  • One itemized scope and one schedule across every room
  • Permits and inspections handled with Lake Barrington across every trade
  • Workmanship warranty on the whole projectour commitment never expires

Whole-home remodeling in Lake Barrington, IL

GS Construction provides expert remodeling services to homeowners in Lake Barrington and throughout Barrington Township. We're a family-owned and operated contractor specializing in kitchen, bathroom, and whole-home renovations in the northwest suburbs.

Lake Barrington incorporated in 1959 to keep zoning in local hands, and the wooded, large-lot character it protected shows in every era of its housing. Barrington Harbor Estates off Kelsey Road dates to the late 1950s; Lake Barrington Shores added 1,317 gated townhomes and condominiums around a 96-acre private lake between 1974 and 1996; and newer subdivisions like the custom Enclave of Heritage Estates and Taylor Morrison's Tallgrass carried building through the 2010s into the 2020s. GS Construction matches the remodel to the era — kitchen and bathroom updates in 1970s–90s Shores units, whole-home renovations of the village's oldest mid-century houses, and basement build-outs and additions on wooded single-family lots. One local reality shapes planning: there is no village-wide water system, so most houses run on private wells and septic, and any project that moves plumbing accounts for Lake County Health Department requirements from day one. Families here are served by Barrington 220 schools, with Metra's UP-NW line in neighboring Barrington.

Lake Barrington permits & building codes for whole-home remodels

The Village of Lake Barrington issues its own building permits, with plan review and inspections handled by a contracted third-party building code firm — first residential plan reviews typically take 7–10 business days and can run longer in the spring and summer permitting seasons. Because most homes here rely on private wells and septic rather than municipal service, remodels that add or relocate plumbing may also involve Lake County Health Department review. GS Construction manages the entire permit process for Lake Barrington projects — application, plan review, health-department coordination where needed, and inspection scheduling.

How your Lake Barrington 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.

Our project turned out better than we expected and as things were going along, we added more projects. Patryk, Greg and their team did a fantastic job. They were always so nice to work with, even suggesting things which was helpful. They never left a project until they thought it was perfect. We did a full kitchen remodel, even closing off a window to move a fridge and pantry to the other side to allow more cabinets and much needed counter space. They widen the entrance and the kitchen seems so much bigger. We think it’s Beautiful! They did laminated floors throughout the first floor, painted all walls and new baseboards. They created a wine bar which was just a cubby hole. They put in a pantry like cubby hole in our laundry room and added cabinets and above wall unit. One of the projects we had them add is new wooden stairs to the 2nd floor, white spindles and railing that curves instead of a wall and laminate floors on the 2nd floor. Other odd and ends that they never hesitated to do. We appreciate all they have done in our home, To us, it’s amazing how nice it is and how it should have been all the years we have lived here. Its exciting to show it off, it feels like a new house. These guys are amazing and would definately recommend them to anyone. Very reliable and easy to get in contact with when needed.
