"Having worked with Joe to build our dream home was an absolute pleasure and joy for myself and my entire family. Picking a builder was an emotional and personal decision. We worked closely together and in the end we chose Joe, because of his integrity, honesty, and patience. While I travel most weeks, Joe worked closely with myself remotely and regardless of the number of days/times required to meet, was always available to meet on our schedule to make sure we made all decisions on time and without fail. The work he did is of the finest quality and his professionalism was by far greater than any service provider I’ve worked with both professionally or personally. We’ve since then used Joe for other projects and would immediately without fail recommend him for any/all endeavors he should choose to pursue in the future."

I know Joe through work that he did/oversaw on my behalf. Worked directly with Joe on the design and complete renovation of my kitchen, including layout, flooring, cabinets, appliances, etc. He communicated regularly throughout the process, and was open to working collaboratively, resulting in a kitchen that works perfectly for me! End result was beautiful! Work was high quality and lasting quality -- to this day, I have no problems with the work. He is professional, an excellent communicator, delivered the highest level of client service, had a great relationship with vendors and those performing the work, and most importantly, got the project done, on time and exceeding my expectations. From personal experience, I would highly recommend Joe.

"Working with Joe Glasder was a terrific experience. His design for our addition was first rate and I cannot imagine any better way to have done the job. His demolition crew were a hard working bunch of guys. His HVAC guys were highly skilled, creative guys and a delight to work with. Joe saved us money. We are very pleased with the part Joe played in our home addition project. If we do another project we will call Joe first."

"I had short-listed J. Scott based on referrals from local remodelers in McHenry County.  After 1-2 initial meetings with the company president, I quickly realized that they would be my go-to team for my basement remodeling projects. J. Scott delivered EVERYTHING on-time, on-or-under-budget, and at the highest level of craftsmanship. I would strongly and without hesitation recommend them to anyone for first-rate remodeling projects."

"Worked with Joe Glasder on several house enhancement projects. Full basement build-out is beautiful and functional. He was pleasant to work with and helped turn our vision into reality!" 

LEWIS STEVERSON

"Joe finished my basement and did a spectacular job. The work was done timely and well. We were working with an electronics specialist who was installing "smart" technology throughout the house, including the basement, so Joe had to coordinate all of his activities with this company as well. It all went seamlessly and I could not be happier with the work."

"Joe has great attention to details and amazing craftsmanship. He also has an eye for design, both interior and exterior. He keeps up with the trends. As an interior design professional, I was very impressed when I saw the level of details of the trim molding in the Francisco House. It definitely added elegance to the spaces. A builder who has an eye for design is exactly who you want to work with. You can be guaranteed that unexpected, on-the-job changes will not turn out to be a disaster."

Kendra Rogocki

"Joe designed and finished our basement. He worked closely with me on the design and had ideas that made the basement seem more like a normal floor of our house rather than a basement. Joe’s attention to detail was phenomenal as well as his ability to take my ideas and make them happen. The finished product is better than we expected, and I enjoyed working with Joe. He came highly recommended to us, and now I highly recommend him to friends and family looking for a general contractor."
