"Jakubek Inc did a dining room/kitchen remodel for us in July 2023, and I can not recommend them enough! Doing any type of construction in your home is always nerve racking. From the first phone call until the job as complete, Jakubek was professional, honest and reliable. David did an incredible job of communicating, and they got the job done in the exact time frame he predicted. They asked questions along the way to make sure everything was exactly how we wanted it, and everyone who worked on the job was kind and courteous. (Before and after pics attached) If I could give them six stars, I would!"

"Rob helped us with expanding our kitchen and installing a beam for a large kitchen remodel. Every step of the way he guided us through and was mindful about our budget. We’re so lucky to have found him and will be having him back to help with a bedroom renovation."

"Project: Remodeled 2 full bathrooms. Working with Re-Bath of Chicagoland from the beginning of the project to the end was a great experience. We had 2 full bathrooms remodeled. Old vanity, counters, mirrors, toilet, tub, showers, exhaust vent fans, and floor tile were replaced. Wallpaper was removed in one bathroom. All walls and ceilings were painted. I appreciated all the open communications between the staff and ourselves. Scott came to our house to discuss our bathroom remodeling needs. He provided samples for us to choose from. It was great to not have to go somewhere else to see samples. Re-bath worked with the village to get the necessary permits. Once the permits were obtained, Re-bath made my project a priority to get done. Re-Bath also requested to use our garage space to store the material that was needed for the project and to also work in. Kevin came by in the morning and evenings to review progress and answer any questions. Dan handled the project with his co-workers to complete it. Dan worked with the village to handle all of the inspections. Kevin worked with the Plumbers and Electricians that were required to complete the project per the permits. At the end of each day, Dan and Kevin would review the progress of the project and answered any questions that I had. We also discussed what would be done the next day, when, and who would be arriving the next day so that I always know who to expect. The staff made sure that the area in the house and garage were clean at the end of each day. If someone was going to be late, Dan would call and explain the change. Communication each day and throughout the project was excellent. It kept me informed and allowed me to understand each step that was being taken to make sure that the project was completed to my satisfaction. My wife and I are completely happy with how the project turned out. We would both highly recommend Re-Bath of Chicagoland to anyone."

FAQs for kitchen remodel projects in Skokie, 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.
