Our newly constructed garage needed shelving and storage. My husband and I called MEGA because they had remodeled one of our bathrooms years ago. We knew that MEGA would come through on time, skillfully and courteously. Every step of the way was ON TIME and done professionally. The first rep came out and helped us to think of a design as he measured and suggested ideas. The engineer came out and reviewed the area and made even more suggestions. We set the date, chose the materials, the carpenters arrived, the work was beautifully done. My husband LOVES his garage so much that it is beyond his dreams. EVERYTHING is in its place and easily accessible. No more piling rakes, shovels and patio umbrellas all over. We highly recommend MEGA and even called them for our next project which included electrical work and installation of many lighting fixtures and fan. You REALLY get what you pay for. MEGApros is the Best. read more

I am so pleased with my new shower -- it's unbelievably beautiful and I love it ! Each person who worked on the job was beyond meticulous, professional, and an expert at their craft. The attention to detail was amazing. The daily work progress messages, with pictures, were greatly appreciated. Working with everyone connected with Mega Pros was a totally positive experience. In the future when I need help, Mega Pros will definitely, and always, be my "go to" contractor. Betty P. Chicago read more

Called for estimates on a couple different projects and they were way over priced compared to other quotes.

I contacted Mega as I've heard their commercials with the jingle and the rave reviews from customers. After past unsatisfactory experiences with other contractors I was in dire need of the job done correctly and completely with no snags. After a few rounds of phone tag I finally secured a 2pm appointment with an estimator albeit 5-6 weeks out. I took off work that day and met the estimator. The job wasn't a big job but was more than we could handle. I basically wanted to deck two 100 sf terraces only instead of it being the floor... it was the ceiling. Picture attached. Material wasn't a concern weather it be composite decking, bead board, siding, pvc or whatever. I knew the composite would be the most expensive but anything to just cover the existing corrugated tin of the terrace above me. After about an hour of texts, photos and calls back to the office the estimator sat down and produced a quote...but he sat there for what seemed like 5 minutes explaining what it all covered and the astonishing feats of magic that would be performed to bring this project to completion as it virtually would last forever and be the greatest accomplishment of man vs construction. He then slid it across the counter to me! I was thinking $5k....$7500...I could probably talk my wife into that ....$10,000??? Then I'd have to buy her a new car to get it past her. BUT IT WAS MORE!!!! $19,763 to install 200 sf of an undetermined material. They completely wasted my time. If they didn't want the work they should not even have set up an appointment and told me so on the phone. Truly a bad experience with what's is advertised as "The Best". They are the best all right...bend over!!!! read more

I had Mega out to my home on April 2 to route a bathroom vent through the roof. I chose Mega based on their commercials and because the quote was 1/2 of what I received from another contractor. The workman was courteous and finished the job quickly. However, there are two issues preventing me from recommending Mega. First, the workman called before the scheduled time saying he would be 1/2 hour late, but ended up being an hour late. Things happen, and maybe there was unexpected traffic. Second, as he was doing the work, he found additional items needing attention, and said he would provide another quote in about two days. A week later, not hearing back, I sent a follow-up email to Mega asking for the quote. As I write this, I have yet to hear back. The follow-up work will be handled by another contractor. read more

Terrible communication - horrible scheduling. I have a major renovation I am ready to begin. They won't send someone out, you have to speak with them first over the phone - they ignore appointments. While I have heard good things about them on WGN, as I read the other reviews, I understand why others are frustrated by Mega Pros. I'll spend my money with someone who has a focus on customer service and a more reliable service. read more

We had a surprise when we removed our master bedroom carpeting to have hardwood flooring installed. As it turns out, the outside post supporting the southwest corner of the room had settled, causing an uneven sub-floor. I called Mega Pros. They came out, quickly determined what the problem was and how much it would cost to fix it. I had an estimate in hand at the end of the visit. They did their very best to fit my project into an already packed schedule and were able to fit the project in a little earlier than I had expected. Their craftsmen were highly skilled, knowledgeable, and friendly. They worked quietly and efficiently. Hardly knew they were here, say for the red Mega Pros van in the driveway. Will call Mega first for my next project read more

MegaPros Bathroom, total remodel I often heard on WGN Radio MegaPros customer experiences and they were positive reviews. When I heard the owner of MegaPros on Lou Manfredini and David Hochberg programs I thought I would get an estimate for a second-floor bathroom total gut and remodel. From day one it was a positive experience. My most important concern was my mom's (80+ yrs.) comfort. It became MegaPros professionals' first concern, too. The quote was comparable to other remodelers. I received assistance with purchases for my choice of materials (wall surrounds, faucets, toilet, mirrors, floor, ceiling air vent, etc). The most important review I can add are the following: ---Professional, Respectful, Preparation of the areas, COVID-19 protocols practiced, always ---MegaPros received and transported all materials ---Project Manager was excellent during the entire process providing a comprehensive schedule of work to be done, the date, and completion of remodel I could go on and on but the key persons I need to acknowledge Lou (project manager) and Travis (on site contractor). I also needed plumbing work and the MegaPro Service Partners were excellent in pricing and the work done. I have never been happier to have made that call to MegaPros, from the first call to the end of my project. My plan is to make MegaPros my first call on my future projects. I am a believer. I thank the MegaPros Team! read more

Called them to get an estimate to repair a plaster ceiling. They said they would have to send out some special home inspection team to look at it. Cost would be $200, non-refundable!!! What a joke. Got a handyman who specializes in plaster and drywall to do it. This company is a rip-off. They wont even come out to look at job unless they are paid. Go elsewhere. read more

Called Megapros because of their commercials to get a quote on siding my garage and replacing 4 windows, fascia and soffit. Mike called the day of our appointment (6PM) and told me he was running late...showed up 75 minutes late. No problem, I understand traffic happens. One of the issues with my 85 year old house and garage is dry rotted wood, I assumed they would remove the old wood siding and replace with sheathing...Mike said they didn't do that due to structural integrity. Since then I contacted other contractors and was told that it can and should be done, done in a way to keep the structural integrity of the building intact. I truly can't see putting vinyl siding over the deteriorating wood boards. But the main purpose of my poor review is the fact that I have not heard back from Mike at Megapros with a quote for the siding, 4 windows, fascia and soffit. It's been over a week, time to move on to plan B. read more

Mega's marketing is a far cry from reality. I had Mega quote on some stairway handrails because I broke my leg and needed rails on both sides of two flights of stairs. For two stairways, a post on the deck to cover two steps and a handrail for the two steps from my garage to the main floor of the house the QUOTE WAS $5500. I could not contain my incredulity. When my leg healed, I did all four items above FOR $250 IN MATERIALS, and the total amateur labor was about 6-8 hours. Being generous that would translate into $600-900 an hour for labor. FWIW, I would have contracted the job for $1500 to have the work professionally done at the time I really needed it. Also, this took place almost three years ago and it was still stuck in my craw. If ya don't have money to burn, stay away ..... read more

I had Mega repair a chimney and section of roof that was leaking at my Mom's home. John from Mega showed up on time, and was knowledgeable about fixing the issue at hand. Seeing how I called two other companies that no showed - Mega got the work. I believe their labor pricing was fair, especially since they offered a 15 year craftsmanship warranty (which matters a lot more than some BS manufacturer warranty). The job went smooth and took less than a day. My mother's roof/chimney no longer leaks! I appreciated that Mega supplied a typed final invoice, properly documented craftsmanship warranty, and a final waiver of lien upon the jobs completion. Overall I was very happy with Mega's work and professionalism. Personally, I would not hesitate to recommend Mega to family/friends. read more

If you want a six week job to take six months, then these are the people to call. My main concern was never addressed so while the mistakes, omissions and incompetent workers were here, I contracted out the gutters myself. All I asked for was exterior house painting, gutters and storm windows. The paint to bubbling a peeling a year later. This painter was suggested by them. You would be better off with quotes from Home Advisor or Angie's list. Katherine M read more

We had our Master Bathroom done by Mega Pros. They are the best. Start to finish. Thorough, professional, attentive and timely. These guys are like family. They are trustworthy, clean, and honest. The bathroom looks like a 5 star hotel. It took a little longer than the 10 days originally promised, but that was my fault. I changed the design last minute and made them remount the shower doors out about 2 inches for extra elbow room. Set us back another week. But, its done and gorgeous! Thank you Mega Pros....what can you remodel for me next? Bob C. Bartlett, IL read more

I was treated unprofessionally by this company. They have a receptionist named Julie who is rude and a liar. They also have a representative by the name of who wanted me to agree to pay for service work before coming out to my home. When I didn't agree this angered him and he cancelled the appointment without informing me. Julie screen calls then makes up lies and will cost this company a lot of money by loosing business. I also feel this company is prejudice as well. I was told the owner name is Joe. Per Julie no way to contact him. Hopefully he will read this review and investigate how they are running his company. read more

Jeremy came out on Saturday morning. 30 minutes late but that happens. Took enthusiastic notes and photos. I was promised email estimates on Monday(2 days) 10 days later I emailed him as well as the office. They were ignored by both . 10 days after that I called the office. She said she thought she had seen something go out. Not true. She was going to check into it and call me back.That also did not happen. I called them on good faith from their radio ads.

When we moved into our townhouse the first room we were going to remodel was the master bathroom. That was 19 years ago and thru the years the thought of finding someone to do the work was daunting. After hearing many testimonials on WGN radio we decided to at least have MegaPros come over and talk over our project. Once the estimate was done there was no pressure to make a decision. The decision was a no brainer. We could not be happier. From the first call from Julie in the office to Dakota who did the estimate (he was within a couple of hundred dollars!) to Matt and his crew for the demolition, Eric for his plumbing skills, and to Travis who went out of his way to make everything the way we wanted it. Also a huge compliment to Lou our project manager who kept us informed all along the way and making sure that all the pieces of the project arrived and installed as per the timeline that was provided to us at the start. His attention to detail and Travis' carpentry skills made for a great result. Our project was a complete gut. New walls, floor, shower, vanity, toilet and lighting. We were given a "shopping list" for everything that would be needed to complete the project. We were able to pick out exactly what we wanted and MegaPros made suggestions on what might work and where to buy them. We purchased some of the items and MegaPros did the shopping for the rest! If you need anything done in your home please don't hesitate to use MegaPros. They make everything so easy and the results are outstanding. read more

Heard about MegaPros for years on WGN. After my sister used them for a bathroom remodel and was very pleased, we called them for a repair of our soffit/fascia. The men who came out were very professional, courteous and friendly. They did more than was asked of them after removing several large wasp nests that were in the area. Very pleased with my first experience. Mike read more

I had some water damage on my bathroom ceiling and wall and needed to Replace an old medicine cabinet. I called Megapros to fix the wall, replace a bit of tile and hang a new cabinet I was extremely happy with the work. Everyone I encountered was very professional. The work was done right they were very careful and cleaned up afterwards. The work was done in a reasonable amount of time. When we couldn't find the replacement tile we needed, they went to plan B and decided to make a little shelf under the cabinet. It looks great. I couldn't be happier. read more

We needed help with several unfinished projects after a contractor abandoned our renovation. Each project was specialized -- tile on heated floor, drywall and removal and rebuilding of an entire interior staircase. MegaPros sent their team in and finished it all in 6 days and we are THRILLED with their work. John, Carlos, Lucio and Juan are such skilled people who know their jobs -- they are all a pleasure to work with. We HIGHLY recommend MegaPros for any repair or renovation. Next project: Kitchen renovation. Can't wait!! read more

First experience has been an utter disappointment. We decided to give this company a try - we have a master bathroom that is about 80% complete. It's not an impossible task - we just need some help from someone with expertise. Kristy confirmed with someone named Jeremy on Friday to come and assess the job today (Monday) at noon. My husband is self-employed and rearranged his schedule to accommodate the meeting. He only dos so after getting a call back from Kristy who said she confirmed with Jeremy. Upon her request, my husband called Jeremy to provide details about the job. After calling twice with no answer, a detailed voice message was left with a description of the work to be done. Jeremy did not return his calls over the weekend. This morning Jeremy called at 9:50am, said he looked at the submitted photos and offered a few excuses as to why he could not do the job and that he could not make the meeting. There was no effort to put us in contact with anyone else who might be able to help us. Whatever his reason, this is unprofessional and disrespectful of customer time. It also dispels any notion that MegaPros has any right to boast about pleasing customers. Those radio ads are way off the mark. read more

We just completed our first Mega interior construction job and we are thrilled. The workman (Marco) was careful and conscientious (he didn't play the radio), hardworking and polite. Don, the project manager, was patient each time we had to change the work date and overall the experience was first rate. We were so pleased we went ahead and started the wheels rolling on a new bathroom job (tile floor and new shower). My wife and I would heartily recommend Mega. read more

I'm so happy we chose MegaPros to repair/replace the siding on our house. It is an older home with wooden siding that we must paint and over the years some of the wood had begun to buckle.

If I could rate lower I would. Ridiculously overpriced and the crew itself RUDE. I would never refer this company to anyone. I didn't use them and advise everyone else to stay away.

Skokie - Called Mega on Friday 4/26/2019 for an estimate to replace my deck. Earliest they could schedule was 3 weeks Friday 5/17/2019 !!!

We took a chance and checked out Megapros since they had a long relationship with our mortgage broker when moving into a new home after our old contractor doubled the price from the estimate. We like the business model of quoting a labor and building material price, leaving the fixtures up to the customer so that you have the freedom to select the quality and pricepoint above the labor, and then don't have to pay the tacked on markup like most other remodelers. The quality of the work was excellent and their commitment to satisfaction was great, not expecting full payment until you're completely satisfied. They also made sure the work area was clean and they took precautions so that the dust etc. didnt seep into the rest of the home. We will use Megapros again for any other work we need. read more

I called them last fall for help with our deck. I didn't know whether I needed repair or replacement! I was told to email my request, which I did.....and waited. Several days later,'I called again. I was asked to send pictures. I sent them...... and waited. Finally got a text from Jeremy asking for better photos. I sent them. At no time did anyone offer to actually come to look at the deck. I live in a townhome and the deck is tiny. I finally got a text back estimating $7,000 for repair! I hired a handyman recommended by a family member and paid $400 for the repairs! Megapros are cons in my book! read more
