Three disciplines. One standard.

Historic Restoration
Pre-1940s homes restored with preservation-grade materials. We match original plaster, millwork, and masonry. The work disappears into the house.

Bespoke Additions
Additions designed to look like they were always there. Same rooflines, same proportions, same brick. Your neighbors will not be able to find the seam.

How it works
Six steps. No drama.
- Step 01
Discovery Call
30 minutes. No pressure. We listen to what the house needs and tell you honestly whether we are the right firm for it.
- Step 02
Site Assessment
We document everything before a nail is pulled. Structure, systems, materials, and the details worth saving.
- Step 03
Scope & Estimate
Fixed-price. No surprises. The number we give you is the number you pay.
- Step 04
Material Selection
Our archive of 400+ sources — mills, quarries, salvage yards, and foundries we have worked with for decades.
- Step 05
Build Phase
Weekly owner updates, always. You will never wonder what happened on your site this week.
- Step 06
Final Walk
We don’t close until you’re satisfied. Every punch-list item, signed off together.

From our clients
Word travels quietly.
They told us a number and a date. Both held. After two renovations with other firms, I did not believe that was possible.
Margaret — Lincoln Park
★★★★★
Our 1908 four-square needed someone who understood old houses. They matched plaster profiles by hand. You cannot tell where the original ends and their work begins.
David — Oak Park
★★★★★
The weekly updates were a quiet kind of luxury. Every Friday, photos and a plan for the next week. We never once had to chase them.
Elena — Hyde Park
