The Douglas Company Testimonials Print E-mail

“…The Douglas Company’s approach to dealing with complex issues as they occurred, is a large part of the reason for my willingness to recommend them to others for future projects. On occasions where our project experienced difficulties with various city or state agencies they acted seamlessly to protect our best interests with results that were more than satisfactory.”

-Mitchell Bleznak

“…My company’s limited expertise regarding large scale construction projects was a big factor that went into our selection of The Douglas Company. Their ability to take our rough thoughts and quickly turn them into workable ideas and concepts that we could understand further cemented our relationship. They have always shared our passion for, “what is best for our residents and how can we make them feel more at home.” They have gone to great lengths to continually improve the design of buildings to allow residents more choices and freedoms as they move through their individual routines…”

-Mohammad Qazi

“…The Douglas Company provided design and building specification that saved us money and allowed us to complete the project ahead of schedule and with no material changes. Their site supervisor was an experienced and cooperative individual and the entire construction team was very appreciative of uniqueness of long-term care operations and worked well with our staff to minimize any potential compromise of patient care…”

-Randall J. Bufford

“…I have had wonderful experiences working with The Douglas Company on various types of Senior Living. They have exhibited ingenuity and integrity in helping solve intricate problems, always with the client’s best interest at heart. In one specific instance, when another general contractor defaulted during construction of four facilities, The Douglas Company stepped in, at my recommendation, and quickly cleaned up what would have proven to be a nightmare for both myself and my client.

Over time, they have become a trusted partner of my firm…”

-Bo Russ

“...Until recently, we had never had a need for a general contractor like them. However, my most recent project called for a firm that would allow me to build twenty-eight homes, in short order, while not impacting my normal routine.

I found The Douglas Company to be self directed, able to communicate effectively, and meet even the most demanding challenges. During the construction of South East Toledo Homes they surpassed all project goals, much to our delight! Even when things beyond their control should have impacted the construction timetable, they managed to develop solutions to keep everything on schedule…

It is with my best intentions that I recommend to you The Douglas Company. They are truly a group of professionals which will allow you to sleep at night!”

-William Farnsel

“…This project consisted of a 16 private unit addition with dining room, spa, nurses’ station, lounge, office, break room, mechanical rooms and 2 connection corridors. The facility remained fully operational during the entire process, not to mention during the parking lot relocation. The site was very tight and very little room for scheduling errors. Both aspects were handled flawlessly by The Douglas Company.

The Douglas staff worked very well with all of our levels of administration including our construction and architect team. I was very pleased with the road to completion as well as the final outcome. Overall, this was a well planned and executed project by The Douglas Company and a great way to start our relationship with them…”

-Derrick Zajac

“…Going into the project, I and the Department of Health had apprehension about your ability to perform such an undertaking with residents in need of special care occupying the very places that needed renovating. Again, from your field staff to your project managers, I felt that they always looked out for the best interest of my residents and staff. I was impressed with the manner that was skillfully deployed regarding state regulations and approvals.

The attention to details that was shown is often lacking in today’s hurry up world. Your people expected much of themselves and it was enjoyable to see the pride that they brought to the project everyday….”

-Jim Branscum

“…Asbury Glen was a particularly difficult development due to various problems with the site and an extremely compressed construction schedule. In fact, the schedule was so compressed, that many of their competitors were not interested in even attempting to build the homes. But from the beginning they confidently stated that they would meet, or even exceed our compressed schedule, and they did so in a fashion rarely seen in today’s contractors!

…I could continue on with more glowing accounts of The Douglas Company, but will instead simply say that I would recommend The Douglas Company without reservation for any type of habitational project. I have tremendous respect for their collective ability, and even today, if a problem arises I know I can count on them for quick, correct answers…”

-Steve J. Boone

“…I employed The Douglas Company to control every aspect of this project. They stayed within the budget and finished two months ahead of schedule. They fulfilled my desire to use local and minority subcontractors whenever they could, and in certain instances helped some of those same subcontractors achieve new levels of productivity.

…I would encourage anyone looking for a professional and ethical General Contractor to contact The Douglas Company…"
