Ohio AG sues two home-improvement firms over refunds, unfinished work
The Ohio Attorney General has filed separate lawsuits against two home-improvement companies, including a Lorain County business, alleging consumers paid about $140,000 for services that were not completed or refunded as promised, with one project started but abandoned and a warranty not honored.
What happened
State officials say nine consumers paid a total of $140,000 to Journey Home Restoration LLC and its owner, Jason Kaczur. The lawsuits allege the companies failed to provide contracted goods and services, did not issue refunds, and in one case began a roofing project but left it unfinished. The claim also notes a 10-year warranty was not honored after a roof leaked under three years old.
Who is affected
Consumers who hired Journey Home Restoration LLC and associated services are affected. The actions involve those who paid for work that was not completed or refunded, and those who expected the warranty to cover defects but did not receive it.
Practical next steps
If you paid for home-improvement work in Ohio and did not receive promised services, keep records (contracts, receipts, communications). Monitor official updates from the Ohio Attorney General’s Office for guidance on possible restitution or filing questions. If you are facing similar issues with contractors, consider contacting the AG’s consumer protection division or your local consumer affairs office for help in pursuing refunds or enforcing warranties.
