All reviews for C&E Builders

Erik and his crew(s) were amazing from the design consultation through the entire process of creating a new backyard with pool, water feature and spa. We highly recommend using them for your next project!

Love working with Eric and Christa. They are super easy to work with and have the best contractors in AZ working for them. Their work is phenomonial. They also have the best pricing of any contractor.

Christa and Erik were top notch for our entire backyard build. They were easy to reach with out endless questions, they stayed right on schedule and everything turned out better than we could’ve imagined. Everyone they worked with were so kind and i completely trusted them in our backyard. I’m so thankful we worked with them and we will never build anything with anyone else!!!!!

Working with Erik from C&E Builders restored our total loss of confidence in Arizona contractors. After being burned several times by contractors who don’t show up, overcharge, deliver poor quality, and never finish; we waded into the waters slowly with C&E. We started with a portion of our very large backyard project, and upon seeing the results and professionalism, we gave more and more to C&E. They installed coping, waterline tile, and glass mosaic underwater stools and accents in the pool. If you are doing a pool, reach out to them. Don’t just take the standard and pick pool tile at National Pool Tile (NPT). Use Erik and check out Meridian Pool Tile. You will get something unique for the same or less money. Our pool came out amazing and doesn’t look like anyone else’s.

Considering the pool job, we used Erik for our entire landscape. Over 120 trees, shrubs, and vines, with artificial turf, travertine and LED lighting. It looks beautiful. Remarkably, almost everything survived being planted in 110 degree temps. The crew was great, everyone could communicate, and we were included in the entire process. Can’t say enough good things about our experience. We are hard people to please when big money is being spent. We are pleased. Were are now having Erik compete a ramada that was not finished by another contractor. We are hopeful and will write a supplemental review when they’re done. We are hoping they continue to achieve at such a high level for such a moderate cost.

Thanks Erik! We love our yard now.

Erik came in and rescued our project. It had stalled 2/3 from completion and he finished the job on time. Everything was as we expected. He knows how to get things done, and his crews know how to work hard and reliably. We would recommend C&E Builders to anyone, especially if you’ve been burned before!

I recently had the pleasure of working with C&E Builders on my Paradise Valley residential construction project and I could not be more satisfied with the experience. I highly recommend C&E Builders. The standards and values set and enforced by their ownership were world class.

C&E has been amazing! They completed a drop zone in our garage entryway, a backyard pergola complete with market lights and a fan, and an indoor modern glass wall. With every project, their team is courteous and professional. They were diligent about the details and made sure everything was perfect. Christa was especially helpful with design decisions. Albert and his team were fantastic and friendly. And Erik makes sure everything turns out just right. I highly recommend!

Eric and his team did outstanding work and completed on time. Each crew was supervised very well with great coordination. Was super easy to communicate with. Sent me text updates as to what crews where coming and when. He personally made visits and knew I had certain expectations that he overwhelmingly met. He went as far as adding touches that ended up making our pool project develop into over the top as his ideas enhanced the project to tie into our fabulous outdoor kitchen.
If I could have rated him 10 stars I would have given him that rating with confidence. I would recommend C & E Builders for any of your projects.

C&E just finished completely redoing our pool deck and pool. To say our backyard now looks like a resort would be an understatement. It’s a freaking oasis in our own backyard!! Their work is IMPECCABLE. The crews are respectful and detail-oriented, they use high quality materials, and do what they say they will and when they promised to do it. They left the worksite completely clean, not a single remnant of materials or dust remained. Eric, I can’t thank you and C&E enough. We’ll never work with anyone else again. You’re a freaking genius!!!

Erik and C&E provided our family with the absolutely best landscape design and execution hands down for our backyard. We have worked with other companies before- large and independent, and have always had troubles with communication and design shortcomings. When talking with Erik initially, he completely understood our vision and designed an amazing backyard that stayed within our budget. He is amazing with his communication and started and finished projects extremely quickly with high quality work. We had a few punch list items that he took care of and now our backyard is everything we dreamed of. We have a beautiful pool and spa, pergola, in ground trampoline, travertine patio and decking, and really great looking artificial turf. Erik makes sure to design something unique in his projects so you don’t get a cookie cutter project. He really takes care of his clients and stands behind his work. I highly recommend C&E and appreciate the company’s professionalism, friendliness, solid communication, and efficient, beautiful work.

Erik & Christa are absolutely amazing! I couldn’t ask for a better contractor. The pool builders I interviewed are all about the sale and you can tell C&E are passionate about what they do. The commutation from start to finish was perfect! The crew always was professional and fun to work with. You can tell they enjoy their job. I’m happy I found C&E Builders. I now have my dream back yard!

Erik & his guys transformed our backyard into a resort-style oasis! Erik gave us guidance on design & remodel of our patio & pool waterfall feature as well as lighting & stonework. His crew worked efficiently & quickly to give our entire backyard a modern update & they finished earlier than projected. Erik was knowledgeable about what features & improvements would work with the existing aesthetic, coordinating multiple crews to address each aspect, & the finished project looks incredible. He & his crew went above & beyond with caring for our property - they were very professional & always cleaned up each evening before they left & were respectable of parking issues & took care of the premises like it was their own. We are so happy with everything they did for us & we highly recommend their services & skills for any yard/pool improvements.

We couldn't be more pleased with C&E Builders. I usually don't write reviews, but needed to do so this time. Communication with Erik has been exceptional from day one. Very upfront with pricing and the process. Any time I had a question, someone addressed it. No surprises, which with most contractors is to be expected. Jose did an amazing job creating a vision for our property. He took my ideas, expanded on them and we couldn't be happier. This company uses all of their own crew for everything. This allows them to be on time, every day and they see thing thru from start to finish. They showed up at 6am on the day of our closing and worked practically every day to get us to a point to where we had grass in the back for my pups. They finished in the time frame we were given and they came in on budget. They are worth every single penny!!

C&E just finished our project. The yard is absolutely beautiful and the process was about as flawless as it gets. We have done many projects with great contractors. C&E stands out based on ideas, communication, personality, management and overall “amazingness”. We highly recommend C&E. Erik, Jose and the team over delivered!

I can't start to tell you how AMAZING C&E Builders were to work with. We have hired contractors in the past and have had literally the worst experience with previous contractors that didn't finish jobs and have left us high and dry. Erik and his crew were the BEST we have ever dealt with. I can't thank them enough for our pool, outdoor kitchen, waterfall and media wall that they built for us. It turned out unbelievably better than we could of EVER imagined and I can't thank Erik and his crew enough. We chose C&E because of their track record in really listening to what clients wanted. Erik's communication has been TOP notch. The crew has been very patient throughout the whole process with us. I can't tell you how much that meant to us, due to bad experiences with other contractors. I would HIGHLY recommend Erik and C&E builders to anyone. As a company, they really care about your vision, and are very genuine in their approach to making your dream yard come true! 5 Stars all the way!!! Thank you again C&E Builders!

Our experience with most building contractors had been “horrible at best” until we worked with Erik Helm and the team at C&E Builders. This is how an experience should be when you hire a contractor to work on your home. We installed a large, four-panel sliding door in the rear of our house which required removal of a French door, fireplace and window. The challenge was that we wanted to physically remove 3 of 6 weight-bearing pillars on our patio and replace the remaining three wrapped-stucco pillars with new, modern, sleek steel. This was no problem for C&E, and the final combination of the new door, with tongue and grove ceiling, all new lighting, Sonos audio and no pillars transformed a dated, builder stock patio into a spectacular outdoor living space. What I most appreciated was that from start to finish the communication was strong. I understand that our job was not the only one that C&E was working, but Erik was always accessible and accountable if we had a question or concern. The crew started on time, showed up every day, and if they were going to be even 15 minutes late, Erik let us know in advance. We had a schedule, a plan and a budget, and the job finished within spec to the final detail. Workers were specialists, and each one knew what his role was each day. There was no standing around or down time - the total job operated like a well-oiled machine. Each morning Erik was personally on site to survey the job, provide us with a status report and answer questions. They even tolerated my father-in-law standing around the job all day, critiquing the work and making suggestions. At the end of the day, the work was excellent, the price was appropriate, and the experience was low stress. We were so happy with C&E that I am already having Erik quote us for two more projects.

We are so happy with the work of C&E Builders!

Our first impression of C&E Builders was from seeing them on our street as they were working on a remodel for our neighbor on their backyard updates and I was impressed with how their staff conducted themselves with neighbors. They were friendly and kept our street clean.

We had remodeled our backyard 2 years earlier and we were not happy with some of the shortcuts our previous contractor had used that we questioned during the process. On a whim, we had Erik look at our backyard and he said the same things we had been feeling. After talking with us for just a few minutes, he brought over samples within a couple days that were beautiful and created the vision we had hoped for with our previous contractor.

We quickly signed the quote and due to a delay on another project, they were able to start right away. Erik and his team were able to install a sump pump, fix the waterline tile, stone, countertops, correct the previous mistakes of the previous contractor and really make our backyard stand out! Erik suggested the LED fireplace versus our previous gas fireplace that was not attractive and a danger with kids. The finished product is so much better than we envisioned.

When there was an issue with a countertop, Erik apologized for the delay, but wanted it to be right. In the past, contractors we've had have tried to gloss over imperfections, but not Erik. He treated our backyard like his own and really went above and beyond.

The whole process was quick and his team was always prompt, efficient and cleaned up every day. We were very impressed with his team as you could tell they really took pride in their work and did it right the first time. They were the best we have ever had the pleasure to work with at our home. We highly recommend C&E Builders and our only wish is we would have found them earlier and they would have done our whole backyard from start to finish.

Erik and his entire team were amazing from start to finish. They worked fast, efficient and did not sacrifice quality to do so. I am more than pleased with how our Billagio resort backyard turned out, and could not recommend Erik and his guys more. Satisfaction guaranteed!!

We have had our pool for a little over a year and still very pleased with C&E Builders. From the design stage, Eric and Jose did an amazing job working up a plan for our backyard which looked incredible. After award, they started almost immediately and the C&E crew worked quickly and efficiently to get the project completed in a timely fashion. Jose and Eric were out at the site almost every day to check on the progress and ensure everything was going smoothly. Any warranty concerns after the job was completed have also been addressed super fast with no issues at all. Overall I highly recommend Christa, Erik, Jose and the rest of the team for any pool or backyard projects!

I found C&E after they did a beautiful remodel on my friends house. I was managing an entire reno on a new house I bought myself but knew the exterior project would need a highly experienced team. Within 90 days C&E remodeled my entire pool, adding to it in size and adding a spa and lounge areas, along with all new pool equipment and materials. They demo'd a large portion of our desert yard and expertly graded everything to install a beautiful pickleball court for us with landscaping surrounding and modern fencing to match the existing style of the house. Their team was so polite, friendly, efficient and clean that we used them to take on the front yard project as well. They installed several thousand square feet of pavers to the dirt driveway. They also installed tile and limestone in several areas for me (including helping inside the house when my tile guys were running behind). They brought in trees, plants, lights, irrigation, pots, etc to both the front and the back for the finishing touches. We were so impressed with C&E at every turn. Our new house is stunning and the design and craftsmanship now does justice to the beautiful mountains surrounding us. I can't recommend this team enough!

Erik did a project around my pool over 13 years ago. With the AZ sun and heat it was time to renew and refresh. Erik did such an outstanding job the first time that I wanted him to do this job again. I checked my records and found his original invoice. As this was not his primary business anymore, he took on this job because I was a repeat customer. This speaks to his character and how he values his customers. His crew once again did an outstanding job. They arrived on time, were clean and courteous and most of all were precision detail quality focused contractors. Yes I would rehire him and his crew again!!!
