Glenview Home Remodeling
GS CONSTRUCTION & REMODELING
GS Construction & Remodeling has remodeled homes for Glenview 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 Glenview 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 Glenview, IL
Whole-home remodeling in Glenview often involves transforming properties from the mid-20th century, particularly those built in the 1950s through 1970s, to better suit contemporary lifestyles. We frequently encounter two-story colonials or split-level homes where homeowners seek to open up compartmentalized living spaces. This typically means reconfiguring kitchens and family rooms, expanding primary suites, and integrating dated design elements into a cohesive, modern aesthetic. Many projects focus on improving flow between living areas, updating original finishes, and enhancing energy efficiency throughout the entire residence. Our work addresses everything from structural modifications to comprehensive interior redesign, ensuring a unified and updated living experience.
What Glenview homeowners ask for
Glenview homeowners pursuing whole-home remodels frequently request significant layout changes, such as removing walls between kitchens and dining rooms to create large, open-concept living areas. Integrating mudrooms or dedicated laundry spaces into existing footprints is also common, especially in homes where these amenities were not originally designed. We also see strong demand for adding or expanding primary bathrooms and walk-in closets, converting smaller, original bedrooms into more functional spaces within a larger master suite, and updating all flooring, millwork, and lighting for a consistent, modern feel.
About Glenview
Glenview offers a diverse tapestry of homes, spanning a full century of housing, which allows us to remodel across various styles and eras. Our deep local expertise helps us navigate these unique characteristics, from preserving historical character to modernizing for contemporary living.
Near downtown and the Depot Street Metra and Amtrak station sit established neighborhoods like Swainwood, where many homes date from before 1940 through the 1960s. The Glen, built on the 1,028-acre former Glenview Naval Air Station which closed in 1995, added an entire district of newer homes around Gallery Park, Lake Glenview, and the Glen Town Center. These homes were typically built from the late 1990s onward. Zooming in past the broad eras, Glenview becomes a map of named subdivisions we know street by street. Tall Trees, built largely in the 1960s north of Lake Avenue west of Waukegan Road, features homes ranging from roughly 2,300 to 4,300 square feet. Glen Oak Acres, off Lake west of Wagner Road, boasts spacious yards. Indian Ridge, on Landwehr north of Lake Avenue, is a 1980s community. In unincorporated pockets like Glenview Countryside, building permits run through Cook County's Building and Zoning department rather than Village Hall.
Homes in established neighborhoods like Swainwood, dating from before 1940 through the 1960s, often feature traditional layouts and plaster walls, requiring careful consideration for opening up spaces due to original electrical and plumbing systems. Postwar ranches and split-levels, common in areas spreading outward from the village center, present opportunities for open-concept transformations, with their structure allowing for significant layout changes. In subdivisions like Tall Trees, built largely in the 1960s, and Indian Ridge, a 1980s community, homeowners frequently seek updated kitchens, primary bathrooms, and finished basements, which can be sequenced to allow families to live through the renovation. Glen Oak Acres' spacious yards make additions straightforward, allowing for seamless expansions like sunrooms or family room extensions that respect original architecture. For homes built from the late 1990s onward in The Glen, updated kitchen and bath styles, and finished basements are common, with their newer construction generally simplifying structural and MEP work.
A whole-home remodel in Glenview will trigger comprehensive structural and MEP (mechanical, electrical, plumbing) reviews by the Village, requiring multiple inspections throughout the project lifecycle. GS Construction & Remodeling expertly manages all necessary permit applications, coordinates with Village officials, and schedules every required inspection to ensure full compliance.
