DGK Home Solutions to the Rescue!!…read more The Tuesday after Memorial Day (May 26, 2026) we started a residential residing project at my son's house in the Cincinnati area. We planned to remove the existing wood siding and replace with new vinyl. We had purchased all the materials needed (or so we thought) ahead of time. I live 5 hours north of my son and we had 4 weeks of time to complete the project due to my travel plans. We started demo on Tuesday May 26 and by Jun 7 had the front and sides of the house and garage siding removed and had installed siding on the face and sides of the garage. We were struggling to get the siding level from front to sides of the garage and the sides looked very wavy. At this point I realized we were not going to complete the project before I had to leave on June 22. On June 8 I put out a request for help on Yelp. That very same evening Nancy from DGK called me and discussed our project. The next day James came out to look at the project and gave us an on-the-spot estimate. I had one other company coming to look at the project and told James we would get back to him by the end of the week. June 12 (Friday) we agreed to the contract with DGK. On Monday June 15 the crew arrived early morning to start the work. They removed the old wood siding on the rear of the house and removed an old deck that we had not gotten too. They applied new OSB over the Celotex sheeting on all sides of the house and installed new house wrap. I was amazed at what they completed in a day. James explained the OSB would give a better surface to nail to and help reduce the waviness we had seen on the garage walls we sided. On Tuesday June 13, the crew installed new PVC 1x4 window trim on all windows and installed siding on the house front and back and right side. We ran short of siding so they could not finish the left side of the house. I had not calculated the amount of siding needed correctly. We ordered an additional 10 square to complete the project. Unfortunately, it took almost 10 days to receive the siding. James stayed in constant contact with us during the project, and once the siding was in the crew picked it up from the supplier and completed the installation. They had to redo the sides of the garage we completed installing new OSB and then house wrap/siding. By July 3rd the entire siding project was complete including reinstallation of the gutter downspouts and electrical meter and comms boxes. James worked with us on the pricing of the additional siding needed to install (10 square). We still need to install lights and wrap the porch posts. In the end we were very happy with the project, and I was relieved that the house was complete and weatherproof for the kids. I would recommend DGK to anyone looking for a siding project in the area.

Where do I start. My house was severely damaged due to a Contractor leaving my ridge line open…read moreduring a storm. DGK swooped in like they were saints and I used the to fix all the damage. They stated that they could have us back in my house by 18 December 2025 and if I pay 23,000 more work won't stop due to insurance. That did not happen. This issue started in July 2025 and DGK still had not finished my house when I fired them early February 2026. 7 months of them dragging my along. They would do very little work then ghost us for weeks. Ignoring text messages and phone calls. They kept saying they need more money. When asked to see invoices, purchase orders etc James Wocher told me that's not how it works. Really? I, the customer can't see where MY money is going. My final issue that set me over board was they neglected to put insulation in my roof during this record setting cold winter causing me to have Propane filled up 5 times now since December 8 2025. James stated it's not their fault and I must have a leak. I paid another contractor two months ago to check for leaks and weather my crawl space but James still won't take responsibility. Then more water damage was seen and DGK refused to send someone out to stop the leak instead stating I don't need their insurance information or license and bonding information. All required to be given to a client. After having MY insurance access the damage it was found that DGK did not install a proper ice and water barrier in the valley of my roof and since no insulation was in my attic the ice and water entered my home and destroyed more of my home. It was also identified that none of the insulation they did install is not up to code. The two vents they replaced for me in both bathrooms is also not up to code (not vented anywhere). This company is stealing money and not fixing what they were supposed to up to code. James claims the refund from the insurance for the 23,000 I paid belongs to them which is not even remotely theirs. I have not seen an invoice or anything proving they used all of the over 150,000 my insurance paid them. Do not waste money or time with this company. They also tried to instal a French door without insulating it. Really? There's plenty more to tell but I'll leave it at this. Update: James is again claiming false statements when all issues were identified by Insurance adjuster and licensed home inspector. I had to pay for the insulation myself which is over 5,000 dollars that was sent to DGK to complete. Where is my reimbursement for that. We will let the law decide who's in the wrong. All code violation are very real and the fact he chose to bash my review proves he's reaching too far on this. As for the ICE issue, we had three workers call us and threaten my family if DGK did not pay them for work done at my home. One stated they had no papers to be here is why James won't pay him then threatened to paint my house all black. I'd say I have a leg to stand on when it comes to that.

Mark made two visits to my house and suggested a bunch of trees & plants to make a screen in the…read moreback yard where I had taken down some old trees. His suggestions were totally wrong. The trees suggested violate DP&L's guidelines for planting near the wires that run across the back and down the side of the lot. When I figured that out and cancelled the order Mr. Webber refused to credit me for the plants that I didn't take delivery on because they couldn't be used. He made the suggestions and then took no responsibility when the material couldn't be used. He also misrepresented what he was selling - touting a bare root plant sale and then selling me balled and burlap wrapped bushes. He also should have known that I was going to have to do a lot of work to remove roots and none of the plants should have been scheduled for spring delivery. All in all he has a bad attitude and isn't as smart as he make it sound on his radio show. Find someone else to buy from. Zot

I had dozens of responses offering yo do it but was gunshy from my first two (bad) choices. The owner of Solid Ground Contracting contacted me and showed up later that same day to take a look.

He worked 3 more days finishing the job, no complaining, no renegotiating, he just did what he agreed to do. He is on his second job for me today at another location. He is now in my saved contacts and will be my go to man in future needs.

We visited their showroom to look at different slab options, including their collection of "orphans" that are available at extremely competitive prices. We were trying to match specific colors and didn't find the right one, so Charlie referred us to some other granite dealers in the area, where we found the perfect fit for our project. One of the crew came out to take measurements, and then we were able to schedule the installation to fit our very busy schedules. They did superb work, pricing was very reasonable, and Charlie was easily accessible and super responsive throughout the entire process. Would definitely recommend Arco Iris for your project.
