Serving Lake Villa, IL homeowners

Lake Villa began as a resort town — E.J. Lehmann's 1880s retreat between Cedar Lake and Deep Lake, incorporated in 1901 — and its housing still tells that story. Near Cedar Avenue downtown and the Metra North Central Service depot, older village homes and converted lake cottages reward whole-home remodeling: reworked floor plans, added bathrooms, kitchens built for year-round living. The subdivisions that followed — Painted Lakes off Deep Lake Road (Centex, late 1990s), Cedar Crossing (1998–2003), and the 1970s–90s Fox Chase and Lakewood Hills area — are now at prime remodel age, where we update builder-era kitchens and primary baths and finish basements. The village runs its own water system and reports lead-free water mains; in pre-1986 homes we still confirm service-line material before plumbing work begins. With District 41 schools, Lakes Community High School, and a direct Metra ride to Union Station, Lake Villa families remodel to stay — and GS Construction builds the additions when they need more room.

Lake Villa permits & building codes for remodeling projects

The Village of Lake Villa requires a building permit or registration for most remodeling work — its Common Permits list covers kitchen and bathroom fixtures, cabinet installation, basement build-outs, partition walls, decks, additions, and any plumbing, electrical, or heating changes. Applications go through the Building Department at Village Hall, 65 Cedar Avenue (847-356-6100), which asks homeowners to check in before making interior or exterior changes; homes in unincorporated Lake Villa Township permit through Lake County Planning, Building & Development instead. GS Construction manages the full permit process on every Lake Villa project, from application and documents to inspection scheduling and final sign-off.

5 Stars

I did not realize I haven't written a review of GS yet. We remodeled our kitchen during the summer of 2020. Patryk was outstanding. He was even ahead of our estimated timeline by the end of the project (we were held up a little because of our cabinets - Patryk obviously couldn't control that, but he did make sure that other tasks were completed so that when the cabinets did come in, we still basically finished on time). The professionalism was top notch, and the quality was outstanding. I would recommend GS for any project.
