Kitchen remodeling in Morton Grove, IL
Kitchen remodeling in Morton Grove often means reimagining the compact, functional spaces typical of mid-century homes built during the village's post-war expansion. Many properties feature kitchens designed with a distinct separation from living and dining areas, a layout that no longer suits modern family life. A typical kitchen remodel here involves opening up these defined spaces, creating a more integrated flow that connects cooking, dining, and entertaining. We frequently encounter original cabinetry, appliances, and finishes from the 1950s and 60s, which homeowners are eager to update for both aesthetics and improved functionality. Our work transforms these foundational kitchens into contemporary hubs that better serve today's households.
What Morton Grove homeowners ask for
Morton Grove homeowners frequently request larger kitchen islands that double as dining space, replacing the breakfast nooks common in older designs. The desire to remove non-load-bearing walls to connect the kitchen with the adjacent dining room or living area is a consistent theme. Additionally, many projects incorporate pantry additions or more efficient storage solutions, addressing the often limited storage found in original kitchen footprints.
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 expansion, with the population soaring from 2,000 to over 20,000 by 1960, means many kitchens were designed for the compact, functional needs of that era. Homes built before 1960, particularly those from the village's rail-town years incorporated in 1895, may have original plumbing that could be lead, making a kitchen remodel an opportune time to inspect and update water supply lines. The distinct separation of kitchens from dining or family rooms is common in 1950s homes, reflecting the design trends before the Edens Expressway significantly shortened commutes. Venting and electrical service in these older homes often require upgrades to support modern appliances and kitchen layouts, as the original infrastructure was not designed for today's demands. Gas lines, too, may need to be assessed and potentially rerouted or updated to accommodate contemporary kitchen designs and appliance placements.
Kitchen remodeling in Morton Grove requires permits for electrical, plumbing, and gas line work, as well as structural changes like wall removals. The Village's Building Department reviews plans and conducts inspections to ensure compliance with local amendments to the 2018 International Codes, and GS Construction manages all applications and schedules these crucial inspections.

We cannot say enough good things about GS Construction and about Greg and Patryk. We hired them on a strong recommendation from a friend and are very pleased with the results. Our project included remodeling a kitchen and master bathroom and adding wood floors to several rooms in our condo. We had definite ideas of what we wanted since we have done many remodeling projects in several previous homes, but both Patryk and Greg added great value with suggestions and ideas of their own based on their experience and talent. Their follow through was excellent and we feel confident that if anything needs attention, they will be there to make it right. P.S. They did a great clean up at the end of the project......i
