Exquisite Services is a Kitchen and Bath remodeling company with Granite, Marble, Quartz fabrication facilities in Libertyville, IL. We are an authorized Merillat cabinet dealer serving North Shore, Chicago and suburbs. Exquisite has a great collection of Granite and Marble slabs in different sizes in stock. This certainly saves money for bathroom and small kitchen counter top remodeling projects. We have great experience in installation of all flooring tiles and hardwood floors. Fireplace, stone surround and hearth design and fabrication is our expertise. We can save you time and money during remodeling because we do not need to order our cabinets and counter tops from other vendors. We will design and fabricate them in our facility and we will be in control of all aspects of delivery and installations. 10 Employees. Uses subs for some installations and labor. Cost is determined by the job. Travel charge will not apply in Chicagoland, northern Indiana and southern Wisconsin. No extra charge for after hours service. Additional contact number 847-791-9703. Additional email [email protected].

"Find another contractor - its too large of an investment - too many negative reviews!!!! I am first time reviewer for any product or service. Potential clients need to be aware of working with this company We had a horrible experience with Exquisite. 1. Poor communication - they didnt respect our time. told us multiple times they would be at our house in one hour and then would call 3 hours later saying they couldn't make the appointment. then we would have to follow-up to reschedule. 2. Subs - several of their subs were unprofessional and disparaged the owners while on the job site. 3. Quality - miscut stone and then tried to convince us that it was ok and told us about other imperfections in our house....or to "Cover up the mistake with a plant" lol. When we asked for the stone to be replaced at their cost, they said it was too late and that they would provide a discount instead. They do not value quality or service. 4. While we were negotiating a final price (based on contractor error) they filed a lien on our property.... before the work was even complete. Horrible ethics. After payment in full, still didnt complete the work. and we do not want them to come back in our home after this experience. I highly recommend finding a reputable contractor to work with on your renovation."

We are a small shop west of Chicago. We do all types of welding jobs. There is no job to big or to small for us. Cost is determined by the job. There is no travel charge. And We offer free estimates, so call us and let us at least bid on your job.

"Stan's did an excellent job communicating about this project and completing the work. They have a very professional office. They responded quickly to my request for a quote, work was scheduled and completed shortly thereafter. The work itself was great, I cannot even tell where they cut and replaced the posts that anchor the railing to the concrete."

Welding questions, answered by experts

Steel I-beams are an increasingly popular choice for supporting a structure because they support a large amount of weight with a small profile and without the need for load-bearing walls or supports underneath. This allows for more open floor plans, which most people tend to prefer. They also resist fire, pests, and rot and last for the lifetime of your home.

Beams made out of traditional lumber can often only span 8 to 12 feet without requiring vertical supports, so if you want a wider opening to create a more open floor plan, you might need an LVL beam. LVL beams can span up to around 30 feet without the need for load-bearing walls or vertical supports underneath, making them a better option for keeping your home as open and airy as possible.

Professional metal fabricators usually charge around $70 per hour. Three of the largest cost factors are the size and complexity of the project and the price of materials. The type of metal can impact the cost as much as the intricacy of the metal fabrication you want done. Another cost factor is your geographic location, as labor and materials can vary widely depending on the cost of living where you live.

No, beams are the primary load-bearers for flooring or roofing systems, and they distribute the weight of the structure to your foundational supports, while joists bear far less weight and distribute their loads to the beams. Beams are usually thicker and longer, and they have support posts or foundation walls beneath them for support.

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.
