Classic Design Homes LLC

Working with George and Jeff Ford of Classic Design Homes has been an absolute pleasure. We have broken ground in September 2016 on our new custom home. Throughout the entire designing of our home, they have been very professional, warm, detail oriented, and honest. They have been able to translate the vision of our dream home into reality. We continue to be amazed as to how quickly they respond to our questions, and how they are always there to put us at ease in our stressful moments. They offer helpful suggestions to get for us the details we like within our budget. Carol Ford heads the interior designing for CDH. She has a wonderful eye for elegant design. What you will not see in other builders is how George himself goes out to the site regularly to overview the construction. He is very particular about the structural integrity of the house and makes sure the workers are doing their job well. He hires the best contractors that have worked with him for several years and his first priority is to give the client a solidly built home without shortcuts or shoddy worksmanship. He is a man of integrity and great character who lives up to his promises. Jeff put in his 100% in taking our design ideas and drafts and converting them into the final prints, while adding many great suggestions and changes that enhanced the beauty and practicality of our home. Both George and Jeff were present at all our meetings, and they have been a silently hard working team. We never left their office disappointed. After researching other builders, we came to the conclusion that CDH gives you quality, fair pricing, the best service, and the benefit of a very high level of knowledge and experience in home building. We rate them to be the best builder in the Canton, Akron and Cleveland areas, and would highly recommend them to you for your project or home.

Jeff and Kim are absolutely amazing - nicest people you'll ever meet. Their work is amazing as well. You won't be disappointed. Give them a shot!

Jeff and George Ford of Classic Design Homes, LLC listened , offered suggestions and took their time with us as we explained what we were looking to do to remodel most of our home last year. They took our thoughts and vision and came up with a design that was exactly what we were looking for in the 1st CAD drawing - so perfect that we didn't change anything. We removed a load bearing wall between the kitchen and family room (open concept), brand new kitchen, added a 1st floor laundry which also provided access from the garage into the house, expanded and redesigned the dining room, installed a beautiful stone fireplace, redesigned new bath and took care of the details (flooring, plumbing, electrical, etc), roof, siding, & added a porch. Bonus - I ended up with a huge walk in closet plus another closet in the master bedroom. A complete makeover! Their team of contractors' skill set is superior and they are very respectful. We HIGHLY recommend Classic Design Homes for any remodeling or new build projects. For everything they have done, and 1 year has passed since the completion date, we absolutely LOVE our home. We HIGHLY recommend Classic Design Homes for any remodeling or new build projects.

We have been working with Classic Design Homes for 16 years and find them very trust worthy and easy to get along. The goal its always been to do whatever it takes to get the job done right.

As a Realtor, I have opportunity to see many homes. The work of Classic Design Homes stands out as exceptional. The company's focus on customer satisfaction is clear in their design and the quality of their craftsmanship. I have taken a detailed look at several projects (both complete and still under construction). I was not surprised to learn that much of their work comes from repeat and referral customers.

I defiantly would recommend them! People there where very professional, and nice. Did a great job could not be happier !

I hired Classic Design Homes several times over the past 5 years. 2010-2015. One of the first design projects was a patio. I had a roof put over the patio and vinyl solid fencing around with lights and fans on the ceiling. The original patio was enlarged and we had stamped concrete installed. It is absolutely beautiful. The next project included putting large wooden beams across our living room ceiling, installing wood flooring throughout the house, installed new countertops in kitchen, texturing and specialized painting in living room, kitchen and dining room. They designed and built a man cave in the basement, designed and totally remodeled my main bath as well as turning a small bedroom into a beautifully designed and functional laundry room. The final project was a new great room wall with stone fireplace, custom built in bookshelves and cabinets, window seats on either side of fireplace. It is stunning. Also had specialized lighting installed on beams to feature the new wall. Also installed a flat screen tv above the fireplace. I would just like to say that I would never hesitate to use them for any job, Not only is thier work professional and done well, but it was all done in a timely manner. If someone said they would be here, they were!!! Every worker that came into my home was courteous, helpful and always wore booties and cleaned up very well....never a mess left anywhere. It may be just a small thing, but the crew would always bring my trash can up to the house from the curb if it was out and if anyone saw me carrrying heavy bags up the stairs from the garage, help was always offered. I can provide photos of any or all of the above upon request and would be happy to do so! George and Jeff Ford are exceptionally nice people, with integrity and they know how to do just exactly what you need done. If you don't know...they will design it for you!

Jeff Ford was very professional throughout the process of evaluating and designing my project. He was very adept at listening to my ideas and concerns and translating that into detailed plans for the project. He designed a two level stand alone garage, storage area, and indoor batting cage. It suits my needs perfectly and fit the topography of my lot. I would highly recommend working with Jeff to those that have a cutom project that require some imagination.

We had a complete bathroom remodel. They were extremely helpful through every step of the process and kept us up to date with ETAs. Every employee or contractor that entered our home showed kindness and professionalism. The process took awhile, as expected, but we love our new bathroom and couldn't be happier with how everything went.

We have been working with Classic Design Homes for a short time, but I am very impressed with there attention to detail and response to us as a subcontractor when we have question on a job. Look forward to working with this company in the future.

Professional- George and Jeff know their trade and their clients jobs inside and out. They always utilize the best building practices. Quality - Classic Design is always choosing quality products at the best price not what is the cheapest available. Courteous - Promptly return e-mails and phone calls. Classic - They typically use time tested materials and practices not the newest untested fad. Value - You can always find someone to build cheaper but you won't find someone who builds better.

We hired Classice designs to redo our condo's flooring from carpet to hardwood. They were exstremely helpfull when we were unsure on what type of wood to use from surface style to the coloring. They accomidated our work schedule and arrived promptly as they had promised. It only took 2 days from tearout of the carpeting to the finished product, which involved the kitchen, diningroom, livingroom and sundroom. They were the nicnest group of guys, so polite and so diligent in their work. We have recommended them to our friends for any and all projects. We are looking to have the bathrooms tiled and they will be our only call.
