About

We started GEVO to make home services feel like hospitality.

A cozy bedroom with a large bed, white and green pillows, beige headboard, bedside tables with books, and a window with beige curtains letting in natural light, in a minimalistic style.

Based in Oak Park, Illinois, serving the western suburbs and the city.

GEVO is intentionally small. It began with a simple observation. The people who come into our homes provide one of the most personal services we experience, yet it’s often one of the least considered.

We believe caring for a home deserves a more intentional approach. One built on trust, consistency, and the feeling that someone has taken the time to prepare your home with genuine care.

Living room with a cream sofa, colorful pillows, a wooden coffee table with a vase of orange flowers, a large potted plant near a window, and a white bookshelf filled with decorated ceramic vases, framed photos, books, and a vinyl record collection.

Founder

A film background, applied to the home.

I spent more than 20 years working as a commercial art director, building, dressing, and managing sets for film and photography. I also spent years in property management, caring for buildings and the people who lived and worked in them.

Both careers taught me that the way a space is cared for quietly shapes how people feel. GEVO brings that experience into the home with the structure of production and the care of hospitality.

We’re locally owned, fully insured, and proud to call Oak Park home. We pay our team well, train them carefully, and stay intentionally small so every client receives a personal level of service.

What we believe

A few principles we don't bend on.

01

Same team, every visit.

You should know who's in your home, and they should know your home.

02

Trained, paid fairly.

Hospitality only works when the people delivering it are looked after.

03

Respect the home.

We honor your trust with respect and discretion.

04

Honest pricing.

A clear quote is provided after a full walk-through of your project.

05

Eco-conscious by default.

We use Low-VOC products unless you ask for something else

06

Local, small, ours.

Independent, Oak Park-owned, and not trying to become a franchise.
