Meet The Owners
Get To Know Dream Home Construction
When we started the company, we set out with a simple goal: to be the best home remodeler in the Cleveland area. To achieve this goal, we knew that quality, creativity, and client care were keys to success. “Is there a better way to do this?” became our guiding principle. Even today, we are constantly seeking ways to improve our company level of quality from top to bottom.
We are “hands-on” owners, and our clients know that they will always be able to talk to one of us if a problem arises. We always tell our clients to get five bids, take the most expensive and least expensive and throw those away. With those that remain, check references, check with your city to see if they are registered contractors, and finally, always go with the company with whom you feel most comfortable.

Scott’s family has always been in the construction field. He wanted to start his own company, knowing that if you can work hard, you can achieve anything.
What are your hobbies/interests?
One of our main hobbies is hot rod cars; we collect cars and (re)build them. Scott and our son built a 1955 Ford F100 truck from the ground up! We love going to car shows, spending time as a family, boating, and fishing at our cottage. Our family has been involved with Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts for the past 10 years. We enjoy spending the time with our son, Matthew, who became an Eagle Scout in December 2016. Working with the boys has given us satisfaction, knowing that we were helping to motivate them to become respectable young men, and develop positive values that will carry over into their adult careers. We are still involved with the Eagle Scout projects. We believe it takes a village to help one another and have been helping the Santa Hide Away (more information on this is available at the website).

What Our Customers Say
Scott and his subcontractors always cleaned up each day and took care of any little issue immediately. Yvonne always clearly communicated the daily schedule and the business side of things. The whole team responded when we added extra requests and managed to fit them into the original schedule (thank you Yvonne for chipping in on the work site for the last couple days!).
We did have some glitches with the subcontractors who installed the new hardwood floors. They did a beautiful job of putting them in to mesh with the existing floors in the rest of the house, but getting them finished properly took several tries, which was pretty disruptive to the household. But the important thing is that Scott made sure they kept trying until we were happy with the end result.
Last note: during the kitchen work we asked Scott about getting our roof redone, which needed a complete tear-off of two layers, expecting to schedule sometime in the fall. But as soon as his awesome team of Amish cabinet fitters were finished in the kitchen, they immediately transformed into an awesome team of roofers and had our roof done in two days. Amazing!
Now we have the beautiful, functional kitchen literally of our dreams and a solid new roof, all in the space of two months. We have other dreams for our house in the coming years and will definitely be calling Dream Home to make them come true.
Scott and his son Matt, with help from Scott's wife, were very professional, particular, and even perfectionistic( in the very best sense of the word). My wife and I felt the quality of their work was excellent, Their demeanor made it very clear they cared a lot about doing the best job possible. In addition they were very peasant and personable.
In summary I would say we have been extremely pleased with
Dream Home Construction and will not hesitate to call them again when we need further work done.
