Featured Reviews for Builders in Elgin, IL

Synergy Builders Inc.
Builders in Elgin, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars28 October 2012
“Synergy Builders came up with a great design idea for our kitchen. We had a challenging layout, and they worked for months to get things just right. They were on time and on budget with the work. The staff offered many valuable ideas and helped us see our vision become reality. The quality of the work was excellent. They have a great attention to detail and aim to please. I highly recommend Synergy Builders.”
CHR Contractors, Inc.
Builders in Elgin, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars19 June 2022
“We cannot convey through a review how GREAT working with John at CHR Contractors was. We originally found John through Angi's List while getting quotes to have a raised Trex deck built behind our house. He was responsive during the quoting process, and all through the project once we moved forward with him. We could not be happier with the work he did, and the quality we received, especially considering his price was VERY competitive. Since the original work on the deck, we have had John fully remodel our kitchen (including combining 2 separate rooms into a larger kitchen area), a full bathroom remodel down to the studs, and a new laundry room upstairs in our master bedroom. All were done at very fair pricing, quickly, and with the quality we wanted. John was particularly good about making sure if there was something that needed to be decided on, he laid out all the pros and cons for my wife and I, and let us make an educated decision on how we wanted to move forward, even when the alternative may have been more difficult and time consuming for him and his team. During the process of our remodeling, we have used John's recommendations for an electrician, a plumber, a hard wood installation/sanding/staining company, a carpet installer, and a quartz countertop installer. All came in significantly less expensive than the quotes I was able to get on my own, and all did quality work. There are plenty of contractors around, but few are decent, and even fewer I would call "good". John is a GREAT one. We cannot recommend him enough. Robert & Audrey”

“I recommend Barts Remodeling for their excellent offerings and stylish designs that have appealed to everyone alike. They provided such a simple designs and classy styles that I was at a loss to understand the best design to select. Their affordable prices were like an icing on the cake and I still feel they provide the best ever renovation solutions for every budget.”
CK Construction
Builders in Elgin, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars14 October 2022
“When it comes to big home projects, I always want to be involved in the choices that are made, but can’t alway execute upon my vision with the professionalism I’d like alone. Working with CK was a breath of fresh air & the entire project was an easy and collaborative effort to achieve the kitchen I have always wanted! Our bathrooms are next!!!”
Construo Construction
Builders in Elgin, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars6 February 2023
“Jaime Villagram, owner of Construo Construction was prompt and delivered as promised at the original price we agreed on. All work was completed on time and in a professional way. That was my first time using him. The next time was in my home. The dishwasher malfunctioned and flooded the kitchen. The hardwood floors all had to be refinished or replaced. Jaime took over with the insurance adjuster and got the approval to do the job .Job three was a leaking roof on my commercial building That was also done perfectly.”
Hogan Design & Construction (HDC)
Builders in Elgin, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars9 March 2014
“I have used Hogan Design and Construction for two different projects in my home and I couldn't be happier with the results of both projects. The first project was to install a sliding glass door in an area where there was just a door and window. It was a large project that required cutting in to the wall of my house. The second project was having them completely demolish and re-do both bathrooms in my house. This was a very large project. The level of professionalism shown on both projects was outstanding. I always knew when workers were scheduled to be working in my house, I always knew what specific work was scheduled, and I always knew whether the project was on schedule or not. I've worked with other contractors and one of the biggest complaints I had with them was that there communication was spotty at best and non-existent at worst. With Hogan Design, I was never in the dark. They were up front and honest with me and most importantly, when they said they were going to do something, they did it. I've found this to be a rare quality amongst contractors. I couldn't be happier with the work completed by Hogan Design and Construction and I will definitely be using them again for any future projects that I have. When you find a good contractor, you hold on to them.”

Builder FAQs
There are several reasons why you should hire a local builder in Elgin:
  1. Local builders will be familiar with your local authorities building regulations, being able to advise on any relevant permits you need before work can begin.
  2. Builders near you will be aware of the climate of your area, and can recommend materials and construction methods suitable for your area.
  3. Building firms nearby will provide quicker responses and quotes compared to contractors outside of your local area, as they are nearby, they will often drop in to talk to you about your project and view the property.

For home builders, you will usually receive a quote for a building project instead of daily rates or hourly fees. The cost depends on various factors such as the type of job, builders experience and length of the project.

Expect to pay less for a small maintenance job such as brickwork repair or an extension of an existing wall than a new build project such as a kitchen or bathroom renovation and home extensions. After you’ve found a local builder for your project, speaking with them in detail about your project will help them give you an accurate estimate for the work required.
If you hire a home builder for a lengthy project, such as an extension, your builder may charge a daily rate. You can expect to pay around £350 per day for this. If your builder charges this way, ask for an estimation of how long this will take so you know roughly how much the total cost will be.

When looking for an Elgin building company to take on your project, you will want to know that they will be able to handle the job in good time and sticking to your agreed budget. A professional contractor will have worked on projects like yours previously and they will know exactly what to do.

Compile a shortlist of at least three builders in Elgin that can handle the full scope of works, either by themselves or through sub-contracting. It is often a good idea to play devils advocate and ask what the builder will not be responsible for. Be wary of unusually cheap quotes. Ask for references and stories about how the builder has met different challenges along the way. If you can, you could try to see previous projects and talk to previous clients, or if not, read reviews, recommendations and ratings, and look at detailed photos of projects. All of which you can find on Houzz.
