Design-Build Contractors & Firms Near Chicago

“After meeting with several companies for our Schaumburg kitchen remodeling project, we decided to move forward with 4EVER Remodeling because their process felt more structured and realistic from the beginning including their design and remodel process. During the design phase, they explained the layout changes, cabinet configuration, electrical updates, plumbing work, material options, and overall timeline in much more detail than other contractors we interviewed. Our project was a full gut remodel that included demolition, new electrical, plumbing, drywall, flooring, cabinetry, painting, and finish work. Martin the carpenter paid close attention to the installation details throughout the project. Peter handled the plumbing work professionally, and Conrad completed all electrical work. One thing we found very helpful was the Buildertrend app, which simplified scheduling, product ordering, daily communication, invoicing, and progress tracking. The final walkthrough was thorough, and the team addressed all remaining list items before completion. The total project timeline was around 8 weeks, and overall we are very happy with the final result.”

“I recently completed a full gut renovation of the bathroom and a kitchen refresh in my 1-bedroom, 1-bath condo in Chicago, and I cannot say enough good things about my experience working with Angie Joy (designer) and Stanley (contractor). The bathroom project included removing the bathtub and replacing it with a walk-in shower, new flooring, cabinetry, lighting, paint — essentially a complete transformation. In addition, they completed a kitchen refresh that included painting, removing and replacing countertops, installing a new kitchen faucet, and updating the hardware. Both spaces turned out beautifully and feel completely upgraded. Not only was the quality of work excellent, but the project was finished ahead of schedule, which is almost unheard of in renovations. What truly set Angie and Stanley apart was communication and trust. I was not physically at the condo during the remodel, yet I always felt completely informed and confident in the progress. Their communication was clear, proactive, and consistent from start to finish. I also live in a building with a very strict HOA and tight security requirements, and they handled every rule, procedure, and restriction professionally and without issue. This alone was a huge relief and made the entire process stress-free. Angie’s design guidance, Stanley’s craftsmanship, and their shared professionalism and attention to detail made this an outstanding experience. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone — especially condo owners who need a team that understands logistics, building rules, and how to deliver high-quality work without hand-holding. If you’re looking for a designer and contractor you can truly trust, Angie Joy and Stanley are exceptional.”

“We used Chi Renovation & Design for our basement remodel (after a pretty bad flood), and am thrilled with how things came out. After we worked through the design aspects, it was time to get started on the build. When it comes down to it, the most important piece from my experience is working with a general contractor that cares, takes ownership of the project, and is fast to rectify issues that inevitably arise when renovating. I can safely say that Ron, who was the GC that managed our project embodied all of those qualities. I never had to prove to Ron why we may have needed something changed, fixed, or reworked; not only was he often already aware of it, he always took responsibility and got it done. He was always fair. Beyond that ownership, the subcontractors that work with Chi Reno & Design were excellent, especially the drywall and painter folks. Honestly, by far the best paint work that has been done on our house. To that end, the value of the work done was well worth the (reasonable) price. I am thrilled with how it came out, and my kids love playing down there everyday!”
