Fast, Reliable General Contractor Across Sunrise Manor
Hiring a general contractor in Sunrise Manor means finding someone who understands unincorporated Clark County permitting, 1960s through 1990s tract-home framing, and desert drainage rules that incorporated cities don’t face. A kitchen remodel here runs $14,000 to $45,000. A garage conversion lands between $30,000 and $80,000. We handle the full scope, from first walk-through to final Clark County inspection sign-off. Call (888) 445-6077 and we’ll schedule a walk-through on your street, not a call center.
Reed Calloway leads Ellsworth Contractors with a simple rule: open the wall before you quote the wall. That’s not marketing language. It’s the only honest way to work on Sunrise Manor’s housing stock, where original aluminum wiring, rotted subfloors, and sun-baked framing hide behind finishes that look fine from the living room.
Why Ellsworth Contractors Is Sunrise Manor’s Preferred General Contractor Company
Sunrise Manor homeowners call us because we already know what’s behind their drywall before we open it. The housing stock is dominated by single-story tract homes built between the 1960s and 1990s. That means aluminum branch wiring in 1970s builds, original single-pane windows that sweat in July, roof decks that cooked under twenty summers of 110-degree heat, and electrical panels that were undersized the day they were installed. When you tell us your cross streets near Nellis Boulevard or Hollywood, we know what to expect before the first stud comes out.
We don’t quote from a visual walk-through. We pull a permit history check on the parcel, we look in the attic, and when the project warrants it we open a section of wall during our estimate so the number you sign reflects what’s actually there. That’s why our change orders are rare and our change-order disputes are rarer. Homeowners in Sunrise Manor have told us the same thing for years: other contractors gave them a number same-day and a surprise later. We’d rather spend an extra hour on the front end than fight about a change order on the back end.
We work throughout the 89115 ZIP, from Stewart Place to Hollywood Boulevard and up toward the northeast edges of the Valley. Sunrise Manor’s response time matters less than the quality of the walk-through, because this is planned construction, not emergency work. We’ll get to your property promptly, but we won’t rush the part that determines whether your budget survives the demo.
Styles & brands we work with
Hire a General Contractor in Sunrise Manor
Hire a General Contractor in Sunrise Manor when the project touches structure, systems, or multiple trades. A room addition over a post-war slab isn’t a handyman job. A garage conversion into a rental or in-law suite triggers electrical, mechanical, egress, and possibly drainage requirements through Clark County Building. A kitchen remodel that moves plumbing and opens load-bearing walls needs stamped engineering and scheduled inspections. We act as the single accountable party on all of it. You get one contract, one schedule, one person to call.
A home addition in Sunrise Manor runs $45,000 to $130,000 depending on square footage, foundation work, and roofing integration. Garage conversions fall between $30,000 and $80,000. We write allowances into the contract with actual dollar figures, so you know what the allowance covers before we start, not after a surprise shows up in an invoice.
Room Additions and Garage Conversions
Most Sunrise Manor lots were platted decades ago with side yards and rear setbacks that leave room a modern subdivision would never allow. That makes additions practical here. What makes them complicated is drainage: much of the area sits within reach of the Las Vegas Wash and its tributary desert washes, and Clark County reviewers scrutinize grading changes harder than city reviewers do. We design to that standard from day one.
Garage conversions carry a specific caveat: the existing slab may not meet current code for habitable space. We check slab elevation relative to floodplain, we address insulation requirements, and we handle the conditional-use conversation if your conversion creates a dwelling unit rather than living space attached to the main house.
General Contractor Services in Sunrise Manor
General Contractor Services in Sunrise Manor cover full-scope remodels, additions, and exterior replacements across the entire property. That’s the point of working with Ellsworth: from roofline to paver, one contract covers it. Kitchen remodels here run $14,000 to $45,000. Bathroom remodels run $9,000 to $28,000. Roof replacements fall between $8,000 and $20,000, and we offer genuine material choice across GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral, selected by performance need and budget, not a supplier agreement.
Sunrise Manor’s sun exposure punishes roofing and siding differently than other Las Vegas Valley communities. Reflective roofing products and James Hardie fiber-cement siding are common specifications here precisely because the UV load is so aggressive. Stucco repair, window replacement from single-pane to impact-rated or low-E glass, and shade structures over west-facing walls all show up in our scope on a regular basis.
What We Actually Do on Opening Day
We walk the job with the trade leads before any sledgehammer comes out. We locate all plumbing vents, verify the panel schedule, and mark the walls we’re cutting. If we haven’t opened the wall during estimating, we open a section first thing and photograph everything. You get the photos. That’s how we establish the baseline.
When a surprise appears, we write it up as a change order with a fixed price, photos attached, and a reason code. Nothing proceeds without your written approval. That’s not process theater. It’s the difference between a signed contract and a dispute. On a 1972 ranch near Desert Inn and Hollywood, our crew opened a bathroom wall for a remodel and found original aluminum branch wiring and a rusted-out subfloor under the tub. We stopped work, wrote a change order with photos and a fixed price, and got written approval before touching another stud, then brought the rough-in up to current code and passed the Clark County inspection sign-off on the first try.

Trusted Brands We Service in Sunrise Manor
We specify and install brands selected for how they perform in this climate, not what a distributor is pushing. For bathrooms, we install Toto fixtures and American Standard plumbing for reliability under southern Nevada’s hard water. For waterproofing-to-finish tile, we build on Schluter systems, so your shower pan and wall boards are waterproofed before the first tile goes down. Sterling tub and shower units are an option when budget and timeline favor factory-finished surfaces over site-built tile.
We maintain material availability for Sunrise Manor customers by sourcing through multiple distributors, so a lead-time problem on one brand doesn’t stall your job. If a specified fixture is backordered, we bring you alternatives with pricing before we substitute. You sign off on what goes in your house.

AfterCommon General Contractor Problems We See in Sunrise Manor Homes
- Aluminum branch wiring from the 1960s and 1970s. It’s common in homes throughout the 89115 ZIP, and it fails inspection when touched during any remodel that opens walls. We plan for remediation in the estimate, not as an awkward conversation after demo.
- Failed waterproofing in original bathrooms. Shower pans built forty years ago on plywood subfloors dry-rot the framing beneath. We see rust-stained ceilings, soft floors, and mold in the cavity once tile comes off.
- Clark County drainage and grading red-tags. Desert flash-flood exposure near the Las Vegas Wash and tributary washes means additions and hardscape changes often need drainage plans that city jurisdictions would never ask for. We design to Clark County’s standard from the first plan set.
- Undersized electrical panels on homes built before modern appliance loads. A 1970s tract home with a 100-amp panel can’t carry a new kitchen, an EV charger, and an ADU. Panel upgrades show up in our scope regularly, and we coordinate the utility disconnect with NV Energy so the permit and reconnection line up.

FAQs About General Contractor in Sunrise Manor
Sunrise Manor is unincorporated Clark County, so all building permits and inspections run through Clark County Building, not a city hall. That changes plan-check timelines and triggers stricter drainage and grading scrutiny for additions, garage conversions, and any project that alters a roofline or slab. We handle the Clark County submittal process directly, including corrections and inspection scheduling, so your project doesn’t stall on paperwork. Call (888) 445-6077 and we’ll tell you what your specific project triggers before you sign anything.
Outdated wiring, undersized framing, failed waterproofing, and rotted subfloors are the big four. A 1970s tract home may have original aluminum branch wiring, a tile shower pan that leaked for decades, or plumbing that doesn’t meet current code once exposed. That’s exactly why we open walls during the estimate when the project warrants it, and why we write allowances with fixed dollar amounts into the contract. You’ll know the likely range before demo starts. Call (888) 445-6077 for a walk-through that looks inside your walls, not just at them.
We stop the affected scope, document everything with photos, write a change order with a fixed price, and get your written approval before proceeding. Because we spec material allowances in advance and we maintain distributor relationships across multiple brands, we can pull replacement materials faster than a contractor who has to re-shop the job. The job pauses for a signature, not for weeks. Then it moves. Call (888) 445-6077 if you’re pricing a remodel and want to know what we’d look for first in a Sunrise Manor home.
Yes. We pull every permit through Clark County Building, and we pull them as the general contractor of record. That includes structural, electrical, mechanical, plumbing, and any drainage or grading permits the county requires for your specific parcel, which matters especially near the Las Vegas Wash. We schedule inspections, we meet the inspector on site, and we don’t call the job done until the county signs off. Call (888) 445-6077 to talk about your addition or conversion, and we’ll map the permit path before you commit.
A fixed scope, a line-item price for each phase, allowance amounts in hard dollars, a change-order process with written-approval requirement, a payment schedule tied to milestones, a start and completion window, and proof of insurance. If a contractor won’t put those in writing, don’t let them put a hammer in your wall. We put all of it in every contract before we schedule demo. Call (888) 445-6077 and we’ll walk you through what a real Sunrise Manor remodel contract should look like.
