Our designers Rob Ostap and Warren Salihar were very helpful and decisive in their recommendations for our new kitchen layout. Rob had also dealt with my appliance company Novak and Parker with all the high end custom appliances, and gave guidance as to which appliances worked well in the inset applications as well as paneled applications. The finished product truly speaks for itself, and we are looking at potentially being featured on Houzz. Thank you for all your help and guidance through the design and build process. We are incredibly grateful to you and your team and look forward to future projects together.

We hired JCC for cabinets for a master bath remodel project, after shopping many cabinet…read moremanufacturers first. We had almost ordered from a supplier selling Bertch, then my mother informed me that JCC made her cabinets (in 1980) for the house I grew up in. Although my mom doesn't live in that house anymore, a friend of mine does. While those cabinets are dated in their look from 1980 vs. today, they still look beautiful and have held up nicely. I started working with Warren, and it was a great experience. He had many ideas on how to maximize storage space. The finish and wood species choices were plentiful. Our project was significantly smaller than what Warren and JCC are used to and capable of handling, I always felt like an important and valued customer for them. We had an issue with our contractor who did a disappearing act on us, after our cabinets were ordered. JCC was helpful in recommending an a contractor who worked out wonderfully. So good that we ended up remodeling part of our kitchen (with JCC cabinets of course) and also we purchased closet organizers for our master closet. I wish every dealing with a remodeling experience went this well. :)

I recently purchased a condo that needed some remodeling and I decided to start with the floors…read more Replacing the old ugly carpeting with new vinyl flooring was a priority. The first place I went was to one of the major home improvement retail stores but I didn't get the help that I was looking for and there always seemed to be an issue. I decided to try a smaller local company that specialized in flooring and has been around for a long time but there were issues with them too. At this point, I started to get a little frustrated but I needed floors so I decided to try Total Flooring in Homer Glen. As soon as I walked in, I was immediately greeted by one of their employees. He introduced himself and told me his name was John and that he'd be more than happy to help me out with whatever I needed. I began by explaining what I was looking for and trying to do as well as the issues I had dealing with the other companies. John listened to everything I said and then reassured me that he'd be able to help me out and guaranteed me that I'd be happy with the outcome. John began helping me from that first day and stayed in constant communication throughout the entire process. On the day of installation, John was also able to find the time and stopped by while on his way to work just to make sure everything was going as planned. After all the issues I had with the other companies it was finally my turn to have an issue. The prior night I ran into a situation that caused me to fall behind with several things that I needed to do prior to the install. John and the supervisor of the install crew quickly came up with several options and within a matter of minutes there was a new plan and the installation was back on track. The install crew took over and was amazing. Juan was the supervisor and Carlos and Noe were his crew members. They immediately got to work and when I say work these guys worked. With the improvised changes, I was able to finish taking care of the things I needed to do in one area of the condo while the crew started their work in another area. Now I have always thought of myself as having a good work ethic and to me, I was moving at a good pace but before I knew it Juan, Carlos, and Noe were almost done with half of the condo. This crew was amazing and worked their asses off and when you work around people like that it actually makes you work harder so I kicked it into another gear and quickly finished doing what I had to do and got out of the crew's way so that they could finish. Juan, Carlos, and Noe far exceeded my expectations and when the installation was complete, I was totally satisfied with how everything looked. John of course reached out to me like he had done during the entire process and made sure that I was happy with how everything turned out. I definitely was and I could honestly say that choosing Total Flooring was the right choice and that John, Juan, Carlos, and Noe definitely made the difference. I fully recommend them and the Total Flooring team to anyone looking for new floors. They were all awesome to work with...

I have lived in a small home in Mt. Greenwood for 12 years. Finally able to update this…read morefixer-upper, I took my remodeling ideas to three widely used local contractors for pricing. Resil Home Improvements was the best priced and came with good recommendations. I took a chance on them and couldn't be happier. They did what they said they were going to do, when they said they were going to do it. They were professional and cleaned up after themselves after each day. Living through construction is hard so this is important. They offered financing options which I needed. They have a show room on 111th and Kedzie making it convenient for me to see samples. Pinterest was also wonderful for paint ideas and other details. My whole first floor was updated and is absolutely beautiful. I look forward to working with them next year when I tackle the outside. I feel obliged to share this wonderful outcome with you. If you have any type of home-improvement coming up, I strongly recommend you get three prices and include Resil in the bidding. They will not let you down. Thanks to my construction team Dave, Mike, Patrick, and Bartek. I'm so happy!

Tried and Tested... Resil Home Improvements Is the Real…read moreDeal! This review does not greet you during the honeymoon phase of a beautiful home renovation. In fact, the Resil Team completed a full reconfiguration of our kitchen just ahead of Thanksgiving 2023. My wife and I set out to inventory local contractors for multiple home Improvements. Spring of 2023, we attended the Oak Lawn Home and Garden Show to speak with professionals in the industry. The team over at Resil were one of many vendors present for home and/or property construction. We left the event with a host of companies to choose from. We learned very quickly that contractors lose enthusiasm and interest when you actually do your homework prior to a major project. We chose Resil. The owner Mike, and his team were clear experts of this industry. We decided to start with the kitchen instead of our three bathrooms. From start to finish, the entire Resil Crew maintained a professionalism that was greatly appreciated. They arrived as scheduled and worked in rotation according to their particular craft and expertise. In closing, One Year Later, our reconfigured kitchen has hosted 2023 and 2024, Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners; and it's still beautiful and functional! We gained a ton of storage space, our college and high school kids have enjoyed entertaining friends, but most importantly, my wife still raves about how our kitchen allows her to face our family and guest when preparing meals! We've shared Resil Home Improvements with neighbors and friends because their carpentry reflects their character. We're planning our next projects with Resil!

Brian was different, and we are so glad we found him. He came out to measure, walked us through our options, and gave us a very fair quote. He wasn't pushy and made sure we knew what was going on at all times. He was also very easy to communicate with, worked around our weird schedules, and made sure we were happy with the final product. The process was so easy and he kept a clean job site. I hope we can find another project to work with Brian and his team in the future, it's hard to find companies today with this level of competence and attention to detail

Dan Maka came by due to a request for some interior remodeling work. It included removing a window…read moreand door in a room and related exterior stairs. While here, he pointed out that they could do repairs on cedar siding, including painting the siding. Rough estimate while onsite was $10 to $12K for the exterior work. A few weeks later I got an estimate typed into an email for ~$12K. There were some inaccuracies in the work he wrote up, including no mention at all of removing one staircase and rebuilding a 2nd exterior staircase. How does something like this get overlooked? I wrote back with some questions, such as does the price include the work on the stairs, what is the warranty for the work, estimated timeframe for completion and questions about the painting subcontractor he plans to use. These are reasonable questions and there are a lot of poor quality, sloppy painters out there, so he should be comfortable answering them. Dan has since disappeared. Since then I talked with siding contractors who told me it's not a good idea to try and replace random cedar siding boards that are warped and brittle. This is because boards adjacent to them can get cracked in the process. Dan talks about having been in the construction industry for 30 years. He told me his background is actually as a plumbing He shouldn't have bothered to come over in the first place if he and doesn't have the knowledge about the work he wants to propose. I think Maka is more about doing Kitchens and Baths remodeling. That's different than doing repairs that relate to a home's construction. And it's interesting that he disappeared when I asked him about warranty and subcontractor information. For all I know, the subcontractor could have bad reviews. But he didn't even give me their name. And why doesn't Dan want to warranty his work? Another thing to be aware of is when first calling Maka, Brian, who works in the office, told me for $199 they'll do computerized design of the project, basically something similar to blueprints. He said you can have that even if you don't hire them to do the work. I brought this up to Dan when he first came over and he said "the $199 is my fee for coming over, I wasn't getting paid before I started charging that." So, two different stories on the $199. So, Dan got paid $199 for coming over and disappearing without providing a thorough estimate. I feel ripped off. Consider Smardbuild.
