Whether a project involves General Contracting or Construction Management, our partnering concept prevails every step of the way. Our project management teams are versed in all modern construction methods and materials, and strive to understand the needs and concerns of all customers in order to deliver extraordinary service.

Our construction management teams start every project with an initial review of schedules, budgets and feasibility to achieve the ideal final result. Throughout the course of every project, regular progress reports and periodic design reviews are supplied, and feedback from the customer is sought. This ensures that no customer is ever left feeling uninformed or disconnected. The strong communications skills of J.L. Burke's team members extend to all communications with the customer, and result in projects delivered on time and within budget. Our commitment to partnering with the client drives this philosophy and is supported by our main office in Mokena, IL and through our numerous inter-connected field offices around the Chicago area.

As General Contractors, the J.L. Burke team delivers hands-on support, with firm direction while supervising all costs. J.L. Burke Contracting, Inc. selects reliable subcontractors who know how to work with the Burke team to use construction efficiencies that cut costs while insuring high quality for every project. In every case, the savings are passed on to our customer.

The completion of a project doesn’t need to mark the end of the partnership with J.L. Burke Contracting. We also address all post-construction services including maintenance and operation, comprehensive energy management and landscape architecture.

Safety on the job site is always a priority.  We have been recognized and received awards for job safety, most recently for a multi-million dollar construction project that involved 29,000 man-hours without an injury.
