Featured Reviews for Buffalo Grove, IL Home Builders

Maddock Construction Company

Buffalo Grove, IL Home Builders

September 16, 2012

“Maddock Construction built our dream home 10 years ago and when our family needed a bit more room we did not hesitate to go to Larry Maddock again for his expert services. We have very particular needs and an eye for detail. Our needs have grown out of our love the Craftsman Period and in particular its realization in the Prairie Style Architecture. Larry and his father before him have prided themselves in bringing the greater Chicago area this genre of homes that was arguably born within its borders. Whether it be detailed trim, woodwork and built-ins or all the components that come together in custom homes to maximize character without blowing a budget you will find no finer custom home builder in greater Chicago and Southern Wisconsin to exceed your dreams. When it comes to an eye for detail, Larry is as impassioned as you will find a builder with the art of home building. This is not a person who lets the details fall to a job supervisor. All of his sub-contractors know him to be extremely attentive to detail and are keenly aware that he will hold them accountable for all of their work as representatives of the quality of his brand. We are always amazed about the frustration and spite that many behold to their builder after a custom home project as our experience could not have been more different. To the contrary, we built a relationship with someone who helped us realize our dreams. If you are a person who dreams about how the ideas of Houzz could come to life in your home, you would be remiss not to talk to Larry Maddock.”

“Through the design/rehab process, Hardin Builders offered unique ideas we really liked which allowed us to utilize every bit of additional space in our home. They were collaborative in their approach, and level set what truly could be done from an improvement stand point to help maximize funds.

“They were the builders for our dream home. They were considerate and worked with us every step of the build. They kept us informed about any changes promptly. They completed out home in the time frame they provided us in the beginning. We would use them again.”

Nottingham Builders Inc

Buffalo Grove, IL Home Builders

August 21, 2016

“Nottingham builders did an absolutely phenomenal job building our dream home! From helping us to identify an architect and being there every step of the way throughout the design phase, to providing complete transparency regarding budget and their profit margin (It's a simple cost + % model) and helping to ensure we stayed within our budget -- Nottingham was completely above board. No hidden fees. We were able to select our interior options for cabinetry, lighting, flooring, etc... on our own and were not forced to choose from a defined set of options. And the quality of the construction was second to none. This is a solid home! Owner Lee Norton is unlike any of the builders we interviewed. He is honest, trustworthy and genuinely cares about each and every project as if it were for his own family. His team, including the subcontractors he works with, are experienced, talented and good, decent people. If you are looking to build a new home or remodel an existing home, I highly recommend Nottingham Builders.”

“Kevin Jones Builders helped my husband and I build our dream home. Kevin really listened to our wish list and created plans that were beyond our imagination. He built us a 3400 sq ft Focus on Energy certified home - our utility bills are close to what we were paying for our first house which was a little over 1000 sq ft. We are extremely happy living here and highly recommend Kevin and his team for home building.”
