Remodeling in Northfield, IL
GS Construction provides expert remodeling services to homeowners in Northfield and throughout New Trier Township. As a family-owned and operated contractor with deep roots in the Chicago suburbs, we understand the unique needs of North Shore homes.
Northfield's housing stock is largely a postwar story: most homes here date from the 1950s onward, spanning mid-century ranches and classic colonials to custom contemporaries on generous wooded lots.
Northfield's housing stock is largely a postwar story: most homes here date from the 1950s onward, spanning mid-century ranches and classic colonials to custom contemporaries on generous wooded lots — including a small enclave of Carl Koch's prefab Techbuilt homes off Old Willow Road. Daily life centers on the Happ Road Village Center just west of the Edens, with Sunset Ridge District 29 schools and New Trier's freshman campus right in town.
That mix keeps our work varied: kitchen and bath renovations in mid-century houses, basement build-outs, additions, and whole-home remodels of older ranches that families would rather transform than tear down. One Northfield-specific note: the Village buys Lake Michigan water through Winnetka, and homes on its lead service line inventory are eligible for 50% reimbursement (capped at $10,000) when the line is replaced — a remodel is the smart time to bundle that work, and we plan for it.
Remodeling projects in Northfield go through the Village's Community Development Department at 361 Happ Road, which handles plan review, permit issuance, and inspections. New construction, additions, and remodels require a building permit application plus separate electrical, plumbing, and HVAC applications, along with a floor area ratio worksheet and tree preservation review where applicable. The Village also enforces construction hours — weekdays 7 am to 7 pm, Saturdays 9 am to 5 pm, and Sundays and holidays noon to 5 pm. GS Construction manages the entire permit process, from application packets and plan review through inspection scheduling.
