Company submitted 2 bids. One for the garage roof and one for the house roof. We wanted to hire him to do both. Due to his lack of timely responsiveness, we retained another roofer for the garage and keep Kearns for the roof. After a week of begging Greg to puck up the down payment, since we were closing on a home sale, he finally showed up. He was visibly upset to see that the roof had already been done. Said he's go out to his car to call his partner and drove off. Need I say more?

Not well.
Description of Work: NOTHING. Very rude on the phone, tried to call for a FREE ESTIMATE as advertised and just received the rudest response. He said he was booked for the YEAR and couldn't even give me a referral. Just rude and unprofessional.

See above. Of all the people I called for estimates, he was the only one that came out.
Description of Work: Came out to look at damage on house. Stated he could not do the work that was needed, but referred me to someone else. But was very prompt, courteous, and didn't do work that didn't need done.

Description of Work: Replaced and raised patio door because of leaking. Replaced our bathroom sinks, repaired leak in one bathroom, replaced subfloor and floor. Replaced bathtub fixtures. Corrected unstable bathroom fixture that our original builder never finished. Replaced toilets. |We had several issues with our condo. Dan and Lee fixed all of them, and explained what they did. Dan is very honest and detail oriented. He was not the cheapest quote, but the work was done beyond our expectations.

I invited Dan Kearns to inspect our house, and give estimates to remodel. Unfortunately the project was too much (we live out of State) and we decided to sell the house as-is. Although, we did use Kearns Construction to gut the basement. Dan exceeded all expectations, and his fees were very reasonable. Other contractors who I invited to visit the house and give estimates, did not even have the courtesy to get back to me.

He was very professional and prompt, but I just decided to go to another company. The guy was very professional and helpful. He also gave me a lot of insight. I guess the only reason I did not choose them is because the other company was able to give me more of a vision. The other company has more hands-on products for me to look at.

It was good. I would not say that I would not use them. I was talking to another contractor and basically felt more comfortable with the other person. He was a good guy with a lot of experience. I'm sure he would have done a great job. I would definitely recommend him to a neighbor or a friend.

Mr. Kearns was punctual for his first appointment, was very thorough and professional, gave us an estimate and then informed us when he could do the work. I was not present when he was at our house as he dealt entirely with my husband, who is a very particular guy with advanced engineering degrees. My husband was very impressed with Mr. Kearns, his workmanship, his timeliness and that of his painting contractor. The door looks fabulous, they cleaned up everything and we are just delighted with the result. We highly recommend Kearns Construction and will definitely use them again.
Description of Work: Kearns Construction removed a front door with glass side panels, installed a new identical one that we had purchased ourselves and painted the entire framework.

They're an excellent contractor and I've had no problems with them. They were way over budget for what I wanted to do and that's why I didn't use them.

Dan did a great job throughout the process. Unlike many of the contracting services I spoke to Dan was present performing a great deal of the work so when I was interviewing him it was not just talking to the foreman but to the person that was actually going to be doing the work. Once the project started I had daily updates as to what the plan was for the week and where the delay points could be. In addition any concerns I had at the end of teh day were addressed the next day without complaint. The room came out great and we were definately satisfied with the final product.
Description of Work: This was a remodel of my master bathroom. The room was completely gutted to the studs and floor joists. We had the room replumbed as well as rewired and replaced the window that was in the room. In addition we installed a vent as well as a large cutom built walk in shower.

I made sure I never called Kearn's Construction back and I'm guessing he probably didn't want to do it. He was very nice and came when he said he was going to. He looked at everything and it was all bad news, which I figured it would be. After he gave me his estimate I went into a depression and I ended up calling Western Reserve Home Inspection and the guy who works there is a structural engineer. He came out and told me that I could just have the concrete torn out because it wasn't moving up the porch or steps and everything could stay and I would only have to tear a little bit of the porch floor up to get all of the concrete out and so I got mad at the other guy from Kearn's Construction because I thought they were trying to make a whole bunch of money off of me.
Description of Work: Kearn's Construction gave me an estimate of $30,000 to do a foundation wall that's collapsing because of water damage. He told me that if he took it out he would have to take the porch out and then the steps would fall and that I would need to have it fixed all the way out to the sidewalk.

I can't say enough good things about my experience with Kearns Construction. Dan is professional, reliable, and extremely good at what he does. He was patient with us if we didn't know what we wanted. He and his crew were extremely kind to my two young children. He worked with my husband when he wanted to change parts of the original plan. Because he was careful with our budget, we were never worried about being caught short. I was originally worried that I would go a long time without a kitchen, but Dan hooked up a sink and stove/oven for us every day when he left. Dan is a great communicator; we never wondered what was happening or if/when someone would show up. If he didn't see me each day, he called me to tell me what happened each day and what would happen the following day. If I called his cell, he always responded promptly. Dan and his crew worked around a really soggy season, and they would often show up at 7:30 in the morning and stay until the job for the day was complete. His estimates were very detailed and very clear. My recommendation of Kearns Construction is most enthusiastic. I will definitely call Dan if I need anything done.
Description of Work: Planned and built an addition to our house--master bedroom, master bath, walk-in closet. Gutted inner walls of house to create an open dining room/kitchen with all new appliances, cupboards, countertops, flooring, and fixtures. Built a patio. Carpeted two bedrooms and a living room.

They did an excellent job. They were very communicative about the job having to be delayed due to excessive rain over the past month. They came when they said they were going to and were very professional. They were able to take a photograph that I had found online and recreate it in my backyard. I am very pleased with the gorgeous new patio and pergola in my backyard and would definitely use Dan and his crew for future jobs!
Description of Work: Dan had a 12 X 33 colored, stamped concrete patio put in behind our garage for placement of our new hot tub. Upon completion of the patio, Dan and his crew built a 12 X 27 cedar pergola with round white columns over this patio.

They were very good. They came on time, did good work and cleaned. The workers that came out were good. They were very responsive. They did what they were hired to do and when asked questions they answered them; they were very informative. I have no complications. The price was fair. I would use them again in the future if necessary.
Description of Work: I used Kearns Construction, Inc. to put up a ceiling in the kitchen that was broken and they fixed a pipe. I had another problem and they suggested how to fix it and they got somebody to fix that.

All contractors were excellent in their craftsmanship.

So far, this is a good experience. We've chosen Dan from several other bids by contractors. I like the design he submitted. I feel he listened to me and understood what I want. The price he's estimated seems very fair so far.

They were wonderful. Very, very good. He was very willing to work with what we wanted. When we came back with a new idea, he'd give us another estimate. In one case, he made a mistake and apologized. He finds very good sub-contractors to work for him. They knew what they were doing.
