Home Builders in Calumet Park, IL

“We feel very lucky to have found Dimitris and crew with James CG. To us, though maybe not to them, it was a big, incredibly complicated job which they executed brilliantly. Foundation rebuild, interior and exterior concrete work, complete renovation of the entire bottom floor. We couldn’t be happier with the result. Thanks so much!”

“Chi Renovation remodeled my bathroom, refinished the hardwood floors, and painted all the walls. I'm very meticulous and, consequently, I am NOT an easy customer. So, when a job is done with superior quality, I want to acknowledge it and give full credit. Background I live in a 1-bedroom, Gold Coast condo that's about 700 Sq Ft. I hadn't updated it in 10 years and was really ready for change. I decided to refinish the wood floors, paint all the walls, and completely remodel the bathroom. I consulted with and received bids from 3 companies before choosing Chi-Renovation. Superior Advice & Direction Since I wasn't sure exactly what I wanted to do to the bathroom or the colors I would choose for the walls, I was open to suggestions. The Chi-Renovation Project Manager showed me pictures and asked questions to be better understand my tastes, how I would use the space, and my vision. He then gave me great recommendations regarding color and design elements and did most of the shopping for me. For example: He brought tile, accent options, and wood finishes to my home based on my preferences. He sent photographs of options for the fixtures, toilet, tub, etc. This was incredibly helpful because I don't have a car nor the time to do that kind of running around. I was pleased and impressed with the advice and direction that he gave me. He also met with the chief engineer for my building at the beginning of the project to manage all of the technical stuff. He made the process VERY easy for me. Exceptional Crew I was also impressed with the caliber of their expert craftsmen. The custom vanity and cabinets that they made are absolutely beautiful and fit perfectly despite the awkward constraints of the space. The tilework is like art -- beautiful and flawless. And, the refinished hardwood floors look like new. Perfect! And, they completed everything in just 4 weeks! Why Chi Renovation & Design? TRUST... Before witnessing any of their work in my own space, I chose them because after seeing examples of their work and speaking to them, I trusted that they would do what they said they would do when they said they would do it and that they would do it with integrity (in terms of their professional conduct and the materials they used): On Budget - On Time - Highest Quality. I appreciated having the Project Manager (who also provided wonderful design direction) as a central point of contact for all elements of the project and their entire crew proved worthy of my trust... so much so that I felt comfortable taking a mini out-of-state vacation for the last week of the project while they painted the walls and refinished the floors. The Cost I was quoted $12,600 for the work (and that included basic building materials). I paid an additional $4,700 for my custom vanity and cabinets, tempered glass sink, brushed nickel fixtures (for the sink, tub, and shower), and tile. The price was reasonable given my vision for the space, the types design elements that I chose, and the quality of the work.”

“Woody and the team at Post Services Inc showed a great level of care and skill. From the talented workers who built it to the project leaders who looked after every small thing, each person did more than was needed to give top-notch quality. The makeover of our kitchen not only changed how the entire first floor looks but it also maximized the space, giving us more storage than we ever thought we could have. From recommended appliances to custom cabinets and shelving down to the quartz countertops, every part was picked with care to make it look good and work well. The finished kitchen goes beyond what we hoped for.”

“If you are looking for great customer service (exceeding expectations in my experience), and high quality work being done on your place within or before a projected deadline, 123 remodeling is the company to go with and here are a few examples of why. After moving forward with 123, a project manager Ariel picked me up and helped me shop for both of my bathroom remodels, providing helpful advice based on his experience but still totally respecting my personal style. We found everything I needed within a couple hours and he was also able to get my an amazing discount on everything purchased. He then picked me up a second time to help me find tiles for my bathroom backsplash which was still unfinished from my previous nightmare remodeling experience even though 123 wasn't even contracted to work on my kitchen so this was extremely nice of him and definitely not in the contract. Aside from the project management, the actual worker bee was amazing. He showed up every single day out of about 30 work days except one 1 (because of car trouble) and worked straight from 8 to 4 (the hours my building allows you to work) barely breaking for lunch. When he did break though, he hung out with our Dog and was always very nice and loving to him which we appreciated :). His work was impeccable. There were a few things we added on at the end or asked to be changed that 123 did without adding any costs or giving us any grief. Yes, the project cost was expensive BUT I got quotes from 2 other companies that came in right at the same price or higher so 123 is definitely comparable to any other remodeling company that provides professional, high quality service and work. If your priority is having a positive, stress free remodeling experience, where you need some advice and help picking out material, go with 123. You will not regret it. I spent 9 months in a horrible kitchen remodeling nightmare because I tried to go with someone who could not be held accountable for failing to deliver on what we had discussed and I ended up spending twice as much in the end and having to wait 9 months for my kitchen to be finished. If I could go back, I would hire 123 again without a second thought. Could not recommend them more. Enjoy!”

“Zambrano Development repaired and painted bay windows built in 1966 to prevent leaks and and improve the outward appearance of the house. They also a rebuilt a wooden gate. The work looks good but of course I am not a good judge and time will tell how long it lasts. I could not always reach them by cell phones. One day the two people I wanted to contact had full mailboxes. Also I would like to have been called on the days when they did not come, even though, yes, I know you can't work outdoors in the rain. Everyone who worked at the house was polite and pleasant. I would recommend this company.”

“Peter and his team just completed a project for me and exceeded all of my expectations. The solution to my problem was creative, perfectly executed, and very reasonably priced. I have already recommended him to friends.”

“My husband and I have used Arete Renovators on several occasions to remodel rental property and to remodel the master bathroom in our home. They were accessible throughout the projects and provided design recommendations, as needed. There was an open line of communications and the projects were completed within the timeline we discussed. We recommend Arete Renovators, Inc. to friends and family and we will use them again in the future.”

“A little late with this review, but these guys definitely needed to be complimented. We did a complete small bathroom remodeling project last year and we contacted these gentlemen for their services. They did a wonderful, professional, on-time job for us and we will definitely be looking at using them for our future larger bathroom project. They changed out floors, shower, shower doors, walls, sink, toilet, vanity, mirror and did an outstanding job and took owner changes or concerns in stride. Very courteous and clean and followed their estimate closely. I recommend R Brand Homes for home upgrades and remodeling projects wholeheartedly.”

“Great service driven company. Greg Always makes himself available and wants to addresses any issue. Good value and good people and most of all good work.”

“My husband and I hired MAW-Chicago after a 6 month nightmare with another "contractor", to rescue us with a kitchen and bathroom remodel. Mike Nagel and his "dream team " of highly qualified professionals turned our nightmare into more of a dream come true. We love our bathroom and kitchen. Our vanity turned out to be a beautiful, custom, piece of art by a local cabinet maker. If we had seen John Valentine's work before, we would have had him do the kitchen cabinets. Mike Nagel made suggestions even better than what we could have imagined to solve several problems relative to the lighting, shower system, floor heating etc.. He never said "No,we can't do that." The tile in the bathroom has even received compliments from other professionals working on the premises as the "best job that they have seen". Thanks to Vio Filip and his Servio Pro Crew. MAW-Chicago is a the real deal, a class outfit from beginning to the completed project. How wonderful it is to find a company that delivers what is promised...and more. We would not hesitate to recommend MAW-Chicago to anyone who is looking for a high- quality builder/ restorer in our area. If we win the lottery, we will have our whole house remodeled...by MAW-Chicago...of course.”
