In 1998 Gluth Construction completed our home. They had to overcome several challenges, difficult build site, unique one of a kind design and a picky owner. John Gluth, his sons and other workers met every challenge completing our home in a reasonable time and with high quality standards. Their trim and finish work is some of the best we have ever seen in any custom home. We were pleased enough that one year later we contracted John to build an additional building on our site. They were again fast, reliable and quality builders.

We would use them again and recommend their work.

Gluth Construction built our new home in '95-'96. I will way it was an easy and enjoyable time in our lives, thanks to Gluth Construction. They are real professionals in every sense of the work. Excellent workmanship has got to be their motto. I would recommend Gluth Construction for all your building needs. I was always greeted with a smile by everyone on this crew. I would hire them again. Remember, they are Professionals.

My husband and I had heard horror stories about the process of building a new house. Struggles with contractors not showing up, struggles with deadlines not being meet, and struggles with budgets not being kept were all among the headaches. I can honestly say that the experience we had with building our new house in 2002/2003 was nothing but exciting and enjoyable. We credit our positive experience 100% to John Gluth Building Contractors. We cannot say enough about this wonderful organization and the quality of their work.

Integrity and Honesty. John Gluth Building Contractors were upfront and hones with us through out our entire building process. There were no surprises for us. No surprises as to the quality of work. No surprises as to the timeline things would be done in. No surprises as to the budget we had planned for. As for us, we wanted to be very involved in the building of our house. John Gluth not only allowed us to do so, but, they made it easy for us. The lines of communications were always open and we felt comfortable being involved in the building of our home. Most importantly, we knew we were always getting the straight answers we were looking for. The knowledge and experience John Gluth and his sons have of their trade is unmatched. They guided us in our decisions along the way and helped us make choices that we were happy with in the end. Such a wonderful working relationship meant the world to us and , we feel, is a rare find.

Dependable. On November 10, 2002, a tornado hit the city of Port Clinton, Ohio. Its destruction was like nothing Port Clinton has ever seen. My husband and I are self employed with an apartment rental business. The tornados path took the entire roof off of a 21 unit apartment complex that we own and operate. We were left totally overwhelmed with the magnitude of work that lay upon us on the morning of November 11, 2002. John Gluth and crew where currently making wonderful progress on our home on Catawba Island, but that seemed unimportant to us at a time when so many of our tenants were left homeless and the state of our business was in such turmoil. With one phone call, the entire Gluth team changed gears and rallied behind us in our effort to get the apartments repaired. Within the day on November 11th (just 12 hours after the tornado had hit), building supplies were delivered to our apartment lawn and within days an entire roof was again covering our apartments. When we think back to such a stressful time for us, we still are left in disbelief of how hardworking and compassionate John Gluth, John Gluth Jr., and their entire crew was in helping us. And...without skipping a beat, as soon as the apartments were back to normal, the progress once again continued on our new home. This gives the word dependable a whole new meaning. Unbelievable! What a blessing they were to us!

Committed to Quality. Everything John Gluth Building Contractors did for us at our home and in our apartments was done with superior quality. Their motto of doing things not always the easy way, but the right way sets them apart from other contractors we had spoken with. Everything from the framing of our home to the finish work was done with precision and detail. In our opinion, it is this extra attention to quality that sets a John Gluth home apart from the rest. It is definitely those extra touches that capture the attention of the visitors to our home!

The building of our home was an entirely new experience for us. This was the first home we had built and we were apprehensive in starting a process that was so unfamiliar to us. John Gluth Building Contractors made our experience an excellent one. We are extremely happy with our home and look forward to filling it with memories with our family for a very long time. We would highly recommend John Gluth to anyone with a project big or small. In our opinion, their integrity, dependability, and commitment to quality are unmatched by any one in the business.
