Lincoln Park homeowners turn to Wood Contracting for kitchen, bathroom, and whole-home remodeling, led by a contractor with more than 30 years of hands-on experience. We remodel kitchens, bathrooms, and whole homes across the neighborhood's Victorian greystones, brownstones, brick two-flats, coach houses, and lakefront condos. Bathrooms generally take 4 to 6 weeks and kitchens 6 to 10, with cost ranges in the summary below. We hold Illinois GC license TGC105501, are EPA Lead-Safe certified, carry full insurance, and handle city permits and any condo or association approvals your home calls for.
Lincoln Park Remodeling At a Glance
The quick version for Lincoln Park homeowners weighing a project:
- Kitchen remodels: $15,000 to $80,000+, depending on finishes and how much the layout or original infrastructure has to change.
- Bathroom remodels: $12,000 to $55,000+, from a powder room update to a full primary bathroom.
- Timelines: roughly 4 to 6 weeks for a bathroom, 6 to 10 for a kitchen, and 10 to 16 for a whole-home historic renovation.
- Older-home realities: knob-and-tube wiring, plaster-and-lath walls, balloon framing, and settled floors are common in the greystones and two-flats. We plan for them instead of discovering them late.
- Approvals: single-family homes need city permits; landmarked or historic-district blocks can add exterior review; condos and two-flats may add an association sign-off. We coordinate whichever applies.
- Licensed and insured: Illinois GC license TGC105501, EPA Lead-Safe certified (important in pre-1978 homes), fully insured.
- Getting started: a free consultation with Dillon, usually within the same week.
Why Lincoln Park Homeowners Trust Wood Contracting
In a neighborhood that runs from Victorian greystones and brownstones to coach houses and lakefront condos, choosing the right contractor for your area and your building type is critical. A crew that is great in a new condo can be lost inside a 120-year-old greystone, and the difference shows up the moment a wall opens. That is the work we have built our reputation on. Roughly 90% of our projects come from referrals and repeat clients, which is the clearest signal we can give you that Lincoln Park homeowners trust us with their homes.
Every project starts with Dillon Wood at the consultation, not a salesperson, so the person accountable for the result is with you from the first meeting.
That confidence comes from years inside these homes. We have remodeled Lincoln Park homes of nearly every era, from Victorian greystones and brick two-flats to coach houses and lakefront condos, including kitchen remodeling, bathroom remodeling, and full historic-home renovations. We know what tends to hide behind original plaster and what it takes to put a modern kitchen or bathroom into a vintage floor plan without losing the character that made you buy the home.
