Since 2008
The level doesn't care whose fault it is.
TrueLine started with two framers and a draftsman who kept hearing the same sentence on other people's job sites: that's not my trade. The electrician's answer blamed the plumber, the plumber's blamed the carpenter, and the homeowner paid for all three explanations.
So we became one contract. The people who draw the job price the job, and the crew that builds it was in the meetings. Eighteen years and six hundred permits later, the arrangement still has the same advantage it had on the first kitchen: nobody to blame but us.
We only remodel older homes on the near-west side — houses with balloon frames, plaster keys, and a century of other people's shortcuts. That's not a limitation. That's the work we'd choose anyway, and the work that chooses us back.
Standards we'll show you
Priced before touched
Every change gets a written price and schedule impact before the work happens — or a note that there is none. Our mistakes say $0.
Measured, not guessed
Laser measures, load calcs, and drawings that match the house as it stands — not the one the 1911 permit describes.
Left better than advertised
Dust walls, floor protection, and a broom-clean site at day's end. The final walkthrough is walked with a flashlight and a tape measure.
