Mr R. DeKalb, IL Review Feb 08, 2012 5 star rating
Ken Spears Construction

This was my first time using a contractor and I could not be happier with the outcome (a bathroom renovation.) They were totally professional and highly skilled. When unexpected issues came up they explained them clearly and promptly took care of them. I am forever done with Do-It-Yourself or "friends" helping out on projects. Even the house cat (who they carefully worked around) looked forward to them being here. A very good experience.

I have had several construction projects with Ken Spears Construction, and they've always delivered exactly what they promised. They are always on time, and I couldn't be happier. I am happy to be able to attest to their excellent work.

Comment Easier Than Expected DeKalb, IL Dec 13, 2011

I'd had experience with them in the past, and they delivered what I expected.

Ken Spears Construction

I thought that I got quality windows for a reasonable price from Ken Spears. I think I was most impressed with the way they came through on their install date. It was important to me, as a teacher, that they be in before the end of August because I had to be home. I am glad that they came through on that time frame. My neighbor recommended them and said they made good on their promises, and they do. I had two windows installed last year, and I can speak authentically on the importance of the install date because the other company promised my windows by November 1 and they were installed on Christmas eve. It made me a nervous wreck, but it was out of my control. Ken Spears came through and I was really glad.

The Ken Spears Construction individuals demonstrate a commitment to quality -- in construction, in dealing with us as clients, in supervising the work of subcontractors, and in making sure we are informed of the process, problems, solutions, and lastly, that we are more than satisfied with the work done.

Thorn did a fantastic job with us to figure out what was best for our needs. Also, the supervisor that stayed on when the drywallers and painters came in. He was courteous and great to work with.

Comment Original Design Sycamore, IL Sep 28, 2010

We are so happy with our house now! The new windows have made the house more comfortable and energy-efficient, and the deck looks great, and I'm SO pleased with our new front storm door! A huge improvement all around!

Comment Concern For Needs Sycamore, IL Sep 28, 2010

We can't say enough about how wonderful and helpful Thorn was. He kept us posted about the timeline and costs, and kept all the workmen organized. And Thorn was always patient and encouraging when I would call with another question about the project. We'd hire Ken Spears Construction again in a minute, and that's in large part due to our faith in Thorn.

Comment Employees & Subcontractors DeKalb, IL Apr 07, 2009

This is the first remodeling project that I have ever undertaken. And, even though I really don't have anything to compare against, I found ALL individuals that I interacted with to have gone beyond my expectations.

Comment Recognize Excellence DeKalb, IL Jan 05, 2009

Becky and I appreciate Ken and his staff's outstanding effort to improve our home and garage. They spent lots of time assisting us in reaching a decision that met our budget. The workmen were very professional. Ken spent lots of time with us and rework our plans until it was a correct and met our expectations.

About GuildQuality and our Guildmembers

Homebuilders, remodelers, real estate developers and home services companies pay GuildQuality for customer surveying and performance reporting. We refer to these companies as GuildQuality Members, Guildmembers, or members.

Our service helps Guildmembers monitor customer satisfaction and -- if they choose to publish survey feedback on our public website at guildquality.com -- articulate the quality of their service for prospective customers.

All of the Guildmember information we publish at guildquality.com has been provided to us either by the member (such as pictures of work and biographical information) or by their customers via one of our surveys (customer comments, performance summaries, and reviews).

Surveys, Comments and Reviews

All of the customer feedback that we publish is derived from the customers we survey. Our Guildmembers provide us with their customers' contact information, we conduct the surveys, they receive the feedback, and -- if they have chosen to make their feedback public -- the member's performance report is automatically updated to reflect the response. Members may choose to publish a summary of either all of their feedback or their most recent twelve months of feedback.

In addition to average performance ratings and survey statistics, GuildQuality also publishes two types of customer commentary: Comments and Reviews.

A comment has been provided by a survey respondent in response to any one of the survey questions we ask, and a member may or may not choose to publish it. Often customers provide unsolicited testimonials or compliments, and members can choose to share these comments in their published performance report.

Many Guildmembers choose to participate in our formal review process. These members have added an additional question on their survey: "If you'd like to provide a public review of your experience working with the Guildmember, please share it here." In contrast to comments, which a member selects to have published, we publish all reviews, provided they are at least 30 words long. With each review, we include a one to five star rating provided by the survey respondent.
