About C & H Construction and Remodeling

Cristina Carranza started C & H Construction and Remodeling 5 years ago in Sycamore after years of watching the same story play out on jobsites across Illinois. Homeowners would hand over a deposit, watch their project lose its shape somewhere between demo and drywall, and end up with a finished space that looked nothing like what they pictured. The work was fine. The experience wasn't.

So Cristina Carranza built a different kind of remodeling company — one where the design gets locked down before the first cabinet is ordered, where the price you sign is the price you pay outside of changes you approve in writing, and where the people doing the work actually care whether you're still glad you started when it's all over.

That philosophy has stuck. After 5 years of kitchens, bathrooms, additions, and full-home transformations across Sycamore, the team is still small enough that you'll know everyone on your project by name, and seasoned enough that you won't have to explain twice what you're trying to achieve.

What We Stand For

Design Before Demo

A great remodel is decided on paper, not on the fly. We invest real time upfront in drawings, selections, and material decisions so construction is execution, not improvisation.

Fixed Pricing, Honest Change Orders

Your contract price is a real number tied to a real scope. When something changes mid-project — your idea or ours — you see the cost in writing before any extra work begins.

Respect for Your Home and Your Family

You're still living here while we're working. That means dust barriers go up, floors get protected, crews clean up at the end of each day, and we communicate before anything noisy or disruptive happens.

Finish What We Start

Punch lists get closed out. Final walkthroughs happen on real dates. We don't disappear when the deposit clears or after the big systems are installed.

Built by Professionals You Can Trust

Our Team

Behind every C & H Construction and Remodeling project is a small group of designers, carpenters, tile setters, cabinet installers, and a dedicated project manager who keeps everything moving. Most of our trade partners have worked with us for years, which is why the finish work tends to look like one hand did it instead of eight
