Do you think it's weird how the descriptions of their various companies change? How they used to…read moremarket themselves as general contractors but are now pretending that they are only cabinet makers? Do you think it's weird how every time someone posts a negative review, they claim they have no contract or records of doing business with them? When the people are calling them out by name? Do your homework on these people before you work with them. Ask them for references. Don't trust reviews online without meeting real world references. Jeremy and Stacey took a $100k+ deposit from us and barely did any work before claiming they ran out of money and stopped answering our calls. Multiple people associated with the job claimed they were unpaid and were lied to by the Bradleys. Anyone with questions can contact me directly. 773-571-3228. The only thing these people actually know anything about is how to structure LLCs so that they can rip people off without consequences. It would cost me more to sue these scam artists than I believe they are actually worth. They are desperate people with a long history of failure who will not hesitate to lie, steal, and cheat.

The work was never finished and I was ghosted by them:::::I've been avoiding writing this for over…read morea year because I really don't even want to spend time on this or get my blood pressure up. Jeremy and Stacey were so nice and great to talk to in person, in the end I feel duped by them. Jeremy seemed like he was down to earth and ready to make things happen, he often offered fixtures and things that he had pulled from gut-jobs. He seemed like he was down to problem solve and make things happen. I trusted them and was really excited in the beginning. I was pregnant with my first child when I hired them to do our bathroom. My kid is now 19 months old and the work is still not finished. I don't even have the energy to truly outline all of my complaints. The biggest issue I have is that they have refused my calls and emails and ghosted me for a year now. I have been nothing but kind and respectful. I delayed this review to give them the benefit of the doubt and wait for them to get back to me or finish the work. I am so upset and disappointed - I really wish I had NEVER done this. I feel like I wasted over 50k and had a bad job done. There is ONE outlet in the entire space, the switches and outlet seem to be writed insanely (I still can't tell what goes to what and why the switch at the bottom of the stairs overrides some things but not others), theres a hanging exhaust fan, no vent to the roof, gaps between trim and tiles, hammered and mismatched fixtures. They convinced me I should get a custom vanity made by them because it was the only one that would fit and be ready on time, which cost more than the one that I really wanted and by the time they made it I could have gotten the one I really wanted from West Elm. I had to contract my own stone cutter and they generously came back and forth multiple timess over the course of a week because the bradley built project manager couldn't communicate correctly about who was responsible for doing what and when. Their employees were constantly quitting or being let go. One day, the contracted tiler came to my house and demanded to be paid because Bradley Built had gotten into an argument with him about the cost and then they just hadn't paid him? Who knows, because of course they didn't answer phones or emails for weeks on end. But I was stuck in the middle of it! They tout their communication and transparency and pride in their finishing work, they took over 9 months to do the bulk of the work and then ghosted me. Leaving me with a newborn and a shower that I had to connect myself and now I am finally giving up, writing this review, and calling all over town finding electricians, roofers, tilers and plumbers to finish the job they were paid to do. It was my first experience as a homeowner working with a contractor and it lived up to ALL of the horror stories. Unless you're rolling in money, and can be their number one priority I guess they just don't care. Makes me really sad. I would love a simple apology, honestly.

If you need tile work done right, Francisco is your guy. We just finished a full kitchen renovation…read morein our 1925 condo and Francisco handled all the tile -- a beveled subway tile backsplash and a penny round floor with a black penny border. Both turned out absolutely beautiful. What stood out to us was his precision. The penny round floor with the border detail is not easy work, and the lines are crisp and perfectly laid throughout. The backsplash is clean and even, with grout lines that are consistent everywhere you look. He clearly takes pride in the craft and doesn't cut corners. He was also professional, tidy, and respectful of our home the whole time he was here -- no small thing during a big renovation. He showed up when he said he would and kept the workspace clean. We couldn't be happier with the result and wouldn't hesitate to hire him again or recommend him to anyone. Thank you, Francisco!

I have nothing but praise for Karen Gaimari and Yonan Carpet. Karen has been in the industry for…read moreyears but only recently was named Manager of the Oak Park Yonan store. She was patient, kind and knowledgeable throughout my months of shopping, always sharing samples for my difficult project. When it came time to install, Karen sent Ray, a true artisan of his craft. Ray cut, seamed, and edged the multi angled runner on site. It is perfect! Yonan is lucky to have Karen and Ray on its team of professionals. Feel free to reach out to Karen for my phone number if you need a happy client's perspective. There is nothing like new carpeting to lift your spirits and make your home happy!

Very neat--full cleanup at the end of every day. They were also very responsive and did more than they had agreed to, as we kept finding new areas that needed touch ups. Thomas Restoration came in about 20% cheaper than the other Oak Park premium painter (Ronbo). We tried to get a proposal from another "Oak Park" firm (which is actually just an Oak Park mail drop) and they never even came back with a proposal. Twelve years ago, we had the house painted and went cheap and regretted it. We definitely got our moneys worth with Thomas Restoration. Highly recommend.
