Northeast Ohio’s Trusted Disaster Reconstruction Experts — Since 1970
For over 50 years, Lewis Construction has been the name families and businesses across Northeast Ohio trust when disaster strikes. Founded in 1970 by Dennis Lewis Sr., and built alongside his brother Carter and son Dennis Jr., our company was grounded in a simple philosophy: take care of your customers, do the job right, and never cut corners.
Today, that legacy lives on through a team of more than 50 skilled professionals—craftsmen, painters, and restoration specialists—ready to respond at a moment’s notice. Whether you’re facing the aftermath of a fire, flood, storm, or structural damage, we bring decades of expertise and a steady, compassionate hand to every job.

Let us help you move forward.
We’re always on call—because excellence doesn’t take days off.
Our Founder
Dennis Lewis Sr. believed that service was more than just part of the job—it was the currency of a meaningful life. He poured his energy into building Lewis Construction from the ground up in 1970 and enjoyed working alongside his brother Carter and later his son Dennis Jr. What began as a local operation grew into a multi-faceted company serving Northeast Ohio’s restoration, real estate, and development needs—all grounded in Dennis’ deep belief in craftsmanship, compassion, and community.
He was an optimist at heart, always chasing the next opportunity and believing that there was no limit to what hard work could accomplish. But beyond business, Dennis lived for service—whether it was helping local families rebuild after disaster, supporting adoption services to place thousands of children in loving homes, or mentoring future military leaders through his involvement with West Point and the Army football community.
Today, his legacy is in every wall we rebuild, every neighbor we serve, and every promise we keep. Lewis Construction isn’t just a company—it’s a reflection of the standards Dennis lived by: integrity, generosity, and the unshakable belief that we’re here to lift others up.
