Masonry specialists servicing the Chicago area suburbs for over 60 years. 100% SATISFACTION GUARANTEED. Family owned - 19 employees - no subcontractors - all experienced tuckpointers & union journeymen. Cost is determined by the job. Free estimates, no travel charges. Fully licensed, bonded and insured. A+ Rating from Better Business Bureau. Super Service Award (2009, 2010, 2012, 2013, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2020) from Angie's List.
"Olsen has twice replaced the mortar on our patio steps. The first time work was completed in less than two hours, which seemed quick considering the amount of steps and price charged. About 12 months later the mortar began to crack and fall out again. Olsen completed the second repair as part of their warranty on work completed. Update: Fast forward another year, and the mortar is cracking and falling out again. Upon further investigation it was determined the problem was with the original installation of steps five years earlier by builder. Given that the original cracking started to appear two years after installation by builder, Olsen should have known this was not a normal tuckpointing job since that is their business and expertise, especially when they had to come out and redo their work under a warranty guarantee. Ultimately had to have stones removed completely and installed again with different mortar and adhesive. Olsen did not do this work as their bid was 25% more than other bid I received. I would potentially hire Olsen again, but would do my own due diligence on the potential project and not rely on Olsen for figuring things out."

The timeline for custom closet installation varies based on project complexity and scope. Simple reach-in closets can often be completed in less than a day, while elaborate walk-in designs may require one to two days or potentially longer for intricate custom features.
Professional installers can finish standard projects within a single day, though additional time may be needed for specialized carpentry work, custom finishes, or extensive storage systems.
For areas with high humidity, moisture-resistant materials offer superior performance and longevity. Melamine, laminate, and vinyl-coated wire systems resist warping and moisture damage better than untreated wood options. If you prefer wood elements, consider cedar (which naturally deters insects) or properly sealed hardwoods with moisture-resistant finishes. Proper ventilation also plays a crucial role in humidity management—incorporating vents or louvered elements helps maintain airflow and prevent moisture accumulation.
Custom closet installations recover 50% to 60% of their cost in added home value. Well-organized storage spaces represent significant selling points, particularly in master bedrooms and other primary living areas. The greatest value comes from thoughtfully designed systems featuring versatile storage solutions, neutral color schemes, and quality construction. While you may not recoup the entire investment, enhanced marketability often translates to faster sales and stronger buyer interest.
Irregular spaces actually present excellent opportunities for custom closet solutions. Professional designers can create storage systems that maximize awkward corners, angled walls, and unusual dimensions that standard prefabricated units cannot accommodate.
Custom-built components can be precisely tailored to your specific spatial constraints, though such specialized fabrication may increase costs compared to standard installations. The resulting storage efficiency often justifies the additional investment, transforming challenging spaces into highly functional storage areas.
