About Fox River Home Improvements
Mark Legawiec has spent over 30 years in the home improvement industry. Over time, he noticed that 60% of his work involved fixing mistakes made by other contractors. As a result, he began thinking seriously about starting his own business. His goal was simple—to provide top-quality service and repairs to his community and nearby areas.
In 2019, with the strong support of his family, Mark took the next step and founded Fox River Home Improvements. At first, he focused mainly on roofing and roofing repairs. However, as demand grew, he soon added chimney inspections, cleaning, and repairs. Throughout the years, his four teenage children often worked alongside him, watching and learning valuable skills. Today, as young adults, they continue to play an important role in the Fox River team.
As customer needs evolved, the business expanded as well. Now, Fox River Home Improvements specializes in roofing, chimney services, fascia, soffits, gutters, siding repairs, and even interior design. Through every change and challenge, Mark has remained committed to his mission—helping homeowners protect and maintain the homes they’ve worked so hard for.
