The Cleary Company Construction

Remodeling Can Be Fun? YES!
We feel remodeling should be fun, we live this daily as part of our mission statement. The Cleary Company is not just a business but a growing team of great people you will enjoy having in your home. Established in 1994, by George Cleary, our Team of experienced professionals remodel homes in the Columbus, Ohio metro area. Over the years we've produced many award winning projects although our biggest accomplishment is by far the relationships we've built over the years with our clients. We believe this is not only because of our dedicated team members, professional trade contractors or even the first rate suppliers we work with, but because our first responsibility is to give our customers the highest quality of design and construction. When it comes to your interior and exterior home renovations we want to be your renovation experts.

We feel if you have the right mindset you can enjoy the process. The key word being process, to enjoy remodeling you must have a system of policies and procedures to follow. Remodeling is complex and must be organized to avoid chaos to your life and or check book. With well over 100 years of experience within the company, we have fine-tuned what it means to manage and organized job site and we routinely reassess our process by learning through Continuing Education in the design and remodeling industries.

The Cleary Company offers our Clients the benefits of the Design/Build remodeling. We integrate the design, estimating, and construction from the beginning of the project, so we can quickly focus on what can be done within YOUR space and budget. All of the drawings and selections are completed BEFORE contracts are signed and construction begins unlike the alternative Design/Bid approach which starts with a drawings & designs that are then sent out for pricing. Another advantage is having ONE point of contact, ONE company handling the design, the ordering of materials and the construction. So if something is not right, WE take care of it! You’ll never be in the middle of your architect, your builder, your supplier and/or your trade contractor.
