"We had a great experience working with Top Bros construction and remodeling. They fully removed our tile and wood flooring and installed LVP that we had provided. They also installed new trim and baseboards throughout, which look great. They were timely and efficient. We are very happy with the outcome!"

"John Hutchins, founder and owner of Kent Kitchens, was professional and lovely to work with. I proposed a new kitchen design (total gut remodel), which also required a lot of electric and plumbing re-work. John measured everything and drew it out by hand; then mocked up an electronic graphic rendition. John and team were timely with correspondence, meetings, and finished my model in perfect time. I would absolutely hire his firm again for any remodeling he would do for me! Very happy with the performance of Kent Kitchens. Attached old and new kitchen photos."

"We had G&G paint our 25 year old oak kitchen cabinets, stairwell railings and oak doors. Our kitchen was completely transformed with hardly any inconvenience or mess. The paint finish is high quality and is very durable. Frank and his team are professional, personable and accommodating. This kitchen refresh was very reasonably priced. I will definitely use G&G for any upcoming projects in my home."

"JCG is amazing! My kitchen remodel is stunning. They did an exceptional job and delivered on time. The only minor delay was due to defective cabinetry which needed to be replaced (not their fault). They figured out a way to work around the cabinet install and completed the work in a timely fashion. The workmanship is exceptional, and I can't wait to have them help me renovate my master suite!"

"Above and Beyond Construction recently completed an almost whole-house renovation including a family room addition, a fully remodeled kitchen, relocated stairways, three bathrooms, and a finished basement. The addition seamlessly blends with the original spaces, making it feel like a natural extension of my home. The work is detailed and outstanding to the point that visitors do not know where the original 1911 house ends and the 2024 house begins. The highly skilled craftsmen matched the woodwork details of the original house to the new addition perfectly. Chester is easy to work with, has a positive outlook, and a good sense of humor. He will work with you to answer questions, provide suggestions, and address concerns throughout the renovation process. Above and Beyond transformed my little frame house from an outdated, decades-neglected, design and décor calamity left by the prior owners into an elegant space that honors tradition yet transcends centuries."

"First I asked Salvador Garcia with High Quality Painting LLC to paint our laundry room and the living room. His sons Luis and Emilio were so reliable and did such a perfectionist job, showing up every day on time, that I asked them to do the remodel of our main bathroom. We are so pleased with the attention to detail and careful work they did with the tile and floors, bathroom fixtures etc. They came for 12 days straight, which I so appreciated since we only had a 1/2 bath besides the one they were working on! We replaced everything in the bathroom and it's now the best room in the house! I would highly recommend them for their professionalism, high standards and reliability."

"Paul is by far the best contractor that we have ever worked with on any job in our home (and we've worked with 2 others in the past 2 years). Paul was tasked with a complete bathroom remodel in our condo in downtown Chicago. He gave us a reasonable quote when we first met to discuss the job and a very reasonable timeline to completion. The entire job was done within 8 weeks and any minor delays were very effectively communicated to us (and with good reason). Most importantly, Paul gained our trust throughout the job. He is responsive, honest, knowledgeable, punctual and generally a really nice guy who you trust to be in your home doing the job as promised. Definitely two thumbs up and we will be working with Paul again in the near future."

FAQs for kitchen remodel projects in Chicago, IL

Your galley kitchen needs adequate clearance around any island installation to maintain functionality. Most galley kitchens lack sufficient width for traditional islands, as these layouts prioritize efficiency in smaller spaces. 

If your kitchen has an unusual width, consult with a kitchen designer who can evaluate your specific dimensions and recommend appropriate solutions. For narrower spaces, consider alternatives like rolling carts or narrow work tables that provide additional surface area without permanently restricting movement.

Kitchen remodels require six to 10 weeks for completion, though timelines vary based on project scope and material availability. Simple updates like cabinet refinishing and countertop replacement might finish within a few weeks, while comprehensive renovations involving structural changes often extend beyond two months. 

Planning stages add approximately four weeks before construction begins. Maintaining clear communication with your contractor and ordering materials early helps prevent unnecessary delays.

Common errors include insufficient clearance between opposing countertops, inadequate lighting that creates shadowy work areas, and poor storage planning that leaves countertops cluttered. Some homeowners select oversized appliances that overwhelm the space or invest in expensive features that don't address fundamental workflow issues. 

Careful planning, accurate measurements, and consultation with experienced professionals help avoid these pitfalls and ensure your renovation successfully addresses your kitchen's specific challenges.

Whether expansion makes sense depends on your home's layout, your budget, and your long-term plans. Combining a galley kitchen with neighboring spaces creates more open, flexible layouts that many buyers prefer. However, removing walls involves substantial costs, particularly if they contain plumbing, electrical systems, or structural elements. 

Sometimes, optimizing your existing galley layout through better storage solutions and lighting proves more cost-effective than expansion. Consult with a contractor to evaluate specific costs for your situation.

Effective galley kitchen lighting combines multiple sources to eliminate shadows and create visual spaciousness. Overhead fixtures provide general illumination, while under-cabinet lighting illuminates work surfaces directly. Consider recessed ceiling fixtures that don't protrude into limited headspace. 

Lighting with dimming capabilities allows adjustment for different activities. Reflective surfaces like glass tile backsplashes or glossy cabinet finishes help bounce light throughout the space, reducing the corridor effect common in galley layouts.
