    Overall was a great experience working with John. Weekly emails laid out the work to be done. Contractors were competent and communicative. Craftsmanship was very good- from the molding to the floating mantle. We were looking for a modern basement and helped the vision come to life. Would highly recommend for any basement project.

    We had an unfinished basement project we were looking to complete. In this project we knew we had plans for a gym, a backstock pantry, closed off storage area, and wet bar / tv area for entertaining. We didn’t know however how to make it all flow, or have our vision come to life. Meeting JP Grabenstetter allowed us to do this. John came in and suggested the perfect layout for us and our space. Out of the 3 quotes we got for our basement this company was the far superior choice. He made our vision come to life, provided great communication on when the team would be doing what work during the many weeks of renovations, and answered our constant questions along the way. We are so happy with the beautiful, warm, and inviting basement we now have as part of our home and would recommend this entire team to anyone.

    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! Johns 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 had a great experience with John and his team creating the basement we’ve always wanted. From the very start during our planning stages, we felt very confident with John’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. We’ve already recommended him to family & friends for their home projects as well!

    We recently hired John and his team to finish our basement, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. They transformed an unfinished space into a fully functional and beautiful area, adding a full bathroom, workout room, office/flex space, and a kitchen area—all within just six weeks! Throughout the project, they were punctual, professional, and incredibly tidy, leaving the workspace clean at the end of each day. John and his team went above and beyond to ensure every detail matched our vision, delivering everything we asked for and more. Their dedication and attention to detail truly set them apart, and we were so impressed that weve already recommended them to friends. If youre looking for reliable, high-quality, friendly contractors, John and his team are an excellent choice!

  • Review 9 (2024-10-05 - Rating: 5)

    When we decided to finish out our basement we got estimates from 4 different contractors, we certainly made the right choice.I can’t recommend John & his team enough! The transformation of our basement has been a great experience, from quote to finish the process has been smooth. You can tell that John & crew care, not just about the job they do, but that we were happy along the way too. The communication has been great, the website was very helpful to track the schedule, payments, balance and messages. The quality of the work is exactly as expected, we couldn’t be happier. John uses his own employees, all of whom have worked for him for many years, the subs that he’s brought in only augment his team and have worked with John for many years. No worries of the contractor agreeing the job and then subbing out the work to the lowest bidder. John worked with us when we wanted to make some changes, and he even suggested some things that we were unsure of.

    Grabenstetter Construction did a wonderful job making our unfinished basement a beautiful and usable space for us.

I truly appreciated the quality and reasonable cost of the project.

They were attentive to all the details I requested and worked hard to accommodate my specific needs throughout the project—especially with the entertainment center requests behind the walls.What really stood out was their professionalism and easy communication. I always knew what was happening at each stage, and their online portal made the process much smoother and less stressful. The workmanship was solid, and they finished within the given timeframe of about 8 weeks.Overall, JP Grabenstetter Construction did a fantastic job.

    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 Johns company. Thank you so much John and his team!

  • Review 21 (2023-11-14 - Rating: 5)

    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 – Olmsted Falls, OH

  • Review 23 (2023-11-22 - Rating: 5)

    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 Johns 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!

  • Review 24 (2023-11-04 - Rating: 5)

    John and his team do amazing work. John is very responsive with communications which is key for a successful business. He personally met with my husband and they discussed the plans for our basement finishing project. John drew up plans and had them to us in under 24 hours. They entire team was friendly accommodating and CLEAN! Each night the entire space was clean and we could walk through to see the progress. The venders John works with for cabinets, flooring and countertops are all top notch. There is so much expert craftsmanship in the work. The woodwork on our custom bar is gorgeous! Honestly we couldn’t be happier. Our basement turned out beautifully and has added so much living space to our home. We have gotten so many compliments on it and our guests love coming over to enjoy our new space! Thank you!!

    John and his team did a fantastic job on our basement. His crew was professional, punctual and skilled. They finished my basement of 1300 sq. feet with in 6 weeks. The whole experience from sales to delivery was a good seamless experience. His office lady Cheryl processed the paperwork (change order, payments, ordering of raw materials, delivery etc.) in a very methodical way. There was never a confusion what would come next and how it would be executed. My friends tell me that my basement is of much a better quality than my house upstairs and I agree with them! I strongly recommend John and his team for your basement project!

    I would highly recommend JP Grabenstetter Construction. They are, in my opinion, the very best in the business! From start to finish, John and his team were an absolute pleasure to work with. They turned our very awkward, unusable basement space into a high-end living space that our family will enjoy for years to come. Every time I go into the basement, I can’t even believe the transformation that took place. It’s like something out of a magazine.John has vision and an eye for detail. Within our first meeting, he was able to reimagine our terribly drab existing basement into a fantastically useful space. My husband and I had a wish list of 6 functional areas within our basement design; a full bathroom, a media room, a bar, a playroom, a game room, and a home gym. With just under 1,200 sq ft of space, John gave us every single item on our wish list and then some!John has a knack for paying attention to the little details on a project. He went above and beyond to find us a knoll-post and trim that specifically matched the look of our upstairs living area. When the bar faucet was ordered, they inadvertently ordered brushed nickel instead of oil rubbed bronze. John immediately went out and purchased a replacement faucet in oil rubbed bronze that was absolutely my style! But quite possibly the most impressive was the fact that John noticed a minor issue with 2 of our cabinets in our bar and without prompting, he ordered what he needed to get them fixed! Days after he received my final payment, he emailed me to tell me that they would be out to do the work soon!Most of the guys that work for JP Grabenstetter are direct employees, not sub-contractors. We felt like this made a HUGE difference when it came not only to schedule but especially to QUALITY. I felt like each of the guys on John’s team took pride and ownership in the work that they performed. My husband and I are VERY particular and detailed individuals and JP Grabenstetter more than lived up to our expectations.John has many years in the business and over the years has formed relationships with some very top of the line vendors in the area. A huge tip for those of you who do make the decision to work with JP Grabenstetter Construction; make sure to get their Preferred Vendor List as soon as you get your contract signed and start making calls! Meet with the cabinet vendor, the carpet vendor, the granite vendor, etc and start getting a feel for what styles you want, even if the design of the basement isn’t 100% complete. This will help your project stay on track and relieve some of the pressure of making last minute decision. Plus these vendors have great ideas that may help you along with your decision making.I did a lot of homework before I decided on JP Grabenstetter Construction. I read all of the reviews online, I called my realtor to make sure that an investment in our basement was a wise decision, and in the end, I am extremely pleased with our decision. Many thanks to JP Grabenstetter Construction on our beautiful basement remodel!

    I recently had the pleasure of working with John and Cheryl, who helped coordinate the project, on a basement renovation project that was completed within an impressive 8-week timeframe (1800 square feet + 400 feet of storage). We had gotten quotes from 3 other contractors and based on our first meeting we knew we would want to go with them as they respected our vision but helped co - develop what the space could look like. They did not make the process feel like a sales pitch or try to upsell us to things we wouldnt value.They transformed our underutilized space into a stunning and functional area that includes a media room, bedroom, a gym, and a bar area. From the initial consultation to the final walk-through, the process was seamless and stress-free, thanks to their expertise and professionalism.They both were always available to answer our questions and made sure that every detail was executed to perfection. The quality of workmanship was great, and they used top-notch materials to ensure durability and aesthetic appeal.The teams coordination with the contractors was great, ensuring that each phase of the project stayed on schedule. They also kept us informed of the progress and any potential challenges, which they handled efficiently.Overall, John and Cheryl exceeded our expectations. They made the entire renovation experience enjoyable and delivered a basement that we now love and use daily. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a reliable and talented team.
