"T&K Builders LLC, Terry and his Team were the ultimate professional. What was promised was delivered and more. Terry and his Team explained all the steps being performed. There was no surprise when it came to the invoice. I would hire T&K Builders LLC, Terry and his Team again and again for any of my home improvement projects - large or small."

"I loved making one phone call and having them take care of the rest!! I had my gutters, siding, and roof all replaced hassle free. I was able to pick out what I wanted from the comfort of my home. Each crew came out and finished each job in 1 day! They cleaned up very well. Which was awesome since I have 4 small kids and 2 dogs who live outside! The owners actually came out as the house was being worked on and made sure everything was going as planned!"

"Overall it went well. The only thing I would say is that initially they wanted to use a part from an entire faucet combo (cost about $168) when eventually the part could be purchased seperately for about $40.  But I asked questions and they accommodated by going pick up the part at home depot.  That was very helpful as we were able to get all the work done that day.  Jennifer was great to work with....very responsive and timely follow up.

"Orlando was very responsive to email and phone calls and came out quickly for an estimate. He was very flexible with scheduling the paint job, but we had to delay because of our schedule. We hope to be able to reschedule the job in mid April. We look forward to seeing the quality of the work because the customer service is good.

"My experience was excellent.  Mastercat has been my first choice for mold remediation and bio-hazard clean-up for years.  I have hired them on many projects and I always receive courteous and responsive customer service, competitive quotes, and excellent results.  I have recommended Mastercat many times in the past.  Donny and his team are great to work with and do great work."

"First Choice Construction Group always stands to deliver. Excellent, quality work with an unmatched presence in the marketplace. Aside from the quality work, the service was second to none. These guys are truly connectors in the community, and I would recommend them to anyone that has a need for this type of general contracting/remodeling. Tim Szatko has been an outstanding resource to not only myself, but my clients as well. Tim has always put my needs first as a customer, and helped me tackle a multitude of pain points. I would Highly recommend getting in touch with Tim, as he is truly a relationship builder, who is passionate about having an impact on his clients lives!"

"The end result was a terrific James Hardie siding addition that is the envy of my neighbors. The addition looks like a new addition and I could not be happier with the final result. The storm doors that were installed were beautiful and excellent quality. Mike and his crew were great to work with. They kept in communication about everything. Customer satisfaction is very important to Chicagoland Builders. After the project was done, there was a followup visit to take care of any little details that needed to be addressed. Based on the quality of the work and the price that we paid I would highly recommend Chicagoland Builders."

Custom Home Builders FAQs, answered by experts

To get a quote from a builder or general contractor, contact them over the phone or online and explain your project. If you already have house plans drawn up, they’ll need to review them to determine the project's scope before providing you with a quote. Ask for your quote in writing and compare quotes from several pros before choosing the best one for your needs.

Yes, professionals offer mantel and surround customization for aesthetic appeal.

Ultimately, a work warranty is only as reliable as the contractor you’ve hired. That’s why trust and reputation are such important factors, in addition to having a solid contract and confirming appropriate licensing, insurance, and bonding. When looking for a contractor, it’s a good idea to read online reviews and ratings to see what kind of experience past customers have had. Issues with your contractor can make for an unsatisfying renovation process, but a reliable contractor can make the process go as smoothly as possible.

It’s typically more cost-effective to move a building along with its accessories than to demolish and rebuild it from scratch. However, that’s only if you can move the accessories without damaging them. However, if you plan to demolish the accessories anyway, it is advisable to do so before the move to save costs.

In most states, you can build an in-law suite on your property as long as you follow local building codes. However, it's important that you have enough space on your property to accommodate the new structure. A functional in-law suite in your backyard will require between 300 and 800 square feet of space.
