At that point there was no trimming of weeds around our fence and at one point they mowed my yard in back with a weed whacker rather than a mower. They later said their mower was not working. When I complained about the weeds around my arbor not being removed, they sent the crew in to destroy everything. These men pulled up everything, including my beautiful purple clematis on each side of the arbor. It broke my heart to see this beautiful vine pulled from the ground without them giving any regard to what they were doing. The workers were nasty and disrespectful towards me that day. I immediately called the owner and said I no longer wished his services at my property. Please see before and after photos. I resent having to even give a star rating.

He quite literally blew a bunch of…read moreleaves and dirt 5-6 feet from my neighbor's fenceline onto the public alley, then walked around into the alley and blew everything another 10ft onto my property and against my house. It was quite blatant and intentional (I reviewed the action on my security camera footage). I had just raked and cleared this entire space the day before. I walked over to complain and Burnett lied and acted like he didn't know what I was talking about (he must not have noticed my security cameras). The only lawn-related job I'd trust to this guy is being a snake in the grass.

Burnett responded promptly and was there to prevent a tree from falling on my home due to a split tree trunk. He was very sympathetic and gave me an amazing price. His crew was at my home the next day, and worked non stop to remove my huge poison ivy covered trees. The crew was made up of kind and respectful people who went above and beyond to clear my space of all debris. I'm not a warm and fuzzy person, so I don't hand out compliments easily, but they are the best at what they do.

I asked Illini Home Improvements to insulate a room that is above our garage. This room was very…read morecold in the winter, and very hot in the summer. They came out and inspected what insulation I already had, and explained clearly why that insulation wasn't working. Basically, the builder had not insulated properly, either due to not knowing the proper way to insulate this type of room, or due to cutting corners. They explained to me what they would recommend, and why, and gave a firm estimate and time frame for when they could do the job. I agreed and their team showed up when they said they would, did the job, and cleaned up after themselves. They stuck to their quote even though the job took a significant amount more of insulation than expected. I was able to inspect their work via the attic, and they did exactly what they told me they would do. So far this room is warmer in the winter, but will never be as warm as the rest of the house due to being over a cold garage, and due to having inadequate heating vents. But at least the room is usable now and we can use a space heater as needed. My thanks to the team, and I'll call them again when I need something insulated. Note that despite the name of this company, they don't do EVERY kind of home improvement; this company specializes in weather-proofing/ insulation.

I was unhappy with the way the installer (his name was Chuck) handled the job. The screens were torn (not his fault), but instead of replacing them and coming back to finish the job as he said he would, he returned the broken screens to my porch about a month later with a note taped to it with a disconnected phone number. He didn't leave the packaging materials or instructions, so returning them to the company wasn't an option for me. I had to pay $90 for replacement parts, and Illini Home Improvement refused to accept responsibility for the job since the contractor was no longer employed with them. Frustrating to say the least and my doors are still not in working order.
