    I would recommend Jerry to anyone that is looking to have work done in your home. He and his crewput in flooring, tiled a bathroom and laundry room, replaced my sliding glass door after finding the floor had rotted all the way through, and put all new trim around doors and floor. His work is wonderful and will let you know if something has to be changed regarding your project. He was very responsive when I was asking any questions. Went above and beyond to make sure everything turned out like I wanted. My home looks 1000 times better after the work was complete!

    These pictures don't do this justice.

    We have used Jerry in the past to help restore several floors damaged by weather events. He has always been on budget/estimate and the quality of his work is fantastic. He is genuinely "pickier" than we are in details and has raised our expectations of home improvement. This year we really needed to redo a bathroom/shower. Tear ours completely down and redo it all. We got an estimate with clear instructions of what we needed to shop for (so we would get proper colors and styles to our taste). He is busy, so he gave us a start date that was 60 days out and on that morning he showed up early with his team (family too). He also contacted prior to start to make sure we had properly got the items he instructed (tile and colors) and he also verified choices so he could purchase items like shower hardware etc. He did a FANTASTIC job, on budget and finishing on schedule. The quality and attention to detail (replaced the door hinges because they looked too worn for our new bathroom, no charge - just ONE example). Every time we use that room, it feels wonderfully new, and not just remodeled, it feels like we upgraded our home. Jerry thank you for an 11 out of 10. Will chat soon for our next project. He's the only person we consider for any work. The attached photos don't do this justice.

    After. Installation of ceiling fan, fireplace stonework, mantle and shiplap, closed off old cabinet and mounted TV

    Jerry recently completed our fireplace surround, installation of a new mantle, closing off an old TV cabinet and installation of TV mount and soundbar, and some other touchups around the fireplace (flooring). This may not seem like a lot, but he is very meticulous so that every edge is perfectly aligned without odd cuts in the stone veneer. He completed the project in 5 days as originally estimated. We have used Jerry for 3 projects in the past 3 years and he will continue to be our go-to handy man for big and small renovations in our house. We love his work, work ethic, and fact that he sees the project through from start to finish.

    As I mentioned in a previous post, I would be calling him again when I had another home project, this time an entire kitchen remodel. That's got to be the best compliment YELP readers are looking for... someone you can trust enough you will use them over and over. Jerry met with us to discuss our remodel early in 2021 so we could plan ahead, order cabinets etc, and begin June 1st. Overall, he and his team gutted the entire kitchen including removing wall tile that went to our 9ft ceiling, and took out all our main level flooring, carpet, and tile. They installed our new engineered hardwood in just a few days and then kept them covered for the duration of our remodel so they didn't get damaged. Our kitchen was a major renovation simply because we have some odd angles in our kitchen and purchased cabinets from Lakeland Building Supply that were ceiling height with crown molding. The end product looks amazing and we are so pleased with the professionalism and attention to detail of Jerry. Jerry is a delight to work with, a great communicator, pays attention, onsite everyday, and made sure we were happy with everything. We had some permit inspector difficulties due to updated Gurnee city codes, but Jerry addressed everyone of them so that we could pass inspection. Everyone who goes through a major remodel is always worried about their budget and unanticipated costs; Jerry was reasonable with all the adjustments needed and at times went out of his way to make sure the job was done right. Just one example is that during demolition, our ejector pump in the basement became unplugged because of all the banging. This resulted in a minor water seepage that he cleaned up excellently. He also installed a battery backup to that ejector pump so that if anything ever happened in the future, we wouldn't have similar issues. This is the attention to detail everyone needs.

    Jerry is awesome. He's asked him to do a basement remodel at a lake house. We gave him our high-altitude vision and his mind just started to fill in the specifics. He's super creative - in coming up with ways to accomplish what we want, in making things better than we would have come up with on our own, and in solving the inevitable issues and surprises that come with a job like this (none of which were of Jerry's making - but every home has it's unexpected quirks). Jerry knows his stuff. He has an eye for detail. He goes beyond what his clients ask. Couldn't recommend more strongly.

    Jerry and his team installed new luxury vinyl flooring throughout my townhouse. It looks absolutely beautiful! I am very happy with the job that Jerry and his installers did! He answered all of my questions, gave me an accurate estimate, paid attention to details, guided me through the selection of flooring and kept me updated throughout the whole process. His installers were polite, cleaned up everywhere and did a fantastic job! I would highly recommend Jerry (he also did some work at my daughter's place that she was very happy with) and will definitely use him for any future work that I need done!

    We had Terry remodel our 1940s bathroom - electrical, plumbing, tile, tub, painting, toilet, sink,…read morelighting, cabinet, exhaust fan, grab bars, counter, plaster repair - the works! It's now been about 4 months since he finished the work and each day I look at our new bathroom and think "wow!' He did a great job! He was patient and always responsive to any questions or issues, and cleaned up each day. Great workmanship too. He started out by measuring and answering any questions we had, offering ideas here and there but letting us make our own decisions. Unlike some other contractors, he did not give fancy 3D architectural renderings, nor did he accompany us to each supplier to pick out products. Here's what his process was, which was perfect for us. We received a proposal contract which listed each item or task, along with a cost allowance for each item. If we chose something more expensive than its allowance, the final price would reflect the increase. If what we chose cost less than the allowance, the final cost would go down by that much. So we had a bottom line price from the start and would have the final decision on expenses. He then also gave us a list of his suggested suppliers from which to pick out all of the products. We worked with those suppliers to make selections at their respective showrooms (they work with TLC regularly), and they forwarded our selections to Terry. A few selections we made were from suppliers not on his list, which was fine, but the places he suggested were where most of the items came from. When all selections were made, he provided us with a revised proposal contract reflecting our selections and revised costs. Then he - not us - did the ordering from each vendor to insure that all of the parts and pieces fit together and would work, plus that way his contractor discount was applied. His final contract to us was transparent and showed all prices. No additional markups, no change order fees, no nonsense. If someone wants computer-generated architectural renderings, having him present at each supplier meeting, one central showroom where every needed product and samples are all in one place, then this type of contractor isn't likely for you. If however, you want a remodeling contractor that not only provides the quote but also does the actual work himself, with reliable suppliers that work with him, with a fair price and a minimal amount of stress (if that's possible lol), then TLC's a good choice. Would we recommend TLC Contracting? If you haven't it already guessed: the answer is absolutely!

    Nate is always super communicative, shows upwith lots of integrity, and very helpful!!read more
