I was in a horrible place after my new construction business flooded and drywall and flooring and cabinetry had to be removed due to city sewer backup. After working with my landlords, insurance, and the building HOA, I was still on the hook for a significant amount for repairs. Ilan met me the day after I called and got his team started on the project almost immediately. His guys are professional, efficient, and hardworking. You cannot go wrong with this team. I am so grateful with how they helped me during this difficult period. And that I was able to get back to business! I will definitely use them again should the need arise. read more

After scheduling an estimate review of work almost a week ago, they called to say now that the don't service my area. A responsible person would think that they should have been aware of this before booking appointment. They have taken a appointment slot away from other reputable companies who seem to be a little more professional in how they present themselves. read more

I've used Chicago Constructions a few times now on different renovation projects including hanging cabinets, installing baseboard trim, flooring, new sub floor, and paint. As a real estate investor they have been great to use. They charge a flat hourly rate per worker and are insured. I plan on using them in the future! read more

Elan and team were able to get a backyard studio shed in November in Chicago, taking advantage of the seasonally warmer weather we had recently. The space is nice and insulated and has been a place we can work, play, or lounge even in colder weather. We cant wait to use it more and use it as another outside space next spring. read more

Last week, we had Ilan out for an estimate. He came to the house and told us he could start the next day and that business was very slow. He sent his proposal on an invoice form rather than a proposal or estimate form. It included a waiver holding him not responsible for any damages that he caused -- something we would never sign. I can't imagine anyone reading and signing that waiver. I questioned the wording on what Ilan called the "proposal" that said Home Depot would contact us regarding payment for construction materials. Ilan stated that construction materials would be paid for by him as he verbally told me and texted me. So why say Home Depot would contact me for payment? He claims to be a lawyer, so he should know that should not be in the contract, but he never offered to remove the wording. We were not getting a good feeling from any of this. The next day, I contacted Ilan and told him we had retained another company. Today, I got an email asking for payment of his invoice for $14,500. Total fraud/scam. I responded and told him I would contact the Illinois Attorney General's office. It is questionable what his name and business really are besides a scam. Beware. read more

My wife and I wanted to do some remodeling work on a property we purchased. When I called in to get a bit more information from them, they answered in vague answers, were unprofessional, and hung up on us. Would not recommend as customer service is not their strong suit, quite rude. read more

Ilan started our home remodel right away, communicated well throughout the project, and finished on time and on budget! Big project, including gutting bathrooms and a kitchen and replacing with all new surfaces and fixtures, repairing & installing plumbing and electrical, refinishing hardwood floors, installing tile floors, repairing and installing new drywall, and painting. Ilan and his crew did a great job and we are happy with what is essentially a new home! read more

We needed some bathroom remodeling and we searched for a company that could help us. We contacted numerous companies and from "many" contacts, one company came to our home, made disrespectful comments and joked in a "not so funny" way about our inquiries about the cost of the job. Then, we spoke to Chicago Constructions. Every question was answered in a knowledgable way and the job was quoted and completed in a skilled, respectful, and efficient way. It was a pleasure working with them and we're already planning future jobs with them. We give our highest ratings to them. read more

They were ON it! Got all of my tasks done quickly and at a reasonable price. Love this company. Will use again. Highly recommend.

Ilan and his crew did an amazing job! As a first time home owner he was very patient and walked thru the whole process, also answered all my novice questions! I decide to move a washer/dryer to free up some wall space in the kitchen, and the project came out better than I could have hoped! They even did a few extra things for me like hanging a new ceiling fan and putting in a medicine cabinet. They also do painting! A one stop shop! read more

The team was incredibly quick to respond to our work request and had someone over to complete the project in a matter of days. The work was well done and our handyman even helped with a few other small projects while he was here. We'd definitely use Chicago Constructions again. read more

This story started out as a compliance nightmare in Cicero, trying to save a unit from possibly being deconverted, but the city had said I couldn't do what needed to be done to achieve compliance! Ugh! I knew I needed to find a GC to do all this as this was my first time learning about the permit process and all the headaches with that. Furthermore, so many GCs I came across either seemed incompetent or wouldn't touch a job for less than $100k! I feel very lucky to have come across Ilan and his crew. Not only was he a pleasure to work with, he helped take over meeting all the compliance work and effectively became my liason with the city. He was able to articulate things in a way that made the city realize their position was untenable (perhaps his former attorney skills?). All the time, he was very reassuring about my concerns and great with texting me photos and info of the work in progress. He redid a bathroom, gutters, plumbing work, electrical, and tuckpointing! As with any large job there are always a few obstacles, but all in all, Ilan's process worked, and was very fair in the way he managed the job and each work change order. His incremental approach to work ("let's get in there and see what we have before quoting too much!") was great as I didn't feel I was getting a quote for work that may not even be relevant. Highly recommend Ilan if you need a very fair and fair-priced GC who will get all your work done in quick order. Will definitely look to hire Ilan again for my next big project! read more

We contacted Chicago Constructions for an emergency drywall repair that was needed asap. We seen the great reviews on Yelp and decided to try them out. They were very prompt in responding to our questions about quoting and they were able to get someone out immediately to come by to repair our drywall. They sent their best worker Giovanni and he was prompt, professional and knowledgeable. While looking at the drywall, Giovanni noticed we had a problem with a Cooper pipe that was leaking onto the drywall. He assessed the issue and was able to reach out to management to let them know there was an issue that would cause him an issue to repair the wall properly. They gave us a quick quote for the plumbing that would be needed and they sent a plumber right over to fix the Cooper pipe. They were able to fix the pipe and complete the drywall all in the same day. Thanks Chicago Constructions! We will definitely use them for any future projects. read more

I had an electric fireplace that was inoperable due to a burned out blower. The electric fireplace insert was grouted into our mantle and required extra care to cut out because it is encircled by tile. Chicago Constructions answered my inquiry the following morning (I had submitted it at 10pm on a Sunday), and had an estimator out on Tuesday. The gentleman that came out for the estimate was incredibly confident that his workers could accomplish this project without damaging the tile -a tough task. The next day their technician, Santiago, came out and began the work. He used a grinder in a way that could be described as surgical. Santiago was perfect in cutting/removing the fireplace, and even disconnected and wire nutted the wires for protection. The project was completed in a span of 4 days, from the moment of inquiry to completion. Recommend these guys for any general contracting, and will be using them in the future for any work I may need. read more

We had Chicago Constructions come into our home to complete various projects that included adding a wall to close off a large closet, adding built in cabinets/drawers, a new mud room area in the garage entry with cubbies, various electrical needs all over the house, plumbing, and a huge renovation of our kitchen. It was a lot of work, but Ilan was hands on with the entire project which you don't always get with a general contractor or project manager. He and his team were very cognizant of getting projects done in a timely fashion and with the highest standards of quality. We have a list of spring projects ready to go for them. We would, without hesitation, recommend Chicago Constructions to anyone looking for a top quality and professional job done right. Thanks to Ilan and his team, we couldn't be happier!!! read more

I had been putting off for years wanting to redo my kid3 bathrooms in our home .(They are all grown and no longer living at home). As an empty nester ,we've often thought of down sizing , but felt that since those 3 baths had not been remodeled since building our home in the 80's , it felt dated if we were to put it on the market. Well.... It was the best decision to no longer put it off! Chicago Constructions was terrific.!!!I I love how beautiful all 3 bathrooms came out. They were knowledgeable, efficient and a pleasure to have them working in my home. All my fears of the mess during construction was unfounded. They were fast, neat and professional. Ilan (ownemade the whole experience so wonderful .I would definitely recommend him to anyone who is planning to do any remodeling from a small job to a big job. read more

From the first meeting you could tell they genuinely cared and wanted to do exactly what you visioned. They were extremely reliable and responsive. I had them paint my dark cabinets to white and changed my backsplash and install some floating shelves. Everything looks great and I couldn't be happier. Will definitely use them for all my future projects!! read more

After purchasing my new home, I was looking to give the master bathroom a makeover and looking to do repairs/updating in other areas of the house. I consulted with different companies when I was recommended from a friend to contact Code Violations repair. From my first consultation with Avi, I was truly happy with the whole process. Professional, reliable and offered fair pricing the whole team did a great job executing my vision. Definitely a great experience for first time home owners. read more

Ilan is really great! I did the upgrade for my two bathrooms and was really wonderful to work with! He was punctual, communicative (even shared daily progress updates so I could see how the work was coming along), mindful of cost and always gave me several options so I could pick what was best for my needs/budget/style. He's very professional and intricate tile work in particular turned out amazing!! would highly recommend! read more

We badly needed the interior of our home painted. After years of kid-driven wear and tear, it was essential. Chicago Constructions was amazing. They handled all of the material purchases, getting us a huge discount along the way. The painters were easy to schedule, got to our house on time and completed the entire job, 90% of our main floor, in one day. There was no damage, no spills and the work was immaculate. I will use them again and again for any and all home improvement work. read more
