Jiri and Renata have been doing projects, big and small, for our 110-year-old house for over a decade. Re-built porch...crown molding throughout the main floor...renovated bathroom and powder room...kitchen backsplash...and most recently, a totally renovated basement. Jiri truly is a master craftsman with an eye for detail and perfection that is simply uncanny. Similarly, Renata has a remarkable ability to understand and appreciate our aesthetic, and connect us with the retailers and designers to match that vision. They are incredibly patient, responsive, and just really, really nice! Whenever problems arise (which in a house this old they always do), Jiri and Renata ensure that the problem gets resolved quickly and cost effectively, which attenuates the pain of the unexpected. Among other projects in our home, Jiri and Renata have recreated a post-deco upstairs bathroom, and matched the front porch and bannisters to the pre-craftsman era of the exterior. For the recent basement project, we decided to meld both modern and vintage elegance with maximum functionality. They were able to re-build our stairs (to code), add new windows, create a comfortable media room with fireplace and built-in audio, a music room for our grand piano, a modern office space, a guest bedroom with en suite and steam shower, a laundry room, and enough storage to meet our needs. In the process, we got a new furnace and duct work, hot water heater, updated electrical, and insulation. We're just as excited by what we don't see as by what we do see! I can't recommend Delta Star highly enough. We would never consider working with any other Chicago contractor. We trust their knowledge, experience, and expertise one hundred percent. Knowing the quality and craftsmanship that Jiri and Renata bring to the table alleviates the anxiety that goes with any home project. read more

We recently moved into a condo loft with great potential, but that needed a major facelift. Our biggest dilemma was the master bathroom on the upper floor, as we knew it would be a challenging space to redesign. The bathroom in its original state featured a gigantic step-in jacuzzi tub, skylights with pull-down shades, a sloping ceiling, and an odd heating duct jutting out of the tub's base (not to mention the dreadful late-80's tile, vanity and fixtures). We hired Delta Star Group Inc. to take on the project for a number of reasons: - They came highly recommended from a number of our friends in the Chicago area. - Even during our very first meeting, they came prepared with a portfolio of their work, and took detailed measurements of every single nook & cranny. - Their pricing was extremely fair and the quote was neatly organized, with each line item having it's own explanation and corresponding charge. - The Delta Star representative went with us to pick out every detail of the bathroom from the tile to the fixtures (now who really does that these days?) and called us every other day to walk us through every step of the process, which impressed us greatly. The entire bathroom renovation took only about 4 weeks. During this time, we were particularly impressed with the level of attention to detail Delta Star put into every aspect of the bathroom. We had originally wanted an invisible drain installed, but crossed it off our list due to the additional $800 it would have added to our budget. Delta Star built us a custom made one FREE OF CHARGE, and it looked amazing. Wow. All in all, you will not get better workmanship and customer service for your money in all of Chicagoland when it comes to any kind of home renovation project. I cannot recommend Delta Star Group highly enough, as there was never one single moment I felt I was being taken advantage of or led astray. If you are new home buyers and have never done the renovation thing (like we hadn't) call them up TODAY and book them for your next project. You will want to make sure you reserve them far in advance, as they sometimes have a client waiting list of up to 1 year (that's how good they are!). read more

Renata and Jiri just completed a full gut remodeling of a bathroom for us and the results are spectacular. This husband and wife team (she is the GC and he is the craftsman) have been a pleasure to work with. Their communication regarding the process was always accurate, they are both extremely detail oriented. I received plenty of updates and alway felt I knew what was happening that day/week. They have access to design services that helped in my case to put a plan together to make the most of an 8 by 8 room. They also have access to great local vendors. They were also fine with me picking some vendors (tile/stone, shower door) and worked well with everyone. Our home was never a mess. Jiri put down drop cloths each morning and rolled them up and the end of each day. Jiri has mastered a broad range of construction skills. He did the demolition, framing, sheet rocking, plastering, plumbing, electrical, ran a new air conditioning duct, tiling (stone and recycled glass for us), installed the bath fixtures/accessories, installed the cabinets, constructed a new window frame, wood finishing, painting, reused an old door (filled the old mortise, installed a new lock and hinges). Renata, managed the suppliers, including picking up the stone/tile, bathroom accessories, established the timeline and ran the project. She always let me know if a scheduling adjustment was needed based on suppliers running longer (ex. Tub manufacturer needed more time to build and deliver that was originally communicated by the vendor). I believe their pricing is more than fair, particularly when you consider how much time both Renata and Jiri put into the project. I will certainly call on them again and have already recommended them to friends and folks I work with. read more

Courteous, professional, hard-working, and excellent craftsmen. We had done a bathroom renovation with another contractor previously and it was just short of a disaster. So when we did our kitchen I wanted as little stress as possible and Delta Star Group delivered. When we were vetting possible new contractors it was Renata's eye that caught our attention. She reviewed our kitchen she noticed tiny imperfections that I didn't even notice, and I pride myself in being a stickler for noticing detail like that. In the same breath Renata would then immediately explain how she would fix the problem and not allow it in the kitchen they finish. When work started it was straight forward with absolutely no surprises. They finished the work in the time they said they would and I didn't have to go back and check their work and ask them to fix something I didn't like, I didn't notice anything out of place or sloppy. Not one thing in 5 weeks of work. They took EXTREME care to make it as painless for me as possible. Everything was covered in plastic, and every day after doing a lot of work Jiri would walk up and down three flights of stairs to remove any garbage that he could take out along with usually doing a quick vacuum of the area and moving his equipment out of the way so it wasn't all over my house. When the countertop people left a gap between the floor and counter, Jiri filled it without me asking and it looks great. When we wanted a last minute change to our pantry door, they actually built us a new door out of materials from the cabinets and it looks amazing! They even took a trip out to ikea with us to hold our hand while making the final decision on some cabinets and countertop and gave us some useful expert advice on what to do. These were all details I appreciated and I thought it showed that they were willing to go above and beyond. Turns out that that's just business as usual for Delta Star Group, they won't have it any other way. I will never go to any other contractor while I live in the Chicago area. Delta Star Group's work can only be described as impeccable. Their craftsmanship and attention to detail is exactly what I want in my contractor. I cannot recommend these people enough. read more

I own a high end rental unit in Chicago but live out of state. My long term tenants have purchased their own home and I needed to get the unit in perfect condition for the new tenant. I phoned Delta Star Group to arrange for them to go over to the unit and access what needed to be done. I whole-heartedly trust them and deferred to their recommendation. I have used them on two prior jobs and yet once again they did not disappoint. They are extremely honest, their work is flawless, their level of detail is extraordinary. The unit looks brand new! They also worked within my time frame which was fantastic. My previous tenant moved out on June 16th and my new tenant moves in July 1st and the place is ready for new occupancy. If you are looking for a company that represents the true value of integrity and takes pride in their work, look no further. Working with Renata and Jiri is a complete joy. Their bid was always reasonable and you can't beat their work. read more

Awesome experience! Found them on CL and checked them out on Yelp. They came out and showed us samples of their work and we were really pleased. Quick turnaround with providing a quote too. The job, a complete kitchen demolition, re-design and cabinet installation also included a glass tile backsplash, electrical and installation for under cabinet lights and plumbing for a dishwasher and garbage disposal. I would give Delta Star gets six stars, but Yelp only allows me to give them five. read more
