Whole-home remodeling in Wilmette, IL

East Wilmette is pre-war to its brick streets: the CAGE neighborhood — named for Chestnut, Ashland, Greenwood, and Elmwood — holds colonials, Tudors, Victorians, and foursquares built from the 1890s to the 1930s, a short walk from Gillson Park and the 1928 Spanish Court arcades of Plaza del Lago. Farther west, the stock turns mid-century near Edens Plaza. GS Construction remodels both eras: kitchens that open compartmented pre-war plans, baths and basements that retire galvanized supply lines and tired drain tile, and additions and whole-home projects scaled to Wilmette lots. One Wilmette-specific note: the Village's 2024 policy replaces its roughly 2,200 remaining lead service lines at no cost through the village-wide program — but a replacement triggered by an addition or service upgrade is the owner's expense, so we time that piece deliberately. Most of the village feeds District 39 and then New Trier, with the Metra UP-N and the Purple Line's Linden terminal handling the commute.

Wilmette permits & building codes for whole-home remodels

Wilmette permits go through Community Development at 1200 Wilmette Avenue — paper submittals are preferred (electronic filings take longer to issue) — with a published goal of 10 business days per reviewer for first review. Plans need an Illinois architect's or structural engineer's stamp for structural work or projects over $25,000, reviewers can require one even below that for kitchens, baths, and basement remodels, and every contractor on the permit must hold a Wilmette contractor license before issuance. Exterior work on a designated Wilmette landmark needs a no-fee Certificate of Appropriateness from the Historic Preservation Commission first, and the village also maintains an Appearance Review Commission for design review. GS Construction manages the full permit process — applications, stamped drawings, contractor licensing, and phone-scheduled inspections — on every Wilmette project.

5 Stars

Patryk (and team) were the best to work with. They helped us with a remodel on our basement (including the addition of a dry bar about 4 months later) and we couldn't be happier with the finished product. They were transparent with us through the entire project (through crazy supply chain issues). When they couldn't get something they were up front with us providing options that might be easier to secure to finish the project in a more timely manner. His entire team is honesty so delightful to work with and have in my home. I've had contractors in my house where it's somewhat uncomfortable and Patryk's team is all amazing. The communication about when they would be coming by was seamless. And as a woman (who was basically running this project) they weren't condescending or rude to me either. I cannot wait to work with them again and would hire them in a heartbeat.
