Basement finishing in Schiller Park, IL

Schiller Park is a true postwar village — incorporated in 1914, it boomed alongside O'Hare in the 1950s and annexed the Fairview, Frogtown, and Indian Park subdivisions by 1960. Most homes date to that era: brick bungalows and ranches on compact, sidewalk-lined lots, mixed with two-flats and small condo buildings. That vintage shapes our work here — opening up tight galley kitchens, rebuilding original bathrooms, and finishing basements into real living space; where families need more square footage, modest lots make a well-planned addition the answer. The village supplies its own Lake Michigan water, purchased through Chicago, and is currently inventorying lead service lines — worth confirming your line's material before a plumbing-heavy remodel, and something we flag during planning. Kids attend District 81's Kennedy, Washington, and Lincoln schools and the Leyden high schools, and the Metra North Central Service station on Ruby Street connects commuters to Union Station.

Schiller Park permits & building codes for basement remodels

The Village of Schiller Park's Community Development Department handles building permits through its online Community Core portal, and contractors must carry an annually renewed village license with insurance and bond on file. Plan requirements scale with the project: kitchen remodels and additions over $10,000 call for designer-prepared drawings, while projects over 500 square feet or $20,000 need an Illinois-licensed architect or structural engineer. Electrical, plumbing, and HVAC work each require supplemental applications and their own inspections. GS Construction manages the full permit process — Community Core submission, licensed-trade paperwork, and inspection scheduling — from application through final sign-off.

5 Stars

We were so fortunate to have been directed to GS Construction (Patryk, Greg, and the crew) for our home remodel. My wife's parents did a complete first floor remodel, which turned out amazing. The attention to detail was obvious and that was enough for my wife and I to feel completely at ease when we hired GS to do our project as well. From consultation to finish, Patryk and Greg were completely professional and reliable, and able to turn our lofty vision into a reality. In fact, they employed their knowledge and expertise to make our project far better than expected. Besides a kitchen demo and remodel, essentially an entire first-floor remodel, and multiple second-floor projects, we even unexpectedly made the decision halfway through the project to completely refinish the basement and turn this portion of the home from an unusable space, or at best a storage area, to a beautiful, functional area that matches the beauty of the rest of the home. In summary, GS Construction's knowledge, workmanship, creativity, and customer service make it a pleasure to write this review and unyieldingly recommend GS Construction for a construction project of any size! Thank you, Patryk and Greg!
