I had a great experience from beginning to end. They were great about changes made during the project. The crews were courteous and professional, they always cleaned the area at the end of the shift. A weekly update on what to expect for the week was very helpful and exciting for us.

John and his team were so easy to work with from start to finish! I loved that they were able to handle everything (framing, drywall, painting, electric, etc.) and we didn't have to find multiple contractors. Communication was quick and quality of work was great too! Definitely happy with our selection for finishing our basement. Highly recommend!

We had a great experience with John and his team creating the basement weâ ve always wanted. From the very start during our planning stages, we felt very confident with Johnâ s design elements and he was able to bring everything we had on paper to fruition! The process was simple, quick and efficient. He and his team were a pleasure to work with and very responsive. Weâ ve already recommended him to family & friends for their home projects as well

We hired John to finish our basement with a great room, game area, kitchenette/bar, full bed and bath. We could not have been happier how it all turned out! John's crew started in early February and finished within just 2 months time. Overall, it was a very good process working with John and his team - communication was friendly and prompt, deadlines were met and the prices he gave us were reasonable. Any issues that we ran into during the process were immediately addressed and fixed. Even his admin (Cheryl) was super friendly, responsive and helpful. Would definitely recommend JP Grabenstetter Construction!

We want to thank John and his team for making our vision come to light. Our goal was to turn our basement into a gathering space for years to come to host family and friends and they did just that. Cheers to the Grabenstetter team! John sent weekly updates and was always accessible... highly recommend! Mark & Denise

We recently hired J.P. Grabenstetter Construction company for finishing our basement (~1100 sqft) and garage. We had a really great experience with John and his team. They were very professional and very easy to work with. We were impressed with the way John provided us the estimate which was very detailed with drawing and timeline. Also, we like the fact that John used to send email on every weekend to explain what to expect in the coming week. They finished the project within 6 weeks. John and his team made the project like a breeze. We never felt that we are having a major renovation project in our house. Also, John’s entire crew were very nice and friendly people and looks like they know very well what they are doing. Overall, very great experience and we would definitely recommend John and his company for any kind of remodeling/renovation work. Also, they are affordable compared to other contractors we talked before hiring John's company. Thank you so much John and his team!

you are looking to remodel any part of your home, I highly recommend JP Grabenstetter! They transformed our spiderweb, scary, junkyard basement into an incredible Finnegan's Speakeasy space! John and his contractors are very responsive, courteous and professional, not to mention super efficient. Our basement project took just 4 weeks. Incredible!

JP Grabenstetter Construction did a wonderful job making our unfinished basement a beautiful and usable space for us on time and at estimated cost. Thank you for the assistance in the layout to incorporate a family room, full bath and workout room. All the craftsmen and Johnâ s selected vendors were very easy to work with and were very helpful. I truly appreciated the quality and reasonable cost of the project.

I would highly recommend John and his entire Team! JP Grabenstetter Construction was referred to us by close friends after their basement project turned out exceptional, and we wanted the same for our basement. The entire process was extremely easy and budget friendly. Not only was the craftmanship top notch, everyone on John's team was extremely professional and courteous. Even the little things like making sure there was always paper down to prevent footprints on our floors and keeping a very neat and orderly workspace throughout the process, were extremely appreciated. As with any large home project, some unforeseen challenges arose--- but John was great at coming up with creative solutions without breaking the budget. This basement project could not have turned out any better!

The first time John stepped into our home I had a feeling we were good hands. His knowledge, expertise, and energy stood out. We were never pressured into signing a contract or paying any money upfront. Once we decided to go with JP Grabenstetter, a fully-detailed construction and payment plan was setup along with a start date! No details were left out and a trust was established. The entire project took 6 ½ weeks from start to finish. Which I still cannot believe it went that fast. John kept his word on everything he promised and the communication was above and beyond. His workers and trades were punctual, friendly, courteous, and professional. The workmanship was done clean and done well. Simply put, John and his crew did everything he said he was going to do from day one until the job was complete. John and his company were very reliable and easy to work with. We are very pleased with our new basement and highly recommend using JP Grabenstetter!! Jon and Lauren â Olmsted Falls, OH

We recently had JP Grabenstetter Construction finish our basement. After recently moving with a two year old and another one quickly on the way, we were already stressed with all the transitions and hopeful deadlines. They put us at ease throughout the entire process with detailed timelines, prompt/upfront communication, and every skilled worker that arrived at our house was professional, safe, and efficient. They didnâ t skip a beat paying attention to every detail, you can tell they take great pride in their craft. We witnessed our basement transform into a beautiful living space that has quickly become our favorite place in the house. I would recommend them over and over again.
