Cleveland Heights Remodeling Done Right
From the century homes off Fairmount and the Tudors near Coventry to the mid-century ranches on the east edge, Cleveland Heights has some of the most character-rich housing on the east side — and the trickiest floor plans to remodel. TMAK Restoration knows how to update these homes without stripping the details that make them worth owning.
Remodels That Respect the House
TMAK Restoration is owner-run by Mike McCandless, and our tightly-knit crew has worked together for more than a decade — over 20 years of combined remodeling experience. In a place like Cleveland Heights, that experience matters. Older kitchens with awkward layouts, plaster walls, tucked-away bathrooms — these are exactly the jobs we've built our reputation on.
Our shop is a short drive away in Highland Heights. Every project starts with a free in-home consultation, followed by real design and planning help, then a build handled start-to-finish by our own small, dedicated crew — the same faces from demo day through final walkthrough.

Three Things That Matter For a Cleveland Heights Remodel
No two Cleveland Heights homes are alike. The century Tudor near Fairmount needs different attention than the 1950s ranch on the east edge. Here's how we work them all.
Based in Highland Heights. Cleveland Heights Regulars.
Our shop sits in Highland Heights, a quick hop from Cleveland Heights — close enough that our crew is in the area regularly and knows the neighborhoods, from Cedar Fairmount to Cedar Lee. That proximity means prompt free in-home consultations and a build handled entirely by our own people.
Because we're local, we understand the housing here: the plaster and lath, the original hardwood, the tight second-floor baths. We plan around what's actually behind the walls, not what a spec sheet assumes.
Century Tudors, Colonials, and Mid-Century Ranches
Cleveland Heights runs deep on character: early-1900s Tudors and Colonials near Fairmount and Coventry, brick foursquares throughout the older neighborhoods, and pockets of mid-century ranches toward the east side. These homes were built to last — but their kitchens and bathrooms often haven't been touched in decades, and the layouts reflect a way of living nobody does anymore.
Our most-requested Cleveland Heights work: kitchen remodels that open cramped layouts without gutting the home's character, bathroom remodels that modernize dated second-floor baths, cabinet refinishing when the boxes are still solid, and flooring that ties old and new spaces together. We plan and design with you, then build it right.
Character homes need remodelers who work with what's already there. Twenty-plus years of combined experience across Cleveland's east side — not guesswork.
Old-School Attention. Contemporary Skills.
One of our customers put it best: "This is old school attention to detail and work ethic using contemporary skills and techniques." That's the whole idea. We treat every Cleveland Heights home like it's ours — careful demo, clean transitions between old and new, and finish work that holds up.
The same small crew has been together for over ten years, so you get consistency from the first walkthrough to the final detail. No rotating subs, no strangers in your home each morning — just the people who planned your project seeing it through.
Owner-run, hands-on, and backed by a BBB A+ rating. Mike answers the phone — you always know who's accountable for the work.
