Expert Whole-Home Remodeling Services
A whole-home remodel lives or dies on the order things happen in. We run it as one job, with one schedule and one number to call: Greg or Patryk here on site, trades we've used for years rather than whoever happens to be free that week, and a portal showing you the schedule, any change orders and your balance. You shouldn't have to project-manage your own house.
- Scope
- Multi-room and full gut renovations
- Supervision
- Daily, by the owners
- Permits
- Pulled and managed by us
Ranges are typical for our Chicagoland projects — see full cost breakdowns. Your itemized estimate is free.
What We Offer
One schedule, one contract
Every room in a single itemized scope, sequenced so plumbing, electrical and HVAC happen before anything closes up.
Structural changes
Removing walls and opening up floor plans, with engineering and permits for anything load-bearing.
Systems upgrades
Electrical service, plumbing supply lines and HVAC brought up to what a modern house actually draws.
Kitchens & baths as part of the whole
The rooms that drive the schedule, planned against the rest of the house rather than in isolation.
Flooring & trim continuity
Materials and transitions that run correctly room to room, which is what makes a renovation read as one project.
Phased or all-at-once
We will tell you honestly which is cheaper for your scope, and whether you can realistically stay in the house.

In-depth guides
Our Process
ProcessThe same six stages on every job — free in-home estimate through warranty.
Free in-home estimate
Greg or Patryk — the owners, not a salesperson — walk your space, take real measurements, and give you honest feedback on what your budget buys.
Itemized scope & contract
Labor, materials, demolition and disposal priced line by line, not one mystery number. Payment terms and warranty are in the written contract.
Design & selections
Bring your own designer, use our architects and designers, or choose everything yourself. Selections are scheduled ahead so lead times never stall the site.
Permits & scheduling
We pull and manage building, plumbing and electrical permits with your village — typically 1–2 weeks — and hand you a written schedule before demo day.
The build, owner-supervised
Long-standing trade partners working in sequence under daily owner supervision. Your client portal shows the schedule, change orders and current balance.
Walkthrough & warranty
We walk the finished job together, close out every punch-list item, hand over manufacturer paperwork, and your written workmanship warranty starts. Our commitment never expires.
What’s Included
Labor & installation we include
- Single itemized scope covering every room in the project
- Demolition, structural work and mechanical upgrades
- All trade coordination and scheduling
- Drywall, paint, flooring and finish carpentry
- Permits and inspections across every trade
- Final walkthrough, punch list and warranty paperwork
You supply / quoted separately
- Finish materials — cabinetry, countertops, tile, flooring, plumbing and lighting fixtures, doors and hardware
- Appliances, which you choose and buy
- Temporary housing, if the scope makes staying impractical
You choose and purchase the finish materials; we specify what is needed, schedule it against the build, and install it. Listed openly so nothing on your final invoice is a surprise.
