Element Worx LLC

We put off our project for twelve years because we suffered from FOC. (fear of contractors) A friend of ours mentioned Element Worx and I’m happy to say, we made the right choice. I did not think there was any hope for the project we wanted to tackle, but I was proved wrong. Now, every time I walk into that room, I still feel like I’m in the wrong house. Brett was prompt and patient regarding any concerns I had. He also has a great aesthetic sense and had some wonderful ideas. His subs also came up with fabulous ideas of their own. The job was completed in the time frame we were given and stayed on budget. We are very happy with the end result and I would highly recommend Element Worx.

Brett helped with a major kitchen gut & remodel at our house. His initial proposal was thorough and the team worked fast and showed up every day. Brett was also very receptive to our comments and easy to communicate with. As in any project, small things came up but he addressed everything quickly. He made sure his team had everything they needed to avoid stalling the work. He took our feedback about cleaning debris in stride and respectfully. It was a real pleasure to work with Brett!

Brett Williams was a great partner to work with for our kitchen renovation and mudroom and family room addition. In addition to being a great project manager in terms of accurate budgeting and managing timelines and a skilled group of sub-contractors...he has an excellent sense of design. He was always available to answer questions and talk through options and the pros and cons of different approaches. This is the second time we've worked with Element Worx (they did a master suite project in 2016) and I hope to work with Brett and team again on future projects.

Brett and his team did a fantastic job transforming our unfinished dungeon into a truly wonderful space for the entire family. They worked tirelessly, adding personal touches and custom carpentry at no extra cost. The project was finished on time and on budget and we could not be happier with the end result. I highly recommend Element Worx.

Brett redid our kitchen in January. We knocked out a wall, redid plumbing, and added support. He was thorough, and completely on project schedule. The new space is absolutely beautiful. His entire crew was great to work with! Brett knows old homes and was able to work with all of the quirks that come with them. Always pleasant, always prompt, and so easy going. He made the entire process so easy!

We recently hired Element Worx to build a pergola and fire pit in our backyard. Brett took our ideas & input and made a truly one of kind design. We are very happy! Element works was timely, budget friendly, and easy to communicate with.

High quality work and has a great aesthetic sense. Did not stray from budget. Did our garage with a french drain and a dormer.

Love our kitchen and the stellar craftsmanship. Brett thought of great solutions for a pantry. His team was professional, timely and detail oriented. Couldn’t be happier!

We are VERY pleased with our new fireplace and built-in surrounding bookshelves. Brett was attentive and creative, helping us solidify our ideas for design and finishes. He noticed existing details in our home and suggested ways to make the new addition fit in seamlessly and match, as if it been a historical element and not a new build. He was patient with all our questions, not to mention friendly and punctual. His team did great work, were timely, and kept everything clean. We have gotten loads of comments from friends and family about how well the new fireplace/mantle fits into our home and style, and how it looks like it belongs there and could be original to the house. This is exactly what we were going for, and we couldn't be happier with this project.

I have worked with Brett and Element Worx for years and they have done a number of projects in my Victorian home in Oak Park. Every project has come out great. The best part is that Brett is so familiar with these old homes that he can make terrific suggestions about how to expand our original ideas into outstanding results. He re-did our kitchen last year and it's absolutely magnificent, in part because he made some suggestions that turned it from a beautiful kitchen into a showcase kitchen. Element Worx has been terrific to work with and Brett and his crew are there when they say they will be and do the work on time and perfectly every time. They do not come cheap but the results are definitely worth it. For full disclosure, I also am his neighbor and his friend and delighted to be both!

Element Worx opened up my front porch and added a mud room. We're thrilled with the results and Brett Williams provided the value engineering and attention to detail that made both projects blend into our home seamlessly. Would highly recommend him for any design/build project!

Brett (Element Worx) was the contractor we chose to demolish and rebuild our sunroom. We are in a historic district, and Brett is used to navigating such regulations. He and his people are personable, responsible, talented, and unobtrusive, even when performing work that you would think turns your life upside down. Nothing like that! Brett takes personal pride in details and had suggestions to improve things along the way. We took most of them. We are not disappointed, in fact we are delighted. I highly recommend Element Worx!
