New Peoria, AZ Owner Build

[mbdesa]

Hi Everyone,

It's been a little while since I posted on here. I did an OB back in 2017 and met a lot of great people through this forum. I am now doing another OB, this time on my own without the help of BYOP. I was able to find a draftsman and engineering company to do all of my plans.

Here is where I am stuck. My excavator left the business, and I really do not want to buy equipment thru BYOP again as last time I discovered after the fact that they price gouged terribly. Does anyone have any recommendations for Excavators in Phoenix, AZ Area and Equipment companies?

Thanks in advance

-Matt

Do you have any other trades lined up like steel, plumbing or Shotcrete? Those trades typically know of others in the industry and may have some suggestions of contractors that they like to work behind.

Thanks for the info. I knew of Tom Nichols, but had heard mixed reviews in the past.

I used KC Nelson for the draftsman, and Ammtec for Engineering. They both were great, and I highly recommend.

Yeah, I do. I reached out to a couple tonight and did get one solid rec on an excavator. Just waiting for them to get back to me, presumably after the Holiday Weekend.

Update: We have a hole dug, plumbing in, rebar in and the electrician is here as I speak.

Planning for the inspection and Shotcrete. Does anyone have any Shotcrete Company recommendations for the Phoenix Area? I have two bids so far, but still trying to shop it. TIA

Sent DM with my shotcrete companies that bid on my job. You are making solid progress. Wishing I could start my adventure earlier.
