01 Who We Are

For decades, a family in Sidell has been building homes the right way — with patience, plumb lines, and pride.

Alexander Construction is a full-service general contractor rooted in small-town Illinois. We are the people you wave to at the hardware store, the crew your neighbors trust, and the name on the deed of homes that have stood for a generation already.

From a first-time custom build to the kitchen you have dreamed about for years, we treat every project as if our own family will live in it. Because, more often than not, we will be passing it on the street for the next twenty years.

02 What We Build

A general contractor for the whole of your home.

One trusted crew from foundation to finish carpentry. No subcontractor runaround, no surprises — just steady, accountable work.

01

Custom Homes & New Builds

Ground-up homes designed around the way you live — framed straight, finished beautifully, and built to outlast the mortgage.

02

Additions & Remodels

Master suites, bonus rooms and whole-home reworks that look as though they were always meant to be there.

03

Kitchens & Baths

The rooms you live in most, rebuilt with careful cabinetry, honest materials and craftsmanship that shows in the details.

04

Roofing & Exteriors

Roofs, siding and stonework that keep the Illinois weather out and hold their good looks for decades.

05

Decks & Outdoor Living

Cedar decks, pergolas and firepit patios that turn the back of the house into the best room you own.

06

Garages & Pole Barns

Detached garages, workshops and pole barns engineered for real Midwestern work and built to last.

03 The Craft

It's in the details
no one else sees.

A house is only as good as the joints you'll never look at. We sand the edges that hide behind the trim, plumb the studs nobody will measure, and choose the lumber that won't twist on you in five winters.

That quiet diligence is the difference between a house that's finished and a home that's right — and it's the thing our clients tell their friends about long after the last walkthrough.

“Anyone can hang a door. We hang it so it still closes sweet in twenty years.”
04 How It Goes

No mystery, no jargon. You'll always know what's happening next and what it costs.
