Home additions in Palatine, IL

Palatine's housing maps its growth rings: a core platted in 1855 around today's downtown Metra station on the UP-NW line, 1920s subdivisions like Palatine Manor, then the postwar boom that built most of the village — Winston Park platted from 1957, Reseda and Virginia Lake in the 1960s, Peppertree from 1967 onward — full of the ranches, split-levels, and two-stories we remodel most. In that stock, kitchen walls come down, hall and primary baths get rebuilt on smarter footprints, and basements become real living space (one local wrinkle: a remodel that exposes engineered wood floor joists can trigger a residential sprinkler requirement). Water is Lake Michigan supply through the Village's own system, and older homes may still have lead or galvanized service lines the Village cost-shares replacing — worth bundling with any plumbing-heavy project. With District 15 schools, Fremd and Palatine High, and Harper College anchoring family life, whole-home remodels and additions often beat moving.

Palatine permits & building codes for home additions

Palatine runs permitting entirely online through its Citizen Self Service (CSS) portal — paper applications are not accepted — and kitchen, bath, and basement remodels all take a standard permit, with the Village's published review goal of 10-15 business days (5 for express items like roofs and water heaters). Contractors must be registered and bonded with the Village, plans are reviewed against the 2021 codes with Illinois amendments, and sequencing matters: every trade rough inspection must pass before the rough-frame inspection, though interior-only remodels skip the plat-of-survey requirement. GS Construction manages the full permit process — CSS submittal, drawings, contractor registration, and inspections through the final certificate — on every Palatine project.

5 Stars

GS Construction is a reliable contractor who did top quality work at a reasonable price. We completed a first floor remodel (kitchen renovation with wall removal, half bath remodel, new hardwood floors, updated laundry room) which required carpenters, plumbers, hvac and painters. Their attention to detail is amazing and the work was completed right on schedule. We are beyond thrilled with our updated house! I would recommend GS in a heartbeat and will definitely call on them when it is time to update the rest of the house.
