About Us

The Durable Restoration Company was founded in 2008 when our sister company, The Durable Slate Company, afforded us the opportunity to grow into a full service exterior restoration company. Since then we have been proud to preserve our nation’s cultural heritage, one building at a time.
Careers in Historic Preservation

Our mission is to preserve and restore historical buildings and landmarks.

Such structures include churches, government buildings, universities and museums, whose owners value the aesthetic, integrity and beauty of their building, feeling it is of the utmost importance. It encompasses structures that are significant within their communities and even nationally. We provide this service with a level of quality and integrity exceeding the client’s expectations. Award-winning quality, world class service, and uncompromising integrity are the hallmarks of The Durable Restoration Company.

We are a national building restoration company with offices in Ohio, Indiana, Louisiana, and Florida. Durable Restoration has a sister company, Durable Slate specializing in slate, tile and metal roofing. Both companies are subsidiaries of The Durable Group. With more than twenty traditional trades performed by our expert artisans, Durable Restoration is quite unique in the restoration industry. From our roots as a couple of people working out of a home to a premier, national company with seven offices in four states, we have grown the company using The Durable Way.
