West University Neighborhood Association

Vendors List

(March, 2007)

Most homeowners in the West University neighborhood find it necessary to hire professional services to help rehabilitate their homes. Even the most handy of us have some tasks that we can’t or won’t do. But hiring the wrong person can end up costing hundreds if not thousands of dollars for a botched job. How do you know who to trust?

The vendors listed below have been recommended by at least one of your fellow members of the West University Neighborhood Association. Some of them are your neighbors. These vendors are not necessarily recommended by the West University Neighborhood Association. Please check their references and contact the Arizona Registrar of Contractors for more information.
