Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a permit for a kitchen remodel in Irving Park Chicago?
In Irving Park Chicago, any project involving structural changes, new electrical circuits, or plumbing alterations requires a permit from the Chicago Department of Buildings. Cosmetic updates like painting, new cabinet doors, and replacing fixtures with like-for-like models generally do not. Your Pegasus project manager will pull all required permits before any work begins.
How much does a kitchen remodel cost in Irving Park Chicago?
Kitchen remodels in Irving Park Chicago typically range from $25,000 for a mid-range update to $85,000 or more for a full high-end renovation. The biggest cost drivers are cabinet quality, countertop material, appliances, and whether the layout changes. Pegasus provides a detailed line-item estimate before any contract is signed.
How do I know if a wall in my Irving Park Chicago kitchen is load-bearing?
In vintage Chicago bungalows, two-flats, and greystones, walls running perpendicular to floor joists or sitting directly above a beam or foundation wall are often load-bearing. Our team identifies structural walls during the pre-construction walkthrough. If a wall needs to come down, we install a properly engineered header so you get the open layout you want safely.
What happens if there is old wiring or plumbing behind my kitchen walls?
It is one of the most common discoveries in Irving Park Chicago homes. Knob-and-tube wiring, galvanized pipes, or undersized drain lines often need to be brought up to current code before finishing. Pegasus walks you through any surprises immediately and provides updated cost options before proceeding.
Is a kitchen island realistic for my Irving Park Chicago home?
An island needs at least 42 inches of clearance on all sides for comfortable movement. Many vintage Chicago bungalows, two-flats, and greystones have kitchens that can accommodate a modest island once a layout is optimized. We show you a scaled floor plan during design so you can see exactly what is possible before any demo begins.
How long does a kitchen remodel take in Irving Park Chicago?
Most kitchen remodels in Irving Park Chicago take four to seven weeks from demo to punch list, depending on scope and material lead times. Cabinet and countertop orders are the longest lead items. Pegasus coordinates deliveries and trade schedules to minimize the time your kitchen is out of service.
