From its founding, Raffin Construction has been deeply rooted in Chicago's far southside neighborhoods. Louis Raffin, the founder of the company, immigrated from Italy in the early 1900s and settled in the Kensington neighborhood that was, at the time, a haven for Italian-American immigrants. He began as a humble concrete contractor serving primarily the needs of his immediate local community. The business is currently located in the Pullman neighborhood, just a few blocks away from its original site.
Raffin Construction is a fifth-generation family business. We take pride in not only providing our community with quality construction services, but also patronizing local businesses. Whether that's our business bank (Beverly Bank & Trust) or the restaurants we eat at during the work week (we highly recommend Old Fashioned Donuts for one), Raffin has been a cornerstone of our community since its founding.
