"Our project turned out better than we expected and as things were going along, we added more projects. Patryk, Greg and their team did a fantastic job. They were always so nice to work with, even suggesting things which was helpful. They never left a project until they thought it was perfect. We did a full kitchen remodel, even closing off a window to move a fridge and pantry to the other side to allow more cabinets and much needed counter space. They widen the entrance and the kitchen seems so much bigger. We think it’s Beautiful! They did laminated floors throughout the first floor, painted all walls and new baseboards. They created a wine bar which was just a cubby hole. They put in a pantry like cubby hole in our laundry room and added cabinets and above wall unit. One of the projects we had them add is new wooden stairs to the 2nd floor, white spindles and railing that curves instead of a wall and laminate floors on the 2nd floor. Other odd and ends that they never hesitated to do. We appreciate all they have done in our home, To us, it’s amazing how nice it is and how it should have been all the years we have lived here. Its exciting to show it off, it feels like a new house. These guys are amazing and would definately recommend them to anyone. Very reliable and easy to get in contact with when needed.

Anix, Inc. is a General Contractor and a family owned, operated, designed and built company for Illinois. We pride ourselves in High Quality Craftsmanship from New Construction to Remodeling to Handyman services. When we come out to your home to give you an estimate, we will speak to You regarding your thoughts and ideas and then design a custom layout for You. Unlike a big company, where you deal with a salesman, who has no real construction experience, then deal with an array of others, you are not familiar with, and who may not fully understand your ideas, I will stay on the job until it is finished to your satisfaction, being done properly and in a timely manner. I will not tolerate anything, but quallity from the people, who work for my company. We use just licensed subcontractors. Since we are a small company you will pay less with us. We don't have any large overheads. You will receive high quality craftsmanship at a lower cost to you. On a typical job, you can save up to 30% the same work at a more affordable cost. And because we are a small company, you may have to wait a week or two for a construction starting date. The sooner you schedule your free estimates and make your decision, the sooner we can begin working. We're located in a Northwest Suburbs of Chicago.We're Licensed, Bonded and Insured. Your satisfaction is my goal and your happy smile, when you see the finished project, is what I strive for.

"Our project turned out beautiful! I want to preface this by saying this was not the first time we used Joe (Anix) for a home project. Two years ago we hired him to update a house our son had purchased. We we so impressed with his work then (I did write a review for that job), that we immediately thought of him when we purchased this downsize house for us. When he came out to see the house, he went room to room with my husband and me to see what we were wanting quotes on. We ended up putting up wainscoting in dining room and hallway, adding crown molding to several rooms on the main floor and changing out base boards. Painting all trim and all rooms on main floor, 4 bedrooms, 3 baths and basement. Painting all inside doors. They painted the kitchen cabinets and 2 bathroom cabinets a satin paint. They replaced faucets and lighting in those areas as well. Kitchen and 2 baths had new quartz installed and backsplash in the kitchen. They built a media cabinet (from a picture that I had found) on a full wall for a large TV with custom shelving and cabinets. They updated the fireplace by putting a shiplap wood extending to the ceiling with added crown molding. They replaced the tile surround on the face of the fireplace and on the floor inlay in front. New fanlights in 4 bedrooms and family room. TV wall mounts put in 2 rooms and 1 in basement. Updated all main floor and upstairs recessed lights with new led recessed. Updated all fire detectors to code electrical throughout. Changed outdoor light fixtures on front porch, back porch and garage. Painted front door and installed door knocker. We wanted the oak banister stained and the spindles painted white. Joe mentioned putting in black iron balusters might be more cost effective than trying to paint the oak white. In the meantime, we asked about pulling up the carpet on the stairs and staining them to match the floor -- and, so he did. Lastly, we changed the balusters to nickel instead or the black, and they look amazing! Everything looks better than we could imagined. Originally when we were looking to downsize, my husband was more interested in the homes that were already updated and much more costly. I told him that if we found a house with good layout and in the same neighborhood we wanted to live in, that I'd help him update it to look as good as the other homes that he fell in love with. He is so happy with the work Joe and his group have done for us. We haven't fully moved in yet, but we can't wait to enjoy our new home. Joe is kind, considerate, organized, and he is a gentleman. He cleans up the work area everyday better that I clean my house, and he finds time to answer any emails promptly. His team is the same; they are true professionals. They are helpful in so many ways. We have lived in many cities and we have never come into contact with a construction company like Anix. We plan to use him again for other projects."

Garbage disposals last around 10 years when properly maintained. If your unit is getting close to that age or repair costs are increasing, it might be time to consider a replacement. Regular maintenance and careful use can help maximize your garbage disposal's performance and help it reach its maximum lifespan.
There are several signs to watch for that indicate your garbage disposal needs to be replaced. Replacement may be necessary if it doesn't work even though it's properly connected, the blades are worn and causing delays in operation, a persistent foul odor that won't go away, or leaks coming from the bottom due to a compromised seal. If you're experiencing any of these issues, it might be time to consider getting a new garbage disposal to keep your kitchen running smoothly.
A plumber or handyperson can install your garbage disposal if the electrical connections are already in place. If you need additional electrical work, you'll also need to hire a qualified electrician to handle the rest of the job. Hiring local professionals ensures the installation is safe and up to code.
It’s important to avoid putting certain items down the drain to keep your garbage disposal running smoothly and avoid clogs. Expandable foods like pasta, rice, oatmeal, and bread can swell and cause blockages. Coffee grounds, grease, fats, and oils can accumulate and create clogs. Hard items such as meat bones, nuts, and fruit pits can damage the disposal blades. Eggshells, potato peels, and fibrous vegetables such as celery, pumpkin, corn husks, artichokes, onion skins, and asparagus can wrap around the blades or obstruct the pipes.
Not every sink is suitable for the installation of a garbage disposal. The compatibility of the sink with the disposal depends on the material and structural integrity. While many standard sinks support these units, fireclay sinks are prone to cracking under the added stress and should not be used. Confirm that your sink can securely accommodate the disposal before installation.
Choosing the correct size garbage disposal depends on your household size and how much waste you produce. A 1/3–1/2 horsepower unit should be sufficient for households with one to two people. If your household consists of three to six people, a 1/2–3/4 horsepower unit is recommended. FA3/4–1 horsepower model will be necessary. For larger households of five to eight people
