The Jacobs Companies

As the Chicago North Shore’s premier custom builder we have been creating communities of distinction for over 86 years. Our name and reputation as a builder with vision and integrity is built into every home. We pride ourselves on building residences of exceptional quality, which has allowed us an established record of continued success, generation after generation. Albert S. Jacobs conceived and planned this great company at the start of his career during the great depression. No doubt, he was a man with great vision and courage. From his humble beginnings with his 2 sons, he built this company with a hands-on approach and a dedicated core of professionals. The results speak for themselves. Today, we continue his legacy building a solid foundation of value, an intimate level of customer service and an unrivaled degree of quality instrumental to the growth of our reputation earning us the recognition as a leader within the home builder arena.
