Our driveway is cracking and falling apart just a few years after it was put in. Had another company come to inspect and mentioned how poorly packed our driveway was done and it was also done super sloppy. read more

We needed a repair for our chimney. Green World Construction was working on a home in our neighborhood, so we stopped and asked if they could take a look at our problem. They did and gave us an estimate of cost to repair the chimney and said they could do the job the same day. They did exactly that. The work was completed quickly and professionally. Workers were knowledgeable and pleasant. We were quite pleased with the outcome. read more

Green World Construction was great! They redid our garage roof. Their pricing was competitive, and the workers were respectful. Wayne was friendly, helpful, and communicative throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend Green World Construction! read more

Wayne was a very personable man and comfortable to work with. He covered all the details and kept me posted throughout the whole process of working on my roof. Highly competitive pricing and great service, great value. Would highly recommend this company read more

Another update to my review. Here is the concrete portion after one winter. A result that was a concern of mine from the initial onset. I asked if Wayne and his team would break away old concrete because I knew if I had just patched it myself that it would eventually end up looking like this. Wayne shared that it wasn't necessary and that they could coat it with a sealant to help prevent. They did, twice, after it started cracking after the first attempt. It's already starting to look like it was before I decided to work with GWC. read more

We hired Green World to do some tuck pointing spot repair work as well as replace some of the glass blocks in several units of our condo building. The mortar between the glass blocks were never sealed in any of the units (despite all the blocks around them being sealed and it being stated they will do so in the contract). When you shower the mortar crumbles and it even crumbles to the touch. The work done to the front and roof of the building is also not sufficient, they misidentified Renaissance stone as limestone and they left materials including an open box cutter on our soft TPO roof and I witnessed a worker spreading caulk on our coping with his fingers (??). At this point we don't want them back to see through the warranty on the work; and getting a response and getting them to show up when they say they will is absolutely part time job as it is. read more

Last weekend I noticed a slight leak in my roof, so I immediately took to Yelp to find a roofer and address the issue before it got worse. Of the 10 companies I contacted for estimates, Green World was one of the few that got back to me quickly and scheduled a visit within a few days. We decided on Green World after receiving a few estimates, I appreciated Wayne explaining the fix and how it compared to other potential methods to approaching the problem. 5 stars for the communication, price, warranty, and work done. read more

Wayne came back today (8/24/2020) to fix the crack in the step to honor his 2-year warranty. His work looks satisfactory so far. I will have to wait several days to see how it looks after it cures before I decide that it is satisfactory. read more

Wayne gave me a very reasonable price for tuckpointing my whole garage inside and out, as it was in really bad shape and needed extensive brick replacements and repairs. He knew I was on a time crunch too since we were about to be heading out of town for 2 weeks and so close to the end of the tuckpointing season. Wayne hooked me up big time! He showed up not only on time, but a day early to get started, he got right to work with great quality of work and attention to detail, he communicated very well explaining the plan and his progress every step, and he stayed right within the target time frame inspite of a few rainy days in the middle. The end result was impeccable and exceeded all expectations! Before he started working on my garage, I wasn't sure if it would make it through another Chicago winter, now it's sturdy like a castle. I will definitely be working with Wayne again next Spring to tackle the rest of my building. Thank You for great quality work Wayne!!! read more

I had several estimates and ultimately went with Green World after a neighbor recommended this company. Wayne was extremely patient in answering all of my questions when I was comparing the different estimates. He spent the time to explain the different shingles and the process of the roof replacement. We were, also, replacing some vinyl siding along with the roof. All the materials were delivered on Friday and work was scheduled to begin on Sunday. I had second thoughts about the color of the siding 7pm on the day of delivery and texted Wayne asking if it was too late to change the color. He called me back immediately and said he would swing by the morning to lay the siding against the wall so that I can decide if it would work or not. Wayne was extremely patient with the whole process. On the day of the job, his crew showed up exactly on the hour they said they would. They worked efficiently the entire time they were here. I saw his crew put up the siding and it was done with great care and precision. Wayne regularly went up on the roof throughout the day and gave me updated pictures during the whole process. The crew did an excellent job cleaning up the entire area after they were done. A great crew and a great leader. I strongly recommend Green World. read more

After they finished the roofing job, we hired them to knock down a brick wall running from the house to the garage. I shouldn't have paid in full the day that they came out because they never finished the job and we had to keep calling over weeks and weeks to get them to come back and at least move some of the bricks out of the way. Even worse, the work that they did on the roof turned out to be absolutely terrible. The original job we hired Green World Construction and Roofing to do was to permanently seal the roof membrane after we had had the parapet wall rebuilt the previous fall. The masons who had done that work did a fantastic job and laid down temporary plastic sheeting to keep everything dry over the winter. Everything was fine and we had no leaks even during the worst storms during the spring. Then Wayne came out in late May to "seal" the roof membrane and remove a wood walkway from the roof... fast forward about a month later to water gushing all the way down to the basement along the INSIDE of our brick walls. I don't think they used any flashing or anything to seal the membrane to anything under the coping. After about a month I could fit my entire hand between the roof membrane and the parapet bricks in some areas. In one place where they did use a termination bar, it wasn't caulked. When we had originally discussed the job, Wayne had mentioned that you usually place the coping blocks at the end, over flashing... it was obviously pretty dumb of me to assume that he would come up with an alternative or just maybe temporarily remove the coping blocks, put down flashing, then replace the blocks? I mean, this company does say that they also do masonry work... I don't know what I expected, but definitely not worse water damage after replacing a TEMPORARY PLASTIC SHEET. I do understand that mistakes happen,sometimes life can be crazy and messy and hard and that sucks. That said, we've been trying to chase him down to fix this for months now. After weeks of calling and texting, he came out to slap on a "temporary patch" out of some tape and a few splashes of tar until he could come out to complete the repair the following week. He never showed up and the "patch" washed away in the first rain... Luckily, the masons who did the original work are back doing tuck-pointing on another part of the house and they offered to temporarily remove the coping blocks for a real roofer who is actually going to seal the roof membrane. If you need someone to remove stuff (partially... eventually) hire Wayne. read more

My kids paid to have my front cement stairs resurfaced for my birthday. The work was slow and sloppy! The original work the steps were so uneven and lumpy that there were pools of water on the stairs! He came back and allegedly blamed the stairs for being old. He allegedly resurfaced and sealed the stairs. But less than 5 months later the stairs have cracked and crumbled. My kids were trying to do something nice for me and they just threw over $1000 away! Never get cheated by this company!! I am going to have to pay a legitimate contractor to repair this mess! read more

I had some wind damage to my siding. I called Green World based on some reviews I read and left a message. Wayne got back to me quickly and was able to come out and inspect the damage and offer a plan/quote the next day. Wayne is an agreeable guy so I decided let's get this repaired as soon as possible. That wasn't able to happen till after a few days but it's nothing to do with their service, but the nature of the work to be done, and the cold blast we had in January. The crew came and did their work while I was away at work and Wayne sent me pics when they were done. I was happy with the service and being informed along the way. I would use them again to replace my siding in the future. Pics related to my project. read more

My fiance was the one to coordinate with Wayne, but with such a rainy spring/summer, Wayne was very responsive and able to come do the job in a timely manner. He was very reasonable and easy to work with. We did have to have him come back out since we found out that our leak was due to a different cause, but since then and many storms later, no leaks! As with many contractors, Wayne and Green World became super busy at times with other projects, but at the end of the day, he came through. We are relieved and happy. Thanks, Wayne! read more

We used Green World to replace a roof and have some tuck pointing work performed. At the onset I called several companies to discuss the work.

Had quite a few problems with drywall on 3 walls and 3 different ceiling sections. Imperfections and poor patching from the past made the walls and ceiling ugly. Green Wall was easy to work and gave good recommendations to improve the look of the walls and ceiling. They did a great job making the drywall smooth and matching the paint to the existing walls. All in all, made walls and ceiling very presentable. Drywall patching and painting is top notch. Made quick work of a messy job, and cleaned up their dust. My condo is now ready to be put on the market. Big thanks and recommended. read more

I had a small patch of my roof overhang to do on a very short notice. I reached out to a couple of other companies that either didn't get back to me or had a long wait for an appointment. Wayne came out on the same day of my inquiry to give an estimate of cost. There was a little bit of a premium to turn it around in such short notice, but we thought the prices were fair. He showed up a few days later and got the work done as promised. Wayne is friendly, knowledgeable and trustworthy. I would recommend his work! read more

My job was a leaking roof at a large historic church on the South side of Chicago. Green World came out immediately to give a quote, which we accepted. They came within a day, and completed the work quickly and professionally, and at a great price. They were also great about explaing exactly what the problem was, and the techniques they would use in the repair. I would highly recommend Green World, and have already referred them to other jobs.

My roof had sustained quite a bit of damage due the windy weather. It was missing so many shingles that you could see straight through to the rolled roofing material underneath. Wayne and his crew of + 1 did a great job in just one day. Not only did they work 10 hours straight in order to get the job done, they found shingles that perfectly matched the existing ones on the roof. Wayne had done some work for a neighbor across the street from me and had done an excellent job on her roof as well. All in all, I was very pleased with the pricing and the quality of the work done. read more

Wanye and his team were very, very professional. He came out to give us a quote on brick replacement and tuckpointing for our chimney.
