Remodeling, Construction & Restoration in Aurora, IL

Aurora has every kind of house there is, and we work on every kind — in English or Spanish.

Aurora is a large city with a long history and housing from nearly every era of it. Victorian-era and early-1900s homes in the older neighborhoods near the Fox River, brick bungalows and two-flats, post-war ranches, 1970s splits, and 1990s and 2000s subdivisions on the outer edges. The city reaches across more than one county. There is no single Aurora remodel, which is exactly why we do not price one from a template.

Older Aurora homes carry the issues old houses carry: original plumbing stacks, undersized electrical, plaster and lath, framing that has been cut into for every upgrade since the 1940s, and kitchens and baths sized for a different century. We do plumbing and electrical alongside framing, drywall, tile and finish carpentry, so a kitchen that turns into a structural and mechanical job does not need three more contractors before it is finished.

JGN is owner-operated and bilingual, and that is not a marketing line here — Aurora has a large Spanish-speaking community, and you should be able to ask hard questions about your own house in your own language. Hablamos español. Jesus Guzman walks the project, writes the estimate and runs the crew. Everything is in writing before demolition starts, and the estimate visit is free.

What Aurora homeowners call us for

  • Kitchen and bath remodels in older frame and brick homes
  • Fire, water and storm damage rebuilds through final finish
  • Plumbing and electrical upgrades while walls are open
  • Structural framing repairs and load-bearing wall changes
  • Two-flat and multi-unit interior remodels, unit by unit
  • Roofing, siding and gutter replacement on century-old exteriors

One city, a century and a half of housing

Neighborhood to neighborhood, the scope changes completely. A frame house from the 1890s needs structural care, mechanical upgrades and trim matched by hand. A two-flat needs work sequenced so tenants are not displaced longer than necessary. A post-war ranch opens up easily once the load path is understood. A 2004 subdivision home mostly needs its finishes and exterior replaced. We walk the house before we price it, and we tell you which parts of your list are structural, which are cosmetic and which are about safety.

We are based in Maple Park, and Aurora sits inside our service area to the south, so scheduling an estimate is simple. Call or text, use the form, or message us — in English or Spanish. Jesus comes out himself, looks at the house, and gives you a written estimate at no charge and no obligation. If the honest answer is that the work can wait, that is what you will hear.

Every rating JGN has on Google is a five. It is a small number of reviews, and we would rather point you at the real ones than print a wall of quotes you cannot check — read them yourself, and if we have worked for you, add yours.
