Trusted General Contractor for Paradise Homeowners
Finding our General Contractor in Paradise to handle a kitchen remodel without punting the roofing work to someone else is harder than it should be. Most homeowners end up juggling three or four separate crews, each with their own schedule, markup, and warranty finger-pointing. Ellsworth Contractors eliminates that entire headache. We’re a licensed general contractor built around one simple idea: you hire one company, you get one accountable team, and every trade from foundation to roofline answers to the same standard. Reed Calloway leads our Paradise projects personally. When you call (888) 445-6077, you reach our office, not a call center.
Construction Company
A Construction Company is the business entity that carries the license, insurance, and trade relationships to build and renovate residential property legally and safely. In Paradise, NV, that means a Nevada state contractor’s license, workers’ compensation coverage, and the ability to pull permits through Clark County. Ellsworth Contractors operates as a full-scope construction company handling interior remodels, exterior replacements, and accessory structures from one contract. A typical kitchen remodel in Paradise runs $14,000 to $45,000, while a full home addition starts at $45,000 and can reach $130,000 depending on square footage and structural requirements.
Full-Scope Accountability
When a project crosses from interior to exterior work, most construction companies hand off the roofing or siding scope to a sub they barely know. We don’t. Our crews handle kitchens, baths, roofing, windows, siding, fencing, and hardscaping under one project plan. The person you call about a cabinet delay is the same person who knows your roof deck condition.
Material Sourcing Without Substitution
We work directly with manufacturers like Cambria, Silestone, Caesarstone, James Hardie, GAF, and Therma-Tru so the product specified at contract signing is the product installed. No “equivalent” substitutions. That access to 50+ verified manufacturers means your material selection is driven by your project’s performance needs and budget, not by what a supplier happens to have in inventory.
Styles & brands we work with
Remodeling Contractor
A Remodeling Contractor specializes in transforming existing spaces rather than building new square footage. In Paradise, where homes range from 1970s ranches to newer southwest builds, remodeling contractors deal with everything from outdated galley kitchens to bathrooms that haven’t been touched since the original build. Ellsworth Contractors functions as a remodeling contractor with an unusual advantage: our scope doesn’t stop at the interior. A kitchen remodel in Paradise typically costs $14,000 to $45,000, and a bathroom remodel runs $9,000 to $28,000. Those numbers include materials, labor, and the permits required by Clark County.
Kitchen and Bath Precision
We use Schluter waterproofing systems under every tile installation, which means your walk-in shower isn’t just beautiful on day one. It’s built on a properly waterproofed substrate that prevents the slow water damage most remodelers leave behind. KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinetry provide genuine factory-built boxes, not job-site cut-and-nail work.
Remodels That Honor the House
A 1980s Paradise home has different framing, electrical, and plumbing realities than a 2015 build. We evaluate the existing envelope before proposing finish work, because a beautiful new countertop means nothing if the wall behind it was never properly insulated. That’s the difference between a remodel that lasts fifteen years and one that starts failing in five.
Licensed General Contractor
A Licensed General Contractor holds the state-issued classification required to pull building permits, manage subcontractors, and legally perform residential construction work in Nevada. Paradise homeowners should insist on this licensing because unlicensed operators cannot obtain permits, leaving you exposed to code violations, failed inspections, and zero recourse if the work goes wrong. Ellsworth Contractors is a licensed general contractor serving Paradise and the surrounding Las Vegas Valley communities, as detailed in The Complete General Contractor Guide for Paradise Homeowners. Roof replacement work in this market runs $8,000 to $20,000, while a full home addition starts at $45,000 and an ADU construction project typically lands between $90,000 and $220,000.
Permits Pulled, Inspections Passed
We pull the permit, schedule the inspection, and stand with you through every approval. Clark County has specific requirements for structural, electrical, and plumbing work, and our team knows what the inspectors look for. No shortcuts, no “we’ll handle it after the fact” arrangements.
What the License Actually Protects
Your contract with a licensed general contractor includes clear scope, payment terms, and warranty obligations that a handyman operating out of a pickup cannot legally offer. Reed Calloway signs our contracts and stands behind the work. That’s not marketing language; it’s how legitimate construction businesses operate in Nevada.
Residential General Contractor
A General Contractor Maintenance Checklist for Paradise Homeowners starts with understanding that a Residential General Contractor focuses exclusively on single-family homes, townhomes, and accessory dwelling units rather than commercial buildings. That specialization matters because residential work in Paradise involves HOAs, residential building codes, and homeowner expectations that commercial contractors rarely handle well. Ellsworth Contractors operates specifically in the residential space, with capability spanning kitchens, bathrooms, roofing, siding, windows, fencing, hardscaping, and prefab ADU structures. A paver patio installation in Paradise ranges from $3,500 to $11,000, and impact window installation for desert heat and monsoon season runs $8,000 to $25,000.
HOA-Aware Project Planning
Many Paradise neighborhoods have architectural review committees that must approve exterior changes before work begins. We prepare the submittal packages, handle the correspondence, and schedule the work around HOA approval timelines. If your fence replacement needs to match a specific height and style, we handle that specification from day one.
Desert Climate Construction
Paradise gets 300+ days of sun and occasional monsoon downpours that expose every waterproofing flaw. We spec roofing underlayments, window flashing, and exterior sealants for desert conditions, not for a generic national average. That means materials that hold up when the July sun hits 110 degrees and the August storms roll through.
Hire a General Contractor
You Hire a General Contractor when a project involves multiple trades, requires permits, or exceeds what a single specialist can reasonably handle. The decision to hire a general contractor in Paradise usually comes down to scope: a kitchen remodel needs a plumber, electrician, cabinet installer, and countertop fabricator. Without a GC, you’re the project manager, and every scheduling conflict lands on your lap. Ellsworth Contractors takes that role off your plate. A kitchen remodel in Paradise costs $14,000 to $45,000, and a small bathroom remodel runs $5,000 to $12,000. Those ranges assume licensed, permitted work with real manufacturer materials.
When a General Contractor Saves You Money
Homeowners often think hiring specialists directly saves money. In practice, you’re paying each specialist their own mobilization cost, their own overhead, and their own markup on materials. A general contractor consolidates those costs and sequences the work so trades don’t get in each other’s way. The result is a faster project and fewer change orders.
Red Flags to Avoid
In the Las Vegas Valley, homeowners should be cautious of contractors who demand large upfront cash payments, won’t provide a written contract, or claim permits “aren’t necessary.” Any of those signals means you’re working with someone who won’t be around when the inspection fails or the warranty claim comes due. We provide written line-item quotes and never ask for full payment before the work is complete.
General Contractor Services
General Contractor Services cover the full range of residential construction work: remodeling, additions, exterior replacement, and specialty structures. In Paradise, that means kitchens and bathrooms, roofing and siding, windows and doors, fencing, hardscaping, concrete work, and even prefab ADU installations. Ellsworth Contractors positions itself as the single point of accountability across all these scopes, backed by manufacturer relationships with Cambria, James Hardie, GAF, Kohler, Belgard, and more. A tub-to-shower conversion in Paradise runs $3,500 to $10,000, and a vinyl fence installation costs $3,500 to $9,000.
Interior-to-Exterior Scope
Most general contractors in Paradise specialize in one side of the house. We deliberately built our capability to handle both, because the projects that actually improve a home’s value almost always cross that line. A kitchen remodel with a new exterior door to the patio. A bathroom renovation that includes a window replacement. A paver patio that ties into new siding. One crew, one schedule, one warranty.
Prefab and ADU Capability
We’re one of the few residential general contractors in the Paradise area with established partnerships across prefab and ADU brands including Abodu, Dvele, Mighty Buildings, Boxabl, and Plant Prefab. That expands what your property can do, whether you’re adding a rental unit, a home office, or guest quarters. ADU construction in this market typically runs $90,000 to $220,000 depending on size and site conditions.

Brands We Service
Our work doesn’t depend on a single product line, and that’s intentional. When you work with Ellsworth Contractors, you choose the material that fits your Paradise home’s specific needs. We install Schluter waterproofing systems on every tile shower and wet area because substrate integrity is where tile jobs live or die. Schluter’s membrane and drainage systems let us build walk-in showers in Paradise homes that won’t rot from the inside out, even with the humidity swings of evaporative-cooled houses.
For fixtures, we specify Toto toilets and American Standard plumbing fixtures frequently because they’re built to handle hard water without the mineral buildup that kills cheaper components. Our experience with Sterling bath and shower systems means we can spec a tub-to-shower conversion with confidence in the final fit and finish. Whether you have one of these brands or any other make, we can source the right materials and install them correctly.

AfterSigns You Need a Pro Right Now
- Water stains on the ceiling or walls. In Paradise, these often mean a roof leak from monsoon damage or a plumbing failure inside the wall. The longer water sits, the more expensive the repair becomes, because you’re now dealing with mold and structural rot on top of the original issue.
- Visible cracking in the foundation or slab. Desert soil expands and contracts with temperature swings, and cracking can indicate settlement that needs a structural evaluation. Ignoring it means doors that stop closing and floors that start sloping.
- Your circuit breakers trip constantly. Older Paradise homes were built for 100-amp service, and modern kitchens with double ovens and induction cooktops demand more than the original panel can supply. A full-home renovation is the right time to upgrade electrical infrastructure, not after the drywall is back up.
- Windows that fog between the panes. That’s a failed seal, and in the Paradise heat, failed windows are leaking your cooling budget straight outside. Impact-rated replacements from PGT or CGI also improve storm and break-in resistance.
- Kitchen or bathroom tile that sounds hollow when tapped. That hollow sound means the tile bond is failing, often because the substrate was never properly waterproofed. Lifting tile usually reveals the water damage underneath, and that’s a repair that compounds fast.
Our Process, Step by Step
- 1
Initial Call and Scope Discussion. When you call (888) 445-6077, we ask about your project, your timeline, and what’s driving the work. Reed Calloway or a senior project lead walks through the scope on the phone and schedules a site visit if it makes sense.
- 2
On-Site Evaluation. We visit your Paradise home, take measurements, evaluate existing conditions, and talk through material options. This is where we identify issues that won’t show up on a Zoom call: the wall that isn’t square, the window header that needs reinforcement, the drain location that complicates a shower pan.
- 3
Written Line-Item Quote. You get a detailed estimate with every material, trade, and permit fee listed separately. No lump-sum mystery pricing. The quote specifies the exact manufacturers and product lines we’re proposing, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
- 4
Permitting and Scheduling. We pull the Clark County permits, coordinate HOA approvals if needed, and create the construction schedule. You’ll know which trades arrive on which days and what to expect from each phase.
- 5
Construction and Walkthrough. Work proceeds under one project manager, with regular progress updates. At the end, we do a formal walkthrough, address any punch-list items, and close out the permits with final inspections.
How Much Does General Contractor Cost in Paradise?
A typical kitchen remodel in Paradise runs $14,000 to $45,000 depending on cabinet line, countertop material, and whether you’re moving plumbing or electrical. A bathroom remodel costs $9,000 to $28,000, with a smaller bath landing between $5,000 and $12,000. Roof replacement in this market runs $8,000 to $20,000, while a paver patio installation lands between $3,500 and $11,000. For larger projects, a home addition spans $45,000 to $130,000, and ADU construction runs $90,000 to $220,000. The biggest factors affecting price are material grade (a Cambria countertop costs more than a basic laminate), structural work (moving walls, repairing framing), and permitting requirements specific to your property.
To avoid overpaying, insist on a written line-item quote that separates materials from labor and specifies exact manufacturers. Ask whether the contractor is marking up materials beyond the supplier price, and check that the quote includes permit fees and inspections rather than treating them as “extras.” A free estimate from Ellsworth Contractors includes the full scope evaluation, the written quote, and a material specification sheet. Call (888) 445-6077 to schedule yours.

Frequently Asked Questions About General Contractor in Paradise
A general contractor is the licensed professional who manages the entire construction or remodeling project, including permits, subcontractors, materials, and scheduling. In Paradise, hiring a general contractor means one accountable company handles your kitchen remodel, bathroom renovation, roof replacement, or home addition from start to finish.

Ellsworth Contractors operates as that single point of accountability for both interior and exterior work.
Timeline depends on scope. A small bathroom remodel typically takes 3 to 5 weeks, a kitchen remodel 6 to 10 weeks, and a full home addition 3 to 6 months including permits and inspections. Clark County permit approval adds 1 to 3 weeks to most projects. We provide a detailed construction schedule with your written quote so you know what to expect before work begins.

Yes, we install Toto toilets and American Standard plumbing fixtures regularly in Paradise homes. Both brands hold up well to Southern Nevada’s hard water, which makes them a smart long-term choice compared to budget fixtures that fail after a few years. We can also source Kohler and Grohe fixtures if your project calls for them.
For genuine emergencies like active roof leaks or water damage, call (888) 445-6077 and we’ll prioritize your situation. That said, most general contractor work in Paradise, like kitchen remodels and home additions, is planned construction that benefits from proper scheduling and permitting. We’ll always tell you honestly whether your situation needs emergency response or scheduled work.
We provide a workmanship warranty on all projects we complete, and manufacturer warranties cover the materials we install. Cambria countertops, James Hardie siding, GAF roofing, and Toto fixtures all carry manufacturer-backed coverage that we help you register and file if needed. The specific warranty terms for your project are included in your written contract.
Before work begins, clear the project area of personal belongings, secure valuables, and plan for dust and noise during active construction phases. If your HOA requires notification, we’ll handle that paperwork. We walk through the preparation checklist with you during the pre-construction meeting, so nothing catches you by surprise on day one.
