They started on the day they said they would, did an excellent job and finished in a timely fashion. Dave and Tony gave suggestions that were greatly appreciated. I am so happy with the finished product, it almost made the water damage worth the trouble.
Description of Work: Cunningham Construction did some window and door replacement for me in the past and when I needed someone to remodel my basement after water damage, I called them. The job included replacement of the affected wallboard, new windows, wood trim, stair railing and electric.

We decided on Pella windows and Pella recommended Cunningham Construction. They had done quite a few of their installations and their customers were very happy. We asked for references and checked them. We were expecting the first installation project to take several days, but Dave and Tony had it done in 2-1/2. Their craftsmanship is unbeatable and their attention to detail is very welcomed. One thing that really impressed us was that when they left our home, they had cleaned up all the mess and taken all the debris with them. A couple of years later, we had more Pella windows done and there was never a question of who would install them. When we started looking for a company to handle our remodeling project, we did look at other contractors. Even though Cunningham Construction would cost us a little more, our confidence in them was worth it. As with any remodeling project on a 30+ year old home, there are surprises as the ceiling and drywall comes down. Dave was wonderful in working around and through these little surprises still providing us with the look we wanted. When a project requires skills that Cunningham Construction may lack, they have outside contractors that come in, under their supervision, to handle the task. We had a wonderful man who did the drywall taping and mud work. We have recommended Cunningham Construction to friends who have had windows installed and to remodel their home.
Description of Work: Cunningham Construction has done 3 projects for us: 2 installations of Pella Windows and a remodel of our kitchen, family room, laundry room and 1/2 bath. With the window replacement, they had to re-side much of our home. They added new insulation and matched our present siding. We changed the size of some of our windows and they were wonderful in making sure the outside and the inside looked as though the windows had always been there. We used Pella wood windows, but it was Dave's installation expertise and detail to the finishes that made the projects a success. With the remodel, Dave and Tony handled all the lighting, plumbing and drywall. They had to take face-brick off the four sides of our fireplace and drywall it. Dave also worked closely with our cabinet maker to insure that the range hood and lighting controls would fit once they installed the custom cabinets. They handled the install of all the new fixtures in the bathroom and the stacking and installation of our washer/dryer.

His work ethic is outstanding. He is a perfectionist. He can look at something and can tell you what it should be and what he thinks about it. He is very easy to work with and offers a lot of suggestions which can open up your mind to see all options. He is a craftsman and very skilled at that. When he leaves your house everyday, your house is spotless. They clean up very well after themselves. I've had others do things for me and I can't even compare the other service providers to Cunningham Construction. He does absolutely outstanding work. If he tells you it is going to take an x amount of time he is very good at estimating the timeline of the project.
Description of Work: They did three sections of work. The first thing they did was gut my house (my living room, dining room, kitchen, and two bedrooms, which included all new doors and woodworking). They took some walls down, put in all new floors, tile and cabinets. The second phase of work was some window work and some siding work. The third phase was them remodeling two bathrooms. I paid approx $75,000 for the first phase, about $45,000 for the windows and siding, and about $30,000 for the two bathrooms.

Description of Work: A complete remodel of our bathroom. Everything was removed down to the studs. New floor, tub, shower, walls, vanity, skylight, fan, and elaborate tiling around the tub and floor was installed. Cunningham Construction did an excellent job on all phases of the project beginning with consulting and planning for the bathroom project. They were very helpful in deciding on design, materials, and fixtures. Their attention to detail and knowledge of construction and design principles from a "hands on" perspective helped to make this project a huge success. Their work ethic and finished product are beyond reproach. They arrived each day on time, reviewed plans for the day, and cleaned up the work area before leaving at the end of each day. All time committments were met and the project came in under budget. I have and will continue to recommend Cunningham Construction. They can be trusted to do what they say they will do in a highly professional manner with outstanding results.

The windows were delivered in November and the problems were obvious. The 10 windows for the bedrooms were delivered as Architect Series, not the Designer Series. The sliding patio door was not the correct size or series. The kitchen bay window was 8 inches longer than it should have been. Three village inspectors told us that the kitchen bay window was improperly ordered. A Pella employee came to our house and measured the opening for the window as 80.1 inches, much smaller than the 89 inch window that Cunningham ordered. Cunningham would not admit to any of his errors. We had to hire an attorney to represent us. The representatives from Pella from the West Chicago office stood behind Cunningham and said he could make the bay window fit by cutting it down to size, something that the Pella Corporation in Iowa said would void all the warranties. We had to fire Cunningham and buy the windows that were correctly ordered and the incorrectly ordered kitchen bay, because Pella said he could make it work. If you even consider hiring Cunningham to do any work around your house make sure you have enough money for the lawyer you will need to hire.
Description of Work: On October 24, 2010 we hired Cunningham Construction which is located at 1421 Shady Lane, Schaumburg, IL 60173 to replace all of the windows in our Schaumburg home. There were 35 casement windows and doors. The existing casement windows were to be replaced with Pella Designer Series casement windows. The dining room window was the only window that was to be changed. We replaced the four windows with a small picture window and two side casement windows. The other windows were to be replaced with windows that were the exact same size and style. As Mr. Cunningham said "easy out, easy in'.
