Work With Us

What Clients Say

I and members of my family had occupied the home since 1960. It was very dear to me and I shared my love and attachment of my childhood home with John. He immediately embraced my memories and took great care to keep me abreast of the upgrades and renovations while still maintaining the character of the property. John's creativity and expertise in the area of remodeling far surpasses anything that would be considered to be normal or just average. He would be an asset to any project.

Linda Eastgate — Home renovation

John was an invaluable asset in helping us evaluate options and showing us exactly how we could keep our house in Columbus as a viable rental. He explained the costs and reasons for each part of work that could be done to prepare the house for renters and how it could help avoid issues and unnecessary maintenance costs once they moved in. The work was done exactly as he described it and our renters have been very happy in the space now for 3 years.

David & Jamie Franklin Park — Rental conversion

After months of research and shopping prices, we hired HIVE to tear down the old deck and build a new one. They did a fantastic job. It was a pleasure to have John over at the house, chat about all of our options, and answer all of our questions. We were very happy with the process and the finished product. We highly recommend HIVE!
