About us

With over 20 years of industry experience, you can trust B1B with all of your home renovation, remodeling and custom carpentry needs. We know your home is important, and you can trust us to work closely with you every step of the way to realize your vision for whatever your home requires, whether it be a new kitchen, bathroom, or the addition of a wheelchair ramp for a family member. We know that many times, general contractors secure customers by making promises they can’t keep. They get jobs by giving lowball estimates and unrealistic time frames only to drive up the price and take twice the amount of time to finish half way into the job. At B1B, we pride ourselves in providing customers with realistic budgets and time frames from day one, so there are no nasty surprises later. Our practical approach helps take the worry out of the natural stress of home remodeling. As a fully certified and licensed contractor, know that from proper permits to insurance, your project will be handled thoroughly and professionally. We provide you the flexibility of using your own plans or having us work with you to create a custom design. Additionally, our extensive background in green materials and experience with custom steel fabrication also affords us the opportunity to provide environmentally conscious home building solutions for our clients interested in decks, porches and wheelchair ramps. CONTACT US today for your free estimate and more details.

Very good overall. Price was competitive with others, he came on time and finished only a day later than we expected. Very importantly he did not try to sell us repairs/alterations which seemed to be unreasonable -- unlike most of the other companies we contacted who did. We would certainly use them again.
Description of Work: Repaired roof with a wooden deck over it. This involved removing the deck, cleaning leaves trapped underneath, resealing parts of the roof then replacing (with new wood for parts) the deck. Also redirecting some drains from the roof.

Eric and his workers got the job done, on schedule, and for the price he quoted (which was considerably better than other estimate we got). The new supports look very solid. What more can you ask for?
Description of Work: Installed 10 new wooden support posts to fix structural problems in our basement.

.. If you are looking for the Best Carpenter, Eric Dingle is the man to call. He built our porch in 95 degree heat. I never saw such a hard worker and perfectionist. The porch turned out original in design and Beautiful. He and crew member were friendly, on schedule and charged a reasonable fee. We are planning to call Eric for other projects but in cool weather. We couldn't be more pleased with Erics expertise. Hubby said if our house ever falls down, that porch will still be standing. Ha Ha You won't be disappointed----thank you Eric. B and L in Skokie
Description of Work: removed old porch and built new porch
