Why Choose PH Design and Construction For Your Home Improvement Projects?

At PH Design and Construction, we bring that insider knowledge to every project. Our team has extensive experience navigating Cuyahoga County’s building regulations — including the more complex review processes and permit timelines that are common in urban Cuyahoga jurisdictions — so your project stays on schedule and on budget.

Building in Shaker Heights, OH: What Homeowners Should Know
Shaker Heights rewards builders who respect it. The city's century-old streetscapes, design review standards, and Cuyahoga County's permitting process all shape how a project should be planned, and we plan for all three from day one.
The Architecture We Build For
Shaker Heights is home to one of the Midwest's finest collections of Tudor Revival, Colonial, and Georgian homes, and the neighborhood's character is the reason many of our clients choose to build here in the first place. We design rooflines, masonry, window proportions, and material palettes that sit comfortably beside century homes, whether you are building new on an infill lot or adding to a home that has stood since the 1920s.
Inside, you still get everything a modern family expects: open layouts, energy-efficient systems, and spaces planned around how you actually live. Heritage outside, today inside.
Approvals, Permits & Review, Handled
New construction and visible exterior changes in Shaker Heights are evaluated by the city's Architectural Board of Review for compatibility with the surrounding streetscape. Because we design with approval in mind from the first sketch, our plans move through review without the redesign cycles that stall projects.
