Best in Phoenix AZ

Amazing customer service! I was having trouble installing a ceiling fan on my own, and I called them up to have them come out for service. Instead the man I spoke with recognized that I was very close to finishing and just talked me through the rest of the install over the phone. I was very surprised. This type of service is hard to find and very appreciated. Thank you so much for your excellent customer service. I will definitely use them again on any future home renovations.

In 2012 I bought a house on a short sale that had an old in-ground pool.  When I say old, I'm talking about 30 years or so.  On top of that, the previous owners didn't take the best care of it.  So basically I had a very cosmetically outdated pool with plaster that was eroding away and very rough.

I lived with it for a while, and in December of 2015, I decided it was time to fix it up and add some new features.  Although this was a residential renovation/remodel, it was a big job.  I was doing a resurface along with new waterline tile and cap tile, which is pretty normal.  I was also going to do away with the never-functioning-properly in-floor cleaning system and having four standard returns plumbed in.  In addition, I wanted to add a water feature and a baja shelf.

I researched online a bit, did the best I could at figuring what the cost should be based on work others had done,  and narrowed it down to four builders.  I contacted them and set up appointments to meet with each of them to get estimates.  The first builder never bothered to show up for the appointment, and didn't bother to call either.  When I called, they were pretty dismissive about it, so I decided if I can't get them out when they're trying to make a sale, I had doubts they'd be any good to work with once they had my money.

Next up was Blue Dot Pools.  James, the owner, was the person who came out to do the estimate.  I don't know what it was...it's not something I could put my finger on, but he was instantly likable.  There was no sales pitch,  no memorized spiel to go through.  He simply introduced himself and told me about himself and his company.  Afterward, he went around and took his measurements and sat with me to go over what I wanted.  One thing I remember is a sentence he said to me during our first meeting, This is your pool.  He would say that any time I would ask about having something done.  Don't worry about what I think or what I want...this is your pool.  Considering how many builders out there are more concerned about doing things their way and pushing products/services on you that they want to sell, this was really refreshing.

The next day James emailed me an itemized estimate along with a hand-drawn design for the wall/water feature we talked about (he doesn't do the fancy 3D computer design stuff).  The pricing came back right around what I expected (actually, a little lower), so there were no issues there.

At this point I did something I wouldn't really recommend - I called and cancelled my other appointments.  I figured I was just offered a good price by a builder I was very comfortable with, so I rolled the dice with James and Blue Dot Pools.  Boy, am I glad I did.

Blue Dot Pools isn't one of the huge companies, and he uses sub-contractors as opposed to having an in-house crew for all of the different facets of the job.  Let me also tell you that every single sub-contractor, actually every single person, that came out to work on this project was friendly, courteous, and respectful of my property.  This is important because this wasn't a new build, it was a remodel of an existing pool in a yard that already had desert landscaping.  I'll also tell you that the work completed from every crew that came out, from chip-out to tile, to plumbing/electrical, and finish application was absolutely outstanding.  Nothing needed to be fixed or re-done throughout this whole process.

James was there every step of the way, checking to make sure people showed up on time and then inspecting work after it was completed.  He was also in constant communication with me, via text, phone, and email to answer any questions I had.  This is the owner, mind you.  I really can't say enough about Blue Dot Pools and James' customer service.  Simply second-to-none.
James was very patient with me as I waffled on some of my decisions, and never once got frustrated with me, even when I did some upgrades at the last-minute.  He just kept saying, This is your pool.

When all was said and done, my old outdated pool had been turned into a gorgeous little oasis.  This is the kind of pool you expect to see at a nice hotel, only smaller.  This has just been a great experience from start to finish.

One final thing I'd like to add...James never really treated this like another job.  He was actually enthusiastic about it and was almost as excited as I was to see the finished product.  He took pictures constantly and was always going on about how nice this was going to be when it was done.  He was right.  It exceeded my expectations, as did he.  This is a man who really enjoys and takes pride in what he does.  He should be proud of himself and his company.  I give James and Blue Dot Pools my highest recommendation if you are in the market for a new pool, remodel, renovation, or pool service.  Absolutely second-to-none.

We couldn't be happier with out master bathroom! We had an old outdated countertop too low for us, as well as unflattering linoleum flooring in a house we had just bought. We contacted M2 enterprises in hopes of an affordable renovation. Mark was able to put down new flooring, add a brand new vanity, adjust the baseboards, and adjust the plumbing to make our new bathroom look amazing. We really appreciated that he did not cut any corners and that he was personable and affordable as well. Any home project we plan on doing in the future we plan on using M2 Enterprise.

They removed a damaged tile band that goes across a large room in our house, and replaced it with a more durable and beautiful one. Top notch job and reasonable price. Highly recommend!

McLintock has been our go-to general contractor for more than a dozen years. Brent and his crew have; remodeled a bathroom, put in new doors, remodeled our back yard (demolished and brought it down to the dirt and then rebuilt it.) Added a huge patio with fireplace... I could go on and on.  I wouldn't dream of calling any other contractor for a job, big or small, at my home. McLintock Builders are The Best!

Mike came out and replaced a motor in our fountain and cleaned it. He did a fabulous job! He is very professional, friendly, knowledgeable and his price was lower than other company I've used. I will never use anyone else but Advance Fountains for any issue related to my fountain!

Bryce at HBO Construction was great! He was responsive, on time, and did great work on our bathroom shower.

After several estimates, we knew Bryce was the guy for the job. He was fair and knowledgeable without giving us a crazy dollar amount to do the job.

10/10 will be recommending him to our friends and family!

Tatum and Ray were highly recommended. I got several bids and their's was comprehensive and fairly priced. This was a unique project where we retained the flooring, fixtures and some of the walls. But the plumbing, sinks, counters, tile, some cabinets, mirrors, shower wall and glass are all new. There were many challenges since this was not a rip and replace. During the five week project, Tatum kept everything moving, came up with creative solutions, and kept his commitment to deliver the bathroom we wanted. I highly recommend Ouellette General Contracting.

Screens Unlimited was a great company to work with! Everyone was very friendly and the quality is amazing. My house has been transformed with the sun shades installed, helping keep out this hot AZ heat and they look fabulous! The team was very respectful and answered all my questions. I highly recommend Screens Unlimited!

All I can say is that the business owner must have been raised by wolves. He entered my home without first asking me, while his people were here. He walked around my home without letting me know. I had a check on my table, under my things, which he took without asking first. Lastly, and very upsetting, my husband and I are older. We both had on masks. He did not and never did wear a mask, while walking around my home uninvited.
Regardless of the work, he was so unprofessional that I would not call him again; nor refer him.

We've used Affordable Home Improvements twice for a patio & garage light installation and then for flooring to be replaced from termite damage.  Both times communication & service were excellent with extremely reasonable pricing.

Will continue to use them in the future for all our home improvements!

After working with Guthrie I can see why they have been in business for so long. They have assembled the greatest team of architects, general contractors and subcontractors to design and build. They consistently build beautiful yet functional medical offices. Their communication and follow through are great and the attention to the detail sets them apart. I can't recommend them enough.

Ken Armstrong of Armstrong Innovations:  FRAUD ALERT for custom kitchen and bathroom remodel.  The old common contractor practice of fraud is alive and well, and I found it in Anthem, AZ.  He's an underskilled laborer who took our money and hired another equally unskilled subcontractor, and together, they ruined all 3 of our expensive countertops.  Ken's highly distracted and disorganized, and has enormous difficulty staying on any task, so he didn't, with us.  He instead started something else, and never quite finished anything he started, but he had no problem asking for lots more money for his shoddy workmanship while overcharging by thousands.  He kept and hid the receipts to himself, despite more than one request for them, leading to suspicion about his questionable business practices, since he already lied to us about his availability and about showing up for work, and he had covered the damaged wood he installed in our home with blue tape over it.  He called this custom design.   We would soon discover that we had legitimate reason to confirm our suspicion was true, and to fire him, to prevent further financial loss. It's no big deal not to show up for work, he said, with a childish, unprofessional excuse, representing the best of what I saw of his business acumen.  He's excessively arrogant about what he does badly, and he did it all badly.   From the brown water discharge from my new plumbing he installed, to the white tile he poorly grouted and failed to correct, to the stone flooring he discolored with his dirty sealant, to the damaged and scarred wood he installed, to the pocket door he hung wrong per installation instructions he didn't read, to the countertop fiasco with no one using published installation instructions, resulting in uneven and unlevel and unusable surfaces, and to all other numerous issues he created for himself, he blamed his blatant installation errors on everything else BUT himself, offering faulty logic for his costly shortcomings, never admitting he grossly misrepresented his capabilities, and himself as a reputable businessman. He walked off our job during his subcontractor's countertop installation, so he could bid on another project.  I watched as no level and no measuring tape was used, resulting in a sloppy countertop I can't use because of gross height and leveling deficiencies.  That's just crazy, he said, when I inquired about his need to measure the range for its custom height requirements in preparation for the countertop installation.  Putting countertops on before putting cabinet doors on was one of his very bad judgments.  Trust me, he said about his countertop subcontractor, whose last name and business card he withheld from us when asked, so that we could follow up with our Silestone 15 year warranty that we will never see that he failed to produce for us after we paid for the material and the installation.  While he was hired to work with us, he was evasive and unavailable.  He offered us whatever we asked for in our custom design, then told us he had lots of experience with it, then left us completely inconvenienced with poor attendance, poor quality work, and failing to honor his word of being available to us for his assistance with our custom project.  He offered to spend some of his contracted time picking up and delivering our tub, toilets, and larger purchases for us, but, he left us to do it for ourselves.  He said that he would help us with design ideas and specific material selections for our custom design, but didn't, then rudely blamed us for delaying him, leaving us hanging and causing us further delays, such that we had to ask for the face to face meeting with him in writing, that he refused.  He refused to guarantee his work, and then insulted us before asking us for 4500 more dollars the next day.  He made excuses for the 3940.00 problem he created with the countertops, then walked away from the project.  Completely abandoned with no contact for over two weeks, he left us with poor workmanship and leaky plumbing and no cabinet doors.  He cashed our 5000 dollar check without depositing any of it.  When is Ken coming back from vacation? asked one of his subcontractors, during the time period he was given to fix the identified errors in our home, while time ticked away towards his given deadline.   His lack of integrity and ability to follow through with his approaching deadlines describe his style.  You deserve to know in advance that he doesn't make his own cabinet doors, but he never told us that until just before he abandoned the project, when we confronted him about his poor quality work and asked for that face to face meeting that he refused.  This dog is not worth the filing fee to take to court, but I'd love to show a jury the pictures and video of what he thinks is good work. Underskilled, unethical, and blatantly dishonest is what we experienced. Countertop subcontractor works for business whose license is suspended by ROC.

Scott gave us a good price for the additional driveway, stone work and short retaining wall. The work turned out great would recommend him to others. Sometimes he gets overbooked, cut him some slack. He has a good team working for him.

Great to work with!  They were able to come the same day when I discovered a new range wouldn't fit in my kitchen when it was delivered.  And it ended up like a custom fit. Perfect.  These guys are awesome!

If I could give a zero rating I would. I hired red ram construction too Install 700 ft.² of tile. After nine days they still had not completed the job, they Laid the tile uneven, left grout all over the floor, and cabinets. We now have to remove the tile and start over. In addition they never cleaned up after themselves.  I would not hire this contractor under any circumstances whatsoever.
