Chicago Design-Build Since 2013

One Company.
Everything Included.

Assembly Squad is Chicago's boutique design-build general contractor — one licensed team handles every step of your renovation under one roof, one contract, one fixed price.

Most homeowners spend weeks coordinating between an architect, a designer, a general contractor, and a cabinet vendor — each one pointing fingers when things go wrong. We built Assembly Squad to eliminate that entirely. From the first design consultation at our Lincoln Park studio through the final city inspection, you work with one dedicated team and one project manager accountable for everything.

We specialize in kitchen remodeling, bathroom renovation, condo gut renovations, basement finishing, whole-home renovations, attic conversions, and Illinois-made custom cabinetry — serving all Chicago neighborhoods and the North Shore.

Our Story

Built in Chicago. Built Different.

From a two-person startup to Chicago's most trusted design-build company — here's how we got here.

2011
The Idea Begins

Viktor Aharon — 22+ years deep in remodeling — builds the first version of Assembly Squad as a mobile app designed to help homeowners navigate the remodeling process more intelligently, giving them a smarter way to plan, budget, and manage their renovation.

2013
Assembly Squad Is Born

The app evolves into something bigger. Assembly Squad officially launches as a boutique design-build general contracting company — IL License #TGC098779, HQ at 205 N Michigan Ave. One team, one contract, one stress-free experience.

2015
Condo Expertise Takes Shape

As Chicago's high-rise condo renovation demand surges, Assembly Squad builds its HOA coordination system — alteration agreements, COI management, board presentations. Pre-approvals begin accumulating. Today that number exceeds 300 buildings.

2019
Recognition & Growth

Assembly Squad earns Best of Houzz, joins NKBA, and achieves its A+ BBB rating. The team completes its 200th Chicago renovation. Specialization deepens across kitchen design-build, historic greystone renovation, and luxury condo gut rehabs.

2024
Illinois-Made Cabinets

Assembly Squad launches its Illinois-made custom cabinetry program — cutting import delays from 16 weeks to 4–6. Better cabinets, faster delivery, zero tariff exposure. No overseas supply chain risk.

2025
Lincoln Park Design Studio Opens

Assembly Squad opens its 2,500 sq ft design-build studio at 2315 N Southport Ave, Lincoln Park. With 500+ curated materials on display — cabinet finishes, countertop slabs, tile, hardware, and flooring — clients work side by side with our experienced design team before a single wall comes down.

2025
Squad to Suburbs

Assembly Squad launches its North Shore expansion — bringing the same boutique design-build experience to Winnetka, Lake Forest, Highland Park, Glencoe, Evanston, and beyond.

Today
500+ Projects. Still Building.

13+ years. 500+ completed renovations. 4.9 stars. A+ BBB. NARI Chicago member. EPA Lead-Safe Certified. And the same commitment Viktor started with in 2011 — make Chicago home renovation the way it should always have been: stress-free, transparent, and built to last.

From the Founder

Why I Started Assembly Squad

"I wanted to build something genuinely different — a company where Chicago homeowners never have to waste a single hour of their day managing their own renovation."

After more than 22 years working in remodeling, I saw the same frustrations play out over and over. Homeowners juggling multiple contractors, chasing permit updates, making a dozen decisions no one prepared them for — all while trying to live their lives. The process was broken, and it didn't have to be.

Assembly Squad started as an app in 2011 — built specifically to help homeowners navigate the remodeling process more intelligently. By 2013, that idea evolved into a boutique design-build general contracting company built around a single principle. One team handles everything. Design, permits, materials, construction, and final walkthrough — under one contract, one fixed price, one dedicated project manager.

What sets us apart isn't just what we build — it's how we think about why you're building it. Some clients are creating a forever home. Others are planning a 5 to 6 year stay before moving on. Both are valid, and both deserve a smart renovation strategy. We build a plan that balances your enjoyment of the home today with the return you'll see when it's time to sell. You shouldn't have to choose between loving where you live now and protecting your investment later.

That's the company I set out to build in 2013. That's the company we are today.

"Thirteen years in this industry has taught me one thing above everything else — transparency, fairness, and genuinely putting your clients first isn't just the right way to do business. It's the only reason any business lasts."
