OUR HISTORY

Burks Bros. Drywall Inc. was founded in 1985 when brothers Don Burks and Jim Burks decided to join forces to serve the Chicago drywall market. Based in the Yorkville area of Illinois, Don and Jim set out to bring something different to professional drywall installation in Chicago; a sense of family pride. With almost 50 years of experience between them, the brothers knew their expertise would be the foundation for a great family business, hoping future generations would join them along the way; and they did.

The Burks brothers grew their business, building a reputation for unsurpassed results and uncompromising excellence in commercial and residential drywall installation in Chicago and the surrounding areas. By the 1990’s, Mike and Brett (sons of Don) joined the team and continue to run the company today while Don and Jim enjoy their well-deserved retirement.

For Mike and Brett, their business’ history matters and that sense of family pride remains. They know, along with the rest of the family of employees, that every project is part of the Burks Bros. Drywall’s legacy; they stake their name and reputation on it. With great respect for what their dad and uncle created, they take great care in every aspect of the business; treating employees and clients like their own family.

Burks Bros. Drywall is more than just a company; it’s a dream, it’s a legacy and it’s a family. When you choose us for your Chicago drywall installation project, you join in our history and become part of our future. That’s why your needs become our vision; and we don’t leave until we bring it to life just the way you want it. If you aren’t 100% satisfied, we aren’t done; just like Don and Jim did things from the start in 1985.
