Best General Contractors in United States

We recently purchased a new home & I needed help making it ours. I contacted Jacquie & it's the best thing I've ever done! She came up with a plan to suit our home & budget. I'm so glad she was patient with us! We love our redesigned home & certainly could not have done it without Jacquie's expertise! We highly recommend Jacquie for your next project! I guarantee you won't be disappointed!

Regal Bath and Kitchens did a beautiful job remodeling our master bathroom. We wanted to get rid of the bathtub, the tiny shower, and the 90's style lower vanity with the massive mirror.  We didn't even think there was room to do all that we wanted but their end result made the room look larger than it was .  Best of all, this was at a price we could afford.

Rich helped us get things started by meeting at the showroom to see styles on display and to pick out tiles for the floor and walls.  We could see the samples for the vanity, the sinks and the fixtures.  It made it easier to coordinate things when we could see how everything looked together, and we were able to select exactly what we wanted in each area.  We did have to choose a second tile by going to Floor and Décor later on because our wall tile was out of stock, but the replacement one was beautiful and the sales lady there also helped us coordinate things.

The remodel included removing a wall and some other decorative arches in the bathroom.  They had to move the water pipes for the shower.   The shower included so many nice features - a bench, a toe pick near the shower heads, two shower heads - a rain style one and a hand held one - a switch to use one or both heads at the same time, a niche for toiletries, and the controls to turn the water on near the entrance to the shower so it was warm by the time we got into the shower.  They also agreed to install new light fixtures, towel racks and mirrors which we purchased elsewhere.  They suggested that we hire others to paint the walls for us.

They did an exception job with the plumbing.  The  slope of the floor in the shower is just right so that all the water runs into the drain and the drain is big enough that it has never gotten clogged.

Whenever, we had a problem or concern, Rich was reassuring saying that he would take care of everything we wanted.  The crew was proud of the work they did and were always cheerful to have working in our home.  John was especially careful of keeping the dust off our rugs and in the master bathroom area. Every day he carefully covered the beds with plastic so they could be used at night.  Jesus worked exceptionally hard getting the tiles on the bottom of the shower installed.

The end result has received a "Wow" from everyone who sees it. We would hire them again to remodeled our hall bath.

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.

We had a few drawer brackets break in our hutch  and Quentin and Kenny helped us in a quick and professional manner.  Thank you for your excellent service!

Strangely, my wife's review was in the non-recommended area.  In any case, I've posted our bathroom photos, the workmanship speaks for itself.  

Mike and his partner did all the tile work, plumbing, electrical and some touchup painting themselves, no subcontractors - with the exception of the glass shower wall/doors, which everyone subcontracts.  Overall, we are VERY pleased with the outcome.

They were on time every single day and completed the project in just under the estimated time of two weeks.  Would have finished even sooner, had the shower door people not needed about a week and a half after measuring (pretty standard - we had a different contractor do our other bathroom and it was a two week wait as well).  
As said, a great job and we plan to call him about our kitchen, hopefully late this year, finances permitting.

Great quality materials and quick install. Reasonably priced as well. Used this company and have referred others as a result of the work.

I really can't say enough about Gaio Contracting. I was lucky to have them install my kitchen. The owner/Rick is very hands on & a perfectionist of installations. Very kind & knowledgeable on how to keep the supply & demand moving. His wife also just as kind & nice. Old school pleasantries & speaking to you not at you. Recommend highly, even over some "big box" companies.

These guys are absolutely the best! They repaired my stucco fence walls and replaced fascia on the eaves of my house (even had to build a scaffolding over my pool to do so!). They were prompt, courteous, and professional in every way.
I highly recommend their work.

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.

I used Aldana Renovations to do some repairs to my subfloor that had water damage. Andoni came out and did an awesome job of repairing the flooring as reinstalling the laminate above it. His prices were more than fair, he was on time, and worked quickly. I would definitely recommend him.

Ever since I moved into my condo in Sun City, during the heavy rains, water would seep under the patio door into the Arizona room. I had people tell me that it couldn't be repaired. But Joe and Jeff came out, took off the whole door, fixed the problem with the bottom plate not being sealed down properly, replaced the trim, and even put new trim around the two patio windows. The wall with the patio door was not even tightly fastened down, so it moved! They fixed all of those things, including several issues not in the initial quote, at no extra charge. I was also doing some remodeling in my bathroom but had gotten stuck. So, while they were here for the patio door, Joe also did some work in the bathroom, even though that was not why they had come out. They were wonderful! I highly recommend Joe and Efficient Home Pro.

We had several contractors for bids to update our kitchen and bathrooms and out of all of them, Interiors by Thomas was the only one that had a detailed description with the line by line itemization of the cost. After discussing our final options we chose this company and even though we have not yet started our project, the customer service we have received from Tom, Ronnie and Lindsay has been excellent. After our project is completed, I will do another review but I think it will also be a 5 star!

BUYER BEWARE!
QUALIZONA = SHADY, LIARS & THIEVES!

CONS - TOO MANY TO FULLY CAPTURE!

Mike (one of the front men / co-owners @ Qualizona) came out to 'help' with a significant water damage claim.

He is a smooth talker, he is the reason why contractors, in general, have a negative connotation associated with the contractor community, and unfortunately, I fell for it.

He quickly provided all sorts of details and stories about the high quality work which his company is known for & quick turnarounds he promised to complete to get my home back to its pre-damage state. He also spun a tale which firmly created a 'fear' environment, stating work must begin ASAP or insurance would not pay for the damages, and how he would be the only person to trust in this process. He claimed this was because insurance companies ALWAYS cheat policy holders. He also claimed the goal of your insurance company is to NOT help you, and only pay for as little as possible. ALL lies!!

Mike capitalized on my lack of experience with insurance claims, the full scope involved with the repair, and what he fabricated as he described of how things really work with insurance claims to his advantage.  

Mike created an 'us' (Qualizona & me) vs the evil insurance industry scenario leveraging the fabricated tale he told. He used this to have me sign a 'standard' & very 'contractor-friendly' contract immediately. The contract actually served to limit my rights,  granted me no ability to cancel, nor get my deductible returned, put no responsibility on Qualizona to perform work within any time period, and no time line which work must be completed by.

He stated I was in the best hands possible, that he was a former insurance claim adjuster & new all their tricks, and that Qualizona would be there any needed to help to ensure that all work would be completed within a two weeks maximum after signing the contract & paying him the deductible immediately via a personal check. As described below this could not be further from the truth.  

He also claimed I needed to sign his contract immediately to allow work to begin, and that Qualizona could begin working right then and there, while also managing the whole claim for me.

Sounded great! ... but then reality hit.

The next thing that happened was Mike received that signature on his contract, and a check from me to him (not Qualizona) for $1k to cover my deductible required by home insurance.

Then Mike was kind enough to 'get right go work' completing about $150 worth of work towards the ~$20k total damage associated with the insurance claim. He then left my home in a VERY messy state, debris was EVERYWHERE. He deposited my check, and then he completed ghosted me for about 3 weeks. ZERO communication at all - I tried calling, emailing, contacting Hassan, leaving voicemails & emails daily - no replies from any one at Qualizona was received for weeks!!

When Mike finally was able to briefly communicate, he often hung up mid conversation, and NOT ONCE did he, nor anyone from Qualizona show up as promised. He had all types of excuses ready (phone service issues, his phone breaking, his phone got lost, issues with his cell phone carrier resulting in it not working, flooding had taken down his internet connection, his truck had broken etc... the list goes on & on)...

Mike has many other fabricated tales, often ones that contradicted his previous stories - he lied SO much he became unable to recall which tales he had told me.

My insurance company reviewed Qualizona's quote and helped me understand what the scope of work that Qualizona had included in their quote to get my home back to pre-damage condition.

Only through the support of my insurance  company, and working to align work activities actually started, did we noticed Mike / his crew had only PARTIALLY completed one very minor item from the contract we both signed. The value of the work which was only  partially completed was really only worth $150 total, when compared to the contract we signed.

Mike then continued to dodge any work he had promised to complete for months. Eventually I had to just accept that he stole my $1k deductible, and I interviewed a few other contractors, picked the best contractor company from  the ones which I interviewed (they proved to be reputable, honest & quick workers, who completed the full repair in 3.5 days) .

I also found out many more lies that Mike had told as time passed. Some highlights include: Mike stated he was heavily recruited by contractor firms since he was well known & respected in the industry (in reality he really he had recently been fired by his previous employer). He did not have ANY insurance claims adjuster experience at all (as he claimed). He also told me he worked in Italy for years & knew the language, but when I asked him a very basic question in Italian, he had absolutely ZERO Italian language skills.

We began working with the Patterson Homes group in late March 2018 after our home had a fire in December.  Their bid was the most practical with the least "out of pocket" expenses for us.  In fact they came in on budget.  More importantly they agreed to do a "down to the studs" rebuild of a 4 bedroom home with 2000 sq. ft. including an attached workshop on a 5 week timeline which they met.  This timeline included time to get permits, order materials, schedule the inspector's, handling abatement and debris removal, and deal with the insurance company.  Other bids were 5-6 months for the rebuild which would have put a great deal of stress on the family.  We were making the mortgage payments all during this time so the shortened timeline was outstanding.
From the first day they arrived, they were professional, timely, fully staffed, knowledgeable about all the procedures, and code upgrades.  The upgrades could have been extensive since the original home was built in the 1970s.  Within the first two weeks, their designer met with us to choose colors of paint, flooring, counter tops, shelving and more.  She came back in once the flooring was complete to make sure the choice of paint for the walls was appropriate and complimentary.   To our surprise and appreciation, they made upgrades in materials that we didn't request.  The owner, Ryan, told me "it was the right thing to do".  Their attention to detail was a gift.
While on vacation, Ryan called me with an update of where they were in the project.  My passenger was a real estate business woman.  She told Ryan that in her 12 years of business she had never had a contractor call her to give information about her home remodel
As we walked through the house, we found things that needed to be changed.  There was never an argument.  Sometimes there was a discussion, and sometimes we paid for a change.  This company provides a two year warranty on their work.  As we move back into the house, we feel it is a brand new home.
We highly recommend this company for home rebuilds.  You will not go wrong choosing this company to do your new home or a restoration.
