Fabrication and installation

A direct conversation. A coordinated team.

Your first conversation is with Len. He helps define the work and stays close to the design and details. Mario coordinates the field work with the crew.

The core team and returning specialists keep design, shop fabrication, and installation connected.

A few useful answers.

Do I need finished plans?

No. Start with where the project is and what you want to change. Drawings, photos, and dimensions can help when you have them.

Can you work with my architect or designer?

Bring your existing team into the conversation. Len can discuss Breuder’s role and how design, fabrication, and field responsibilities would be coordinated.

Can I start with one room or one piece?

Yes. A kitchen, a bathroom, a stair, or a single fabricated detail can be the starting point. Describe the scope so Len can discuss fit.

Where do you work?

Breuder is based in Chicago and serves Chicagoland, northern Illinois, southeast Wisconsin, and southwest Michigan. Share the project location so Len can confirm fit.
