General Contractor in Paradise — Licensed & Insured, Written Fixed-Price Quotes

Fast, Reliable General Contractor Across Paradise

Finding a general contractor who actually understands how Paradise works means knowing the difference between a City of Las Vegas permit and a Clark County one, between a sewer tap and a grandfathered septic system, and between a standard roof and the low-slope assemblies that bake under 110°F sun. We handle all of it. From room additions off Spencer Street to detached ADUs on half-acre parcels near the Winchester border, Ellsworth Contractors scopes every project around the parcel’s actual conditions before we ever quote a number. If you’re planning a kitchen remodel, a whole-home reno, or an ADU, call (888) 445-6077 and we’ll walk the property first.

Why Ellsworth Contractors Is Paradise’s Preferred General Contractor Company

Most Paradise homeowners we meet have already discovered that their lot doesn’t play by the same rules as the house across the street. One parcel is unincorporated Clark County, the next is Las Vegas proper, and a third sits on a well and septic system that hasn’t been touched since 1972. That’s the reality of building here, and it’s why we don’t quote over the phone.

Reed Calloway built Ellsworth Contractors around a simple idea: one contractor, every system. When we scope a Paradise project, we’re looking at roof, stucco, windows, drainage, electrical, plumbing, and the county parcel map all at once. Homeowners who’ve tried juggling separate trades for a room addition or exterior replacement know how quickly that coordination falls apart. We carry the full scope so you don’t have to.

We work with 50+ named manufacturers across cabinetry, countertops, roofing, windows, doors, fencing, and hardscaping, which means when a Paradise homeowner wants Cambria countertops in a mid-century ranch kitchen or James Hardie siding on a 1990s stucco two-story, the product is available and specified correctly. No substitutions, no surprises.

Remodeling Contractor in Paradise

Remodeling Contractor in Paradise means working on homes built before modern code even existed, and we’ve scoped enough of them to know what’s behind the drywall before we open it. A typical Paradise kitchen remodel runs $14,000 – $45,000, while a bathroom remodel lands at $9,000 – $28,000. Those ranges cover the reality of 1960s ranch homes with original cast iron plumbing and 100-amp panels, where demolition almost always reveals something the previous owner never touched. We write that into the scope up front.

Mid-Century Ranch Remodels

Paradise has a huge stock of 1960s and early 1970s ranch homes on slab-on-grade foundations. That means re-piping happens through the slab or by routing new lines through walls, and the original galvanized supply lines are usually shot. We plan for it in the quote, not after the tile comes up.

Stucco Tract Home Updates

The 1990s and 2000s stucco subdivisions around Paradise need different attention: window seals fail in the desert heat, tile roofs lose granules, and the original PEX is often fine but the exterior stucco has cracks from monsoon-driven temperature swings. A remodel here is more about sealing the envelope than opening walls.

Licensed General Contractor in Paradise

Licensed General Contractor in Paradise work starts with the parcel, not the house. Most Paradise homeowners don’t realize their property sits in an unincorporated Clark County island until a project stalls at permit review. We pull the right permits from the right jurisdiction on day one, and we’re familiar with the county’s site plan requirements, septic setbacks, and well regulations before we ever quote a number. Room additions here run $45,000 – $130,000, and a garage conversion lands at $30,000 – $80,000 depending on whether the existing slab can carry the new use.

Acreage and Lot Additions

Building on an open Paradise lot isn’t the same as adding onto a tract home in Spring Valley. Setbacks change, septic and well locations dictate where you can pour a foundation, and equipment access down a long private drive changes the material haul math. We scope grading and drainage at the same time as the structure, because on an open lot the two are inseparable.

Detached Shops and ADUs

Paradise has more room for outbuildings than most people expect, and a detached ADU is one of the smartest uses of a half-acre. ADU construction in Paradise runs $90,000 – $220,000 depending on size, site conditions, and whether the existing septic system can absorb the added load. We verify that before quoting.

Trusted Brands We Service in Paradise

Ellsworth Contractors carries authorized relationships with manufacturers Paradise homeowners actually ask for: KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinetry, Cambria and Silestone countertops, plus roofing lines from GAF, CertainTeed, and Owens Corning. What that means for you is a real material selection, not whatever the supplier happens to have in the yard. Need Cambria quartz on a kitchen island off Eastern Avenue? We order it direct. Want Wellborn cabinets in a full-home remodel near McCarran? They’re specified, ordered, and installed by the same crew that framed the room. That’s the whole point of a single-source contractor.

Common General Contractor Problems We See in Paradise Homes

• Unincorporated Clark County parcel confusion: Homeowners file Las Vegas city permits on a county parcel and the job stalls. We verify jurisdiction first, every time, because half of Paradise exists outside the city boundary.
• Septic and well setbacks ignored until grading starts: Open-lot additions and shops often sit on grandfathered septic systems. If the foundation gets laid out before the leach field is located, you’re paying for a change order. We locate it before we design anything.
• Monsoon water intrusion on low-slope roofs: July through September microbursts hit flat and low-slope mid-century roofs hard. A roof replacement that doesn’t include proper membrane and drainage detail will leak within two seasons. We write water intrusion into every exterior scope.
• 110°F+ heat cooking sealants and stucco: Paradise’s summer temperatures accelerate sealant failure, tile slippage on roofs, and stucco cracking. Repairs done with the wrong materials fail fast. We spec high-temp sealants and correct flashing details for the desert, not for a coastal climate.
