ONE Custom Builders

Working with Jon on our custom home build was a pleasant experience from start to finish. We began our journey in the early stages, actively searching for the perfect lot to build upon. Jon quickly became an invaluable partner, helping us thoroughly evaluate various options and ultimately guiding us to the optimal lot based on our specific needs and desires. At this time, I had spoken with many custom home builders, but Jon stood out to me based on his values-family, quality, and transparency. What truly sets Jon apart is his deeply personalized approach. He took the time to sit down with us, not just to discuss blueprints, but to genuinely understand our personal lives, our inspirations, and our vision for a home. Shortly after, Jon translated these insights into mock-up designs that not only met but significantly exceeded our expectations. He is truly a custom builder, unique in his ability to take our initial inspiration, craft stunning designs from it, and then meticulously bring that vision to life, keeping us well-informed and engaged throughout the entire journey. Jon consistently excels with his attention to detail, remarkable creativity (especially when working within a specific budget), unwavering quality in his work, and outstanding interpersonal skills. These qualities combined made what could have been a daunting process, incredibly enjoyable. We highly recommend Jon to anyone looking for a truly custom home builder who prioritizes client vision and delivers exceptional results.

Building our custom home with One Builders was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. Jon invested in understanding our needs to help us choose the right piece of land and design a home that was personal, functional and timeless. He truly does it all from start to finish and makes the process painless and enjoyable. One Builders has an unwavering commitment to detail and quality. Jon's keen eye for design, ensured delightful surprises, beauty, and personalization throughout every inch of our house. We never felt like just another project—it felt like this home was "our baby" that we created together. Every design choice was carefully explained, communication was always clear, and we always knew where things stood. Now that we’re living in our home, we appreciate the craftsmanship even more. The design is both beautiful and functional, and it perfectly reflects what we had hoped for (and more!). If you’re looking for a builder who listens, cares, and delivers excellence from start to finish, we couldn’t recommend One Builders enough.

We are so happy and grateful to have found Jon at ONE custom builders. Building a custom home takes time and patience , but the end product that Jon delivered is a work of art . We give full credit to Jon for our home design and all the unique features and attention to detail that are viewed daily. Jon has a natural mind for design and construction and always gives thought out reasoning for doing something , he thinks of multiple renditions and shares his thought process including all pros and cons. Our family and friends still to this day walk around the house and are amazed at what Jon built. We are loving our home and watching the family grow here. Thank you Jon- Mark and Heather

Our company has worked on many building projects with The One Group and I have known Jon Elliott for over 30 years; using his company for personal jobs as well. Jon is truly a professional contractor with his clients’ best interest at the top of his priority list. Jon is one of the most conscientious general contractors I have ever had the pleasure to work with and I look forward to working with Jon on many future projects.

I hired ONE Custom Builders to completely redo my loft condo in downtown Chicago on Washington Street. With the exception of the walls and shower, we ripped everything out and started over, including the built in fireplace. Our goal was to upgrade and modernize the unit. ONE Builders did everything from installing hard wood floors throughout, to a back drop wall and modernized fireplace, to a new island and counter tops, to new cabinets, to closing in the loft bedrooms, to two new bathrooms top-to-bottom. I couldn't be happier with the outcome! They did an amazing job in every way, shape and form. The design advice was extremely helpful and we turned a normal loft condo into a stunning and modernized two bedroom apartment. Great job guys! - Shawn

Jon Elliott designed and built our new house and we couldn’t be more thrilled with it. We especially appreciated Jon’s careful attention to detail and style and his willingness to take our needs into consideration. He is extremely knowledgeable about construction issues and housing design and was quick with recommendations and ideas to bring our dream home to life. Jon is also a very personable guy who values family and relationships, which added an important dimension to our working relationship. He really cared about how we would live in the house, and now we are blessed with an amazing house. Again, we couldn’t be more thrilled!

I was remodeling a second bathroom and The One Group's knowledge and design expertise specifically Jon was amazing. He is a gifted designer andn managed to increase the space and functionality of our bathroom. The team is very professional and clean. The attention to detail is great for our kids. The work was done a day early and right on the budget. There were no surprises. Our bathroom came out incredible and is a highlight of the house. The One Group is dies it all from design to procurement of materials to install. They even followed up after to see hoe our kids like the bathroom. I have found a company I can trust and use for future projects.

We built our current home with this company and they did an excellent job. All our requests and concerns were addressed immediately and they made the home building process flawless. We love our home and even contacted them again when we wanted to expand. It was a pleasure to work with the One Group.

The One Group did an awesome job building out our offices. The project was done well, on budget and one time.

The One Group did a fantastic job of renovating my downtown condominium. This was no small task--everything from the floors and ceilings to a brand new kitchen, bathroom upgrades and extensive millwork. I was impressed with the quality and professionalism I received during the entire project. As an interior designer, I couldn't have been happier with the result. The creativity, knowledge and dedication that I experienced on a daily basis was much appreciated; the vendors and laborers working on the site were courteous, trustworthy and skilled. I would recommend The One Group to anyone, no matter the size of the project.
