GS CONSTRUCTION & REMODELING

You get the scope written out line by line up front, not one number you can't check.

Bathroom remodeling in Libertyville, IL
Bathroom remodeling in Libertyville often addresses the varied architectural styles found across the village, from compact, original layouts in homes built before 1950 to more spacious, yet dated, bathrooms in 1990s subdivisions. Many projects involve modernizing fixtures and finishes while improving functionality and storage, especially in homes where original bathrooms might have limited counter space or outdated tile work. For properties in areas like Copeland Manor, built right after World War II, this often means reconfiguring small, compartmentalized spaces to create a more open and usable layout. In newer construction, the focus shifts to upgrading aesthetics, integrating smart home features, and enhancing comfort, moving away from builder-grade finishes. Older homes, particularly two-stories near Cook Memorial Park, frequently present opportunities to expand a primary bathroom by incorporating a small adjacent closet or even a portion of an unused bedroom, significantly improving its scale and amenities.
What Libertyville homeowners ask for
Libertyville homeowners frequently request walk-in showers with frameless glass enclosures, replacing older tub-shower combos, particularly in primary bathrooms. Another common demand is for double vanities with ample storage, which is a significant upgrade from the single pedestal sinks or small vanities often found in older homes. Heated flooring and smart mirror technology are also increasingly popular additions, elevating the comfort and modernity of these renovated spaces.
About Libertyville
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.
Homes from the 1880s railroad boom often feature original plumbing systems with cast-iron drains and galvanized supply lines, requiring full replacement during remodeling. Postwar neighborhoods like Copeland Manor, built between 1947 and 1949, typically have a single main bathroom, often with limited space for modern amenities. As the village's population tripled between 1950 and 1980, houses expanded to include additional, albeit small, bathrooms. Later subdivisions from the 1990s might have more bathrooms, but their original builder-grade finishes often require extensive upgrades. The presence of Lake Michigan water from CLCJAWA means understanding potential lead service line issues, especially in older homes, before undertaking plumbing-heavy work. Remodeling a 1950s ranch bath often involves reconfiguring the layout to improve functionality and aesthetics within the existing footprint.
Bathroom remodeling in Libertyville necessitates plumbing inspections for drain and vent changes, new fixture installations, and waterproofing integrity. GS Construction & Remodeling manages the full permit application process and coordinates all required inspections, ensuring compliance with village building codes.

Your Neighbours in Libertyville Love Us
Real reviews from homeowners. Ask us for live phone references.
They did an outstanding job on our complete bathroom renovation! Our bathroom was an icebox due to poor insulation from the original build. They made excellent design recommendations to resolve the poor insulation and also installed heated floors. They converted an outdated tub/ shower combo into a beautiful walk-in shower and we are thrilled with the results . Their team was prompt, courteous and clean, taking off shoes and wiping down the area which with a toddler in the home was extra appreciated. They even helped us install a shower rod in another bathroom that was not part of the project. We are so happy they were recommended to us and we would definitely recommend them for your project.
