"Isela and Cesar of Azteca were very professional and their crew are extremely well qualified. They removed a partial wall and a row of cabinets above our sink and then cut an opening in another wall above our appliances allowing more light and sound into the kitchen. This work required significant demo, electrical, drywall and patching and painting work. Everything turned out perfect. During the project the workers were timely and cleaned up each day, the overall cost was very fair. I highly recommend Azteca Builders for all your home improvement projects."

"If I could give negative stars I would. ABA was the most dishonest and worst company I have ever worked with. Their work is pure garbage. We had to hire a different company to come in and fix all their mistakes including plumbing and electrical (leaking shower into the garage, body sprayers not working, water leaking under sinks, had to rewire the kitchen, lights placed in the wrong location, wrong gauged wire used for electrical, toilets not mounted correctly, tiles cracking in the showers, grounds not used for electrical components, overloading breaker and the list goes on. It has been a complete nightmare. They have horrible organizational skills and could never keep track of what was going on or who was coming on what day. Joe does a great job at showing up to collect money, but not to make sure the work is being done correctly. My advise: save yourself the headache, time, and horrible workmanship and go with a different company. We had to get the ROC involved. "

"They were one of the first to respond to my need for an estimate on my kitchen remodel (due to pipe burst, would be working with insurance). The gentleman came out and was lovely but then completely ghosted me. I never received the estimate or any communication on why. I cannot recommend them if this is how they run their business."

Love Where You Live! You are in the driver's seat...If you are planning a complete kitchen makeover or simply want to change from a tub to a shower in the bathroom, we will bring efficiency & value to your project.
"It was easy to sign up with Rob at 5 Star Kitchen and Bath because he was full of promises and has a likeable personality. However, things haven't gone so well. We got off to a good start but a couple of weeks in, plumbing issues with the dwelling had to be addressed. After a 2 week pause, getting them to return and take this project to completion in a timely manner has failed. It's been 2 years and still not done. I am nervous about the reliability of the work in the showers. I watched them do the waterproofing. I expressed my concerns to deaf ears. The tile work is average. I still don't have a working temperature control after 30 mos. I asked for insulation under the tub for sound reduction and they didn't do it because it wasn't necessary. It was for me. The plumber for 5 Star has yet to return to fix the water hammer in the wall that I hear everyday, as well as a few other things. Unfortunately, against my better judgement, I let him talk me into paying for the project before it was completed on a verbal promise he would take care of everything."

MasterAZscapes LLC offers landscaping in Phoenix, AZ & surrounding areas to turn dreams into reality. We have over 16 years of experience in AZ doing landscaping, and we are the only landscaper you need. MasterAZscapes Building Masterpieces One Yard At A Time.
"MasterAZscapes landscaped my backyard in Vistancia with a large cactus garden, lots of bougainvillea for a future hedge, 3 trees, a sidewalk, irrigation, lights, boulders, mounding and decorative rocks. During the planning stage Troy provided me with pricing for each specific plant, rather than just describing X number of plants for X price. I knew what the size of each plant would be, so there were no surprises. He even provided me with a computer image of just how my garden would look. When I didn't like the rip rap delivered by the rock company, there was no argument about changing it out, or who would pay to remove the offensive rip rap. Darrel came by with samples of replacement rock and the project continued with no delay. They planted over 80 plants, with many large, pricey cacti. They did a beautiful job and I'm very pleased with my new garden. I would highly recommend them as they showed great care and thought from the planning stage with Troy through the installation process with Darrel and Tommie. From beginning to end, their primary objective appeared to be my happiness, and they succeeded."

Converting a garage is worth it because it can significantly increase your home's value while providing additional living space for your family or guests. Adding a bedroom or bathroom enhances your property's appeal to potential buyers, and creating a guest suite or apartment can even generate passive rental income while you still own the house.
A garage conversion can take between two and six weeks for the construction work, depending on the size and complexity of the project. Before construction begins, you need to secure the proper building permits and hire a contractor. Keep in mind that contractors are often in high demand and might schedule several weeks out. If your garage conversion is extensive or involves significant structural changes, the timeline could extend to eight weeks or more. For attached garages, the proximity to your living space may cause some disruption during construction.
To make your garage livable, at a minimum, you need to insulate the walls, add in legally required egress windows, install flooring, put up drywall, and add in air conditioning and heating. If you intend to use the space as a bedroom, office, bathroom, or kitchen, you will need to consider additional electrical and plumbing needs.
A garage conversion counts as living space when it meets certain criteria. The converted garage must be attached to your home and include permanent features like proper insulation, finished walls and ceilings, and adequate ventilation. It should be suitable for year-round living, with heating and cooling systems to maintain comfortable temperatures in all seasons. Meeting these standards allows the converted space to be included in your home's total square footage, potentially increasing its value.
In most cases, you do not need to hire an architect for a garage conversion. An experienced garage conversion contractor usually has the skills to help create your desired design and ensure the project meets building codes. However, if your conversion involves complex structural changes or a large-scale redesign, hiring an architect can be beneficial. An architect can provide detailed plans and oversee the design to maximize space and functionality, ensuring the conversion aligns with your vision and complies with all regulations.
