Testimonials

Ron Barney rebuilt our 6600 square foot home and guesthouse in Arcadia three years ago. We hired Ron after exhaustive research. It was the best personal and business decision we could have made. Ron is competent, fair, caring, honest, creative, and thorough. He is a master at working with competing interests and egos, and he is patient when resolving conflicts. He has confidence, yet he is a humble man. Ron’s subs respect him, and they are loyal. Ron is budget conscious, and watches the dollars as if they were his own. He makes thoughtful and reasonable suggestions during construction, even if it makes his own job harder. We give Ron Barney a ten on a scale of one to ten.

I recently had the pleasure of building a custom home with RD Enterprises and Ron Barney in the Silverleaf community in Scottsdale, AZ. I’ve worked with several other custom home builders in the past 14 years, and Ron is by far the absolute BEST. He is honest, diligent, and a real pleasure to work with. Most importantly, he delivered the most amazing home of our dreams on time and reasonably priced. If I were building another custom home I wouldn’t even consider anyone else!

We are nearing completion of a new custom home located in North East Gilbert that Ron at RD Enterprises has built for us. We chose Ron based on a strong recommendation from a friend who completed a major renovation with him a few years ago. We came in with very high expectations based on what we had been told about our builder and we have not been disappointed, in fact our expectations have been exceeded. Ron and his entire team are experienced professionals who have proven to be detail oriented and extremely capable at helping us find the right balance between design, budget, and build time. We were fortunate enough to bring Ron into the process early on and it made all the difference to have him help guide us through the design stage as we worked with the architect. He was both creative and realistic as he helped us determine what we can and cannot do. He has also been invaluable in helping us value engineer our design, he has found ways to pull off the look we want in a cost efficient way. The home RD built for us has turned out to be all that we hoped for and more – I highly recommend RD Enterprises.

When we finally decided to build our “dream home” in Gilbert, we had already toured homes in Scottsdale, Arcadia, Las Sendas, Circle G neighborhoods, etc. We had gathered a list of “best” General Contractors and toured their work. Finally, we met with and interviewed each. The clear choice for us was Ron Barney, owner of RD Enterprises. While the landscape at our 1+ acre property was mostly dirt, there stood an existing home only a few years old. We decided to design a remodel / new build process, which kept some of the existing building/foundation while adding significant space and features from the ground up. We also wanted to incorporate indoor and outdoor living, pool and water features, a tennis court and gardens, as well as numerous areas for sports and kids. We also wanted a very customized interior look and feel, with built ins, hitech options and lighting, natural light and trim, fireplaces, patios, and large gathering areas. Ron led out through the design and approval/permit process. He patiently “held our hands” through selecting finishes and the various tradesmen. He was onsite for virtually all phases and steps of the project, including on holidays and his own birthday! We saw Ron as both the professional but also willing to “get his hands dirty”. His subcontractors were clean and respectful, and the jobsite reflected his courteous approach. I would build again using Ron Barney. I couldn’t give a higher recommendation. I’d be happy to answer any questions or show my home to someone considering the process.

We are thrilled to live in this “hidden gem” of a neighborhood at the base of Piestewa Peak in Phoenix. The Phoenix Mountain Preserve is right in our backyard. Many of the homes were built in the 1960s, as was ours. Within the stunning Sonoran Desert setting, our home was in need of an extensive renovation. When we met Ron Barney, we recognized that he was an experienced contractor. It was Ron’s personal qualities that continued to influence our experience throughout the renovation. He is a trustworthy individual, and his knowledge of home renovation and construction is exceptional. Ron’s patience and sense of humor were appreciated on numerous occasions. Our inquiries, phone calls, and emails to Ron and his team at RD Enterprises were always promptly answered. We became part of the team that communicated regularly throughout the project. Although our renovation was not on as large a scale as many of Ron’s custom homes, the project was handled with a sense of importance and attention to detail. As we became acquainted with Ron’s subcontractors, with whom he has worked for many years, their high standards of quality were evident. We would not hesitate to call Ron or any of his subcontractors in the future. That is quite a statement, isn’t it? We anticipated that there might be some “surprises” during the renovation of our forty-five year old home. Ron would carefully assess the situation and would offer various options for solution. Ron and his team provided the necessary guidance for us to make informed decisions. Our home is now beautifully updated and expresses our personal taste. Moreover, every space fits the lifestyle of our active family. We highly recommend Ron Barney and RD Enterprises, Inc.
