AfterConstruction Services in Summerlin South, NV
Finding a contractor who understands Summerlin South’s dual-approval process - the Clark County permit plus the Summerlin Community Association’s Architectural Review Committee sign-off - is the difference between a project that starts on time and one that stalls before the first footer is poured. Our crews work in 89135 every week, which means we know the ARC guidelines, the caliche digging, and the wind patterns that make this corner of the valley different. Call (877) 610-1318 and you’ll get a live person, not a voicemail box. Tom Barrett’s name is on every contract, and his sons run most of the crews.

Why Summerlin South Homeowners Choose Barrett & Sons Construction
Ask around The Ridges or The Paseos and you’ll hear the same thing: we quote a price, put it in writing, and don’t show up later with a different number. Tom Barrett founded the company in 1998, and he still answers his own phone. Over 29 years, we’ve built our reputation on written change orders, permits pulled on every eligible job, and a 90-Day Done Right Promise that’s printed on the contract - not buried in the fine print. If something isn’t right, one call brings Tom back to make it right.
We serve homeowners throughout Summerlin South, from the custom lots along Tournament Hills Drive to the newer Toll Brothers communities west of the 215. Our crew members are background-checked and uniformed on every visit, and they carry the Barrett & Sons name with them. That matters in a master-planned community where neighbors talk, and where the ARC expects work that meets a higher design standard than the county minimum.
Construction Services We Offer in Summerlin South
Kitchen Remodeling
We renovate kitchens in Summerlin South’s stucco-over-frame homes, from first-generation builds approaching 30 years old to newer properties still under warranty-era construction. We install KraftMaid cabinetry and Cambria countertops - brands you can look up, not mystery materials off a van.

Bathroom Remodeling
Bathroom remodels in 89135 range from guest-bath refreshes in the older neighborhoods near Red Rock Country Club to full primary-suite overhauls in The Ridges. We pull the permits, schedule the inspections, and put every allowance in writing before demo day.

Roofing
Summerlin South’s HOA standards mandate concrete or clay tile roofing, and the ARC reviews every replacement for color and material compliance. We install GAF and CertainTeed underlayment systems beneath tile that matches the community’s earth-tone palette, and we handle the ARC paperwork as part of the job.

Windows & Doors
Those strong afternoon westerlies off the Spring Mountains punish cheap seals and weak frames faster here than in the eastern valley. We install Andersen, Marvin, and Simonton windows that hold up to Summerlin South’s wind and temperature swings, with frames sized for stucco openings built in the mid-1990s through the 2010s.
Fence Installation
Fence work in a master-planned community means ARC design review before the first post hole. We handle the submittal, match approved materials, and build fences that stand up to both the wind and the caliche-hard ground that turns ordinary post-hole digging into a jackhammer job.
Driveway & Pavers
Summerlin South’s caliche hardpan runs shallow and thick, especially on the western edge near the 215. We price the breaking and haul-off separately and in writing, so the number you approve is the number you pay. Belgard and Techo-Bloc pavers are standard on our quotes.
Home Additions & ADU
Adding square footage in 89135 means navigating both Clark County building permits and Summerlin’s ARC design guidelines - setbacks, height limits, roof pitches, and approved exterior materials all get reviewed. We’ve taken dozens of Summerlin South additions through that process, and the inspector works for you, not for us - that’s why we like him.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Summerlin South
Our crews are in Summerlin South most weeks, and we typically have someone on-site within a day or two for an estimate. The neighborhoods we work in most often include:
- The Ridges - custom and semi-custom homes with tighter ARC scrutiny on exterior work
- The Paseos - mid-2000s builds where kitchens and primary baths are hitting renovation age
- Red Rock Country Club - golf-course properties with view-corridor and setback restrictions
- Reverence - newer Toll Brothers construction where warranty-era work still overlaps renovation
- Mesa Ridge - earlier Summerlin South builds now approaching 25 to 30 years old
Why Summerlin South’s Climate & Housing Affect Construction
Summerlin South sits at the base of the Spring Mountains, roughly 2,500 to 3,000 feet up, and the difference shows. Afternoon westerly winds come down off Red Rock Canyon stronger than anything the eastern valley sees, accelerating stucco cracking at window corners and working roof tiles loose years ahead of schedule. Winter nights dip low enough to freeze - occasionally hard enough to stress outdoor plumbing and fresh concrete in ways Las Vegas proper rarely experiences. Contractors who bid Summerlin South work on paper from a Las Vegas office without accounting for elevation and wind get surprised. We don’t, because we’re here weekly.
The housing stock adds another layer. Most Summerlin South homes are stucco-over-frame, desert-contemporary builds from the mid-1990s through the 2010s, with concrete or clay tile roofs mandated by the HOA. The western fringe along the 215 Beltway is still active new-home territory - Toll Brothers and Pulte are building there now. That means a contractor working 89135 has to handle both first-generation homes approaching three decades old and brand-new construction where warranty work and renovation overlap. It’s two different skill sets in one zip code.
Pricing for Construction in Summerlin South
Honest numbers, in writing, before work starts. Here’s what Summerlin South homeowners should expect for common full-scope projects:
- Kitchen remodel: $35,000-$75,000 depending on layout, cabinet line, and whether walls move
- Primary bathroom remodel: $22,000-$48,000
- Roof replacement (tile): $18,000-$42,000 depending on tile profile and underlayment spec
- Window replacement (10-15 windows): $12,000-$28,000
- Driveway paver replacement: $9,000-$24,000 depending on square footage and caliche breaking required
- Home addition / ADU: $180-$320 per square foot, plus ARC submittal and engineering
The caliche hardpan under much of Summerlin South’s western terrain adds a line-item that out-of-town bids often miss: half a day or more of jackhammer breaking before footers, plumbing trenches, or pool excavation can begin. We price it up front and in writing. We also publish four standing offers: $40 off any repair over $200, a free second opinion on any written estimate, no trip charge inside the county, and a permanent 10% discount for seniors and veterans.

FAQs About Construction in Summerlin South
A full kitchen remodel in Summerlin South typically runs $35,000 to $75,000, depending on cabinet line, countertop material, and whether you’re moving walls or plumbing. KraftMaid and Cambria are our standard brands, and every allowance is in writing before demo starts. Call (877) 610-1318 for an exact quote - estimates are free.
Yes. Summerlin South sits inside the Summerlin Community Association’s jurisdiction, which means any exterior addition, structural change, or finish alteration - roofing, windows, fences, additions, driveway pavers - must clear the Architectural Review Committee’s design guidelines in addition to Clark County building permits. We prepare and submit the ARC package as part of every eligible job.
Not unless you approve it in writing. Every scope change, every allowance adjustment, every price revision arrives as a written change order before any work happens. The allowance that isn’t on paper is a surprise waiting for a date - we don’t do surprises. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll walk you through how our change-order process works.
Plan on 4 to 9 months from design approval to final inspection, depending on scope and ARC review timing. The ARC submittal and review cycle adds 2 to 6 weeks on top of Clark County permitting, and that’s before caliche breaking, foundation, framing, and finish work. We give you a written schedule at contract, and we hold it.
On every eligible job, yes. Clark County permits and inspections are non-negotiable on our work, and we handle every step of the process - including Summerlin’s ARC submittal where exterior work is involved. The permit inspector works for you, not for us. That’s exactly why we like having him on the job.

What Summerlin South Customers Say
"The bathroom was finished on the day he said at the start, which nobody had led me to believe was possible."
- Loretta Vanterpool"His sons run the crews and they were in our house for four months. Not once did I feel I had to be home to keep an eye on things."
- Camila Fuentes"Beautiful work and honest pricing throughout. The project ran about three weeks past the estimate waiting on the cabinets, which was the supplier rather than him, though the delay was still real."
- Genevieve Ashcombe
