My wife and I built our home in 1992. We had recently decided it was time to upgrade our existing vinyl siding to Hardie cement siding. Finding a contractor who was willing to take on the project was the first hurdle. A couple after seeing some of the heights involved never even bid. We are very glad we chose Structure. They did the job we wanted done and the way we wanted it done. They were very professional and knowledgeable. They kept us informed as the project progressed. They started and ended on time. All work met our expectations. Payment terms were agreeable with no hidden costs. Their employees were both professional looking and acting. We would recommend Structure to anyone with a construction project.Guy and Sheree Adams

Over the past 8 years, we have used Structure Remodeling on 3 different occasions, most importantly the complete construction of our new family home. Donald and his crew were always professional and courteous. Carrie has always been prompt on answering our questions and returning our calls. During the construction of our home, they were very flexible concerning changes and frequently offered suggestions on how to improve the design of the house. The home was finished on time and on budget. It has now been two and a half years since the construction was completed and we are still very pleased about the quality of the home. We have not had to call the crew back out to fix any construction related issues. We are looking at possibly either building a second home on our farm or remodeling or current home and Structure Remodeling WILL be the builder.

I\'ve worked with Donald and his crew at Structure Remodeling many times over the last 5-6 years. He\'s done several remodeling jobs to my house including: removing several load-bearing walls to open up the space, full kitchen remodel, and a nice large deck addition on the back of my house. I\'ve always been extremely pleased with the quality of work, and I am always receiving complements from guests. Working with Donald is always a pleasure, and often it\'s his ideas and knowledge that make the vision a reality. I always recommend Donald and Structure Remodeling to friends, and have never heard anything but glowing reviews from them as well. It\'s for all these reasons that I continue to choose Structure Remodeling for any job, large or small.

I heard about Donald and Structure Remodeling thru a friend who had work done by them. I was impressed by the work they did. I contacted Donald to do some work for me, this was to include new windows, new siding, painting and new decks out in back. They did a fantastic job. I\'ve been told by several of my neighbors that the house never looked so good. He has done other work for me as well and I would not trust anyone else to work on my home. I would recommend Donald and Structure Remodeling to anyone who needs to have any type work done on their home - inside or out.Eileen Cassingham

I would recommend Structure Remodeling to anyone with a construction project. Donald and his crew have painted my house, put siding up where needed, replaced flooring and painted the inside. There were several areas I had not even been aware of that needed repairing in the house, Donald pointed them out to me, suggesting ideas. They have also repaired my free standing garage. I am very pleased with all the work that has been done on my house. A very trustworthy, knowledgeable and professional group to work with, no matter the size of the project. I would not think of using any other contractor. Gerri BainsGeraldine Bains

We had our deck totally rebuilt with part of it as a covered porch. New gutters and fascia boards were replaced, as well as, so many other details. Structure Remodeling was very professional, very hard working, and provided detailed work. Donald and the crew kept us informed about problem areas they were finding. We appreciated this information because one problem area would affect another area. They dealt with rain issues throughout the project. We are grateful for all the work that Donald and his crew have done.Mary Edna Sharp

We hired Structure Remodeling in a pretty involved remodeling of our 1970\' circa home. The project included a complete kitchen renovation, building a large screened-in front porch and updating a bathroom. I must say all three turned out much better than we ever dreamed. Donald and his crews did a fantastic job. There were no surprise costs, the project started and was completed on time and they always showed up when Donald said they would. With Structure Remodeling you get the "General Contractor" and the "Skilled People all in one without the duplicated costs. I do and will continue to recommend Structure Remodeling to anyone who will listen. If we ever decide to build a new house from scratch, they\'ll be the first people we\'ll call.Chris and Rita Byrom

After ten years of condo living, we decided to move back to our house which we had been leasing out to European military officers and their families. The only drawback at our advancing ages was that all the bedrooms in the house were upstairs. We thought that maybe we could add on a ground floor bedroom. We had four companies look and give us estimates and ideas. When Donald came and helped us assess the situation and looked at different options he had some interesting ideas and we liked his price. The house had an attached garage which could logically be modified to a ground floor bedroom suite. A detached garage could first be built in the back since there was plenty of room in the back yard. First he built the new garage and then helped us design a very nice master bedroom suite to be constructed in the original garage space. He located matching siding for the garage and the part of the house where the original garage door had been. He also helped us locate very skilled subcontractors to install the hardwood flooring in the new room and he and one of his men installed the tile in the new bathroom including a large shower with all glass walls and doors. The finished product looked very professional and it appeared as if it had been originally built that way. The end product was of superb quality and working with Donald and his crew was easy and quite rewarding. He often offered ideas that we accepted and any problems that were encountered were quickly solved. I have recommended Structure Remodeling to friends and they too have been quite satisfied with the quality and ethical standards that they experienced with Donald and his crew. (He also has a highly skilled office manager, Kerri, who contributes substantially to the success of the company). We would recommend Structure Remodeling for any of your home remodeling or modification needs.Gerald and Judy Haynes

I met Donald Esslinger in 2005 when I lost a valuable item and Donald went out of his way, way out of his way, to see the item returned to me. I needed some work done around my house as I was doing a remodel. I asked Donald to do some work and now six years and 5 different jobs later I still call Donald when I need work done. Structure Remodeling can do it all, I have had Structure do multiple jobs, including a recent detached garage build. I have always been happy and will continue to use Structure Remodeling for all my work. Oh! One more thing, due to the way I met Donald he and I have always sealed the deal with a handshake, not one contract in six plus years! After you meet Donald you\'ll understand why. A Great Thanks to Donald and all the Structure Remodeling Team!Jay & Kathy Walton

Donald and Structure Remodeling has provided outstanding quality, service and responsiveness over seven years. Structure Remodeling actually saved our home from serious damage by their in debt engineering analysis and technical home building knowledge. Not only did they design and build complex structures for our 6,000 sqr foot home but managed the installation of a metal roof at our corporate office in research park. I highly recommend Structure Remodeling for you construction needs. Guy JuzangGuy Juzang

In the last 5 years, we have used Structure Remodeling 2 times. This year we hired Donald to renovate our rental property. Donald was very helpful to suggest different ideas that looked great. He was very cooperative and trustworthy. He started the job and finished in a timely manner. The crew he used were very competent. Carrie, the office manager, keep things on target. We were very pleased with all their work.Jerry and Sandra Beal

We bought an existing home that required many upgrades in order to meet our standards. Many of the upgrades we did on our own, however, we really wanted a large concrete covered porch that was grand feeling and knew that job was too big for us to handle. We met with Donald on several occassions and due to the total cost of the project, we separated it into 3 projects until completed. Donald was wonderful through the whole process and provided us with a very large dream porch with high ceiling and columns. When we thought there was an issue with the roof of the porch on a weekend, Donald came right out with his roofer and it was determined that it was not a result of the construction, but instead was poor work done by a someone previous to our involvement with Donald. In any event, Donald fixed it for us then and there. Any work we do again on a house will only be done by Structure Remodelng (Donald). Also, we would be remiss if we did not mention how wonderful it was to work with Carrie in his office. We ended up having to move out of the state and our house sold within 24 hours of being put on the market. I largely attribute the quick sell to the wonderful back porch. We will be moving back to Huntsville within the year and we are sure we will be using Donald again... on our next house.Eric and Kathy Heaton

We were in a quandary since we did not know what to do next. I remembered that I saw on Drake Avenue some construction work being done on a house and that there was a sign from the construction company on the property. I stopped at the house and met a gentlemen who identified himself as the home owner. When I asked him about Structure Remodeling he told me that the work was terrific and that he would have more work later and that he would not have anyone else but them do it. We made an appointment with Donald and after spending the better part of a morning in which he surveyed the major portion of the damage; we had the feeling we were dealing with the right person. Donald cautioned us that this undertaking would be serious and difficult because of the nature of the damage and the unknowns once areas were exposed. He soon proposed a bid with some considerations as to how much damage would be exposed once the renovation was underway. When the renovation started and the damage was exposed he quickly assessed which kinds of costs overruns would occur and talked with us about how it could be approached so to minimize costs. In each case he presented ways in which he could minimize the costs and this always happened throughout the life of the project. The crew working with him was efficient, seemed to know all of the ramifications of the intricacies of the total project and was the funniest group of individuals one could hope to assemble. In concert with Donald we would plan a new strategy for an unforeseen problem only to turn around to find that Donald and the crew had solved the problem generally at half of the expected cost. One of the greatest areas of damage had occurred in the structure of the top floor of the house where two rooms and a porch are cantilevered for better than twenty feet. The crew hoisted four giant manufactured boards, which were then secured by several massive steel attachments that Donald had designed specifically for this job. Where ever renovation was necessary on the house the resultant work has made this a stronger, better- constructed house, in fact better and stronger than it was when it was built the first time. And don’t forget Kerri, who seems to be the lynch pin that keeps all of this working. Anyone reading this will note that we did not say that Structure Remodeling can walk on water, they can’t, but they are coming close. In a nano-second we would hire them for any future projects. \\Bruce and Susan Breckenridge

Doug and I have come to rely on Donald and his team for the last 8 years. They have done an excellent job on everything they have done. They do not hesitate to help us in everything from full remodels to small plumbing leaks. The whole team has definitely become family to us!Doug and Susan Ross

Wilma and I moved here from Virginia last year purchasing a home in Madison. Immediately we began looking for a contractor to build additional bookcases and add a year round room to the back of the home. After speaking with neighbors, we were given the number for Structure Remodeling. Donald came out and listened to our request of desires and drew up some plans. We spoke to a number of other contractors before deciding to go with Structure. They came up with the best design and the most workable rates for us. We could not be happier. The bookcases complement the existing architecture of the rooms and the sunroom is everything we wanted. We enjoy it early mornings and afternoons and rainy days. We also added a paved patio and pergola which has given added dimension to the back yard. Our retirement years here in this home with family and friends will be all the more enjoyable with the sunroom and pergola. We have not hesitated to give there name and number to others. Donald and his office staff and team were wonderful to work with from beginning to end. Everything done met and exceeded our expectations. We have already commissioned them to do another job for us. We gladly recommend Donald and the Structure Remodeling team to anyone needing construction work done. Thanks again team. Charles and Wilma CookeCharles and Wilma Cooke

When moving to Alabama from Pennsylvania, we didn\'t have a lot of time to pick out a house, so we settled on one that we knew would eventually need a kitchen remodel. Not being from the south, we had no idea how to find a trustworthy, knowledgeable, and capable contractor. We noticed our neighbors had used Structure Remodeling on two separate occasions, and after we asked them if they were happy with the work that was done, we called and had Donald come out to give us advice, and an estimate. We were immediately impressed with his professionalism, and knowledge level. We signed on to have Donald and his crew turn our divided kitchen and family room into an open area, including adding windows where there weren\'t any. We absolutely love the results, and would recommend Structure Remodeling to anyone looking to have home improvements done. We are already talking about what we would like Donald and his crew to do next in our home.Kelly & Phil Chase

Initial contact was in August 2012 when I watched their energetic crew working on the next door home. Donald provided an estimate for Vinyl replacement of existing siding. Donald said it would take some time to get the correct colors and because of their busy work schedule he would try to work me in between other large jobs. This was satisfactory to me. Siding replacement, soffit, eaves were to be replaced, repairs of some existing dry rot wood in windows and painting of all windows and existing wood trim work. I was well pleased with the work performed. Much of the work was done by one or two individuals at a time, but when the actual siding went on a full crew arrived and accomplished their job in short order. If there was a misunderstanding, it was quickly corrected. I would not hesitate to use Structure Remodeling again and would encourage others to use them if needed. I was extremely well pleased.

We highly recommend Structure remodeling. Donald is an honest, dependable business man who is great to work with. He does what he says he will do in a timely manner, stands behind his work and makes sure you are satisfied. He and his crew put in all new windows, Vinyl, columns and gutters on 2 houses for us. Carrie is a true asset to Donald. I felt like we became friends during our remodeling. She kept in touch with me and updated me every step of the way. I have recommended Structure Remodeling to several of my friends and will continue to do so.

Gwen

I contracted Structure Remodeling to put a new roof and new siding on my house and to replace the windows and put new siding on my stand-alone garage. Structure Remodeling managed to complete the entire job in 3 days and at a reasonable price. Ive had quite a few comments that my house is the prettiest one on the street. I would recommend Structure Remodeling for any remodeling job that you want to perform on your house.

Mel Overhulser

When we decided to remodel our basement my wife and I were very excited about the potential it had to improve our home. We had a general idea of what we wanted and fair understanding of what it might cost. I set out to get estimates and in all got three. The first was from a large, respectable company that came with many referrals. The company had a reputation for excellent work but at a premium. Sure enough they were way too high on their estimate. The next company was one I hadn’t heard much about and left me less than impressed. The builder had plenty of grand ideas but didn’t seem to be listening to and of ours. He too came in very high with his estimate. We were beginning to think we could not afford this project at this time. It was at this time that we called Donald at Structure Remodeling. A realtor friend had used him multiple times and had recommended we call them. Our friend sold houses in the range of $50,000 to well over a million and had always been spot on with her recommendations. My first impression was that he seemed to be a good listener with an honest demeanor. Donald came to our house and heard what we wanted and offered some great suggestions. His ideas were not only practical and aesthetically enhancing but were more cost feasible as well. When Structure Remodeling submitted their estimate it was about half as much as other the bids. My wife and I were quite surprised. So surprised we were a little concerned. Was this too good to be true? In hindsight we shouldn’t have been too surprised because I had done my homework and had a friend who used to build houses give me some idea of the costs. His costs were in line with Donald’s estimate.

We agreed to have Structure Remodeling do our job. I can honestly say that the whole experience from start to finish was a pleasant one. Donald and his men were there when they said they would be there and his subcontractors were all professional as well. From the very beginning Donald provided us his cell phone number to call him day or night should we have any questions. His office assistant, Kerry, was also very professional to work with as well. She made ordering supplies for our project easy. I remember her follow up call right after the project ended checking to see if we were satisfied with their work. I could tell they took pride in their work and wanted our experience to at least meet if not exceed expectations. I have recommended Structure Remodeling to other friends and am certain to call them for any future projects.

EREM Inc. has used Structure Remodeling for over five years on many of the properties that we manage. We have had great success in painting and carpentry from their company. Not only have they always been reliable , they cater to our residents with a courteous and helpful demeanor. We would most certainly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a contractor who takes pride in doing high-quality work.

Executive Real Estate Management

Donald worked with us to design a beautiful deck with gazebo from only a couple of crude sketches and pictures off the internet. He and his crew build things right, showing attention to quality and detail throughout the construction. The team was always couteous and professional. We were extremely pleased with the end product and have received numerous compliments from the visitors.

Jeff and Bonnie Flowers

We have hired Structure Remodeling for several different jobs. With each prodject we were very satisfied with the quality of service and their price was extremly competitive. Donald and his co-workers were always professional, prompt, and courteous. We definitely would recommend and hire Structure Remodeling again!

Jeff and Geraldine Bennett

The wonderful work done by Structure Remodeling has added so much to the comfort of our home. After the January tornado in Five Points, we found that we needed extensive repairs to pur house. Since we are in the Five Points Historic District, I knew that a contractor with experience working in a historic district would be necessary. The attention to detail and the quality or the workmanship exceeded my expectations. From the siding instalation, to the design and fabrication of the new cellar door, Donalds' knowlegde was a great asset to solving problems that we discovered as the repairs began. The paint work was meticulous. I highly recommend Structure Remodeling to anyone who wants very high quality work done at a reasonable price.

Carol Crosslin

We had just moved into a new house and wanted some things changed and upgraded. The work ranged from upgrading the soffit and fascia to vinyl/aluminum, repairing a privacy fence, repainting portions of the interior, to remodeling closets and adding cabinets/shelves for more efficient use of space. Donalds' team handled each one with care, professionalism and quality workmanship. Donald also worked with us to make sure we understood what options we might want to consider in some of the tasks..things we hadn't thought of. We are very pleased with the results and heartily recommend Structure Remodeling to anyone looking for a trustworthy contractor that does quality work.
