    a kitchen with a black counter top

    I've worked with Victor on multiple projects including a full kitchen remodel, repair and remodel after a pipe burst in our basement, and miscellaneous upgrades in our home (paint, lighting, stair runners, etc.). I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a contractor in the Chicago area. His knowledge and professionalism impressed me from our first meeting for a quote. He provides detailed estimates, transparent communication, and realistic timelines. His communication is amazing, and his team is extremely reliable. We never questioned the status or timeline which was very important as we were living in the home throughout each project. His team is also lovely - great at what they do plus super friendly and respectful of our home and belongings. All of this is just a bonus on top of the impressive work! Every project he has done for us turned out even better than expected. I was super particular with finish details such as tile layout, hardware placement, etc. and everything was completed with extreme attention to detail. We will absolutely use him for any and all projects in the future and cannot recommend enough!

    Removed a small wall to open up the stairwell and made it look like new!  The dog approves!

    A friend recommended Orvick after a full gut bathroom remodel they did and I had them come and do a variety of updates to my 20 year old Home. They can handle drywall, electrical, plumbing, painting and carpentry work. In addition to the quality workmanship, they communicate well and set reasonable expectations about the work. They show up on time and clean up each day to help minimize the mess that comes with all construction projects. I had them replace my kitchen sink and faucet, install undermount cabinet lighting, can lights, replace pennants in my kitchen. They replaced two bathroom vanities and light fixtures etc. I also had them recarpet my house and remove old travertine tile to replace with porcelain. They handle all of the details that go into each of those smaller projects so it comes out looking like new. I liked working with them on my interior projects so much that I'm going to have them build a pergola outside next!

    I just wrote my last check to Victor with Orvick today. This was our family's first kitchen and floor remodel project and we were extremely nervous considering all of the horror stories you hear about contractors. For anyone looking for a contractor that will give you a very competitive price (we priced out 5 contractors), be responsive to your texts and calls 24 x 7 x 365, have patience while you make major decisions on appliances, colors, etc., and most importantly, fix any items that you believe "look funny" or were done wrong, Orvick is the way to go. His has a team of extremely nice and respectful people that work for him. We will be working with Orvick to do our bathrooms, bedroom and basement over the next couple years. For those who are like us, nervous about making a huge investment in a company to implement your dream project, I can confidently say Orvick is the right choice.

    Victor and his team just completed a kitchen and basement renovation at my home. Even during COVID, everything was done on time and safely. The workmanship was wonderful and Victor was always available to discuss the project and problem solve!

    Summary: Soma Tile (Lucas) is a partner through the process and his team is comprised of skilled…read moreand courteous professionals. I would not hesitate in referring them to anyone looking for bath and tile work!! Preface: Let me start this tale with some background. This project was not an exciting "Lets update our 20 year old bathroom and make it stylish and pretty". Instead the project started due to an undetected leak, the stress that comes from random water leaking in random places, and was filled with questions and concerns. Countless others "assured" me that this was a plumbing issue or just due to some neglected maintenance on a 5 year old new-install shower - and then wanted to blast holes everywhere to "find" the leak. At the same time, I did not want to rip apart a shower to then find out it might be plumbing and now a full on repair. I felt overwhelmed in making the wrong choice and doing 2 projects chasing my tail. Lucas walked me through all the typical scenarios that he has seen, leaning on the most probably is a structural fail of the shower system and then did a methodical exploration. A couple hours later and a minimal demo, he confirmed that it was in fact not plumbing related and was def. a failure of the shower system -- and walked me through what it would take. Once his team was onsite, they were focused - creating a whole "clean room" at the entry to the bathroom. 1 day demo, 1 day water-proof, 2 days tile - all while providing the proper time for dry-out and leak testing between steps. Lucas is a perfectionist, being critical on the most minor details -- which to someone that also strives for this level, but has no idea what they are looking for, was very much appreciated. Additionally, he has instilled this value in his team - that are true craftsman with their skill. Each step of the process was walked through, discussed, and made sure we understood the task, goal, and expectations. This is why I say Lucas/Soma Tile was a true partner in this project, as it wasn't a fun project -- it was an overwhelming stressful start where Soma Tile helped take some of the burden and concerns off our shoulders and work it through with their own expertise, experience, and dedication - ensuring every step was executed with precision. Soma Tile knows their craft - Lucas is a partner, his team are craftsman. Huge Thanks to Lucas, Jesus, and Miguel -- not to forget Jose who magically appeared on the last day to leave the place spotless.

    What an amazing job Lucas and his team did on my bathroom tile! To begin the project, floors,…read moresurfaces, etc. were protected from dirt and dust that can occur during tile installation. Lucas patiently reviewed design options with me and provided insightful guidance throughout the install. The attention to the smallest detail, combined with the use of a laser to ensure straight lines of tiles was impressive. No detail was overlooked! The color selection of grout was carefully coordinated with the tile. The workmanship is OUTSTANDING! The team demonstrated the same quality standards as they grouted and cleaned the tile repeatedly. Upon completion, Lucas, and his team cleaned the bathroom, and their work area. Soma tile was on time and a pleasure to work with! They truly are craftsman and take pride in their work. I would strongly recommend Lucas and his team.

We paid over $14,000 for a professional installation, but we have been left with a failing floor and an owner who uses "warranty offers" to avoid fixing his own team's gross negligence. 1- The "Standard Procedure" Trap The owner, Brian, will claim he is "ready to resolve" the issue, but don't be fooled. His "remediation plan" is a cheap "spot repair" that ignores the systemic subfloor failure documented by an independent inspector. The inspection report--which the owner himself initiated--confirmed the subfloor is outside of manufacturer flatness tolerances and should have been leveled before a single plank was laid. Instead of honoring the contract, Brian is trying to force a "patch job" that is technically impossible for a click-lock floating floor without compromising the locking mechanisms of the surrounding area. 2-The "Extra-Cushiony" Gaslighting When the floor first began moving and crackling, the owner and his Project Manager, Chuck, didn't even bring a straight-edge to measure the floor. Instead, Brian actually wrote us a letter claiming the structural instability was a "feature," calling it an "extra-cushiony step." It was only after we refused to accept this gaslighting and an independent inspector proved the failure that he finally admitted the floor was out of tolerance. 3- Why "Access" is the New Excuse The owner claims he is being denied access. This is a blatant attempt to flip the narrative. We have welcomed a wall-to-wall assessment to ensure the floor finally meets the 1/8-inch manufacturer requirement we paid for. The owner has refused this. He only wants access to perform "localized" patches that would leave our $14,000 investment non-compliant and likely void our long-term warranty. 4- Unprofessional Negligence: * Technical Failure: The crew installed the planks tight against all four walls with zero expansion space. * Zero Preparation: Subcontractors arrived with no knowledge of the scope of work and didn't even know a vapor barrier was required (even though we paid for it). * Scheduling Over Quality: They attempted to install over a wet slab only 24 hours after abatement. ***Final Verdict:*** FCI Chicago North Side skips the most important steps (leveling and moisture protection), tries to talk you out of noticed defects, and then offers "minimal repairs" once they are caught by an inspector. They prioritize their profit margins over industry standards and contractual honesty. If you want a floor that actually lasts, do not trust this company.

After reviewing the scope of the project, it was estimated that it would take a week and a half to complete. Not only did it take over a month to eventually complete, the days that the team would work were unpredictable. On several occasions, as the team would leave for the day, they would tell us they will be back tomorrow, and then not show up. Or, they wouldn't be able to tell us when they would come next, and would surprise us a few days later. They ended up needing to complete this project after I had delivered my baby (original timeline would've been completed weeks prior to my due date). Additionally, we noticed there were a few design decisions that were made without consulting us, like the drywall of the shower/re-installation of the water gauge (it's now not flush with the wall and very loose) and the selection of tile at the base of the shower that doesn't match the floor. He had offered to come fix the water gauge, but after coming to look at the issue, he has not gotten back to us in 5 weeks. I had high hopes for this project, and while it still looks nice, the lack of communication made it really difficult to want to recommend Peter or use his team again for future projects.
