About Us
About Company
Professional and Expert Contractors
At Lara Contractors, we believe great construction starts with great relationships. Based in Chicago and proudly serving the surrounding communities, we bring years of experience and a deep commitment to quality on every project — big or small. Whether it’s residential, commercial, masonry, or general contracting, our team approaches every job with honesty, precision, and pride.
We understand that construction isn’t just about bricks and beams — it’s about trust, timelines, and delivering on your vision. That’s why we prioritize clear communication, dependable service, and results that speak for themselves. From initial planning to final walkthrough, Lara Contractors is your partner every step of the way.
Construction has always been more than just a job for me — it’s a passion rooted in building things that last and making a real impact in people’s lives. I take pride in being hands-on, solving problems before they happen, and making sure every client feels confident and informed throughout the process. There’s nothing better than seeing a project go from an idea on paper to a space that people live in, work in, or grow their business in. That’s what keeps me showing up every day with purpose.
As the Project Manager at Lara Contractors, I oversee every stage of construction — from initial planning and permits to day-to-day coordination and final walkthroughs. With a deep understanding of both the field and the office side of the job, I work closely with clients, crews, and city inspectors to ensure each project runs smoothly, stays on schedule, and meets the highest standards of quality. Clear communication, attention to detail, and a commitment to doing things the right way are what I bring to every build.
