Don’t Get the Same Kitchen, Bathroom, Basement, or Home as Everyone Else. We don’t believe in copy-and-paste designs, prefabricated shortcuts, or cookie-cutter layouts. Whether you’re updating a kitchen, remodeling a bathroom, finishing a basement, or renovating your entire home, your project is custom-designed to match your taste, your needs, and the way you live. Since 2011, no two spaces we’ve completed have ever been the same. That’s because we take the time to understand your vision and craft a design that’s entirely your own. From bold kitchens and spa-inspired bathrooms to fully finished basements and seamless home remodels, every project is different.
"Excellent… no regrets using 4 Ever Remodeling"

Chicagoland's Reliable Home Improvement Company servicing the City of Chicago and most suburbs. We specialize in full remodels of kitchens, bathrooms, condos and basements. We do not offer repair work or partial remodels. Celebrating 25 years in business.
"We are so happy with our new bathrooms. Mirek was great to work with and Mariusz (aka - Mario) was a superb craftsman with a wonderful sense of humor! The work was completed in roughly (7) weeks. We had both bathrooms totally gutted, galvanized pipes replaced with copper and new everything installed. Living in a condo, brought its own challenges to the project - insurance requirements, water turn-off scheduling, shorter hours when work could be done, etc., but with only a few glitches (due to other vendors) the project went very well. Mario was very patient with my questions - and requests. I highly recommend Homewise to anyone looking to do an extensive renovation project."
