Libertyville's housing stock reads in layers, from 1880s railroad boom homes to 1990s subdivisions. Remodeling here spans that whole range, from opening up a compartmentalized kitchen to building an addition.
The oldest homes date to the 1880s railroad boom around downtown's Milwaukee Avenue historic district — a commercial core rebuilt in brick after the 1895 fire. Postwar neighborhoods like Copeland Manor, where more than 300 homes went up between 1947 and 1949, filled in as the village's population tripled between 1950 and 1980, and later subdivisions carried growth through the 1990s.
Remodeling here spans that whole range: opening up a compartmentalized kitchen in a century-old two-story near Cook Memorial Park, reworking a 1950s ranch bath, finishing a basement, or building an addition where the lot allows. One local wrinkle: the Village distributes Lake Michigan water from CLCJAWA, and it has confirmed a few hundred remaining lead service lines, with a Village-funded replacement program slated to begin in 2027 — worth knowing before plumbing-heavy work. GS Construction delivers kitchens, baths, basements, additions, and whole-home remodels for families anchored by District 70 schools, Libertyville High School, and the downtown Metra station.
Libertyville's Building Division takes a broad view of what needs a permit — its own guidance is "if you have to go to the hardware store, you probably need a permit" — and that covers remodeling, plumbing, roofing, siding, window replacement, and structural work, with fees based on construction cost and a cash bond of $500 to $5,000 on some projects. The Village has no contractor registration or fee, but contractors must file a certificate of insurance naming the Village, licensed electricians and plumbers must submit a signed letter of intent for each project, and construction hours are limited to 7 am–6 pm on weekdays with later starts on weekends. GS Construction manages the full permit path in Libertyville — application, license and insurance paperwork, plan review, and inspection scheduling — from start to final sign-off.
What homeowners in Libertyville ask for
Libertyville homeowners frequently request kitchen remodels that open up living spaces, often involving the removal of walls between kitchens and dining areas. Bathroom renovations, especially primary suite expansions and updates to older fixtures, are also very popular. Given the mix of home ages, basement finishing projects to create additional living space or home offices are common, as are whole-home updates that bring a cohesive, modern aesthetic.

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.
