Home Remodeling in Mount Prospect, IL
Mount Prospect is a village in the northwest suburbs, between Arlington Heights and Des Plaines. Randhurst Village, the shopping center on Rand Road, sits on its north side.
Much of the village grew after World War II. Ranches, Cape Cods, split-levels and raised ranches fill the side streets, and many still have their first kitchen and bath.
This page is about home remodeling in Mount Prospect. It covers kitchens, bathrooms, basements and the updates behind the walls that older homes need.
Tell us what you want to change. We will set up a free visit at your home at a time that works for you.

Plans That Fit Mount Prospect Home Styles
- Ranches: one floor and often a full basement. Easy to plan a step-free bath and a big room below.
- Cape Cods: small upstairs rooms under the roof. Dormers and built-in storage make them more useful.
- Split-levels: short stairs and a lower level that works well as a family room or office.
- Raised ranches: the kitchen sits on the upper level, often with room for a peninsula.
What Is Behind the Walls of a Post-War Home
Many Mount Prospect homes are decades old. When we open walls, we often find work to do first. We:
- Replace old galvanized water lines while the walls are open
- Check the electrical panel and add circuits for new appliances
- Add insulation to outside walls before new drywall goes up
- Run bath fans and range hoods to the outside
