"In 2017, when I was looking to purchase a house in the Rockford area that was needing a full siding install I contacted GF Company in Belvidere. IL, who I found on Angie’s list and at that time GF Co had great reviews. Strangely enough these great reviews are no longer to be found on Angie’s List. It should also be noted there is a GF Siding in Cherry Valley. IL, this is Not the company that I did business with. Ariel Zmijewski (the owner) got me a quote quickly and I decided to purchase the house. A few months later in July 2017, I contacted Ariel again to discuss the finer points of the quote, the price was revised slightly and the Ariel mentioned that once a deposit was paid work could start 6-8 weeks later, but said the install would be finished before the cold weather arrived. I started creating a color layout and Ariel provided some feedback on what would work and not work. To this point I was very happy with progress. In September 2017 I paid a deposit of over $8k (about 44% of final price) and awaited updates for a start date. Nothing happened. In early March 2018 I contacted GF Co by phone stating that I had been very patient and they had had $8k as a deposit for the last 6 months and I had nothing to show for it. After a couple more calls and emails Ariel showed up with his foreman Mark and they said that work would start in the middle of the following week. Much to my surprise the work started on time. Over the course of the next 4 weeks Mark and his crew worked hard, only missing a few days due to bad weather, I even agreed to having some extra work done by the team, some wooden entrance steps that needed replacing for an additional $2.5k. By early May 2018 the job was finished the house looked great and I was very happy with the work and appearance and was getting compliments from neighbors too. The balance of owed of over $10k was paid with 48 hours of the work being finished. Again I was happy with work done, until… A few months after the install a TV cable box started having troubles. Cut a long story short the wall socket died because cable was suddenly defective, also the crew had moved the exterior cable input box and this didn’t help the issue. Comcast fixed it, but I now have an exterior cable showing and they had to drill through the siding. Then around Halloween 2018, less than six months after having the install completed, I noticed that a piece of siding (6ft approx.) had become detached underneath a window, trying to pop it back into place did not resolve the issue. After checking all the other exterior windows I noticed 1 other window was about to do the same thing. I called the GF Company main number and left a message with the receptionist for Ariel to contact me. No response. I called again a couple of times and left more messages still no response. In March 2019 siding problem under windows still Not fixed, I called GF Company again, no answer, and no voice mail. I called a couple more times on different days still no answer or voice mail. I then sent an email to the company and to my surprise I received a response from Ariel stating this was the first that he had heard of it. About a week later (3/26/19) he showed up at my house to view the problem. Ariel stated that he would get someone over to fix the problem, but would not give me a date or time. On 4/2/19 I emailed Ariel again asking for confirmation of a repair date ? Nothing but crickets… On 4/30/19, I sent another email to Ariel requesting that the repairs be completed before the end of May 2019, again no response. Quote / contract says: Customers will receive a Lifetime Warranty on Material and Workmanship Reported GF Company to Illinois BBB on 6/5/19."

"The job went very well. I had my mother’s bathroom done and the Harris crew did an exceptionally good job. They kept me informed of the progress and checked with me when there was a question about something out of the ordinary. They cleaned up every day and took great care to make sure their work area remained covered and clean so as not to create a bigger mess in any other part of the house. They gave me a completion date and finished on that day. I do intend to call them when I start the next project. Tom W."

"I am so happy with the work A&D Exterirs and Remodeling did on my house. Gordo took the time to answer any questions or concerns when giving me an estimate. He even worked with my insurance company so I did not have to make any calls. So nice to work with such a honest company. Installation went seemlessly, very professional, efficient and left my house looking gorgeous. Other companies have been in my neighborhood but nothing comes close to looking as good as mine. Call A&D Exterior and Remodeling they are fantastic!"

"Starting with the great initial visit by Terry Roszkiewicz of Rengency Garages and throughout the entire construction process including the final inspection, everything went perfectly. After investigating 3 other garage building companies in respect to quality of foundation, perfect workmanship and most of all the quality of material used in the construction, we signed the contract with Terry. They always kept us informed at each phase of the build - Pertfect communication process They build a wonderful garage. Most of all, we are proud of the new garage."

"John was recommended by a friend of ours and we liked him. So he did replace our old windows and also did some woodwork around the door. JF is very professional and very nice and easy to work with. Will recommend him anytime."

"I was very impressed with Orlando when he quickly returned my call for an estimate.  We were originally going to have him spackle and paint a bedroom and paint a hallway.  I asked him for an estimate for the rest of the bedroom level of our duplex.  We decided to have the entire project done at once :)
Orlando arrived each day with his crew.  We hardly even knew the crew was here, they were very quiet and worked all day!  They did a great job, paying close attention to every detail! 
We are very pleased with the job that Orlando's Paint Works did.  When they were finished, we asked for a quote for some exterior paining!!

"It went very well.  The employees have a fine attention to detail.  I ordered some moulding product online.  And had hoped to install  it myself ( I sometimes consider myself handy) Fortunately, I hired them! It would of been a nightmare for me and a project I would of never finished.  They noticed that the moulding thickness was not the same across all the pieces that I ordered, which would of caused real issues when installing.  They were able to fix the moulding and make my formal dining room which doubles as my client meeting room GORGEOUS! Quickly they moved onto the stair reconstruction.  I love it!!!
They were on-time everyday and cleaned up the mess every evening before they left. They were courteous, professional and knowledgeable of each project and offered alternative solutions to some of the hiccups we had along the way.
I have referred Jason and his team many times and will continue to use his services for my home refinishing needs."

"The worked was performed on time and on budget. There are only 2 elite preferred providers of James Hardie Siding in the Chicago area. Chicagoland Builders performed the work for a fraction of the price that the other elite preferred provider proposed, and the work was done beautifully. I would definitely use Chicagoland Builders again."
