Winnetka is one of the North Shore’s most storied communities, and its kitchens sit in significant early-1900s Tudors, Georgians, and Colonial Revivals as well as mid-century and custom homes, many on large, wooded lots. These kitchens are often grand but compartmentalized in the formal style of their era. We remodel Winnetka kitchens to open, light-filled spaces that honor the architecture, and we handle Village of Winnetka permitting.
At Pegasus Construction, our mission is to help Winnetka homeowners transform their current kitchen into their dream kitchen. However, not every kitchen remodeling project is the right match for our team. Here’s how to determine if Pegasus Construction is the right fit for your kitchen remodel.

In Winnetka’s older Tudors, Georgians, and Colonials, interior walls are frequently load-bearing and carry upper floors. We open a small inspection point to verify before committing to a layout and engineer any beam up front.
In century-old Winnetka homes we routinely find knob-and-tube wiring and galvanized supply lines. We flag anything during demo, show you the issue, and fold the fix into the plan.
Usually yes. Winnetka kitchens are often large enough for a generous island once opened up. We model clearances in your space during design.
Most Winnetka kitchen remodels take about six to ten weeks, with high-end custom work and historic detail on the longer end. We give you a week-by-week schedule up front.
