About Us

Over a decade of trusted construction and remodeling in Chicago, Illinois.

Our Story

Built on Chicago Values

MB Home Additions & Room Additions was founded in Chicago with a single commitment: to provide homeowners with honest, high-quality construction at a fair price. Since our founding, we have completed projects in neighborhoods from Wicker Park and Logan Square to Lincoln Park and Roscoe Village, earning a 5-star rating on Google backed by 20 real client reviews. Every project we take on receives the same level of care whether it is a modest bathroom refresh or a full two-story addition.

Over the past decade, we have built a team of experienced carpenters, finishers, and project managers who live and work in the Chicago area. We understand the city's permit processes, zoning requirements, and the particular construction challenges that come with Chicago's diverse housing stock — from vintage greystones and bungalows to newer coach houses and modern townhomes. Our goal on every project is to deliver a finished product that exceeds your expectations and holds up for generations.

Our Values

Why We Started — and Why We Stay

We started MB Home Additions because we saw too many Chicago homeowners being let down by contractors who overpromised, underdelivered, or disappeared mid-project. We built this company around the opposite: clear communication, written estimates, scheduled timelines, and crews who show up every day until the job is done right.

  • We pull every permit ourselves — no shortcuts, no liability on your property
  • Transparent change-order policy: nothing proceeds without your written approval
  • One-year labor warranty on all construction work performed
