Best General Contractors in United States

After reading so many positive reviews, I had high hopes that Michael would be able to complete the project at my home - resealing my deck and doing some drywall work. He sent me a quote ($580 for the patio and $75 for drywall repair) and I asked him for a breakdown of the charges. The following is the exact text exchange:

Me: What's the breakdown of your bill? Materials and labor?

Michael: $580.00 For the patio floor and $75.00 Patch the walls
Total: $655.

Me: No, the breakdown of the patio floor. Labor vs. materials cost?

Michael: I don't have a breakdown I gave you a price for labor and material if that is not enough for you I cannot help you I'm sorry good luck

Me: Sorry, I was not intending to offend. Just curious as to what terials cost and how many of hours of labor the job might need.

Michael: Be safe and good luck.

I found his answers to be unprofessional at best and shady at worst. I think any contractor should be able to give a breakdown of their expenses, if the expenses are REASONABLE. Even if it's just an estimate. I was very disappointed in this interaction.

If you are looking for an Iron Door come to Eric! This couldn't be better! The quality is amazing and Eric was very experienced and professional! Communication was perfect and He actually showed up and finished on time. We couldn't be happier. Did I mention he was about half the price of any local Iron Door Company!

Water damage from AC condisation   pipe being plugged up. Two story house and we were out of town when this happened. We are very happy that
Kim and  Kyle King with Diversified Remodeling LLC
Came to the rescue.

Golden Bear Contracting was a real life saver. Installed a sink in the kitchen that was otherwise not going to fit and I'd have to return. But I loved my new sink so I was determined to make it fit. He did a great job!

I called Aqua Therapy to get an estimate on a shower kit remodel.  I talked with Derek, and he was extremely professional and sent over an estimate pretty quickly.  After receiving the estimate, I called him to discuss what options would save money.  He quickly sent me a new estimate and we scheduled a date for him to come out.  The job came out perfect.  I can definitely say that Derek is a man of his word, his reliability and service were well above par.  His costs were in-line with what was quoted.  I am planning to hire him for my next shower remodel.

I hired them to add a closet to a room in my house.  They had to deal with framing, drywall, baseboards, paint, electrical & flooring.  It came out great, looks like it's part of the original house.  I would use them again.

I was very happy with the efficiency, workmanship and overall professionalism of all the workers that participated on my bathroom project. Thank you Niksi!

These guys have been around forever, they care about the long-term relationship.  My first experience with Qualtire was almost 30 years ago (They have been at the same location since the 1960's)  when my father needed some sewer line work.  It was going to be expensive, but they worked with him to make it affordable by showing him exactly where to dig so he could to the digging himself.  Once the digging was done they came back and did the plumbing part. That saved my Dad a lot of money.

Whenever I need plumbing thy are the only people I call.

4 Stars for work
1 Star for reliability

Geremy installed floating wood shelves in the kitchen and did a good job. They're sturdy and look good, but could have been finished better in the end. Putty was left to dry and I had to have my handyman sand it all down as well as add more where there were some noticeable gaps at joints. I didn't ask Geremy come back to finish because it wasn't the end of the world to have to have someone else finish, it just would have been nice if he had completed the job himself. There was also an incident where he accidentally leaned against the stove knobs, turned on the burner and melted plastic on my brand new stove top that had never been used. It wasn't able to be cleaned up complete which is a bummer, but the worst part is he didn't tell me about it- I had to hear from my handman.

I hired him for a second job- a pergola over my back patio. After he rescheduled a couple of times and then didn't show up another one or two times, he finally came, but came so late in the day that he ran out of time and couldn't install my string lights. I went ahead and paid him the full amount for the job but I've never been able to get him to come back to finish the lights that he said he'd be back to hang the following day. After a lot of excuses, several texts and a phone call and continuing to tell me he'd come back to hang them, he still hasn't finished the job. I've been waiting since May 20th and now he isn't responding to my messages at all.

It's a shame because his work is good, but reliability and communication are terrible.

We have used Ken for over a decade and on at least 15-20 projects.  Great guy with great communication skills.  Always happy with his work and his prices.  He has worked in our home while we on vacation and we never had any issues.  I have also flipped a couple houses and used Ken on those projects.  I would recommend him to anyone.

They truly were a lifesaver.  Had a plumbing issue and the first time they came out, they helped me save money and get a replacement part instead of a brand new install and then they came back quickly when I received my replacement part and installed it for me.  They always took safety precautions and were so helpful and professional.  Will definitely use again.

I would like to take this opportunity to highly praise ACR and the efforts of their hardwood floor installation crew led by Mario. Mario along with two other gentlemen were the installation team for this job.  They were very professional, hardworking, and courteous to us the whole time they were here.  Each day at 8:00am like clockwork they rang our doorbell, and worked their butts off until 5:00pm or 6:00pm that evening.  The amazing thing is we did not see them take many breaks and they usually had lunch while they continue to work.  Now that is amazing service in this day and age!    At the end of each day's work, Mario and his crew would clean up after themselves, organize their tools for the next day, and load their truck with the old carpet heading for the trash.  That way each night my family did not feel like they were sleeping in a construction site.

As for knowledge and professionalism, Mario definitely showed these qualities throughout the time he was installing our floors.  He was there each step of the installation process to explained things and answer any question we had on what he was doing.   And boy did we him a lot of questions!  When a person spends large amounts of money to put in a new floor he wants to make sure it is done correctly .  And Mario delivered.   Well done Mario!  Thank you so much for your expertise, professionalism, courtesy, and especially your effort on the work you did in our home.  

In ending I  like to thank your company for having such high quality people from the estimator Rebecca to the floor installer Mario.  We definitely will use your company for future home projects.  We are so ecstatic on the way our floors turned out.  A funny story.   Yesterday, a friend of my wife came by for a visit and she liked the way our floors came out so much that she took one of the extra pieces of wood home with her to show her husband.  She now wants to put in hardwood floors in their home.

After searching many vendors for the purpose of getting new granite countertops for my kitchen and hall bathroom without finding the kind of quality stone I wanted, I found Petrus Countertops and was immediately well-impressed by the slabs at their warehouse. They hand-pick only the best granite and quartz. I was able to find exactly the kind of grey granite with white streaks that I had in mind. Compared to big box stores and chains, their granite seems more like marble, and can provide unique slabs that bigger chain stores can't. I also was very happy with the quality of the installation work, and the fact that they provide removal of old countertops, the option of adding sinks, and an in-house plumbing service to disconnect and reconnect the sinks and fixtures. I highly recommend Fabio and Luiz at Petrus for all your stone countertop needs.

I just wrapped up my 3rd job with JM Contracting and we couldn't be happier!!! The first job Josh (owner) did for me was our back patio roof. We discussed a drainage issue and out of all of the other bids I obtained and telling them all the same issue, Josh was the ONLY one that suggested we get an architect/engineer to address the problem. He naturally got my bid! Josh got on top of the drainage issue and once the engineer/architect (Quincy) did his calculations, pictures, etc. we came up with a solution. Josh was able to do the entire job, also addressing an issue with my sagging roof that was putting all its weight on my french door lintels which required shoring it up and stabilizing it, he stayed just outside of our original budget.
We have had NO problems with drainage since and that has saved my master bedroom floor!

Josh remodeled my master bathroom and my father's bathroom within the past 4 months as well. The outcome is stellar!!! Our bathrooms now look like they came right off of HGTV! No kidding! I highly recommend JM Contracting for all your contracting jobs. Josh is great to work with, his team (including his subs) are spot on too. Josh oversees everything and he is a total prefectionist...a keen eye for detail and making sure it looks 110% perfect!  Thanks Josh for such great work! We will be using him for our next remodel of our kitchen and our pool decking too!

Martin and his team are some of the best in the Valley!! They are so kind, thoughtful, respectful, and genuinely kind people. We are so pleased with all the work they helped us with, including a new fireplace and surround, wainscoting, whole home painting, lighting, shiplap, and many other projects! Outstanding communication and even better people! It's been a pleasure to meet Martin and Calvary Tile & Stone will be my first and only contact when we need any construction, electrical, and/or any other help!

Mike and his crew remodeled our kitchen last winter(2016) which included removing part of a wall and all new floor, cabinets, and counter tops. We couldn't be happier with the way it turned out. We get compliments from everyone that visits. They do great work! My only complaint is that it sometimes took Mike awhile to get back to us and follow up on status of the project. I understand the life of a busy contractor though so I'm not going to hold that against them.

Used TWD for some drywall cracks in my home from settling and they did a great job. It was a bit more expensive than I was planning on to fix a few cracks but the good job they did made me accept the price I paid.
