Fast, Reliable General Contractor Across Las Vegas
Finding a general contractor in Las Vegas who can handle a full renovation without subcontracting away accountability is harder than it should be. Ellsworth Contractors runs interior and exterior work under one roof, so a kitchen remodel on the Marycrest side of town gets the same project discipline as a roofing tear-off near the 89101 corridor. We pull permits, coordinate inspections, and stand behind the work. Call (888) 445-6077 for a free estimate on any scope, from a bathroom refresh to a whole-home addition.
Why Ellsworth Contractors Is Las Vegas’s Preferred General Contractor Company
We work the ZIPs Las Vegas homeowners actually live in: 89101, 89102, 89104, 89139, and the neighborhoods between. That local coverage matters when an inspector’s schedule shifts or a monsoon storm threatens an open trench. Our reputation is built on showing up when we say we will and documenting every change order so the number you sign is the number you pay. Reed Calloway set the standard from day one: never close a wall until it’s been inspected.
Las Vegas customers keep us honest. The housing stock here varies block to block, from 1950s ranch homes near Maryland Parkway to stucco-and-tile subdivisions from the 1990s. Each project gets the same treatment: a written scope, named material allowances, and a permit file that survives the job. We respond to Las Vegas calls fast because we route crews from our Paradise base, not from another state.
Styles & brands we work with
Construction Company in Las Vegas
A construction company in Las Vegas operates under conditions no coastal crew prepares for. Caliche layers sit just below grade in much of the valley, turning a standard footing dig into a jackhammer job. Blow sand complicates trenching. Summer heat pushes concrete placement to dawn. We schedule around these realities, not against them.
When a Las Vegas homeowner needs structural work, the cost depends on scope, not guesswork. Home additions run $45,000 – $130,000. Garage conversions run $30,000 – $80,000. Roof replacement with a wind-rated assembly runs $8,000 – $20,000; metal roofing runs $15,000 – $40,000. Every quote we write names the products and the wind-pressure rating they carry.
Footing and Foundation Scope
Slab-on-grade is the default here. When we tie an addition into an existing slab, we verify the soil report and re-engineer footings if caliche demands it. That work gets signed off before concrete pours.
Inspected Framing and Close-In
Framing in Las Vegas gets reviewed against Nevada wind-load provisions, not a national average. We schedule the inspector before drywall, not after. That sign-off is the document that matters.
Remodeling Contractor in Las Vegas
A remodeling contractor in Las Vegas works on homes where original plumbing and electrical in 1960s ranches hasn’t been touched in decades. We open walls with that expectation: what’s behind the stucco and lath is rarely as clean as the renderings suggest. When we find rotted subfloor or undersized wiring, we stop, photograph it, and write the change order before proceeding.
Kitchen remodels in Las Vegas run $14,000 – $45,000. Bathroom remodels run $9,000 – $28,000. Walk-in showers run $4,500 – $12,000. Those ranges assume the slab and framing cooperate. When they don’t, the allowance and change-order structure protects the homeowner from a disputed bill.
Kitchen Remodel Scope
We run cabinets from KraftMaid and Wellborn, and countertops from Cambria and Silestone. A small kitchen remodel in Las Vegas runs $9,000 – $20,000; a full kitchen with island, countertops, and backsplash reaches the top of the range.
Bathroom Remodel Scope
Tub-to-shower conversions run $3,500 – $10,000. Vanity installation runs $800 – $3,000. We build on Schluter waterproofing substrate so tile failure doesn’t become a mold problem in a home with slab floors.
Trusted Brands We Service in Las Vegas
Ellsworth Contractors works with over 50 manufacturers across cabinetry, countertops, plumbing fixtures, roofing, windows, doors, fencing, and hardscaping. For Las Vegas customers, that means the right product is available, not substituted. Cambria and Silestone countertops are usually in regional stock for valley deliveries. KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinetry ship with lead times we build into the schedule. We don’t push one brand because a supplier agreement says so. Material selection is driven by what the project needs, what the local inspector approves, and what the budget carries. That’s the difference between a contractor who specs and a contractor who accepts whatever arrives.

AfterCommon General Contractor Problems We See in Las Vegas Homes
- Unpermitted prior work: A previous owner removed a wall or added a bathroom without a permit. When you go to sell or file an insurance claim, the missing inspection record becomes your problem. We can often bring the work into compliance and get it signed off.
- Stucco failure over wood frame: Las Vegas stucco expands and contracts under extreme heat and UV. Hairline cracks let monsoon moisture in, and the lath behind it starts to corrode. By the time you see staining, the damage is already behind the wall.
- Roof assemblies without local product approvals: Out-of-state crews swap tile or shingles without submitting the product-approval paperwork Clark County requires. The roof may hold for a season. But when a windstorm hits, the carrier asks for documentation that doesn’t exist.
- Slab and footing surprises: Caliche doesn’t show up in a real estate listing. When excavation hits it, a crew without an allowance structure hits you with a change order that wasn’t discussed. We write for that risk before the dig starts.

FAQs About General Contractor in Las Vegas
Your roof covering and attached exterior-wall components in Las Vegas must meet the wind-pressure ratings set by the adopted building code, which Clark County enforces through its product-approval process. A compliant roof carries a product approval number the inspector verifies before sign-off. Most homeowners never hear about this until an unpermitted job fails. Call (888) 445-6077 and we’ll review what your current roof actually has on file.
Yes. Home additions and load-bearing wall removals in Las Vegas require permits and inspections. The inspection sign-off is the only documentation your insurance carrier sees when wind or monsoon water damage happens later. We pull the permits, schedule the inspections, and hand you the completed file. Call (888) 445-6077 to get started.
Documented compliance changes the claim outcome. If your roof or addition was permitted, inspected, and signed off, the carrier treats it as a documented improvement and pays accordingly. If the work was unpermitted, the claim gets complicated fast. We build every Las Vegas project with that paper trail from day one.
It should name the wind-rated products, the permit fees, the inspection schedule, and the allowance structure for hidden conditions like caliche or rotted framing. A cheap quote leaves every one of those out. That’s how a $60,000 addition becomes a $90,000 dispute. Call (888) 445-6077 for a written line-item quote.
Yes, but it changes the schedule. Concrete placement moves to dawn or night pours to manage curing. Roofing crews start before the 110°F afternoon heat. Exterior finishes get staged around the worst UV hours. It slows things down a bit, and that’s the right way. We plan for it rather than pretending the desert doesn’t exist.
