"John was quick to call back and come out for the estimate. He accompanied the workers and worked alongside them the day our roof was done. They were punctual, professional and wonderful with the cleanup. John himself in addition to being a reliable professional is also very personable. The price was fair and reasonable. The roof looks awesome. We would recommend him and his crew to anyone and definitely hire them again should we need anything additional done for roofing or when we decide to have siding done."

"He came out the same day I called to give an estimate he was very friendly and professional. he had to order the parts. he kept in contact letting me know when the pats were ordered, when they came in and when he picked the siding up. We ran into some rain delay, but once again the handyman kept in contact letting me know he wouldn't be able to work that day and when he would finish the job. He accidentally hung the awning to low, but he came out that night to take it off so I could get in and out my house he came out the next day and not only fixed the awning problem but replaced the siding that had holes in from the screws. I will definitely be keeping this handyman number in my phone and will recommend him to anyone looking for a handy man

"Loay Jabbar provided the information I needed quickly and clearly. I immediately signed up for full coverages for our two homes because of the discounts offered and because of the quality of service that Loay is saying and promising Choice Home Warranty provides to its customers. I have bad experiences with other home warranty companies so I am hoping I found the best company that would deliver the best service."

"Ken and his employees along with his subs performed work that was of good quality.  Ken will listen to what you need done.  He understands what you are trying to accomplish and is patient with any frustrations you might have.  Ken will file the appropriate permits and plans with your city.  Ken is very polite and he will also go back and fix something that may not have turned out the way you wanted.  He was able to completely hide a cable wire behind the siding (after the siding was already done) that is now much better looking than before.  Stay patient, there might be a few delays, but Ken will come through.  His prices are very good and the materials are good quality."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

Assess your property for home building potential by checking local zoning rules and floodplain maps. Look for poor surface drainage or visible soil cracking, as Canton clay soils demand specialized foundation engineering. Confirm that the lot has access to municipal utilities or supports a septic system. For additions, inspect older structures for outdated wiring or hazardous materials. A local professional will evaluate these factors to ensure your OH property is suitable.

Helpful?

After finishing home building in Canton, finalize all inspections to secure your certificate of occupancy. Verify that all utility connections are active and approved by local providers. Review the property grading to ensure water flows away from your foundation. Test your sump pump system to prepare for wet spring weather. Finally, update your property tax assessments, file for applicable OH tax exemptions, and secure all warranty documents from your contractor.

Helpful?

Canton experiences cold, snowy winters and wet springs, which heavily impact home building schedules. Contractors must excavate footings deep below the frost line to prevent shifting. Builders rush to get homes weather-tight by fall to avoid pouring concrete in freezing temperatures. Spring rain creates muddy sites and high water tables, making proper drainage and sump pumps essential. Your home must also feature robust insulation to meet OH climate requirements.

Helpful?

When starting home building in Canton, you need a team of certified specialists. General contractors oversee the entire project. They hire specialized tradespeople for specific tasks. Expect to see excavation experts handling the local clay soils, followed by concrete professionals pouring the foundation. Framing, roofing, and masonry contractors build the structure. Finally, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and insulation professionals finish the interior to meet OH building standards.

Helpful?

Local professionals start home building projects by evaluating soil conditions and floodplain risks. Next, they prioritize deep foundation work and waterproofing to withstand OH freeze-thaw cycles. Framing comes next, built to support heavy winter snow loads. Contractors then complete plumbing, electrical, and HVAC rough-ins before adding required insulation. Finally, builders prioritize making the structure weather-tight before winter arrives, finishing the remaining interior systems and final inspections afterward.
