A mixed review. $70k in ground pool and concrete installed in Gurnee. Initial installation was…read moregreat. Pool was put in level and exactly to specifications. Concrete work looks great. Follow-up wasn't great. Pool went in at the end of fall. Workers through a tarp on a left dirt and rocks for the spring. I had to call several times for them to come open it, then they workers complained about how the pool was left. Eventually it got done but a sticky residue was left at the water line. They sent someone out to clean it but he gave up and said it would wear off. They are also some minor scratches I asked about but the office manager ignored my email. Also when using a chalk line to mark out the cover mounting holes in the concrete they used red chalk which is permanent. Blue chalk washes off. Now I have a faint red line around my pool. No one ever explained how to run or operate the system. I had to figure it out myself. Basically, good initial work but no follow-up. Once they get your money they are done.

We hired AB Remodeling for a basement Reno (oversized brick raised ranch) after two other consults…read more(both of whom came in at at TWICE the cost) and could not be happier with that choice! Chris and his team were efficient (on time everyday - worked on Saturdays) easy to communicate with and kept me informed throughout the process. Asking for my input and adjusting to my preferences. When discussing the estimate and hashing out the details my Dad suggested we add a 'Time' clause ie 'If you go longer than the agreed upon time frame of 5 weeks there will be a monetary penalty', well Chris did not bat an eyelash and agreed without hesitation - he knows his crew and how they work so was not at all worried about running long - and to our delight he was RIGHT!! They estimated 5 weeks for a basement remodel to include demo, a true bedroom, tv room and a fully built bathroom with plumbing and were done in 4!!! We have been living in the space for almost a month now and have had no issues, no surprises - not one!! I find this to be a point of praise for AB Remodeling!! Chris and his crew were respectful of our home, were helpful in general and cleaned up all of the construction mess - to include hauling away all the trash. This really is a one stop shop kinda company, demo, planning, building, electric, tiling to plumbing... they did it all with ease. So helpful to us. This was our first foray into home renovations with an outside contractor and we couldn't be more pleased. Beautiful , clean and quality work! Chris and his team were so good at each task, even designing the bathroom! - and made it a very good experience for us which was appreciated. I highly recommend AB Remodeling, so much so based on this Reno we are now considering another project and I WILL BE hiring Chris and his team again!!!

We had an amazing experience with A.B. Contracting, and I can't recommend Chris and his team…read moreenough. We were remodeling our basement and got several quotes, but Chris immediately stood out with a fair, reasonable price and a thoughtful approach that made us feel comfortable right from the start. What really set Chris apart was how involved he was before the work even began--and all the way through the project. He offered great design and layout suggestions we honestly wouldn't have thought of on our own, from flooring choices to lighting to small details that made a big difference. He also helped design the space so it functions like three different rooms while still feeling like one connected, open area, which completely changed how we use it. His team was on time, professional, and incredibly respectful. They put down protective matting as they went in and out of the basement, swept the floors daily, cleaned up debris as they worked, and treated our home with real care. They even took their shoes off before coming inside. It genuinely felt like they were remodeling their own home, not just doing a job. The crew truly felt like family, and the before-and-after transformation of our basement is incredible. There were also a lot of thoughtful touches that really stood out. On days when we weren't home, Chris and his team would bring our garbage cans up near the house on collection day, which was completely unexpected and very appreciated. Even after the basement was finished, they helped move furniture and larger items downstairs, which felt truly above and beyond. Our dog even loved them--and he's a pretty good judge of character. Throughout the entire process, they were consistently kind, considerate, and easy to have around. One highlight that still amazes me: Chris and his team stained the basement stairs to perfectly match our first-floor stairs. I honestly didn't think it could be done, but they took their time and absolutely nailed it. The drywall and framing work were done beautifully, and what really stood out was that Chris came back later to check on everything and make small touch-ups, just to be sure the work held up. That level of pride and follow-through is rare. They painted the ceiling black and were meticulous--no missed spots, no shortcuts. Everything was done with care. We agreed on a timeline, and they started when they said they would, finished on time, and left the space spotless when the job was done. To make things even easier, we simply picked out samples from Home Depot, and Chris and his team handled all the materials. The entire process was smooth and stress-free. All we had to do was make one call, do a little planning, and enjoy our new basement one to two weeks later. And honestly, our basement is now one of our favorite parts of the house. It's peaceful, quiet, and truly enjoyable. What we expected to be just a more functional space turned into a place we actually love spending time in. The whole experience felt exciting--almost like Christmas morning--watching it come together. The results completely exceeded our expectations. We're really happy we chose Chris and his team for this project. The experience was smooth from start to finish, the quality of the work speaks for itself, and we'd absolutely work with them again if we ever take on another remodel.

I was recommended this company by a family friend and decided to call Ivo, the owner, for a quote. He came by, looked at my place, and gave me by far the most competitive quote I got from everyone I called. Everything was very quick. We signed a contract the following Monday and, per my request, started in a week. They did various work in my bathroom, built me a soffit in the kitchen to cover some ducting, and installed laminate floors with baseboards in my entire condo. This was all finished in less than two weeks. For this price and this speed, you'd expect it to be poor quality work but it's quite the opposite. Everything looks absolutely wonderful and I'm incredibly pleased. I can't thank these guys enough!!!

Odd company to do business with. I originally contacted them for a drainage issue and they arrived…read morefor an estimate. I was told they had a minimum charge for a job (@450) so we added more work and a yard clean up for fall with a total of around $1000.00. When I tried to schedule the work I had a hard time contacting them and was finally told that all they would do was the yard clean up. Not sure if this is a bait and switch tactic but what a waste of two weeks of my time. They do have great reviews of their work, just getting them to quote and do what they quoted seems to be the difficult part. Perhaps too busy but they should not waste potential customers time or make their process so frustrating.

Well done, Aztec Fence!…read more We hired Aztec fence to install a new gate and repair multiple fence panels after our 20+ year old fence had several panels collapse after a recent storm. We immediately thought to call Aztec who built the fence 20+ years ago, and spoke with Albert, a friendly and knowledgeable sales representative. Albert, set the appointment, was on time and thoroughly reviewed our current issues and all options available for repair or replacement. Albert explained the warranty, coordinated with "Julie" to mark for wiring, gas lines, etc. and communicated with us regularly along with the efficient office staff who kept us abreast of the work timeline. The workmanship was excellent and we were especially pleased with the fair pricing and customer service experience. We're proud to say that Aztec built our fence 20+ years ago and it is still standing in spite of the recent storm! Thank you, Aztec for your craftsmanship and great customer service!
