Custom homes on the largest lots in Will County deserve lower levels built to the same standard, and in Homer Glen that increasingly means a private recovery suite. Cedar sauna, cold plunge, steam shower, heated floors, finished to match the rest of the house rather than looking like an afterthought bolted into a basement.
One Homer Glen detail we plan around early: many properties run on septic, which shapes where drains, steam showers, and bathrooms can reasonably go. ONIT designs the whole water and ventilation picture first, then the rooms. Free in-home design consultations, itemized quotes, permits handled, financing available on larger projects.
It starts with a free in-home design consultation. We measure your basement, check moisture and mechanicals, and talk through how you want the space to live. You get a design and an itemized quote, we handle permits and inspections, and one team runs the build from the first cut to the final walkthrough. Most projects take 6 to 12 weeks of construction.
No, but it changes the design conversation, so we have it first. Septic capacity and drain field location influence where wet rooms go and how drainage is handled, and a cold plunge's periodic water changes get planned rather than improvised. We design around your septic system's real limits during the free consultation, before any layout is drawn.
With engineered ventilation and vapor control designed into the build. The steam enclosure is sealed as its own vapor barrier, mechanical exhaust pulls humid air out of the suite, and surfaces near the sauna and plunge are detailed for moisture. In a large Homer Glen lower level, we also make sure conditioned air actually reaches the wellness zone.
That is the expectation we build to in Homer Glen. Clear cedar interiors, tile and stone selections that carry your home's palette downstairs, glass enclosures, heated floors, and lighting designed for the space rather than picked from a catalog. The itemized quote spells out every finish so you see exactly where the budget goes.
