AGNO did a fantastic job on my vintage condo, which needed a lot of work. It was six rooms,…read moreseveral of which had wallpaper covering cracks and damage. After the paper was down, Gianni and his crew patched, skim coated and repainted the walls and ceilings, scraped and repainted the metal baseboard heating covers and did the window and door casings. They also stripped and refinished a pair of ornate decorative columns in the living room, which turned out to be oak. They were totally reliable, coming when they said they would, following the condo's rules and cleaning up at the end of the day. Gina, AGNO's manager, was wonderful to work with. And the price for the job, which took most of four weeks, was totally reasonable. The apartment went from a diamond in the rough to beautiful. I feel lucky I found them.

Fortune was the more economical (vs an architect) but still historically-minded option when we…read moreneeded to restore our 140-year-old home's facade. Still a significant investment (!), but worth every cent. The team was extremely professional start to finish, from the communication with the scheduler/office staff to the artisans actually doing the work/painting. They left the work site spotless every single day, which we extra appreciated after having the opposite experience with another contractor who did the interior reno. The before and after photo speaks for itself-- our home is stunning and we are grateful for the team for their attentive, painstaking work. It was covered in aluminum siding from the 1960s when we got it, wood rotting beneath, and now the original materials (cedar shingles), in the original configuration wow once again.

I called Fortune because, after working in Wilmette for years, I've seen the incredible prep work they do on huge jobs. Prep is EVERYTHING! Pete Fortune came out to look, was very nice, knowledgeable and didn't blow off my (compared to their work I've seen) small job. I had other quotes and theirs was the top but not out of line. Ended up looping in their construction team to fix the garage doors and jambs and they are top-notch! Everything is finished, work is BEAUTIFUL, the crew was a joy and Pete is a mensch! FYI, the 4 year warranty on work, fact that they pay their guys fairly and their workman's comp insurance add serious value for a homeowner. Will be calling Pete about tuck pointing next year.

I hired A Clean Look to paint my 2-bedroom condo before placing it on the market. Steve was able to make an appointment for estimate within a couple of days, and start soon after. The entire job - including a lot of patching, and a 2-story hallway - was complete in less than a week (and there was a holiday weekend in there!) They were also able to hang two large oak bi-fold doors - very convenient for me. I look forward to working with A Clean Look in my new home. I highly recommend them!

Steve takes the time to walk through the plan for a project in detail and answer questions so you know what to expect at the end. Highly recommended. I will definitely work with Steve and his team again in the future.

With this visual comparison, the improvement is nothing less than remarkable. A special thank you needs to be addressed to Jesús and the whole crew at The Stripp Joynt.
