About Us

A decade of trusted construction and remodeling in Chicago, Illinois.

Built on Chicago Craftsmanship

MB Home Additions & Room Additions was founded more than a decade ago with a single mission: to give Chicago homeowners a construction partner they could genuinely trust. We started small, taking on room additions and basement finishing projects in neighbourhoods like Lincoln Square, Wicker Park, and Andersonville. Word spread because we showed up on time, communicated clearly, and delivered results that lasted.

Today, we are a fully licensed and insured general contracting firm serving Chicago and the surrounding metro area. We hold a 5-star rating across 20 verified Google reviews — a record built project by project, family by family. Whether you need a kitchen gut renovation, a bathroom overhaul, or a full home addition, our team brings the same attention to detail and respect for your home to every job we take on in the city of Chicago.

Why We Started

We started MB Home Additions because we saw too many Chicago homeowners get burned by contractors who overpromised and underdelivered. Our founders believed that a construction company could be different — professional, honest, and genuinely invested in the outcome.

That philosophy guides every project we take on, from the first phone call to the final inspection. We don't cut corners, we don't disappear mid-project, and we don't consider the job finished until you are satisfied.

  • Integrity — honest estimates, no hidden costs, no surprises
  • Accountability — we stand behind our work with a satisfaction guarantee
  • Community — rooted in Chicago, invested in its neighbourhoods
