Lowell Custom Homes
New & Custom Home Builders in 61101
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 5, 2012
“After working on many projects with Lowell Management in the past few years, I have the highest regard for Scott Lowell, Todd Cauffman, and all of their project managers and subcontractors. Every client of theirs that I have worked with has been thrilled from the design phase through completion. Lowell builds a custom home with beautiful details and well thought out plans. They provide defined vision and high end detailing that exceeds the expectations of every homeowner that they build for. I highly recommend Lowell Management for any size project that you have in mind.”
Engerman Companies
New & Custom Home Builders in 61101
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 4, 2015
“The Engerman crew were professional and helpful from the design development all the way through to the completion details of my project. The owner was friendly and very attentive to our needs and budget. Overall- I would say that we got much more value for our money then we ever expected! The project manager was great and helped me understand the process of my build/renovation and had amazing communication by keeping me in the loop on timelines and progress milestones. I am not in the construction field so therefore I don't know the right questions to ask or what is standard practice. I was grateful to be treated with respect, as they educated me and involved me in the process. As the build was underway their onsite guys where courteous and always made sure to wave and say good morning, the office manager was welcoming and very helpful, and the owners wife even stopped out to help me pick out paint colors and tiles! As they finished the build, the project manager made sure to use quality materials such as solid core doors, poplar trim, high end fixtures, and custom cabinets. Engermans crew definitely cared, and paid attention to details that ultimately make the house shine. The end result was a beautiful home that my family loves! I would hire this builder again, and again. Thanks for all the hard work!!”

New & Custom Home Builders in 61101
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 8, 2016
“I can't say enough about the quality work and personal attention we received from Biron homes. They've done a complete master bath remodel and a complete kitchen remodel for our Naperville home and the results were amazing. Our jobs included electrical, plumbing, cabinets, counter tops, flooring and fixtures and Biron Homes are experts in all of it.. The very first time we met with them they listened to what we wanted to do, what our budget was, and then applied their experience and vision to come up with a design that far exceeded our expectations . The quality craftsmanship, attention to detail and professional service we received from Biron homes is superior to any experience we've had with contractors in the past. If anything was not up to our satisfaction they fixed it no questions asked. Phone calls were returned promptly, workers were there when promised and jobs were completed on time and on budget. This company is top notch.”
