What a great opportunity I had working with Drake Construction and Restoration! I am so grateful, and blessed to have found them. I waited many years to do this renovation of my 1893 red brick townhome. I needed to find a company that was proficient, exact and accommodating to my needs and support the vision I had for my home. I truly found all of these attributes with Drake Construction. This project reconfigured every room to provide a safe and updated living space that kept the character of the home. The moldings and floors are new but the essential feeling of the home is still there. Thank you Drake Co. for your exceptional service! DCB

Drake’s Construction did our new roof a few weeks ago. They did an excellent job and made the entire expensive and stressful process as easy as a big unexpected expense can be. Brian Drake gave us a fair estimate, he was easy to work with, answered all of my many questions and was very communicative.Aside from a roof replacement they removed and closed off 5 skylights and installed new gutters and downspouts. They did a great job - both inside and out - and we couldn’t be happier! Here are before and after pictures of the roof…it was a hot mess before they did they got here!His crew is great and they certainly went the extra mile for us. We couldn’t be happier and I’m so glad we went with Drake’s Construction & Restoration!!!

I had an older roof with wind damage and a leaking carport that needed replaced. Bryan assisted me with the insurance claim. During the repair process, I was able to communicate with the crew and Bryan about some extra work which they were able to complete with the job. The crew was courteous, efficient, and completed the job with quality workmanship. The work was completed in 2.5 days. I couldnt be happier with the results!

We contacted many companies to get quotes for a new roof and gutters, most never replied, one never showed. So I called Drakes, and I received a call back the same day, a quote the next, and a scheduled appointment straight away. On the scheduled day, the crew showed up early and ready to go. They finished the shingles in one day, gutters the next. The foreman for each task was informative, courteous and seemed to have pride in their job. Other than a few missed nails, they cleaned up like they were never there. We are completely happy with the workmanship Drakes team provided. Highly recommend Drakes for your next home improvement needs.

Drakes Construction did an excellent job demoing two large structures on our property. Brian was excellent to work with and handled everything since we had never had anything demoed before. The price was great and the work was on time and was very fast. The weather came and Brian let us know he’d seed and straw after the storm and even hand-delivered the invoice when we settled up.I can’t recommend Drake’s Construction enough. Will be utilizing them for other services in the future.

Drakes Construction & Restoration did an incredible job on my Moms new roof as well as repairs to siding due to hail damage. The crew were on time and left the site in perfect condition. Good communication made for a smooth process. Couldnt have gone better!

We recently had Drake’s Construction complete a remodel and addition to our home. Each crew member was knowledgeable and skilled in their area of expertise. They went out of their way to make sure the project was completed to our expectations. They were always willing to do the little extras, something you don’t always find with a construction company. We would highly recommend Drake’s Construction.

Review 10 (2023-10-27 - Rating: 5)
This job was a great example of how customer service should be done. They worked with us on the quote to get within our budget and had timely replies to every question we had.They showed up a day earlier than they had originally anticipated (after making sure that worked for us) and managed to remove all the old shingles, replace a few sheets of plywood, reshingle, and clean up after themselves so well that our place looked better than before they had started all in a little less than 8 hours.The job foreman was courteous and had a great customer facing demeanor and the crew were like a well-oiled machine. These guys were no jokeI would recommend this company to anyone.

We purchased a home where the cats were peeing into every air vent and return. Drakes crew came and cleaned every inch of the HVAC system in one day. Its terrifying to think we were breathing that stuff they got out of our vents! We are so thankful to not have to worry anymore and the guys were great with our dogs too! Our home smells better and we are all happier.

Everyone Ive come in contact with at Drakes is a top notch professional and just plain nice. They replaced an old furnace with a central heat and air unit and it could not have gone smoother. I would highly recommend them for any job.

Brian has the best construction company! Recently completed building an addition onto our house which included enlarging the master bedroom, bath room, laundry room and porch. So very pleased with the completed project. Every worker was polite, professional, and willing to explain the process. A joy to have at our home. Thanks Brian, Brady, JJ and crew for everything! Will always contact Brian for future projects. Highly recommend!!!

Very satisfied with Drakes response time and repair work on our homes roof. They came on the same day I called. Repaired hole caused by a tree limb and and a leak in another area.

When I first contacted them for the damage from the windstorm they came and patched roof temporary till they could come replace it. A week later had another windstorm that lifted more shingles and they came right back and covered that up for me also. Drake’s construction came today and replaced the shingles on my house they did an amazing job! They had the old shingles off and new on in 8 hours.Great company and would recommend them to anyone!

Drakes Construction came to our rescue after another contractor walked off the job with our money. Brian Drake and his employees were fantastic and very professional in there work. They also found inferior work done by the other contractor and fixed it. They showed up every day and were very respectful and did quality work. This company has integrity. My only regret is not calling them the first time. I will definitely be using them again. There prices are also very reasonable. Jesse kept us informed throughout the process. Thank You - Drakes Construction.

After calling several other HVAC service businesses, I chose Drakes because they offered the best value and didnt try to make me sign up for an expensive package/contract. They scheduled the service within the same week and were definitely on time. Chucky, who is knowledgeable and professional, checked and serviced our AC unit and looked over the filter and furnace inside. I was very satisfied with the service and it was as painless as possible.

In September 2020 we experienced a fire at our home. After calling and waiting on other companies people told us about and getting nowhere, we called Brian Drake, owner of Drakes Construction and Restoration. Brian was at our home the next day and sent a quote the same day. Drakes rebuilt our garage, installed a new garage door opener, put a new roof on our home and they set up an ozone machine to get the smoke smell out. They also poured a new sidewalk and installed a new window. Brian’s team was timely and efficient. They were also incredibly professional, very neat and respectful of our home. We were very happy with their work and recommend them highly.

Review 21 (2017-06-09 - Rating: 5)
I had a foundation issue last year and reached out to Drakes to see if they could do the repair. They were great to work with and did an awesome job. Because of that experience, when I found out my roof was damaged due to hail they were my first call. They just completed the work yesterday (6/8/2017). I would highly recommend this company. They are always pleasant to deal with, fast, fair and reliable.

Major kudos and many thanks to Drake Construction (Brian Drake) and his team!! They did so many different aspects of our complete home gut and remodel job. Their workmanship, timeliness and communication were a breath of fresh air for us. Between Brian and his team, we are never left in the dark and communication from Brian was a 15 on a scale of 1-10. Hands down, wed recommend Drake to anyone and will definitely use them in the future!

My furnace was not working correctly so I called to talk to someone and Brian called me back within the hour. I told him my issue and he had Chris one of his workers call and talk to me. There was a little miscommunication on their part and I didnt hear back from anyone till the next day after talking with Chris. Chris came and took care of my issue within 30 minutes. He apologized for the miscommunication. He was very nice and professional. Brian called to check and make sure everything was in working order. I will be using Drakes if I have any other issues and will have them do a yearly check/cleaning.

Our home AC stopped working on Friday evening. After calling several companies in the area Drakes Construction & Restoration was able to come out TODAY, diagnose and fix the issue and have us operational at a very reasonable cost. Very friendly, efficient, and effective service!!!

We were burned out by fire this past October 2016. Drakes Restoration were to us the same day and even approved by our insurance. In the past 31/2 months they have worked diligently to put all the inside of our home back together with everything new and beautiful. Their people are friendly, amazing at their job, trustworthy, respectful and always courteous. They removed all the stress of our home having to be rebuilt. I will always use this company for any and all our needs from now on. I cant stress enough how blessed my husband and I are to have had Drakes Restoration rebuild our home for us.

Review 26 (2021-05-25 - Rating: 5)
I would recommend Drakes to anyone, I had Drakes put in a full HVAC system in my house and did away with my old floor furnace. They had the whole system and duct work in very quick. The guys that did it were very knowledgeable and the service was great. Everything looks and works great.

TRIPLE A+++ HIGHLY RECOMMENDEDWOW! What can I say!Brian Drake went above and beyond in our time of crisis! Truly a stand up guy, who treats his customers with care and respect! And expects nothing less from his employees!We had a terrible wind storm in early August. We had 9 trees down, and one of the trees, (70’ Pine tree) went through our roof and upstairs ceiling, and rain water was infiltrating the floor joists, soaking the downstairs bedrooms, as well! The trees ripped off gutters and soffit/fascia, tore off a porch awning, smashed porch railings, smashed patio furniture and BBQ grills, broke sidewalks and also damaged brick and masonry. Our house looked like a War Zone!Within an hour of getting the call from our insurance agent, he and his crew were here to remove the debris from our roof and secure a tarp! ( On a Friday evening at 6:30 pm , mind you, after working a long hard week themselves!) Then they brought in huge fans and dehumidifiers to dry everything out.Mr. Drake submitted a repair quote to us and our Insurance Adjuster, which was accepted. (But as to be expected, there’s were bumps in the road.) The Insurance Adjuster had missed many things in his estimate, Mr. Drake diligently negotiated, on our behalf, for the overlooked damage to several more roof rafters and additional gutters as well as interior drywall repair. (And that means a lot to an overwhelmed homeowner that just wants their home back!!!)Upon the commencement of starting the repair to our home, Brian was always communicative! Letting us know what was going on with every step of the process! If I had questions or concerns, within minutes there was a return call, text or email. And most importantly, follow through!!!! He did what he said he would do!!! (Hard to find people like that!)Every crew member at Drake’s Construction and Restoration that came to our home were always respectful, polite and hard working! (No trash talking or playing games!) They cleaned up after themselves every day, communicated with us upon their findings and process and were just in general, a great bunch of people!DRAKE’S CONSTRUCTION & RESTORATION*****Thank you for the job well done!!!*****Most appreciative homeowners,P.H. Swain, Jr +Dan & Angie Hanes

Highly recommended. They replaced the roof on my house and garages. They also capped my chimney and some trim work. They are very professional and take pride in their work. The entire crew worked hard the entire time to ensure the job was done right. They kept the site clean and organized. The quality work changed the entire look of my home. I will use them for future jobs.

Drakes Construction recently replaced my roof and replaced two windows with doors. The crew at Drakes was professional and attentive to the needs of my project and job site. Josh Hurley (salesman) was very responsive from start to finish and followed through on everything we agreed upon for the project. Drakes also was on (under) budget the entire project.

Review 32 (2022-03-16 - Rating: 5)
I had the opportunity to work with Brian Drake today on his business. Obviously, he takes a tremendous amount of pride in taking care of his customers. Plus, he’s a fireman and well-respected in the community. I believe he will take good care of you, your home, or your business.

Review 33 (2020-11-06 - Rating: 5)
Drakes remodeled a bedroom and made an en suite with our bedroom. We are older 80’s and wanted the convenience. Their design was beyond our dreams . 2 closets, washer & Drier, toilet area with door, shower beautiful.marble and they suggested a bench to sit on in the shower. Also marble. We sorta poo pooed the bench and now because of health issues it’s a blessing. We can’t thank Drskes enough for a beautiful en Suite but also the for foresight to cover out needs. Work is excellent and never a mess. Thanks again we love it!Sincerely,Bernie and Terry Lyons

OMG I went on vacation and when I returned my entire roof was replaced along with the skylight they didn’t think they were going to be able to save. These guys did an awesome job and worked so hard for several weeks while I was fightinging with my insurance Co., and Jesse at the office staying in constant contact with them for me. You couldnt ask for better service than this company provides from the customer service to the completion of the job I couldn’t be happier! That you so much Drake Restoration!

Review 36 (2021-11-03 - Rating: 5)
I had an old roof that had been patched up many times before but was now leaking through into the home. Drake’s was quick to provide information along with the quote and even made sure the leak was patched until they had time to do the full replacement.

The repairman came within the hour. He took time to call the company that made the furnace to see if it was under warranty. The parts were covered. He went to get parts, came back, did the repair. He was very knowledgeable & very polite, spoke respectfully of the company and the owner. I was shocked at how inexpensive the service call & repair was! We will definitely call them again if needed!

Drake’s construction went out of their way for me. After calling other places for a estimate and then just never showing up. I called drakes and they called back in 10 minutes, went and looked at the roof and had a estimate the next day.I did have to cancel my service but once I called back they went that day and fixed my roof. You can’t beat their customer service and commitment to helping their customers.I would use them over and over.

I contacted Drake in September of 2020 to give me an estimate on a roof for a client, I also got several other estimates who all informed me I needed a new roof and Drake’s was the only one that informed my client he did not need a new roof just some patching and chimney work and new gutters. He stayed in contact for the next month asking if we had decided to proceed with the job and his communication and consistency won me over! They were quick and easy to work with and I have recommended him to several friends and will continue to use this business.

Im grateful for the kindness from everyone I spoke with, and would highly recommend these folks for any roof repairs or replacement. Theyre quick, and theyre good.Heavy rain 6/21 caused a leak around a ceiling light. They have an answering service, I was called that night, he was here the next day, I got the estimate, and the repairs are now done on 6/23. I would still highly recommend this company.

I woke up at 7 am with no heat. I called Drakes heating and cooling and they had Mike come out and fix it the same day. Mike was very informative and gave me an education session on every step that he was doing. Within the hour I had heat again! I highly recommend and they are lowest price around. Other companies want double the price for what they charge.

We called Drakes due to a flooding in our basement, & considering the amount of work that had to be done & knowing that we were not the only ones needing his services, it was really done in a timely manner. Whenever an issue came up, they always took care of it. We are very happy with our new basement.

Review 76 (2018-02-02 - Rating: 5)
Great job with HVAC! I had them come out for maintenance on my heating and cooling and they did an excellent job. They took care of what needed to be done and then gave me with a report afterwards. So I signed up for one of their yearly maintenance plans, its cheaper for two visits a year with Drakes than the 5 other places I called in town for just an Inspection! Now that I know they do good work for a reasonable price I will be using them for some roofing and water damage I need done as well! Great working with Drakes!
