Lake Forest permits & building codes
The City of Lake Forest issues its own building permits, and homes in the city's five local historic districts — or designated landmarks — also need a certificate of appropriateness from the Historic Preservation Commission before exterior alterations, additions, or demolition can proceed. One homeowner-friendly wrinkle: the city waives permit fees when a project includes replacing a lead water service line. GS Construction manages the full permit process for Lake Forest projects, from historic-review submittals through final inspections.

Testimonials

Real reviews from homeowners. Ask us for live phone references.
I did not realize I haven't written a review of GS yet. We remodeled our kitchen during the summer of 2020. Patryk was outstanding. He was even ahead of our estimated timeline by the end of the project (we were held up a little because of our cabinets - Patryk obviously couldn't control that, but he did make sure that other tasks were completed so that when the cabinets did come in, we still basically finished on time). The professionalism was top notch, and the quality was outstanding. I would recommend GS for any project.
