Your Home Remodeling Contractor in Kenilworth, Illinois
Kenilworth is one of the North Shore’s most exclusive villages — a planned community of large early-1900s Tudor, Colonial Revival, and Prairie-style homes, many by noted architects, set in a designated historic district. Kitchens in these homes were built for a formal era, so remodels here modernize them while respecting significant architecture.
We remodel kitchens throughout Kenilworth with the craftsmanship these homes demand. Our work opens up and updates the space while preserving the period detail that makes a Kenilworth home what it is.
Family Expansion
Kenilworth kitchen projects pull permits from the Village of Kenilworth, and the village's historic character means added review for significant homes. We handle the permits and approvals so the work stays on schedule.
Energy Efficiency
Kenilworth's architect-designed Tudors, Colonials, and Prairie homes have formal, compartmentalized kitchens. We open and modernize them while protecting the millwork, proportions, and detail that give these homes their value.
Historic Preservation
Kenilworth families want kitchens that work for how they live now without compromising a historic home. We design custom layouts and finishes that match the caliber of the house.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a permit for a kitchen remodel in Kenilworth?
In Kenilworth, any project involving structural changes, new electrical circuits, or plumbing alterations requires a permit from the Kenilworth Building Department. 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 Kenilworth?
Kitchen remodels in Kenilworth 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 Kenilworth kitchen is load-bearing?
In post-war ranch homes, split-levels, and brick colonials, 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 Kenilworth 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 Kenilworth home?
An island needs at least 42 inches of clearance on all sides for comfortable movement. Many post-war ranch homes, split-levels, and brick colonials 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 Kenilworth?
Most kitchen remodels in Kenilworth 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.
