What we build

Services

Alpha Homes takes on the projects that need a real crew and a real plan: new homes, whole-home remodels, kitchens and basements.

Custom Homes

A new house on the lot you love.

New builds and teardown rebuilds on the east bench. Foothill lots come with slope, fault and wildfire rules, and Tanner walks the lot with you before anything is drawn.

  • New homes and teardown rebuilds
  • Engineering and geotechnical coordination
  • Permits and inspections with your city

Whole-Home Remodeling

More than one room, on one plan.

Two bathrooms at once, the kitchen plus the main floor, or the whole house. One crew builds it in the right order, so the finishes match and you are not chasing five contractors.

  • Primary baths and bathroom conversions
  • Main floors, stairs, trim and built-ins
  • One permit set, one schedule, one point of contact

Kitchen Remodeling

The kitchen everyone ends up standing in.

Open up the old layout, then new cabinets, stone counters, tile and lighting. When a wall has to come out, we handle the beam, the plans and the permit. Kitchens are often where a bigger remodel starts.

  • Wall removal and open layouts
  • Cabinets, islands and stone counters
  • Lighting, plumbing and electrical moved where you need it

Updated basement bathroom by Alpha Homes

Basement Finishing

Turn bare concrete into the best floor in the house.

Bedrooms, a bathroom, a wet bar, a theater or a full apartment. Our crew frames it, runs the plumbing, wiring and heat, gets it inspected and finishes it. A bare 2,000 sq ft basement usually takes about three weeks.

  • Bedrooms with code-legal egress windows
  • Bathrooms, bars, theaters and gyms
  • Basement apartments where your city allows them

"In March Tanner and his crew took on a project we've had on our “To Do” list for a while! We converted our two upstairs bathrooms and made a grand master bathroom, converted our upstairs laundry room into our 2nd upstairs bathroom, and updated our basement bathroom. Tanner took our visions and helped us make them all a reality! Tanner is a great communicator, which for us, is a very valuable asset!"

Why people call Tanner

Your basement, finished in about half the time.

Most contractors quote 6 to 8 weeks to finish a basement. Tanner's crew usually takes a bare 2,000 sq ft basement to finished in about 3. That is half the time or less, and it is the reason customers kept sending their friends.

Questions

Before you hire anyone.

What kinds of projects does Alpha Homes take on?
Basement finishing, kitchen remodels, whole-home remodels and custom homes. We focus on bigger projects where one crew and one plan make a real difference. Bathrooms are part of a larger remodel, not a stand-alone job.
Where do you work?
The east side of Sandy, Draper, Holladay and Cottonwood Heights. We are based in Sandy and keep our jobs close so the crew is never stuck in traffic.
How fast can you finish a basement?
A 2,000 square foot basement with bare foundation walls and nothing framed usually takes Tanner's crew about three weeks. Most contractors quote 6 to 8 weeks. Your basement may be different, and Tanner will give you a real schedule at the walkthrough.
Do you pull the permits?
Yes. Basements, kitchens with moved walls or plumbing, and whole-home remodels all go through the city. We pull the permit and handle the inspections.
How do I get a price?
Enter your ZIP code on this page or call Tanner, who will set up a walkthrough, look at the space with you and give you one clear price in writing.
