Reviews of local pros in Plainfield, Illinois

Had these folks remodel three bathrooms for us in 2021 and into 2022.
There are problems in each of the bathrooms that we have been finding on a routine basis. We end up hiring others to come in and fix the issues.

Whole thing has been a disaster, just a disaster.

Craftsmanship is lacking when it comes to details. This time it is the faucet that was not installed correctly and leaked through to our basement.

Not advising to completely avoid them but am advising to be very leery and question everything they do.

Tranquility did a complete basement finishing for our family. From start to finish they were professional, helpful, and not pushy the entire process. They were flexible with timing, decisions, and finishing materials, which allowed us to create our ideal basement. Highly recommend them for you home finishing/remodel needs.

We had such a great experience with Tranquilty beginning to end. In the beginning we didn’t know exactly how we wanted our basement to come together. Ryan was able to take all of our conversations and transform them into a beautiful design. Elliot and his team brought that dream design to life! Both Ryan and Elliot were always available, responsive, answered any crazy question we threw at them and even through a pandemic they finished our basement without delay! We are grateful for our beautiful new basement and will definitely return to Tranquilty for projects in the future!

Tranquility Builders are an amazing company to work with! They came in this time to do a small repair on a problem created by another contractor. I was a nervous wreck, and Bev immediately put my mind at ease. Bev and her team were fast, professional, and overall wonderful to work with. Thanks, Tranquility Team!

We highly recommend Tranquility Builders. They have been with us for remodeling projects for most of the rooms in our home over the last several years. Bev, Jim and Elliott Totsch are very professional and have always treated our home with respect. They have great ideas and suggestions for things we had not even considered. They are with you every step of the process from design, to construction and through selection of finishes.They always respond to texts and phone calls in a timely manner. Our recent project was a three season room which far exceeded our expectations We really appreciate their attention to detail and insightful design ideas. They have help us a create a beautiful home.

Tranquility made our kitchen dreams come true! For 22 years, we lived with a chopped up kitchen that was cramped and outdated. Tranquility knocked down walls and opened up the possibilities. Our kitchen is the wide open, beautiful space we've always wanted. They also created an attractive and useful mud room for us. Bev gave us great design ideas and took the time to shop with us and show us various options for counter tops, cabinetry, back splash, flooring, windows, etc. The entire Tranquility team and subs were efficient, responsive, and completely on schedule (even early!)...and on budget. Several of our friends in the neighborhood have used Tranquility and highly recommended them to us. We would highly recommend them to any and all! Fair prices, high quality work. What more could you ask for?

Awesome experience. We found Tranquility at a home improvement show, and decided to move forward with them because they are a family business. The attention to detail was fantastic and the concern for the family and rest of the house while work was being done was on point. We have more projects down the road and will definitely use Tranquility.

Tranquility Builders did a complete redesign/remodel of our small townhouse kitchen. What a difference! They came up with a design that made great use of a confined space, making it so much more attractive, efficient, and user-friendly. Their talented staff was friendly, responsive, and on-time!

My family just completed our 2nd home project with Tranquility. I could not be happier with the results. I appreciated their professionalism, honesty in pricing & original proposal, and ran into very few problems throughout the project. Even more so, I never worried about having Tranquility in my home, even when I was at work. Tranquility makes you feel as valued as if they were working in a family member's home. I guarantee that any other projects that I take on will be with Tranquility.

When in doubt, you can always rely on the tried & true advice of "What would Bev recommend?" :)

Tranquility was great to work with. Elliot, Bev, and the entire tranquility team did an excellent job designing our bathrooms and providing top notch work throughout the process. We would recommend them to anyone looking for a home remodel project.

I will definitely recommend Tranquility for any home improvement job you may be thinking about. To begin with, Bev is very thorough, and honest, with her estimate. She gave us all in's and out's on every choice we had to make. She ensured we made an educated decision about our project every step of the way. Jim is fantastic, he is a pleasure to work with, especially when it comes to stones, granites etc. Last but not least, Elliott, he was the action man for us, to get the job done. He pays attention to detail and does not hesitate to call his people back if any job is not done per our (customer) satisfaction. All in all, its my experience that Tranquility team is very customer oriented and made sure we are happy every step of the way.

Major renovations while living in the chaos can be daunting. From the moment Ryan came to talk over our design ideas, we felt quality and pride in what Tranquility could offer us.

After design with Bev and Ryan, progress began with walls coming down safely and work progressing through Elliott’s project management, the Sean’s muscle and follow-up, Jim’s help in selecting the right stone and outstanding sub-contractors; everything in these uncertain times kept rolling to completion.

Reno’s aren’t easy, but we always knew Tranquility and their quality work, with friendly and thorough sub-contractors would get the job done. Especially in the middle of COVID-19!

We love our new home and recommend Tranquility for any of your renovation or new builds. They care, as only a family working together can care. Give them a call. You’ll be happy you did!

We had a great experience with Tranquility Builders remodeling our kitchen and bathrooms. They are very professional and we appreciated their attention to detail. Bev has great design ideas and she helped us make design selections that exceeded our expectations. Everything turned out amazing and we love how they transformed our home. We highly recommend Tranquility Builders.

After doing quite a bit of research looking for contractors in the greater Plainfield area to do some work on our newly purchased home, we found Tranquility and reached out to quote an installation for a new Kitchen Backsplash, Bathroom Vanity and Mirror removal, and new vanity and mirror install. Our main contact Elliot was extremely responsive both via phone and text and was very flexible with getting the project scheduled around other contractors that would be working at the house over a 2 week period. Josh performed the Vanity and Mirror demo and was able to salvage the mirror and left the whole area extremely clean. Gustavo did a fantastic job working in the kitchen installing white subway tiles throughout. I am a stickler for details and the quality of everyone's work showed throughout each project. We then worked with Sean for the finishing touches and re-installation of the vanity and electrical in the kitchen and I can't say enough great things about him. He had to deal with a few electrical issues during the project and he handled what was a frustrating problem with an amazing attitude, he was awesome to talk to, and is an incredible representation of the company as a whole - great people doing great work. Any minor hiccups that occurred (missing parts I didn't have for some of the install, a faulty electrical outlet) were handled swiftly and without frustration, and my wife and I couldn't be happier with the end result. Big thanks to everyone at Tranquility for the work they put in to make our first home purchase and remodeling experience awesome!

We had a great experience with Tranquility builders. You hear many horror stories about how home remodeling, but that was not our story. We had our master bathroom redone. They were prompt, attentive to our requests, and kept to the timeline for the build as we had hoped. The people they brought in to do the work all did a great job. In the end, we were really satisfied. I would recommend them to anyone who has home improvement needs!

My company has worked with Tranquility Builders for years and have always had the best experience. I work in the plumbing wholesale business so we work closely together to help homeowners pick their plumbing fixtures. The Totschs treat everyone like family. They are kind, caring, and they listen to what you have to say. From the professional standpoint, there are just certain people you know you are going to have a good experience with every single time, and Tranquility is that company. You would be making the right decision to use this company for your building needs.

Tranquility was a pleasure to work with.
Unlike other house renovation stories we've heard in the past, they actually finished the project on-time. We would receive a text the night before informing us who would be arriving the following morning (carpenter, painter etc...) and when, and lo and behold they would arrive on time.
They had some great ideas regarding kitchen design that we utilized, and we're glad we listened to them.
Their contractors were also great to deal with and had a "can-do" attitude.
We're very happy with our "new" house, and we would highly recommend Tranquility to anyone.

We had a great experience with the entire Totsch family as they helped do a complete renovation of our master bathroom. They oversaw a complete transformation of the space into a luxurious bathroom that makes us feel like we're living in a hotel.

There were two things I liked best about Tranquility. The first was their communication: Each night, we'd get a text from Elliott outlining what work would take place the next day and when the workers would be arriving. If you've ever worked with a contractor, you know this is not always something that happens. It was really appreciated.

The second was the attention to detail. If anything needed an adjustment or touch-up, Tranquility was happy to see to it. I've never worked with anyone that did a better job of following up on bucket-list items. They weren't happy until we were happy!

We really enjoyed working with Tranquility and hope to do so in the future!

Working with Tranquility Builders was a dream! We had never hired a contractor before and felt quite apprehensive about the whole process. From our first meeting with Bev, we felt heard and at ease. The whole Tranquility team provided us with top-notch work and were so pleasant and responsive to work with. We had a rotting back patio that was supporting our house so we knew we needed to hire a contractor with the experience to do the job right the first time. In addition, they did a fantastic job on remodeling our kitchen. What a pleasure it was to work with them, and their whole crew. Would highly, highly recommend them to anyone!

In a world full of contractors it's hard to know who you can trust. Tranquility will take care of your house as if it's their own. Two years after the project wrapped up an electrical surge in the area caused our main breaker to fail and created a dangerous situation while we were out of town. We called Elliott on the morning of July 4th in hopes he could help and within two hours the breaker was replaced and power restored to the house, free of charge. Thank you Tranquility for building us a beautiful home and keeping us safe!

We couldn't be more pleased with the work Tranquility recently completed for us. Our laundry room went from a chaotic and messy space to an organized and functional mudroom, and our master bathroom remodel is gorgeous and inviting. Abbi was creative with the use of our space and provided 3D renderings to help us visualize the design. Elliott, Sean and the rest of the team were incredibly accommodating and willing to go to any length to give us exactly what we wanted. Customer service and quality of work are top notch. We can't wait to use Tranquility for our next project!
