11/18/2016 HOMEOWNERS BEWARE: Adam Shaf the same person of The Shaf Group who operates under Luxe Construction Management LLC also known as CS Luxe , Lake Zurich,Il. A DO NOT HIRE. Adam was hired as a General Contractor for the homeowner. Poor money management skills. After receiving homeowners payments for supplies and sub-contractors, homeowners learned he was paying sub-contractors with bad checks or not paying them at all. A sub-contractor did threaten to put a lien on the homeowners if they weren't paid. Adam carpentry skills very shoddy cuts corners and homeowner ended up doing some of the work that Adam was paid to do. Homeowners also learned Adam is not a truthful person has hundred one excuses for everything and does not honor his credits due back to the homeowner. His sub-contractors constantly complain about Adam. Sadly homeowner did recommend Adam to a friend who in turn did the same thing to them sloppy work and not paying his workers. read more

Adam is terrible, a bad builder who has done a terrible job for us. we are really angry and our new contractor shows us all the bad work that was done. he was never overseeing the job, always at starbucks, never supervising his people and whenever he said he would show up he was never there. he used bad quality material- he used the cheapest granite the cheapest tile , he never listed to us, and tried to find the cheapest way to build our house- he did things that other contractors have said, how could he do this to you.. our floor creaks everywhere, the wood corners do not meet anywhere in our house, our floor and walls are not straight and our hardwood is separating. He has ruined our house and our lives. We are so upset- we saved a lot to build our house and spent everything we had and lost it all. Shame on you Adam Shaf. We used him because of his great family name- what a mistake it was. read more

Outstanding. We recently had Adam and his colleagues design and install a beautiful pool in our backyard. This was not an easy task. After seeing his impeccable work, my husband and I then decided to have him redo our custom hardwood floors. We could not be happier. Finding a good contractor that is patient has been difficult in the North Shore area and my husband is a tad of a perfectionist, but Adam was able to listen to us and went beyond our expectations. Overall, this has been a refreshing experience. We had minor hiccups of course, but Adam was easy to work with and the results are impeccable. We highly recommend him over and over and are grateful to have found him. With Gratitude, read more

We contracted Adam to completely gut and rehab a home we purchased and he transformed it from a 1927 abandoned home into a beautiful Farm house. Worked with Studio 41, Hines Lumber, Granite and Marble Gallery, and had a great experience. The project took a few weeks longer then expected, but we remained in budget, and the work was done well. Would definitely recommend Adam. read more

We built our first custom home with Adam in Glenview and we really love our home. He helped us modify the plans to represent our style and it feel like our home. He was great to work with, and built our home within budget and within 8 months of the one year contract. We met weekly on site and his trades were great to work with. We would build with him again. read more

Adam and his Lux Design does not pay their subcontractors. He owes out a lot of money from 2014. No wonder he does shotty work. JB Des Plaines, IL read more
