Winnetka permits & building codes for remodeling projects
Winnetka has no online permit portal — applications are Village PDF forms filed with Community Development at 510 Green Bay Road, and interior remodels typically clear plan review in two to three weeks (additions closer to three). Since January 1, 2024, major permit fees run 3% of estimated construction value, and a permit is triggered by structural work, any electrical, plumbing, or mechanical changes, or removing 100 square feet or more of drywall or plaster. The Landmark Preservation Commission reviews alterations to designated landmarks and weighs in on demolition applications. GS Construction manages the full permit process — scope-of-work packets, trade worksheets, and phone-scheduled inspections — on every Winnetka project.
Completed projects around Winnetka

Our project turned out better than we expected and as things were going along, we added more projects. Patryk, Greg and their team did a fantastic job. They were always so nice to work with, even suggesting things which was helpful. They never left a project until they thought it was perfect. We did a full kitchen remodel, even closing off a window to move a fridge and pantry to the other side to allow more cabinets and much needed counter space. They widen the entrance and the kitchen seems so much bigger. We think it’s Beautiful! They did laminated floors throughout the first floor, painted all walls and new baseboards. They created a wine bar which was just a cubby hole. They put in a pantry like cubby hole in our laundry room and added cabinets and above wall unit. One of the projects we had them add is new wooden stairs to the 2nd floor, white spindles and railing that curves instead of a wall and laminate floors on the 2nd floor. Other odd and ends that they never hesitated to do. We appreciate all they have done in our home, To us, it’s amazing how nice it is and how it should have been all the years we have lived here. Its exciting to show it off, it feels like a new house. These guys are amazing and would definately recommend them to anyone. Very reliable and easy to get in contact with when needed.
