Keith Venturi, owner of VP Construction of Barrington, IL is the worst General Contractor in the Chicagoland area. Dishonest, over budget and way past their given deadline. I deeply regret hiring him.

Scroll through the reviews here and you'll see the positive ones were left by the owner himself, Keith Venturi. This does not not surprise me or my co-workers, since he did some work on our office. Very sloppy work.

Everything You Need to Know About Chicago Home Builders

What should I check for once my Home Builder in Chicago has finished working?

Every home building services project is going to have different results, but here are a few things to check for once any home building services company has told you they've finished the job:

  • Obviously you want to do a visual inspection. Even if you're unfamiliar with home building services work, this gives you the opportunity to ask questions (even basic ones like, what did you do?).
  • Ask the home builder to describe what they did. Whether your home building services project was a repair job or a building job, have them run you through what was done.
  • Compare the description provided on your home building services project estimate to the work completed. Did the professional do what was promised?
  • Request that the home builder do a follow-up visit to check on the work. Most professionals are willing to do this, especially if you ask them.

How does invoicing/payment work for most Home Builder projects in Chicago?

Every project differs, but you should ask any home builder for an estimate, before they do any work. In fact, ask for their general payment terms before any home building services work is done.

If the job is large and going to take longer than a day, it's common practice for home builders to request a down payment. Usually, this will be around 25% so they can commence work on your home builder project.

If it's a quick job, you'll likely be given an invoice/bill when the job is complete. Then it's up to you and the home builder to determine if you pay immediately or can send payment at a later date.

Who are the best Home Builders in Chicago?

We've found 50 home builder providers that are available to you in Chicago.
