Home additions in Kenilworth, IL

GS Construction provides remodeling services to homeowners in Kenilworth and throughout New Trier Township. We're a local, family-owned contractor specializing in kitchen, bathroom, and whole-home renovations, bringing decades of experience to projects of all sizes in the area.

Kenilworth is the North Shore's youngest lakefront village and its most deliberately planned: Joseph Sears laid out 223 acres between the rail line and Lake Michigan in 1889, and Prairie School architect George W. Maher went on to design roughly 37 of its homes along with parks and civic monuments. Remodeling here means working inside that 1890s-1920s fabric — Tudor and Colonial Revival houses with plaster walls, original millwork, early-generation wiring, and, per the Village's own inventory, some remaining lead and galvanized water services ahead of Kenilworth's 2027 cost-share replacement program. GS Construction plans kitchens and bathrooms around those realities, finishes basements under century-old foundations, and designs additions that respect Sears' large-lot, tree-lined streetscape. Families are served by the Joseph Sears School (District 38) through eighth grade and New Trier after, with the Metra UP-N stopping at Kenilworth's own station off Green Bay Road.

Kenilworth permits & building codes for home additions

Kenilworth's Building/Planning Division reviews permit applications for every building project in the Village (847-251-1666), with applications, plan tracking, payment, and the digital permit card all handled through the Village's online BS&A portal. Roofing, plumbing, irrigation, and electrical contractors must have current licenses on file with the Village as part of the submittal. If a remodel touches the water service, the Village's lead-line cost-share program (effective January 2027) covers 100% of the public side and half of the private side up to $3,000. GS Construction manages the full permit process — portal submittal, trade licensing, and inspection scheduling — on every Kenilworth project.

How your Kenilworth project runs

Process

The same six stages on every job — free in-home estimate through warranty.

1

Free in-home estimate

Greg or Patryk — the owners, not a salesperson — walk your space, take real measurements, and give you honest feedback on what your budget buys.

2

Itemized scope & contract

Labor, materials, demolition and disposal priced line by line, not one mystery number. Payment terms and warranty are in the written contract.

3

Design & selections

Bring your own designer, use our architects and designers, or choose everything yourself. Selections are scheduled ahead so lead times never stall the site.

4

Permits & scheduling

We pull and manage building, plumbing and electrical permits with your village — typically 1–2 weeks — and hand you a written schedule before demo day.

5

The build, owner-supervised

Long-standing trade partners working in sequence under daily owner supervision. Your client portal shows the schedule, change orders and current balance.

6

Walkthrough & warranty

We walk the finished job together, close out every punch-list item, hand over manufacturer paperwork, and your written workmanship warranty starts. Our commitment never expires.

Testimonials

Your Neighbours in Kenilworth Love Us

Real reviews from homeowners. Ask us for live phone references.

We cannot say enough good things about GS Construction and about Greg and Patryk. We hired them on a strong recommendation from a friend and are very pleased with the results. Our project included remodeling a kitchen and master bathroom and adding wood floors to several rooms in our condo. We had definite ideas of what we wanted since we have done many remodeling projects in several previous homes, but both Patryk and Greg added great value with suggestions and ideas of their own based on their experience and talent. Their follow through was excellent and we feel confident that if anything needs attention, they will be there to make it right. P.S. They did a great clean up at the end of the project......i
