“…I felt truly heard and valued during our conversation. I came to your company with questions about our projects, and Greg provided thoughtful, flexible scenarios and options to help us achieve our goals. He genuinely seemed to care about me and my family as real people.”
Yes. In Wicker Park, any kitchen project with structural changes, new electrical, or moved plumbing needs a Chicago Department of Buildings permit. We pull and manage the city permits, which take longer than suburban towns, so we plan for it.
Most Wicker Park kitchen remodels run from about $38,000 for a mid-range update to $120,000 for a full open-concept renovation. We give you a fixed, line-item budget after design.
In Wicker Park’s Victorians, cottages, and greystones, the kitchen wall is usually load-bearing and carries the floors above. We confirm framing at a small inspection point and engineer a beam before removing it.
In Wicker Park’s century-old homes we find knob-and-tube wiring, galvanized lines, and old cast-iron waste. We flag anything during demo and fold the upgrade into the plan rather than springing a change order.
Usually yes once a wall comes down, and the larger Victorians have generous room. We model the island in your space first.
Most Wicker Park kitchen remodels take about six to nine weeks plus Chicago permit time. We give you a schedule and handle the city process up front.
