Best Detached Garage Construction in Phoenix AZ

My pregnant wife scheduled Bob to come over to have a look at my house so I could go over all of the things we wanted to do (move some walls and add an office and a closet and update the kitchen etc). Bob arrived and greeted me with a long story about how another customer's pug bit him on the genitals before we even said hi to each other.

I moved past it and started walking him through our house trying to show him the things I wanted to do. He apparently doesn't have very good spacial awareness because as I was explaining the moving of walls and doors, he never fully grasped the concepts - he was unable to visualize what I was talking about.

Three other contractors at this point had gone through the same tour with me and took measurements and made drawings and took notes. Bob did none of that. As we were going through the kitchen, he stopped me and asked if I had an interior designer who was going to draw up plans. I told him that my wife set up our meeting and that I thought I was just going to go over the basics of what we wanted and explained that a couple other places had taken measurements and whatnot as we went along and presented their plans/designs based on my explanation along with an estimate.

He started getting aggressive really quickly - which baffled the shit out of me - and started talking to me about how he could measure [my kitchen counter] and be 2 inches different from the other guy and come out with a bid that was $10,000 more. I mean, I am pretty sure that all tape measures are based on the same standard units, so... otherwise they wouldn't be used to measure things, right? I didn't say that, but it was a really weird thing to say to me.

At this point, I said I totally didn't expect any sort of set-in-stone budget or drawings or anything - I did start reiterating that I just thought he was going to come over to get an idea of what I wanted and we would go from there, but he interrupted me to say if this is how we're starting off, then it's best I just leave or something to that effect, and starts stomping towards my front door. I say what? why? I didn't do anything to you... why are you...? And he slams my front door behind him and then slams my front gate and then slams his car door and then revs his thirsty truck engine and then turns around in front of my house and then spins his tires to drive away... Minutes later, he cancels the calendar invite like a psycho.

I'm REALLY glad he left. Better he left now than in the middle of a job. He's SUPER unstable. His giant truck is covered in Americana and flags and eagles and stuff from what I could tell - maybe he could tell I'm an anti-war socialist from the cut of my sweatpants. I can be difficult to work with at times, but I know when I'm being difficult and when I'm being super nice and easy going - if this was my fault, I would admit it. I did nothing that I can think of to set him off. Best I can figure is he saw a Bernie Sanders sticker on my car or doesn't like cats or - most likely - he realized he was completely in over his head with our project.

Maybe all he can do is patch some drywall or manage someone while they lay tile. It's just a bizarre and totally unprofessional way to decline a job. I never swore at him. I never said anything sarcastic or rude. I didn't talk down to him... I assumed he knew more about what he did than I did and admitted that my wife set it up and I was just doing what I thought I was supposed to do (which was to say things like I'd like to move this door over here and get rid of this wall and open up this room to be an office - hoping for some guidance.

This part is supposed to be sort of fun. Planning stuff out. It gets harder and more tedious and you get more impatient as the project goes along. I support veterans and local businesses, but this guy scared me, and if I knew it was going to go this way at all, I wouldn't have told him where I live or had him over to my house. I would advise you to do the same unless you just need to patch a wall or something simple maybe - just don't come to him with a larger project that involves any sort of vision or dialogue. I'm just thankful he didn't kick my animals on his way out. Hopefully he didn't vandalize my car - gonna have to review the security footage.

(Edit - I don't think he did anything to my car, but I got him on my security cam storming off and slamming my gate and also talking about getting bitten by a dog before we even say hi.)

He did a decent job. Nothing stellar. He was more than an hour late every day. He gave me a quote for the work then did half the job and then changed the price on me to more than double the original quote and hand cuffed me into having to have him finish. Just all around pathetically embarrassing professionalism.

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.

We just wrapped up project with Canterra Construction in our new build. They guided us throughout the process as we transformed our plain, asymmetrical, and inverted TV wall to the focal point of our home. Their entire team is great and we felt supported by all of them over the course of the month-long process. We can't wait to tackle other projects in our home with Canterra Construction!

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!

Keith and his crew were awesome from start to finish. I worked with Keith to complete a kitchen and master shower renovation. The tile work by Carlos is simply the BEST I've seen. The guy measures twice and cuts once and it all fits perfect. Paul the plumber knows his job inside and out!! The electricians used were great as well, despite the spray foam insulation they were able to put in new outlets and move others.

Keith is a hands on GC that goes above and beyond to make you happy as a customer. His easy professional style  is beyond his years in the industry.

If you're looking for a contractor give Keith a call!!

Look no further, you have found the best of the best! Slade and his team are a dream to work with for a homeowner. He helped my family manage a 3,000sq ft total remodel - 3 bathrooms, kitchen, floor plan changes, etc. He's not only intelligent, responsive, reliable, professional with high integrity, he's also just a total blast to work with.

He helped us navigate and problem solve many challenges as they came up during the renovation process. He keeps a clean job site and has total respect for your home. His crew is respectful and always on time. They clean up the job site at the end of each day and are a joy to be around.

We enjoyed our experience so much with Slade and his team, we took the leap of faith to do another renovation with he and his team. That's saying a lot as renovations are not fun!

I would recommended him to my friends and family 365 days a year! Go for it! You won't be sorry.

Attaching some before and after photos.

As far as the job that was done by the workers it was fantastic. The workers were on time, conscientious, polite, communicated what they were going to do each day. They did a super job, and as another customer stated, they protected all areas around their work, countertops, newly painted walls, floors, etc. All areas needing cleanup were done upon completion of their work for each day. They worked in a timely manner without cutting corners.  We had no problem with the work that was done.  However, when it came to dealing with management or office personnel, there was poor communication, calls were not returned in a timely manner, even though we were told we would receive a call back on a certain day. Scheduled times were changed with notice of only one day, that work was to begin the following day. Workers arrived when supervisor said they would, promptly and on time each subsequent day. However, no final walk-through was done by a supervisor at the final completion of the work. We were told by a supervisor on Friday that the work would be completed on Monday morning. No one showed up on Monday morning, so we made a call to find out where they were. Told that there was another project that needed completing. Then were told the worker would be here at 2 pm. The worker showed up promptly and completed the install of the dimmer and chip LED lights. The supervisor was to come by and do a walk-through later that afternoon.  We received no time of arrival, and never received a call telling us that no one would be here to walk through so we were left waiting as we had every day the week prior to see when we were going to be scheduled for our job. Again, no complaints regarding the workers, or their work.  It was top-notch and superior, but it was more than frustrating and not professional to deal with the office staff telling us one thing, and promising return calls from the primary supervisor and then never hearing anything back.  A younger supervisor had dropped in on Friday, and he was professional and friendly and checked on the work thus far. However, the primary supervisor responsible for our job did a poor job. His part of the communication process was poor and not professional in our view.

A big thanks to Mike Christensen and his team at Peak One Builders!  We were having an issue with our architect so we researched four custom home builders to take over our project.  Peak One was the hands down winner and we are are so glad we picked them.  Mike took our plans, collaborated with us to fix them, and then built us a great house that we are very proud of!

Mike's military background was a critical factor in our choice and he came through with flying colors.  His attention to detail was amazing.  He exhibited a high level of integrity, ie, he always followed through on what he said.  His professionalism and structural engineering background gave us comfort that we have a well-built house.  His team at Peak One were very competent and showed us respect for our time and choices, and were always there to answer questions and guide us through the entire process.

We would highly recommend Peak One Builders to build your custom home.  I have offered Mike to bring potential clients through our house anytime and show them what a beautiful, solid house we built.  The best thing about Mike is that he really cares.  From day one, he was fully engaged and stayed with us on every decision until completion (and still calls regularly to see if we are satisfied).

Very timely, reasonable price and excellent work.  What more could you ask for.  Stan came out and installed a new smart sprinkler timer I got at an SRP seminar.  Would highly recommend

We hired Crosspoint Contracting to remodel our kitchen and utility room.  We are very pleased with the job that was done.  We had a few minor setbacks with flooring and ceiling fans being on backorder.  But as soon as the materials were in Cliff had his crew out here getting things installed.  I would recommend Crosspoint for any of your construction needs.

Used this excellent company to put in a walkway through my gravel along the side of my house to the back patio and a separate pad for a garden shed. They showed up on time. They did a great job and the walkway looks wonderful. Travis and his father were easy to work with. Their helpers were very hard workiThe cost was reasonable. I would recommend them for any concrete work. Thank you Lumby Concrete.

I got lucky finding this guy!!!!  

I needed walls and floors replaced from an old roof leak.  He was also skilled to handle a hidden water leak in the laundry room.  

Come to find out, George is more than just a handy man.  He's a professional contractor with lots of experience building houses.  

Extremely impressive with how quick George responded to my request.  George is assertive, responsive, friendly, and knows what he is doing.  He is accommodating and helpful.   He also helped me move some items in my house.  Just an overall great and trustworthy guy.

Another great job by Andy.  My partner and I had to find a quick solution for enclosing a couple of exterior water heaters at my ancient property downtown.  It was affecting our ability to run the units for hot water and cooking.  Andy proposed a couple options and costs via text, came out a couple weeks earlier than his busy schedule would have otherwise permitted, reevaluated the proposed enclosures onsite, then provided refined recommendations.  It was all completed within a few days of contact.  Very pleased with the promptness, workmanship, and look.  Will rehire Old Reliable in the future.

I hired Dynamite for a bathroom remodel. They replaced a walk in tub, all new tile shower, new vanity, etc. Very happy with the work. Would definitely recommend and will be using them again for future projects.

Had a busted pipe in between my bathrooms right after Thanksgiving 2022 which was a disaster to get back home to. After water damage repairs I had a few different contractors quote for repairs. Mario was quick to respond and eager to get started even though the insurance haven't gave me funds yet. We went over the job in detail and what would need to be done along with materials. He helped pick up items that were needed from flooring stores or Lowe's without an issue and completed the job within 2 weeks time. Very happy with his work ethic and attitude so I would recommend Navas Remodeling.

I was very impressed with the COVID precautions taken durning my project. Everyone that entered my home had mask on and was very kind and courteous Dion address all of my questions before and during the process.  I am very please with the French door installation, the slabs of concrete to extend my patio, installation and wiring for a ceiling fan, along with removing a wall in my kitchen.  I definitely look forward to working with D&D construction again when I am ready to do my bathrooms.  Remodeling can be stressful especially during these times I am thankful that D&D construction was able to make me feel safe and gave me piece of mind during the entire process

Would give zero stars if possible because ZERO is exactly what we got from this company.  Spoke with Steve & per his request I sent him pictures and written details of about the job scope so he could prepare a relatively solid quote and let me know if the job was too big, too small, or something his company would take on.  Said he would get back to me with estimate.  Well, that never happened.  My husband gave him the benefit of the doubt because it was close to the holidays.  Nope, a month goes by and the holidays are over and still nothing.  No reply to my telephone voicemails, no reply to my text messages, no follow up contact whatsoever.  As I said to him in my text message of January 12, 2023, 'obviously our money is not green enough' for him.  And even with that, he did not have the decency to respond.  He obviously does not know the definition of Dynamic, but their business name is royal BS.

I paid David Roberts $9000 for a home project in Kingman that he has done little work on that was to be completed in June 2021. I understand that he has personal issues that have complicated his life, however, he is a businessman and needs to complete his contract with me. I will replace this adverse review with a positive recommendation upon completion of the project. David did call me today assuring me that he would get back on the job. Let's get it done, David. Until then I could not recommend doing business with you.
