Services in Chicago
From brick row houses in Logan Square to new builds in Lincoln Park, we design and build the extra space Chicago families need.
We pour frost-protected footings, match existing masonry, and frame with engineered LVL beams so your second-story or bump-out addition feels original. Every roofline is tied in with ice-guard underlayment and custom flashing for Chicago winters. Windows, siding, and gutters are matched to the last detail for curb appeal that sells. Each job includes a free 3D walkthrough before we break ground.
Need a den or home office without moving? We cantilever foundations and install steel moment frames to open interiors without sagging floors. Spray foam insulation, low-E windows, and high-velocity HVAC create a room that feels like it was always there. We handle every permit inspection so you can move furniture in the day we hand over the keys.
Turn the garage into a rent-ready studio or build a detached garden unit to the alley. We know Chicago’s ADU ordinance inside out, from 20-foot rear setbacks to minimum ceiling heights. We run new electrical service, install separate meters, and add full fire separation so your unit passes inspection the first time. Start collecting rent faster with our turnkey ADU builds.
Knock down walls and add a 10-foot island without bouncing joists. We reroute plumbing and gas in a single day, install soft-close cabinets, and integrate built-in LED lighting under quartz counters. Every backsplash is sealed with epoxy grout for easy cleanup after deep-dish nights. Walk into a kitchen that finally fits your crew.
Dig down and pour new footings to gain eight extra feet of headroom. We install egress windows, sump pumps, and vapor-sealed walls to keep the space dry year-round. Add a wet bar, home theater, or in-law suite without sacrificing backyard space. All work is inspected to Chicago building code so your lower level counts as legal living area.
Reframe interior walls to create an open floor plan that flows from kitchen to living room. We upgrade electrical panels to 200-amp service and run new plumbing stacks for multiple baths. Structural beams are hidden in ceilings so sightlines stay clean. One crew, one timeline, one invoice for a home that finally works.
