We used Jeremy Lew and Associates to add an addition and complete an extensive remodel on our 1926 colonial. They handled everything, from design through completion, without issue and got us back in our home on time. The design and workmanship was excellent, maintaining the original character of the home while still adding modern touches. The entire experience was simply great, we had constant communication with everyone involved and quick resolutions when the inevitable issue did arise. Having Robert, Victor, and Phil (our project manager) available at every step helped...Read More

We couldn't be happier with the house that Jeremy Lew & Associates built for us this past year. It is above and beyond what our expectations were when we first met to talk about the project. The entire experience from meeting the team, to designing the house, and the actual construction was an absolute pleasure. We never felt anything but comfortable the entire time and would most definitely recommend this team to build your dream home. They are total professionals who deliver a high end product.

We could not be happier with the amazing job Jeremy Lew and Assoc. did building our dream home. Victor, Robert and the entire team were with us from the beginning process of plans, to the tear down, through the build, until the final light bulb was installed. They were knowledgeable on getting licenses and dealing with city ordinances, and kept our house on schedule. They were, and continue to be, available whenever we have questions, and are there to help. Our home is our very favorite place to be and we thank the Lew brothers for their professionalism and commitment to us.

We did a complete first floor renovation of our 1929 English Tudor, and we are thrilled that we used Jeremy Lew & Associates to do the work. They were fantastic from start to finish--they were trustworthy and so easy to work with, they respected our budget, and the project was completed within the timeframe that was given to us. Because our house is so old, there were a lot of structural and design challenges. We had to completely update the plumbing, electrical and HVAC--in some areas, radiators were removed and replaced with heated floors, but the old and new systems have worked together seamlessly. Victor created...Read More

We hired Jeremy Lew to remodel our 1939 home in Wilmette 10 years ago.. We worked with an Architect for the plans. The Lew's were a pleasure to work with from start to finish. We heard the the horror stories from our friends about working with contractors and did approach this project with some trepidation. Fortunately these stories were not our story. Our Project Manager was a great communicator and kept us in the loop every step of the way. As the crew found some surprises (expected with old home) we were told and given options about how to proceed. We can not be happier about how our addition looked upon...Read More

Working with Jeremy Lew & Associates was a dream. Robert Lew was extremely detail oriented and took care of every facet of our project. We were the 2nd mikvah project JLA has worked on, and I have to imagine they are expert mikvah builders at this point. Robert worked with our rabbi to ensure all Jewish law requirements were met and worked with us to ensure our project was done on time and on budget. I would recommend JLA to anyone looking for a design and build firm for a similar project.

We began this journey in 2011 and contracted Jeremy Lew & Associates for architectural work for our home extension. They were consummate professionals throughout the process and provided the drawings to bid out. Fortunately, they are also builders so were in the running to get the job. Their prices weren't the cheapest but also not the most expensive and they will tell you that up front. However, the "you get what you pay for" idiom holds so true for construction. We decided to hold off on the work for a few years and re-visted the idea in 2015. We had few changes that we wanted to incorporate and Victor...Read More

We worked with Jeremy Lew & Associates to renovate our entire fitness space at College Park Athletic Club. From start to finish, they were professional, timely, and a pleasure to work with. It's rare to find a group that can manage so many moving parts and deliver a project on time and on budget. They have our trust and our gratitude--we have already hired them for our next project!

We first used Jeremy Lew & Associates to build a large, complex deck off the back of our house leading over the ravine (over $100K job). It was so incredible, we offered them the chance to bid on the renovation of our 1931 Spanish Mediterranean (of which we were ready to pull the trigger with another vendor). However, Jeremy Lew & Assoc professionalism, attention to detail and most of all COMMUNICATION sealed the deal for us. We could not be happier and would absolutely use them again!

I have had the pleasure of working with Jeremy Lew & Associates for the last 20 years. Professional & ethical are 2 of the man words you can use to describe the family and their entire staff. It has been a privilege to have a customer like Jeremy Lew & Associates and I would highly recommend them for your home remodeling needs.

Great group of people to work with! Family owned business and I had the pleasure to work with Robert and Victor Lew. Like any big project, there were a couple of surprises. However, there was great communication and true empathy when we realized we were going to miss our summer due to set backs that were very unexpected (ex. The house had no foundation!) We plan to use them again for a third floor addition to the same house. Great quality, good attention to detail and true professionals.

We are extremely happy with the results of our kitchen, family room and master bathroom remodel. Having the designer, the architect and the contractor all under one roof made the whole remodeling project much less stressful. We would recommend Jeremy Lew and Assoc to anyone looking to remodel their house. They were a joy to work with.

We contracted with Jeremy Lew & Assoc. for architectural plans for an addition to our home. We worked with Victor Lew who was professional, responsive, attentive, and a very good listener. He incorporated everything we wanted and made the design beautiful.

We were thrilled with the work that Jeremy Lew completed on our home remodel. Our house has some challenges from a design standpoint and Victor was fantastic with coming up with innovative and practical designs. Then Robert took over with the construction plans. It was all very turnkey and they made the process enjoyable. We stayed on time and on budget. We could not be happier with the results and the continued follow up from the company.

It has been a number of years since our addition was completed, yet a week does not go by when I don't think of the fantastic results we live in now and through our entire project with Jeremy Lew and the entire crew. We all have heard the horror stories of home additions...things go wrong which jacks up the cost out of budget...contractors don't show up for days at a time....the completion date is a mystery.... Let me say that NONE of these were ever an issue. From deciding on which plan to go forward with, to breaking ground, to completion, we always knew what was going on today, and what would be...Read More

C Spar Designs, Inc, continues to have the pleasure of working directly with Robert and Victor on many remodel and new construction projects for the last 15+ years. Everyone is very knowledgeable, fair and respectful with every design and construction phase. Collaborating with the design team is key, a successful step any clients' can count on, with Jeremy Lew & Associates. The result is a beautiful, long lasting, custom home or remodel project.

We are happy to recommend Jeremy Lew and Assoc. We designed and built our new home with them last year. They were professionals from start to finish and we are very happy with the outcome. Having had no experience in designing or building a home we were not sure what to expect. They made the experience as pain free and as pleasant as possible.

There isn't a day that goes by that we do not think about how happy and thrilled we are with our addition built by Jeremy Lew!! That made our DREAM HOUSE come true!!! It was certainly an overwhelming project for us since we knew nothing about construction or design!! But Jeremy Lew had all the patience in the world, working with us every step of the way! We never felt pressured or rushed---so very important when one has so many decisions to make. We definitely got our money's worth and will highly recommend Jeremy Lew to everyone who is considering an addition to their home. Their professionalism and...Read More

We fully expected to be stressed living through an addition (family room plus kitchen expansion) that would leave us without a kitchen for an extended period of time. Jeremy Lew had a very professional team that made this process much easier. All contracted work crews were also respectful of our home and our neighborhood. We did end up about 20 percent above projected cost which is pretty normal from what we researched. We felt there were delays in getting our project started once we signed the contract, but once it did start, the project was completed within the expected period of time. We are so happy with the results and...Read More

I am pleased to recommend Jeremy Lew and Associates and share my overwhelmingly positive experience. I’m not always the easiest person to please. I know this because throughout my life I’ve been called overly-critical or “picky.” When I go to a restaurant, I expect my food to be right the first time and for the service to be outstanding…at a minimum. I should be able to focus on the fun experience I am having with my guests, not being distracted by a waiter that disappeared when we need more bread or a chef that under-cooked my steak. Everything needs to be working in concert. That concerted effort is...Read More

Jeremy Lew and Associates exceeded our expectations during the duration of our 8 month house renovation. From start to finish, the team at Jeremy Lew were professional, fun to work with and most importantly, collaborative. They brought a very complex project in on time...to the day!!!! I have referred the Lew brothers to many friends and sing their praises often.

The whole experience was a real pleasure. Jeremy Lew & Assoc., Inc. came up with a great design for our second-story addition and then executed the building plan in a timely, cost-effective manner. Never had to worry about "lost days" - there was always a full crew of workers on the project. And they do great quality work - very few punch-list items.

We hired Jeremy Lew and Associates after researching our options over a few years. Their firm does a lot of work in our area so we were able to appreciate the quality of their construction and compare it to other projects (done by other firms) in the area. We hired Jeremy Lew and Associates to do a major rehab of our craftsman bungalow as we felt they suited our needs and their philosophy and style matched well with ours. They were very professional, came in within budget, and were extremely accommodating. We spoke with some of their former clients who raved about their experiences and also...Read More

We hired Jeremy Lew & Associates in 2006 after meeting with 3 other contractors. We were very impressed with other work they had done, and felt their style matched our specifications. Jeremy Lew & Associates helped convert our 3 bedroom colonial (with a detached garage), to a 5 bedroom colonial with an attached garage. Robert, Victor, and Wojtek were very accommodating, and completed the work in a timely fashion (which we all know is key to a successful project!). An attestation to their work, is the fact that my in laws hired them shortly after our work was complete! Thank you Jeremy Lew & Associates!

My wife and I hired Jeremy Lew & Assoc in 2005 to do a major renovation on our home. We were living in a three bedroom ranch and we wanted to put up a second level. Often times, these types of renovations are harder on the builder than building a home from the ground up because they often don't know the condition of the home until they get under the hood, or in this case, the walls and floors. Robert and Walter were great to work with. We had to deal with a few things out of our control such as bad weather, a few surprises, and village delays but we were back in our home within nine...Read More

It was a true pleasure working with them. their professionalism, experience, competence, and pleasant demeanor were apparent throughout the entire process. Their efficient workmanship was of the highest standard and they stood behind every last detail, ensuring an enduring and beautiful home which we are proud of and comfortable in.

Initially, Jeremy Lew & Associates did an extensive remodel that included expanding the footprint of our home and building out three floors - including bathrooms and the kitchen. We chose them over a number of other reputable firms because of their creative design ideas and honest approach to quoting the job. That was almost 10 years ago . . . Since then, due to the extremely positive experience we had, we have used them to do every home improvement task we can think of. What was so positive? (1) Excellent product; (2) Smooth and efficient project management; (3) appropriate price.

Jeremy Lew & Assoc. designed and built my dream home. Throughout all the stages of this very large project I was treated as a very important person whose needs should be met in the best possible way. I felt that I could fully trust Robert Lew and Robert Holubek to solve any unexpected problems and obstacles which are common in the building process. I would recommend Jeremy Lew & Assoc to my friends and family. I feel like I made friends with the people who built my house.

After interviewing several other contracting firms we hired the Lew family for our construction/renovation project. We had used another architect but, found Jeremy and Victor's incites very helpful. They paid careful attention to lighting and sight lines that another "higher priced" architect had not seen. We appreciate these changes until today. Robert was a consummate professional. He took the time to get a feel for our interests in terms of style, materials and budget. From start to finish work was on time and on budget. He walked us through the village "appearance committee"...Read More

From our beginnings with the creativity of architect Victor Lew, to the fair and measured bidding process with contractor Robert Lew and finally the efficient, detailed project management of Robert Holubek we were well cared for at every level of our home renovation. In fact, since our completion in 2011 the few issues we've had were met with prompt response. We have recommended the firm in the past and will continue to do...Read More

I cannot say enough good things about working with Robert Lew, as our builder, and his brother Victor, as our architect. We added a master suite to our home and, in the process, reconfigured the entire second floor. I loved that at our first meeting, they looked at our downstairs and said "don't tell us that you intend to touch this part of the house--it's gorgeous." That gave me the confidence right from the start that they were not looking to spend more of our money than we were. The process was a pleasure start to finish. They were creative with ideas, responsive to our calls, reliable in terms of...Read More

From start to finish, Robert Lew and the staff at JL were always thoughtful, honest, creative and willing to go the extra mile during our home renovations. Our family (at the time 5 people, now 6) still appreciates suggestions Robert and Victor made that we implemented (a 3rd story play space, an extra bathroom). We were always kept in the loop about progress and every crew was respectful of our family living in the house in the midst of construction. They also tolerated 3 very curious boys (and 1 curious father) who always had a question for them.The entire project ran smoothly and on...Read More

Victor and Robert Lew and the entire team were professionals from the very start. Their attention to detail and sensitivity to our needs as a family set them apart from others that we've used. They transformed our 100+ year old house into a true home that meets the needs of our family. We would recommend JeremyLew in a heartbeat. We have worked with many contractors in the past and none have lived up to our experience with JeremyLew.

We selected JL to help with a project that turned out to be a total rehabilitation of a 30 year-old downsized home that we recently purchased vs. a “sprucing-up”. Prior to our final contractor selection, we did our due diligence and contacted previous Jeremy Lew clients. We were impressed with the many positive responses we received. From the very beginning of the project with conceptual ideas to actual architectural drawings and construction permits, we felt totally supported by the JL team. During this initial phase of the project we spent fair amount of time with Victor and Robert coming up with a realistic...Read More

Not only did Victor and Robert understand our idea to purchase an old home and enhance it - they gave us architectural and cost options. We bought the house and had a great adventure working with both of them along with their program managers, construction crews and vendors. From getting permits to braining storming options on engineering issues we always felt we got great advice and the expertise needed. They understood what we wanted this house to be. They designed it to exceed our expectations yet within our budget and the house was ready when we needed it to be ready. The neighbors near...Read More
