Our Story
My family has been working on homes and buildings across the Chicagoland area since 1982. I grew up visiting my dad’s job sites and helping him with projects around the house; my teenage years were spent painting and stripping wallpaper for my parents’ construction business. My career eventually took a different path, but my interest in the space never left. From remodeling multiple homes of my own, to helping friends and family with theirs, I’ve always loved working in and around homes.
Despite my background and connections, I still experienced the same frustrations many homeowners face: too many vendors, inconsistent communication, unexpected issues, and no clear system for staying ahead of it all. Managing our home always felt reactive and inefficient. I wanted a better way, so I built the company I wished existed.
The idea behind ALLDONE HOME is simple. One trusted partner that knows your home and helps you get all your home projects done. No more endless to-do lists, no more tracking down information and researching vendors every time something breaks, no more shady sales tactics, no more random gig workers showing up.
Your home deserves a long term partner that understands the big picture. We have a doctor for our health, an advisor for our finances; people that know our unique history and goals, help plan for the future, navigate issues big and small, and avoid costly mistakes. Your home should have the same. An expert that gives you peace of mind that one of your biggest investments is being cared for the right way.
My goal is to be that partner for your home. Whether you’re a busy family tackling a growing to-do list, a new homeowner looking for guidance, or simply someone looking for a reliable handyman, we are here to help.
