Yes — residential is our core focus, but we also take on light commercial work. If you own a small commercial property in Delaware County and need roofing, flooring, siding, or general construction, call us. We'll walk the property and tell you honestly whether it fits our scope.

Yes. When severe weather hits Delaware, Powell, Westerville, or anywhere in our service area, we respond fast. Our storm damage repair service covers everything from emergency tarping and board-ups to full roof replacement and siding repair.

We also help homeowners navigate the insurance claim process when applicable. Call us directly at (740) 417-1391 for emergency situations — we pick up.

Our home base is Delaware, OH 43015, and we regularly work throughout Delaware County and Central Ohio. That includes Westerville, Powell, Dublin, Marion, Marysville, and surrounding communities.

Not sure if we cover your area? Text or call (740) 417-1391 — if it's within a reasonable drive, the answer is probably yes.

Both. Our general contracting service means we can manage your entire project — coordinating trades, timelines, materials, and inspections so you don't have to. Or, if you already have a GC in place and just need a specific trade like roofing or flooring installation, we can handle that too.

Most of our clients prefer the full-service approach because it's simpler and faster. One point of contact from day one to final walkthrough.

Small jobs are welcome here. Our handyman and odd job service exists specifically for repairs and improvements that don't require a full remodel. Patching drywall, fixing a door, minor carpentry, small tile work — we bring the same quality to a 2-hour job that we bring to a 2-month project.

No job is "too small" to be done right.

Pricing & Estimates
4 Questions

Yes — estimates are always free. We'll walk your property, understand your goals, and give you a clear written breakdown before any work begins. No vague ballpark numbers, no surprise costs buried in fine print.

Schedule your free estimate here or call us directly at (740) 417-1391. Most estimates are scheduled within a few business days.

Roofing costs vary widely based on square footage, roof pitch, material choice, and the extent of damage. Minor repairs might run a few hundred dollars. A full residential replacement on a typical Delaware County home generally lands somewhere in the $7,000–$16,000 range depending on those factors.

The only honest way to give you a number is to look at your specific roof. Book a free inspection and we'll give you exact figures in writing — no pressure, no obligation.

We accept check, cash, and major credit cards. For larger projects, we typically structure payments in milestones — a deposit at contract signing, a progress payment mid-project, and final balance at completion. You never pay in full upfront.

Have questions about a specific payment arrangement? Bring it up during your estimate walkthrough and we'll work something out.

Yes. When storm damage is involved, we work alongside homeowners through the insurance claim process. We document the damage thoroughly and can provide the detailed scopes of work that adjusters need. We don't act as your public adjuster, but we make sure you have everything to support your claim.

Scheduling & Process
4 Questions

Call or text us at (740) 417-1391, or fill out the contact form with a quick description of your project. We'll get back to you — usually the same day — to schedule a free estimate walkthrough.

At the walkthrough, Josh or a member of our crew will assess the scope, ask about your timeline and budget, and follow up with a written estimate. From there, it's your call on how to proceed. No pressure, no hard sell.

Before any work begins, you'll know the full scope, schedule, and payment structure. We show up on the agreed start date. You'll have a direct line to us throughout the project — no chasing down updates or wondering what's happening.

At the end, we do a final walkthrough with you to make sure everything meets your expectations. If something isn't right, we fix it before we consider the job done. See what Delaware County homeowners say about the experience.

It depends heavily on scope. A bathroom remodel might take 1–2 weeks. A full kitchen gut-and-rebuild often runs 3–5 weeks. A whole-home renovation or addition can take 2–4 months. We give you a realistic timeline in writing before we start — not an optimistic guess.

Weather, permit timing, and material lead times can affect schedules. When something shifts, we tell you right away. No surprises.

Not necessarily. For exterior work like roofing, siding, or deck building, you don't need to be present. For interior work, most homeowners prefer to be available at least at the start and end of each day — but it's not required. We discuss access and security arrangements before we begin.

Some homeowners in Delaware County are at work all day and we handle everything without interrupting their schedule. That works fine for us.

Warranties & Licensing
4 Questions

Yes. Every project comes with a workmanship warranty. The length and terms depend on the type of work — roofing and exterior work typically carry manufacturer warranty coverage on materials in addition to our labor warranty. We spell out exactly what's covered in your written contract before work begins.

If something fails because of how it was built — not because of misuse or unrelated damage — we come back and make it right. That's not a marketing promise; it's how we've built our reputation in Delaware County one job at a time.

Second Chance Construction LLC is a registered LLC in Ohio and carries general liability insurance. You should ask any contractor you hire for proof of insurance — and we'll provide ours without hesitation. Never let an uninsured contractor work on your home.

Have questions about our coverage? Ask during your estimate walkthrough and we'll show you the documentation directly.

Most work is performed by our direct crew — people who work with us consistently and understand our standards. When a specialized trade is brought in, it's a trusted subcontractor we've vetted and worked with before. Not a stranger found on a bid board the day before your project starts.

This is one of the core reasons clients in Delaware, Westerville, and Powell keep coming back. Learn more about Josh Gregg and how Second Chance Construction operates.

Call us. Immediately. We do a final walkthrough at the end of every project specifically to catch anything that isn't right. If you notice something after we've left, we want to know about it — and we address it. We don't ghost clients after the contract is signed.

The final payment milestone is tied to your sign-off, which means you always have leverage if something needs attention. Read what our customers say about how we handle the whole experience.
