Titan Builders' impact in Chicago's remodeling market is largely due to our driving ambition to be the area's most client-focused company. According to Michael Dreier, our Founder and President of Titan Builders, "Our primary mission is to be a multi-faceted, modern, and innovative company. A total solution company that provides 5 star service to our customers irrespective of the size of the project". Titan Builders' perspective comes from years of working closely with our customers, so listening to them and their needs helped shaped our mission. That, along with a highly experienced team that have been in the remodeling industry for many years, positions us as a leader in Chicago's remodeling market. “Team Titan”, as we call ourselves, strives to consistently deliver results for our clients by providing quality workmanship and total integrity, regardless of the size or complexity of the project. We also believe that the success is not in the completion of the work, but in the client's overall positive experience as we help bring their remodeling ideas “to life” in their homes. Looking to the future, Titan Builders will be a continued leader in the home remodeling market, adopting new ways to engage and connect with both new and previous clients. With today's technology and a more sophisticated, educated customer, we are setting the bar even higher in terms of product and service, and we're proud of it! We are the finest group of professionals...our sales force, craftsmen, our staff, and our leadership are dedicated to achieving the highest results for our valued clients.
"I can't speak highly enough of Titan Builders. The owner Mike is terrific. He is so good at what he does, and I knew I wanted to work with him from the moment I first talked to him on the phone. He immediately felt like a friend, and someone I really did believe cared about doing a good job for me. I did interview 2 other companies, but got such a sense of integrity and honesty from Mike I picked him. He and his crew leader Robert entirely lived up to my expectations, and I am entirely satisfied with the job they did. I live in the suburbs, and our condo is a second home in the city, so I was apprehensive on how easy it would be to manage such an undertaking from 60 miles away, but Mike and Robert made it so easy. They answered every call and text promptly. They gave me advice on products to use and design ideas. When there were a few bumps in the road (nothing to do with them ), Mike talked me through them in a calm manner that immediately calmed me. When Best Buy totally messed up my order of appliances (again something that Titan had nothing to do with), Mike helped me not panic about it. Robert handled all the details of meeting with management of the condo and doing all the paperwork necessary, I never had to do a thing. They came in on budget, and in a timely manner, even being over 2 holidays and the few issues due to the age of the building that arose (and were handled seamlessly by Mike and Robert. Most importantly they did a fantastic job! We had a wall knocked down, sheet rocked over an old service door, the whole kitchen reconfigured, and Mike not only assured me it could all be done, he also gave me a few design ideas that I am really glad I listened to. I now have a beautiful kitchen, and I am sure have added tremendous value to our unit. I would use them again in a heartbeat, and my daughter will definitely be calling them when she remodels her basement. I am confident you will be glad if you call Mike!"

Chicagoland's Reliable Home Improvement Company servicing the City of Chicago and most suburbs. We specialize in full remodels of kitchens, bathrooms, condos and basements. We do not offer repair work or partial remodels. Celebrating 25 years in business.
"Miro redid our kitchen and half bath and we're thrilled with the results. We got a few quotes and ultimately went with Homewise Remodelers because the price was reasonable and Miro was so thorough in walking us through our options. He helped us select cabinets and worked through several versions of the kitchen layout until we were happy with it--we were easily able to swap out cabinet layouts and finishings, like adding a farmhouse sink. His crew were reliable, on-time, and respectful of our property throughout the remodel and we appreciated their attention to detail. They solicited our input on decorative details and were quick to fix things we didn't like, e.g., the location of kitchen cabinet pulls. We felt they treated our home as they would their own. The project even wrapped up a few days early. We would absolutely recommend Homewise Remodelers and choose them for future projects."

"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."

Magnetrons burn out when their magnets crack, terminals overheat, or internal connections loosen. Excess heat does most of the damage, so make sure the vents stay clear and the unit has breathing room on all sides. Good airflow and routine cleaning go a long way toward keeping the magnetron alive.
Signs that you need a microwave repair include the unit's inability to heat, extended cooking times, sparks, odd noises, burning odors, or running with the door open. A malfunctioning touchpad, an unlatched door, or a turntable that won’t spin are clear indicators that a repair is needed.
It makes sense to fix a microwave if the repair costs less than a new unit and the appliance isn’t past its prime. Built-in or high-end models are good candidates for repair, while a budget countertop unit over 10 years old is less expensive to replace. Before deciding, compare repair quotes with the price of a new model.
Wiping down the inside of the microwave each week keeps grease from clogging vents and trapping heat around key parts. A quick steam clean with lemon, vinegar, or baking soda loosens stuck-on food without harsh chemicals. Sticking to a simple cleaning schedule reduces overheating, extends the microwave’s lifespan, and helps it reach its full potential. Seeking advice from an appliance repair technician on maintenance tips can help you prolong the useful life of your microwave.
Microwaves last seven to eight years with consistent care. With consistent cleaning and proper maintenance, many units continue to operate efficiently for 10 years. In some high-end models, rigorous upkeep and advanced component quality can extend the unit’s performance for up to 15 years. Routine service checks and a maintenance schedule can safeguard your microwave’s longevity.
When you suspect your microwave fuse is blown, the appliance may not start, and the display might be unresponsive. To check a glass fuse, begin by disassembling the panel and inspecting the fuse area for melting or discoloration. To check a ceramic fuse, use a multimeter to test for continuity. A failed fuse stops the microwave from operating and must be replaced to avoid further damage.
