What We See In Willoughby Hills
Willoughby Hills is the county's most rural city, with large wooded lots, long driveways, and hilly terrain in the Chagrin valley. Long driveways here are a real investment, and slope is the whole story: a driveway that runs downhill toward the garage needs a trench drain and careful grading or it will flood the garage every spring.
We work across Willoughby Hills including the Chardon Road corridor, the wooded lots off Bishop Road, the Chagrin River valley, the estates along SOM Center, the Rockefeller Road area. Zoning permits come from the city; building permits from Lake County. Chapter 1373 requires every contractor working in Willoughby Hills to register with the city even if already registered with the county. We handle the paperwork.
