Home Remodeling in Norwood Park

Our home remodeling services →Bathroom Remodeling in Norwood Park
Many Norwood Park owners want a bath that stays easy to use for years. We replace tubs with low-curb or curbless showers, add grab bars, a bench and a comfort-height toilet, and remodel the one hard-working main bath in brick bungalows.
Our bathroom remodeling services →Kitchen Remodeling in Norwood Park
Ranch kitchens in Oriole Park and around Union Ridge are often closed off from the living room. We plan new cabinets and counters, add an island where a wall comes out, and finish with a backsplash that fits the style of the house.
Our kitchen remodeling services →General Contracting in Norwood Park
Before a Norwood Park ranch wall comes out, we check if it is load-bearing and plan a beam so it can go safely. We handle City of Chicago permits and inspections, rebuild stairs and railings in older frame homes, and build porches, decks and patios.
Our general contracting services →Flooring in Norwood Park
Older frame homes near the Norwood Park Metra station have old trim and wood floors that owners like to keep, while post-war ranches suit easy-care floors. We refinish or replace hardwood, install LVP and tile with low, smooth transitions for step-free living, and floor finished basements.
