Park Ridge Kitchen Remodeling
GS CONSTRUCTION & REMODELING
GS Construction & Remodeling has remodeled kitchens for Park Ridge homeowners since 2015. Gregory and Patryk are a father-son team with more than 40 years between them, and one of them is on your job personally.
A Park Ridge kitchen usually takes 8–12 weeks, and Greg or Patryk is here for those weeks — not a project manager passing your questions along. We pull the Park Ridge permits, bring in the trades we've worked with for years in the right order, and price every line of it before demo day.

Kitchen remodeling in Park Ridge, IL
Kitchen remodeling in Park Ridge often involves transforming the compartmentalized layouts typical of brick bungalows and Tudor Revivals from the 1910s and '20s. These homes frequently feature kitchens that were originally designed as smaller, separate workspaces, now ripe for opening up into adjacent dining or living areas. For the wartime Georgians and 1950s–'60s ranches and split-levels, the focus shifts to updating finishes, improving functionality, and integrating modern appliances. Many projects in Park Ridge involve removing interior walls to achieve the open-concept living spaces homeowners desire, particularly in homes with solid masonry construction.
What Park Ridge homeowners ask for
Park Ridge homeowners frequently request island installations or expanded peninsulas to create more counter space and informal dining. We often hear requests for dedicated pantry solutions, especially in older homes where original storage was limited. Another common desire is for enhanced task and ambient lighting, moving beyond single overhead fixtures to layered illumination.
About Park Ridge
Park Ridge's housing tells the story of its development, from early 20th-century commuter homes to postwar ranches, and remodeling often involves opening up compartmentalized floor plans behind solid masonry.
Park Ridge began as Brickton, the clay-pit town that supplied Chicago's builders, and its housing still tells that story: the 1910s–'20s commuter boom filled the blocks around Uptown and the 1928 Pickwick Theatre with brick bungalows and Tudor Revivals, wartime Georgians followed (many built for Douglas Aircraft plant workers), and 1950s–'60s ranches and split-levels rounded out the postwar edges. Metra's UP-NW stops at Uptown and Dee Road keep the Loop close.
The 1910s–'20s brick bungalows and Tudor Revivals often present kitchens with original footprints that were smaller and separated, requiring wall removal for modern open concepts, which is significant given their solid masonry construction. Wartime Georgians, many built for Douglas Aircraft plant workers, and 1950s–'60s ranches and split-levels, frequently need updates to their gas and electrical service to accommodate contemporary appliances and layouts. Venting solutions often need to be modernized to handle the increased power of new range hoods in these varied eras of homes. Furthermore, the city's ongoing inventory of lead water service lines is a crucial consideration for any project touching water supply lines, particularly in older homes, as the city runs its own water system on Lake Michigan water.
Kitchen remodeling in Park Ridge always triggers permits for electrical and plumbing work, and potentially for gas line modifications or structural changes. Inspections are required at various stages for these trades, and GS Construction & Remodeling manages all necessary applications and inspection scheduling through the city's Citizen Self Service portal.

Greg and Patryk do amazing work and are incredible to work with! GS Construction completed two extensive bathroom renovations for us, including completely reconfiguring layouts and expanding one.

Patryk and Greg are great communicators, take pride in their work, and have good attention to detail. Throughout the project, they really listened to us, took the time to understand what we wanted, kept progress going in a timely manner, and provided expert advice/suggestions and help on specific questions along the way.
