Bathroom Remodeling in Montclare, Close to Home

Montclare is a small, quiet neighborhood on Chicago’s far Northwest Side, right next to Elmwood Park. Rutherford Sayre Park on Belden Avenue is its green center.

The streets are lined with Chicago bungalows, brick Georgians and raised ranches. Most were built before 1960, and many bathrooms have not been touched in decades.

This page is about bathroom remodeling in Montclare. It covers full remodels, new showers, tile and vanities for the homes you find here.

Bathroom Remodeling Across Montclare

Montclare is small, but each part of it has its own kind of home.

Rutherford Sayre Park

Bungalows on the blocks around the park. The main-floor bath is small, so every inch of the layout counts.

Near the Montclare Metra Station

Commuter homes close to the train. Owners want a bathroom that makes busy mornings easier.

Grand Avenue

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

Near Galewood-Mont Clare Library

Brick Georgians with a second-floor bath. Tile, venting and lighting often all need an update.

Harlem Avenue & Elmwood Park

Across Harlem, the homes are much the same. See basement finishing in Elmwood Park.

Riis Park, to the East

Past Narragansett Avenue in Belmont Cragin. See our bathroom remodeler near Riis Park page.

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.

Montclare Bathroom Remodeling FAQ

Montclare is part of Chicago, so work that moves plumbing, wiring or walls usually needs a City of Chicago permit. We handle it for you.

A lot. A walk-in shower, a wall-hung or slim vanity and good lighting can make a small bath feel much bigger.

Often, yes. We check the drain height and plan the plumbing first. Some basements need an ejector pump.
