What West Chicago kitchens usually need
Lead-safe work on older paint
Older paint is treated as possibly lead-based until tested; containment and HEPA cleanup are part of the job.
Opening up closed kitchens
A wall between kitchen and living space is a common request here; whether it can go depends on what it carries, which we check first.
Protecting single-family homes during work
Most homes here are single-family. We protect floors, set up dust barriers and keep the driveway and yard clear at the end of each day.

West Chicago kitchens: before and after
Before
AfterWest Chicago kitchen, two-story colonial from the 1990s: kitchen cabinet painting
The site: a two-story colonial from the 1990s in West Chicago. Before: white thermofoil cabinets peeling at the edges, oak trim. The main complaint was doors peeling at the edges. After: the same doors sprayed in deep navy, new brushed nickel bar pulls; counters and floor stayed as they were.

AfterKitchen Design & Layout Planning in a two-story colonial from the 1990s, West Chicago
A two-story colonial from the 1990s in West Chicago, a typical kitchen for West Chicago. Before: golden-oak cabinets with oak soffits above, white Corian-style solid surface with a yellowed seam and black appliances. The reason for the call: a cramped layout with nowhere to prep. The result: a new layout with an island, cabinets in light warm taupe, warm walnut butcher block counters and recessed lights and under-cabinet LED strips.

AfterBefore and after: a 1990s two-story colonial in West Chicago
This one is a 1990s two-story colonial in West Chicago. Before: honey-oak cathedral raised-panel cabinets with worn finish near the handles, brass knobs, almond laminate with a backsplash lip, beige sheet vinyl and a fluorescent box light in the ceiling. What bothered the owners most: tired laminate, old flooring and poor light. The result: cabinets in soft white with brushed nickel bar pulls, black honed granite counters, a white 2x8 tile in a vertical stack backsplash, gray wood-look porcelain plank flooring and recessed lights and under-cabinet LED strips.
Kitchen Remodeling in West Chicago →Questions from West Chicago homeowners
Do you work everywhere in West Chicago?
All of West Chicago — ZIP 60185 — and the towns next door: Winfield, Carol Stream, St. Charles.
Is a building permit required for a kitchen remodel in West Chicago?
Often, depending on the scope. In short: West Chicago requires a building permit for certain home improvement and remodeling projects; the city publishes an Additions & Remodeling permit guide with a submittal checklist. We tell you at the estimate and file the permit when one is needed with the Community Development Department.
Do contractors have to register with West Chicago?
All contractors and subcontractors working in West Chicago must be registered with the City (insurance, licensing and bonding are checked). We take care of it before work starts.
Does West Chicago have lead water service lines?
The City runs a Lead Service Line Replacement Project under the Illinois Lead Service Line Replacement and Notification Act. If yours is unconfirmed, a filter certified for lead reduction at the kitchen sink is a sensible step.
Do you work on restaurant kitchens in West Chicago?
Yes. Hood cleaning and installation, grease trap service and commercial kitchen remodels, scheduled around your service hours.
What happens at the in-home estimate?
We look at the kitchen, measure, check plumbing and wiring where it matters and talk through options. You get a written, itemized quote; nothing starts until you approve it.
Will you take a small repair?
Yes. Leaks, a stuck drawer, a broken dishwasher or a chipped countertop are all part of what we do.
How quickly can I get an estimate in West Chicago?
Usually within a few days. We set a time that works for you, measure on site and send a written, itemized quote.
Do you do kitchen design as well?
Yes. We plan the layout, cabinets, counters and lighting with you and show the plan before ordering, so the result fits how you cook and live.
How do you protect my West Chicago home during the work?
We cover floors and the path to the kitchen, contain dust and clean up every day. Old materials leave with us.
Can I replace just the cabinets or countertops?
Yes. Many kitchens only need a refresh: painted or refaced cabinets, a new countertop and backsplash, or new fixtures. We tell you honestly what is worth doing.
Which towns near West Chicago do you serve?
The same crews cover Winfield, Carol Stream, St. Charles, Bartlett and the rest of the area.
