Services

TRG Construction (The Restoration Group) specializes in both planned and unplanned structural repairs and restoration to multi-family, residential home and commercial buildings in the Chicagoland surrounding areas.

Planned Repairs and Restoration

As structures age, they can deteriorate. As that happens, planned repairs and restoration keep the properties safe and viable. Planned repairs and restoration also help maintain and even improve the value of multi-family homes.

Planning structural work in a multi-family development is usually the responsibility of condominium association boards working with property managers rather than individual home owners. TRG Construction has often proven to be the efficient and economical choice for such work because of its all-encompassing services and experience working sensitively in spaces occupied by residents.

Typical planned repairs and restoration needs of aging multi-family buildings include:

• Structural settlement: When structures settle, balconies can become unlevel. Settling also may cause decks and balconies to no longer be fastened securely to their buildings. Sometimes the column footings become unstable.
• Wood deterioration: The weather in the Chicago suburbs eventually takes its toll on wood structures. Wood substrates on decks and balconies may begin to rot or decay. Columns can deteriorate. These issues often lead to settling and structural instability.
• Aging and decay: Time passes. Age takes its toll on all things. Whether it is cupping or warping wood, loose decking components, failing fasteners, cracked concrete or unstable railings and stairs, wear and tear can pose a safety hazard over time.

What can TRG Do to Solve These Problems?

TRG’s experienced project managers and field crew carefully preplan every aspect of the project and collaborate with client property managers. TRG addresses all detail from scheduling, hours of operation, safety, traffic, noise and dust control.

Then TRG’s experienced crews go to work to solve problems and restore multi-family home residences. Structural repairs and renovations can include:

• Complete structural removal and replacement
• Selective demo and repairs

• Hand rail repair or replacement
• Stair system repair or replacement

Unplanned Repairs and Restoration

When the unthinkable happens such as a uncommon event one does not want to be fumbling through the phone book or searching the internet for someone to help. For peace of mind, a responsible property manager wants to know who to call and what to expect, both immediately and in the long-term.

During the past sixteen years TRG has provided this 24-hour emergency helpline to many multi-family home developments, homeowners and businesses throughout the Chicago area. So many properties rely on TRG because it is the only company they need to call. TRG services start with a need, a call to respond and then continue through an assessment, on to rebuilding and work right through to the finishing touches. In addition, the experienced  team works with the property manager, and the insurance company when there is a loss for both the condominium association and the individual resident to handle all aspects of the the needed repair.
