Orland Park, Illinois
Orland Park might be the remodel capital of our service area. The village grew fast through the 80s and 90s, and thousands of those homes have finished basements from the same era, complete with wood paneling, drop ceilings, fluorescent boxes, and bars styled for a very different decade. Rather than tearing everything to the slab, we remodel what is there, pulling the dated surfaces, hanging drywall ceilings, modernizing the lighting and flooring, and rebuilding the bar as something you would actually photograph.
Because these remodels almost always involve electrical updates, and often plumbing, Orland Park requires permits, and we manage that process from application through final inspection. You start with a free in-home design consultation, get an itemized quote that shows exactly where the budget goes, and work with a licensed and insured crew for the 6 to 10 weeks a typical project takes. Financing is available on larger remodels. If your basement still looks like the day the first owner finished it, call (815) 217-9050 and let us walk it with you.
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 10 weeks of construction.
Timing. A huge share of the housing stock went up in the 80s and 90s, and basements finished then are now 30 to 40 years old. Paneling, drop ceilings, and old wiring were standard at the time. Those finishes have reached the end of their useful life at the same moment across the whole village.
Yes, completely. The village requires permits when electrical or plumbing work changes, which covers most genuine remodels, and we prepare the submittals and meet the inspectors ourselves. Homeowners never have to stand in line at the village hall. Permit fees appear as a clear line item in your quote.
Sometimes the structure is worth saving, and when it is, we reface it with new counters, paneling, lighting, and hardware. More often the layout itself is the problem, and rebuilding in the same footprint costs little more than a heavy reface. We give you both numbers in the itemized quote and let you choose.
