professional, courteous and nice. I would highly recommend them for any work you need done!

Jesus from JYK Construction did the job of removing loose, water damaged stucco from the street side of my garden wall, redid the stucco and repainted.
He was easy to communicate with in English, came promptly to view the job and gave me the estimate within a day. He was easier to work with than other, bigger companies.
Their estimate was reasonable and they offered a warranty so I gave them the job. They came exactly when stated, Jesus and his helper worked hard and did a good job.
I can recommend them. They are a very small company but they do competent work.

We hired Arizona's Best Handyman to remodel the kitchen and living room and paint the whole interior our patio home that we purchased this summer. They were referred to us by one of the sales reps at Arizona Tile, who had used them several times in her home. We were not disappointed! Glenn, Tina and their staff did an excellent job and my wife and I were very happy. They did all aspects of the remodel work (electrical, wood flooring, backsplash tile, cabinet refinishing, painting, fireplace remodel) except for the installation of the kitchen countertops. It was so nice to work with one contractor who could handle all aspects of the job! The final costs were in line with their quotes and they never tried to nickel and dime us. In fact they did not charge us to restain the fireplace mantle, after we changed our mind on the initial stain color. Glenn and Tina are so easy to work with and will give you suggestions based on their experience, but won't ever pressure you.

We were so happy with their work, that we just hired them again to remodel our master bathroom!

Clover home  came in and Shiplap my guest bathroom. They were great and I would recommend them for sure. I have had Clover home before,and I would have them again to do work in my home .

This job was approximately $13,000 in overall remodeling costs.  I expected the owner/contractor to be more involved and hands on" and aware of what was occuring on the job site.  A worker, who at the time said he'd been with the company approximately 4 months, was the primary person on my job.  While the work was completed in a timely fashion there was damage to my tub, which was not present when the remodel work began!  However, the owner only had a "chip" fixed in the tub,  but would not fix the crack in the tub which was not there before the work started.    The owner, Patrick Benkowski,  denied responsibility for the damage.  Also, as tile was being cut, the water and debris from the water used on the job was poured into my grass and my grass died.  The owner denied responsibility, indicating that they had not killed my grass.  I would not recommend this contractor.

crappy attitude during estimate, spent more time talking about the fact he was a celebrity around phoenix because he does radio shows instead of being focused on the estimate of the house. really full of himself, didn't know what he was talking about, had 5 other estimates before him and he really was the worst.  shocked he he does this for a living in the first place way more interested in his show than in doing work.  wouldn't recommend to anyone

Had an appointment set with Rocky Dunn. He did not show up or bother to call. He did not answer phone or return our call when we tried to follow up. I had taken time off work for this appointment.

We have used Dustin for 3 jobs. Up until now I loved his work. However, this last time was highly disappointing. We had an $11,000 job, no small amount of cash for us, and rarely saw him. Mistakes were made that he said I should have caught and told him about and that he would have caught it eventually. When... if he never came?Subcontractors were the only ones at the job. I rarely heard from him. I refused to accept crooked barn doors and and now still waiting 7 weeks later to have the room completed with the doors remaining.
Beware that small ticket items like a 10k job you will be working with other people and not him.   It's too "basic" and on the low end of his work.

I paid David Roberts $9000 for a home project in Kingman that he has done little work on that was to be completed in June 2021. I understand that he has personal issues that have complicated his life, however, he is a businessman and needs to complete his contract with me. I will replace this adverse review with a positive recommendation upon completion of the project. David did call me today assuring me that he would get back on the job. Let's get it done, David. Until then I could not recommend doing business with you.
