Walsh Custom Homes is a family owned business that has operated in Chicago, and the surrounding suburbs for over the past 20 years. We specialize in second floor and rear additions. Please contact us today for a consultation on your next home improvement project, at your beautiful home. Thank you!!

"Jim is a nice enough person to work with if you do not have a timeline. Some of his subcontractors are great like flooring. Others, particularly his plumber, are terrible. Multiple code violations and callbacks to fix issues. My advice if you decide to use Jim is to not use allowances and make him provide a fixed price contract. He likes to make up the difference in his cheap quote to get your business by having most allowances categories come in much higher."

FAQs for addition to existing structure building service projects in Lincolnwood, IL

Building an in-law suite takes between two and seven months. Converting an existing basement, attic, or room can be done in about two months. Constructing a new addition or detached suite often takes four to five months for construction, plus one to two months for permits. The bigger the suite, the longer it will take. 

Yes, you can build an in-law suite in your backyard if you meet local building codes and zoning regulations. An in-law suite often occupies 300 to 800 square feet. Be sure to follow size restrictions, utility separations, and entrance requirements. Hiring a qualified contractor ensures you meet all regulatory requirements because they can pull permits, double-check local code, and gather other skilled pros to work on your suite. 

An in-law suite is a self-contained living space attached to—or detached from—your main home. Expect a bedroom, full bath, and a kitchenette or compact living area. The setup gives relatives privacy, doubles as a potential rental, and can lift your property value. To qualify as a legal dwelling, the suite must meet local building codes and zoning rules.
