Streamwood Home Remodeling
GS CONSTRUCTION & REMODELING
GS Construction & Remodeling has remodeled homes for Streamwood 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.
Whole-home work lives or dies on the order things happen in. We run it as one job with one schedule and one number to call, with an owner here on site and a portal showing you the schedule, any change orders and your balance — so the trades aren't tripping over each other and you aren't running your own remodel.
- Free in-home estimate from an owner, not a salesperson
- One itemized scope and one schedule across every room
- Permits and inspections handled with Streamwood across every trade
- Workmanship warranty on the whole project — our commitment never expires
"One scope, one schedule, one point of contact."

Whole-home remodeling in Streamwood, IL
Whole-home remodeling in Streamwood often focuses on homes built from the late 1950s through the 1980s, which feature distinct architectural styles and construction methods. These projects typically involve transforming the entire interior, addressing original floor plans that may feel compartmentalized by today’s standards. Many homes from these decades present opportunities to reconfigure living spaces, update all major systems, and harmonize disparate design elements that have accumulated over time. A typical whole-home renovation here frequently includes structural modifications to open up living areas, comprehensive updates to all living spaces from kitchens to bedrooms, and modernizing electrical and plumbing infrastructure. Our work in Streamwood brings these established residences into the 21st century while respecting their foundational character.
What Streamwood homeowners ask for
Streamwood homeowners undertaking whole-home remodels frequently request open-concept living by removing non-load-bearing walls between kitchens, dining, and living rooms. Another common request is for master suite additions or reconfigurations, often incorporating walk-in closets and luxurious en-suite bathrooms within the existing footprint or a modest expansion. Families also often prioritize creating dedicated mudrooms or functional entryways to manage daily clutter, especially in homes without original, clearly defined transitional spaces.
About Streamwood
Streamwood grew up fast after incorporating in 1957, with successive building waves that ran through the 1990s. That history shapes remodeling here: kitchens and bathrooms in these late-20th-century homes are ready for full updates or whole-home renovations.
The first houses were prefabs from National Homes, assembled on concrete slabs near Bartlett and Schaumburg Roads by local contractor Maxon Construction. Successive building waves that ran through the 1990s added neighborhoods like Woodland Heights off Irving Park Road. Commuters catch Metra's Milwaukee District West line in neighboring Bartlett or Hanover Park, Streamwood's partners in the Tri-Village area.
Whole-home remodeling in Streamwood often involves working with the initial prefab homes on concrete slabs, which means careful planning for new plumbing routes and system access where traditional basements are absent. For homes in later building waves like Woodland Heights, opening up floor plans often requires assessing the structural implications of removing walls in conventionally framed homes, a different challenge than slab construction. The presence of Streamwood High School on Schaumburg Road and the overall School District U-46 encourages families to invest in additions to accommodate growth, often necessitating seamless integration with existing structures. With the Village's lead-free water service lines, plumbing updates can focus on modernizing fixtures and layouts without the added complexity of service line replacement. Sequencing a whole-home remodel in Streamwood while families live through it benefits from the local contractor experience with both slab and conventionally built homes, allowing for strategic staging of work to minimize disruption.
Whole-home remodeling projects in Streamwood, particularly those involving structural changes or system replacements, require detailed plan review from the Building Department. This includes inspections at critical phases like framing, rough-in electrical, and plumbing. GS Construction & Remodeling manages all permit applications, engineering submissions, and coordinates every necessary inspection with the Village to ensure compliance.

GS Construction was the contractor recommended to us for our remodeling project by our designer, Jenn Peterson of J. Peterson Design. The project involved gutting most of the first floor and doing a complete remodel of the kitchen and family room on a 53 year-old home. We could not be more pleased with the work, responsiveness, timeliness and the outcome. Greg and Patryk (Greg's son) are great people. They worked seamlessly with Jenn and had no issue with working to change some of the plans on the fly. They identified some structural issues natural to an older home and resolved them quickly and in very cost-effective ways. We had more contact with Patryk, who walked us through the project step by step from beginning to end. He was always available to talk to us and kept the project on schedule. Any change orders or other modifications were handled quickly and professionally. We recommend GC Construction without any reservations. They do great work and were fun to work with as well. Jim and Dana P The quality of the workmanship was first-rate and our space is exactly what we were hoping for. They were very reasonably priced and
