Clear Oak Construction does really top-notch, dependable work. Mike strikes me as someone very…read moreknowledgeable and experienced in all carpentry-related matters, as well as other aspects of construction. He is also good at solving problems and great at communicating, including responding quickly, having the patience to answer lots of questions, and can explain things in a way that someone (like myself) who knows nothing about carpentry and construction can understand. Clear Oak Construction designed and installed an access hatch to allow me to access the attic in my garage. They also repaired the molding and metal trim surrounding my garage door, which had been severely damaged from a run-in with my car. When I first contacted Clear Oak, Mike responded quickly and made time right away to come out and give me an estimate. He bid out the work at a very reasonable rate and his crew got the job done right the first time around. I will definitely use Clear Oak Construction again next time I need a skilled carpenter, or have a renovation or construction project.

Over the past year I have had Mike at Clear Oak work a number of important jobs at my place of…read morebusiness. Firstly he and his team built out a clean room where we now manufacture our products, which are distributed around the country. I really was not quite sure exactly what materials should be used for the project, but Mike made some suggestions, both in terms of materials and layout, that made a lot of sense. After that project was finished we had Mike build out our storefront. Again he made some great suggestions as to lay out, things I had not thought of, and the storefront turned out better than I had imagined it. About six months later when we took over the second floor Mike finished out our offices and stock room. He also added industrial shelving in our small basement, which added a lot of extra shelf space, and even built us a small photo studio area in which to take product shots. Mike pretty much took our spaces from shells to finish. Not only did he provide excellent guidance through the whole process, he was easy to work with and unlike a lot of contractors actually showed up for work each day. Over the past couple months, after having finished the second floor, we had Mike come back and expand our clean room to over double its original size. The newly expanded clean room came out simply great and has added a lot of productivity to the operation. I highly recommend Mike and Clear Oak for your construction project needs. Mike takes time to understand his customers' needs and when the scope of work changes, as it did several times for us, he adjusts accordingly and gets the job done in a timely and quality way. We probably incorporated more of his suggestions than we ever would have thought of ourselves -- and that made a huge difference to our finished product. Mike understood that we were experiencing a tremendous amount of growth, and helped us most effectively plan our build-outs with that in mind. I could not be happier with our new headquarters.

BEWARE OF THE BAIT & SWITCH! Initially Oscar comes across friendly and seems trustworthy. However,…read morethe reality is he over-promises & under-delivers and is not responsive when he's chasing other big jobs. Also, his admin assistant/scheduler (his wife) is very unprofessional and his helper is sloppy (and barely speaks English). Oscar wasn't licensed in Chicago or Illinois until complaints were filed with City of Chicago - Business Affairs and Consumer Protection (BACP). Any cost savings are not worth the hassle of dealing with an unreliable contractor. Also, it's not a good sign that they change their company name to escape litigation and to hide from negative customer reviews. They've had 3 company name changes: 1. Ramirez Painting & Construction 2. Ramirez Construction 3. O.R.Z. Construction

We did some footwork and scheduled three contractors to see what it would cost. From the beginning, R.A. James was our first choice. First of all, they were on time. This may seem like a minuscule thing but when you've only a few hours a day to get all your errands done, it's super important that your contractor values your time. They were straight forward and upfront while being friendly. We got our estimate within 24 hours and after receiving our other estimates, determined that we felt best about R.A. James and asked to start in about 3 weeks. He agreed that with that time frame he could get our permits approved (the city of Berwyn is the most persnickety about permits). I have to say, I was hesitant about having strangers in my home and turning my backyard and kitchen into a construction zone. As expected they were on time every day, but what really impressed me was how unobtrusive they were. Each day the project manager would ring our doorbell, greet us and let us know what they'd be doing that day, if they needed access and that was it! They also took great care to use the existing finishes on our windows so that the flow to our deck would be flawless. We wanted to add a sail shade while they were building-- "no problem." We decided to add a lamp and therefore needed an electrical outlet--"sure." Our fire table is 200lbs -- "let us help you with that." They were courteous and even more than that--fast. It took 1.5 weeks start to finish and that included Berwyn coming out to check the depth of our posts, 2 rain days, and both the electrician and the stone mason to reconstruct our brick. It was so painless, the price was competitive and the finished product was flawless, I couldn't be happier and would recommend using them for any project you might have in mind.

I was thinking of doing some remodeling (taking down a few walls to expand living area, converting walk-in to a reach-in) but was having doubts about the cost/benefit analysis. Al came over to do a cost estimate, and voiced some of the concerns about the project that I'd already been having (in terms of resale value) - without any regard to the fact that he was kind of talking himself out of a job! I was impressed with his experience and knowledge, and felt very confident that he was thinking about the job with the client's best interests in mind. He's also a very professional and personable guy, and I would recommend people looking for a contractor to get in touch with him.
