Get matched with top treehouse builders in Darien, IL

"Garage was built well. Wasn’t happy with the concrete guys they used.(0 stars)Thought I’d have a patio poured as they did the slab for the garage to make it easier. They ended up sloping it towards the house. Water runs towards my house on rainy days and sits behind my basement foundation. Very noticeable by eye too. When I put a table or chair on it, the whole set sits crooked. I have to wedge it with a piece of wood to keep it level. I have cracks in several places as well after the first year which I know no one guarantees but thats besides the point. Called them to address the issue but never got a response to the problem. I’ve had to look at it everyday for the last 2 years and it frustrates me. Called them back, explained the situation again…. even suggested to redo it at cost….they said they would get back to me ….but no response…again. They tell you about how good they are but when you try to address it, they don’t do anything. I guess I’ll have to tear it out and it replaced by someone else. I don’t like leaving bad reviews but I gave them plenty of opportunities to make it right. It’s ashamed because I had a lot of people asking me for referrals. I even paid more that other quotes thinking they were different. I didn’t feel confident in recommending them. If anyone wants to see the work, please let me know. Hope it was worth it guys! UPDATE: 4/24 Bob proactively reached out to me and was unaware of the issues I had with the concrete. Internal communication issue? I don’t know. Apparently they've had issues with that concrete contractor and no longer use them. Garage4you said they want to make it right. Totally wasn't expecting that. Currently in the process of correcting the issue. I will update the review once completed. Just thought I'd let everyone know as you are gearing up for garage work soon. Maybe I was wrong and there are good ones out there. We shall see. UPDATE: 5/25 Well....a year has gone by and Issue has not been resolved. I reached out toward the end of summer thinking that they were busy and would do it in fall. Never happened. Obviously couldn't do it in winter. I told them let’s set it for early spring. I had to called in April to follow up. There has been no sense of urgency on their part. I keep getting the run around as if they didn't want to do it anymore. Not sure why this is so hard. You had a different contractor come out to validate that it wasn't done right. Then you put it in writing what needs to happen and it still hasn't. I even have all the texts archived. This is getting frustrating again but goes back to my original intuition. They are really good at telling you "how good they are" but when it comes to things like this, don't want to take responsibility; even though they acknowledged it. (which is worse in my opinion) Just wanted to get this done before I beautify my backyard as I know it will get torn up. I will give them one more week to schedule or tell me what is happening. If I don't hear back, I i'll most likely have to take it to the next step. Hopefully my next update is more promising. I've posted some pics so you can see what I am talking about. Pics don't do justice. 6/25/2025-Well. Now they are ignoring me. Guess I have to take it to the courts.............This is why contractors get a bad name! 9/25. Formal demand letter sent before it goes to courts"

"slow response times. no onsite visit, so had to confirm all measures myself. good product in the end."

"Our experience with AP Builder was great. Angelo was very knowledgeable and professional, keeping us informed every step of the way. This was a big important project for our home and I am extremely happy with how it came out! The cost was very reasonable and there were no surprises, everything was open and honest. I would definitely use them again and recommend to friends and family. Thank you AP!"

"Timely and professional. Responsive and completed the job faster than expected with cleanup. "

"EZ Handyman was very efficient in removing and installing toilet by himself. He got it done in a matter of hours after contacting him including picking up toilet and bringing to my house. Will definitely use him again for other projects."

"Rushed the whole job. Hired painters he had never used. Destroyed my entire house knowing we still needed to live in it. Didn?t clean up after he left. Didn?t completed job. Sloppy detail work see photos. I want the work completed but I don?t want him back in my house. Please do not hire. Menards didn?t even want him in there store anymore. Quoted me an extremely low price just to get job. So many things he left out. "

"Brian was beyond exceptional!!!! He exceeded all expectations and went beyond to make suggestions that we never would have thought of. We had assorted jobs and he performed them all with such expertise. The caulking in our shower stall, he was not fond of the colored caulk I bought and steered me to what would look and serve us best. He was so right and it matches beautifully. He painted our laundry room and bathroom. In the laundry room he had to sparkle holes first. He raised the door stop so it wouldn't bang on the wall and recreate the hole. We didn't think about that, but he diagnosed the problem and fixed it. He painted the bathroom and was a perfectionist in respackling and repainting this section so it was totally unnoticeable. Brian asked for silicone spray because the door he kept going in and out of squeaked badly. I will go out and get some, I always relied on WD40 and he explained the difference. Every step of the way Brian treated our house as his own, we were so impressed!!!!!!"

"Great team, they were very flexible and had great suggestions that improved on our initial plans. Will definitely hire again!"

"The handyman came to fix a bathroom that wasn't closing anymore probably due to house settling. Door was fixed but I forgot to check the lock at the time and the repair man didnt check it either. The lock didn't fit into the stike plate. I called to have him come back and fix it and offered to pay the minimum price again. They smade two appointments and didn't show up for either. They are a poor representation of what I would expect from Angie. Never again."
