Georgia Restoration And Construction Pros

Run, don’t walk, away from this company! GARCP advertises it’s a licensed contractor, but it is NOT. Their website says they are "Professional contractors and construction experts you can count on." They are neither. We hired GARCP to update our small, 2-bedroom cabin and finish the basement. They told us the project would take 3-4 months, but after an entire year, they still could not finish. The first PM they gave us, Jim, stopped supervising our project but claimed work was being completed. We were shocked to find almost none of the work he told us was completed had been done. What little work GARCP started was incorrect, and they had damaged and destroyed our property- furniture, decking, screen and storm doors. When Jim left the company, our home was in shambles. The owner of GARCP, Daryl, and his wife Leanne (the General Manager) were unapologetic and said GARCP was not responsible for its own employee’s negligence. By this time, Jim called us to advise our project was not completed because GARCP did not have the money to order materials even though we had paid them almost the entire contract total. He claimed he left GARCP because they owed him money. When we communicated our concerns about this, Leanne did not deny it and stated "Well sometimes you have to rob Peter to pay Paul." The second PM, Brad, promised to get our project moving. However, more months passed with little to no progress. We were suddenly told Brad also left the company, Daryl would take over our project himself, and we would be back in the house by Thanksgiving. Some progress did begin to take place. However, every time GARCP took 1 step forward, they took 2 steps back. Work was completed improperly. GARCP routinely damaged other elements of our home and new work it had just installed. Eventually, all our communication with GARCP was turned over to a new person, Sam, without GARCP ever telling us he was the new PM. This was especially frustrating because we had to pay our interior designer to re-educate a fourth person on the project. Sam led us to believe he was on site supervising our project. We found out later he rarely, if ever, actually visited our site. After promising but failing to complete our home by Thanksgiving, Sam and Daryl told us our home would be ready to move back in before Christmas. So, my husband drove up to move us in. However, when he arrived, not one room in the house was completed. It was a construction zone. There was not even 1 fully functioning bathroom. The sink in the master bathroom was leaking. The brand new gas stove wasn’t functional because GARCP had not completed the installation (and later said they were not capable of installing it). There were no smoke detectors in the basement. All the electrical outlets in the kitchen were hanging from the walls. The kitchen faucet was installed improperly. An entire tile wall had to be redone. The list goes on. When I asked Sam if he knew the house was unlivable when he told us we could move in for Christmas, he said "Well, what is your standard for livable?" A plumber GARCP hired to work on our home contacted us saying GARCP had not paid him for this and many other projects, and he had no choice but to lien our property even though we had paid all GARCP’s bills. When we confronted Daryl, he emailed us that the plumber was an "idiot and meth head" and would not be able to lien our house. We quit hoping GARCP would be able to complete our home and hired someone else to finish it. GARCP claims all that is left is punch work; but the cost for their shoddy work to be fixed and completed is over $40,000. Photos below showing how we found the home when they said it was ready to be moved into.

We wanted to expand our deck, which meant extending our roof as well. Other contractors reviewed the requirements and wouldn't touch it, not only did Georgia Restoration and Construction take on the job they did an awesome job. The extension added 210 sq ft. The job required framing/roofing/new pillars/new siding/painting,etc.. The GARCP team did a great job managing the various needed crews and the unusually high volume of local rain fall. No construction job is without a few flaws, the important thing is that the issue is acknowledged and corrected. The team did a great job solving all issues to our upmost satisfaction. Highly recommended in our book!

Very courteous and professional, they provided samples of products without being pushy. We made decisions on our time with no pressure. Service provided in a timely manner with top quality workmanship. Job was not finished until we were 100% satisfied, would definitely use these guys again, and would recommend to anyone in need of new siding. We went with the Diamond Kote and could not be happier with the results!

GA Restoration did an excellent job treating the minor mold problem we had in our bathroom down to the subflooring and joists as well as completely renovating our bathroom. They arranged multiple contractors who all did an amazing job. We worked with Sam and he was very responsive and communicative with us through the project. They completed the project the week before Christmas, a busy season, and during below freezing weather without delay. I would work with GA Restoration again and recommend them to anyone for their restoration or construction needs.

My family hired Georgia Restoration to renovate our family cabin. Our cabin is very special to our family, and this company has shown no care for it at all. Initially, we were told the project would take about six months and would be finished in the summer. Following this, each time my family checked on the work they were doing, they had made absolutely no progress. We were then promised it would be done by thanksgiving, which it was not. The final straw was when we were guaranteed it would be finished by Christmas and my father went to check on it less than a week before we were scheduled to arrive, it was not at all completed. We had to change all of our travel plans and missed an entire year of family holidays and traditions at our family home, as well as wasted an entire years worth of payment on a home we could not use. At this point we gave up on the company. Not only were they late, they showed no care or respect to my family and our home and the work they did complete was not adequate and damaged our home. To top things off, they claim to be a licensed company but they are not-research it.

I have worked with the owner Daryl. You cannot, and I stress, you cannot find a better company to work with. This company went out of their way to help me when I needed it most. I was in a pinch for time and needed a concrete pad ASAP. Daryl went out of his way to make sure it got done. Thanks to Daryl and GARCP, I was able to get this done quickly and affordably. It troubles me to see some of the negative reviews that have been posted for this business and the owner. Its troubling because I personally know the owner. I also know that they would not intentionally do a bad job because of their morals and values, as well as, their standing in the community. I have been in outside sales for the majority of my life and I can tell you this... no business is perfect. However, this is one of the closest I have ever done business with or had the privilege of knowing. They continue to grow and have an impact in their community. Great people and overall awesome business. Thank you, thank you, thank you. All of you are awesome and a pleasure to know and work with. I will continue to recommend them to everyone I know!!!!
