Serving Evanston, IL homeowners

Evanston remodels differently than the villages to its north: it is a full-sized city of Victorian-era frame houses, foursquares, and greystones in the Lakeshore and Ridge historic districts, 1920s brick around Central Street, and postwar stock farther west. Four local districts — Lakeshore alone counts 765 contributing structures — plus landmarks like the 1894 Dawes House put exterior changes under Preservation Commission review, while interior kitchen, bath, and basement remodels proceed on standard permits. Older systems set the agenda: plaster walls, knob-and-tube-era wiring, and lead service lines the City is replacing block by block through its annual water-main program, free to owners in project areas — worth checking before basement work. GS Construction handles kitchens, bathrooms, basement finishing, additions, and full-gut renovations across the city, from the Main-Dempster Mile's walkable southeast to homes near Northwestern and the Grosse Point Lighthouse. The Purple Line and three Metra UP-N stops connect it all; teens attend ETHS.

Evanston permits & building codes for remodeling projects

Evanston runs permitting through its Accela Citizen Access portal (permits.cityofevanston.org), where building permit applications, contractor registration, and inspection records are all handled online through the City's Permit Desk. If a property is an Evanston landmark or sits in one of the four local historic districts, exterior changes require a separate Certificate of Appropriateness from the Preservation Commission — interior remodels generally do not trigger it. GS Construction manages the full permit process on every Evanston project, from portal submittal and contractor registration through final inspection.
