Remodeling in Great Lakes, IL

Great Lakes permits & building codes for remodeling projects
Great Lakes is a federal installation (within North Chicago's city limits), so no municipal permit office operates on the base: construction on the installation itself, including its privatized family housing, is governed by the Navy and its housing partner rather than a local permit office. Remodels on nearby owner-occupied homes fall under the City of North Chicago or the Village of Lake Bluff, and any unincorporated Lake County parcel is permitted through the county's Planning, Building & Development department in Libertyville, which handles plan review, permits, and inspections. GS Construction manages the entire permit process — confirming the right jurisdiction, preparing the application, and coordinating inspections through final sign-off.

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.
