WHEN PUSH CAME TO SHOVE, HAD TO CALL EASTON ABOUT YARD WHICH HAS STILL TO BE FIXED CORRECTLY. LAWN HAS BEEN AND STILL IS A NIGHTMARE. I'M NOT ONLY HOME WITH YARD PROBLEMS IN AREA. AT THIS PRICE POINT, BUILDER SHOULD HAVE HELP FOR HOME OWNERS IN THIS LAST AREA TO BE DONE. AS DOES MOST PEOPLE, WE PURCHASED FOR LOCATION, AND I ADMIT TO BEING MORE THAN A LITTLE DISAPPOINTED WITH THE YARD. HOWEVER, SHOWCASE HAS NOT RUN AWAY AND SAYS THEY WILL HAVE THINGS RIGHT BEFORE THE WEATHER TURNS BAD. I WILL UPDATE SPRING 2006 IF STILL HAVE PROBLEMSshow more

He very carefully dug the trench, put the dirt in his truck rather than make a mess, and replaced it with all new gravel. He said it would settle and that he would add more gravel to make it level. I had just had new gravel put in before this and he was very careful and replaced all the gravel. The minute I had any problem whatsoever they would come out. He gave me his personal card with his personal phone number so I can call if I need anythingshow more

The team at Gossing Construction added on a huge new kitchen and also remodel the main level of our house. We worked with an architect and had Gossing estimate the total cost of the addition. Their price was right in line with all of the other builders we spoke to but the team at Gossing just seemed more professional. Our project was a "medium" size project for them since they build very large houses but due to the size, we received the best personal service from their employees. They only use subcontractors for certain areas (like drywall) which I completely understand. Mike England's assistance with the interior design on the kitchen and log cabin was more than anyone could ask for. Each and everyone of their staff is very professional and I'm actually going to miss seeing some of them now that the project is complete. We will need future work done on our house and we plan to use Gossing Construction for all the workshow more

The experience did not go well. The project was to be done by December 2009. It was not finished until May 31, 2010. Some of the delay was in securing material, but the last 3-4 months was because Herb would not complete the project using quality materials and skilled labor. Examples of problems, the master shower stall marble was installed very badly. There is not a flush wall in the stall. The subfloor underneath the shower stall was not leveled out nor was the bathroom floor so there is a pitch both to the floor and the shower stall which made it extremely difficult to lay tile and put in a shower door. The roof has one type of overhang into the gutter on the front of the roof and uses a different technique and look on the back of the house. We blow the circuit breakers every time we run two items even though the whole house was supposedly brought up to code. The paint is peeling off the woodwork around the doors. A cabinet door won't close in the kitchen because they ran plumbing and wiring through the cabinet that blocks the door from being closed. None of the applicances fit in the spaces that were made for them when the cabinets were put in. The list goes on and on. I would never recommend this contractorshow more

Steve Bottoms is the President of Bottoms Construction, Inc. and an excellent contractor. We have hired him and his team to do many different large-size custom home renovations. Most recently he tore out an old bath tub and in it's place built a beautiful walk-in shower (of his own design) with beautifully arranged ceramic tile, a granite seat, and all new plumbing, light, and fixtures. He renovated three bathrooms with new plumbing, new toilets, new faucet sets, new lighting, and granite top sinks. In two of the bathrooms he also installed new ceramic tile floors, requiring some floor and wall repair. He also built oak stair rails (we have a tri-level) to our upstairs and installed a straight rail to the downstairs. He has rebuilt our kitchen floor, built a cherry fireplace mantle (also his own design) and a stone wall in our living room. He has done many other renovation jobs for us, so we have had a great deal of experience working with him. Steve Bottoms does excellent work. He's very professional, very skilled, very responsible, very honest, and very easy to work with. We went on vacation for a week and left him with our house keys so he could work while we were gone. We knew for certain that we could trust him to be responsible with everything - and he was. He even did house cleaning so we wouldn't come home to a mess. Just try finding a contractor that will do that. I am glad that Angie's List has a forum that gives me the opportunity to recommend him. If I ever want to build a new house, there is absolutely no question that I will call Bottoms Constructionshow more

We met with Gossing, and 2 other general contractors, to obtain estimates for a garage and bonus room addition to our home. From the beginning, Mike from Gossing was the most aligned with our thinking of the three. Pricing was relatively close across all three contractors. Our decision to move forward with Gossing was based on a great preliminary design, their approach aligning with our thinking, and the fact that they use their own teams for design, framing, painting, and other misc work, subbing out only the major trade work (electrical, HVAC, concrete, drywall, foundation work). Mike and the whole team were an absolute joy to work with. We were very particular in all aspects of the construction, and the Gossing team worked with us on every detail. The quality of their work was top notch, and they constantly went the extra mile to ensure exceptional results. A few examples: Replacing additional roofing on our existing garage because they weren't happy with the way the shingles blended together Distributing the leftover dirt from the foundation excavation to low spots in our back yard (and giving us a credit because we elected to keep the dirt, rather than have it hauled away) Painting both our old garage door and the new one to make them a perfect match Removing, rotating, and reinstalling a loft ladder (at no additional cost) when we discovered that facing it in the other direction would make for easier access Additionally, the level of care the Gossing crew took to keep our house clean during the construction was just amazing. We highly recommend Gossing for this type of work and will happily work the entire team in the futureshow more

RJ Chevie was awesome during the process of designing, planning, and building our new home. I spoke with a lot of builders in the central Ohio area (12 others), and Tom at RJ Chevie was the most sincere one I met with. From the first meeting my wife and I could tell that Tom was interested in us as people not as just one more customer. Creating this relationship is key because building a home from the ground up is a long process and has a lot of stressful decisions. Everyone at RJ took the time to talk with us and respond quickly when we had a question. We chose to design the house from basically scratch and they walked us through the process, and had excellent advice from their years of experience. The cost projections for the house were fair and I really believe we truly got what we paid for and more. With Tom's help we were able to stay on budget throughout the project. Since this was my first custom build I wasn't prepared for how much individual items like lighting cost for a whole house. Although our projected budget covered the essentials, I would have added a little more in a few areas: lighting, cabinets, carpeting. In the end we definitely got everything we wanted and it looks awesome. We made a few changes to the home during the construction process, and because RJ stayed in constant contact with me I was able to work the change in without a lot of pain or delay. They always called me when a major process was being scheduled way in advance so that I could talk with them about expectations. Factoring in delays from weather the build was completed on time. RJ Chevie powered through one of the worst/coldest winters I can remember to get things done. They are really dedicated to making you feel in control of the whole project, rather than some contractors I've worked with that make you feel beholding to them. The workmanship for the house is very professional and well done, my wife and I often comment how we never thought we could afford to live in such a nice home. I've heard horror stories of contractors using questionable subs, but everyone who worked on our house was top notch and knew what they were doing. There hasn't been anything that I've said: "what were they thinking when they did that?" During any home build you'll have a few things that need adjusted after completion, RJ has been very responsive and timely to correct any changes that needed addressed. There was no haggling or hand wringing, Tom simply evaluated the issue and got it done by a professional. Overall I'm VERY satisfied with the end product, our home and even more pleased with the customer service from RJ Chevie. There are a ton of builders who can get a house built. I'd be very surprised though if they could match the positive experience I had with RJ. Sure we had some stressful days, and some wrenches thrown into the process that seemed huge. Tom worked with us on a personal level to overcome the obstacles, and always talked us through the solutions. In the end building a house is more than materials and time, its a journey over a long period of time. You need to work with people you can trust and RJ Chevie gives you the confidence that things will get done rightshow more

We had such a wonderful experience with Brad. The entire project took about 3 weeks, as Brad was doing all of the work by himself during 90+ degree heat. He took such pride in his work and insisted on doing everything the correct way. He is a perfectionist, which I love. His wood-working is amazing, as are his design ideas and work ethic. We are very fortunate to have found such a talented buildershow more
