About us

It all began with a simple idea fueled by a deep passion. As a small business, we pride ourselves on personal attention and dedication to every detail. Our approach is rooted in quality and integrity, ensuring that everything we do reflects our commitment to excellence.

Our story

Founded by Brian Young, Ebon Construction is built on the belief that construction is both a skill and an art. We take pride in transforming visions into lasting, high-quality structures. Whether you need a kitchen remodel, a bathroom upgrade, or a brand-new custom home, Ebon Construction delivers reliable service and outstanding results that stand the test of time.

We serve homeowners, property managers, HOAs, and businesses throughout the Chicagoland area. Our mission is to exceed client expectations through clear communication, transparency, and dedication to excellence.

Brian Young's first project

I’ll never forget my first completed construction project. It wasn’t the biggest or the most complex job I’ve ever done, but it carried the most meaning. From the moment I laid the foundation to the final touches on the trim, I watched an idea turn into a solid, finished space that someone would actually live in and enjoy.

Seeing that transformation — from blueprints and sketches to a real, standing structure — and being hands on with the project gave me a deep sense of pride and fulfillment. It made all the hard work, long hours, and problem-solving worthwhile.

When I handed over the keys to the client and saw their excitement, it confirmed for me why I chose this profession. It wasn’t just about building walls or installing floors; it was about creating a place where memories would be made.

That first project lit a fire in me to keep learning, improving, and striving for excellence. To this day, I carry that same passion and dedication into every job I take on.

Contribution to the Chicago community

At Ebon Construction L.L.C., we believe that strong communities are built from the ground up. Our mission goes beyond constructing buildings — we’re dedicated to uplifting and investing in the urban neighborhoods we serve.

We help urban communities in several ways:

• Revitalizing neighborhoods: By renovating aging properties and transforming vacant lots into beautiful, functional spaces, we help bring new life and value to local areas.
• Creating safe, quality housing: We focus on providing high-quality craftsmanship that ensures safe, durable homes and buildings for families and local businesses.
• Supporting local jobs: We prioritize hiring local talent and partnering with minority- and women-owned subcontractors whenever possible, keeping economic opportunities within the community.
• Building pride and ownership: Our projects encourage neighborhood pride and strengthen the sense of community by turning neglected properties into places residents can be proud of.
• Mentorship and training: We strive to inspire and train the next generation of builders and tradespeople by providing guidance and hands-on learning opportunities.

At Ebon Construction, we understand that every project is a chance to make a positive impact. We’re committed to building not only structures but also stronger, more connected urban communities.
