Farrar Construction & Design

We had purchased a 1975 ranch in Palm Springs that was in desperate need of a remodel. Since our main residence was 2000 miles away, we were very concerned about how to find a trustworthy, capable contractor who could complete the work with limited supervision and direction. Obviously, cost was also part of the concern. Farrar Construction was one of the contractors recommended by our realtor. After doing online research and talking to Patrick on the phone, we decided to hire Patrick for this large project. What a great decision. I can't possibly recommend anyone higher than I would recommend Patrick. When we contracted Patrick, we had no idea that he was not only an amazing contractor, but also has an amazing design sense. There was no concern that the contractor and designer would disagree...because Patrick did both! Patrick did a great job of providing us options that addressed our design, functional and budget needs. He matched our passion for the project, and displayed an infectious enthusiasm for creating the perfect house for us. When you hire Patrick, you will get a contractor who does a lot of the work himself, and if he subs it out, he is there to supervise the other contractors. He will pay attention to every detail and won't rest until he provides a solution that not only looks great, but also functions well. I have worked with many contractors before, and I have never had this awesome of an experience. His work ethic is amazing, his design sense is spot on, and he will deliver on time and on budget. Just as importantly...he is a great person to work with.

Patrick did a kitchen remodel in a tiny condo. He had very cramped space in which to work but took it on with a smiling face. He measured, thought for no more than a few seconds and then jumped into creative visualization of what he could get in the space. He could see a practical solution almost instantly. There was no sales talk, no ifs to buts just sheer delight in getting to work and creating a masterpiece. He knew the products, their price, was able to give is a realistic quote within a couple days, with a time frame for getting the job done. We gave him a key left town for a whole 6 months, communicated via email, paid our bills, received the new keys by mail. Not a complaint, a sigh or a problem did he find or present to us, just sheer dedication a and joy in his creation and boy, did we get a delight when we returned and turned the new key in the door. The practical use if the space, the amount of stuff he got in and the color and design are a marvel. There is no one who can beat Patrick and he has such pleasant and easy to work with personality. Thanks Patrick. Mollie Wilmot Palm Springs

Patrick Farrar is an amazing fellow, he combines architectural, creative design and contracting skills in one place, and is a pleasure to work with, having great infectious enthusiasm for a project - big or small. He transformed a pokey corner mid 50's kitchen in our small condo into a modern vibrant space, with four times the storage, a fridge twice the size, and a dish washer that didn't previously exist. He did all this while we were absent, and we covered the inevitable issues arising by email and attached photographs when necessary. The remodel came in on budget, and dramatically more appealing that we had envisaged. Having one person with all round skills is absolutely the way to go for a small or medium size project. Probably saves us several $1,000's.

Patrick Farrar is exceptionally creative and razor-focussed when adhering to budgeted time and costs. In addition to his hands-on experience and ability to perform most of the different tasks within a job, he consistently works with sub-contractors of a similar work ethic and integrity. Patrick is good at communicating throughout the job, whether it's simple updates or changes that need to be made. Patrick has an inherent talent to take average-quality finishes and products and match them with better-quality products to get a high-end look for the best value possible. I have gotten maximum bang-for-my-buck when using Patrick Farrar and I've never been disappointed.

Farrar Construction was the lead contractor on a complete renovation of a 1750 sq ft condominium in Palm Springs, CA. The scope of work included raising ceiling and moving walls, complete new kitchen and two baths, new doors and windows, new tile floors and the design and construction of an ethanol fireplace.

Patrick Farrar was my contractor for an extensive kitchen remodel, along with adding recessed lighting through the dining and living area. Always willing to go the extra mile to achieve the best possible result.

Patrick Farrar was a delight to work with - very knowledgeable, experienced and full of great design ideas, suggestions and solutions! His positive attitude and pleasant, non-confrontational personality enabled him to communicate with clarity and successfully work well with others to complete the job on time. We are extremely happy with the workmanship performed and would definitely hire Farrar Construction & Design on future projects.

When i was doing a complete remodel of my home i had hired 2 contractors before finally hiring Patrick Farrar to come in and take over and correct all mistakes from the previous two. The outcome was a beautiful job, Great work, full of integrity, and the most honest guy. The work was done in a timely matter with the hosue being taken all the way down to the studs with new electrical and plumbing.... My Home turned out to be a showplace. That was 8 years ago and today i am happy to say that Patrick is nearing completion of a total remodel of my new home which is looking beautiful.

Farrar Construction & Design was highly recommended to us so we hired him to be the general contractor for our kitchen remodel. He was very hands-on throughout the entire project from the initial design all the way through to the finishing touches. He has an great eye for design, creating both a beautiful and functional space. He supervised the project closely and went above and beyond what was expected of him. We would definitely recommend Farrar Construction to anyone looking to remodel any part of their home.

It's been a decade now since I hired Patrick and his team to build out my gallery space in Palm Springs, Ca. I had a very specific concept and plan, which they executed beautifully despite challenges because of the old building that my gallery occupies. They also helped me stay within budget and work around unexpected issues that arose. Patrick was professional in all his dealings with me, and he helped me get it all completed in a timely manner. I've also had him work on other remodeling projects at my home, and I have always enjoyed dealing with him and been quite happy with the results. I will be using his expertise again soon.
