Services

Every trade and phase, under one roof

Whether you're breaking ground on a new building or keeping an existing portfolio in top shape, you coordinate with one team — not six different contractors.

📐
Design & Planning

Space planning, design development, material selection, permit drawings, and pre-construction budgeting for residential and commercial projects.

Pre-Construction 🏗️
General Contracting

Ground-up construction, additions, and full project management with licensed subcontractors and a single point of accountability.

Build 🛠️
Renovations & Build-Outs

Gut rehabs, kitchen and bath remodels, tenant improvements, and commercial build-outs that respect timelines and tenants alike.

Build 🔧
Plumbing, HVAC & Electrical

Licensed trades for repairs, replacements, and emergencies — leak repairs, system failures, panel work, and code-compliance fixes.

Emergency Available 🏠
Unit Turns & Make-Ready

Full turnover service: painting, patching, flooring, appliance checks, and punch-list completion to get units rent-ready fast.

Fast Turnaround 🏢
Maintenance & Facilities

Recurring upkeep for common areas, carpentry and general repairs, and preventive programs that protect your asset year-round.

Recurring Programs
For Owners & Developers

Build with a team that won't disappear

From a single-property renovation to a multi-building development, we bring design and construction together — then stay on to maintain what we built.

🏗️
Ground-up & gut renovation

New construction, full-building rehabs, and additions managed end-to-end with clear schedules and a fixed point of contact.

📋
Design-build delivery

One contract for design and construction. Fewer handoffs, faster timelines, and a single team accountable for the outcome.

🤝
Maintenance that follows the build

When the project wraps, we don't. Roll straight into a maintenance agreement and protect your investment from day one.

🏬
Capital improvement projects

Roofs, façades, mechanical systems, and common-area upgrades planned and executed with minimal disruption to occupants.

🏘️
Multi-property portfolios

Standardized scopes and pricing across your buildings, with consolidated reporting for owners and investors.

✅
Licensed & insured in Illinois

Full licensing, insurance, and lien-waiver documentation — everything your lender and your records require.

⚡
One call for the whole asset

Design questions, construction issues, and a 2 a.m. burst pipe all reach the same trusted team.

🔨
Dedicated handyman program

A named technician assigned to your property — handles the day-to-day repairs, touch-ups, and punch-list items so nothing small ever falls through the cracks.

For Property Managers

Maintenance built for the way you work

We plug directly into your property management software, so your team submits work orders exactly the way it always has — and we handle everything from there.

🔗
Native software integration

We receive work orders directly from AppFolio, Buildium, Property Meld, DoorLoop, Rent Manager, and Yardi. Your team's workflow doesn't change at all.

📸
Photo documentation on every job

Before and after photos uploaded to your platform automatically — protecting you on security deposits and keeping owners informed.

📊
Monthly maintenance reports

Consolidated reporting on completed work, costs, and response times — ready to drop into your owner statements.

📞
Dedicated point of contact

Every client gets a single account manager — not a call center. Text or call directly, any time.

⚡
4-hour emergency response

Burst pipes, HVAC failures, lockouts — we're on-site within 4 hours across Chicago metro, day or night.

💵
Preferred-vendor pricing

Standard, priority, and emergency rates agreed upfront. No surprise change orders, no mid-job quote chasing.

Software-ready from day one

We register inside your platform and run a test work order to confirm the two-way integration works — usually within 24 hours of signing on.
