"Joe and his crew did a major renovation on our master bathroom and a more minor update to our kids bathroom. Overall we were happy with the outcome, with some reservations that keep us from giving an A grade. The good: 1) Price and value were very good. We were happy with the extent of work done for the price paid, and all additions that came up in the course of the job were priced fairly. No complaints here. 2) Quality of the tiling and plumbing was good. 3) Joe and his crew were thoughtful. Since both upstairs bathrooms were being done at the same time, they ended up removing and reinstalling the hall bath toilet several times over the course of the work so that we would have an upstairs toilet to use in the evening. 4) Joe and his crew were easy to work with and friendly in all our dealings. The not-so-good: 1) Paint and drywall. It's fairly obvious where new or repaired drywall was needed in the master bath...just could have been a better job overall in drywall/painting. Also, wall paint was slopped numerous places onto door trim or other trim pieces; most of that was fixed at my request, but seems it should have been neater to begin with. Also, the spot behind the toilet tank in the hall bath was not painted despite my pointing it out 2 or 3 times; while it's not easily visible, it just isn't professional. 2) A mistake was made in installing the vanity in the kids bathroom; they failed to realize a 1" spacer was called for at the wall, resulting in an almost 2" overhang of the vanity top at the other end. I accepted it because fixing it would have required drilling new (additional) holes in the vanities for all the plumbing, which wasn't ideal either...I made the less bad of two bad choices. It's not terrible, but it's not right either. 3) General cleanup was rather poor. We regularly found nails and or screws on the floor at the end of the day, and several 2x4's with nails sticking out were left in my garage at the end of the job, along with numerous drawers from the original vanities which should have been removed."

"David gave me what I thought was a fair price for the work to be done. He asked for 1/2 up front. As a previous small business owner I did not feel this was unreasonable so I paid him 500.00. He estimated the work would take 3 to four days and I thought the same. After several no shows the "mason" showed up. The first clue was he came in a car. According to my wife he was here 2 hours and left, came back for another 2 hours the next day and left again. He said nothing to my wife about leaving or when he would be back. David called a day later to ask about coming out to look over the job and get the rest of the other 500.00. I said he isn't finished and he's only been here 4 hours. So then I looked up the prevailing wage in IL for a mason and found out it is 28.50 an hour. The next day the guy comes back for another 3 hours. David came to look at the work and I walked him around and showed him all of the places that had not been done. So the guy comes back again for about an hour. All told it was 8 hours work, nothing to write home about but it was agreed up front that I wasn't looking for an exposed brick look. I need it tuck pointed well enough so that I could drylock and paint the exposed brick. I will say this was done in the end. The worker left a mess that I and my wife had to clean up, I pointed this out to David as well. I told him I felt he was overly paid for the amount of work preformed and that was the end of it. It's really to bad. It's difficult to get contractors to do small jobs and I had plenty for him to do. I'm not unhappy, just would not hire again"

"I purchased an old home that needed extensive work, particularly flooring. Two rooms downstairs and the entire upstairs needed all new floors, some with remediation of sub surfaces. All the work was done beautifully, on time, and on budget."

"They were good about communicating with me through emails and so forth. Their professionalism was great."

"Great! I had multiple properties requiring debris removal and cleanings and all were completed accurately and in a timely manner!"

"Jill provided two different floor plans for us, and was very flexible, as far as working the option of piano into the room.  She responded to several follow-up questions I had, and provided suggestions for where to locate resources.  Jill was very easy to work with, and very accommodating. However, I found the process of working with a "virtual designer" to be a bit challenging for me.  That was definitely no fault of Jill's, thought.  I would use her again, particularly if I needed help with planning a room layout.

"They did a really great job, the whole crew was polite and they cleaned up after themselves and when they were done."
