The U.S. Shelter Companies are currently in their third family generation of planning and building fine residential communities throughout the Greater Chicago Metropolitan Area. During the more than 40 years since its inception, this family owned and operated company has gained an enviable reputation as an outstanding land developer and quality home builder. U.S. Shelter homes and its communities offer superior design, workmanship and outstanding value. The company takes pride in this hard-earned reputation.
The companies’ activities typically include land selection and acquisition; zoning, annexation and land planning. Then the companies undertake the land development stage with the responsibility for mass earth moving, installation of underground improvements – sewer, public water supply and storm water management plus the coordination of telephone, electric and gas systems. Additionally, the installation of surface improvements – including roadway base, road surface, curb, gutter and public walks are installed by the appropriate subcontractor at each new community.
U.S. Shelter has worked with some of Chicago's top architects to create homes which are designed to meet today’s housing needs. We utilize our years of experience to develop efficient, livable, safe and attractive homes that buyers want. We then work with reputable tradesmen to build your new home. We employ our many years of experience to help this process run as smoothly as possible to meet your expectations.
The building process isn’t complete when we deliver your new house. Our service extends well beyond your move in date and provides additional peace of mind. We realize we are building your house, but it isn't until you move in when you truly establish your home as a member of the new community.
