About Us
Doing more planning up front helps eliminate problems once work begins.
History:
In 1992, Karen Tate founded Tate Enterprises alongside her husband Bob Tate for small remodel projects and handyman services. The family-owned, Hinsdale based business, grew to include Jim Sullivan and their daughter Lisa. The company’s commitment to client satisfaction and outstanding workmanship has earned them several awards including NARI Remodeling Excellence for Residential Kitchen and Residential Additions. Jim has been featured on HGTV as well as House Smarts TV. The business has evolved as the industry and client’s expectations have changed. Jim and Lisa work side by side in the planning and execution phases to be certain your project goes smoothly. In 2015 the business transitioned owners to Bob and Karen’s daughter Lisa Sullivan and her husband Jim Sullivan where the business evolved into the current design and remodel service business it is today.

Jim:
Jim is a United States Air Force veteran where he was a B-52 crew chief and served for 4 years. In 1996, Jim first began working for Tate Enterprises.

In 2015 Jim took over the business alongside his wife Lisa, where his days includes overseeing your home renovations, managing sub-contractors, and daily communication with clients. Passionate about the work he does and the home renovations he delivers, Jim’s goal is to expertly manage every project with precision, timeliness, and thoughtful decision that will lead to long-standing quality and timeless design.
