Chicagoland homeowners who want remodeling services and quality renovations choose our honest, level-headed crews to get the job done. Request a consultation to get started on your next home renovation project. For over 41 years, we’ve taken care of specialized residential renovation projects. THP Builders LLC began as a small, yet mighty contracting company in the Oak Park area, working with property owners to revamp bathrooms, kitchens, basements, and more. Since then, we’ve expanded and now service over 15+ cities with professional, licensed, and insured crews.
"I had THP remodel my entire house. – Total Home Professionals LLC expanded the Kitchen, Family room, Dining room, Bedrooms, Basement, 2 Bathrooms….. They had to knock down walls, remove old cabinets, put up new drywall, pull up old flooring, install hardwood – including laying hardwood on stairs. They stripped the kitchen to the studs – redesigned for a more functional and conducive family area – installed appliances and custom-made cabinets. They remodeled 2 Bathroom from the studs of the walls. I can go on and on. They basically remodeled our entire house. The crew worked M-F, were here all day during the projects and respected the home and family. They cleaned up after themselves and always acted professionally. THP explained what was going to happen, what was occurring and what to expect. I recommend Total Home Professionals LLC and their crews to do your next remodeling project in another house!"

"Hire Welkin for your home renovation, you won’t regret it! Bottom line: Radu and his guys will care for your home like it was their own home. Their prices are fair, the work is quality, they tidy up at the end of the day, they are always on time, and they stayed on schedule even after some unexpected hang ups during the renovation. Here’s some background on our reno: My mother moved into a new home. To help my mother with her new home, I used the home inspection report to prioritize what we needed to do to fix the home and make it functional for my elderly mom. We suspected water damage in the basement due to the bubbling in the dry wall. We hired a professional mold removal service that ripped out the affected drywall and affected cheap floor tile. The mold removers suspected asbestos tile underneath the cheap laminate tile that was removed. We got it tested and they were right, we had to hire a professional asbestos removal service. Then came Welkin to do the beautifying of my mom’s home. Radu from Welkin gave us a quote on quite a few things: fixing the foundational cracks in the wall that allowed a small drip of water to come through, replacing dry wall, replacing the few rotted wood behind the walls, installing new flooring in the basement and office, painting the walls, replacement of our old stubborn sliding glass door, and a complete rehab of the main second floor bathroom with an addition of a laundry chute. I have never done a renovation like this before so I had a lot to learn along the way. Radu was extremely patient and answered all my questions with careful attention and supportive feedback. When we were not sure how to approach a particular aspect of the renovation, like how to frame the bathroom window that was located in the shower with tile, he helped solve the problem with a cost effect way that looked beautiful. He works practically and cost effectively without sacrificing design. My mom loves her renovated bathroom, basement, and office. Everything looks fresh, clean, and put together. I would work with Welkin in a heartbeat and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, smart, trustworthy contractor."

FAQs for home building projects in Wilmette, IL
Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity.
One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.
The pros and cons or advantages and disadvantages of building a new house include:
Pros:
It’s all new, so you should have several years before you need to pay for major repairs like a new roof.
It’s under warranty, so many fixes within that warranty period should be covered.
You get to build the house to your specifications.
Cons:
You have to make a LOT of decisions.
You will almost certainly deal with building delays.
It can take a lot of work to stay within your budget.
Building can be more expensive than buying an existing house.
The average price per square foot to build a house is about $150 per square foot. Overall, the cost to build a house ranges anywhere from $100 to $500 per square foot, depending on where you build. The primary cost factors include location, size, and style of house you build.
Hiring a contractor to build your home is a big commitment. So be sure to ask as many questions up front as possible. Here are a few questions to ask a prospective home builder:
How many years of experience do you have?
Are you licensed, bonded, and insured?
Do you have worker’s compensation?
How long have you worked with your subcontractors?
How do you handle garbage and waste disposal?
Do you provide a guarantee or warranty on your work?
Do you give free estimates?
Do you offer design services?
How do you handle change orders?
Can you provide at least three references?
Can I see some of the work you’ve done?
