I could not be more pleased with both the experience and final product of my kitchen and bathroom renovation. I travel every week for work, and the MK Group crew made this so seamless and easy for me. They proactively made suggestions and recommendations which took what could have been an overwhelming experience, and made it enjoyable. They are excellent communicators, so I never was concerned regarding the timeline or budget.
I am so pleased that I can’t wait to get started on other projects I have been putting off for a couple of years. I highly recommend this creative and professional team.

We are extremely pleased with the design and execution that the MK Group crew provided us from start to finish with the gut rehab of our Chicago condo. Despite not living in the midwest during the project, the MK Design crew collaborated closely with us long distance during the design phase and throughout construction. Plenty of updates, telephone calls, and photos. No surprises! Sulika and her design team were total professionals, offering expertise, flexibility, and attention to material detail. Their craftsmanship was outstanding, and their contractors were courteous and always left the site clean. We always felt we were in great hands throughout the project. We now have a beautiful modern condo that totally meets our needs for years to come.
We highly recommend the MK Group and were so happy we selected them for this major job.

I enjoyed working with you and am so very pleased with the final result. Thank you for the wonderful coordination and smoothness of this project. It couldn’t have been any better. Everyone that came here to work was wonderful.

MK exceeded my expectations in every way. They truly are full service and handle every detail of the process from design, coordination, sourcing materials and construction. It is very hard to find a group that does all aspects of the project with such high quality and professionalism.
Sulika has exceptional taste and made the design and selection process seem easy and enjoyable. Their contractors are the best I have ever worked with. They are professional, perfectionists, on time, highly skilled and just very nice to work with. Our building is very hard to work with and they handled all of that for me.
I highly recommend this group and feel so lucky to have found them.

MK Group Crew provided us with an outstanding bathroom remodeling process – the end result is a luxurious master bath. We expect the same as we begin the process on our guest bath.

We have had many renovations in numerous locations and this was by far one of the best. MK was always responsive with any questions we had and completed the project in a timely manner. They were very respective of our time frame and the necessary interruptions we requested. Since we come in and out of town to this Chicago condo, it was really nice to have them work around our time frames. They worked well with the condominium management and staff, providing all necessary paperwork, etc. And the workmanship was excellent as well!
Finding reliable and trustworthy contractors in Chicago is very difficult. We were thrilled to find MK. Sulika was extremely easy to work with and definitely has an eye for design.
My husband and l will definitely use them again on our next project.

The MK Team was very creative, responsive and professional during all aspects of the project from proposal to project completion. Sulika was very helpful in suggesting design suggestions that were beautiful and cost-efficient. What an asset to have a designer on your project!
The crew that updated the bathroom were real craftsmen who paid attention to detail, always on time, and addressed my concerns/questions along the way. I am very pleased with my master bathroom remodel which has increased the value of my home.
I would recommend MK Development to anyone looking for a first-rate project team at an affordable price.

Thank you so much! You & your team has been such a pleasure to work with! I really appreciate all of your help! Everything looks fantastic and we couldn’t be more pleased. Thank you!!

I can’t say enough about the timeliness of completion of project. Having gone through construction projects in the suburbs, it continues to amaze me that you and your staff were able to stay on schedule and complete project in just over three months. We always knew that there was a line of communication and commitment in getting the job done.
While living thru construction on site, we were very pleased to have had staff leave loft spotless each and every day after completion of work. We could even entertain on weekends during construction! Couldn’t be happier with our new home. We continue to get compliments on the loft as more and more people come visit and we find new friends downtown.
Thank you again for all you have done.

From the outset, the entire experience was very comfortable and professional. For us, as out of town owners, MK Group crew worked hard to accommodate our schedule. They were always on time for scheduled meetings, and always good and thorough communicators. Every aspect of the workmanship was excellent; attention to detail was evident throughout the remodeled spaces. MK did a great job coordinating all of the various trades involved. And they worked and communicated well with the building staff to manage elevator reservations, scheduling of deliveries and access for all of the trades. In conclusion, I would highly recommend MK Development. They are extremely reliable, professional, and thorough. You can count on them to do what they say they are going to do, when they say it will be done.

Great communication regarding the budget, timeline and status of project. They delivered on everything they promised. No surprises…they adhered to their proposal to the penny. Promptly return telephone calls/emails…even after the project was completed and paid in full.
Exceptionally clean…redid a MB and lived in the bedroom during the bathroom renovation—even my cleaning lady was impressed. Sulika has a GREAT eye for design and understand budgetary constraints and clients preferences.

We are enjoying our new bath so much. What a striking difference from the 25 year old bathroom! Working with you and your crew at MK was a pleasure. I am so thankful you handled all the stock and delivery problems we encountered from the manufacturer. It made my experience almost worry free and I often felt relieved that you were there to take care of all the issues. By the time I read the emails regarding delays or questions, you had already taken care of them.
Also, moving all the plumbing into the walls allowed us more space and resulted in a more streamlined look. Cannot thank you enough for all your hard work and design decisions.
Thanks again for a job well done!

You were able to provide great ideas when we told you what we were trying to accomplish with our remodel. Since we were not in town when MK completed the project, it was very important that we remained in constant communication. You provided updated photos on a timely basis so we could see the progress on the project. You effectively managed the entire process including all communication with the management company at our condo.
You kept our apartment very clean during the process and spotless after the post construction cleanup.
We were so pleased with MK we hired them for two additional projects (painting our entire condo and retrofit of a tv cabinet) AND we recommended them to another condo owner in the building who also hired them!

“My wife and I recently hired MK Development Group for a significant rehab of our 3-bedroom condo unit in the River North / River West area. Importantly, their costs (particularly staff overhead) were affordable relative to larger contractors and the quality of work was top-notch. In cases where we had minor issues which was rare, they were responsive / overly communicative (without being defensive which we appreciated) and very much on top of fixing the problem as soon as they possibly could.
Additionally, they managed their staff well and the entire crew demonstrated their expertise throughout the 6-week process which amazingly was completed on time. I would highly recommend them to anyone both for construction along with the design element of our project. They were creative and again, completed this piece without additional expenses that come along with bringing on separate outside designers. Last but not least, we were delighted that the project stayed in line with the budget we initially came up with.”

I had the MK Team do a renovation estimate on a condo I was looking at prior to purchasing the condo. They were very professional and thorough. I purchased the condo and was under a very tight timeline. I needed the renovations completed quickly as I needed to move out of a rental unit. The entire MK Team worked together from communicating with my condo building management company about the condo rules and regulations to the completion of the project including cleaning the entire condo within the projected time frame.
They stayed within their quoted budget. Their work was top quality. Sulika provided me with decorating advice and provided pictures of several selections of items I needed for the renovation from color choices to cabinet hardware to kitchen appliances to lighting fixtures. Her suggestions and advice was at no additional charge. The MK Team is a group of talented and very professional people that were easy and pleasant to work with. I highly recommend the MK Team if you are looking for a condo renovation in a large condo building.

Our bathroom is beautiful! We really are happy how it turned out. Your team is very accommodating, made great suggestions, paid close attention to detail and you left the place spotless. Thank you again.
P.S. We’ll be contacting you next year for the floors!
