Recent General Contractors Reviews in Plain City
- Davy PaintingJim and Anthony did fantastic work! You can tell they take pride in the work they do. They were professional, friendly and efficient. We love our “new” house!
- Davy PaintingRoger and Anthony did excellent work, especially considering the temperature was in the 90's while they were working. I would definitely hire this company again.
- My HandymanHe did a great job and we even tried to hire him again. His estimate was fair and his carpentry skills were excellent. He is busy but we would highly recommend him.
- L & L Hardwood FloorsL&L did such quality work on the floors in our new home, which were badly pet-stained and in need of some TLC. Linda was super responsive and able to squeeze us the same week we moved in. She told us ahead of time everything we needed to expect. Nick and his grandson were the ones who worked on the floors. They made quick work of the job and we were able to be back in our home within just a couple of days. Our floors are absolutely gorgeous! I am so glad we went with L&L and would recommend them to anybody
- Davy PaintingI would definitely hire them again. Their work was impecable. They were very professional, courteous and neat. They were sincere in ensuring that I was completely satisfied. The entire process from quote to completion was an excellent experience. I would highly recommend them.
- THOMPSON BUILDING ASSOCIATESAfter drains overflowed and flooded several areas in my house, Thompson Building took care of drying everything out and repairing /replacing everything that was needed once the plumbers work was done. They were excellent to work with, kept me well informed and notified of the plan of action and then carried it out. Both the office and on-site people were knowledgeable, helpful and also answered all of my questions. I am extremely pleased with the quality of the work and I highly recommend them
- Mose Troyer Carpentry/CabinetryMose Troyer does excellent work. He is honest and easy to work with, a real professional. He easily finds solutions to difficulties. We had multiple projects that we presented to Mose. One being a utensil tray for the kitchen drawer that he built from a design that I wanted but could not find commercially. The tray fits like a glove and will last a lifetime. Also, we had exterior doors that had wood rot. Mose meticulously carved out the rot and cut many small, intricate pieces of wood, to replace those areas without compromising the original design of the front entry door. It turned out that the rot was deeper and more pronounced than originally thought, but Mose worked diligently and with great skill to make both exterior doors perfect. Mose also cut and placed a vent in a bathroom and designed and installed an access door for exposed plumbing in the laundry room. I highly recommend Mose Troyer for his skill, courteousness and overall kindness. I will be utilizing him again in the near future
- Buckeye House PaintingWe have used Buckeye Painting on numerous occasions. They are very professional and reliable from the estimate through the finished project. They took such great care with our landscaping while painting, and did a fantastic job. We will definitely call them for any future projects. Highly recommended if you are looking for quality and great communication
- Ohio Exteriors LLCRoofs were replaced on our large two story Georgian house and detached garage. A flat section on the house (a connector) had been previously replaced by another firm and was not replaced by Ohio. That other firm was not selected to do the work because of Ohio’s great responsiveness and knowledge shown in the quoting process. Ohio was priced slightly lower than that firm, but not the lowest among the three bidders. It all came down to trust. Ohio even ran our shingle selection through the approval process with our architectural review committee and got them approved for us. The shingles were on par with the quality of those already approved, but we’re less expensive. On the actual roof replacement, there were minor challenges with the dormer trim from the replacement work, which Ohio came back out and fixed within a couple of days. About a year later, there were some major wind challenges that blew off a couple of shingles on the vents and an animal pulled back some flashing to try to get into the attic, neither of which I would blame Ohio for. Ohio made those two separate trips out to fix those problems the next business day, even when the problem was not a roof replacement problem. I was impressed! Overall, we have been very pleased with our selection of Ohio Exteriors to replace our roof. We would definitely use them again and refer them to others. Thanks, Ohio Exteriors for a job well done
- Ohio Exteriors LLCOhio Exteriors replaced the siding and gutters on my house. They did a great job! I would definitely hire them again.

"Jonathan worked hard to solve the problem. He snakes the underground pipes 3 times and cut the downspout to add a larger opening. He also suggested cleaning the gutters while he was there. I was impressed by his hardwork but shocked by the bill. It was more than double what was quoted to me. After some phone calls back and forth they agreed to reduce the bill by $200. Make sure you ask the price if they suggest additional services.

"We had some wind damage a couple years ago and we hired Ed and his team to do the replacement. They did a great job then and the price, quality of work, responsiveness and professionalism was excellent. Two weeks ago we had some minor wind damage (one piece of siding came loose) and I contacted Ed and his team to do the repair. Ed came out, provided a free inspection and even was courteous enough to offer the repair free of charge. The repair was completed this week and once again was great work. If we have any additional siding projects in the future, New Look is who I will be calling. Definitely would recommend New Look to any and all who have a siding job.

"These guys were amazing. I'm a contractor myself and almost never trust anyone to do a home project of mine. The adage "of u want something done right you've got to do it yourself", absolutely does NOT apply to the AZ crew. They did impeccable work. We're always on time. Fast and friendly. My fence is as good, if not better, then if I would have done it myself. Will def be calling them from now on for all kinds of things. Thanks again.
