Pizarro Construction and Home Remodeling
Builders in Island Lake, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars23 July 2013
“We hired Pizarro to repair drywall (chunks of paint ripped off when we removed wall paper and several cracked areas) and to upgrade our electric panel, separate circuits, and install a manual generator switch. Armando (the owner) was amazing to work with and we'd definitely hire the company again!”
HX Home Solutions and North Star Stone
Builders in Island Lake, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars25 June 2012
“We hired North Star Stone to help refinish our fireplace last month and couldn't be happier. Alan and his crew were on time, fast and ready to accommodate all of our requests. The room looks like a brand new room- we spend so much time in our living room now, whereas before we avoided going in there. The work is beautiful and has added a warmth to our home (No pun intended!). We are looking forward to winter sitting by our new fireplace! We would definitely recommend North Star Stone to any of our friends and family.”

Builder FAQs
There are several reasons why you should hire a local builder in Island Lake:
  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.
