Design-Build Advantage
Turn Key is a design-build firm, not just a general contractor. Our in-house design team creates layouts, 3D renderings, and complete specifications before construction begins. Our three-phase process ensures every decision is made, every material is selected, and every cost is locked before demolition day. Material selections happen at our Lombard showroom.
This model eliminates the miscommunication and change orders that plague projects where design and construction are handled by separate companies. Read more about why homeowners choose Turn Key.
