Your Home Remodeling Contractor in Northbrook, Illinois
Northbrook hit its stride in the 1960s and ’70s, and most of the housing stock shows it — ranch homes, split-levels, and bi-levels built solid but not designed for how families actually live today. That’s the work we do here. Pegasus Construction has remodeled homes throughout Northbrook, and we know what these houses look like inside: the single-story ranch with the galley kitchen that needs to open up, the split-level with the low-ceiling lower level, the bi-level where everyone’s tripping over each other because the layout was designed for a different era.
We come to you — Northbrook is part of our core service area. When you’re ready to talk about what your home could look like, call us at (773) 377-4898 or book a free design consultation online. We pull permits through the Village of Northbrook Development & Planning Services at 1225 Cedar Lane, so you don’t have to navigate the paperwork.

Frequently Asked Questions
What permits are required for a home remodel in Northbrook?
Most structural, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC work requires a permit from the Village of Northbrook Development & Planning Services at 1225 Cedar Lane. Applications can be filed through the Village’s online permit portal or in person at Village Hall. We handle the entire permit process on your behalf, including scheduling inspections.
How much does a home remodel cost in Northbrook?
In Northbrook, scope is usually driven by the age of the home. Many of our local projects are 1950s–’70s ranches and split-levels where opening a closed-off galley kitchen or updating original wiring and plumbing adds to the budget, while east-side estate and teardown-rebuild work runs at the top of these ranges. It depends on scope. Kitchen remodels typically run $60,000–$150,000, bathroom remodels $25,000–$80,000, and home additions $150,000–$400,000+. We provide a detailed estimate before any work starts, and our projects average just a 5% variance from initial budget to final price.
How long does a home remodel take in Northbrook?
Plan for permitting through the Village of Northbrook Development & Planning Services up front — Village review typically adds a couple of weeks before work begins, which we handle and schedule around. Kitchen remodels typically take 6–12 weeks, bathrooms 4–8 weeks, and home additions 4–10 months depending on scope. We assign a dedicated team to every project and average less than a 2-day variance from our original schedule.
Can you work on 1960s and 1970s ranch homes in Northbrook?
Yes — this is exactly the housing stock we work with most in Northbrook. Ranch and split-level homes from this era often have galley kitchens, small bathrooms, and compartmentalized floor plans. We specialize in opening these up and modernizing them without demolishing what’s still good.
Does Pegasus Construction handle multi-generational home remodels?
Absolutely. We design for multi-generational living regularly — separate entrances, accessible main-floor suites, secondary kitchenettes, and ADA-compliant bathrooms. If your family’s needs are changing, we can design a remodel that works for everyone under one roof. Northbrook’s split-levels and raised ranches are especially well-suited to this — the lower level often converts into a private in-law suite with its own entrance, and wide ranch footprints make a single-level accessible suite straightforward.
Do you serve all Northbrook neighborhoods?
We work throughout all of Northbrook — Mission Hills, Sunset Fields, Royal Ridge, the Northbrook Highlands, and the neighborhoods around Northbrook Court and the Village Green. If you’re not sure we serve your specific street, just call — we almost certainly do.
Is a home remodel in Northbrook a good investment?
Northbrook holds value well. Strong demand for homes in the Glenbrook North district, plus proximity to Northbrook Court, the Metra, and the forest preserves, keeps well-renovated kitchens, baths, and additions in demand here. Generally yes. Northbrook home values are solid, and kitchen and bathroom remodels consistently recover 60–80% of their cost in resale value. Home additions that add square footage often perform even better because the suburb has limited new construction inventory. A well-planned remodel here is both a lifestyle improvement and a smart financial move.
