Everything went well. Schedule went a little long but we expect that from most re-modelers. Good quality materials and management. Cost was on the high side including extras but I guess you get what you pay for.

They didn't do a very satisfactory job. I had used them before. There was a problem with the guy that was the supervisor of the job. The siding job I did with them wasn't even good. They didn't finish it. There were somethings that they did well. It depended on which painter came out. There was one that was very messy and one that was very neat. I still have paint splattered on different things that I have to clean-up. They took woodwork off and then didn't put it back. I ended up with all of the woodwork in the garage and I'm not sure how to put it back. It's not usable. That didn't work out well. The guy that took over the project tried to get things worked out. My insurance paid for it, but they were higher on price. When they said that they were going to be here, they generally were.

My house was damaged due to a fire. Greater Dayton was brought in by ou insurance company to secure our house the day of the fire. We chose to let the rebuild and remodel our house. My biggest problem with Greater Dayton was a lack of communication within their company. When we told them the finishes we wanted, the information was not communicated to the person ordering the items. This did not happen with every single item, but definetly happened too often. We felt like we had to call, email, or text them daily to make sure the house was finished the way we wanted. The Greater Dayton employees were all very nice to us. I have been told that the communication breakdown will be fixed within the company. If that happens, this will be an awesome company to work with.

Brad showed up on Monday morning as promised. Told me his plan and the work was completed on time and on budget. Rooms were vacuumed and wiped down. Great job!

They came to do the work when they said they would and finished in a timely manner. They cleaned up as they worked so there was no debris left behind.

The project manager came to the house within 24 hours and arrived on schedule. He quickly assessed the damage and what would be needed to correct it. The contractors who performed the actual work were always on time and extremely skilled and professional. Greater Dayton Construction has done work for me before and is my first choice when work is needed that is beyond my abilities.

Dave Sisson, proj. manager, personally ensured timely, quality work. Even took his own time to help move furniture back into place. Awesome.

Starting out they were very responsive until the sale was made. After that the communication was extremely poor with the construction manager. He would show up periodically while the workers were on the roof but did not keep us updated on the work on when they would be coming out.
After the work was done we had a few strong rains and the ceiling started leaking. It came through the roof and the attic and all the way into our family room. The ceiling is now cracked from the leak. When we had them out (multiple times) they blamed us for the leak and told us that they were not responsible for the wood paneling under the roof shingles during the roof replacement - only the shingles. Even though when we were sold the roof we were promised by the sales department that any old wood would be replaced (and there were even some wood sheets they had available on the site that they did not use). After the fact they told us we would have had to ask for them to be replaced and it would have cost extra.
This went on for months and they came out multiple times but certainly didn't seem in any way like they wanted to make it right. They were more interested in putting it back on us as if it was our fault. I have never been so unhappy and insulted by a service provider in my life. I would never hire them for a job nor would I recommend them to anyone for any job.

Response from Greater Dayton Construction Group
"In review of the job noted above, the individual’s that were employed with Greater Dayton Construction either; designer, sales or supervision are no longer employees of Greater Dayton Construction. As the Director of Residential Construction I was given this Angie’s List Review to research and respond. Respecting the [member name removed]’s comments, the time that has lapsed plus the individuals who are no longer with Greater Dayton I can only offer the changes since 2005/06. Both ownership and management felt the need to restructure and refocus the Building and Remodeling Division years ago. Their first step in accomplishing this was a new position; Director of Residential Construction. We have made significant changes to our staff and our processes. Along with the internal changes we have worked to address our vendor and sub-contractor base. From the selling of our projects through our production concluding with our punch out process we have reset all “expectations” internally and externally focusing on how it can best impact our client’s experience. What I can say and feel quite strong about are the positive changes and refocussing that have taken place. Our goal as a company is to make every client a customer for life. I apologize for the inconvenience we may have created and wish I could have addressed the topic personally at the time the work was being experienced at the [member name removed]’s residence. Sincerely, Dan Brower"

Everything went well and the finished product looks great. We've only run into minor snags with the carpet portion of the repair but Greater Dayton has been very responsive and professional with addressing our concerns and getting the snags fixed. This was a great company to work with and the crew was professional and courteous. I would definitely recommend them and I plan on using them in the future for other home improvements/remodeling.

Contacted the company on Oct 23 for an appointment which was set for Oct 28. Company called to confirm the day before. Designer/project manager arrived on time and was equipped to answer questions, take measurements, incorporated my design choices. Set date for review of initial design follow-up meeting in a timely manner. Provided references of recent work and offered more if we need to see them. I had been dealing with another local contractor who has been jerking me around for more than 6 months so I was impressed by the professionalism of Greater Dayton.
