R&W Alternative Remodeling Inc. took care of the design and permit process. This process went more quickly than expected. (Much more quickly than if I had done it myself.) The work was performed promptly and conscientiously. They kept the site clean and organized. The final result was beyond expectations. The porch and parapet wall passed city inspection without modification.

Working with R&W Alternative Remodeling was truly a great experience. Being in the real estate industry, I deal with contractors on a daily basis and quality service is not easy to find. When building my porch, R&W Alternative Remodeling not only did excellent work, but they did a great job keeping me updated on each step of the process from plans and permits to final city inspection.
For the first time I did not have to make a million phone calls and chase down contractors. Many contractors out there can learn something from R&W's quality work, communication, and service.
I highly recommend them!

R&W Alternative Remodeling
I wanted to send a quick note to thank you for the excellent work you did on my back porch at 6935 S. Green in Chicago. Every interaction I had with you and your associates throughout the process was professional and friendly. Having dealt with many, many contractors over the years, I know that those who can deliver prompt, courteous and professional service are few. Your company met every expectation from beginning to end: you were on time for the scheduled estimate and all inspections; you provided a cost estimate in the promised time frame; your pricing was reasonable compared to other estimates I received; the work was in accordance with applicable building codes; you took care of the permit and inspection process; the work was performed in a professional manner and all debris was cleared away upon completion.
I am thoroughly pleased with the work and R&W Remodeling as a whole and have already recommended your company to several others. Feel free to give a copy of this letter to anyone who is considering your company for a job. I would also be happy to speak with any potential clients about my experience with you and your company.
Regards, Dear prospective customers of R&W Alternative Remodeling, I’m the president of a three-flat condo unit in Edgewater, Chicago, and we just had R&W Alternative Remodeling replace the back exterior wood stairway of our building. I’m writing to highly recommend these guys if you’re making arrangements for a similar job. We got eight estimates for this project, and R&W came in with a price that was several thousand dollars lower than the other bids. Any concerns I had that the lower price would compromise the quality of the work were completely unfounded. Owner, the crew leader, was remarkably courteous and conscientious throughout the entire process. He took care of the design and the necessary permits, and the work they did was absolutely top-notch. Another thing I appreciate is the way owner kept me updated every step of the way. Especially with all the rain we had this spring (’09), there were some days when the crew were forced to delay their work. Despite these unavoidable delays, I always knew from owner exactly what the crew was doing, and they made steady progress. My general impression from this experience was that R&W Alternative Remodeling was working with me to improve the safety, appearance, and value of our building. They kept the work site clean, they skillfully adapted to some surprises of the kind that frequently arise when working on an older building like ours, and they were admirably communicative and friendly. Again, I’m pleased to give R&W Alternative Remodeling a big “thumbs up.” Todd DeStigter My condo building was cited for city code violations on our back porch and masonry in January of this year.

As the Condo Association President, it was my responsibility to find a contractor for the job, while keeping a budget and a hearing deadline in mind. I had multiple companies give me an estimate for the work, but it was the knowledge and professionalism of R&W Alternative Remodeling that pushed me in their direction. I haven't regretted my decision since, and have been recommending their services to anyone I know who needs a reliable and high-quality contractor and crew. They took care of the permit and plans and have continually followed through on all promises. Their pricing and materials are excellent, communication is easy, and their work on our masonry and the demolition and rebuilding of our porch has been superb.
These guys get it right the first time, and having worked with many contractors in the past, I know what a rarity that is. I will happily hire them again for any work we may need in the future, and highly recommend them to anyone currently considering their services.
