What makes your business unique to the Channahon area?
We’ve built over 20 subdivisions and over 5,000 homes. We have two active developments here in Channahon – we think building here is a terrific choice for our business and our customers. We love Channahon.
What would you like Channahon area residents to know about your business?
We are rated one of the most energy efficient builders in Channahon and we’re environmentalist at heart. Whether it’s our efforts to reduce waste, tree preservation or having the highest HERS ratings for any builder in the area – we care deeply about our environment and want to leave the earth a better place.
What do you enjoy most about doing business in Channahon?
One word: Community. Many communities boast that they have a sense of community, but this is particularly true in Channahon. Whether it’s the friendliness of the Village staff, or John over at Jewel getting us something peculiar we need, or having a special meeting with a vendor at Pescolino Osteria – we think Channahon is unlike any other. Oh, and we love sending folks who aren’t from the area over to Mac’s…who doesn’t love grass fed beef?
Do you have any advice for new business owners?
Yes, answer the phone (and emails) and have fun! We’ve never met a business owner who failed that was responsive to their customers and really enjoyed what they were doing. And if you make a mistake, be humble and own it!
When you’re not working, where in Channahon do you like to spend your time?
The Four Rivers Environmental Center! What an amazing preservation with great trails, massive trees and great bird watching. We did mention we love the environment, right?
