Get matched with top major renovation multiple room pros in Evanston, 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 Above and Beyond transformed my little frame house from an outdated, decades-neglected, design and décor calamity left by the prior owners into an elegant space that honors tradition yet transcends centuries."

"We've needed a major staircase upgrade for years and got Caesar and his crew to do it. As we decided on this we mentioned our half bathroom on the main level. He gave us a very fair price on the labor for that, and in fact was able to get us a beautiful and custom made vanity and top. The workmanship is top notch and all the men in the crew are very personable. Caesar not only listens, but he readily ask you questions as to your input on how things be done to your liking. The stairs and powder room turned out beautiful. We've already told Caesar that his services for another project will be needed in the fall."

"Paul was great! Always on time and finished the work in a timely fashion. Nice clean-up when they were finished . He helped us brain storm through problems as we did our condo renovation. For us he removed a wall between kitchen and dining room, relocated and replaced electrical, renovated a bathroom, installed floor, painted , added lighting. We plan to have him back for phase 2 of renovations."

"This company has done a wonderful job with my kitchen renovation. They followed exactly how I wanted my kitchen to look. The customer service is excellent. I will definitely be getting other part of my house renovated in the future by them."

"I am so grateful to Grandview Construction for our beautiful, new kitchen and master shower! They also painted our entire first floor including the trim. Our experience with Jeremy and his wonderful crew was A+mazing! Their workmanship was excellent, and Jeremy was very communicative and responsive throughout the entire process. The crew was friendly, professional and clearly experts at what they do. One of them has almost 30 years of experience in the industry. Jeremy and his crew provided many helpful details about the project from start to finish and was quick to let us know if any issues arose. When they had to make any adjustments they explained the reasons and were very patient in answering all of our questions and since this was our very first kitchen remodel we had a lot of questions. The project was completed on time and stayed within the very fair competitive estimate he gave us in the beginning, and we could not be happier with the gorgeous finished product. We will work with them on any other project we might do on our home, and I would recommend Grandview Construction without any reservation to anyone who is looking for a dependable and honest general contractor to work on their house."

"I’ve always wanted a second bathroom. I contacted JK Complete R&C. Jack came to my home and assessed the would be project. Jack gave me a reasonable price, start and proposed finish date. Then I met the crew John, Mike and Ziggy. We had a great relationship. Everything that was to be accomplished was explained to me on a daily bases. By the end of the project we had a bond and it felt like family. I also learned quite a bit in the process. I am total fascinated with my new bathroom. I have already recommended JK Complete to family members."

"The work was done in a timely manner, very clean and professional. In addition to the skills displayed, Artius Remodeling was extremely helpful in choosing an elegant design. Loved it!"

"This was my first experience with remodeling and hiring a contractor so am not sure how much of my disappointment is because of unreal expectations.   I had made the assumption that I had hired him as the contractor but found that I was having to be the go-between for the vendors from whom I purchased the materials and him.   While the bathroom looks updated, I was very disappointed with the quality of the work.  The delivery of the tiles took three attempts because he didn't want to be responsible for having to bring them up to my unit and the company only delivered curbside but ultimately he did it.   There was also a tear in the drywall from where they removed the original plastic floor molding and they just painted over it initially.   When I brought it to his attention, he threw some mud over it and then repainted but there is still a noticeable bump on the wall.  I didn't have new drywall installed on a couple of walls so expected minor visible imperfections but was surprised at the number of places where there had been grout or spackle used and it wasn't smoothed out well out before it was painted over.   When he initially installed the medicine cabinet and lightening, it was a little lower than I thought it would be and the light was off center over the cabinet.  When I asked if the cabinet could be raised a little and the light centered, I was told that it couldn't be done.  So I checked with a friend who ensured me that it could be based on what I wanted done and told me what to tell him.  When I provided that info, I was then told that it wasn't that it couldn't be done but that it would take a little longer to do and came by and did it.  The tile work is okay but some of the tiles are uneven and the grout is heavier in some places than others.  Also, as he was wrapping up the job, I noticed that he had decided to use three pieces of the bath tiles to complete the molding on the wall between the tub and sink which was different than the floor tile.  When I asked why, he mentioned that he had run out of the floor tiles but didn't think to tell me when he had me order more of the bath tiles so that it could be finished correctly.   I also noticed that because the molding tiles that run along the wall with the toilet and sink weren't measured correctly, the cabinet for the sink does not sit flush against that wall and the caulking that he used around the sink has started cracking and it has only been less than a month.   Overall the bathroom does look better than the old one but I am wondering if this one will last as long.

"Howard and his whole crew were fantastic. I think we were a little picky about the design and paint schemes, but Howard's crew made it work for us and the porch looks really lovely. Plus, it looks like it's always been there, not like an addition. The carpenters worked hard to capture the essence of our original porch (from 1895) and the painter was very careful to match the original color scheme of the house. We could not be happier!"

"Over the last two years, Chi Renovation has helped us transform our home. We have had two large projects managed and delivered by Chi. We gutted three bathrooms (primary, on suite, guest), refinished our kitchen cabinets, changed all the kitchen stone work, added a second island, removed a wall and re-tiled our front porch. The work completed by Chi was excellent and definitely met our expectations. Our project manager, Tom, was excellent to work with. He spent hours with us going over design choices, explaining engineering elements, providing examples of similar work and helping us throughout both projects. Our first project with Chi started during the pandemic. We gutted our guest bathroom and made kitchen upgrades (including replacing counters, backsplashes, and fixtures). Tom helped us through all the major decisions and the end results were excellent. In February 2021, (after the epic Chicago snow storm), our kitchen ceiling collapsed from water damage. This event kicked off the second project with Chi. First off, Tom and Chi were with us every step of the way to help with stopping the water leak, remediating the problem and then ultimately incorporating fixing our kitchen along with additional work in our second project (two bathrooms, kitchen, front porch). It is extremely hard to know who to trust in the contracting business. Before working with Chi, we talked to friends and reviewed multiple websites. We ultimately picked Chi Renovation because their online reviews were great (and specific) and our first walkthrough with Tom to discuss our potential project was impressive. He was thorough, had great ideas and really cared about what changes/work would add value versus what would not. After two large projects, multiple accomplishments, countless changes and obstacles, we are beyond happy with the outcome and work delivered. Chi was professional, clear, consistent and honest form start to finish. We would not hesitate using Chi again and/or recommending them to our family and friends."
