Installers are our full-time employees, not subcontractors. All materials come with a 100% lifetime warranty. At Simple Bath& Simple Kitchen, we believe your bathroom or kitchen can be your sanctuary, and it's high time the process of renovating was as peaceful and serene as the room itself can be! We have a conveniently located showroom in Worthington, with staff available to promptly answer the phone or meet with you in person Monday through Friday (evenings and weekends, by appointment). No cookie cutter "systems" and no "cover ups"! We go right down to the studs to custom build your new tub or shower, and offer fully customized kitchen remodeling. On time, on budget, no worries, no surprises. Simple. We specialize in: • Bathroom Remodeling • Bath Tubs • Showers • Shower & Tub Conversions • Acrylic Wall Surrounds • Onyx Wall Surrounds • Matching Vanity Tops • Commodes • Custom Vanities • Tile & Vinyl Floors • Plumbing We do NOT do handyman work. Simple Kitchen is a sister company to Simple Bath that was created by popular demand from existing bathroom clients.

We understand that the kitchen is one of the most used spaces in your home so we want it to be beautiful and functional. We can give you a BRAND NEW kitchen in a week! We specialize in : Quartz and Granite Countertops, Tile Backsplash, NEW Cabinets, Flooring, Lighting, Appliances

"Cabinets were high quality, workers were friendly but under stress due to what they called a work model. They ran into a couple of things that slowed down the work and took unnecessary short cuts. Dry wall was not all replaced where needed, dry wall mudding was a little sloppy and sanding was sloppy due to pressures of time. For the price that was paid the over all product was less the desired. A leak in a plumbing connection caused water damage to a downstairs bathroom ceiling and the repair was sloppy and the ceiling was left unpainted and spotted. The staff was under undue pressure to finish on Friday as the end of the week came so a new job could be started elsewhere the following Monday. While the workers were friendly and attentive the completed job has numerous flaws that are visible. The electrical work was excellent as was the installation of cabinets and counter tops. Until this company upgrades the over quality of work and allows extra time to properly complete a quality job when unforseen issues arise I would not recommend and felt we were overpriced due to the overall quality of work performed."

The men who put the roof on worked diligently for 12 hours. They were on time, and did outstanding work. The end result was a phenomenal new roof.

Deyo Garage Doors is a locally owned and operated business. We are a small enterprise that has been serving the Central Ohio community since 1990. Our installer and service technicians average over 20+ years experience with garage door installations, many having been trained by the owner Brian Deyo. We are committed to the best customer experience; the quickest response time in our market areas; fair prices; and the highest quality garage doors, garage door parts, and garage door accessories. Our staff is committed not only to being knowledgeable about the garage door industry but also to educating our customers. Our philosophy is the more we can teach you about your garage door system, the safer and more reliable your garage becomes. We offers emergency and after hour service if needed.

"They replaced my garage doors but in the process damaged a lot of the wood around the door. The service man (I won’t mention his name) continues to promise that he would come fix it. Four months later, the texts stopped and I ended up paying to fix it myself. I would have expected they would make the repairs since they caused the damage - guess I was wrong. Not sure if I would recommend."

My name is Charlie Griffey, owner of Griffey Remodeling. Born and raised in Columbus, Ohio, I have always had a passion for Architecture and Design. After graduating high school, I worked for two remodeling companies while paying my own way at the Ohio State University. In 1991, I was confident that with my hard work and dedication, I could start my own remodeling company and here we are 21 years later. My company focuses on residential remodeling and we service many cities surrounding Columbus, Ohio. We are a small company, but we strive to be the best in the industry with our innovative designs and an unmatched professional service from start to finish. We all love what we do and we are proud of our constant A plus rating with the Better Business Bureau, our 27 Angie's List Super Service Awards and many BIA and NARI Project Awards. If you are looking for some remodeling work on your home and you are looking for an honest, competitive, knowledgeable and reputable company, I would love the opportunity to earn your business. I personally handle all of the sales and design, so when you call, please ask for me- the owner.

"Having worked with multiple remodelers and contractors on two different houses, Charlie Griffey is by far the best I've ever worked with. I have high expectations, and Charlie exceeded every one. Charlie had workers at my house every day (including some weekend days) during my project and communicated with me (unsolicited) on a daily basis. This is unheard of for a contractor. Furthermore, his subs do great work. Charlie was not satisfied until we were completely pleased. He even called later after the project was completed to make sure we were happy. He had recommendations for me that I was hesitant to pursue, but he ended up being spot on. Furthermore, we encountered a delay (in shipping--not Charlie's fault), and Charlie remedied the situation himself in order to stay on track. I cannot say enough good things about Charlie's communication, professionalism, efficiency, or attention to detail."

"excellent. You can tell Doug and his crew have been working together a long time as they got here, laid everything out, and got the awning up in about 5 hours, and they probably spoke 5 or 10 words between them when I was out checking progress a few times. They each know their job and they get on with it. Doug has the lowest price of the three companies I checked with. Since they were all A+ rated, I went with him. Very happy thus far"

Home Building questions, answered by experts

The average cost to build a modular home is around $270,000, and most modular homes total between $180,000 and $360,000. Of course, this price varies significantly by location, and the price tends to follow the cost of living in the area. There are quite a few other factors at play that can affect your pricing, including the following:

  • Number of bedrooms and bathrooms

  • Site preparation, including land clearing and leveling

  • Type of foundation

  • Utility connections

  • Cost of building permits

Green homes are often more expensive to build, averaging around $200 per square foot compared to the $150 per square foot you’d spend to build a standard home. However, green homes can save you money on your utility bills by consuming less energy or creating energy using solar panels or wind turbines on-site. They’re more expensive to build, but they often end up costing less in the long run.

Yes, shipping container homes have a very high resale value if they’ve been well maintained over the years. You can resell this home similar to how you’d resell any home. The value depends on the market and the condition. As a bonus, you can transport many container homes depending on the design, which makes them easier to sell if the local market is challenging. 

On average, exterior brick siding costs around $18,000 for a 2,500 square foot home. Whereas vinyl costs around $11,000 and engineered wood costs around $4,000 for the same size home. You also need to account for the cost to paint the material afterward.

How long it takes to build a log cabin depends on a variety of factors, including its size and design, and whether or not you have to clear the land. Construction can take a few weeks for a prefab log cabin on an established site, but up to eight or nine months for a custom cabin on undeveloped land. In comparison, the timeline to build a house is typically four to 12 months.
