Serving Oak Park, IL homeowners

Oak Park may be the most architecturally protected place we work. Three local historic districts — Frank Lloyd Wright-Prairie School of Architecture, Ridgeland-Oak Park, and Gunderson — cover much of the village, and the Wright district holds the world's largest concentration of Prairie School homes, anchored by the Wright Home and Studio and UNESCO-listed Unity Temple. Much of the housing predates 1940: Victorians, stucco Prairie designs, brick bungalows, and two-flats with plaster walls, original trim, and aging mechanicals. GS Construction works with that fabric rather than against it — kitchens reworked within a landmark envelope, baths and basements modernized around vintage wiring and plumbing, whole-home renovations that keep street-facing character ready for historic review. On the utility side, the village buys Lake Michigan water pretreated at Chicago's Jardine plant, and older blocks may still carry private-side lead service lines — the village replaces the public portion at no cost, so we scope the owner's parkway-to-house run alongside major plumbing work.

Oak Park permits & building codes for remodeling projects

Oak Park routes permit applications through the village's Development Customer Services Department, and if a home sits in one of the three local historic districts — Frank Lloyd Wright-Prairie School of Architecture, Ridgeland-Oak Park, or Gunderson — or is a designated landmark, exterior alterations also require a certificate of appropriateness reviewed by the Historic Preservation Commission. That review targets exterior work, so interior kitchen and bath remodels typically proceed on standard building permits, while structural, electrical, and plumbing changes are all permitted and inspected. GS Construction manages the full permit process, historic-review submittals included, for every Oak Park project.

5 Stars

G&S construction did a complete renovation of my bathroom. They came highly recommended and they did a wonderful job. I felt very comfortable giving them my house key so that they could come and go while I was at work. I love my new bathroom!
