Dedicated Pro-Account Manager

You’ll have as much or as little assistance as you require when working with us! We also recognize not one person can it all and collaborate as a team. Tired of being told your account manager is “not available” or whoever you’re talking to can’t help? At Great Lakes, speak with any of us and you will be assisted with product knowledge, inventory, installation guides, lead times, specs, or whatever else is needed. That’s the difference when working with small business that’s family-owned & managed! Chances are, you’ll be working one on one with one of the owners.

Showroom & Product Selection Help

We assist our pro’s residential clients with their product selections and kitchen cabinet design renderings in our beautiful Lotus Home Improvement showroom in Grayslake! We do not offer any local installation or remodeling services to homeowners. We only sell products. We do offer contractor referrals so having trade partners is what we’re all about!We can virtually meet with anyone as well. Don’t forget we work with commercial procurement departments on product selection and design details.

Delivery Capability

Our products have Chicagoland, regional, and national delivery capability options. We provide in-house delivery options to a 30 mile radius from our showroom and there are direct ship options from our vendors.
