Get matched with top brick or stone siding: installers or completely replacers in Mentor, OH

"Pat was very responsive and did an excellent job repairing our front steps. Replaced a broken sandstone step, rebuilt a portion of the brick and tucked pointed the rest. Very happy!"

"The Renew Team was excellent. Very professional and honest. Did a great job on my siding upgrade. Would recommend 100%"

"Went great! Gary thoroughly inspected and swept each chimney. Showed up on time. Provided advise on how to run each fireplace properly. Would not hesitate to hire again."

"They returned my initial phone call within a day. Appointment was scheduled at noon on a Saturday and they showed up at exactly noon. Whole repair took only 25 minutes. They were fast, efficient, and professional. <br /> Our house is 85 years old and had the original damper that needed to be removed. They installed what's called a Locktop damper which sits at the top of the chimney. There is a steal cable that you use to open the damper from inside the fireplace box that is attached to the damper at the top of the chimney. The damper springs up when open and comes completely down covering the chimney when closed. <br /> They also took the time to let me know that the masonry work on the chimney looked pretty good except for some cement at the very top which he said isn't a big deal and could wait until spring. <br />"

"We hired Koontz Construction to replace the front stoop of our 1920’s Cleveland Heights house. Our stoop was larger and more complex compared to those on most other homes in the Heights and the job was made even more complicated because we wanted to incorporate into the top some granite slabs that match granite I’ve installed on a side porch and the rear entrance to the house. Koontz did a beautiful job; they weren’t fazed by our unusual and very detailed requirements for how various elements of the stoop, like the mortar and the pattern of the brick, should look (in part to match the rest of the house) and they did much more work on constructing the foundation and interior structure of the stoop than I had expected. This included pouring a foundation under the entire structure, not just under the walls which I noticed another company doing a few houses down from us while Koontz was working on our project. The crew was courteous and professional throughout and the owner was meticulous in his craftsmanship and kept us well-informed of their work schedule. On top of all of this, their price was slightly lower than two competing bids I had solicited. As ‘icing on the cake’, while they were working on our stoop, I asked if they might also replace several sections of badly heaved (due to tree roots) front sidewalk. They agreed to add this to the scope of the project for an additional $1100, about half the price I was quoted last year for this same work. It was, of course, more cost-effective for Koontz Construction because they were already involved in concrete work at the house, but they did an excellent job on the sidewalk, too, elegantly curving it around a large tree to minimize damage and perfectly matching the finish to the remaining sidewalk slabs. I highly recommend Koontz Construction!"

"Ohio Home Improvement recently completed a full remodel of the primary living areas in our home. The scope included a full kitchen renovation (including moving walls), installing new hardwood floors, new lighting, adding new entryways with pocket doors, window and base trim, and of course painting throughout. The results are nothing short of mind-blowing! Mike, the owner, was phenomenal to work with from day 1, helping us design and visualize exactly what we wanted, and needed, to turn our “house” into our “forever home”. He leads by example, with an honest and true desire to improve the lives of his customers, and treated us more like friends than clients. Once construction began, the amazing crew, led by our project manager, Shawn, showed up for work every day of the 3 month project on time and ready to go. They met with us daily to discuss progress and resolve any questions or concerns that came up throughout the course of the project. We were very impressed with the level of detail and thought that went into every decision made. They are true professionals and their craftsmanship is unmatched. We have worked with several different contractors in the past with varying degrees of success and satisfaction. But in OHI, we’re confident we’ve finally found our go-to contractors, and partners, for all future projects!"

"Called for an estimate and they came out within two weeks.  From estimate to installation it was another two weeks.  Two men came out removed the old steps, installed new cement base blocks for steps to rest on and then installed the steps.  They carefully measured and leveled the installation as well as caulked exposed seams.  Very professional job.  New steps are much easier to use than old ones.  Would highly recommend. <br />"

"July 1, 2015 <br /> To Whom It May Concern: <br /> I first found TJ Faranacci Landscaping in late fall, 2014 while doing a search on Angie?s List.  I was in need of a reliable contractor who specialized in indoor and outdoor tile work to remove some driveway asphalt and create a small paver ?patio? in front of my front door.  Several companies I contacted before I found TJ either could not do the type of work I needed or weren?t interested. <br /> It was obvious from our first meeting that TJ was different from everyone else I?d called. <br /> He was prompt, exceptionally knowledgeable, and completely understood what I wanted. His suggestions for materials, design and installation turned out to be much better than the ones I had thought of so I was very grateful for his advice. <br /> As TJ worked I was so impressed that I asked him to replace an old timber retaining wall along the driveway and replace the entry hall tile and a step up to the living room. <br /> I couldn?t be more pleased with the result. TJ?s staff was very careful not to harm plants and cleaned up the construction area daily.  <br /> I will continue to use TJ for similar projects in the future and consider myself extremely lucky to have found him. <br /> Selene Loomis <br /> Chardon, Ohio <br /> <br /> <br />"

"As with our previous experience with Marquard Home Improvement and Remodeling, everything went very well. Always on time and there was maybe one day they didn't/couldn't work. This job took over two weeks, but we wanted the work done right and I'm very satisfied with the results. My only issue was that I didn't ask for and wasn't given any of the instructions/papers for the faucets, lights, etc. in case I need to make repairs in the future."

"Initial portion of the job was timely completed.  Completion of the driveway was a major headache.  Work was needed to complete home sale.  Commitments were frequently not kept, calls not returned and a frustrating lack of professionalism ended up spoiling what began as a hoped for positive experience. <br />"
