Get matched with top bathroom remodel pros in North Chicago, IL

"We gutted our master bathroom and removed a wall. Installed all new wall and floor tile as well as cabinetry and fixtures. Jose and Cesar are SUPER friendly and always want to help. They are attentive to all concerns and willing to make sure you are satisfied. This is a true family operation and they have a real great family. We will be remodeling another bathroom in 2019 and will definitely use 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 used Above & Beyond Construction to gut and remodel one full and one half bathroom in our 1960-built house. This was our first big home remodeling project and we couldn’t have been happier with the results. Chester and his crew were easy to work and communicate with, kept us updated with timing and progress, and identified additional issues that needed to be addressed (aka some really nasty old corroded cast iron pipes and cracked joists in our basement) to prevent future catastrophes. If we hadn’t fixed them we know we’d have ended up having to rip out the beautiful new bathroom within 6 months due to the failure of the old plumbing! They take pride in their work and take care to protect the rest of the house from dust and dirt, completely clean up the work site at the end of every day, and we had no problem trusting any of them in the house when we couldn’t be home. There were no budget surprises, either; the estimate was right on target. When we get up the nerve to tackle the gut rehab of our old kitchen we will look no further than Above & Beyond Construction!"

"We couldn’t be happier with our new basement remodel. We added a new bathroom, heated tiles and fireplace. Artius Remodeling did a fantastic job from beginning to end; the attention to detail was outstanding! They exceeded our expectations."

"Jody and Brian did a fantastic job remodeling our 5.5x8.5’ hall bathroom in July 2019 as well as completing some other projects around the house. Basically, we were so happy with the job they did remodeling our master bathroom in 2017 that we hired them again in 2019 to gut and remodel our hall bathroom. We had to wait until they had an opening in their schedule but it’s always worth the wait because they’re such nice guys, so easy to work and communicate with, always on time, clean up at the end of the day, have good ideas and do quality work. Life got a little busy since then so I’m just now getting around to writing this review. Our hall bathroom was functioning, but mainly as a powder room because although it had a tub, it had no plumbing for a shower. It had some other issues we wanted to deal with as well. Jody and Brian took care of everything as usual, including beefing up the floor for the cast iron tub, making sure the bathroom exhaust actually vented out the roof, providing ideas and recommendations when needed, and ensuring my 2 large shower niches came out how I planned. While they were here, we also had them (or their electrician or plumber when necessary) upgrade our electrical panel, replace a bar faucet, replace 2 back doors, add LED lighting and custom glass shelves to our bar cabinet, replace 2 hanging bedroom light fixtures, do some painting around the house, etc. The total bathroom cost (including some small painting projects around the house) was approx $28,500. But with the electrical panel upgrade, new back doors, etc., the total for the bathroom plus all work completed around the house was close to $34k. We could have technically done the bathroom with quality finishes for around $19k with them, but we went over budget on certain bathroom elements that we really wanted, such as a 65x32” cast iron tub, Cambria quartz countertop and shower niche shelves, $900 Walker Zanger floor tile, $750 for 2 Robern medicine cabinets, an $1800 semi-custom Starmark vanity, $350 vanity light fixture and $400 sink faucet. But we could have easily done a very nice, quality bathroom with different choices within our allowances. We didn’t bother getting other bids for the hall bathroom remodel because we knew we were going with CCCM no matter what. We did get 3 bids for the 2017 master bath remodel because it was our first remodeling project, and CCCM wasn’t the cheapest but also wasn’t the most expensive. I left a review back in July 2017 for the master bath which we’re still extremely happy with. Terry also did a great job again getting us the best prices with contractor discount included on everything we picked out at various vendors and also kept in touch with us via email while we waited for our turn for our bathroom project to begin. Thanks so much to Terry, Jody, and Brian for your hard work making sure our hall bathroom turned out beautifully!"

"Bathroom Repair MPT Enterprises My wife and I recently moved into a +30 year old home and quickly discovered that the two bathroom had multiple plumbing problems; a shower stall and floor that was cracked and leaking; cabinets in desperate need of repair; and numerous electrical problems. We conducted an extensive search over a 60 day time frame; conducted multiple interviews; checked numerous references and ultimately decided to go with Paul and MPT who was clearly the most qualified AND also happened to be the most price competitive. Regarding the work they performed, I hardly know where to begin but I would start by saying that Paul and his team are the consummate professionals. The work was absolutely first rate (plumbing, electrical, tile, caulk, you name it); communication was ongoing as we always knew WHAT they were going to do, WHEN they we going to do it and they ALWAYS asked our opinion about the smallest detail before any work was done. They arrived on time every day and cleaned up with a broom and dust pan at the end of every work day. I consider my wife a perfectionist and only on rare occasion did she need to mention something to Paul that needed to be addressed and inevitably he was already on it and did it with a smile. He was beyond meticulous. The highest marks that I can give Paul is that whenever I need any work done in the future, he will be my first – and only – phone call and I have highly recommended him to friends and family. Thanks to Paul and his team for a job well done!"

"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."

"We hired Rowe Builders to remodel our master bath. Several years ago, we had hired Ryan's company to remodel three other bathrooms in our house. Based on the quality of workmanship, timeliness of completion and all around ease of working with Ryan and his crew, we again enlisted his help. Once again Ryan and his crew did an excellent job on all aspects of the project. We had a couple of concerns with the shower tile (basically a poor design choice on our part) and asked Ryan if we could switch to a different tile. While only a small portion had been completed, Ryan was more than willing to start over. We have had no issues with this current project or with any of the other bathrooms they completed for us. I highly recommend Rowe Builders for your remodeling needs."

"Kris and team did a wonderful job with our bathroom remodel. They were efficient, very detailed, and the outcome looks very nice. Very reasonably priced and I will use his team for future projects!"

"Our master bathroom remodel was just completed in Nov 2025 by Fernando & Chris. They both did a fantastic job and we are highly satisfied with the end result. We appreciated their professionalism, flexibility, quality of work, and attention to detail. We also valued their consistent work ethic and daily clean up. They offered some great suggestions that helped the room look even better than we had originally envisioned. The project was completed on time and on budget. They were genuinely pleasant, respectful, and wonderful to work with from start to finish. We would certainly recommend using them in the future."
