“Dave and Joanna truly care about their clients and their product.  They are both very accessible during the building process, and having Joanna serve as a personal design consultant when making selections is invaluable.  The quality of workmanship is outstanding.  For that reason, we asked them to come back and finish our basement, build a shed, and further enhance our main floor with additional cabinetry and trim work.    Start to finish, building our home was a positive, exciting experience!”

"We highly recommend you consider hiring the Matthies as your builder. They set themselves apart in terms of quality, commitment, service, and timeliness. On top of that, they really care about the end product. I can't even begin to describe how many compliments we have received on the detail, quality and craftsmanship that define the Matthies touch. They should be extremely proud of the homes that will define Downers Grove well after we are all gone."

"In 2004 Matthies Builders built our custom home in Hinsdale. My husband and I love Prairie Style homes and the Frank Lloyd Wright style. Our architect did a fairly good job of bringing our dream to paper. But Dave and his crew really brought our vision to life. Dave literally spent hours and hours redesigning the wood columns and internal woodwork in our home so everything would be authentic Prairie Style. Years later we still ask Dave and Joanna to come back and add touches. They were a pleasure to work with. Their staff was prompt and professional. And their subs were friendly and did beautiful work. Everyone who enters our home comments on the beautiful woodwork and the interesting design. We would recommend Matthies Builders to anyone who is building a home they want to keep for the next 100 years."

"We built our home at the height of the housing boom in 2007. Matthies Builders was our clear choice based on their uncompromising commitment to quality. Our home in Downers Grove is a testament to that commitment. Matthies Builders pricing was competitive (although not lowest), but we believe the price / quality combination they provided gave us the best value for our investment. Matthies Builders paid meticulous attention to detail during every aspect of design and construction of our new home. Building a custom home when you have architectural notions that are unique is a difficult proposition. Building it with Matthies Builders is a dream come true. We asked this wonderful family company to come back to build some "fun" accessory structures in our gardens last year. Once again, Dave and Joanna delivered spectacular results. Stop by and enjoy our dream on the northwest corner of Blanchard and Middaugh!"

"From the first shovel full of dirt to the last paint swipe, building our home with Matthies Builders was pure pleasure. They took our vision and made our dream come true. We have since moved out of state and worked with other builders, but no one will ever come close to our experience with Dave and Joanna."

"We had a wonderful experience working with Matthies Builders. We built our home in 2006 and it turned out beautiful. But the experience along the way is what impressed us the most. The communication from beginning to end was great! They were always accessible and always returned calls and emails. I've heard a lot of stories about the bad experiences people had with builders but I have to say, our experience was exceptional. And the quality of the home they built for us is awesome."
