Best Residential Project in Phoenix AZ

Irving is the guy you're looking for. While other companies are giving you the runaround and blaming poor customer service & delays on Covid, Irving is building his business by being polite, prompt, and professional.

I hired Irving to add some tile to a kitchen island and in a butlers pantry as a backsplash. He was able to fit me in the week after my inquiry and offered a very reasonable rate. He also handled the material pickup from Floor & Decor so I didn't have to get my vehicle dirty with construction materials.

Irving's work is quality. You can see it in the photos. But he is also considerate and reliable. He showed up when he said he would. He was done when he said he would be. Even when he took a lunch break, he would ask if I wanted him to bring me food. He's the kind of contractor that I'll call first & will absolutely use again. Highly recommended.

Bob does amazing work, we have had him do 3 different home remodel projects over the years. The first was a huge one, converting our open living room into a den for my husband. The second was a HISA shower conversion with the VA, and 3rd was tiling the bedrooms. We receive so many compliments on the den, most people assume it was built this way when the home was built. The floor to ceiling shower in our master is beautiful, and reminds us of a resort. The tile work is perfection, and you will be more than pleased any time you use VetsBuilt contracting and their contractors!

Andrew and his team restored me and my wife's trust in contractors and could not be happier with their work and professionalism.  Having just fired our previous contractor and being completely naive to home renovations, Andrew meticulously walked us through every step of the project, made sure we understood every charge and did not move forward until we accepted.  Having two children in our house, we were concerned that construction would become a big distraction for the family, this was not the case whatsoever.  Andrew and his team were respectful, clean and treated our house and the bathrooms they remodeled as if they were their own.  The pictures do no justice to the craftsmanship by Andrew and his team and I would recommend him to anyone.

Based on my initial experience with their "designer" Tiffany, I am not impressed at all. She started off asking me a few questions about my project, what I needed done, and what my budget was going to be. I told her I needed the kitchen, master bathroom and guest bathroom remodeled. Mind you, there will be no major floor plan changes, plumbing changes, nor electrical changes, so permits will not be needed at all for this 2200 sqft home.

All I am doing is replacing what is there. My kitchen is about 14' x 14' with cabinets along two opposite walls, with a 7 foot peninsula coming out of one end, with upper cabinets only on one wall. The first thing she does is take my address and goes online to find pictures of my house on a real estate website to "guestimate" what my kitchen will cost based on photos that she looks at. She tells me $50,000. That's when I got suspicious about this place. I had three other estimates for my kitchen with measurements actually taken and they all came in around $25000. But the real kicker came when she gave me estimates for my two bathrooms based on photos again. Mind you, she has no idea of the sizes for these bathrooms, but based on the overall square footage, she knows it's not a 5000+ sqft home.

For my guest bathroom, which is about 13' x 6', all I need replaced is the vanity, mirror, lights, toilet, and the alcove tub with tiling in the tub area, a simple job and nothing major. She quotes me $40,000. I nearly passed out, and now I'm thinking something is up.

For the master bath, which is approximately 17' x 7' which includes a 6' x 5' shower (with interior tiling), two vanities, mirrors, and lights. She quotes me $60,000. Yes that's right, $60,000. That's when I knew something was up.

(A) She either has no clue as to what she is doing, (B) they are giving me these outlandish prices because they are in high demand due to these times we are in at the moment and they just want to throw the highest most ridiculous price out there hoping it will stick, and if doesn't, no sweat off their back because they will just move on to someone who will pay their outlandish prices due to the demand, or (C) she was trying to dissuade me into wanting them to do the job because my budget ($50,000) wasn't worth their time and effort. I think (C) is most likely, if not all the above.

Then come to find out there is a $5500 fee to have someone come out to take measurements in order to draw up a pretty design on a computer to get actual true estimates of what this project would cost. So you can see why I'm thinking (C). Please note, If you go to their page on Houzz you will see nothing but all 5 star reviews, not a 4 star or lower in site, and you will also see multiple completed projects with the same level of remodel I proposed, all done for under $50,000, completely proving my point. I will definitely be staying away, and finding a more honest business!

We had Vlad check out a wall in our home as a pre-purchase due diligence. He showed up to the appointment on time and was able to provide an estimate by the end of the next business day. His estimate report was less than ideal as he was unable to provide a breakdown of his pricing. His estimate was much more than expected because he wanted to cut into other walls. We did ask him to look at a ceiling, so I understand why he was providing information on that. After a slow process in trying to have him break down the pricing, he was able to give use an estimate on just the wall we needed repaired. We paid a $125 estimate fee in which we were advised that this could be applied to the wall repair when we were ready for it. Come a couple of weeks later and we are ready to fix the wall following purchase, Vlad has been non-responsive and not returned any of our efforts via phone call or text message. This lapse in communication is a serious red flag and I will not let someone that cannot even follow up with communication work on my house.  He was fairly responsive during our initial inquire, however now that we want the work done, we feel totally ghosted. Perhaps the job is too small for him to even bother? That's fine...just SAY SO. I even gave him a chance by reaching out via yelp before I wrote this review. He responded, but it was a very non commital response. If you can reply via yelp, why cant you call us back??

I am not one to write a poor review...so this is more so a cautionary tale for others. We are first time home buyers and wish that we had done a little more research about general contractors before moving forward with this company.

Super happy to have found a handyman who is willing to whatever is necessary to make the customer happy! We appreciate this and you now have a lifetime diligent customer. I highly recommend them!

Contacted them about a home project and was told someone would call me by days end of the next day.  That was a week ago!  Still haven't heard back from them.  I could call them again but I'm not going to go after them and beg them to do my project.  It's obvious that they are not interested in my project but they could at least tell me that.  This lack of communication is reason enough not to have them work for me, ever. How about you?

Danny and his team are amazing.  Most importantly, they do great work.  They are also on time, customer friendly, and always cleans up after themselves daily.  We couldn't be happier with our bathroom reno and our experience with Solid Home Renovations!

This is the second project Lon has done for us.  First was our master bathroom that we still LOVE today.  This year, we decided to renovate the entire house!  After emptying the house of all our belongings, Lon and crew took down two walls, opened up our living room, kitchen and dining room.  We redesigned the kitchen and the dining room.  New flooring throughout the entire house and new doors.  The house has been transformed with the help of Lon's vision.  We can't stop telling ourselves how much we love our new space.  Lon and crew did a fantastic job and we honestly could not be happier.

We have been very pleased with the professionalism of Brent Pemberton of McLintock Builders.  Since at least 2016, he has been involved with over six different residential home remodeling projects and he is a true industry professional.  For anyone wondering, yes, he is licensed, bonded and insured.

Brent shows up when he says he will be there and is very prompt at returning both calls and emails, something not every General Contractor does.  I really can't say enough great things about him.  

As a side note to you Brent, Maryanne and Jack wanted to also say thank you as well, for always having the homes ready before our crews arrive to start the flooring demolition, it really makes everything go easier for us!  We are looking forward to many more years together.

Caine and Company remodeled the majority of my house, replaced the roof, and transformed my front & back patios into outside living spaces.  From start to finish the project was best-in-class. Justin's consultation along the way was invaluable.  The integrity and quality of work shows in the timeliness and care they took to make sure I was comfortable throughout the entire process and happy with all of the work performed.  I really appreciated the follow up 6 months and a year later to make sure I was still happy! I have recommended them several times, and everyone reports the same thing- these guys are the best! Scott G., Phoenix

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!

We hired VAM Construction and Remodeling to close in a drywall entertainment.  Their estimate was 42% lower than the highest bid.  The project included closing in the entertainment center, removing an old TV from a different wall, patching and painting that wall, installing an electric fireplace, and hanging a Frame TV.  VAM arrived as scheduled.  They began work on the Monday before Thanksgiving (11/21/22) and it was completed on Tuesday, 11/30/22.  VAM employees were friendly, competent, and asked questions to ensure the project met expectations. The wall looks better than I imagined. I'm so happy I chose VAM and will call them for our next project.  THANK YOU!

Consider yourself lucky if you get the opportunity to work with Keith and Roger! From minute one you could tell the team was honest and only concerned with helping you achieve your goals. Keith our lead was knowledgable and happy to guide us, he gave me advice along the way that saved us a ton of money!

The bid was beyond reasonable given the current market - we were blown away - hands down best contractor experience I have ever had!

Attached is a photo of a room add-on they completed for us.

Outstanding. Absolutely outstanding. Ethical, personable and genuinely interested in our satisfaction. True professionals with good hearts.
They rebuilt our flood damaged home and performed many remodeling upgrades at the same time. They offered sensible solutions and worked around our busy schedules. Calls were returned promptly and questions answered always.
All of their subcontractors were people they had worked with for many years and were clean-cut, articulate craftsmen. They cleaned up after every days work and kept us up to date on progress. When we made changes along the way, they took it in stride and offered options to best achieve our goals.
Our home was built in 1959 and had unique lath and plaster drywall. The materials are no longer available, but in order to retain the original quality of the home, they found a method that was similar enough to look the same and have the same sound when I did the "knock test".
They did many extras, like painting the front sidewalk-"it just didn't look right all chipped up" and made a new side gate as well- at no added charge- because it was the right thing to do. They understood what we were trying to do- bring the house back to original quality and remodel it for sale.
To give you an idea of what kind of guys thy are, on the weekends, they volunteer at Habitat for Humanity and use their skills to built homes for the disadvantaged in the Valley. Good souls.
Jeff navigated us through a maze of options to get our electric upgraded without kicking us into a higher permit level that would have resulted in us having to lower windows for egress- at an estimated $26k. Instead, they offered legal, ethical alternatives that got the goals achieved within our budget. They know the ins and outs of the business and use it to YOUR advantage. True professionals.
I'm an engineer, so I'm a detail person by nature, and BHB left no details missed. Their quality is top notch as well, and they came in below our insurance estimate.
I highly recommend them for jobs big and small. Good people.

Chris and his team were amazing. They tore down the wall that divided the kitchen and living room. We were told by a different contractor that we couldn't take the wall out since the plumbing was in a post tension slab. But Chris had his guys come x-ray the floor and they moved everything over. Definitely recommend AZ Dynamic Builders!

No show, no call and when called, indicated he arranged an hour window to arrive, which is not true.  This appointment was made with him not through a service or other staff.  Total disregard for your time and your work schedule and with something as simple as arriving on time for a meeting in which he set the time, take note people.

I was looking for someone who could match and blend the stucco on my backyard walls with places that needed repair.  I am extremely picky.  I had 3 people previously try to match and blend the stucco to no avail.  I finally decided to go with a reputable company that specializes in stucco.  I was not disappointed.  Antonio did such a good job you would not be able to tell where the repairs were done.  It all blends together.

Amazing company and staff.  Rob Pankow, the owner runs a class act here.   He and his staff are very professional and are outstanding in really listening to the clients needs/desires and then translating that into a home design all within the clients budget.   I can't say enough about this company.  It has taken me several years and many interviews with construction/home remodel firms to find this hidden gem.  Rob has put together a well oiled and efficently run company with a fabulous team consisting of  the fabulous Mel, who has a stellar eye for home design and detail, Ray, design architect, a genus who will come out measure your home and then layout the design of your existing space on paper and then design 2 additional new plans/designs for your remodel. All three of these fabulous people will sit down and go over the plans and make any adjustments as needed, to ensure your complete satisfaction and budget concerns are met.   The teams ability to see my home and redesign into more usable space is amazing. Rob, Mel, and Ray all think outside of the box, listening to my needs, how i function in my home and taking that information and fusing them with their vision onto scaled plans.   I have not been disappointed at all.  They all work together well and understand the individual client that they are working with.
I highly recommend Pankow Construction and their staff as they are honest, genuine, concerned about the client and their needs, easy to work with,  and make the process of home remodel fun.  
Pankow Construction is a hidden gem and for me well worth the wait.
