Arnell-West, Inc. is a Salt Lake City-based commercial construction company that began doing business in 1986. The owners, Jason Arnell and Arnold West, both Salt Lake City natives, met in the Construction Management program at Arizona State University. After completing school, both returned home to Salt Lake and worked for local construction companies. In 1986, they decided to join forces and open their own construction company, forming Arnell-West, Inc.
Because of limited capital, the company’s early work was in the tenant improvement market. Such a market helped Arnell-West be aggressive and competitive in their estimates. They learned to find good quality subcontractors to perform excellent work for the best possible price.
Arnell-West has grown from a small tenant improvement contractor to one of the leading commercial general contractors in the State of Utah. Arnell-West has been ranked by The Construction Monitor and Enterprise Magazine as one of the top general contractors in the State of Utah.
Arnell-West's philosophy is based on performance: performance of our commitments to clients, subcontractors, employees and their families; along with commitments to safety, ethics, schedules, and quality. With state-of- the-art technology, Arnell-West is able to provide strict scheduling, exceptional quality, and competitive pricing to every client. These qualities are just a few of the reasons that Arnell-West continues to excel in the construction industry.
Arnell-West has successfully completed a wide variety of construction projects in Utah and throughout the United States. With offices in Salt Lake City and St. George, Utah, Arnell-West provides superior construction services both locally and nationally.
