Editorial Review

Our Take on McCarty Customized Improvements, Ltd.

A licensed Columbus remodeler that lists decks, concrete and pergolas under one roof and names its city licences plainly. Ask for deck photos, since reviews focus on interiors.

    I manage the Outdoor Adventure Center at Ohio State University (OSUs indoor climbing gym on main campus).<br><br>We hired Travis McCarty and his team to execute phase I of our most recent renovations.<br><br>Travis and his men exceeded expectations every step of the way.<br><br>Demolishing 22 year old, 35ft concrete coated climbing walls was no small task. They finished the job on time (which is unheard of for any type of construction project). They left the jobsite spotless at the end of each workday normally spending an hour or so vacuuming, clearing debris, and keeping their tools incredibly organized.<br><br>What stood out the most was how Travis' team worked together to not miss a single detail. Having spent time with all of his team members, I learned that they were so genuine and far from the stereotypical construction worker.<br><br>McCarty Customized Improvements set the bar incredibly high and is a business that I would recommend for all home improvements, structural work, and especially for those tough jobs that nobody else knows how to do.<br><br>Travis and his men not only completed the work of their original quote, they jumped in and helped with the construction of the new walls as the timeline for the grand re-opening began to look grim.<br><br>Talk about seeing a project through and going the extra mile.<br><br>If it wasn't for Travis and his men, the OAC surely would not have opened on the first day of classes, Aug. 25th. The community and all involved will never forget the extra work that MCI took on to bring a space back to life that means so much to so many.

    I hired Travis McCarty to secure my house to its foundation on July 31, 2026 in order to sell the house August 7, 2026. The quality of work was poor. The structural engineering inspector failed the project resulting in rework that postponed the closing date. This ultimately resulted in the termination of the sale contract. Not one person from McCarty Customized Improvements will return my calls. I was billed $5,250 for one days welding labor, and have included pictures of the workmanship I received, the deposit payment and the final bill payment.

    Above and beyond amazing work. Impeccable attention to detail. Very thoughtful care of our house while renovating. They swept and mopped floors after every days work. Highly recommend.

    We bought a new kitchen sink a while ago and was looking for someone to install it. McCarty Customized Improvements did a great job with the sink install, cutting our countertops to fit, and installing our new under sink reverse osmosis system. They were very thorough with the explanation of what the project would entail and scheduled the repair in a timely manner. Highly recommend!

    Update: we hired them again. This time, it was to fix an uneven paver patio. They used the same brick, the same footprint. The end result is artisanal.<br>_____________<br>Original post: High quality work at a reasonable price. Highly recommend. Will hire again.<br><br>We had the best experience. As soon as I connected, I knew we had the right people. They fully assessed all the failings and safety issues of prior install, quoted cost for all scenarios, under-promised and over-delivered.<br><br>They communicate regularly, respond promptly and each member of the staff we came in contact with was professional & easy to work with. Travis (working owner!) explained the process in layman's terms. No pressure, no BS. I was so happy with their work, I started looking around the house for other jobs for them. We will definitely use them for our next project!

Company Background

About McCarty Customized Improvements, Ltd.

McCarty Customized Improvements runs its showroom and office from a retail building at 2865 South High Street, on the south side of Columbus. The company is a full remodeler: its website lists kitchens, bathrooms, cabinetry, flooring, tile, carpentry and interior paint, plus an exterior menu that covers PVC siding and trim, gutters and roofs, doors and windows, fences and pergolas, hardscapes, and decks and concrete.

The decks page is short and direct. It says the team can build a custom deck from treated wood, cedar, vinyl, composite or a mix of those materials, and that it can power wash and restain an existing deck that needs a face lift. The same crew handles concrete repair, leveling and stamped concrete, which helps if a new deck needs a patio or steps poured at the base.

Licensing is spelled out more clearly than at most firms in this list. A credentials page says McCarty is licensed by the City of Columbus as a home improvement contractor and as a general contractor, is licensed in surrounding municipalities including Grove City, Delaware, West Jefferson and Pataskala, and is fully bonded and insured.

On Google the company holds 4.7 stars from 56 reviews, read November 11, 2026. Reviewers name Travis as an owner who works on site and handles details, and one manager wrote that Travis and his crew exceeded expectations on a renovation at an Ohio State University facility. There is one sharp complaint: a 2026 reviewer said foundation anchoring work failed a structural engineer's inspection and had to be redone, which delayed a home sale. In a public reply the company said it was never told the work had failed and that it finished the rush job on the promised date. Most published reviews cover kitchens and interiors rather than decks.

Google lists hours of 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday to Thursday and 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Friday, while the website says the showroom is open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays.

McCarty suits owners who want a licensed remodeler to build a deck alongside other exterior or interior work, with concrete under the same contract. It suits less well someone looking for a deck specialist with a long deck portfolio. Before booking, ask for photos of recent decks, a written quote naming materials and footing depth, the warranty, and confirm the licence with City of Columbus Building and Zoning Services.
