Testimonials

On 5/8/2026 Chris Rendall had this to say:
Mike is down to earth and has great ideas on how to maxamize every decision. Whether that be changing a small area to a spice drawer or taking out a soffet. He suggested the drawer where I could put my garbage (so good) NOW.... I dont have before pictures but let's say the kitchen was not updated since the house was built. They absolutely smashed it. Quick, clean and no hassles. Oh yeah, they cut those two huge look throughs in the kitchen walls and made the island. Wow, just wow. Thank you Shay and your crew!! See you in a couple weeks when you install our new flooring!! Dont waste your time- just call Mike

On 5/2/2026 Ben Pratt had this to say:
We purchased a home in Antioch and had SHAY Construction remodel our bathroom, basement and flooring throughout….love it all. Great local business, clear thorough communication from start to finish, delivered exactly what we dreamed our first home would be. I would give them 10 stars if I could, thanks SHAY Construction, we will definitely call you for all our future projects

On 4/25/2026 Romney Dodd had this to say:
If you are looking for a company that focuses on communication, quality, and professionalism then Shay Construction is as far as you need to go. We used them for a tile job in a church basement bathroom and they exceeded all our expectations. I'm sure this was a small job to them, but they treated it like it was a full renovation. From the bid process to the final inspection everything was above board and communicated with us. Two things stand out to me, not because they were big things, but because they were small things that they treated as big things. 1. The first set of tiles that were tried fit and could have been made to work, but since they didn't fit without lots of finagling, they went out and picked up new tiles that fit AND matched even better. We didn't ask for this, it just didn't look "right" to them so they addressed it, and 2. We had to keep a door open, and lots of leaves got blown into the hallway. I figured I'd just sweep everything up once they'd left, but I came out of the office and everything was cleaner than I'd left it. Simple attention to detail, great communications, and professionalism throughout the whole process, great job!

On 4/18/2026 Julie Jelinek had this to say:
I recently had a media wall built by Shay Construction in Antioch, Illinois, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Mike truly executed my vision exactly the way I wanted—it actually exceeded all of my expectations. The craftsmanship and professionalism are outstanding. Mike and his team did excellent work from start to finish. They were respectful of my home, kept the work area clean throughout the project, and left everything spotless when the job was completed. Mike is definitely my go-to contractor moving forward. I already have several more projects in mind and look forward to working with him again. I highly recommend Shay Construction to anyone looking for quality work and a great experience!

On 4/11/2026 Scott Shaffer had this to say:
They did a great job on finishing our basement. Mike and Joe were professional, responsive, and respectful. The basement turned out beautiful. The added bonus is that they are truly nice people. I would highly recommend them!
