Deerfield Home Remodeling
GS CONSTRUCTION & REMODELING
GS Construction & Remodeling has remodeled homes for Deerfield homeowners since 2015. Gregory and Patryk are a father-son team with more than 40 years between them, and one of them is on your job personally.
Whole-home work lives or dies on the order things happen in. We run it as one job with one schedule and one number to call, with an owner here on site and a portal showing you the schedule, any change orders and your balance — so the trades aren't tripping over each other and you aren't running your own remodel.
- Free in-home estimate from an owner, not a salesperson
- One itemized scope and one schedule across every room
- Permits and inspections handled with Deerfield across every trade
- Workmanship warranty on the whole project — our commitment never expires
"One scope, one schedule, one point of contact."

Whole-home remodeling in Deerfield, IL
Whole-home remodeling in Deerfield often focuses on transforming the village's prevalent mid-century ranches, split-levels, and colonials. These projects typically involve opening up compartmentalized floor plans, reconfiguring primary suites, and updating entire interiors to contemporary standards. We frequently address the original layouts, which often feature smaller, distinct rooms, by removing non-load-bearing walls to create expansive great rooms combining kitchens, dining, and living areas. For two-story colonials, this might mean a complete overhaul of the second floor, optimizing bedroom sizes and bathroom layouts. A complete renovation often means modernizing the entire living experience, from finishes and fixtures to the flow and functionality of every space.
What Deerfield homeowners ask for
Deerfield homeowners undertaking whole-home remodels frequently request comprehensive interior transformations that modernize entire living spaces. This often includes reconfiguring the flow between living areas, updating all bathrooms and the kitchen, and upgrading every surface from flooring to lighting. There's a strong desire to bring the entire home into a cohesive, contemporary aesthetic, moving away from dated finishes and layouts prevalent in the original builds.
About Deerfield
Deerfield's housing stock tells the story of the postwar boom, with ranches, split-levels, and colonials filling former farmland. Remodeling that stock is what we do, opening up mid-century floor plans for how families live now.
The village grew from about 3,300 residents in 1950 to nearly 12,000 by 1960, filling former farmland with the ranches, split-levels, and colonials that still line its streets, with later construction as the population grew toward today's roughly 19,000. Families here anchor around District 109 schools, Deerfield High School, downtown's Deerfield Square, and two Metra MD-N stations at Deerfield and Lake Cook Road.
What that means for whole-home remodeling in Deerfield: The rapid growth from 1950 to 1960 means many homes share similar mid-century floor plans and structural characteristics, making opening up these ranches, split-levels, and colonials a common project. For homes built before 1960, the prevalence of lead water service lines often necessitates full plumbing replacements during whole-home renovations, a detail we integrate into project planning. The focus on family life around schools and Deerfield Square means layouts are often reconfigured to better suit modern family living. The village's cost-share program for lead line replacement naturally pairs with plumbing-heavy remodels, allowing for comprehensive system updates while families live through the work.
Whole-home remodeling in Deerfield triggers extensive structural and systems-level reviews, requiring multiple inspections throughout the project for framing, electrical, plumbing, and insulation. GS Construction & Remodeling manages all permit applications, architectural plan submissions, and coordinates every inspection with the Village of Deerfield, ensuring continuous compliance.

GS Construction & Remodeling is the best of the best. We've hired them to work on 5 different properties (4 were extensive remodels) and continue to be thrilled with their work and have referred them to friends and family. I constantly bring to them pictures/ideas from Houzz & Pinterest and ask how we can duplicate high end looks on a budget and they pull it off - magnificently - every time. Not only do they know their craft, but they have a great design sense as well and make suggestions that always enhance the project. Their communication (providing estimates for changes as we go along, keeping in touch regarding scheduling, etc.) is excellent. They're nice people and incredibly respectful too - top notch all around.
