Arlington Heights is a Northwest suburb of 1950s–70s ranches, split-levels, and colonials, with newer construction mixed in. Their kitchens were often built closed off from the rest of the house, and opening them up is most of what we do here.
At Pegasus Construction, our mission is to help Arlington Heights homeowners transform their current kitchen into their dream kitchen. However, not every kitchen remodeling project is the right match for our team. Here’s how to determine if Pegasus Construction is the right fit for your kitchen remodel.

“…I felt truly heard and valued during our conversation. I came to your company with questions about our projects, and Greg provided thoughtful, flexible scenarios and options to help us achieve our goals. He genuinely seemed to care about me and my family as real people.”
Most Arlington Heights kitchens we work on are in 1950s–70s ranches, split-levels, and colonials where the kitchen was built closed off from the rest of the house. The most common project is opening it to the family room and rebuilding for an island, storage, and modern flow.
Yes — kitchen remodels that touch plumbing, electrical, or structure need a permit from the Village of Arlington Heights Building Division at 33 S. Arlington Heights Road. We handle the application, plan review, and inspections so you don’t have to.
Usually yes, but split-levels and ranches often have load-bearing walls tied to the mid-century framing. We confirm what’s structural and size a proper beam before anything comes down.
Most Arlington Heights kitchen remodels run between roughly $40,000 and $85,000 depending on cabinets, layout changes, and finishes. We give you a fixed, itemized number before any work starts.
Many homes here still have original wiring, cast-iron drains, or an undersized electrical panel. When we open the kitchen we show you what’s there and tell you straight what’s worth updating while the walls are open.
Yes. Whether it’s a mid-century ranch or a brick colonial, we design the kitchen to fit the house — trim, cabinetry, and proportions that look like they belong rather than a generic remodel dropped in.
Plan on about 7 to 11 weeks of construction, plus a few weeks up front for design and the Village permit. Older homes can add time if we find outdated wiring or plumbing, and we flag that early.
Yes — the closed-off original kitchens in Arlington Heights ranches and split-levels feel dated to buyers. A well-built, open kitchen both helps the home sell and makes daily life better.
