When my husband and I purchased our home in 2024, we knew we wanted to expand the kitchen to create a larger entertaining space. We received a few estimates, but ultimately decided on Lubinski Remodeling as their price felt most fair for the scope of work. Services requested include: 1. Removal of a load-bearing wall between our kitchen and dining room 2. Replacement of closet space with a pantry, coffee bar, and space for a fridge 3. Rerouting and addition of outlets Working with Lubinski was a phenomenal experience. They were communicative, kind, and diligent. I cannot believe this project took less than 3 weeks to complete. We are truly in love with the results. Everyone who helped complete the work was very respectful of our home. They included us in every decision, but the process never felt overwhelming. I appreciated the options they offered with clear explanation for the pros/cons of each. Their payment plan was also clear and fair. They take Zelle, ACH, or check, which offers plenty of flexibility. Lubinski is a fantastic, family-owned company who provides high-quality work at a reasonable price. We'll definitely use them in the future for any home projects. We recommend you do too! read more

We had a wonderful experience with this team. we had reached out to multiple different contractors and spoken with quite a few and had a lot of trouble with finding someone that was responsive and sounded as if they understood what we were looking for and provided multiple solutions. This is exactly what this team did for us. Christian was extremely responsive anytime we reached out and would always provide photos examples and his own recommendation as well. The work they did for us was adding a new room within our existing walls as well as trim work electrical outlets and adding a door in our bathroom, and this was all done while we were away, so we were never present on site. Because we were not present on site, Christian would give us daily updates with photos before and afters, and would always be available to take a call to discuss options. The work was completed exactly how we wanted it, professionally, respectful to our home, and a very reasonable rate. We plan to do more work on our house in the future years and we will only be using this team!! we highly recommend them to anyone looking for work to be done in their house! Thank you Christian and team for a wonderful job ! read more

I had an extremely disappointing experience with Christian Lubinski as a general contractor. A project that was supposed to take two months ended up taking four months. We moved in with small children to find exposed electrical wires and unfinished items everywhere because the work was not completed on time, despite multiple extensions and commitments to do so. The project was a six-figure contract that went 25-30% over budget. This was not due to massive scope changes, but rather due to the unbelievable amount of nickel-and-diming. During the engagement, Christian's behavior was often unprofessional and difficult to deal with. There were constant emotional ups and downs. We never knew which Christian we would get or how he would respond to something. There were a number of times he hung up on us or yelled into the phone if we caught him on a bad day. On multiple occasions, Christian threatened to pull his workers off the job of the job saying he didn't need it. We felt like we had to walk on eggshells around him. I was operating under a tight deadline (balancing the sale of a house and delivery of a baby) or I would have fired them, but timing did not allow me to swap out contractors. Christian knew the situation I was in and took advantage of it. Once Christian pulled his crew off the job and had a complete meltdown, to the point where I felt like things might physically escalate between us while I was holding my newborn. After that, we asked him never to come back and only to send his workers to finish the job (this was post move-in during the touch-up phase). He apologized afterward and blamed stress. This emotional instability and lack of professionalism added a huge level of complexity to our project. I would strongly caution anyone considering hiring Christian Lubinski for their contracting needs to get a number of recent references that you can call. You can also reach out to me. In addition, and I cannot stress this enough, get every little detail, every inch of work, every screw, every door handle, in writing. The nickel-and-diming is something I have never experienced before. For example, we did a six-figure project, including a full kitchen remodel, and he left the original yellow paint-covered 25-year-old power outlets in the new white backsplash and wanted to charge us per outlet to replace each one. There are dozens of examples like this, and they never end. I was more than reasonable with Christian. I always took the time to try to connect with him, explain my point of view while understanding his, and was very disappointed. I expected to be over budget, I expected to be a bit behind schedule, but to blow the budget by tens of thousands, double the estimated time frame, constantly overcommit and underdeliver, and most importantly, have such poor professional and interpersonal communication is unacceptable. Finally, the craftsmanship is mediocre at best. Christian had a revolving door of junior to mid-level contractors especially towards the completion of the job when it was obvious that they wanted to move on ASAP and reallocated experienced folks to other jobs. When we met initially, he told us that he has a full-time crew that he operates, and he introduced us to them. That may be the case, but that is not who will be at your house on a daily basis. Those folks get shuffled around to their most important/profitable jobs that they are trying to win. We've been in this house for less than two years, we had a toilet leak (wasn't properly installed), there is a lot of cracking (drywall, grout etc), we had leaks on the first floor from grout that was placed less than two years ago. Most vanities have a water stain from U-traps that were not properly installed and leaked. Some plumbing finishes were not installed properly, etc. I have attached a few pictures as examples. There are also a number of warped/uneven drywall installations on new walls that they built. Again, be careful. read more

We're glad we hired the Lubinski team to complete a basement remodel of our 100 year home including framing, drywall, plastering, and skim coating of a stairway.

Mr. Lubinski and his team are our life saver. I will never forget when I called him to ask for his assistance when we got scammed by our first contractor. I broke down in tears and he took his time to listen with compassion. I told him our dilemma and he said, "I'm not sure if we can do it with your budget but I will do my best to help you, don't worry." His office is very diligent with follow ups and updates; schedules and coordinates everything that is needed. He answers all our questions as soon as he can and as truthful as it can be. He comes to the project as much as he can and makes sure everything is done right This is our first remodeling/ room addition project and he never took advantage of us. He adjusted and accommodated our requests during the job; explains if it is proper or not. He guided us through and through. Our whole family loves his crew; seeing them was my senior citizen parents' highlight of the day. We are forever in debt to Mr. Christian Lubinski and his team. Everyone loves our new room addition, especially our toddler who spends all her day there, and can't wait to make memories in it. Thank you again Lubinski Remodeling. read more

Christian, Tom, and the rest of the Lubinksi team did a great job remodeling our basement, completed May 2022. It was a small space and a complicated job including electrical, HVAC, windows/doors, foundation work, and framing/drywall/finishing. We are very pleased with the final product, a playroom for our children. The space transitioned from a dark poorly finished space to a well-lit and comfortable playroom. A few highlights I experienced working with Christian and the team: 1. Problem solving - willingness to problem solve and present options, including doing so timely 2. Commitment to "getting it right" - making sure that the focus remains a high quality end-product 3. Cleanliness - the worksite was kept neat throughout the project 4. Timing - the team worked consistently to complete the job within the original planned timeframe in our contract, even after we asked for additional items not included in the original scope 5. Fairness - if an issue came up, Christian and I addressed and came to a fair solution, either sharing the cost, or Christian covering completely. We would recommend Lubinski to others and we will consider them for any future projects of our own. read more

How can Lubinski remodeling improve? Had a fence put in. First contact was in April. Contract signed April 22. I was told 7-10 days at most to begin work from the time the contract was signed. Job completed June 4th. Field agent and owner NOT upfront on all costs (extra for piles of dirt removed from each post, extra for previous fence which is not in the exact line of new fence, extra for type (shadow box) as well as extra for shape . Completely not itemized. Make sure you go through each line. I've never done that before, but lesson learned. They should try working with customers instead of arguing and threatening to leave the job. Stated they are 'busy', 'out of the office', on 'vacation' etc. and we can go elsewhere if we wanted as the first check hasn't been deposited yet. Threatened to take staff off the job the day of the job. Why advertise and take the job if you didn't want it? Maybe they should also consider making a rule to NOT have employees sleep in their cars in front of clients homes? Woke up our field manager (aka: salesman -true in every stereotype of the word) twice on two separate occasions. Work itself was done well, although work was not done by owner (never saw him once) or "field manager" who sleeps in his car while work is being done /inspectors arrival 10 feet away from him. Embarrassing. Although he was awake enough for three days straight after the job to ring my doorbell incessantly as well as enter my backyard, approach my sliding glass doors without notice to collect a check. Very unsettling. read more

World class! We've used them for several projects from condo's downtown to our home out in the suburbs. The team has a keen eye for detail, and an incredible work ethic. They moved mountains to stay on schedule for a couple of immovable deadlines (i.e., child's birth, engagement parties). He's "our guy" in Chicago. read more

I hired Lubinski Remodeling to rebuild my basement destroyed by water damage.

Lubinski Remodeling offered a competitive price that assured lowest out of pocket pricing. Their attention to detail far exceeded all of our expectations.

Most would probably agree when I say, painting is not easy. My fiancé and I painted our living room on our own, and we had to give up before starting the other rooms..! Lubinski Remodeling was recommended to us. I have to say this, Christian and his team were incredible. Christian gave us a 3 day time frame for the completion. The time given seemed a little impossible for me given that, it took us a week to do only the living room, where as, they were going to paint the whole house. They started Thursday, and completed on Saturday. I walked into the house around 6:30 pm Saturday. The job was to perfection, colors were beautiful and spotless, they had cleaned up so well. I was amazed! Not only was the job outstanding, but Christian went above and beyond with fixing, patching cracks, adding some trim work to the kitchen and replacing our wall paper. The service was exceptional, beyond what we expected. We highly recommend this team. I am certain that I I'll choose Lubinski Remodeling for all my future home renovations. read more

I wasn't going to write a review until I saw Mike W.'s review was the only one. These guys did some work at my place and I thought they were very professional. They took their shoes off when they came in they acted very quickly and got right to work. I had to leave the house before they were done and they promised they would clean up when they were done. It was actually cleaner than before they got there. read more

Do not use this company!! I warn you early!! They quoted me a price, agreed to it and then subsequently (on the day of painting) indicated they never agreed to it. Very shaddy company....they then tried to add on additional prices the day of. The management of the company does not put a customer first!!! Extremely rude and inappropriate management!!! read more
