Your Home Remodeling Contractor in Skokie, Illinois
Skokie was built out fast after World War II — ranches, split-levels, and brick bungalows filled in block by block through the 1950s and into the ’60s, creating a dense, well-maintained village of single-family homes. The construction is solid and the neighborhoods are stable, but the kitchens and bathrooms in these homes were designed for a household that no longer exists.
Remodeling in Skokie means working within the realities of mid-century construction — load-bearing walls between kitchen and dining room, older plumbing and electrical, and floor plans that were built for a different era of family life. Pegasus has worked throughout Skokie and knows exactly what these homes require from a contractor who’s done this work before.
Skokie Home Remodeling Permits
Remodeling permits in Skokie go through the Community Development Department at Village Hall, 5127 Oakton Street. We handle permit applications, coordinate with the village, and manage all inspections so projects stay on schedule.
Ranch and Split-Level Remodeling
Skokie's ranches and split-levels have closed floor plans that were standard in 1955 and feel disconnected today — kitchens in the back, living rooms cut off from the rest of the house. Opening them up requires a structural assessment first. We do that before any plans are drawn.
Brick Bungalow Work
Skokie also has a strong stock of brick bungalows, many with original hardwood floors, built-in cabinetry, and exterior brickwork that's held up for 70 years. We modernize these homes — kitchens, baths, and living spaces — while respecting the construction quality that makes them worth renovating in the first place.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kinds of home remodeling do you do in Skokie?
We’re a design-build remodeler handling kitchens, bathrooms, home additions, basements, and whole-house projects in Skokie, where the housing is mostly 1920s–50s brick bungalows, Georgians, and ranches. We manage design through construction under one roof, so one accountable team carries your project from the first sketch to the final walkthrough.
Do I need a permit to remodel my home in Skokie?
Most projects that touch plumbing, electrical, or structure do. Permits go through the Village of Skokie, and we handle the application, plan review, and inspections so you don’t have to navigate the process yourself.
How much does a home remodel cost in Skokie?
It depends on scope. In Skokie, kitchen remodels typically run $35,000 to $110,000, bathrooms $15,000 to $60,000, and home additions $250 to $425 per square foot. After the design phase we give you a fixed, line-item budget so there are no surprises.
Can you add a dormer or full second story to my Skokie bungalow?
Yes. Many Skokie bungalows were built solid enough to carry a dormer or full second story, which is the most popular way to add bedrooms and a primary suite without leaving the block. We verify the foundation and framing with a structural engineer first.
How do you protect the original character of a Skokie bungalow during a remodel?
We preserve and restore the features that make these homes special — quarter-sawn oak trim, built-ins, leaded glass, and the brick exterior — while fully modernizing the kitchen, baths, and the systems behind the walls.
Why choose Pegasus Construction for your Skokie remodel?
We know Skokie — one of the area’s densest, most diverse villages — handle the local permitting, and give you a fixed budget and schedule up front, backed by clear communication and a single point of accountability. Book a free design consultation to get started.
