Your Home Remodeling Contractor in Lincolnwood, Illinois
Lincolnwood is a close-in suburb just north of Chicago, known for its solid mid-century brick ranches and split-levels on well-kept lots, plus a growing number of custom rebuilds. Kitchens in the original homes were built compact and closed off, so most remodels here open them up and bring them up to date.
We remodel kitchens throughout Lincolnwood, from 1950s and ’60s ranches to newer construction. Our work modernizes the layout and finishes while keeping the solid structure these homes were built with.
Lincolnwood Kitchen Permit Requirements
Kitchen projects in Lincolnwood that move walls, plumbing, or electrical pull permits from the Village of Lincolnwood. We handle the applications and inspections so the work stays on schedule.
Opening the Ranch and Bungalow Kitchen
Lincolnwood's mid-century brick ranches and split-levels have closed-off kitchens that don't match how people live now. We open them to the rest of the house where the structure allows while keeping the home's solid bones.
Split-Level Kitchen Updates
Lincolnwood families want kitchens that handle cooking, homework, and gathering at once. We design islands, storage, and open layouts that fit how your household actually uses the space.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a permit for a kitchen remodel in Lincolnwood?
In Lincolnwood, any project involving structural changes, new electrical circuits, or plumbing alterations requires a permit from the Lincolnwood 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 Lincolnwood?
Kitchen remodels in Lincolnwood 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 Lincolnwood 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 Lincolnwood 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 Lincolnwood 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 Lincolnwood?
Most kitchen remodels in Lincolnwood 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.
