The Great Garage Company

Their communication is wonderful. Our calls were answered or returned within 15 minutes. We know well ahead what and on what day work was being done. Everthing was well supervised. The workers were great. Competent and professional. We were glad we selected a great company to build our garage

Wonderful experience with the great garage company! Excellent communication, advice and follow up. We absolutely love our new garage.

As the name suggests - Great company! We contacted them to construct a shed but what we got was an amazingly well constructed, awesome looking outbuilding! Exactly what we visioned. Fantastic contractors on all phases of construction and outstanding communication throughout. Highly recommend!

We are incredibly happy with our new garage. Great Garage Company was fantastic to work with throughout the process. Great communication, very reasonable, talented tradespeople, competitively priced. Highly recommend.

Excellent experience. A family run business that works with you to help you get what you want for a reasonable price. Great communication and built quickly. We highly recommend the Great Garage Company!

After numerous quotes and months of consideration, we selected the Great Garage Company for our project and we could not be happier. Like every project, ours had a few unexpected twists along the way. The team at Great Garage Company helped us navigate every scenario and make the best decisions for the longevity of our home. They understand projects of this magnitude represent huge investments for families, and they treat their customers accordingly. The work was excellent and the team could not have been nicer or easier to work with. We would recommend to Great Garage Company to anyone.

It was a great experience. Communication, quality, professionalism and at reasonable price.

They did a great job and will refer them to anyone who needs a new garage. They were very professional and handled all the details with the city, along with carefully coordinating their work with the cement contractor that poured the pad and the new driveway. I also appreciated to constant communication throughout the process.

Very professional. Walked me through entore process and included me along the way, even having me join them at the architecture review meeting with the city. Would highly recommend.

Very happy with the finished garage. All contractors were efficient, skilled and courteous. Great Garages does it right!

I never thought I would love a garage so much! Every part of the planning and building of our garage by the Great Garage Company was done with precision and everything was done to our specifications and at the exact time and day they said they were going to do it. Every crew they had was very good, and even explained to me what they were doing and other details while they were working. Even the city inspector told me how precise the Great Garage Company is in doing their work. We have had our garage for 6 months now and my favorite thing is hitting the button to open up the garage and walking out there into our brand new structure. It was truly a pleasure working with the Great Garage company, they answered every question we had and even came back and leveled out the dirt around the garage and put patio stones down that had been removed. A plus 100% job all the way!

Excellent! John and The Great Garage Company listened to my requests and completed drawings and specs to match my requirements. They worked thru the city to get approvals. The subcontractors they use are all very good and the demolition and construction went very well. Concrete installation and finishing was wonderful. Products they used, such as siding, garage door and garage door opener were very good quality. I am very happy with the finished product.

I chose The Great Garage Company because of their very impressive customer service reputation. Unfortunately, my experience was far from what I expected based on the reviews I had read. On August 15, 2018 Jon Keeney came to my home and I signed my contract with The Great Garage Company. He informed me that they were backed up and it would be a little while before they could start the project. Little did I know on that day how long I would have to wait to finally have my new garage completed. On October 6th the demolition crew finally arrived to tear down my old garage. I thought to myself, great my garage should be done by the end of the month (as Jon had told me it was a 2-3 week project). Well, nobody showed up again until October 25th. On that day the cement was completed. It wasn't until November 7th that the garage was actually built. That's right, it took 4 weeks for them to even get it built and I still needed siding,electricity and a door! On the day of the build I realized Jon had never given me my permit, so I texted him to let him know. He said he would give it to me when he came by that night for payment of the build. I found it odd that I would have to ask for such an important document, but he did not seem concerned.( I later came to the conclusion that the only thing he was concerned about was getting paid) That night I complained that his workers were throwing their cigarette butts in my yard. I was told that they are guys and they are just going to do it , he has told them about it before but they don't listen. That response is inexcusable!!!! If your workers can't respect people's property get new workers. The siding on my garage was put on on November 11th and the door on November 14th. The electrical was started on November 14th and completed on the 19th. It took 6 weeks to complete a simple 2 car garage. I had complained to Jon multiple times about how long the project was taking. He admitted to me that he tore my old garage down too soon and that they "panicked. " I find there to be no excuse for this as The Great Garage Company has been around long enough to know how to schedule their projects. Jon told me he was sorry but his apologies didn't seem genuine. There appeared to be no real concern on his part that I was without a garage for 6 weeks. I'm not sure how they got their reputation but I will not be recommending them to anyone. They should drop the word Great from their name as they, simply put, are not.

Of the three quotes we got Great Garage was the highest, but we went with them because we felt more confident that they would deliver a higher quality product than the others. Good decision. The price we paid was exactly what was quoted. Demo and construction were delayed a bit because of the unusually wet summer, but they were always here when they said they would be. The different crews (demo, concrete, carpenters, roofing, electrical, siding) were punctual, and performed quality work and kept a clean work area. Great Garage’s project manager, Jon Keeney, kept the project moving along and communicated well with us throughout. He was a joy to work with, and was only a phone call away when we had questions. We highly recommend Great Garage Company - and Jon if you can get him!

Everything went great, wonderful company, from start to finish.

John D'Amico was very professional, and offered a number of options. He, his workers and all of his subcontractors (demo guys, roofers, electricians) were punctual, polite and competent.

It went very good. Took a little bit longer than I anticipated, but everything went great. They did a good job. They were professional and they cleaned up after themselves.

Great Garage is a real specialty operation, and they totally know how to build garages. VERY responsive and efficient. Came and finished as promised. Cannot imagine a better builder.

I had gotten several estimates from different providers and Great Garage was competitive in price.  The other quotes also didn't include the automatic doors or the vinyl siding.   <br /> Some of the plots in Berea are somewhat smaller than in other places, and many of the homes were built with only small, one-car garages.  Tom D'Amico was great.  He walked us through the process, figured how with a two-foot variance we could fit in a two-car garage and arranged the variance meeting with the city and attended it with us.  He was able to keep me informed through texts about where in the process we were, i.e. permits, drawings, etc.  He even set us up financing  with the county's low-interest HELP loans http://blog.cleveland.com/metro/2009/08/cuyahoga_countys_subsidized_ho.html <br /> Once the work started it went quickly.  A team removed our old garage one day.  The next day another team came out and removed the old concrete.  A few days of damp weather delayed the new concrete pour, but in a few days they came back and poured the concrete.  We had to wait for that to set before anything else happened.  But as soon as it set enough, another team hand-carried the materials and laid them out (the concrete hadn't set quite enough yet to bear the weight of vehicles).  The garage went up quickly.  Within a few days the siding and the door were added. <br /> The only glitch was that the electrician had a family emergency, so he came in to hook up the electricity after the electric door had been installed.  When he came a few days later (which was fine with us) we found the electric door was not operating properly. Because there was no electricity available when the door was installed, the workers had no way to check their work.  I texted Tom about this and he responded immediately.  After coming to reprogram the doors himself, it turned out we still had problems to a day later he sent another team to replace the main part of the unit.  Everything works beautifully now  I would say that even this minor problem says a lot of good for the company.  They responded quickly and made good.  <br /> I would highly recommend the Great Garage Company to anyone who asked. <br /> Steve DiPerna <br /> Berea, Ohio <br /> <br />

They did a great job and I love the end result.

From the beginning to end I cannot say enough about the great service and professionalism and the quality. The package I received thoroughly explaining the process, the quote was detailed and work and quality choices explained is simple terms, etc. Tom was always prompt, friendly and very helpful. I painted the garage myself and had an opportunity to really see the work close up and I found the quality of workmanship of the building was amazing (all the joints lined up perfectly). In my experience in remodeling when selecting a contractor the and quot;mid priceand quot; person seems to be the best (that is what the Great Garage price was). But more important is the professionalism and follow through that makes the experiences seamless. <br />

<p>  Met with John D'Amico initially who explained in detail our options and the company's method of performing the job. Once my wife and I selected a design and approved the work to be done we sign a contract and received a final price. John returned several days later with a bound prospectus (very impressive). This detailed the steps to be taken in completing the job. I must say that they adhered to each step throughout the process. We were never left guessing what was next. John was always available whenever we had a question. The final product was beautiful. I must say this was the best construction experience I have ever had. We have enjoyed our new garage and driveway for several months now without a problem. Even the cement driveway came through this tough winter without any problems. We couldn't be any happier. Thank you John and your crew!!!</p> <br />

This review is late, as I thought I had already done it. But nine months later, I am still enjoying the benefits of this company's work. <br /> Everything went quite well except for one or two minor communication lapses which were quickly corrected. We felt that the job was well-designed and professionally executed. We are very happy with it; our neighbors have commented on how nice it all looks. Designing and thinking everything through is the strength of this operation. Give Tom D'Amico credit for that. Friends have had similar work done that was unsuccessful because it was not thought out ahead of time. <br />
