Older homes and flats near the shops. Tub-to-shower changes are a common request here.

Our home remodeling services →Bathroom Remodeling in Montclare
Bungalows around Rutherford Sayre Park have one small main-floor bath where every inch of the layout counts. We plan walk-in showers with glass doors, slim vanities and good lighting, and in Georgians we check the floor framing before heavy tile or a tub goes in.
Our bathroom remodeling services →Kitchen Remodeling in Montclare
Commuter homes near the Montclare Metra station need a kitchen that makes busy mornings easier. We add cabinets with better storage, new counters and backsplash, or an island where the room allows, so the morning rush has room to move.
Our kitchen remodeling services →General Contracting in Montclare
Brick Georgians near the Galewood-Mont Clare Library often have a closed wall between the kitchen and dining room. We check whether it is load-bearing, plan the beam and handle the City of Chicago permit, and we also build and repair porches, decks and home additions.
Our general contracting services →Flooring in Montclare
Montclare's Georgians and raised ranches mix upstairs bedrooms, main-floor baths and basements, and each needs a different floor. We refinish or install hardwood upstairs, set tile in baths and kitchens and use LVP in basements, with level transitions between rooms.

Plans That Fit Montclare Home Styles
- Bungalows: one small bath on the main floor. We plan storage and light so it feels bigger.
- Georgians: baths upstairs. We check the floor framing before heavy tile or a tub goes in.
- Raised ranches: easy access and room for a step-free shower.
- Basements: many homes can add a second bath downstairs.
What We Check Before New Tile Goes In
Older Montclare homes often hide problems behind the tile. We:
- Open the walls and check the pipes
- Fix soft or uneven floors
- Waterproof the shower before tiling
- Add a quiet vent fan that vents outside
Permits and Scheduling in Chicago
- Most remodels that move plumbing, wiring or walls need a City of Chicago building permit.
- We prepare the plans, file the permit and book the inspections.
- Two-flat owners: we plan work hours and water shut-offs so the other unit is not surprised.
- We plan street or alley space for the dumpster and deliveries before work starts.
