Based on 50 reviewsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sam and Ali were absolutely fantastic to work with. From the very beginning, they were professional, thorough, and incredibly communicative. They came out multiple times to assess the situation and provided a detailed, transparent quote that clearly outlined the scope of work—no hidden fees, no surprises. What really stood out was their honesty and the time they took to explain everything. The level of detail they provided gave us full confidence in their knowledge and capabilities. They were easy to talk to, responsive, and clearly dedicated to helping their clients understand every step of the process. If you're looking for a company that is reliable, transparent, and truly knows their stuff choose A/S general contracting. I 10/10 recommend them.

Rebecca GomezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A/S general contractor was recommended by a friend and so glad I went with them. They were able to come in and remodel our house after a flood and it far exceeded my expectations. They turned a stressful situation to easy and stress free for us. Special shoutout to Sam, for keeping things honest and straight forward. I knew what I was getting from the get go and if I had any issues he was able to correct them within the hour. Sam is detailed oriented and you can he shows that he cares about the customers by his actions. Chad WhitehouseTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Two years after the “shoddy” work they performed we are having to completely replace the flooring. They shot pin nails into laminate flooring but that isn’t the worst part. The patchwork they used to lay a sub floor was crap. They know what they did. They all like to agree and blame the homeowner for whatever goes wrong. One tone even suggesting they because we live in a “trailer house,” the floor would never be perfect. Well now we see clearly what kind of a pieced together project they did, we now have someone who is fixing this fiasco! Don’t use them Danette O'QuinTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. AS General Contacting is a great company. They repaired the water damage to my porch in a timely, professional manner. I highly recommend them to anyone who needs any type of repair! Deborah J. DavisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Any leak damage will take time and patience. Ali, Greg and Abel were great. Good communication! Good follow through! Scheduling was clearly communicated. Every project takes time, but these guys took care of the little details. They also helped me get the most from my coverage. This is my 3rd time working with A/S Contracting. I would recommend them to anyone. Eric HughesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great service fair prices. Sam and Danny were great communicators and got the job done efficiently! Maria TsagalakisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Professional, patient, first class customer service, on time execution and overall great experience working with this company. Highly recommend! Olivia BueTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a major water leak that required us to file a claim through our insurance company, and our plumber referred us to A/S General. From the very beginning, Greg and Sam were incredibly helpful, guiding us through the entire process and helping expedite everything with our insurance company. Greg, Sam, and their entire team were professional, thorough, and communicative every step of the way. The construction crew consistently showed up on time, worked efficiently, and always left the work area clean at the end of each day. Thanks to their attention to detail and quality craftsmanship, our home is now in even better condition than before the water leak. We highly recommend A/S General to anyone in need of home restoration or construction services. Thank you to the entire team for taking such great care of our home! Mark Anthony YraolaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had such a great experience working with Ali and his team. I own two salons and over the years his team has helped and guided me into the many upgrades and changes I've done thru-out the spaces. I like to stay current and hip, whether thats rearranging furniture, window treatments, fresh paint, crown mold,etc ...His team has been there to help me manage my spaces.
