Residential Additions & Renovations

Room additions, kitchen and bathroom remodels, whole-home renovations, and basement finishing for homeowners in North Riverside and across the Chicagoland suburbs — designed and built by one accountable team.

What's Included

Residential Work We Handle

Every home and every family's needs are different, so scope varies project to project. Here's what we most often take on:

Room Additions

Bump-outs, family room and bedroom additions, and second-story additions that tie into your existing roofline, framing, and mechanicals.

Kitchen Remodels

Layout changes, cabinetry, counters, and finishes — including moving plumbing and electrical when the layout calls for it.

Bathroom Remodels

Full gut renovations or targeted updates — tile, fixtures, ventilation, and layout work done to code.

Whole-Home Renovations

Multi-room and whole-house renovations phased to keep your household livable while we work.

Basement Finishing

Turning unfinished basements into livable square footage, with attention to moisture control and egress requirements.

Structural & Framing Work

Load-bearing wall removal, structural repairs, and framing for any of the above — engineered and built to code.
