Get matched with top basement remodelers in Northbrook, IL

"I recently hired Stefan Construction, led by David Szlachta, to finish our basement, and the results exceeded our expectations. From the first consultation to the final walk-through, the entire project was handled with exceptional professionalism and care. David brought creative ideas that elevated our design—he listened to our needs, offered smart solutions, and executed every detail with precision. The craftsmanship is outstanding, blending style and functionality perfectly. Communication was excellent throughout; David kept us informed on timelines, progress, and next steps, making the process seamless. His team was punctual, respectful, and maintained a tidy workspace daily. It’s clear they take pride in their work and value customer satisfaction. We’re thrilled with our new basement and highly recommend Stefan Construction and David Szlachta for their skill, reliability, and dedication to quality. I would highly recommend Stefan Construction for any home improvement project."

"We chose Design One to remodel our small galley kitchen after meeting with them and seeing their reviews. Initially, they presented as organized and professional. I wish we had asked more questions upfront. The quality of work was poor, especially drywall and basic carpentry skills. The average time spent was 10 hours/week. When they started work, all needed materials were in, yet it took over 7 weeks to complete. Requests for a schedule were evaded. There is no crew it is Rich, and occasionally Linda to assist. Very poor time management at the customer expense. Their lack of transparency regarding certain paperwork was troubling. What should have been a rewarding project became a large disappointment."

"I'm happy with their work."

"The crew was very professional. Started the job and they made progress every day exactly to my request. They showed me different options and ideas which I appreciated. The job was done quickly, within schedule, and at a reasonable cost, and with great quality. I would hire them again for further work on my home and I will recommend them to anyone because of their hard work!"

"Timely and professional. Responsive and completed the job faster than expected with cleanup. "

"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."

"They are excellent!"

"James and his team did a phenomenal job! From the timing of the project to the quality of the work to the customer service, I couldn't have asked for anything more. I will absolutely hire James and his team again!"

"I?m sad to write this review as Hero started off as a wonderful landscape partner to us with excellent communication and integrity. Unfortunately this past year we paid for a season pass of bi-weekly lawn mowing services plus an additional spring clean up service. We tried to work things out with Hero but ultimately we received fewer than half the lawn visits, no spring clean up and the visits we received were sporatic and not on the promised timeline. Hero agreed to come by with the refund for part of the services he did not provide but has since ghosted us despite consistent attempts to reach out by phone, text, Zelle and in-person. We lost $480 in services."

"Karl and his crew are top notch. Great communication, attention to detail, and very fair pricing. Remodeling can be very overwhelming and Karl makes the process a piece of cake. Lastly, Karl recommends upgrades and finishing touches that are always the more affordable option - never any surprises with expensive add-ons or the final bill!"
