Best in Phoenix AZ

Called this supposed business owner for some handyman assistance. He claimed he spoke five languages so I assumed he was a great communicator. Unfortunately, that couldn't have been further from the truth. He asked me how 6 PM to 7 PM worked for me and I said fine. He then asked where I lived and I said Casas Adobes. OK, great I will spend an hour cleaning up before he comes over. Later, I looked up his location and it said Phoenix. I'm in Tucson so not sure why he said he would come over between 6 PM and 7 PM. I assumed he might have a worker here or that perhaps he was working in Tucson. I texted him twice with Radio silence as his reply. Is he coming? Is he not coming? Based on his previous reviews it's apparent that his lack of professionalism and communication lacks average standards.  Operating a small business encompasses more than just doing the work. The majority of owning a small business is interacting with people. I would say he gets 2 F's, 1 for a communication fail and 1 for being a flake. Buyer beware unless you don't care about common human decency.

I wish I had a better experience to report here. I sincerely hoped to recommend this contractor but am unable.
We were sold on a lot of things, few of which ended up being accurate. One of the most disappointing was being told they use Vets. Based on my experience this ended up being untrue, unless they were veterans of Mexico's military - I didn't ask that. 2 of the 12+ people that walked in and out of my home were Vets. One was the owner's brother. The two Vets were supervisors and worked a combined 5 or 6 hours over a 2 week period. Don't bank on them bringing vets in to do the work. That was essentially a sales tactic and it felt deceitful.
The team they bring in is very nice but speaks little English making communication challenging. We were told to have everything moved and ready by 8am on a Monday but no one showed up until we called, then they came at 10:30. They ripped the floor out in two hours and then said they forgot their tools and had to leave. They didn't come back. I also heard they hadn't been paid from their last job and feel that was part of their hesitation to do more than destroy my floor and leave for the day.
The next day no one showed up again and we had to call for a status update. When the crew finally arrived, they worked for 3 hours and told me they forgot their tools and had to leave. That leaves me to question the work overall ethic here. 16 hours of work time available Monday and Tuesday yet they only utilized about 5.5 hours total. Not the best start and the Super was rarely here to check up on things.
We had to pay for the dumpster and it was hosted in the driveway. However, every day we found someone else's house trash in there - someone else's construction garbage was being dumped into the container we had to pay for under contract. Why was I renting this for his other clients, or why didn't they inform us that is was shared? It was very unusual to me, to have trucks bringing garbage INTO my neighborhood and dumping in my driveway receptacle.
Next, the tile chosen was the faux wood planks. They blotted the planks in 3 places and set them. Once dried we easily ran knives underneath the tiles to show them the enormous gaps in coverage. Only 60% of the tile had thin-set and the potential for cracks over the next 5-10 years is huge and upsetting. We went to two different tile stores and without leading them into an answer asked them how to best lay such tiles. We asked if running silverware underneath the laid, dried tile gaps was in any way an acceptable coverage method and they said NO NO NO. We brought this up to the contractor. He said they were wrong and just trying to sell us something, although that wasn't remotely what transpired. I told him the back of the thin-set bag even says to cover the entire tile and asked him to show me anywhere else, online or in a store, that I could verify his method of 60% coverage. He stumbled and was at a loss without an answer. It appeared he was caught cutting some serious corners. They ripped up one room of tile to re-lay it. The others couldn't be done without us spending a ton of money to correct their approach to partially thin-setting tile. We would have to replace a living room of already laid tile. The fixed the dining room instead and told us they would change their method to complete coverage.
The kitchen counter came in, too. Unfortunately at some point when this installer was bringing it in and out (and in and out) to cut it down, it was scratched. He installed it, left it dusty when he said he was done, and split. As soon as I sprayed it down to clean it I saw the scratch, which looks to be from the teeth of a blade such a a saw. When we presented it, we were told it was already there and they can't do anything about it.
The toilets were also replaced and had hair intwined within. Eww.
The tile grout purchased was the second from the darkest available but when applied and dry, looked light tan and white in some places. It looks nothing like what we ordered and doesn't match the tile.
They tiled up to the bedroom carpet and left that carpet unattached. When we were in the final walkthrough trying to finish up, we reminded him to tuck that under so no one rips off their toes on the lip of the new tiles. We were told, We don't do carpet. That's not how it was explained prior to signing the contract.

I honestly could go on and on like this. It was one thing after another and when we asked for corrective actions we hit a wall. It took long conversations to make them understand that long-term quality counts. They corrected some things and provided minor financial relief for the 5 day job taking 14 days with layers of mistakes. That was to pacify us and it worked. We wanted them OUT before they messed up more. However I feel the public should know about the potential issued involved with this contractor. I did not have a good experience here and have difficulty recommending without serious oversight of the work done.

We are now remodeling a condo, and we started with the upstairs bathroom. Since I'm not good with any type of plumbing or concrete work, I came upon Details through another Yelp search. Turns out Kent is kinda out of the handyman business and does full on remodels now. I was very pleased!
He arrived on time for our estimate and was very straightforward and professional about what he could do for us. We agreed on a start date, and spent a few e-mails adjusting the work contract until we had a firm agreement. He can do whatever you need done, and if there are items you want to do to save money, he's fine with that as well.
He and his crew had the bathroom demo and drawn out in a day, and already had completed the plumbing changes and drywall repairs. He called and walked me through some of the previously unseen issues to see how I wanted to proceed. They then moved on to making a concrete shower pan, installing new tile throughout the shower and floor. We purchased our own bathroom vanity and put it together and he installed it.
Within no time at all, we have a new, spectacular master bathroom. Throughout the whole process, he kept the area clean and more importantly, kept me updated on how everything was working out. If he came across anything that needed clearance, he called me first instead of just going ahead and doing it.
Nothing but positive things to say. Highly recommended.

Following a water leak in our bathroom, our plumber found mold in the wall and recommended Zona Restoration.  Seven or eight different guys from Zona Restoration came to our house (everyone but the EPA) - two cut our walls and carpet and treated the mold - one sealed the area with plastic - one brought out a HEPA filter - one removed the HEPA filter - one tested the air for mold spores - one came for a final inspection (I think one more may have come, but I lost track as there were so many guys).  At first, I thought it was a bit overkill.  But, in the end, I was very pleased with the results, and now feel safe that there is no more mold in my walls and carpet.  While there were a lot of guys, EVERY ONE of these guys was very professional and happy to answer my many questions.  Angel and Miguel did the majority of the mold remediation - they were SUPER!  But, they were ALL very good at each of their jobs.  Later, I spoke with a different plumber who also said that Zona Restoration was the best.  Also, my insurance company was very happy with their final bill.   For mold remediation, I highly recommend them.

I've used Handyman Connection multiple times during the past few years -- for electrical, for drywall repair, for installing a new door and for fixing a leaky sunlight.  Each time, the contractors have been very professional and completed the jobs with quality work and on budget.   I will continue to use their services.

Brian and AZ Remodel pros did a pretty nice job all things considered. I like to be a little more hands on than most, which I know isn't typical when you hand over the keys. Fairly big remodel- step one, remove popcorn from the ceilings and paint the entire house including ceilings... well, they painted the ceilings and didnt remove the popcorn. Brian completely ate that and took fault and it was corrected within a few days. The flooring came out EXCELLENT! Shower came out pretty nice as well... few little things like not raising the shower head while we were in there and a few things slightly off centered but the shower still looks fabulous and I've received multiple compliments on it. There were quite a few mishaps along the way, dings on my fridge, base boards being ripped up by mistake, fan blades damaged,  but every issue was handled promptly and professionally by Brian. The worst part by far was the painter and lack of attention to detail and care. The main thing, is Brian is a professional, trustworthy, a man of his word. Would I use AZ Remodel Pros again? Absolutely. I know next time will be a a lot smoother too, as I will have a better idea of what to expect.

We had our shower done by these guys and it came out beautifully! They were all so friendly and put up with our nosey kid and dog, we would absolutely recommend going with them! Any hiccups that came up Ali addressed immediately and we appreciated that!

Dion and his team installed tile, baseboard, and did a full interior paint.  I didn't know what to expect as it was my first time working with a contractor and getting work done on my home.  I worked with his designer, Monica, who offered great advice for someone who knows very little about design.  By just providing her with my general desire, she came back with various samples to help me decide what I liked most.  The end result was awesome.  It really helped to modernize the whole place.

I was also very happy working with Dion as he was willing to answer all of my dumb questions and address all my concerns since I've never done this process before.  When the project was coming near the end, I was impressed with how much detail Dion looked for in the final workmanship of the project.  He found more nits than I did and made sure his guys got everything on point.  He even got them to address issues that they didn't do and were an artifact of previous work done on the home.

Overall, I would recommend him to friends and I will definitely be working with him again for work on my home.

i hired irving for some built in shelves and a bench in my front living room. he came to my house to quote the project & all was fine (besides the scoff he gave me after he asked what material i wanted him to use, which i replied idk, wood? and he scoffed and said well there are different types-- i'm not in this line of work so how would i know?)

we moved forward w a start date & he drew up some sketches for me. he drew up 2 options, we both agreed one looked better than the other so we moved forward.

start date got pushed back 2 days bc of truck trouble. understandable. contract said start time was 8-9am, he text me to change it to 9-10 & i told him that's fine. they didn't show up until 1045. he had been to my house to do the quote, so he knew how far of a drive it would be.

cant remember if it was the second or third day, but i noticed it wasn't looking like the sketch we agreed on (a 6th shelf or the bottom being filled in & wainscoting across the bottom- we agreed on wainscoting option). so i nicely asked him about it and he said you wanted a shelf i told him no, we agreed on the wainscoting. and i showed him proof of our conversations & he said ok, & went & got more material to finish.

job took 3 days which was fine. everything looked good from what i could tell.

i had my painters come 3 days later to paint. my painter had to sand an area down on the bench bc the bench was hitting the side of the shelf when opened.

you'll see in the photos that from afar it looks amazing, but up close, the finishing touches were anything but that. u can still see the screws, the edges of the entire structure are uneven. and it seems that plywood was used for the underneath parts of the shelves & are now bowing. i sent irving a video 2 weeks later asking if i should be concerned about that and he said The Wood is probably bowed or got bowed after paint. your fine. It's natural wood gets bowed as it gets exposed to chemicals like paint or even the weather

not sure why one would use a material he knows could do this once painted?

like i said, the shelves look great from a distance. but up close, there are so many flaws & it makes me sick to think how much money i spent for a finished job like this.

Writing this review for Alex and John Halliday at Liberty Remodeling.  They recently painted our house.  It was a non-trivially complicated project:  a 2-story 4000 sq ft house with a large attached pergola, stucco repair, stuccoed perimeter wall and a very picky HOA.  Alex and John navigated the whole project very professionally from start to finish.  They had already painted one house in the neighborhood and did a great job there.  I called several of their reference and they got great reviews from the references they gave.  I was impressed with their integrity both in terms of their approach to quality work, how they handled pricing (they are dong several houses within the neighborhood) and how they managed to stay fair with everyone while still accommodating people's specific requests.  They communicate well and are responsive.  They got to the job quickly and finished it quickly, there was no dragging out of the project any more than was required (they actually did a great job of working around the inclement weather that showed up in the middle of the job).  My only knock would be that sometimes the workers didn't quite get all of the instructions passed to the owners, but that actually brings me to the best part.  And i ahve to say here that I have used many contractors before, and on this item they are the best I've ever experienced.  When they are done and ask you to review and provide a correction/punch list, I've never seen a contractor approach it as positively and effectively as they did.  There was never one moment of push back or debate.. they just went through and addressed every single thing on the list, and they did it right on the spot.  They stayed at it until we were satisfied, and although we are not unreasonable, we are not the easiest customer to please.  I will say if you're looking for the lowest price and don't care about anything else, they may not be the best fit for you, and I think they'd probably agree.  However, if you are looking for a high-quality job that is done right, to your satisfaction at a reasonable, fair price, I'd highly recommend them as I found their work to be an excellent value.  (I'm actually having them paint our rental house next)

TIP:  If you check them out you'll find that their current ROC licence is relatively new, do not take that as a negative.  Ask either John or Alex about that and they will happily tell you the background here.  It checked out and it's actually a positive, but too long of a story to include in this review.

We just moved into a new home in Scottsdale and needed repairs to an electric sliding door in our Kitchen (before we moved in someone had accidentally triggered the door to open while it was still locked and ripped the frame off the wall slightly, along with the tile at the baseboard.

Elvis and Maisa were responsive, he came out that day to look at the job, gave us a reasonable estimate and was back first thing the next morning to fix it. He did a fantastic job, restoring it to brand new and addressing an existing issue we found with the door seal itself. He explained the work he was doing and why he was doing it as he went along.

Finally Elvis is super professional, friendly, knowledgeable about the Scottsdale area and on home renovations (we have some work we'll want to get done once we settle in).

We recently used Phoenix Home Remodeling to remodel our early 2000's Kitchen. The process was very easy and we enjoyed getting to know the team that came to do the work! We appreciated the straightforward approach to the overall plan, expectations, timing, and cost. This is a local to Ahwatukee company which was very reassuring that these folks not only work but live in this community with their name on the line. Communication was seamless and the work was exactly what we wanted! We will definitely use them again for future work and highly recommend them. Thanks for a great experience, and fantastic results!

I worked with Eric a couple of months ago to put roofing over my thatched roof patio. I was probably a pain in the ass customer for Eric as I was woefully unprepared and didn't have the material purchased until he showed up to do the job. Eric wasn't rude with me, even though he had every right to be!
I was on my lunch break so I left my credit card number with the guys at Home Depot and trusted Eric to only buy as much as he needed. He bought the material, returned what he didn't need, and had the roof in top-shape within just a few hours.
It's been a couple months and everything is holding together and doesn't look like it's going anywhere.
The quote we got was more than fair and the quality of his work speaks for itself. I've had run ins with shady contractors and handymen throughout the years, and Eric is a standup example of what you need when it comes to someone you can trust with home improvement.

Marcus is the type of professional who takes pride in his work. He framed, tiled, and electrically wired the entire bathroom of our older Phoenix home, no easy task. For someone like me who has little to no experience remodeling- Marcus went through step by step the process and answered any questions we had. He's a great listener and definitely knowledgeable. When we even had a question after the job was complete, he came back immediately. Would trust him again with another project.

I can't say enough good things about Kyle! He put my 3 pieces of furniture together in no time at all! Very reasonably priced! Kyle was courteous and friendly and he loves cats; so I knew he was a great guy! Give him a try and you won't be disappointed!

I reached out to Juan at G&C Construction to get a quote for replacing the floors, countertops, and backsplash in my house. Juan responded quickly and came out the next day to walk through the house, get measurements and discuss the plan and provide me a quote. The next day I received a detailed quote with a breakdown of all the costs. He and his crew were able to start as soon as I needed them to. Once I was ready Juan came out again with the crew to introduce me and once again confirm the plan (flooring direction, countertops, etc). Juan quoted 2 weeks to finish the job and they finished in exactly 2 weeks and I could not be happier with the outcome. I have dealt with many contractors in the past, so I was waiting for some sort of hiccup or delay, but that never happened. Juan has been the most reliable and communicative contractor I have ever worked with. I highly recommend him for any work you need done in your home.

The decorator was super rude to me on the phone. The owner of the company justified her rude behavior because she was stressed.
Terrible professionalism. We are going elsewhere.

We hired Gorilla Builders to build a shop separate from our home. When we first approached them, the owner of the company, Jeff Suer, was the individual we spoke with. We stopped by their office to sign the detailed contract and went over it from beginning to end. The process was put in place and the permits obtained, building was started, and we now have a wonderful functional shop. We were truly impressed with the quality of the build from beginning to end. Each worker was friendly and knew exactly what they were doing and completed the job over and above all expectations. If we had a question during the build all we did was call Jeff who was readily available. Thank you Gorilla Builders, Jeff, Hector, Tom, Bob, all you guys!

I would highly recommend Andrew and his team. They did a great job for me with a bathroom remodel and some other repair work I needed. The upfront estimate was below two others I received, and Andrew also consulted with me on ideas for reducing the cost even further.

When I hired them, I asked if the work could be completed within 3 weeks to fit into my schedule. Andrew was able to move some other projects around and bring in some extra people. They not only met my requested deadline, they finished one week early!

Andrew is very easy to deal with and everyone on his team was courteous and professional while they were here. The work was well done and the bathroom looks great!

If you need any help in your home Doug is your guy! We were selling our home and needed help to get a few things done. Very helpful, honest and the jobs were done perfectly at a very reasonable rate. Highly recommend Husbands 2 Go!
