"Kevin and Chris did a great job on our front porch project! They rebuilt the casing around the three posts and installed black steel railing which is sturdy and looks sharp! They were able to rebuild the posts to look like the idea picture we shared prior to starting the project. They were on time, respectful, and communicated with us throughout the project, confirming details regarding design choices, and letting us know next steps. We would definitely work with this team again!"

"We needed to repair/replace a section of our chain link fence and, more importantly, part of our neighbor's wooden fence and gate. They had been taken down by the crew who demo'd our old garage, but not replaced by the garage builder. Jaime was great to work with it! He is polite, reliable, very hard working and committed to doing the job right. The fence sections that he replaced/repaired are now in better condition than they were before they were taken down! I hope that he will be available to help with other small jobs in the future; I'm already making a list!"

Customers say: Quick response

"Robert and Dennis did a fantastic job with our kitchen renovation. We had some set backs with the permit process and the holidays, but Robert communicated everything along the way to the point that we had no concerns about the projects updates. Even when things were outside his control, he did everything above and beyond to help us get a functional kitchen again. Our countertops were delayed due to the holidays and Robert took it upon himself to get us temporary countertops so we could still host Christmas dinner with the family. I would highly recommend them for any project and will be using them again for any home improvement project."

Small jobs welcome

"I recently completed a remodeling project and got estimates from several local contractors. While most quotes were quite high, this contractor offered a much more reasonable price without cutting corners. I was a bit unsure at first because of the lower cost, but they exceeded my expectations. The quality of the work was excellent, and everything was done with great attention to detail. The team was professional, punctual, and kept the workspace clean throughout the project. They also communicated clearly and made sure all my preferences were considered. Overall, I’m extremely satisfied with the results. It’s not easy to find someone who delivers both great quality and a fair price, but this contractor definitely did. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and high-quality remodeling work."

"We hired Gabriel to sand and refinish our hardwood stairs as well as new railings. He did an outstanding job! His follow up is excellent, he gave us a very reasonable price and was always available to answer questions or concerns. He's also just about the nicest soul you will ever meet! Would highly recommend Gabriel for any hardwood flooring. We will be using him again in the future!"

Treehouse Builders questions, answered by experts

Before starting greenhouse building, gather your current plat of survey to confirm property boundaries and setback requirements. Document your exact zoning classification and any active HOA guidelines, as these dictate allowable sizes and designs. Calculate your existing lot coverage by measuring current structures. Finally, note the locations of electrical panels, water shutoffs, and known utility lines across your IL property to ensure safe and efficient utility connections.

Helpful?

Local professionals prioritize strict permit compliance before beginning any greenhouse building. Once approved, contractors focus on excavating the foundation below the 42-inch frost line to ensure structural stability. Next, they address drainage to manage the heavy clay soils common in Northbrook. Builders then construct a frame engineered for high wind and snow loads. Finally, they complete utility rough-ins and secure the building envelope before freezing temperatures arrive.

Helpful?

Your property's existing layout directly dictates your greenhouse building options. High lot coverage from existing sheds or patios limits the allowable size of your new structure. The heavy clay soil in Northbrook requires proper grading and drainage installation before pouring a foundation. Additionally, mature tree roots complicate excavation, and steep slopes demand advanced foundation work. Accessible utility connections simplify the project, while unpermitted existing structures cause immediate delays.

Helpful?

The local climate heavily influences greenhouse building. Because Northbrook experiences harsh winters, your structure must support heavy snow loads and strong winds off Lake Michigan. You must place foundation footings below the 42-inch frost line to prevent frost heave. Extreme temperature swings also require durable glazing and insulation. Plan your construction between April and November, as frozen ground across IL limits foundation work during the winter months.

Helpful?

Start your greenhouse building project by scheduling a pre-application meeting with local officials to confirm zoning rules and setback requirements. Hire a licensed IL contractor to ensure all work meets state standards. Request utility marking well in advance to prevent excavation delays. Factor permit processing times into your schedule, and design your heating and ventilation systems early to handle the extreme seasonal temperature shifts in Northbrook.
