  • Dana Ast

    “I hired Dickinson General Contracting two months into working with another contractor on my home renovation. The project had gone downhill quickly and it was becoming apparent that this contractor could not follow through on his promises. Upon the initial consultation with the owner, Tyler Dickinson, I felt very comfortable with bringing him in to help save our renovation. The entire Dickinson General Contracting team was extremely knowledgeable, hard working, and honest. Not only did they follow through on every thing promised, they went above and beyond to make this process as easy as possible for us. They performed a wide range of jobs for us, from painting, tiling, and finish work to electrical and plumbing. I was extremely impressed with the quality of work performed every step of the way and I will never hire another contractor on the Big Island again!!”

    “When choosing to build our dream home in Kona, Hawaii, we also chose our dream builder. Tyler & Diandra Dickinson were our choice due to the details they helped provide in every decision in making our home perfect. We were kept up to date on anything and everything that was being done. They were alway easy to get in touch with when we had questions and the answers were prompt and correct, as we were 4000 miles away throughout the construction time. Their office staff are top notched, their men in the field were all very professional & polite . Choosing Dickinson Contracting to build our home was the best decision we ever made.”

  • Scott Ast

    “Dickinson General Contracting has been our "go-to" on several projects. Right out of the gate, Tyler showed himself to be truly insightful, competent, and skilled; all while remaining extremely respectful of other contractors (even when immediately noticing the disaster that one had created in our situation). He has the utmost integrity, has been willing to work alongside different budgets for different projects, and has done excellent work on our projects, as well as many others we have seen. We so appreciate them, and highly recommend Dickinson General Contracting!”

  • Laura Conrad

    “Tyler Dickinson built us a stunning house in Kohala Waterfront. We had a steep hill lot which was really challenging. He was awesome to work with, a true problem solver and great communicator.”

  • M Klein

    “We have had many homes built over the years but Dickinson, Tyler and his crew as well as the subs, have been the best and easiest to work with. Every project has hiccups and problems but Tyler magically made them disappear, not an easy feat. Would definitely without question build with them again anywhere!”
