Best General Contractors in United States

Only do business with this company if you want to throw your money away.  My experience with this company was much like Bruce K's.  I used this company for a kitchen install four years ago.  They insisted on money up front for the cabinets, but the cabinets were all ordered wrong.  The job was scheduled to be done prior to my move in October, but I did not even have a kitchen sink until February.  They had to reorder the doors for the cabinet under the sink three times and they were still never ordered right.  They were supposed to place drawers in my pantry, but that was never done.  The crown molding fell down.  Brett made appointments to follow up and then no-showed.  I had some major surgeries so could not spend my time chasing him down.  The cabinet installer was patronizing and condescending and insisted that my cabinets had to be raised to accommodate my wood floor or my dishwasher wouldn't fit.  They never properly installed the dishwasher so the door ended up breaking.  The countertop is too high so the dishwasher clips don't stay.  I spent a lot of money, but instead of enjoying a nice kitchen I cry every day because it is nothing but a giant mess.

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.

I have used The Scottsdale Handyman for years. When I used to own rental properties all I did was call Eddie & give him the info about the particular problem &  the contact info on a tenant & Eddie would take it from there. The work was done in a timely manner & never had a complaint about his lack of professionalism or his manners. From installing a water heater to hanging pictures. From fixing irrigation to installing toilet & such, Eddie can do it all. I have found that there is no job too small or too large for The Scottsdale Handyman!

Total remodel of two story home (which included removing and laying new tile and hardwood stairs on both floors, added additional lighting throughout house, removed and added new doors throughout house, removed old wall paper and repainted every room (including ceilings), extended patio deck and handled all permitting through the city, installed new ceiling fans, prewired electrical for new TV's and bar area.

Most important, this was a very honest and trustworthy family to work with, which was our primary criteria for selecting them in the beginning, they were outstanding!

Very pleased with the finished results.

We had new AC Installed and the they did a little damage so they had Rodriguez Remodeling contracted out to do the repairs. They were very good at communicating and scheduling. They did a great job. Very clean and courteous. We liked them so much we asked for their card to get a bid on a future remodeling project.

I worked with Q and used him repeatedly on a number of projects. Very dependable and great construction services. Always shows up when promised and finishes on time. Great service and reasonable pricing. Highly recommend!

I needed a new contractor to do some renovations on our new home so we turned to Yelp and and found shepherd contracting. We used Thomas and his team when my new home needed some updating. The communication was above and beyond. We love our new bathrooms and will post updated photos soon!

Eric at E.L. Construction is definitely someone to hire. He was knowledgeable, honest, friendly and cost effective.

I hired him to install three pre-hung exterior doors and Eric was upfront with snags along the way, making sure I had a say in the process.

I want to point out he singlehandedly did all three doors, and he was pleasant to work with as I was finishing up the door handles and locks behind him.

Eric has a construction background and even went over a few quick estimates for other things while he was here, also pointing out good ideas for projects I'll be doing myself.

I'm going to have him come back for a few remaining projects and I will be using him for general handyman things I don't feel comfortable doing.

Thanks, Eric!

Joe came out quickly and made us a priority. He met our budget and timeline. Was a great communicator and has good resources. Would recommend for your next home renovation.

I want to give a HUGE thanks to everyone over at Good Guys Remodeling! I recently worked on a project with them and I found ALL of their staff to be extremely knowledgable. I really can't thank their team enough for their prompt responses & attention to detail throughout the whole process. I would definitely recommend them to anyone in the need of remodeling services.

Despite all of our efforts to double-check and triple-check our measurements, our new refrigerator was, literally, less than 1/8-inch too tall for our current kitchen cabinet enclosure space. Most contractors wouldn't help us because the job was "too small". Ellen jumped in to help us out. The father/son team she engaged was at our house on time (yes, when was the last time a contractor actually showed up on time??).

They jumped right into the problem and were done adjusting the upper cabinet height in no time flat. They did a great job with no complaints or do-overs. In this day 'n age of mediocre inept contractors, this was an incredibly pleasant change from the "norm".

Needless to say, White Builder has my vote and I definitely will be referring my friends and neighbors to them.

While I didn't end up using D&D to conduct my construction work, I am leaving them a review because I was thoroughly impressed with their customer service.  In a world where business rarely respond or follow-up, they did.  That really speaks volumes, and I feel that had I hired them for the job, they would have never missed a scheduled date.

We were very pleased with the work 2nd Ave did on our kitchen and dining room cabinetry.  We brought them in to "fix" what another cabinet company failed to finish.  They were terrific.  Pricing was good.  His crew was terrific and they always left the site spotless when they left.  We were so happy, in fact, we hired them to remodel our daughter's kitchen in her condo in Los Angeles.  Again, they did a super job.

10:30 am We ordered two ceiling fans and a remote on Amazon thinking we would take advantage of their new Amazon Home Services Group. Our experience was horrible outside of Amazon's normal amazing delivery speed. The day of the installation we received a window of between 11am and 2pm. Kyle from I'm Gonna Fix It called and said they were wrapping up with another client and would be there around 3pm. A gentleman named Chris showed up at 4:30pm and started to work on installing our fans. He pulls me aside before he is done and says "We can bill your second fan through Amazon, or if you can pay cash we will do it for 80.00 instead. Amazon charges us a 20% service fee so we can offer a cash discount."
We are so far behind schedule my wife has time to stop and grab the money on the way home from work. Right before he leaves he comes back and says "Hey I don't have a screwdriver to put the batteries in the remote." He then leaves without testing it, so we had no idea if it would work. Needless to say, the remote won't sync with the system he installed so I call them up and ask them to fix it or remove the unit so we can send it back.
Chris comes out again, this time, he doesn't have a ladder, even though he needed one the first time, so we let him use ours. (What kind of a service comes without a screwdriver or a ladder?), tests the unit, then tells me "Because the unit is defective we have to bill you 65.00 for the hour I was here, but not to worry Amazon will most likely cover the error because the unit was defective." So now they want Amazon to pay us back for their mistake.
His office calls to bill us and I ask them "Why are we paying you to remove something that you didn't test on installation. If the tech actually tested the unit and didn't just leave, then we wouldn't be having a second service call." She says, "Ok I'll call the owner and ask what we can do."
Less than five minutes later Chris shows back up at my house asking me, "What's the problem, and that it was ok to bill us because we let him leave without testing it." It's not only extremely unprofessional to send a service tech back to your front door (not to mention the same one that didn't test the unit) to try and argue on behalf of the company, it borders on intimidation. I wouldn't agree that it was our fault that he didn't test the product he installed and I asked him to leave. The then promptly charged us the 65.00 for the hour.  I will never be using Amazon's Home Services again; I'll stick with hiring my Rosie on the House certified contractors.

2:00pm I added this in response to the owners comment.

I can tell you for us the service was nothing like 100% satisfied. It doesn't do me any good to yell at a technician coming to my house for being 2.5 hours late, it does let me know that maybe the company I am working with isn't 100% reliable. It doesn't do me any good when I tell the tech that I have a screwdriver available to put that batteries in, and he says it's fine and goes home. It wouldn't have done me any good this morning to send the man away because he showed up without a ladder when I had one he could use. It definitely didn't do any good to ask your company to make the service call right, because then I had a tech show back up at my house to blame me for his inability to put in batteries, and properly test something he installed.

The good news is there are companies out there that go above and beyond to make things right. Amazon refunded us your service fee of 65.00 and for the remote within the hour when we emailed them. Personally, I was shocked that they would cover a fee, that should have never been charged. It wasn't Amazon's fault we picked the wrong company off of the list to have come to our home. None of that mattered to Amazon, they made it right, and did it quickly, securing our continued business with them for a very long time.

As for offering to put in the new remote for free well I think you can see how we might not think of that as a plus. The last one cost us part of the initial 80.00 (fan installation), and an additional 65.00 (due to reasons listed above).

I appreciate the quick response to my review but fixing the issue when I called and spoke to your company would have been better. Instead, I talked to someone on the phone that said she would talk with the owner, had a technician show back up at my house to argue the point (which is not great service or professional), and then got a call three minutes later to pay because you felt it was due regardless.

Again I can't say enough good things about Amazon for erasing most of what turned out to be a horrible experience.

2:37pm Finally made it back in my bedroom tried to turn on the fan to take a nap and it doesn't even turn on manually now.

2:55 After a little investigation it seems the tech wired the fan to a different wall switch for the light and the fan, which he didn't do before. We are hiring another company to check the work.

Doug and Bill did an amazing job repairing my balcony. There was more water damage and rot than we even anticipated once the rails were lifted. They came up with the plan how to efficiently and thoroughly resolve the problem. There were no cutting corners, I loved that the job was done right, the materials used were great quality and it was all completed in a little over a day. I am so grateful for their help!

Asked for an estimate for a guest bathroom. They were kind and efficient when they came over answered all our questions andsaid they would send us an estimate by the end of the week. Two weeks later I reached out, they said they were behind on their estimates. Never heard from them again. It was a shame we loved their ideas, their dynamic and their suggestions.
