Company Background
M&R Construction is a family-owned and operated business deeply rooted in Benton, IL. The company's foundation was laid in the 1990s by the owner's parents, who instilled a passion for building and craftsmanship from a very young age. Learning hands-on at job sites from the age of seven, the owner developed a lifelong commitment to quality and service. Today, M&R Construction continues that legacy, bringing decades of combined experience to every project. We specialize in residential and commercial renovations, offering a comprehensive range of services including roofing, painting, drywall, mudding, taping, and remodels. Our approach is built on the personal values taught by family: honesty, dedication to detail, and a genuine desire to improve our neighbors' homes and businesses in the Benton community. We take pride in our local reputation and are proud to provide reliable, high-quality workmanship backed by strong references.

FAQs
What specific experience does M&R Construction have with roofing issues common in Benton, like roof valley leaks?
Growing up in Benton and learning the trade here, we understand how local weather patterns can stress a roof. Roof valley leaks are a frequent issue we address. Our process involves a thorough inspection to find the exact source of the leak, which often involves worn flashing or compromised sealant in the valley itself. We then perform a precise repair or, if necessary, a targeted replacement of the valley section, using materials suited for our climate to prevent a quick recurrence. Our family has been handling these specific Benton-area problems for decades.
Do you provide painting services as part of a larger renovation, or can you handle painting projects alone?
We absolutely do both. Whether you're repainting a single room, updating the exterior of your Benton home, or need painting as the finishing touch on a full remodel, we handle it. Our painting services are meticulous, from proper surface preparation to clean, crisp lines. Having learned the importance of a quality finish from a young age on job sites, we treat a stand-alone paint job with the same care and attention to detail as a major construction project.
My home needs several repairs—drywall, painting, and a roof patch. Can M&R Construction manage all of that?
Yes, we are well-equipped to handle multi-service projects like this. As a general contractor, we coordinate all aspects of the work, from the structural roofing repair down to the interior drywall and finishing paint. This integrated approach, honed over years of family teamwork, means you have a single point of contact and responsibility. It often results in a more efficient timeline and a cohesive final result, saving you the hassle of managing multiple specialty contractors for your Benton home.
