We were so excited to be building our first home. That excitement quickly faded and turned to a…read morenightmare thanks to our builder. Our house is falling apart after only three years. The scariest part is that most of the problems have to do with water they forgot to put flashing underneath the siding around the front door it continuously leaked water. We contacted the builder multiple times by time they came to attempt to fix it the flooring had raised was molded underneath which they told us to put bleach on and did not replace. Three years later our basement remains unfinished because there are cracks that leak water all down the wall and puddles on the floor every time it rains or snows. The people that they hire do not return phone calls and are very unprofessional. Their latest stunt is to park wherever they feel like it completely blocking the roads , they do not move when asked and have made my daughter late for school and myself late for work. The workers laying concrete on other houses have ran over and ruined my lawn multiple times , my garbage cans, almost hitting my vehicle that was parked in my driveway. The side of our house looks like it could collapse at any time reason still unknown because they kept putting off our claim until we were " no longer under warranty" . I could go on for hours listing all of the issues but it would just be best to say BUYER BEWARE when building with this company. I wish we would not have been so young and naive and could have done more research we now have uncovered many problems others were having after using this builder. There is a reason that their neighborhood holds the most foreclosed homes in Lorain county. Do your research before considering building with them.

Hired Strassen Construction (owner John Neu) to repair shower leak and the resultant damage. Here's…read morehow it was handled: Paid $1700 (half of initial quote of $3600) for him to begin. Employees sent out on the first day spilled can of PVC compound on new flooring, destroying it. Asked for a rag, but never mentioned the accident. Found out after they left. Owner said he would not send same employees again and that he would pay to replace floor. Reviewed the house and, after some discussion about what all we wanted (including a couple items not discussed previously), a new quote was drawn up with a total price of $5200. Paid additional $900 to meet the 50% up-front requirement to bring our amount paid to $2600. Owner came with his two daughters to continue work. He was very unprofessional. Did not work full days. Came late. Left early. Took long lunches. Called off several times. Made numerous trips to hardware store(s) for equipment and/or materials not on-hand that would take a minimum of a half hour, sometimes multiple in one day. Had to remove walk-in shower floor, surround, and glass door. Once reinstalled the door no longer would stay closed due to frame not being level. Also, drain leaked. Exhaust fan wiring needed to be moved and sealed from moisture exposure. Fan still not fully reinstalled and we are unable to turn it on. Several instances where we were told it would be safe to take showers only to find it still leaked. We asked that the bedroom ceiling on the floor below the shower be left until the end to ensure further leaks wouldn't damage it until all work complete. Request was ignored. He instead sent an employee to do the drywalling. She only tarped the bed in the room, leaving the rest uncovered. (Including the adjacent rooms that were not sealed off.) We bought additional plastic sheeting to at least close the room off for the second day. Ceiling hole was expanded to remove water damage and new drywall was installed haphazardly. Large gaps between panels were taped and mudded over. Overall work was shoddy. When we spoke to owner about our issues he claimed that we were "micromanaging" him. I asked that he verify that he was licensed, insured, and bonded. He claims he is, but did not provide any specifics and stated that by asking he felt threatened. He told us that he felt his only recourse was to "part ways". He believes the $2600 we paid up front would cover what he had already done, including the floor that was never replaced. He stated that he felt he could prove that he had earned the $2600, and that we could take him to court if we disagreed. Currently, our situation is: Shower plumbing still leaks Shower drain also leaks Shower floor not level The exhaust fan has no switch with which to operate it The wet-wall is still uncovered Shower door no longer stays closed and leaks as well Shower head is protruding at odd angle Pipes (PEX now) are installed poorly, with improper lengths and no support Floor still stained by PVC compound Downstairs ceiling looks bad - uneven panels, not painted or textured Ceiling fan no longer installed After a month of his work, we are actually worse off than when he started and out a large amount of money. Would not recommend.

I wish there was a way to leave more than five stars because Strassen Construction is superb! I…read morehave never experienced a construction company as great as this one. They are attentive to your needs, and they establish a full meeting of the minds before starting the job, and that type of thoroughness and transparency is so very rare. They are polite and professional and from start to finish they performed the tasks just as agreed upon. As a single woman, I was concerned that my lack of home repair and carpentry knowledge would work against me, but John and the others from Strassen Construction explained everything to me in a way that I was able to understand and I was able to rest assured that I was in good hands, and it proved correct!
