We are a locally owned and operated basement finishing specialist servicing the Chicagoland area. Our focus is providing clients with a clear, upfront vision of expectations through a design/build approach. Our free design service provides potential customers with a collaborative consultation geared towards budget, wants, needs and lifestyle.

"Very organized. As a working parent in a household with small children, Matrix’s process was very smooth. Once permits were approved, building moved according to the quoted timeline. We appreciated the app that kept homeowners in the loop about who would be on site on a given day and what was being done. Project oversight was very good. Our project manager was very responsive to our questions/concerns and a helpful go-between with the sub-contractors and inspectors."

Welcome to Stress-Free and High-Quality Remodeling. A great remodeling experience doesn’t happen by accident—it starts with choosing the right company that offers excellence through expert project consultants, professional designers, dedicated project managers, master installers, on-time project completion, and a 3-year project warranty. Our smooth, simple, and innovative approach ensures that every step of your remodeling journey is enjoyable, fulfilling, and frustration-free. From design to management to installation—we do it right. No exceptions. If you're ready to successfully complete your kitchen, bathroom, basement, or home remodeling project, schedule your in-home consultation with one of our friendly team members at 847-809-3355.

"The quality of work is fantastic, and Marek is the best project manager you could ask for. The reason I removed one star is because I believe the quoted contract price, specifically for allowances, can improve. You should expect to add a minimum of $20,000 to your contract price. I also recommend referring to your contract throughout to ensure you aren’t getting an extra charge for something that should be included. Like I said, the quality of work is fantastic, but the up front pricing can improve."

Basement waterproofing and foundation repair company. Family operated since 1957 with over 500,000 dry basements. Free consultations. Lifetime warranties available. Award winning company.

"Good work in general; our basement no longer sees water for over 3 years now, which is the most important thing. But there were some real issues: The biggest issue is that USW did not adhere to local electrical codes, and did not arrange for a final inspection of the project. So we didn't find out that it wasn't to code until years later, and now it's a big hassle and minor cost to fix and get the permits. Ask your local gov yourself what you need to do for permits and inspections; don't rely on USW! USW said they would seal any foundation cracks found along the way; they didn't do this until I bugged the warranty dept about it (but they did do it eventually). USW sent someone out for the "annual checkup"... over 2 years after the install. It's a good thing they (eventually) did, because they discovered the backup battery wasn't charging. Now I know to check this stuff better myself. Prices also vary wildly and are kind of negotiable (I'd give more detail but I'm out of space)"

"We had a wonderful experience working with KSRP Construction! From initial contact to job completion, communication was always very prompt and concise. We were needing to build a wall to close up our loft (to convert into a bedroom) and KSRP provided fair pricing, were quick and efficient and got the job done right. Roberto and Sebastian were incredibly professional, polite, skilled and detailed. Not only were we impressed with the work itself, but these guys were so thorough from initial tarping to final clean up.

Patrick started plumbing in 2000 and opened Lorenz Plumbing in 2019. With over 25 years of experience, we are your local, go-to, plumbing company. Our goal is to provide, professional, honest, and reliable service. We want to give you the best service for a fair price. Check us out on Google for more reviews from our customers.

"I originally spoke with the owner Patrick Lorenz,, who gave me an idea how we should approach this problem. I thought I needed a tankless hot water heater, which is very expensive but he gave me an alternative that I’m happy with. I had a tankless hot water heater in the past and that’s all I knew about getting instant hot water. The system he set up for me is just as good and cost pennies on the dollar compared to tankless. Might not be good for everyone, but it’s served our purpose. And I’m 100% satisfied I would highly recommend Lorenz Plumbing to anyone looking for a professional job and save a few dollars."

Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

Yes, a drought can cause a house to settle, but the amount depends on the type of soil around your foundation as well as the foundation design itself. The deeper the foundation, for example, the lower its vulnerability to soil chances. Additionally, well-draining soil with low amounts of clay is less likely to change and allow a house to settle during a drought.

Regrading around your home’s foundation requires you to stay 4 inches below the top of the foundation and 4 inches below the bottom of the siding. Too high and heavy rain will make its way into your home; too low, and you may experience an increase in critters and pests.

Foundation problems will likely get worse over time if they aren’t repaired. As foundation problems progress, your home may experience signs of structural damage, water damage, and health and safety risks—all of which will only get more expensive to fix the longer you wait. Repair foundation problems as soon as you’re aware of them to avoid complex and expensive remediation in the future.

Yes, it is possible to install a drainage system after landscaping your yard. While it may require some adjustments to your existing landscaping, a skilled professional can design and implement a drainage solution that complements your landscape design. It’s important to work with a knowledgeable drainage expert who can minimize disruption to your landscaping while effectively addressing drainage issues. This ensures both functionality and aesthetic appeal coexist harmoniously in your yard.

Building a traditional exterior stormwater drainage system ranges from $600 to $15,000. Therefore, ensure you know which type of stormwater drainage system is the most suitable for your property. Basic open trench or channel drains cost $30 to $100 per linear foot, whereas concealed systems tend to be pricier.
