Best General Contractors in United States
I scheduled a meeting with Shannon last week for a 7:30am appointment that he never showed up to. This was unfortunate because my husband had to rearrange his work schedule and waited around for an hour for nothing. Shannon was apologetic for forgetting the appointment and I decided to give him another shot for the following week at 7:30am. He shows up at 7:50am without letting us know he was going to be late at all and provides us with a quote that is 2.5x as expensive as our most expensive quote thus far (we have 3 other quotes). I would have at least expected his timing and customer service would have been perfect with the highly inflated rates.
Only updating my review because it really bothers me when people lie. I'm sure this company does great work and Shannon was friendly but my reviews are always accurate. Below is an image of our conversation with Shannon's to the minute appointment time.

I just can't say enough good things about Bobby Campbell and his contracting company, Campbell Contracting. He and his crew really did an outstanding job of resurfacing my pool and putting in a new cool deck. I just moved into an older property that had a large diving pool that was shot. I literally could not dip my toe in the pool until it was resurfaced. I chose a pool contractor who had a cutting edge 3-D program that showed my pool exactly how I wanted it and sold me on it. (All show and no go!). After hiring him on, he subbed the job out to Bobby and told him I needed to get it done before the friends and family Open House I was planning at my new place. Well, my hired on Pool Contractor disappeared (his review to follow!), but Bobby got the job done....at least the part he was hired to do. He had 5 guys here round the clock and the finished product is absolutely gorgeous. I am so pleased and would refer Bobby in a heart beat. I felt bad after the job was done, because the General Contractor I hired gave him a bogus check!!! I absolutely would recommend Bobby and Campbell Contracting to anyone looking for any kind of remodeling job. They are first class and get the job done!!!

I'm in the midst of acquiring multiple estimates to remodel our master bathroom. So far, FHR Construction stood out the most. Oron, the owner, was very energetic and came up with a few interesting remodeling suggestions. He explained the construction process thoroughly and a project manager will be assigned to oversee the project. Their graphics designer, Jeremy, then put together suggested bathroom designs into multiple 3D images. That helps a lot in identifying changes needed and envisioning the overall bathroom layout, prior to start of construction.
Also, FHR construction has a huge selection of stone and tile which is more reasonably priced than other nearby showrooms. their attention to detail, quality of products and services exceeded my expectations.

I absolutely cannot recommend Gurr Brothers. We had water damage from a broken pipe in-between a wall shared by our Laundry Room, Master Bathroom and Walk-In Closet. Gurr Brothers was referred to us by the remediation company as one of their partners. To be respectful, I'll leave the names out - The project superintendent made his first visit and tentatively quoted us 2-3 weeks for all 3 rooms to be back to 100%. 3 months and 1 week later the reconstruction/remodel is complete.
Every step of reconstruction was laden with communication problems and poor measurements. Some examples: The tile floor was measured wrong, and we had to add additional time to completing the floor. The floor installers were also not instructed to complete the baseboard installation. Once another team was scheduled for the baseboards, they were given instructions to complete 1 of the 3 rooms, requiring a 3rd team to be scheduled.
The painter wasn't told that we decided to change colors, and had already picked it out - cut a sizable hole in the drywall to color match the old color. This hole required an additional visit to patch.
The drywall repair in the laundry room decided not to move pipes, missing a 6inch by 2inch section of the wall with both drywall and paint. This required another visit to remedy.
Initially we decided to rebuild our existing vanity. 3 weeks into what we thought was a vanity being built, we were told that they decided to replace it with a new vanity. They mis-matched the color, making the mirror and sink red and brown respectively. They also mis-measured, making our granite countertop and wide sink not fit the new cabinet they JUST installed. After they removed the 'new' vanity they decided again to rebuild the old one, with the superintendent forgetting to deliver the drawers and drawer slides to the cabinet builder.
The vanity was measured wrong. The floorboards were measured wrong. Paint was subpar. Drywall was half-assed. Every step of this process had some type of scheduling, communication or measuring issue that I would not expect a professional to make, let alone repeatedly. And finally (but not lastly, unfortunately) every call I made to the project superintendent was met with a full voicemail box, but NEVER a return call.

Alex and his team did an impeccable job on our full marble bathroom remodel & wood floors!
I am a very picky person with attention to small details. When I was looking for a bathroom/flooring contractor I vetted rigorously. It's not easy to just allow anyone into your home. I'm sure many others feel the same way, so as you can imagine I only wanted the most skilled & the most trustworthy people to work on my house. Thankfully, I found Alex by doing a Yelp search in my area. I vetted several contractors before finding Alex. All the others just didn't hit the mark for meFrom the very start Alex was very easy to talk to, competent, very well experienced in his line of work & very professional. We did a full bathroom remodel - all gorgeous marble symmetrical from floor to ceiling. We wanted no grout lines & only symmetrical cuts. Alex had 2 guys do the entire bathroom remodel which took several days. I have to say they were truly the most respectful guys. Every morning they would kindly greet us, let us know what they're getting done that day. They were quick to yield & allow me my space anytime I wanted to inspect their work. They laid out plastic throughout our home to walk on. They were clean, tidy & organized. Very respectful of our property. They were not only respectful people, but also very polite which is refreshing to see in the construction industry. More importantly, we were blown away by their precise skill when it came to the perfect marble cuts & leveling of the tile. If I could use one word to describe their work; it's precision. They didn't miss a single detail. Not a single corner, not a single piece. Marble is not an easy stone to work with. Marble is precious & delicate. It requires true craftsmanship done with taste. Alex and his guys were a true testament to that authentic craftsmanship that so many other contractors simply don't understand or care for. If you are considering a bathroom remodel & are like me- someone who wants the best & values trust- you must go to Alex because he & his team will execute that job gracefully.
We also hired them to install all new floors & baseboards. Most people would never know they're laminate because they look & feel like high-end solid floating hardwood. Every piece was perfectly placed & snapped on. They also added a soft material underneath so that the floors are easier on your feet and joints.
All the work they did was done skillfully & timely.
If you've come this far in your vetting process & research looking for a qualified contractor to hire then you need to call Alex. Talk to him about what you have in mind, the ideas you have & show him photos of what you're thinking. He is very competent, has good taste, has an eye for aesthetics, is very easy to talk to, & will also bounce ideas if you need some pointers. He's also very up to date with trends and styles if you're wanting to be pointed in that direction. Any taste or idea, they will be able to help.
We will definitely be using Alex & his team again & will be recommending them to friends, family & neighbors.
Thank you for making our dream bathroom a reality!

As soon as I met Bobby I knew I wanted to hire him. He was professional, knowledgeable, and carefully reviewed and discussed the details of my project. I had just purchased a house and needed work done prior to moving in, so my timeline was tight, 2 - 3 weeks. I had new flooring put in, new interior paint, recessed lighting, new light fixtures and hardware installed. Bobby got it done quickly and efficiently and maintained excellent communication throughout the process. I was amazed at how hands off the process was. Bobby ordered the materials I had selected, and also helped me pick out some other items. He has great taste and a good eye for what will work best. Don't let the small number of reviews stop you from working with Atelier507. I was hesitant at first because when we started the process they were new to Yelp and did not have any reviews. Now I am so impressed with Bobby and his team I would recommend him to everyone and use him again on future projects.

The tile and plumbing job for a remodeled bathroom was completed with precise attention to detail. The prep, and installation of both floor and wall tile were professionally completed. The project remodel looks like the way it should be, Brand New. Wonderful service, and came to work in a timely manner as promised.

PLEASE NOTE: Although my primary home is in the Tacoma area, this posting is about our second home in Surprise, AZ.
I wanted to do an widening of my backyard sliding glass door from 6 foot to 9 foot wide. I am new to the area, so didn't know a guy, but stumbled across Joe and Efficient Home Pro. Joe came by and looked at the project and after talking to the window manufacturer, gave me a firm, fixed price for the project. Now this involved removal of the old slider (with unknown issues about how it was installed), a new laminate header beam, new slider, and fix the outside stucco and inside drywall like it was original. A complex project for sure.
I had the pleasure of working from home (thank you COVID-19) while Joe and team did the project. I am pretty handy with home projects, so watched with interest as the team did their work. I have to say that I have never been so impressed! There were several points where key decisions had to be made and each were discussed, rationalized, and then acted upon. To tell a long story shorter, they executed this transformation flawlessly!
But here is the best part. Not only did they do the hard stuff with precision, but they also did the small stuff perfectly. Every final opening was sealed with insulating foam, every piece of stucco was replaced and textured like it was new, and on the inside, it was impossible to tell that any work had been done (outside of paint). And even better, the work space was cleaner than when they arrived.
Over the course of the project, I got the chance to talk to Joe about all his company can do, and I can say with confidence, that I now have a Have a Guy. And for far more than just windows. Next step: Replace the AC unit.

They did an absolutely beautiful, top quality job on our backyard. The design is unique, well thought out and functional. The aesthetic of our yard is modern, yet comfortable. They are motivated to keep their designs unique and interesting. Your yard will stand out while remaining warm for entertaining and family and guest friendly. They were responsive, communicative and very professional. They do not cut corners and take pride in their finished product. They have remained available even after the job was complete for any questions. If you want knowledgeable and top quality, these are your guys!

Chad is amazing! I don't even remember how we found him initially because it's been so long that we've been using him. He's done several projects around our house and is one of the only contractors I trust to do the job right. There have also been times I couldn't be at home and there is no issue with trusting him alone in the house. We've worked with several contractors before we met Chad and there is almost always something that they don't do quite right or some way they've cut corners. That never happens with Chad. He is meticulous and does exactly the job you've hired him for. We've even started using him for projects at both of our businesses because he's so awesome. We can't recommend him enough!

Just needed what I thought was a simple replacement but apparently it couldn't be done in the budget I entered on my quote request. Instead of asking for more details about exactly what was needed, was asked if my budget was flexible because they didn't want to waste time. Seems like I wasn't worth getting a little more info from. Luckily I found another company that asked more questions and provided more options instead of just asking me to be flexible with my budget.

I was referred by a friend after a bad storm had revealed a leak in our new home. With another monster storm about to hit us, I reached for a consultation and Geremy drove an hour and a half out of his way on his own time to look at what was going on. Gave me a quick and honest assessment, when asked how much, he was beyond reasonable, and offered to handle the job on the spot, so the next storm wouldn't damage my house! You will regret using this company! My roof guarantees it!

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.

We needed a partial bath remodel and went to the home show looking for help. We found three companies and seriously compared them. Colton came to our home to assess the job and prepare a quote. He wrote up a quote that was higher than the others, but we decided to go with them because the product they offered through their show room was nicer in quality than the others.
This company does not employ in-house construction workers. They sub-contract all the work. That explains the higher cost. However, we were very happy with the work. Colton was our salesman, Jaram coordinated the construction workers. He gave us a timetable that worked for us and we were happy with the way the timing worked out.
We needed the garden bathtub removed, a glass brick window reduced in size by half and a walk-in shower built to replace the tub.
The contractors who came to our home were very professional and efficient. We were most impressed with Johnny, who did the tile work. There were 2 mistakes: first, in how the tile was drilled for the plumbing; second it became apparent that the dye in the tiles was not consistent within the box of tile. This showed up after the light in the room changed and tile was set. There were 5 tiles that didn't match the others. Johnny came right out and fixed the problem. Luckily we had extra tiles for him to work with and he was able to save us from having to buy another box of tile.
When you are not well-versed with the construction business in our area, it is virtually impossible to find people to contract to do work. When the job involved requires different specialties such as construction, plumbing, and tiling it is risky for the homeowner to hire one contractor to do all the jobs. Without word-of-mouth recommendations, I became overwhelmed with my search. It was expensive to hire Rise Above for our job, but we are happy with the results and I am thankful they supplied us with high quality workmen who did a great job!

I remodeled my master bathroom and chose Peak One Builders & Restoration as the General Contractor. They are members of my dream team. I like everything about Peak One - I like their story, their people, and their commitment to quality. The owner, Mike Christensen, was very detailed in his bid. He had more answers than I had questions! The Project Manager, Lee Ellis, could not have been better. Lee provided a project schedule and plenty of updates throughout the project. He scheduled meetings at my convenience and was always on time. I can't say enough about the quality of the work, the attention to detail, and their professionalism and trustworthiness.
I think the true test is how I feel about Peak One now that the project is done. The remodeled bathroom is beautiful! They have followed up on every punch-list item. I am very happy with the project, I have recommended them to friends, and they are at the top of my list for the next project.

We needed to have two of our bathrooms remodeled; our master bathroom and family/guest bathroom. We had three companies come to our home to give us estimates and ideas. Each of the first two sent one person for the estimate. I was disappointed after meeting with them. Basically, all I received was an estimate price of what it would cost to complete and absolutely no design concepts or architectural ideas. I then contacted Retro-Pro and made an appointment with Eric and Angela. They arrived on time and spent approximately one hour going over the project. Eric offered architectural/building ideas while Angela gave design details. I was impressed. They offered information that I had not previously considered or knew. They explained that all the workers that would be at our home are their employees and that nothing is subcontracted. They gave me an exact price on what our project would cost and we made another appointment to meet at their design studio to go over tile and fixture options. They began work on November 14th and the final walk through was on December 22nd, 2016. They assigned a Project Manager, Omar, and he was in contact with us daily as to the progress of the project. He answered all our questions during the construction and addressed any issues or concerns that we had. The construction crews respected our home by using plenty of plastic sheeting and heavy duty paper to protect our belongings and our floors. Angela and Steve, Project Supervisor, would stop by every few days to monitor how the project was progressing. We now have two beautiful bathrooms that we will enjoy for years to come. Angela's design talents shine every time we enter one of our bathrooms. We are so grateful that the project was handled start-to-finish with such professionalism and with the utmost respect for our home. The craftsmanship is second to none. I would not hesitate to hire Retro-Pro again or to recommend them to anyone who is looking for a low-stress, highly-professional company to create a beautiful kitchen or bath environment in their home.
Happily,

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!
