Featured Reviews for Builders in Philadelphia, PA

M&K Renovations, LLC
Builders in Philadelphia, PA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars28 February 2020
“They did an outstanding job! Enlarged master bathroom making it double sink. Very easy to work with. Loved them so much that they’re now redoing our master bedroom closets, pulled up carpet and stained hardwood. Always on time. Need I say more?”
Buckminster Green LLC
Builders in Philadelphia, PA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 June 2012
“Kenny and his team are not only very experienced builders, they are stewards of the environment. His team is perfect for any home owner looking for affordable, eco-friendly renovations. What I appreciate most about Kenny and his team is that they spend time educating their clients so that they can make informed decisions. Buckminster Green is not your average construction service. They are thoughtful, creative and most importantly, fun to work with. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to renovate, or add to their home in a earth friendly way.”

“My experience with A&Z General Contracting has been phenomenal. They mean exactly what they say and ask all the right questions to get the desired results that I wanted. They move fast but efficiently. They are always on time and delivered excellent customer services skills. I will continue to utilize A&Z with any future work that I have for my home and recommend them to anyone who asks me about a general contractor.”
Sparti Mainline
Builders in Philadelphia, PA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars10 April 2017
“Peter Economou is exceptionally professional and does an excellent job on budget and on time. His company totally renovated two bathrooms for us. Not only did he help us with our selection of materials that were appropriate for our project but he took great pride in making sure that the projects turned out as we wished and are both beautiful and functional. Sparti also replaced our deck a couple of years ago. This was also a great project. We highly recommend Sparti Construction.”
Falasca Builders, LLC
Builders in Philadelphia, PA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars2 January 2013
“We had a complete remodel of the first two floors of the house - These guys are fantastic - they listened and worked with us on all our concerns”
Anthony C Esposito
Builders in Philadelphia, PA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars6 March 2014
“We hired Anthony to design and renovate our small South Philly basement. He and his team (big shout out to my main man Chuck!) did an amazing job. It required some significant D&E and juggling several different teams. Anthony was on the job and available 24/7, keeping us up to date via text, emails and phone calls. He worked quickly and used his extensive connections to find us quality products on a budget. When issues popped up totally unrelated to his work, Anthony worked with our previous contractors to identify the issue, come up with a solution, and got them to pay 100% of the cost. Without Anthony we would have been out of luck! To this day, we go back to Anthony with questions and requests for recommendations and he always comes through. Like our concierge contractor! Hire Anthony, you'll be happy you did! (Yes I'm a real person and no I'm not a blood relative - have Anthony put me in touch with you if you need a reference)”
A B Graham Contracting
Builders in Philadelphia, PA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars16 December 2014
“Drew remodeled my entire kitchen along with two new double hung series energy package windows with capping. The kitchen looks 100% better! What I can say is I do not trust many contractors to do the work, but Drew's professionalism and his work was A+ along with his reliability. In addition, his price is extremely fair and will work with you on the important needs of the project. I have and will continue to recommend Drew's work to all of my family & friends.”
Hanson Fine Building
Builders in Philadelphia, PA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 March 2013
“We had a wonderful experience working with Hanson General Contacting on a kitchen renovation. This was the biggest construction project we had ever undertaken and we couldn’t be happier with our new space. Our home was built in 1879, and has great character as well as challenges. HGC gutted our old kitchen and removed an exterior wall to extend the footprint. They took care to salvage existing materials, such as the original doors that were repurposed in the project. They matched the historic details, such as crown molding and trim, and they found bricks that matched the original facade. They sourced reclaimed wood to match the existing hardwood floors and beams for the extension to match the existing beams. Hanson guided us through with the right blend of soliciting our input, and advising us based on their experience and respect for our budget. We now have an amazing space where our whole family spends so much more time together.”

Builders in Philadelphia, PA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars20 October 2019
“Keith is very good at what he does. Honest and very attentive to his work performance. I use him all the time for my jobs. His is worth every dollar I spend on rehabs and repairs. He gets my jobs done in a timely manner and very professional. Thanks”

Builder FAQs
There are several reasons why you should hire a local builder in Philadelphia:
  1. Local builders will be familiar with your local authorities building regulations, being able to advise on any relevant permits you need before work can begin.
  2. Builders near you will be aware of the climate of your area, and can recommend materials and construction methods suitable for your area.
  3. Building firms nearby will provide quicker responses and quotes compared to contractors outside of your local area, as they are nearby, they will often drop in to talk to you about your project and view the property.

For home builders, you will usually receive a quote for a building project instead of daily rates or hourly fees. The cost depends on various factors such as the type of job, builders experience and length of the project.

Expect to pay less for a small maintenance job such as brickwork repair or an extension of an existing wall than a new build project such as a kitchen or bathroom renovation and home extensions. After you’ve found a local builder for your project, speaking with them in detail about your project will help them give you an accurate estimate for the work required.
If you hire a home builder for a lengthy project, such as an extension, your builder may charge a daily rate. You can expect to pay around £350 per day for this. If your builder charges this way, ask for an estimation of how long this will take so you know roughly how much the total cost will be.

When looking for a Philadelphia building company to take on your project, you will want to know that they will be able to handle the job in good time and sticking to your agreed budget. A professional contractor will have worked on projects like yours previously and they will know exactly what to do.

Compile a shortlist of at least three builders in Philadelphia that can handle the full scope of works, either by themselves or through sub-contracting. It is often a good idea to play devils advocate and ask what the builder will not be responsible for. Be wary of unusually cheap quotes. Ask for references and stories about how the builder has met different challenges along the way. If you can, you could try to see previous projects and talk to previous clients, or if not, read reviews, recommendations and ratings, and look at detailed photos of projects. All of which you can find on Houzz.
