About a year ago, we began planning a remodel of our kitchen. Our house was built in the 70’s and had settled and shifted over the years so nothing is level or plumb.  We found Shawn Warren of Freedom Builders & Remodelers on the Internet and called him to take a look. We are so glad we did!

From the beginning, he worked with us on finalizing our plans for our kitchen.  He not only focused on the obvious – the carpentry, electrical, plumbing – but had an eye on creating a clean design that would be functional and aesthetically pleasing.  Throughout the project, he kept us clearly informed of the progress and created an atmosphere of teamwork.  Although he was the contractor, he always made it clear that creating the best possible kitchen was a joint project between us.

By the time the remodel was finished, it was what we had wanted and more. During the entire project, Shawn’s work ethic, attention to detail, and emphasis on quality were amazing.  He is a creative problem solver who found unique ways to complete the job in a timely and financially responsible manner.

When on site, he was respectful of our property, pets, and family life – he always kept in mind that our family had to live and use the kitchen during the remodeling process and he made certain each day that we could do just that.  He never left our home after a day of remodeling without cleaning up.  Although he was always meticulous and precise, he never lost track of the bigger picture.  We were so impressed with how he saw all aspects of the job in this way, as parts of a whole. What a rare find!

After going through the remodeling experience with Shawn, we are very aware that we chose the best contractor possible. He was easy to work with, communicated clearly throughout the project, and did the type of quality remodeling job we had dreamed of.   Shawn Warren has the type of emphasis on doing a job well that is sorely missing among many professionals these days.   We plan on calling him again for our future remodeling projects! We highly recommend Shawn and Freedom Builders.

I had a window that was leaking in my office at home, the rain had came in and ruined the sheet rock under the window. I called Shawn Warren at Freedom Builders & Remodelers and had him give me a estimate. His price was fair and he did a great job...his clean up after the job was good also.
I would highly recommend Freedom Builders & Remodelers for all of your projects

My wife and I have hired Freedom Builders & Remodelers for many remodeling projects in our home. When we discovered Shawn's talent we realized we found a gift worth telling others about. The most recent was our basement. Shawn took an unfinished basement and created a warm and cozy room that is practical for entertaining and home schooling. I have always appreciated Shawn's attention to detail. I would recommend Shawn for any type of detailed work. He is an excellent remodeler and capable of both large and small projects.

We would absolutely recommend Freedom Builders & Remodelers for remodeling and window installation. We appreciated the professionalism and quality of work on our bathroom that was made bigger and all new windows with a stain finish on wood trim inside was beautiful. Shawn was very knowledgeable in a variety of areas of work. We were blessed with good weather and he did the work in a timely manner, making sure we were happy with the progress of each step. We felt we could trust his judgment.

We would like to note the house had been blessed with a prayer the day we decided to choose Freedom Builders & Remodelers, therefore we felt guided and thank God as well.

Bless you Shawn

Disc Replay of Rockford We want to thank Shawn Warren of Freedom Builders & Remodelers for fixing our backdoor last week. For once, we did not get a flood with the heavy rains. He did an awesome job!

Steve Ganzer-Rockford, IL | Logli Butcher Man
I made the right call to have Freedom Builders & Remodelers do a home remodel job for me, and is the only call I will make for jobs down the road. He came up with an out of box solution that saved considerable money and met my budget. Shawn took an ugly eyesore attached to my house and made it into a beautiful work of art to match a picture I had provided. He also rebuilt my porch to code and added missing railing to match the aesthetics of the home.

We recently updated with new carpeting and wall paper at my dental office.  The old baseboard was vinyl, but I wanted a richer look of oak. We had Shawn install all new oak baseboard in the entire office. It looks GREAT! Shawn of Freedom Builders & Remodelers did an excellent job with the detail work. We would definitely use Shawn again for other projects.

Laird Pearcy-Cherry Valley | R2HOP
Shawn Warren of Freedom Builders & Remodelers is a great builder. He is both sensitive to the client’s considerations while suggesting appropriate building designs that will meet a client’s budget. In completing our basement, Shawn needed to apply some unique building techniques to get around existing structural problems. He was full of ideas. The framing was amazingly precise. The electrical set up was convenient. The fit and finish were also of high quality. The basement looks great.”

Here are some additional comments for the other work:

Shawn was able to pick up emergency calls and provided needed service in a timely way. When my PVC vent pipe connection started leaking water into my kitchen while raining. Shawn was able to see the problem, determine why it had happened, get the correct replacement parts and fix the leak within a matter of hours. This eliminated the potential weather damage. (Rockton house)

Following Cherry Valley house:

When the water softener connections began to leak – shortly after the 90 day plumber warranty period, Shawn was able to fix the tricky PVC to copper connection. When Shawn fixed it, it stayed fixed. While Shawn was fixing the water softener, my wife and I mentioned a problem we were having with our kitchen sink. There was no splash guard and the painted surface was rapidly becoming a mess. The solution was simple. Create a tile splash guard to make cleanup much easier. Shawn used tiles that we had and in basically an hour or less, we had our splash guard. Thanks Shawn!
