Get matched with top addition and remodeling pros in Oak Lawn, IL

"Above and Beyond Construction recently completed an almost whole-house renovation including a family room addition, a fully remodeled kitchen, relocated stairways, three bathrooms, and a finished basement. The addition seamlessly blends with the original spaces, making it feel like a natural extension of my home. The work is detailed and outstanding to the point that visitors do not know where the original 1911 house ends and the 2024 house begins. The highly skilled craftsmen matched the woodwork details of the original house to the new addition perfectly. Chester is easy to work with, has a positive outlook, and a good sense of humor. He will work with you to answer questions, provide suggestions, and address concerns throughout the renovation process. Above and Beyond transformed my little frame house from an outdated, decades-neglected, design and décor calamity left by the prior owners into an elegant space that honors tradition yet transcends centuries."

"Excellent work done. Ceasar and his crew were punctual and hard working and finished the job on time and within budget with no surprises. I will hire them again for additional work I have planned. I was very impressed with they way they work."

"We contacted Jeff regarding our master bath remodel after reading excellent reviews on Angie's List and those reviews did not disappoint. We found Jeff to be very meticulous and responsive. He and his son, Max, did an excellent job and their workmanship exceeded our expectations. Jeff was very accommodating with any changes we asked for and they kept the work area very clean. We would definitely recommend Jeff and Max. We look forward to working with them on our next project."

"I am very impressed by how they transformed our unfinished basement into our new entertaining space complete with a custom built mini bar. They were very easy to work with and were able to accommodate some scope changes during the renovation."

"KSR has done 2 jobs at my home (a full bath remodel and a basement living room) both excellent work! Very easy to communicate with. Work was completed on the established timeline (even a little quicker than expected). Good attention to small details. Would definitely recommend to others."

"Jack and his team are professional and get the job done. The quality of their work is excellent and he is dependable and professional. For this project, we used them for whole house interior painting and handyman fixes throughout the house. Everything went smoothly and it was completed in a timely manner. I give JK Complete Remodeling my highest recommendation and I look forward to using them again!"

"**This posting is regarding a job that is currently underway. We will follow-up with another post once the job has been completed, but we wanted to make others aware of the struggles we are experiencing before they select this contractor.** We selected G & G from 3 contractors for our kitchen remodel. The scope of work in the kitchen included cabinet refacing, a few cabinet modifications, a new countertop and backsplash tiling. We are also constructing a wine nook where a current built-in desk existed. Our main concern in this review is regarding the estimated timeline for the project. Frank estimated a week and a half, but planned for two weeks to be safe. While this was longer than the one week guaranteed by another contractor, we liked Frank and felt he would deliver a beautiful finished product. We are currently approaching the end of week five, and there are still many components that are unfinished. In fact, no work has been done in the last two and a half weeks. Frank assigned one employee to be the dedicated installer for the project. He worked the first 5 days. On the 6th day, he was reassigned to another ‘emergency’ project. He worked days 7-9. On day 10, he left for a 2-week vacation. Frank told us that he was sorry he misestimated the install timing, but the project would be on hold until the installer returned from vacation. While this was frustrating, it was a moot point since they ran out of materials. Frank said this never happens, yet they ran out of 3 different materials: the refacing panels, trim and quarter round. After discovering they were short on materials, they waited a week to place the order for additional materials. It has been 3 weeks since the new order was placed, and Frank is blaming the lead times of the manufacturer. The materials are estimated to arrive on September 29, and work is currently scheduled to restart on October 3. Our 2-week project has become an 8-week project. The tile order that was placed was also not estimated correctly. A second order was placed for the remaining tile, and the contractor had to come out an additional day for the installation. This will not impact the overall timeline of the project, but it is another example of poor project management. G & G’s standard contract calls for 100% payment before install. We highly recommend that if you select G & G, you modify the contract and reserve a portion of the payment to be paid at completion. The work that has been completed so far looks pretty good. We are disappointed with the quality of some of the work, but Frank has committed to a final walk-through to repair these issues. As stated, we will post an update once the job is complete. In the meantime, we hope that this information is useful if you are considering working with G & G on a remodel."

"We had a full bathroom gutted to the studs and redone entirely. Best things I appreciated about the experience was 1) The proposal was incredibly detailed and procedural, which is something our other candidates did not provide, 2) Jim, John and Jose showed up every weekday, consistently and timely, and took the necessary and thoughtful steps to protect the rest of the house, 3) The work was performed carefully with good attention to detail, 4) While there were unexpected circumstances during the remodel that resulted in slightly more work and money than originally proposed, all of it was fairly priced and necessary for what we wanted, 5) Jim was receptive in discussing different options and really made an effort to figure out solutions that would be best for function and aesthetics. I also appreciated that Jim was conscious to proactively communicate timing and schedules. Overall, happy with the experience and the team's efforts and would use them again on future projects."

"Jeremy did a fantastic job with our first floor remodel. We had a vision of what we wanted to do and Jeremy offered many more professional ideas to make our first floor completely upgraded. He always kept us updated with a timeline of tasks and made sure the plumber, electrician and painters were all scheduled to get their work done on time. He only works with the best! We are so impressed, we asked him to remodel our 2nd floor as well."

"Mighty basement did a great job on my basement remodel. I had company coming in July and Scot Coleman made sure the remodel was completed by my target date. He was supervising the job and did a tremendous job. Scot was very professional but at the same time was attentive to what I wanted. He was great to work with. I would highly recommend Might Basements and bath."
