Anthem Homes

Did damage to our house.  Made two failed attempts at installing windows level.   Created water damage to ceiling due to lack of care when installing flashing.  Failed to rectify mistakes and did not complete rubber roof installation.  HVAC people arrived around 7 or 8pm on a weekend.  One was smelling of alcohol.   Eventually, after seeing such poor workmanship, we asked Tony McCleery, the owner of Anthem, to fix mistakes and we would pay him, but we would not allow him to perform any remaining work listed on contract.  The workmanship was so poor and unprofessional, we did not want our home damaged any further.  He ignored our instructions.  Instead of fixing what he had damaged, he declined and started other items on the contract.  Our new contractor asked his workers to leave, and I had to call the Worthington police to have them removed from the property.  A building inspector told us it was the worst work he had ever seen performed.   We agreed to a mediation with the BBB.  We were willing to pay him for what we asked to be fixed, but he wanted all or nothing.   He had received $2000 at the start of the job.  To cap it all off, Tony McCleery put a lien on our home because he felt that we should have paid him for the remaining work listed on the contract. 
Avoid this contractor.

It did not go well; workers who did the work - were NOT the person who pulled the permit.  were they licensed in The City of Columbus, I do not know. 
When we checked the work in the basement, there were PVC pipes poking through the already low doorway.  There needs to be a non-water test, I believe, done on their work before water goes through the pipes.  They need to have us present and we will have another plumber available at that time - because this step is crucial.  We have our final coats of paint and do not want any water problems requiring drywall or paint re-do.
They have not provided a drain off of separate floors down to the basement  as agreed upon (check with my husband) so that when heat is turned off/down during the winter, that the pipes will not freeze and burst.  We do not even have a toilet that has been plumbed for our workers or for ourselves; plumbers usually provide that convenience.  It has been over one year and while I have had Stage IV Breast Cancer, I have been the one initiating GETTING THIS JOB DONE.  Tony sent me an email, on a personal note, I have two daughters, something about his resources - I responded that we lost our one and only daughter and putting resources aside, we still need the original contract fulfilled.  The contract states: INSTALL FIXTURES, FINISH HARDWARE.  FINISH HARDWARE, AS WELL AS TUBS, SINKS, ETC. TO BE SUPPLIED BY OWNER.  I personally ran out to get the refrigerator water box that goes into the wall for the plumber - the day he required $600 - and he never put it in. 
Even the bank who referred Tony McCleary has tried to get Tony to respond to finishing the plumbing.  Excuses, excuses, excuses - the fact is TONY required too much up front in draws and doesn't want to finish on the margin of the contract that is left for that.
So, no,  it has not gone well; I will take it all back if they finish.

Excellent service.  They came in and one day and did the job professional.  I did not know that they were there.  Cleaned up as they went. I would recommend Anthem Homes to anyone.

Slow.... many late and missed days due to one reason or another; took 2-3 weeks longer then originally informed. However, Tony is very nice and I feel he really does mean well; many just try to sale and not show interest.

Excellent!! The crew started the day after the contract was signed and had the new roof and part of the new trim done over the weekend. The rest of the trim was done as soon as the weather allowed. I felt Tony was honest and did not try to over-sell. The pricing was the lowest quote we received, and normally we would have gone with a middle-quote, but we really felt Tony knew his stuff, and made an excellent decision in choosing his company!!
