Bathroom remodeling in Morton Grove, IL
Bathroom remodeling in Morton Grove often involves refreshing spaces within the village's predominant mid-century housing stock. These homes typically feature compact bathrooms, sometimes with original fixtures and layouts designed for a different era. Many projects focus on transforming these functional but dated spaces into more modern, efficient, and aesthetically pleasing environments. Homeowners frequently seek to update everything from flooring and wall finishes to plumbing fixtures and shower enclosures, often reconfiguring the layout to better utilize the existing footprint. This can mean converting a tub-shower combination to a walk-in shower, relocating a toilet, or introducing double vanities where space allows.
What Morton Grove homeowners ask for
Morton Grove homeowners frequently request larger showers or the conversion of an existing tub-shower to a spacious walk-in shower, especially in second-floor bathrooms of 1950s homes. Updating ventilation is also a common request, as older homes often have undersized or non-existent exhaust fans. Many also seek to replace original tile and fixtures with more contemporary, low-maintenance materials that align with modern design preferences.
About Morton Grove
Morton Grove filled in fast after World War II, so most remodels here start with a mid-century house: sensible footprint, compact kitchen, a basement waiting to be finished.
Morton Grove filled in fast after World War II — about 2,000 residents in 1940 became more than 20,000 by 1960 once the Edens Expressway cut the commute. The oldest blocks date to the village's rail-town years; it incorporated along the Milwaukee Road line in 1895. Commuters get a Metra stop on the Milwaukee District North line, and Sawmill Station now anchors Dempster and Waukegan.
The rapid post-World War II growth means many homes from the 1940s and 1950s likely have only one bathroom, necessitating additions or reconfigurations to accommodate modern family needs. For these pre-1960 homes, a remodel that moves plumbing is an opportune time to inspect for lead service lines, a critical consideration given the village's water commission inventory. The original plumbing in these older homes, especially those dating back to the rail-town years before 1940, often includes cast-iron or galvanized drains and supply lines, which frequently require replacement due to age and corrosion. Venting systems in these older builds may be undersized or non-existent, requiring upgrades to meet current code and improve air quality. Furthermore, the floor structures under original tile in these decades-old homes may require reinforcement or leveling to support new, heavier materials and prevent future issues. Creating primary suites often involves carving space from small bedrooms or expanding existing footprints, a common request for households staying put near local schools.
Bathroom remodeling in Morton Grove requires permits for plumbing alterations, drain and vent changes, and any structural modifications. GS Construction & Remodeling manages the complete permit process, including plan submission and scheduling all necessary inspections for plumbing, electrical, and general construction phases.

We have used GS for two bathroom projects-the first a small update; the second a complete remodel. We were thrilled with both. Everything was as promised; the timeline, price, and what it would look like. We were able to buy our own tile and fixtures and were not tied to any company's showroom. We got what we wanted and likely saved money doing so. GS also installed interior doors. The workmanship was great. The only downside is that now the bathrooms are the two nicest rooms in the house! I would heartily recommend GS construction!
