We signed our contract with Kingdom Builders in October 2020 and paid just over $10,000 as a deposit to begin a kitchen remodel project. Shortly after receiving our deposit, representatives from the company made two brief visits to our home. After that, communication abruptly stopped. Phone calls went unanswered, and mail sent to their listed address was returned as undeliverable. We spent well over a year attempting to locate and contact the company regarding our project and deposit. Eventually, with the help of a friend, we discovered the business had moved from its Sumner, WA storefront to a location in Yelm without notifying us as customers. Based on the company's website and branding, we believed they operated as a faith-based or Christian business, which made this experience even more disappointing for our family. We were able to locate a phone number for one of the owners as well as the new business address. Multiple additional messages were left, but again, no response was ever received. A friend in the construction industry assisted us further and uncovered records -- later confirmed with the State of Washington -- showing that between 8/15/2020 and 2/4/2021, the contractor's license was suspended and there was no valid or active bond in place. As a final attempt to resolve the matter, we sent a certified letter, which was returned marked "refused." Additional calls also went unanswered. At this point, we are pursuing legal action to recover our deposit, along with costs associated with certified mailings, time spent attempting to resolve the matter, and legal fees. We provided numerous opportunities for the company to address the situation and make things right, but those efforts were ignored. Based on our experience, we strongly recommend that anyone considering using Kingdom Builders proceed with extreme caution and do thorough research before entering into a contract. Owners: Ryan Jewell Ken Jewell (sometimes misspelled in listings as "Jewel") One industry listing specifically identifies Ryan Jewell as the company representative/contact. The following email was received from the State of Washington: Dear Sir: Thank you for submitting your contractor fraud referral regarding Kingdom Builders Const LLC.

Kingdom Builders Construction - a kitchen with white cabinets and stainless steel appliances - General Contractors Near Me

These people had a store front in Sumner, under the name of Fleurish, selling some run of the mill home decor. They also ran their construction company, Kingdom Builders Construction, out of that location. My husband and I ordered a sample kitchen cabinet door to start the transaction to purchase a complete kitchen remodel. Finally got the door after much haggling to pick it up because they never returned my phone calls or texts. Don't waste your time. They moved from Sumner. Good riddance. We found an outstanding local company that aren't liars. read more

My personal experience with Kingdom Builders Construction has been GR-R-REAT. Ryan, Ken and their team have built their business on a baseline of integrity, coupled with professionalism, and a broad skill set... you can't miss when you select KBC! read more

We had a whole house remodel to do. My husband and I asked for them to give us a bid. They came back with a reasonable bid (we got several) and we got a good vibe from them that we were going to be able to work well together and that Ryan and Ken were honest men. They worked very hard to get us the house we wanted. They worked well with the designer we hired and when a couple things didn't go well (which I learned they always will) they promptly fixed things and took responsibility. I highly recommend this company. They are very good at what they do and they were enjoyable to have around. read more

I cannot say enough about our amazing experience with Kingdom Builders Construction and Ryan and Ken Jewel. My wife and I had a dream to take an older home and completely transform it. We looked at several homes and we finally found a jewel that was tucked back in this beautiful lot on almost an acre in the heart of University Place. To be honest I didn't see the potential that my wife could see, but I loved the lot and I trusted my wife's judgement so we decided to make an offer and the sellers accepted. Now we had to begin the task of finding a contractor. In all we had 6 or 7 contractors look at the scope of our project. As is unfortunately very common among contractors just getting a call back was difficult. That is until we met Ryan and Ken at the Remodeling Expo in Tacoma. They showed up when they said they would for our first walk through appointment. Immediately we felt very confident they were going to be our contractor. Our house turned out amazing. They literally transformed this old 1968 home with walls everywhere, laminate floors and old wall paper into the home of our dreams. They worked really well with my wife and all of her ideas as well as a designer we hired to help put our ideas to paper. Ryan even took my wife's description of her dream front door, drew it out on paper and found a custom door builder to make it. It is the focal point of our home as you first drive up. What makes KBC different from other contractors is their integrity. They show up when they say they are going to and they make things right no matter what. Like with any large project like ours, mistakes are going to happen. When we discovered them, Ryan and Ken were quick to figure out a solution and fix the problem. You might find a contractor that gives a cheaper bid but I can say with confidence after walking through this project that you will get what you pay for. KBC is worth every penny! read more

We met Ryan and Ken Jewel at the home remodel show. We had recently purchased a rambler with a daylight basement that was built in 1963 and needed the whole top floor remodeled. We had several bids and Kingdom Builders came in lower than the others and they also had some really good ideas for our home. They were easy to work with and made us feel like family. There were a few things that came up and they were able to find a way to fix them. We also had them redo our deck and driveway and add a covering on our front porch. Our house is now the house of our dreams and I would highly recommend them for any remodel. read more

Had them do an estimate on kitchen and bathroom remodels. We were told we would receive the estimate in 3 weeks. Here it is 5 weeks later and still waiting. We called them last week to check if maybe they had wrong email address, but did not receive a call back. Very disappointed as we were initially impressed with the person who did the estimate. read more
