Remodeling in Highland Park, IL

GS Construction provides expert remodeling services to homeowners in Highland Park and throughout the North Shore. With decades of experience, we specialize in transforming kitchens, bathrooms, and entire homes. Let us bring your remodeling vision to life in Highland Park.

Highland Park has been building homes since its 1869 founding, and its streets show it. Prairie School history runs deep here — Frank Lloyd Wright's 1901 Willits House stands on Sheridan Road, and the National Register lists local homes by David Adler, Howard Van Doren Shaw, and Robert Seyfarth — while the Fort Sheridan Historic District turned 1890s officers' quarters into one-of-a-kind residences. Downtown's Central Avenue shops and Metra stop anchor a walk-to-town lifestyle, and neighborhoods like Ravinia, its own village until 1899, and Braeside keep their own UP-N stations. Remodeling this stock means respecting original framing and planning around older plumbing: the City operates its own water plant and is replacing lead service lines in phases through 2028, so a kitchen or bath renovation is a smart time to check your line. GS Construction works across that whole range — vintage-home kitchens, primary bath renovations, basement build-outs, additions, and whole-home remodels — for families zoned to District 112 schools and Highland Park High School.

Highland Park permits & building codes for remodeling projects

Highland Park runs all permitting through its online Civic Access Portal, and applications must be complete when submitted — the Building Division does not accept piecemeal submissions — with plan review typically taking 5 to 15 business days. General contractors must be licensed and bonded with the City, and every permit requires a signed Property Owner Authorization Form. Exterior changes to the city's 136 regulated historic structures need a Certificate of Appropriateness from the Historic Preservation Commission, though interior remodels are exempt from that review. GS Construction manages the full permit process — portal submission, contractor licensing, plan review, and inspection scheduling — on every Highland Park project.

We have used GS for two bathroom projects-the first a small update; the second a complete remodel. We were thrilled with both. Everything was as promised; the timeline, price, and what it would look like. We were able to buy our own tile and fixtures and were not tied to any company's showroom. We got what we wanted and likely saved money doing so. GS also installed interior doors. The workmanship was great. The only downside is that now the bathrooms are the two nicest rooms in the house! I would heartily recommend GS construction!
